What I want is to have a display box and depending on what button I roll over it displays a different image. I want to use a switch statement. I know how to do it the long way but i was wondering if i could use a shortcut by having each button active another function which checks what varible is on and displaying that switch case.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI want to make a function that's only executable if the right frame is active in the animation.In this case, the frame 1 (and make all the rest frames have it's cursor normal):
ActionScript Code:
Mouse.hide();
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,follow);
function follow(evt:MouseEvent){
[code]....
I have 2 functions going in as3:
function blueDownBounce (e:MouseEvent):void {
var blueDownY:Tween = new Tween(blue, "y", Regular.easeOut, -49, -19, 1, true);
}
blue.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, blueDownBounce);
[code]....
I am trying to make it so that these functions are active after 3 seconds and they stay active for the whole time it is stopped on that frame after those 3 seconds. I know you have to make a timer and make it dependent on that timer but it wasn't working out well.
I am embedding an swf into an html page using the same code that flash outputs when you publish your movie.

I am working on a slide show where the slides overlap. When a new slide is accessed, it slightly overlaps the previously accessed one (which is scaled down and moved slightly to give the illusion that it is being pushed back). The problem occurs when I try to use swapDepths() to make the new active slide appear over the old active one, the 2 movie clips that this function is applied on pause and continually swap depths with each other for the remainder of the movie. I read in the documentation that all tweening stops when this function is called. Is there anyway to bypass this and achieve the effect that I am looking for?

View 5 Repliesif there is a way to make a linked object deactivate if another object appears above it in my swf file. Basically when mousing over the a image that covers the link object, the hot spot still works which give the impression that the image that is showing above it has a link. Btw I already know how to place the overlaying image on another timeline of which the linked object is not on, but that is not what I am looking for in this case, I actually need the linked object to remain on the same timeline as the overlay images.

View 4 RepliesI have a slideshow where you can click a button and it will bring you to a specific frame with an image on it. How can I code it so that the clicked button that represents the 'current' slide changes color until another button is clicked? When the other button is clicked, it will take on the 'current' color I bet this has been asked before, but I've only found responses for AS2.
View 3 RepliesI've got an infographic I'm working on, and every time I roll over an image (a ring) the alpha goes up to 100, then I roll out and it goes back to 50. That much I'm good with.
Then, I click on each one of them, and a movie clip (built inside of each ring/button) pops up and plays. Fair enough.
I've got a script (ugly, but it works!) that will hide all other buttons while this movie clip is playing. But, when I click to close it, I can't figure out a way to make them reappear. I tried putting visible = true again for all of them, but no dice.
The actionscript for it is right below.
I'm not sure if there's anything I can do to make it modal in AS3 or something like that. Or should I go ahead and set it up in a parent/child kind of way (not too well-versed in that regard.
All the buttons to click on are in the same layer and I'm not sure if making them different layers in Flash would make any difference.
stop();
ring1926.movie1926.visible = false;
// add a rollover to make the inside movieclip appear

I have a window component on my main timeline that gets called up on several instances.

My question is how do I keep those buttons from being active while the popup window is active?

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.
this is the function i want to turn in to a static function. just dont know how to make it a static function and call it from other classes. i think this would have its own file.

Any way to get this to work without using much more code? This is for a function that checks to see if a user is still logged into a website. I need the check to happen every time the user causes certain functions to run, like create topic, submit new post, etc. I could put the code, which is only a two-liner if/else statement in every function, but it would be nice to just call a single function. But that function would have to be able to cause the function that's calling it to return to get it to cease.

The easiest thing is if you look at my swf: [URL] Ive built a dynamic photo gallery which works from an XML database. The database contains the various gallery titles, the photo image paths and their captions.
The first page of the gallery is a thumbnail index page (lots of small preview images of the photos). The thumbnails load up one by one, they are only 1kb each but there are hundreds so takes some time. If a user clicks on one, the thumbnail movieclip is hidden with (._visible) and the photo page is shown, also with (._visible).
The problem is, the thumbnails are still being loaded in the background, so the chosen photo is not downloaded+shown until all the thumbnails have loaded. What kind of code do I need to place on the thumbnail's "onRelease" function to cancel the parent "make thumbnails" function ive made?

View 5 RepliesOkay in AS2 I had an array of Points. And I sorted it like this: myArray.sortOn(["x", "y"],[Array.NUMERIC, Array.NUMERIC]);I was changing the code over to AS3 and I thought I would change my array into a Vector of Points. But then I realized there isn't a sortOn method for Vectors.The sort method takes a compare function and I think I have that working. But I was wondering if there is a better or cleaner way of writing compare functions?[code]

I'm attempting to make a rewind function, but have no idea where to start.
I have a movie that spans over 60 frames and rotates. I would like the user to be able to click a button and make the movie rewind and tween to go to that frame.
For example, if the movie is on frame 55 and the user clicks a button, I want to movie to tween backwards (frame 54, frame 53, frame 52, etc etc) until it gets to frame 45.
I've got a lovely little drawing of a tree, and when I hover over it, the leaves turn from green to brown, which is exactly what I want it to do, however, I only want it to do it once.

Is there any way to make it only listen once? ie once it turns brown, it stays brown forever?[code]
