ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Turn A Picture Into A Button
Mar 14, 2011
I'm working on this app and I can't figure out how to turn an image into a button, and I can't figure what type of image does it need to be(PNG/JPEG, or something else). Also I'm using flash builder. e I can't find anything about this on the internet.
Maybe you know how do easy turn page. Picture will be load into swf files and with turn page effect they change when some time will pass (sorry for my english)
I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) { thisframe =+1 } [code]........
but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.
I have a FLA file with 4 layers 2 of the layers are Text Boxes 2 of them are masks to make the different words "Shine" Is there a way to make the whole file a button so when people click on it, it goes to a different page?
I was just wondering if there's a way to write code for a button so it will, e.g., make a movie clip visible with one click, then hide it with a second click?what I usually do is give the mc two frames, so on click one it goes to frame 2 while it changes the visibility or alpha, and on frame 2 sends it back to frame 1 while changing the mc back. But I would like the flexibility of doing it on the fly with code rather than have to fiddle with each mc.I tried doing it yesterday with an if/else if statement, like, "if alpha is 0, change it to 100, else if alpha is 100, change it to 0" but couldn't get it to work. But if that's the way to go I'll keep playing with it.
I'll start off by saying I'm a newbie, just putting that out there. How do you make a turn by turn multiplayer flash game? I don't know if an engine is made in AS3, PHP, Javascript, or whatever,I made my game already, it's just that it isn'tmultiplayer yet. Basically, there are lines, and each player crosses out a number of lines, and the last player to cross out a line is the loser. I want it where one user crosses out some lines, then presses End Turn, then the other does their turn and then presses End Turn to allow the other player to move his cursor. But how can I get both players to see the same frame and only have one player have the ability to move the cursor during a turn? Is there some easily adaptable multiplayer engine for flash for newbies out there
Is it possible to have one button the toggle my 'my_sound.setVolume();' between 0 and 100. I'm having a hard time getting the as correct, but here is my idea:
I have this textfield in wich i load some vars when a button is clicked. How can i make a sort of button of the loaded vars? So if i click on the first title; i go to the right txt-file!?
Here's the code so far:
code: //vars instellen //titels var title1:String = "Maan Fotografie"; var title2:String = "Vertigo-/zoomeffect-fotografie";
I have a bunch of areas on a map that I've turned into buttons. When the user does a MOUSE_OVER on a button, I'd like an info box to show up so they can see some information. So far, I've created my info boxes as movies clips with fade-in/out tweens between frames.
I am trying to make a button turn on/off a sound when pressed. I have tried to code it, but it does nothing everytime.
I have a sound in the library, with a linkage name of "sound" it is on the first frame in the main timeline. And i need a button to turn it off, and then on again.
I've come a long way with this sliding menu("Sliding menu.zip"). There's only one more thing that needs to be fixed. Can anyone tell me how to get the first movie clip button ("1") to be red when it arrives? When the user clicks on another button I want the red number one to turn black. It's sounds so simple but my mind is blank.

I'm trying to make a button with a picture I made in photoshop.. but the problem is that the background is transparent, I just want the main part to be clickable.
Here is an example.. I just want the purple part to be clickable. The box around that is the actually whole image. So how can I fix this?
I have some problems with editing my flash file. Currently, I have a small flash application in a folder, containing various kinds of files such as AS, SWF, FLA, HTML. What I want to do is to change the text inside one of the buttons in the application. After doing some reasearching, I realized that I should probably make some changes to the FLA file(Quiz.fla for example) since Quiz.fla is the only FLA file in the folder. Therefore, I opened it using Adobe Flash CS5.5, what what I found out is that the Quiz.fla file is really different from other FLA files. It only shows a plain background when I open it, without showing the actual interface of the flash application. It does contain all the buttons and contants under the Library section on the right side of Adobe Flash . When I try to change the text inside the button then save-publish, the newly published SWF file would just be a static picture of the button I've changed and everything else is gone.
i'm going to be workin on a simple website. i need to be able to scroll a cursor over an object/picure/button/whatever and have it change to what i desire when the cursor is over it. is there some simple code to do that or a tutorial to show me how?
I recently used the loadMovie action to load a .swf file to a target in the movie which it was being called from. Then I tried calling a picture to another target in the movie, but it did not load the picture as intended. I read about it on my book, but it didn't seem to work. Is there anyways on calling a picture into a target in the movie without placing the picture inside an swf file?
I have just been to a really nice website that has some really nice use of Flash on it.... I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.
I am trying to build a site that would give users the ability to upload a picture to a picture frame on my site. I would like AS3 to dynamically re-size, and upload the file from an upload bar under the frame.
I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.It must be some sort of actionscripting but how is it done?
In my following code "Btn.onRelease" doesn't work after "LoadImg()" was call, How can I solve this, because I want to detect a click on Btn once the new picture was loaded.
Here is my code : var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); mcLoader.addListener(this); function LoadImg() {mcLoader.loadClip("images/p0.jpg", Btn); }LoadImg(); Btn.onRelease = function(){trace("onRelease"); };
How can I create a button to control the width of a certain picture by just sliding the button on a scale in Flash 8? (I've found the actionscript for the button in a sample file in Flash MX. It looks like this:
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.
I am creating a Picture preview system, so far I have a movie clip with all of my images inside, a load of buttons that when pressed make the movie clip swap to the correct picture and stop there. All of this is fine, my issue is that I wantto place the Movie clip in question into a button, and depending on the particular frame the movie is showing, it will send the user to a different Website.
