ActionScript 3.0 :: Overlapping In Flash Movie
Jan 25, 2011
I have not used Flash for around 10 years so am fighting my way back in. For my website about mountain biking I have created a scrolling map withe buttons on in the correct locations that you will click and take you too the relevant page.
My problem is on the mouse over for the buttons text comes out of the side but if there is a button next to it the text comes out under the next button. How do I make it so that its not overlapped by anything. I did think about creating a layer at the top of my flash file and putting all of the text movies in it so that they would not be overlapped. Check out my work so far below, you can see what I mean if you mouse over the button to the bottom left.

when i tell Flash to load a movie in on top of the existing movie, how do I disable the links below while that movie is still loaded and then re-enable the links once it's closed.i.e - I'm clicking an image to load a enlarged version of that image directly over the top. if you accidentally click the mouse anywhere in that area it automatically reloads the same movie?Anyway to disable the level below?

I'm working on a game where clicking an object causes cartoon animals to appear. The animals stick around and do a little animation for about 5 seconds, before disappearing. I'm having a problem where if I click the object before the animal disappears, another appears on top of it.This is my code:
on (release) {
i = Math.ceil(Math.random()*3);
if (i == 1) {[code]...........
I'm trying to find a way to make it so "on release" is disabled for a set period of time once it executes, enough time to ensure the animal movie clip playing has disappeared.

I have a 5x5 grid of 25 movieClips in total. I am trying to shuffle them all randomly, but NEVER overlap.hen they have finished shuffling I still want a 5x5 grid of 25 movies, just shuffled around.
After much frustration I have decided to seek the help of the good people of Actionscript.org. I have had the audacity to include my zipped fla - it'll make more sense what is going wrong when you can see it unfold into the chaos that has got me so frustrated.

If two or move movie clips overlap, everything underneath the top movie clip does not seem to receive mouse events. I tried many things, including setting ".mouseEnabled = false;" on the top movie clip and its constituents, but it still eats up all mouse interaction. Is there a way around this? Listening to all mouse events and using hitTest is not an option in my case.

On my stage I have generated a series of Movie Clips at runtime. They drift around in a semi-random motion, causing them to occasionally overlap each other - is there any way of preventing them from doing this?

This only happens if I've just launched IE after being restarted and goes away once I refresh the page. I even added a jQuery $(document).ready function that sets a margin between the html and the flash content to add 1px of space when the page is loaded. It's so hard to figure out, because once I refresh the page, it goes away.########### SOLVED ###################### SOLVEDI set the flash output as a javascript var (actually json_encoded PHP output) and on document load inserted the object into the "flashContent" div with the jQuery.(document).ready event.

I have a weather widget that is flash and expandable. one of the issues i had is when I expand the widget, it wouldn't expand passed the flash container size, so most of the content is cut up. I increased the size of the flash container and that worked. The problem is that the I have another facebook widget that is below the weather widget and that got pushed a lot. I moved the facebook widget up with a negative margin and now they are aligned fine. BUT i can't interact with the facebook widget. and I think the reason is that it is actually behind the flash container. it works fine on ie but i am trying to get it to work on chrome. I have changed the z-index to make the facebook widget on top of the flash, but the flash started to appear behind the facebook now.[URL]...

audio from Flash CS3 Video overlapping stopping the FLVPlayback instance (which has an instance name of theVideo) when another button is clicked! How do I stop flv playback when user clicks a navigation button ...
I'm using the attached code to go from the main stage to one subset of .swf files (loaded movies) and I apparently have no problems with overlapping. Hell, the files even seem to unload themselves correctly. Then, when I go to my second subset of .swf files (with the exact same AS3 structure), which has a Flash Video file (made by the FLV Playback component), I get into an overlapping problem associated with the audio.How can I stop, cancel, or unload the audio when the file is clicked away from (the user selects another button on the mainstage)?

When outputting links dynamically, I cannot determine the Y-Pos dynamically. It will work find if my links are single lined. link_txt.y = i*20;
this will only work if the links are Single Lined. assuming they are 15px for height + 5 for spacing.
As soon as they are 2 lines, they overlap. I've tried different methods but unable to figure it out.

In Flash, I have a container with several overlapping children. When I give this container an alpha value of .5, some of the children can be seen behind others that overlap them. I would rather be able to take the whole thing as a composite image and blend it that way.

I have to display a multitude of labels on-screen without overlap.The label positions should be as close as possible to the features they describe. The features may be points, lines, or polygons on-screen (imagine any variety of map).I have to satisfy the following requirements in my application:labels must be positioned to avoid overposting (overlap) with other labels..labels must be positioned to avoid overlapping with other features (polygons and line segments) optimum position for a label is above and to the right of the feature they describe below and to the right is less acceptable least acceptable positions are to the left.I need to come up with a method for doing this.Before I just start attempting to do this at random, I am hoping someone here may have already done this and be able to give me some advice as to where to start.Basically, with the labels, I could use bounding boxes to compare them to each other. Although I don't know a good way to do this. With the line segments and polygons onscreen that they are labeling, I really don't have a clue what I should do to avoid overlap. I am hoping it won't require much more effort on top of avoiding the overlap of the labels themselves.
I think repulsion would work if I only had to deal with labels overlapping other labels. But if I have a line segment drawn across half the screen, I don't know how I can avoid overlap with that using the repulsion technique.The language I am using is Actionscript 3 and the Flex framework. I don't believe Flex has any layout manager classes like there are in Java Spring that can do this work for me.Anyway, links or suggestions would be welcome. I can allow for some brute force; I don't see how I can accomplish this otherwise.

I'm a beginner with this whole As3 lango and running into a couple of road blocks.I designed a flash site with a total of four pages. I have background music playing when at the homepage and continues to play when browsing the other three pages, but when I navigate back to the homepage the background music replays and overlaps itself. Is there a way I can stop the background from repeating itself every time I navigate back to the home page?

I have just done using the tutorial (url.....) for creating a XML Grid Image Gallery in Flash for my portfolio.Since I created my website entirely with flash cs5, I have put the script in a new action layer on top of one of the pages.It worked fine when I just tested that page, but when I clicked into other pages, the gallery wouldn't go away, I tried to put "stop();" in front of my script but still didn't work, everything overlapped with each other.The following is my script
PHP Code:
stop();
import fl.controls.ProgressBar;
import fl.transitions.Tween;[code].....

The following AS3 code is sometimes causing the audio to play multiple times, almost simultaneously like a crazy echo. It usually works ok with that URL but when I use a [URL]... it always freaks out. On rare occasions I think the issue has happened with local files even. I copied this code from somewhere else so I don't entirely understand it. Do you see a problem with this implementation or is Flash just crazy?

need a logia something like to paint some Objects: simply put some MCs. When the Mcs (are out of the Box range) and neat its easy to colour. see the Zip files attached:
Please see: paint_Non_Overlaping_MC_Works.fla paint_Non_Overlaping_MC_Works.swf When the Movie clips are overlapping or one placed above the other MC the objects are hard to paint. It Recognizes the Obeject as One, the Imported png converted to a MC. Please see: paint_Overlaping_MC_Not_Works.fla paint_Overlaping_MC_Not_Works.swf
Is there a possibility to make this work, like to make the MC Highlight on Mouse over and distinguish the objects when Overlapping? That's to say to colour the MCs when overlapping? What initially came to my mind is when mouse over the MC's to highlight so that we can drop the colour on it. In the ZIp file contains all the as2 codes.

I have a movie clip with hit zones over buttons. It looks like a cam corder and when you roll over them a thumb moves to that button and when you click. The thumb presses on the button. That all works great. I want to put buttons in the main scene over top of these that will change things on the screen when you click it. And get urls of the videos that I have on my website. But when I put the hitzones over other hitzones the ones in back dont work. Is there a way to make them both work or am I going to have to make everything contained in the movie clip? So in short can I have two buttons on top of each other that do two different things?

This seems like such an easy thing to do but it's driving me crazy. Sorry if this is a simple question. In a site I am building it is necessary to have a large movieclip overlaid over an image gallery. This movieclip controls scrolling so has a rollover listener attached, but of course the gallery pictures also need to have button actions. I cannot get them both working at the same time. How can I make it so that rolling over a movieclip doesn't disable the rollover for any movieclips underneath it? Here is a very simple example of the problem. Where the two buttons intersect, I want for the rollover to trigger them both: [URL]

I'm using the drawing API features to do the following: I created two different squares and want to use them as two different canvas to draw on, they should be on top of each other so for testing purpose I overlap them partially here, but somehow I'm having trouble when trying to draw on the overlapped areas. Has any one encountered this problem or know how to solve it?

I'm having some performance issues in certain areas of a flash game Im making.
Here's the situation: I have big movieclip containing a map that can be scrolled and scaled. There are some pannels with a bunch of MC buttons, controls, etc. on the right side of the stage. These are seperate from the map and stay in the same place.
Everything runs fine untill the large map is zoomed in and/or scrolled such that the right side buttons and stuff are overlapping them map. Then the framerate jumps down from a nice smooth 30 fps to about 3 fps while the map is moving. There are no issues with the map moving when they don't overlap.
Now the thing is, is that's there's no real interaction between the buttons and the map. No transparency or anything, in fact I'm perfectly happy with the map dissapearing behind a side pannel. There are only about 3 pannels that the screen drawing routine would have to worry about, as all the buttons rest on top of the pannels, so why is my performance taking such a hit?
(Hmmm. Actually I do have a lot of transparency, but each is on top of a solid background, and none interact with the map.)
