I need to disable a button once the user has clicked it! I also need the colour of the button to change once it has been clicked as well (I need it to just grey out - not sure if this can be solved using actionscript??) The only method I could think of of accomplishing this is to put each button in their own UILoader, but I'm hoping there is a simpler method!?

View 5 RepliesI have created on scroll box w/two scroll bars; one on each side of the scroll box (don't ask me why, its necessary). I have both scroll bars working; each scroll bar button/bar moves the text in the .y dir. The interesting thing is that when I use the right scroll bar it works until I try to use the left scroll bar. When I use the left scroll bar it only moves the text half the distance, and if I go back to the right scroll bar, it does the same thing. Like the math has somehow intersect and causes each of the Bar/Buttons to go only half the distance. What I think I need to do is add a conditional statement that says that if scrollbarbutton01 is click, scrollbarbutton02 is disabled (null or removeEventListener) and visa versa.

I'll explain the problem I have having as Im sure there are a few solutions, I have a flash website which has four main links, HOME, SERVICES, BLOG, CONTACT.
When the services button is pressed 5 more buttons come in from the right hand side each is slightly delayed to give a stacking effect.
The problem is if the user clicks on the Services button and then quickly presses the another button the service buttons tween in onto the wrong page!
The solution I am thinking is to set a time delay on the services button so when it is pressed the other buttons are delayed for a few seconds to give time for all teh serivecs buttons to tween in.
If so how could I implement it? I have bene trying many things to get it to work, I almost have it, but the delay only works the first time the button is pressed and I cant seem to get the timer to reset!

View 3 RepliesI've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?
View 2 RepliesI have a flash shooter game and after a user shoots a bottle, i play the destroy animation and remove it from the screen. The problem is when the user click too fast, like superman fast it enters on the method twice, no matter what.
Here is the code:
public function bottleHasClicked(bottle : BottleBase) : void {
bottle.mouseEnabled = false;
collectedBottles++;
[Code]....
The first thing i do is to disable the object mouse, and it still happens. I only enable it when im gonna show the bottles again.

View 3 RepliesI would like the native Flex checkBox to change state only, when the box is clicked. If user clicks the label the state shouldn't change.
The click event cannot be muted as it is utilized in parenting components.
how to obtain such functionality? How to detect, that user has clicked the label?
not sure how difficult this is going to be, but I have 30 movie clips, which will all be sequentially numbered. (pos1, pos2, pos3......pos30). They will all have the same functions, with the only change being the number. I know there is a more efficient way to write this code using arrays, but I will need help with it. I would rather have 10 lines of code than 150. I also need help with writing the code, that will disable all other movie clips, once the first one is clicked. Also, not sure how tricky the javascript part will be. Below is the code i am trying to achieve, but the long version.

I have a menu with five nav buttons (atcually MovieClips). Each has three frame labels: "on", "stay", and "off". The rollover and rollout animations play flawlessly, but I'm at a loss as to how to give each button a sticky "active" state. I'd like the button to stay in it's active state until another button is clicked, then I would like it to play it's "off" animation. Each MC has this code:

View 1 Replieshow to write a actionscript code for a button when the button is clicked it should move to the nextframe.
// About and smile1 button scripts
stop();
_root.smile1.onPress = function() {
if (mouse_over_smile1) {
[code]....
i have given 3 functions as onEnterFrame,onPress,onRelease. i tried all these but didnt get the result.smile1,smile2,smile3 are button instances which are declared on the monie clip.my main thing is i hav a button, when i click on that button it should go the next frame which i have declared in "gotoAndPlay(6)" method.
Anyway what I need to do is have a movie clip finish playing when a button is clicked and then go to the frame label associated with the button. I hope I'm explaining myself ok. So if I had say 4 buttons Home Gallery About Contact If Contact is clicked then I want the Home page to play (Which is a fade out) and then go to Contact Page (which will fade in). Then If Gallery is clicked then I want Contact to fade out and then go to Gallery page and fade in.
View 6 RepliesI am trying to make a button in such a way so that after you clicked on it, the button will change colour, indicating that the link has been visited.
View 3 RepliesI want to make a button (or graphic) active and visible if another button is clicked. But it must be invisible and unclickable before the other button is clicked. (this is a "find the differences between the 2 pictures game" and I want circles to appear over the differences that the user finds but only after he clicks it)
The button (or graphic) I want to become active has instance name of "sockcircle_btn" The button you click to make it appear is called "sock_btn"
In the first frame of the sockcircle_btn layer, this is my code
sockcircle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,sockcircledisable);
function sockcircledisable(evt:MouseEvent):void{
sockcircle_btn.mouseEnabled = false;
}
In the sock_btn frame (frame 3) this is my code
sock_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,sockcircleenable);
function sockcircleenable(evt:MouseEvent):void{
sockcircle_btn.mouseEnabled = true;
}
The file is setup to loop between frames 2-3. But the sockcircle_btn never enables even when sock_btn is clicked.
Pretend a button is selected - when that button is selected it goes to the active frame which shows that the button is selected. When you click another button it currently resets itself - BUT - I want it to go to and play frame "mouse_out" and than reset itself. Below is the code I am currently working wtih:
