Because I'm working on an XML blog. But the thing is, Flash only supports 2880px and each blog movieClip is 500px so with 5 posts the swf will be filled and therefore I'd need to create a new XML file and new SWF file to continue the blog...
View 2 Repliesthis one is hard to explain but i want to be able to scroll a movieclip and have text and images scroll up or down without the main movie clip moving.Like for example the main movie clip is a square and the user scrolls down the movie clip and can see text and images that are visible in width and height of the square.
View 1 Repliesscroll a movieclip inside a swf with the browser scrollbar? I'm not talking about something like swfFit or so but actually controling a mc on stage while the rest of the swf stays in place? I've seen this done in a site that I don't remember the url to. Don't know though if they placed a div containing a swf on top of the "main" swf.
View 15 RepliesI have been searching for an answer to this and can't seem to find one for AS3:I have a scroll pane component that dynamically loads a movie clip from my library. This movie clip has buttons inside that I would like to access from my main timeline. I can't figure out what my target path should be (for AS3).In AS2 it appears that it would be something like this:scrollpaneName.spContentHolder.inside_btn...AS3 doesn't recognize spContentHolder though so it must be something different...
View 4 RepliesOk, i bought a scroller that works well scrolling content. With elasticity and stuff.
My problem is trying to access buttons inside the scroller.
I have an instance of the scroller component on stage and named it Scroller. I set the content in its component inspector. It loads a movieclip from the Library called Panel. Inside the Panel i have 2 buttons. button1 and button2. If i publish everything works fine.
Now i am not very good at AS3. How do i access the buttons. i've tried this among other bits and pieces i found on the web.
Scroller.Panel.button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, somefunction);
Can't get it to work. I know the Panel movie out of the library that the Scroller component loads needs to be somehow listened for but i don't have a clue.
how to access the buttons without getting an error

How do make a movieclip visible false when a scroll bar starts to scroll?

View 3 RepliesI have implemented a scroll pane component and content of it is a layout of images which are buttons.Scroll pane name is "mc_pane2"Content class is "MyContent"And the button's instance name is "FloraLytell_btn" (It is essensially an mc with TweenLite code in it for roll over and roll out effects) am not able to figure out what would be a code to access a button inside the scroll pane.

i am loading some thumbnails from an xml file into a movieclip using attachMovie() - each thumbnail loaded is in it's own MC inside the 'container' MC. everything works great but i need to be able to scroll the thumbnails b/c the number of thumbnails can change but the space they have to fit into cannot. make sense? if attach them to a scrollpane or a textarea instead of a MC it only shows the last thumnail loaded or iterated in the for loop.
Code:
articleNos = seasArts.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes.length;
var item_spacing = 55;
var item_count = 0;

I have a series of images (movie clips) inside a container movie clip.I need to somehow scroll those images within the clip left and right with buttons rather than a scroll bar.
View 7 RepliesI'm having an issue with scroll bars. I used the scroll bar component in flash and have scroll bars set up for my text fields. I have all the target names correctly. It plays perfectly when I test it in flash, the scroll bars show up with the text. No errors. I uploaded it to my server to test it and the text shows up but I can't scroll it, the bar shows up but the slider inside doesn't. I don't get any error messages from my browser either.
View 13 RepliesI am trying to activate a rollOver-function when the mouse rolls over a movieclip inside of a movieclip.On the main window (root), first you rollOver a button where a window shows up with more options (movieclips).From stage, my first movieclip is called "catapultas_read_more" which leads to amother movieclip called "pic1_mc". The label that is going to play when mouse over on pic1_mc is "rollOn".I tried this.gotoAndPlay("rollOn); directly inserted to the movieclip, but the movieclip inside pic1_mc never starts

I'm creating a menu bar that is a movieclip and inside the movieclip consists of the buttons.Now the menu bar is twice as WIDE as what is visible on the stage.The only part you can see is the text 'menu' on a bar.Then when the mouse hits the bar, it flies across the screen to the otherside of the bar where the menu buttons are.Now the menu bar does its animation over 20 frames - the last frame being the frame where the menu buttons are now visible.
On the last frame i have the 'stop;' code
On the first frame I have this code:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){

I have been using TweenLite for all of my easing. I was wondering what the code is for having a button inside a movieclip not active while the movieclip is tweening.Then when the movieclip does finish tweening the button then becomes active.

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

I have a movieClip button in my library that I dynamically add multiple instances of to the stage using code (so each instance has a unique name). The button has two frames, so it has a basic rollover effect (just changes color. To make the rollover work, I've had to dynamically add an event listener to each new instance of the movieclip, which triggers the rollover function.
I was wondering, instead of adding an event listener each time, can I somehow have an event listener within the movieclip to take care of the rollover? Or will it not make any difference to the number of event listeners, as it will still add a listener with each new instance of the clip?
I have a movie clip, circle_mc, and in it is embed another movie clip, point_mc. I made the circle draggable with this:

On the stage I have a movieclip called mc_back. I also have a movieclip on the stage called mc_content. Now, inside mc_content I have a bunch of code and some of it adds, or should add, an EventListener to mc_back as well as a a function that works when mc_back is pressed.
So basically, all code is written inside mc_content and some of it needs to interact with mc_back.
how to target mc_back from inside mc_content. Using stage.mc_back or root.mc_back doesn't work and Google should be my friend, but in this particular problem, it's acting more like my enemy.
Is there any ways to set a movie clip(item2) invisible but set another movie clip which located inside item2 visible?
