I have a fully functioning scrollbar (MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_MOVE) and a fully functioning mouse wheel scroll. But I would like some code to move the scroll button according to my contents y position, when using the mouse wheel scroll.
I wrote a short AS program to create a tileList and it functions fine, but I need to be able to scroll the list of pics according to the position of the mouse with out actually moving the scroll bar.... example of what I mean: the farther to the right mouseX is on stage, the faster my tileList scrolls to the right, if mouseX moves to the left of the stage, so does the scroll bar...Here`s my code so far:
import flash.display.Sprite;import fl.controls.TileList;import fl.controls.ScrollBarDirection;import flash.text.TextFormat; var tlc:TileList;[code]........
I want to create a flash site where I have a long horizontal movie clip split into about five sections, each about 960px wide. The effect I want to achieve is when the user clicks on the button it will scroll horizontally to the specific section of the flash project. For example, if your on the home page and you click on the contact the movieclip will tween to the right until it reached the contact section of the long movieclip. And I also want it where if the user clicks on the home it'll scroll back to the home page. I can't seem to accomplish. I tried positioning with the x property and move right so many pixels. I'm thinking about setting like some coordinates or some kinds of reference points so when the button is clicked it will go to those specific points in the stage.
I am currently using the code below on a scroll that can go up and down depending on the ymouse. The problem I am having is that when the movie loads through html it will not scroll until you mouse over it. It's like the movie is paused. If I remove the onEnterFrame it scrolls fine without issue but the rest is broken and it basically does nothing but scroll. I do not have it checked to pause at start. It does preview fine within a flash preview.
I'm looking to a menu that scrolls vertically depending on the mouse position.I know that voetsjoeba has a cool scroller that does this, but loads XML and such. I'm just looking to scroll an MC up and down with easing depending on the mouse position.I like the way that the new XML thumbnail gallery that Kirupa put up scolls along the bottom, how about something like that?
I am setting up a small community, online based Radio Station where it shows a section for the schedule. I would like this schedule to show different listings, depending on what day of the week it is.
I am fairly new to ActionScript, therefore I do not yet understand the syntax properly and understand ActionScript 3.0 would be easier for myself to learn first, however my movie is quite big as it is and unless I can convert it to ActionScript 2.0 I'll need to learn how to do this.
i'm using the an actionscript for random movement that i found here... [URL] but my problem is that i need the object to flip horizontally depending on the direction it is moving... the object that is moving around is a bug, and i need it to face left if it's moving left or face right if it's moving right.
how I resize (or tween-resize) the size of a flash movie depending on its content.[URL]When you click on a new page, the stage size resizes depending on how large the page is.Do I have to use javascript to do this (because I can't find the javascript on the pier website to take a look at it).Or can I do this with actionscript?
is there anyway when i use scroll bar component in flash... how do i make it so that i can be controlled by your mouse scroll button.. thing.... ( if its possible )
I just made a scroll area with buttons and draggable items. All the code is written for vertical scrolling, the content I need to be scrolled is going to be horizontal. how can I rewrite this code to be horizontal scrolling? it seems like the scroll button (the one you drag along) doesn't stay confined to its scroll line either.
im new to actionscript 3. I have some problems in creating mouseover scroll. wat i want to do is to scroll the text (which was created as movie clip) when i mouse over on the button. and stop the scrolling when i mouse out. thou i have some examples on how to make it work with actionscript 1 and 2, i dunno how to change it to actionscript 3.
I am getting the following error message: "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at fl.containers::ScrollPane/endDrag()"
The problem occurs when I like this: I click a button on the Main Frame which takes me to frame #2. I go back to the Main Frame and then come back to the frame #2. When I go to Frame #2. I get the error message. I suspect the problem is occurring because I am not emptying the "scrollPane_1" component on exit. In the code below scrollPane_1 is a scroll pane component. This is occurring on all pages that I have the scroll pane on. Also the scroll pane component is on stage and has an instance name of "scrollPane_1".
This is an Air for iOS file. Here's the code. stop(); scrollPane_1.source= myText_1; scrollPane_1.setSize(600,585); bnt_home_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bnt_Goto_home_1); function bnt_Goto_home_1(event:MouseEvent):void { [Code] .....
I am very new to ActionScript and Flash development so excuse any incorrect terminology that I may use. I'm developing on Ubuntu, using AS3, and compiling with the flex sdk using the ANT tasks (flexTasks-4.0.0.10485).I am looking for a way to scroll content within a sprite. So, say I have a sprite that is 100px in height, and I add several child objects stacked on top of each other that exceed the sprite height, then I would like to display a scrollbar to enable scrolling through the children.Now I found fl.controls.ScrollBar, but when I attempt to import the class I receive the error:Error: Definition fl.controls:ScrollBar could not be found.I'm not sure why I am receiving this error, as this appears to be a valid AS 3 component according to the livedocs.Is there a scrollbar component in AS 3 that can be attached to a display container like a sprite?
I have several scenes in a Flash app; for some of them the Movie height is right while for others the content is very long so i would need to have scrollbars to let the user scroll down.Which is the correct way to handle it in this old version of Flash?
