ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash On Button Rollover Dynamic Text And Movieclip Appear?

Sep 25, 2010

When one of my buttons is rolled over, I want text and a movieclip to appear. When the button is no longer rolled over, I want the text and movieclip to disappear.The way that I was going to do this was to have anchor_mc as an anchor, and upon rollover have the movieclip play from inside the anchor (as its at the exact X & Y that its needed at) and dynamic text appear.

1) Is there an alternative way of doing the below, to avoid so many listeners?

2) Can the below functions be merged into one?I've tried merging them into one using IF statements, for example:

if(event.target.name == line1)
{
line_output.text = "This is a test made by the MonkeyTest that has previously messed up
And testing a new line";
gotoAndStop(2);
}

However this does not work, and gives an error.

3) I had to get the background to display by moving to the next frame. I could not work out how to get the textbox to appear at a specific XY, or how to get the textbox to disappear after a rollover. Is there a better way to do this, or is what I'm doing acceptable? (NOTE: Textbox is a Movieclip)

AS3 code is attached below.

Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Rollover Button With Dynamic Text On Top?

Mar 1, 2009

Whenever I am trying to do, the button rollover work, and put the dynamic text on top of it. The area outside the text is reacting to the rollover, but when I rollover on the text, I lost the rollover effect of the button under.The only way I have found to work around this, is to create another mc, invisible, on top and covering the button and create a script to activate the button rollover effect under... but is it the only way?

I don't have to do all this with static text, but the font react bad with rollovers or some other effects.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text In MovieClip Button To Work

Oct 12, 2010

I've been struggling for hours to get a MovieClip button to work. Perhaps I'm trying to get too fancy, having animations planned between the proper button states, but right now I'm just having troubles trying to get the label for my button set dynamically using a dynamic text field. The error message I'm getting is: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property btnLabel through a reference with static type <class-path>:MenuButton. I created a MovieClip symbol pointing to my class MenuButton. The symbol has 5 layers:

1) Actions which just includes stops on each proper state (ie: normal, over, down).

2) The 5 button states (ie: normal, normalToOver, over, overToNormal, down).

3) The label that is the button's name, which is only a DynamicText field with the name btnLabel.

4) Images of the button in each of the proper states, with extra frames to allow for tweening

5) A layer I was hoping to use as a hit-box. My MenuButton class is defined as follows:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text In Button Nested In MovieClip

Jan 23, 2010

I've made a flash movie which will load four movie clips at runtime. Actually, the number of movie clips will depend upon number of "NODE" in XML file. Keeping XML file thing aside, I've tried hardcoded values; 4. Let me describe you the structure very well: There is a main empty movie clip, instance name "mc_scroll" which will be only item on stage. In this movie clip, another movie clip whose identifier name is "blueMovie" will be loaded dynamically. Inside this "blueMovie" MC, there is a button instance name is "blueButton" and inside this button there is a "Dynamic Text" field instance name is "btn_text".

mc_scroll->blueMovie->blueButton->btn_text

Now, I can load 4 or any number of "blueMovie" inside "mc_scroll". But I also want to set the button text for each button inside each MC!! But its not working. Below is the code:

Code:
//INSIDE THE MAIN TIME LINE
for(i=0; i<4; i++) {
txt="blue"+i;
mc_scroll.attachMovie("blueMovie", txt, mc_scroll.getNextHighestDepth(), {_y:50*i+5, _x:5});
mc_scroll.txt.blueButton.btn_text.text = txt;
[Code] .....

How to assign the text dynamically which is inside a button and this button inside a MC which is created dynamically inside a main MC! I've attached the FLA also.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Dynamic Text Rollover?

Oct 29, 2010

I have a scrolling dynamic text box, in which i have alot of information. I am trying to create a rollover effect for just a couple of words within this.

eg. Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Link Bla Bla Bla Link Bla Bla Bla

I know how to create button rollovers but that seems a bit tedious if im going to constantly change the content and links.I have added links that work and have colored them to show users they are links but id like a simple rollOver color change to occur when the user navigates over them. I have seen this done in many flash sites and have been searching for days without any luck.

Do i need to call external CSS or an xml/txt file to do this as there is no option to add actionscripting to selected text within the box.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Images Accurately - Dynamic Button Rollover

May 4, 2006

As a test, I'm loading images (or references to images, more accurately) from an external XML file into Flash, each image representing where a thumbnail might appear in a portfolio, for example. I can get that to work fine. I have a couple of problems with the way the images appear, though. For one thing, when the 95 px X 95 px images are brought into the dynamically created 100 px X 100 px movieclips I have set for them, the JPGs stretch to fit... is this because I'm using the loadMovie method? The main difficulty I have, though, is my inability to get these individual movieclips containing JPG images to exhibit rollover and rollout behavior dynamically... without disturbing the image contained within.

Here's the code I have right now; my lame attempt at a dynamic rollover behavior is the for.. loop at the bottom, which is non-functional, by the way.
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
//according to "content2.xml," this would set the parser at "<projects>".
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
var thumbs:Array = new Array;
var description:Array = new Array;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Text Field To Be Invisible On Rollover And When Move Mouse Off It

Sep 28, 2010

Basically I need a dynamic text field to be invisible on rollover and when you move your mouse off it, it becomes visible again. I have it working (see code below) however when the cursor is over the field and the cursor moves slightly over the area (still keeping it invisible) the cursor flickers between the normal arrow pointer and the text cursor. Is there a way I can stop this? Is there a better way to do this rollover that would prevent it?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Trigger A Movieclip With A Rollover/rollout Button?

A friend of mine asked me to build a web site. Since I am a graphic illustrator and that I know a lot of After Effects, he tought that that would be easy for me building his site.Well, here I am, stuck with this flash problem (I am a nuke in actionScript). The guy wants an interactive map of the best country in the world, that is, Canada.When the users mouse hovers a province, a little rollover/rollout animation plays. Actually, it took me about three weeks to make it work, but it works.Now, this is wheretrying to figure out how to trigger a movieclip with a rollover/rollout button. When the users mouse hovers an important city (in this example, Ottawa, Ontario), on rollover, it should play the movieclip box_mc up to frame 40 and on rollout, play the rest of the movieclip

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rollover Button With Nested Movieclip Is Interfering With Hit Area

Dec 11, 2009

I have created a world map that has each region of the world as a rollover. When you rollover the US, for example, it turns red and a movieclip pops out to display some info...it's basically a graphic I created in Illustrator that is a rectangle with info written on it.
 
The rollover works fine and everything pops out, but when you move the cursor close to the popout, it thinks you have rolled off the US. When you hit the edge it pops in and out almost like it is blinking.
 
How can I make it so that they are one hit area? Here is some of the code:
 
na_mc.buttonMode=true; 
setChildIndex(na_mc,0); 
na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, onButtonOver);na_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, onButtonOut);
