Aug 19, 2008

I have a movie with 5 movieclips named section1_mc, section2_mc, section3_mc, etcI want to advance to frames 1 - 5 by clicking in each of the movieclips. Do I need to add the onRelease to each of them, or is there a way to do it once for everybody.

Code:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Target Buttons That Are Nested 2 Levels And One More Thing?

May 12, 2011

The garage door has a chevrolet logo on it that is pulsating. I know how to make buttons but I need the garage door to become a button that when clicked the animation plays rather than it playing automatically.The top of the tool chest will be a button that plays the animation in reverse and the drawers are buttons that open to an email form for each.  But I don't know how to target these buttons because they are nested two levels below the main timeline.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons And Eventlistener Work Through Multiple Levels?

Feb 6, 2010

Working on a photography website and I've hit a speed bump. I have 5 separate movie clips for each page.on one section the Portfolio section, I have four buttons one for different areas of the Portfolio.The buttons are located within the movie clip.There's an eventlistener to direct to the appropriate frame within the portfolio movie clip. The problem is when I click on the portfolio button to go back to the main portfolio frame it does nothing. I get a trace statement but no action. I'm assuming that since the movie clip is already loaded its just staying at the same frame.how to get back to frame one of the portfolio movie clip.Here's the code:

frame 1, scene1

ActionScript Code:
//handle events for buttons
about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);[code]....

ActionScript 3.0 :: OOP: Multiple Classes - Add Functionality To The Buttons To Load Swfs Into Main Movie

Nov 2, 2009

I had to create a menu using array and I had to animate it. With some great expertise from people, I've accomplished that. But now I have a question about OOP, because I'm trying to add functionality to the buttons to load swfs into my main movie. Even though I strictly follow tutorials and exercises, I can't figure out how to reference a variable made in one class to another. For instance, I have index.as, navbar.as, and menubutton.as. I assume I need to add a loader to my index.as. But I can't trace the loader in my other classes. I've been told to effectively accomplish this, it is best to use custom event dispatchers. But I'm lost on how to use them.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Global Play And Pause Buttons?

Mar 28, 2006

I have 2 buttons (play and pause)...on my main movie. I would like for these 2 buttons to play and pause entire movie (different flash movies into 1).
On my play button I have mc = playbutton
And the as for this is the following:

Code:
on (release) {
play();
_root.pause._visible = true;
_root.playbutton._visible = false;
}
on my pause button I have mc = pause
and the as for this is the following:

Code:
on (release) {
stop();
_root.playbutton._visible = true;
_root.pause._visible = false;
}

On my 1st frame of my main movie I have the following as:
Code:
stop();
_root.playbutton._visible = true;
_root.pause._visible = false;

My problem is that when I upload this... and test it, its not working. I also tried by removing _root. to it, but it didn't work either. I need other .swf's to pause and play too when its called from the main movie where the buttons are.

New Sounds To All Buttons On The Site?

Jul 7, 2009

When I updated my Flash website I added new sounds to all buttons on the site. I also animated the main section buttons with a movie clip in the "over" frame. I added sound to the "down" frame of the animated buttons in the same manner that I added sound to the no n-animated buttons. When I click on one of the non-animated buttons and release, the complete sound plays.When I click on one of the animated buttons and release, the sound stops the instant I release the button. If I click on one of the animated buttons and do not release but continue to press the mouse button, the entire sound will play. How can I make the animated buttons behave like the non-animated buttons and play the entire sound even though the button is released?

IDE :: Buttons And Events - Simply Moving To New Page Within Site

Mar 24, 2009

I have seen instruction on event listeners to get a button to go to a URL or to make a movie pause and whatnot, but what I'm not finding is instruction on how to write the AS3 for a button that simply moves you to a new page within the site itself. Also, if it's a "goto" script, the page that I want it to go to, does that have to be a new scene? If so, how do I merge two scenes together? Essentially, you can look here for what I am trying to accomplish. [URL]

What we want to happen is when let's say the direct marketing button is clicked, we want the other buttons to slide offscreen the way they slid on screen and then a new set of buttons pertaining to the direct marketing will appear at the bottom the way the original buttons appeared at the beginning. Do I need to make these buttons sliding away and a new set of buttons sliding in on a new scene? How do I link the scenes together?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dead Remote Site Flash - None Of The Buttons Get The URL?

Oct 23, 2009

I'm working with an Actionscript 2.0 flash file (though I'm using CS4), trying to determine the cause of the following problem: The client has a flash menu on their own Site A, hosted on their own server. They have some dynamically generated pages on another server, Site B, and that server displays the information and creates a template by pulling the flash menu remotely from the original site's server, Site A.

The flash displays correctly, rollovers animate and work fine, but none of the buttons get the URL. They're just dead when clicked on, whether their supposed to go to a page on Site A OR Site B.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Up Site Buttons / Null Object Reference

Mar 30, 2010

I'm currently trying to build my first flash site.I have just set up the buttons which get to each 'section' via frame labels and the AS3 gotoAndStop function.These work without error until my 'sections' contain movieclips that are referenced in my actionscript layer... Because they do not exist in 'all frames', whenever I click my buttons I get the error, "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."It took me a while to understand and track down why I was getting this. I removed the short bit of code in my actionscripts layer that referenced the movieclips in each section (I had some custom scrollbars set up) and it worked without error.
