ActionScript 3.0 :: Slideshow - Listener Working But Buttons Stop Functioning
Jun 4, 2010
I created a basic slideshow with a Next and Previous button. I attach this code in the first frame of the main timeline:
Code:
stop();
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveNext, false, 0, true);
function moveNext(e:MouseEvent):void {nextFrame();}
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePrev, false, 0, true);
function movePrev(e:MouseEvent):void {prevFrame();}
It works fine, until I get to the last frame of the timeline (10th frame in this case). Then both buttons cease functioning. Why? The listeners should still be working.

I cant get the buttons to turn off for the categories that have less than 26 images. he button instance names are imgB1, imgB2,etc... they are in a container that is called: mc,collection_menu with an instance name of: collection_Menu basically in the script bellow the: visible=false is not working, is this the right syntax... what is wrong here
Code:

I have three buttons and when I click the second one, the first stops working (e.g. no trace event and it won't go back to the frame "tab1") but the third still works. Then when I press the third button both the first and second no longer work. If I take out the gotoAndStop lines, the buttons work fine. The subsequent frames simply have stops on them.
b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b1Pressed);b2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b2Pressed);b3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,b3Pressed);
function b1Pressed(event:MouseEvent){ trace("b1 pressed");

I have 2 main movie clips, one for the menu bar and one for the content, there is then a movie clip within each one of those, one to hold the set of buttons, and one to hold the content movie clips. The menu bar has a control to flip between 2 sets of buttons. the viva content button works fine to begin with, but after the menu bar control is clicked, the content buttons stops working. Code is as Follows: All of the code (bar a few stop() flags on cirtain frames) is located on frame 1 of the root, which is the only frame on the root.
barControl.barContent.barUp.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barDown.addEventListener(Mou seEvent.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barMenu.vivaBtn.addEventList ener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vivaHandle);

I thought I had a handle on the timer class (even just a beginners understanding), but I'm having trouble with it.I have an event listener for the timer and it starts fine i get a delay, then a tween,but when I place a myTimer.stop();in the fuction the listener called (to stop it) it dosent stop.it will repeat placing the first image, and then call the first function again
......Wait its placing the first image in (a couple of lines before the start), so Its restarting the whole movie, not just the function?
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tweenone)
myTimer.start();
function tweenone (event:Event):void[code]...........

I have a SWF with two buttons that both direct users to new URLs. The first frame contains an FLV. During the playing of the FLV, the buttons work fine. When the FLV is complete, the SWF plays, resizing and moving the buttons. During the movement of the buttons I can click them and they work--while moving. But they don't work once the SWF reaches the last frame and stops. I need the buttons to work the whole time, especially at the end. [URL]

My site has a thumbnail gallery that loads larger images that then jump to sections containing flash video. Everything works great when I test my movie and all buttons work. But after clicking on one certain button (my "about" button in the header), all of a sudden the large image buttons stop working and won't jump to the sections. Although they do still display correctly when over, down,ect.

I used kirupas tutorial 'Complex Button RollOver/Rollout Effects' to make a menu that slides down when you roll over it. I have buttons inside that menu_mc - but they dont work.
My question is - does the on enter frame function prevent buttons from working?
Here is the code that is inside my menu_mc:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
prevFrame();

I have some sections that look for a (delayedAction) button press of >1 second or else it goes to a warning keyframe on the timeline. Once at the warning frame it stays for a couple seconds (slideIntervalNum) and then continues playing to the next frame which contains a variable telling it return to the initial frame it was at.IF the user taps the button for <1 while at the warning frame they back up another section in the timeline. This is all what i planned for but.
button for less than 1 sec and quickly moves back towards the beginning of the animation / timeline at some point something happens that makes it so that it does not want to obey the stop(); command at all! It will keep playing forwards frame by frame when no action is taken. And even if a button press of >1 sec is executed to stop and go to the next frame it still wont obey the stop(); command!!!some of my code that i am using:
//AT STARTUP:
stop();
var timeOut:Number;

I have a .fla file that consists of four images that appear, pause a few seconds, and disappear in sequence. Each image has an associated button that links to a different url. There are also four navigation buttons, should someone want to jump to a particular one of the images. My problem is, the navigation buttons use a gotoAndStop action to take the user to a specific frame. After one of those buttons is clicked, the buttons that link to the urls no longer work. They all work fine until a gotoAndStop action is called. The navigation buttons continue to work.

The problem is my buttons stop working after a certain point. Now I think it's because I need some kind of loop somewhere, but I'm not too sure. I've included a trace in the code so I know the button is not working anymore. (At least the function of what I want it to do).

I'm using the action script 3 code below to run my main menu buttons, there are 7 in total. The trouble I have is when a video is playing, the user might not stop a video playing before clicking on another main menu button. So the user could go to a different section with video still playing with the audio etc.
// News
content_mc.news_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, link1);
function link1(Event:MouseEvent):void {
content_mc.gotoAndPlay("news");
}
So I thought I'd write an if statement, that asks if video video is playing then stop(). Trouble is can't get one to work.

I have a container mc called lightBoxCont that I load a class into
Code:
lbx.initLightBox(12, Number(slideIndex), urls, titleText);
lightBoxCont.addChild(lbx);
when the user clicks on a thumbnail the user can close the lightbox by clicking on a button like this
Code:
this.removeChild(lightBoxCont);
This all works (or seems to). If the user then clicks on another thumbnail the light box appears again, but the buttons don't work. These were added in the class lightbox.
Interestingly if I trace teh number of children that lbx has I find that each time the user presses on a thumbnail it goes up. First time its about 30, next time its about 60, next time its 90 and so on.I think this is causing the problem with the buttons not working.

I have a flash file with a MC "wmc" which contains the following script to randomize labels on load as well as for next and prev buttons to function. I used the prev/next btn scipt in a previous file but for some reason the buttons are no longer functioning in this one. I must be missing something elementary. The actual file is available via the following link (see the "workmc" MovieClip in layer "wimages"):URL...[code]

I have created flash buttons for one of my websites but they do not work properly. Unless there is a (www) in the URL the buttons do not work. For example,If my address reads [url]...the buttons do not send you to the page when you click on them. However, if you go to [url]... the buttons when clicked send you to the pages.I have set all the links to [url]... but that does not stop a user to navigate to the site using [url].... instead of [url]....

Is it possible to have two buttons functioning at the same time?
For instance, let's say you've got a dynamically generated list, with clickable items, that you want to disappear when the user mouses off of it...
The way I have it set up now, the list exists on top of a large invisible button with something like
[AS] on(rollOut){
removeMovieClip("ludacris");
}[/AS]
The list items also have buttons so that when you click on them, they do some things... but when you mouse onto them, the "rollOut" button is triggered and it goes away.
So, is there a way to have two buttons functioning with one on top of the other?

i'm a flash newb, wrestling with actionscript 3 and ran into a problem with a drop down menu.the menu is composed of nested movie clips that open and close, and contain buttons that control a ui loader in scene 1. it seemed to be working all right until i realized that after opening and closing and reopening a submenu, the buttons that worked the first time stopped controlling the ui loader. since there aren't any error messages i'm kind of at a loss as to what needs fixing.

I'm developing a site that has different pages on different frames. My buttons work correctly, and go to the correct frame, however, if I press it twice, it jumps to another frame. I have the actions to stop at each frame and this is the code I am using for the navigation.
