ActionScript 3.0 :: Instantiating UILoader In Button Click Function?
Jan 17, 2009
I have a weird issue with actionscript 3.0 and I wanted to see if anyone knows what might be going on.I create a UILoader in the root layer. Then on a button click, I set it's properties and once it's loaded, I set the size and all that. It works fine.Then I try to instantiate the UILoader in the button click method and the picture loads up enormous. It never happens when I instantiate the root layer. It always happens when I instantiate it in the button click method.The code is below. Does anyone know why it would do this? I traced all the properties I could think of (xscale, yscale, height, width for both the containing movieclip and the UILoader and they are the same regardless of where it's instantiated
var myStage:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var stageItem:UILoader = new UILoader();
//Button click function
[code].....

I have an index page with several buttons on. When the buttons are clicked, it takes the user to a different point in the timeline and loads the appropriate swf in the UILOader I have on stage.Everything was working fine, but it has suddenly decided to stop working. Now if you click a button on the index page, it loads the relevant swf just fine, but when you go back to the index page and click a different button, the UILoader will not show the corresponding swf and just appear blank, although I know its there as I can hear the sound of the swf playing! I'm not sure if its simply something blocking the swf, but I don't even know what it is! I'm using addChild to add little panels to the screen when a button is pressed, but they are hardly big enough to cover the whole of the UILoader!

I created a movieclip animation that only activates when i rollover the movieclip button. I further extended the frames and created another frame animation that i active only when user clicks the button. So i have a roll over/out animation and click animation in the same movieclip in the same layer. Now the problem is that when i click on the button, its supposed to take me to another page, and it does, unfortunately without the click animation. That means after i click on the button its supposed to first finish the click animation and then go to another page. But when i click, it takes me to another page without showing the click animation
SO I tried the If function, but i seem to make a mistake somewhere and i dont know what to do. Now there is no error in script, but onw there is a problem in link, the button finishes the click animation but it does not go to the tarrgeted"about" frame. here's the code

I've got a confusing situation which wont seem to fix itself basically I have my main class, my iContent class (which will hold each page and have functions for all pages), and my individual pages.
The homepage is instantiated by calling the iContentClass.goHome method in the main document class. The home page contains a button to go on to the next page. This button references the goColourBrowserPage function within the iContentClass, which removes the child (being the home page) and attempts to add a child (colourBrowserPage).
For some reason this doesnt work! It doesnt seem to add the child and wont let me remove the child of the home page! I've been sitting here for 3 hours trying to work it but to no avail!

I am still new to swish and flash and the script confuses me at times. I am doing it more for a hobby and to create interactive programs for my daughter to help her learn. I have made a parking ticket machine to help her tell the time and to count money. The problem I am having at the moment is that I am trying to make one button add 30seconds to a text box total every time it is clicked (for example click1 = 00:30, then click2 = 01:00, then click3 = 01:30 and so on). The problem I am having is that I have made an else/if statement to do just this but every time I click the button it just jumps to the last else/if and shows that total. I am trying to think logically but I may be making things more complicated or maybe the scripting is wrong and I need to try something else. Here is the script I have made for you to see and hopefully someone can tell me what I have done wrong.

I have a button to increase the scale of few items. It's suppose to increase the size with every single click. When I click the button continuously having the mouse unmoved and over, it wont increase the size. But if I rool out of the button between every click, then I works. I need to make button function with every click.
CURRENT CODE:
on (press) {
if(this._root.gmb_mc.rotate_mc3a._width <= 50){
this._root.gmb_mc.rotate_mc3a._xscale += 7;
this._root.gmb_mc.rotate_mc3a._yscale += 7;
}}

I have issues with the buttons working from the SWF file which is brought into the main flash site via UILoader.
[Code]...
I gathered that it is most probably due to the fact that I have constructed a button in the improper way.I tried to redo a button but it was the same result.I would like to try to access it through the main timeline. What would be the whole block of code to put a function on the button located inside an external SWF which is called in via a UILoader?

Basically, I have a FLVplayer called vidPlayer and 3 dynamic text fields that put text in when they are clicked. I want to be able to keep the button clicked in the 'over' state, and to do this I believe arrays are needed? Also, an array might be easier, as there is a lot of code to sift through.
Below is the code for the buttons in my flv;
Select all//video player script
function fenwick(event:MouseEvent):void{
vidPlayer.source = "flvs/adver/Fenwick.flv";
}function moneyshopGold(event:MouseEvent):void{
vidPlayer.source = "flvs/adver/MS_Liquid_Gold.flv";

I'm trying to combine a mc button's drag functionality with a double click functionality.
I have the actionscript to do both - with the drag aspect working fine - but I'm having problems getting the double click to work too - basically meshing the respective scripts.
Tried variations on combining the scripts but nothing working so far
The script is below
//double click: set initial variables
click = false;
//function for the button press

i am not an action script developer nor flash designer, i just want to have a small action script sample that i will edit a little to make it interact with my javascript code. By the way, i want to have a button and a label on a flash form, when the user clicks on this button the onclick event will call another function 'setText for example' this setText() function will change the label text. So i think the code will be something like this:
[Code]....
I managed to put the button and the label i want just the code i will write to make this work.

I have a button labeled 'blueButton' and I'd like to use an anonymous function to handle the click, like so:
blueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace( "-----click detected-----" );
// now do other stuff
});
Problem is, the click handler is called multiple times per click. The number of times called seems to be random (sometimes 2, sometimes 4, sometimes 3 etc). could I be missing something in my code, or maybe I set up the button wrong?
also I noticed that it seems to always get called once on the first click. After the first click is when it starts getting called additional times, maybe that has something to do with it?

Basically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
// Import the Menu control.
import mx.controls.Menu;

I 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.

I'm doing a basic site with frame labels on the main timeline whose name corresponds to the btn names. A simple otoAndPlay(evt.target.name); I have a basic navigation setup of 7 mcs with mouse eventlisteners for CLICK, ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT.
Example:
prepare.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);plans.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);retire.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
[Code]....
Does anyone know a better way to do this so when my mcs are clicked they display the rollover content/art? In essence I'm trying to achieve that when the user clicks a btn it goes to that "page" and the corresponding btn stays highlighted. Pretty standard web navigation technique but I just don't know what the best way to do this in flash is and with how my site is setup.

I have a test button i would like to have play a movie where a graphic expands. Once stopped, I would like to be able to click that same button and have the graphic go backwards. I would prefer to have timeline reverse, rather than lengthen the timeline of the mc because then i have to line up the start and end, and if one changes, i have to remember to change the other.
btn_test.onRelease = function(){ if (_root.adinstance._currentframe != 1) { while(_root.adinstance._currentframe != 1) { _root.adinstance.prevFrame(); else { _root.adinstance.play(); }}

This is a simplified version on the code, I'm sure its in this chunk somewhere.

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.
