I figured out how I can create a roll over effect on one button so it fades in & out depending on if you are on it or not. I'm trying to create the same effect for my other 13 or so buttons & I can't seem to get it. I keep getting errors any way I try to code it. This is the code I have **trying to add the code for my first 2 thumbs"

I have 4 buttons, I need each button to fade the others out as the mouseover event occurs. I can get this to work if I add in one other button to the actionscript on one, but as soon as I add actionscript for another one I get errors.

I have 3 buttons going around in a circle, in the middle of this circle I want a specific image to fade in for each button when you roll across it then fade out when you move off the button. I also want the button itself to change colour slightly when you roll across it. I've not had much look so far without the use of actionscript, but even with using it I'm not getting very far, I also seem to have a problem where once I have an image appear on the rollover of abutton that the image becomes part of the button, ie instead of the image just appearin when you roll over the button it appears when you roll over where the image should be appearing.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a slide show which I would like work automatically (fade in and out) as well as being able to be prompted to switch via buttons... I know this is a super simple thing, but I cannot get all the buttons to work. The buttons are copies of the same instance with different instance names and are located at the 3 respective frames in timeline where the pieces of slideshow should fade in/out. I get the first set of buttons to work:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
controls.bttn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1);
function clickSection1 (evtObj:MouseEvent) {
// trace shows what's happening in the output window
trace ("The Button 1 was clicked!")
But when I add more buttons that are located later on in a timeline, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have a tweened movie which plays on a loop. A click on the image area stops the movie and the image fades nicely from alpha 100 to alpha 0. A second click brings the image back immediately to alpha 100 and the clip continues. I would like the movie image to fade back in from alpha0 to alpha 100 before it re-starts; (the reverse of the fade out). At the moment the re-appearence of the image is a crude jump. So far my ill informed tinkering has not worked.

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

I've got a function 'onIntroFinished' which starts two tweens (musicPlayerIntro and fullResetBtnIntro). After each tween, an eventlistener is added to that particular tween to see when it's ended, so it can call on another function to start a new tween. The first tweens complete within the 'onIntroFinished' function....however, they don't go on to start the second tween in the 'musicPlayerIntro2' and 'fullResetBtnIntro2' functions? The trace statements are getting called for the second tween functions, so they're getting through to that point, but why aren't the tweens starting? Ocassionally when I test it, the second tweens half work, fading out to 50% alpha, but then stop and stay visible, rather than fully fading out. Is this necessarilly the best way to do a fade In/fade out alpha tween?

I have two buttons in my flex app next to each other, ButtonA and ButtonB. When the user does a mouse roll-over on any of the two buttons, I want the roll-over skin (overSkin) to show on both buttons, i.e. Button A and Button B. I tried to do it using this when user rolled over Button B:
ButtonA.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER));
and then when the user rolled out of Button B I do:
ButtonA.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT));
Button I cannot do the same on Button A when the user rolls in/out. It causes an infinite loop resulting in stack overflow.
I have no experience with AS3 at all. I know exactly what I want to do in AS2. I simply want a user to roll over ObjectA and it will turn ObjectB's alpha to 100 so it is visible, and when rolled out it will turn invisible again.[code]Could someone please tell me what I would write to get this to happen in AS3? I understand I would need to put the script on a frame rather than on a button, but I just don't understand what I need to write exactly.

i'm a beginner to all this but I have an idea of what I want to do. I basically want my button to fade on with glow & underneath text to accompany the button, in the roll over state.Now I have managed to get it to work as a button with the glow work but I now need to get the fade part of the process working.

Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a button (Instance name: "go") and a MC (instance name: "fader"). Now, I want the MC to fade in on rollOut and fade out on rollOut.

View 3 RepliesI'm designing a site for a friend and I have a menu bar across the top with 6 buttons. I made your basic rollover with CSS, but now I'm asked if something can be done about the abrupt change from the down state to the rollover state. Not knowing much at all about Flash, I thought this would be pretty simple and a good way to get acquainted with the program. But after spending hours today rummaging through Google I'm considering digging my eyes out with a spoon. It seems that no tutorial quite tells me what I need to do, and when I try to adapt what I'm told to what I need, it all stops working. There seems to be a dozen different ways to do the same thing and now I'm just really confused. So here is what I need:
When you mouse over the button, it quickly transitions/fades into the highlight/rollover image. When you move the cursor away, it fades back to normal. And *possibly* a quick transition to another highlight on click.
I need to create in which two images fade in and fade out, and each of them must be clickable and hyperlink to a separate URL.I've got the fading going okay, but I cannot for the life of me get even a single button to work on it.

I am using Flash 8 - trying to get started by simply fading in/out using Alpha. I totally get on the first layer converting image to movie, inserting key frame and motion tween, selecting clip and changing alphato 0%. Where I am absolutely lost - is when it comes the second, third, fourth and fifth image. I have tried inserting new layers and repeating the steps - but for some reason 2-5 images do not transition like image one.
View 2 RepliesIm using the following bit of code to advance through frames at a set interval. Each frame consists of a different quote (text) and while this works fine I want to add in a fade effect so that for the last second of the frame the alpha of the frame reduces from 100 to 0.Here is the timer code im using:stop();function goNext(){gotoAndPlay(2);clearInterval(timer);}var timer = setInterval(goNext, 10000);

_root.caption.words = "shows";

how and where to nest the rest of the actions into what i have so far.
this works but repeatidly fades in and out. I need to know how stop this after one loop and where to insert the script.

What I'm trying to do is have an object go from 0% and fade to 100% when I move the mouse cursor over it.
For the life of me, I can't figure out the code to work this. I'm sure this is the easiest thing on the planet, but I've been working with AS for only about a week.
I've made the object a button symbol and given it an instance name of "btRed." I found the following code in the help file, but it isn't working.
function fadeBlock(event:MouseEvent):void {
btRed.alpha = 1;
btRed.addEventListener(MouseEvent.mouseOver, fadeBlock);
}
