ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Dynamic Menu?

Jan 8, 2010

I got the first part to work. The only problem is when I click any buttons it produces errorTypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at resume_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()not sure what I have to do. All it's supposed to do is when you click a button the target movie clip plays frames 2 - 10 and the previous movie clip plays frame 11 - 20. Not sure what's the problem here.

ActionScript Code:
//variables
var curMC;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Value Smoothing - Creating A Dynamic Menu That When A Button Is Highlighted?

Apr 15, 2010

I need to give a value, then when I give another value, the actionscript goes to the new value slowly.So if I give 10, then I give 20, the value goes 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20. Basically I'm creating a dynamic menu that when a button is highlighted, a vine grows to the button. When you highlight the button next to it, the vine grows to the next button. I can't think of a way for this to work other than this value smoothing technique.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Dynamic Menu In Flash - Array Conversion

Dec 2, 2010

I've Googled & Binged to no avail. I'm trying to create a dynamic menu in Flash using PHP & MySQL and bring it into Flash using AS3 DataProvider. My menu works fine with a local Array, but I seem to have an issue with the Type being a String and not an Array, but how do I set it up properly so the types are correct? So I started with a typical, non-dynamic array and it works to create my menu:

[flash=]var items1:Array = [
{myClass:"SCI101", question:"What color is the sky?"},
{myClass:"MATH110", question:"What is the square root of 81?"},
{myClass:"SCI101", question:"How fast is the turtle?"},
{myClass:"SCI101", question:"How far is the Earth from Mars?"},
{myClass:"xXxXxXx", question:"xXxXxXx"},

Creating A Pull Down Menu?

Apr 22, 2010

I'm trying to create a pull down menu. Not one that drops down when rolled over but one that drops down when clicked and stays down until an item is selected. Once an item is selected or the menu is clicked out of it retracks again.

My strategy is to create a movie clip for the initial menu that when clicked jumps to another movie clip where ther menu is extracted and houses movie clip buttons that hightlight when rolled over and when clicked redirect to another movie clip related to the button that was selected.

is this the proper way to do this? And second: can you offer some direction for the action script?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Sub Menu?

Dec 28, 2010

Basically, I have a navigation bar with several buttons. When a button is pressed, a new sub navigation should be displayed in a different location. So on my main nav, I have mouse events, and on the click event, each button points to an xml file

function mouseClickEvent3(eve:MouseEvent):void
{
setLoader("XML/path.xml");
}

[code]....

Now all the menus get created no problem.  The problem is this.  One main button produces a sub menu with six buttons, which are displayed no problem. I then click on another main button which has 3 sub buttons. These 3 buttons replace the 3 buttons that the first button displayed, but the last three are not removed. Sometimes, only two buttons seem to get replaced.

What I really need to do is this.  Before any buttons are created, I need to somehow remove any buttons which currently exist.  I have tried things like this before the for each loop

for (var y:Number=0; y<i; y++){
removeChild(menuItem);
}

Nothing seems to work though.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A Xml Menu?

Jul 16, 2010

Its not exactly an xml menu, but I have imported the xml attributes and have aligned them and want them to act as movieclip

Code:
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite=true;
myXML.load("words.xml");

[code]...

The problem with this code is that I click on any of the text links (attributes from xml) , only the last text changes its color. I want it to function in a way, that when I click on a link.. that should change the colour and not the last one... I know why its working that way but can't figure a way out to correct the code. Here is the xml content.

Code:
<content>
<section name="about us" />
<section name="about you" />
<section name="about them" />
</content>

Whether I click on about us or about you or about them,in all cases about them changes its color from 0x00cc00 to 0x00ccc0

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A Start Menu

Jan 25, 2009

I assumed that the Idea was simple:one button on stage, when clicked, opens a list of buttons and when one of those is clicked, an action is carried out. I have all the tweens made, so in theory, the animation should work. I have the main button (start) set to control the show/hide of the main button plate:[code]which should play the animation and show the buttons (frame 16 of the movieclip "this.plate" which also has stop(); in the actions)All of the animations work the same way. the button performs 2 actions, when on frame 1 tells flash to play frame 8 and when on frame 16 tells flash to play frame 17 (which then loops back to frame 1 and waits stop(); The first menu worked until I added the submenus and now for some odd reason (debug and output give no errors) if I click the "start" button, nothing works.I have 6 sub menus, all are separate movieclips with instance names. the clips are named plate2 through plate 7 (plate is the main buttons movie clip in the parent level)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Xml Menu In Flash

Aug 21, 2009

I'm having a problem creating an xml menu for a personal flash site. The site that has a blog in the background. The blog updates from an xml document. But I want to make menu buttons out of words from the xml. I'd like to assign buttons to 4 random words from the xml (which would change each time I updated the xml). The catch is, I would only like to pick words that fall on the left side of the page (say between x = 55 to 250). The buttons would open an overlay on the same page. So 4 buttons on the left, with overlay to the right. Here is the current XML loading code in actionscript:

Creating Menu Navigation For Flash Project

Jan 14, 2010

I am an intermediate flash user and need to create navigation for my flash project. Basically what I have is one swf with several scenes and I need a small pop up menu with clickable buttons to jump to different scenes. I know scenes are not generally recommended, but I cannot load separate swfs due to technological constraints at my company. The way my project is set up is like one continuous movie that plays from start to finish. I don't need a player controls or anything. I have divided it into scenes to make it easier to work on the fla.

It starts and plays through to the end, one scene after the next. What I want is a small menu button at the bottom that when clicked pops open a list of buttons that can be clicked to jump to and play a different scene. It never stops or anything, just jumps to and plays the chosen scene. I have created a movieclip with a menu button and the pop up list with buttons. I can get the list to open and close, but it won't jump to a different scene. Is this because it is in a movieclip?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Dynamically Loaded Menu?

Feb 19, 2010

I'm creating / adapting a horizontally XML dynamically loaded menu. Load the text for each menu item from XML, and then I place this text in an array. Then later in my script I run loop through the array to add the menu items / text to the menu.I want the horizontal menu just to be a line of text so like:Menu item | Menu item two | Menu Item threeEach one gets put in a dynamic text box. I want to find out what the width of menu item one is so I can set the x position of the next menu item.I was thinking I could as I loop through and create each menu item, add the widths (using TextField.textWidth property) to an array and then use info in there to set the x position of the next menu item.

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Menu Component - Creating Subclass

Mar 18, 2004

I am in the progress of creating a XML menu component, and I am going well so far. My code is a bit messy and currently for the button press actions for the menu items I have done this below:
(a method used by Senocular in the xml menu tute)

Code:
Actions = Object();
Actions.loadGallery = function(xml, name) {
_root.transfer = new Object();
_root.transfer.galleryData = xml;
_root.transfer.galleryLabel = name;
[Code] .....

This is just sitting in my main class (called XMLMenuClass) and is not a prototype as you can see, I would like to know how to re-implement this as a class of its own, i.e. a subclass of the main class called MenuActions?