I'm using CS3 and i wrote a in actionscript 3 an .as file that sends a request to a server and gets as a response an xml file. After loading the xml i create dynamically i big number of questions each one of them with some possible choices for the user to select(Radio buttons). The problem is that i have about 40 questions with about 120 radio buttons to show the user but only 5 fit the screen and the others are not visible. Can anyone give me a help using scrollpane or something else so i can give the user a way to see all of the questions and radio buttons available?
I'm have made some buttons (movie clip) and when I click on it, I want a file (home.swf) to load in a loader (mx.contents.loader) and I want the other buttons to do the same, all load into the same loader. I have no Idea how to do that. The way I have it set up now, the home.swf will load over the entire screen and that is not what I want. I just want the content to load into the loader and have its content change once I click on the other buttons. Here is a copy and past of that I have at the moment, I'm using Flash 8 to do it all.
I have a movieclip that loads a scrollpane onto the stage. In that scroll pane I have some dynamic text boxes and some buttons. I cannot figure out how to reference those buttons or text boxes. For example, the instance name of the scroll pane is TAQ_Score then the content loaded into the scroll pane is TAQ_Score_Sheet. Then the instance name of the text box is TAQ_Score_Name.
So I assume the reference should be something like: TAQ_Score.TAQ_Score_Sheet.TAQ_Score_Name.text = MyVariable;This reference works fine outside of the scrollpane, but not when I put it into the scrollpane.
How do I make the scroll bar work for a movieclip with dynamic content.
var senderLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); var receiveLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); senderLoad.sendAndLoad("http://www.web.com/my_php.php",receiveLoad,"POST"); receiveLoad.onData = function(src) { var messageA:Array = src.split(",,,");
I'm trying to change event for mousewheel after leaving / entering flash content.
on flash - I want to scroll flash carousel on web - I want to scroll web content
My problem is:
Different browsers give different "focus" for flash element and therefore not properly triggered in events: Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER. I have JS triggered for MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_LEAVE but this seems not to work.
Also mouseWheel is attributed to the browser, not a flash object.
Firefox 4.x/5.0 - fires them properly, without clicking Chrome 12.0.742.112 - it fires after the grant of "focus" or click on the flash object, like IE 9.0.1
I'm wanting to make a vertical scrollbox (say, 150 px wide by 500 px high with a scrollbar) and where the content is defined by an XML file. The catch... I'd like each name in the list to become a button (or otherwise clickable) that opens a swf (also specified in the XML file). I have succeeded in making a static list where each "name button" was created manually... but I'm realizing my list is going to be hundreds of names and I'm thinking there must be a way to achieve this with XML. Here is the current version:
I'm using a ScrollPane to horizontally scroll a movie clip that's much larger than the stage. I've got it working just fine, but I need the scroll bar to appear in the middle of the content. That is to say that I need the scroll bar to appear in the center of the stage with the movieclip behind it extending above and below the scroll bar. Is there a way to do this with ScrollPane or another technique that will accomplish this?
I've tried customizing the component by changeing the position of the ScrollTumb skin by going into its movie clip. This positions the scrolling stuff where I want it, but the movieclip appears on top of it.
I have made a custom class which extends Sprite. This class is a vertical long rectangle with different contents inside. I used a mask in order to show only a part of this vertical "rectangle" (let's call it this way for clarity). Just at its side there's a scroll bar which has to deal with the scroll (up and down) of all this rectangle along its mask.
The problem is that I don't know how to set up the scrollbar in order to get it all working. I've made a function to set it up:
[Code]...
The scroll bar appears where I wanted, it's fully operative, but still it doesn't scroll up/down the container. From this point on, I don't know what to do in order to displace the container upwards/downwards at the same time the slider is displaced. Is there any Actionscript method to do that? If not, what is the formula?
follow the link [URL] any good tutorial to make this type of flash site (moving content with navigation links) inform me whether its available in mac.flash professional help or not?
I've been able to connect with a DB, use a server side ASP script to check a user name and password in the SQL Server DB and get back a score number.
login_bttn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,sendData,false,0,true); function sendData(event:MouseEvent):void{ var userName:String = username_txt.text;
autoscroll functionality in Flex2's DataGrid while dragging an element row in it. Is there such a functionality or not?
I mean, I have a DataGrid which contains a collection of rows. The collection is longer that the DataGrid could fit, hence there is a vertical scrollbar that allows to get to the rest of rows. I have enabled the functionality of moving-by-draging to be able to change the order of rows in the DataGrid (see the simple code below).
Now, let's say I want to move the first (topmost) row to the last (bottom) position of the collection. When the top row is displayed, the bottom one is not visible (not without moving the scrollbar). So when I drag the top row, I cannot drop it beyond the few currently visible rows. Surely I could drag a bit and then scroll to bottom and then drag a bit more, but that's not the point. The point is - is there a functionality of autoscroll implemented in Flex2 DataGrid, where the collection would scroll itself automatically to allow one to drag beyond the few visible rows?
In Adobe's official PDF document "Flex2 Developer's Guide", section "Using drag-and-drop with list-based controls" I've found this sentence:
Quote:
If the control has active scroll bars, hovering the mouse pointer over the controls top or bottom scrolls the contents.
Well, it suggests that there should be this functionality I ask about. But it doesn't work for me.
Here's the simple code that builds the DataGrid in Flex2, that fails to autoscroll, if you care to check it:
