ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Make A Button Purely
Mar 18, 2012
just like a title. I discovered that "buttonmode = true" is not enough to make a button that would act the same as "button symbol" in timeline, what properties should I set furthermore?
Background: I made my own scroll bar in AS3. That scroll bar uses a knob, that is a movie clip, I found that if I will enter inside that mc and make another symbol - "button" inside (from the same graphic) it will act very nice, BUT if I set that mc to "buttonmode" in AS, it works different. Yeah it has hand, but when I'm dragging it too fast, I'm often "losing" it. It looks like the graphic is not keeping pace, BUT (as I wrote before) if I will create a button inside that mc - it's perfectly glued to my cursor. So what should I code to get the same kind of button that I would get by entering mc and creating a button inside?

I am trying to implement some MVC-style UI components in Flex 4. I want to further separate the visual setup (and later runtime modification) of each element. Primarily, I want to keep the overall layout of the data like such in the MXML file that will USE the skin[code]...

I've been having trouble creating a mechanism to allow the user to select a span of time from a timeline. Basically i want them to be able to click and drag horizontally, and retrieve the start and end positions of that event.
I especially need to include the case where the event goes off the edge of the screen (even if the end position is snapped to the edge of the screen that's fine).
While doing all of this, I want to be able to draw a box that goes from the start of the event to the current position of the mouse, so that it's obvious which area if being selected.

I am familiar with the method of embedding a SWF file in Actionscript and then creating a variable and assigning a corresponding UI element from the SWF.Is it possible to create and place UI elements like TextFields and SimpleButtons purely with Actionscript without first creating them in a SWF and embedding it?

* I have a flash project called contact
* The document class is ContactClass
I am trying to make a sprite button with graphics and can't make it work. I have successfully added text fields so I know the path is correct. I suspected my code was correct and confirmed it should be, after reading several tutorials showing the process for creating sprite buttons with graphics. Anyway, I imported nearly every class on Earth, but certainly everything which needs to be. Stage is gray and 800x600.The graphics code by itself with appear, but not when linked to the sprite. Also, the sprite won't appear no matter what. Another interesting piece of the puzzle: nothing will trace, not even objects such as textfields which actually appear and function on the stage when I text the code.
public class ContactClass extends Sprite {
public function ContactClass() {
var home_btn:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]....

by 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?

I created a button using the following code,
Code:
on(release) {
attachMovie ("my_btn", "my_btn", _root.getNextHighestDepth(),{_x:34, _y:158});
}
Now I am trying to make the button gotoAndStop on a scene on release. I tried this code,
Code:
onEnterFrame
my_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop ("SettingsPanel")
}

I have a function that executes when a button is pressed:
btnRandomAll.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandlerBtnRandomAll);
function clickHandlerBtnRandomAll(e:Event)
{
...but, I need it to also execute once, upon the file loading.

I 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.

I'm trying to make buttons that involve a character pointing to indicate interaction.When a button is interacted with (mouse over or down) the character's arm points to that particular button. I separated his body, so that it remains constant on the main stage, no matter which button is being interacted with.The problem is, when the user is not mousing over or clicking down on any button, the character has no arms (since only his body remains constant)!How do I resolve this?The only thing I thought of so far is if there's any way to create an up button state that includes the arm (right now I have nothing for mouse up) THAT ENDS when the next button is interacted with. Is that possible? If I put the arm in the up state (in addition to mouse over and down) it stays when the interaction is over, which poses a problem when the user interacts with the next button (the character ends up with double the arms since each button introduces a different set of arms pointing towards that particular button).

I simply don't know the syntax.I am attempting to make something similar to a Jeopardy board for a Christmas party at work. I have a grid of buttons that correspond to different questions. The function would be as follows: The button "eng_1" (as in "English for 100 points)is clicked.This makes the button "eng_1_q" (as in :English 100 question) visible, so the question can now be read.The button "eng_1_q" is clicked, and that button is then made invisible. The question can not be seen, now we have returned to the board.The original "eng_1" is now a different colour (or left in it's "down" state) to show that the question has already been asked (not sure if this should be part of the function of "eng_1" or "eng_1_q").My idea would be something like this.
eng_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,][code]...........
So once again, I'm just unsure of the syntax.

I've made a mask with a FLVPlayback inside and with a sliding bar that appears when I make rollover in the FLVPlayback. All working well. I want to put some simple controls in the sliding bar like pause or play, but I can't access the buttons because they are inside a first button ( the FLVPlayback ) that triggers the sliding bar. How can I make to have a button inside another button area?

I have a simple question for someone --Im very new at Flash. I have a box and 3 different colored buttons at the left.

Here is my code to turn the box red. What line would i add to have the word Red show up under the box when the red button is clicked. Do I type the word Red and make it a movie clip? Then what?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to make an mp3 button.I've created a movieclip that looks like a play button at frame 1, and at frame 5 it's a stop button.So once the clip is pressed on the main timeline, play the sound play and the clip should then go to the last frame(5) to display the stop button.When the clip is pressed again(at the stop button)the sound should stop stop, and the clip should return to the first frame.Here's what I have so far.....
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.media.Sound
var mylink =location file directory etc...;[code]....
I was thinking I need to remove the listener at some point but I'm not sure where.
