I am unable to change alpha of movieclip on button click using as2.[code]...
View 1 Repliesi am developing one small imteractive game.in that i'm getting one difficulty.Difficulty is: i want to play a moviclip whenever i 'll click on button ,and .For that i hav applied logic in following way.
function onMouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.alpha=0; (alpha of 1st movieclip will 0 )
[code]......
i was making asimple menu .
ActionScript Code:
var currentLink:MovieClip = a_mc;
//buttons mode[code]...........
when i click on the button the alpha of this button will be 0.5 , when i click on another button the alpha of the previous button is still 0.5 , and so if i clicked on all buttons the alpha of all buttons will be 0.5,,,i didn't want that , i want when i click on the button , alpha return to 1 for the previous button .
Basically, I want to change the alpha value on my movieclip. I start my mc with an alpha of .08 (8%).
mc.alpha = .08;
What I then want to do is increment it to .9 (90%) and when it hits that, decrement it back to .08, and then when it hits that, increment it again to .9 etc.
I have tried
if(mc.alpha==.9){
mc.alpha -= .01;
}else{
mc.alpha += .01;
}
Ok. I am new again so I hope I am describing this correctly. I don't know the best way to do this but this is what I've dreamed up so far: I have a number of movie clips on my screen, all thumbnail sized images, each with an instance name (ex: tw_lifeoftheparty, tw_xmen, tw_xfiles, tw_diehard, etc.).
In each movieclip there are 2 layers: the thumbnail image(bottom layer) and a black border(top layer). The black border is an object named wk_border and isin each of the thumbnail movieclips.
I have given wk_border the same instance name in each thumbnail movieclip "border"

How can i change the alpha value of a movieclip through actionscript?
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to change an MCs alpha with actionscipt. the movies FPS is 30. Here's the as:
onClipEvent(load) {
var alpha = blue._alpha;
alpha = 50;
var forwardA = true;
var changeA = true;
[Code] .....
Btw, "blue" is the MC that I want to change the alpha of, and this code is on that MC.
I want to make a button to change the alpha of an instance but I dont know how to make it.
Thats what I want: When I click the button, then the movie clip appears (alpha 100)When I click the button again, then the movie clip disappears (alpha 0)
I am making a website/online gallery. I have all my buttons assigning a frame number or value eg. [code]...
and then have all different movie clips loading depending on the the 'frameno'
My problem is that i want the button alpha to change when you are on that page. So i am assuming it would be something along the lines of.[code]...
I have an .5 alpha layer that I want to fade out when any 1 of 5 buttons is clicked.
1) The alpha layer is on the screen, but its not at 50%, its solid
2) Its not fading when a button is clicked
3) Its not in the right position
4) I am getting an output error message that says:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::MovieClip@3f7e34c1 to colorbars.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()
at Colorwheel/goColor()[Colorwheel::frame1:17] (
This code is telling the int_btn to go to the alpha layer frame, which continues thru frames 1 and 8) the code they are referring to is on frame 1 with a button that is also on frame 8 that I don't want the mouse up function to affect the alpha layer. The 4 other buttons on frame 8 should affect the alpha layer. The code on frame 8 tells the mouse up function to fade out the alpha layer:
var colorscreen:colorbars = new colorbars;addChild(colorscreen) //this is working its the alpha layer mccolorscreen.x = 0;
//this is not workingcolorscreen.y = 51;
colorscreen.height = 513;colorscreen.width = 612;colorscreen.alpha = .5; //not working
// all buttons below work but wont fadeout the alpha layer
[Code] .....
How do I tell it not to listen to the int_btn on mouse up? Should I be using an array or enter_frame or remove event listener or use all three to achieve my goal of fading out the alpha layer when any of the 4 btns are clicked?
I have a MovieClip with white background and would like to change it's Background color and alpha settings at runtime. How can I?
View 1 RepliesWhen I mouse over a movieclip, I want its alpha level to change. Here's what I have:
ActionScript Code:
object.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverObject);
object.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutObject);
function mouseOverObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 100; }
} function mouseOutObject(e:MouseEvent){
if(!inventoryOpen){ e.currentTarget.alpha = 50; }
}
It does work, but the mouseover only registers when the cursor is over certain areas of the movieclip.
I do have four picture and 4 buttons which I need to place on the picture. Iam using the buttons to navigate through the pictures so that if I click button 3 - picture 3 shows up - NOT in a new frame.

raise the alpha of a movie clip (on a different layer) to 100%. (it is currently set to 0) within the movie clip (hazpop) is a button that will turn the alpha to zero (click to close window) so in theory (not as2) it should be: on mousedown alpha.hazpop=100 I've been combing the forums for days and no-one is talking about alpha.

I have 3 movieclips on a stage, all being instances of a square (mc_square01, mc_square02, mc_square03).What I want to do is on every reload to have a random movieclip to be the 'correct answer' - and this is the bit I'm struggling with.The way i'm testing this out is just to change the alpha of a movieclip on the stage.Here's my code....
var myArray:Array = [mc_square01, mc_square02, mc_square03];
mc_square01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER , chooseMe);

I am having problem making classes to communicate. I have main class which loads external swf that contains one image at this time. I want to change alpha for that image using button (created from library) from main swf. Don't know how, various methods I tried gave various error messages.
View 5 RepliesI am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.
View 4 RepliesI am creating a library like flash file for our game. I am using adobe flash cs5 with as3 and adobe indesign. I am still very new at flash(a real newbie) and i am wondering if anyone could help me in my problem.
i have a movieclip file named "mainPage". mainPage contains 6 buttons (with a cyrstal design) but lets focus only on 1 button. The 1st button contains the name Art_btn which calls the movieclip artBook when the button is clicked (which is my problem) . I have another movieclip named "artBook". the contents in my artBook are separated or written on each frames that could be called when clicked next or prev.
here is my prob. i dont know what is the right code that would call for artBook when Art_btn is clicked.i tried inserting codes such as loadMovie, gotoAndPlay and addChild but when I test it, the mainPage contents doesnt show up and it produces errors.

If I have say 7 buttons, each containing text that changes color on rollover using the "Up" "Over" and "Down" keyframes in the buttons' timeline. Is there a simple way to get the button's text to change color when clicked, stay that way, and then change back to the original color once one of the other 6 buttons are clicked?
The only thing I can come up with is writing pages of code for each button that changes the color of every other button regardless of whether it was active.
I want to design a music button for a game like geochallenge
View 1 Repliesby the way you need to make a symbol and need to export for ActionScript and class name is "ball". And the button instant name is:bButton. So here's the script I wrote so far.
var boundaryRight:Number = stage.stageWidth;
var boundaryLeft:Number = 0;
var balls:Array;[code]....
As you can see that code made the multiple ball go to left and looping over and over again. So here's what I want to do. I want to make a button and when I click the button it'll change direction like click and it change direction to right. I click it again and it'll go left again. How do I write the code for that?
can someone give me an idea how I would use a function to enlarge and change the alpha of a button but make it span over a period of time like it was an animation.a long time ago on gear78.com I think he used functions to make his buttons do what they did and it was badass. if I find another site I will post a link. if you don't know what the heck I am talking about tell me and I will try and explain it more.
View 2 RepliesI'm have made some buttons (movie clip) and when I click on it, I want a file (home.swf) to load in a loader (mx.contents.loader) and I want the other buttons to do the same, all load into the same loader. I have no Idea how to do that. The way I have it set up now, the home.swf will load over the entire screen and that is not what I want. I just want the content to load into the loader and have its content change once I click on the other buttons. Here is a copy and past of that I have at the moment, I'm using Flash 8 to do it all.

I'm trying to get a movieclip fill color to change once clicked. I'm able to get the mouseover and mouseout working. But the click state isn't working properly.Here's my code:
Code:
Code:
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onFolderOver, false, 0, true);
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onFolderOut, false, 0, true);
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showMovieclip, false, 0, true);[code]......
When I use the above code, nothing happens once clicked. I tried using the color property, but, although that made a color change (black),it wasn't the color I had indicated (white).What I have is a movieclip ("my_mc"). Inside the movieclip are other movieclips. When one is clicked, only that movieclip ("my_mc.movieclip01"), is highlighted.

How can i resize my stage or embedded swf by a button click event? My Code is not working and my stage is not resizing.
var mcStage:Stage; mcStage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.EXACT_FIT;mcStage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;mcStage.stageWidth= 980;
mcStage.stageHeight = 690;
I want a button's image to change upon click, but I need it to change between two images, one of which will always be on the button. The thing is, I want a button that says either "Running" or "Stopped" (each has its own image). When I click the button when it says "Running," the button image should change to "Stopped"; when I click the button when it says "Stopped" it would change to the button image for "Running." How can I do this?
