ActionScript 3.0 :: More Than One Function One Thing THEN Do Another?

Jan 18, 2009

I'm wondering how you add more than one function to a button? When the button is clicked I want a tween to be carried out which brings a image onto the stage, then once that is there I want each button of a menu to tween in one after another. How can I do this with actionscript?

I've tried just adding the tweens all under one function but they are carried out all together rather than one after another..

Mouse Over The 2 Buttons The Whole Thing Disappears?

Mar 26, 2009

When you click on "works" on my site it reveals a menu with 2 other buttons, but when you try to mouse over the 2 buttons the whole thing dissapears. What I've done is set the "works" button to jump ahead in the animation to reveal the menu which is actually one large button with the 2 other buttons on top. The large button is set to - on rollout goto and play frame 1.

Actionscript :: Can MouseEvents Target More Than One Thing At Once

Apr 11, 2009

I have a special canvas class covering my entire stage, and a bunch of Sprite hotspots on the layer below. If I put the hotspots on the same layer as my canvas, the canvas does not register MOUSE_DOWN events if my mouse is inside one of the hotspots, since the hotspots are targeted instead. However, if I keep the hotspots on the lower layer, the canvas handles all the MouseEvents. Is there any way to make MouseEvents target more than one thing, so that both the canvas and hotspots respond to MouseEvents? (The canvas is a bitmap drawing class and the hotspots are supposed to trigger when the cursor touches them or clicks on them.)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Use A Next/previous Image Thing?

Apr 4, 2004

I want to use a next/previous image thing, which loads the next image from an array into a second movieclip(which will be hidden)... then swap the visiblity of mc_1 and mc_2 ...attach a preloader and stuff.its basically an effort to save some peoples on 56K dial-up lines.so it alternates between mc_1 and mc_2 (which is the easy bit)

Code:
picPath = "";
pics = ['winterrangep1.jpg', 'winterrangep2.jpg', 'winterrangep3.jpg', 'winterrangep4.jpg', 'winterrangep5.jpg', 'winterrangep6.jpg'];

[code]....

this code works, although when I rerun the function by clicking on "box" it just loads the image at pic[0] (winterrangep1.jpg)
while tracing this.picNumber in the loadNextNumber function I get NaN.That only becomes NaN when _root.box is clicked, not when it is run from the _root.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Add A Rollout Thing To Each Link?

Jul 29, 2004

[URL]

Anyways, click on that link. As you can see I've set it up so that clicking on one will change the color of the other. As well, they have a rollover to another color.

But, I want to add a rollout thing to each link so that when I rollout the link will go back to the color it was before I rolled over.

Right now it stays with the rollover color and when I add a rollout thing it is constrained to one color. I need it to be adaptive to each situation as I will be adding more links and more colors down the road.

I just need a rollout action that will not change it to a certain color, just the color it was before I rolled over.

If you understood that at all answer. If not, tell me or ask a question to clear it up. I might even whip up a larger version of it with more colors to make it clearer, but only if you need.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Dynamic Text Box And Assign Text To Its Variable That Doesn't Work

Nov 23, 2011

I've seen similar threads but couldn't find one with the exact same issue. I've a PDF / Word document with arabic copy when I try pasting that text in flash all the joined letters start appearing as individual letters.I've tried the dynamic text box solution in which you create a dynamic text box and assign the text to its variable that doesn't work. But strangely when you write arabic in dynamic text box (with out assigning the text to the variable) and double click to select the text box and its content the text starts appearing fine .. but when published its again all individual letter.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Variable Instance Names - Fill Text Fields With Text That Have In An Array

May 21, 2011

Alright so lets say I have a number of movieclips or text fields or something with instance names test1, test2, test3 and so forth. Now say I want to fill these text fields with text that I have in an array and I want to do this with a loop, how do I do this? What I'm really asking is if there is a way to use a variable in an instance name if you catch my drift.

There's a movieclip, lets call it myMovieClip. Inside this movieclip there is a dynamic text box, lets call this one myText. Now to change the text within this text box that is embedded in a movieclip, it's simply:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Text / Variable Used Before Populated With Loaded Text

I have a class that loads data from a text file and puts it into an array called tdv.importedTxtArray (public var).In a separate class i have written [code]The infoArray does not then contain the imported text however because tdv.importedTxtArray is not given its popper contents until about 1/2 a second after the tdvLoader class executes (i.e: when Event.COMPLETE is run and the array is populated with strings from the external text file). Subsequently in the code above infoArray is set to a blank array.How can i get the code in my separate class to ''wait' until tdv.importedTxtArray is properly populated before accessing it.

Flash :: Crashed After 8 Ours Of Work On A Routine Thing?

Jun 17, 2011

Worked on a project for 8 hours. I should have saved it, but the abobe stuff seemed to be bullet proof. I pressed the up arrow and poof gone.
 
Why is there not some sort of auto save for when it crashes? such a simple task you completely forgot. I guess now I have to save non stop to use your product. I don't want to sit there and mash that crap all day long. Another thing why does cutting and pasting frames from another file always put it in random spot? then when you go to move it, you have one messed up animation. When you click on a layer, you see the motion in the little colored line, and then the actual pic. When you select more then 1 layer it only picks one of the dotted lines, but it proceeds to copy incorectly. 
 
BTW why restrict underscores in screen names? WHY? I can't come up with any good reason.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dueling With Loader Loading The Same Thing Twice

Jul 19, 2011

I have a background symbol that does the loading external jpg job, and a engine as3 that loops 2 backgrounds continuously on the screen. However, only one background can load file although they "new" from the same symbol. To test this urr... phenomenon, I exchange the order of "new" code of 2 backgrounds, then whichever on top will perfectly load the jpg file and the other will remain blank. has anyone faced this problem before? or knowing how to solve it? this external loading is really painful to me from the beginning.

[Code]...

so as you can see, I put the B2 = new fBG() prior to B1=new fBG(), then I can see B2 but not B1 and if I exchange the order, I can see B1 but not B2. That's the problem!
