ActionScript 3.0 :: Using A Slider Component As A Button?
May 25, 2011
I've got what to small problems when using my slider component.I'm building a small quiz and I am using the slider component to let the user rate their opinion. It'd be great if I could make the slider play the movieclip (to the next quiz questio) when the user has cast their opinion -on mouse up. Is this possible.Also I'm using a 'score' uint variable to collect the polling results but I need this variable to reside on the root of my flash file so that I can add to it from various diffrent movieclips. How can I target the variable from a movieclip.Heres my code:
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
voteSlider.value = 5;
voteSlider.addEventListener(SliderEvent.CHANGE, voteCast);[code].....
This is what i would like to target in the root
var score:uint = 0;

I was wondering if there was a way to get the sound from a FLVPlayback component and manipulate it with using a custom volume slider? Within my Actionscript I currently have this code which enables me to control the volume of a MP3:
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
var mysong = new music();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var myTransform = new SoundTransform();
myChannel = mysong.play(0,10);
[Code]...
But Instead of using the MP3 for sound, is there a way to use an FLV's sound instead?

I like the slider component that comes with Flash but the parts of it are way too small and I need to use an image for the slider arrow. Anyone know of a good free customizable component? It seems like the individual parts of the built in slider aren't customizable.I really just want a bigger clickable area for everything.

I have a component "child" which has a cancel button. Now this component is placed in a state called "newChildComp" I also have another component called "parent". In the parent component, i have a button that dispatches an event. Here is the event code:
[Code].....
so, basically,i am checking to see if the cancel button component in the Child component, while i am still in the parent Compoent, was clicked, if it was clicked, call the cancelButtonHandler. The problem is by the time the addNewChild handles the event, that cancel button was still null. My question is how do i solve this without using the itemCreationPolicy on the cancel button?

Is there anyway to change the height of the slider in AS3? (CS3), I've tried changing the actual graphic (of the bar) in the library and no matter how big I make it it's always locked to 13 pixels high.

I have an application that uses all four direction keyboard keys (up, down, left, right), but when I hit the slider on the application with my mouse, I can't use the left and right keys, at least not on the stage, 'cause the slider moves when I hit those keys. I know that this is default with all sliders...but must you remove this with a keyboardEventListener.removeDefault? If so, how do I do it?

First, is this even possible? Inside a function, I want to change the min and max values that the slider component will use. Say for instance, the slider by default has the min set to 100 and the max to 200. Using the slider to scale a graphic, I want to increase the min/mal values.
Can this be done? I've been searching the web for things like ".min.value" and the sort, but can't seem to find anything.

I am trying to use the slider component (aSlider) to control the volume of mySound which is a class called PlaySound. Created an addEventListener for aSlider with a SlideEvent.CHANGE executing a function called changeVolume. Everything else works but I can't seem to get the slider to control the volume of mySound.
import flash.events.Event;import fl.controls.Slider;import fl.events.SliderEvent;import fl.controls.Label;
var mySound:PlaySound = new PlaySound ;

Why can't I adjust the height of the slider component? I created a new component and placed it on the stage, and changed the height of all of the images that comprised this slider (which were movieclips) to a larger size, but it still remains a skinny line when I run the program. I even did this in the Actions section:
mySlider.height = 20; but it seems like the program is ignoring anything that has to do with adjusting the height of the slider. If I try adjusting the width, however, then that works. It makes the line longer when I set the width a larger number. But why is the height of the slider line not being adjusted? No matter what I do, nothing is working. I have searched all over the internet for answers, but I can't find anything.

I'm using the slider component, and its working pretty well. I'm just having 1 issue with the enabled state. the Situation: The user has to click and hold the slider down throughout the application. once their session ends the application sends out an event to disable the slider amoung other things. All of the events work fine except for the sliders disabled state.
the Issue: The slider is effectively disabled although because the users has focus on the slider handle before and whilst the disbale event fires the user can still move it around like its really working. Untill you release your mouse it continues to move around.
I'd like to somehow force a release click or something to loose focus on the slider component so it takes on the disbaled state right away once the event is dispatched rather than waiting for the user to release for this to happen.

I am working on adding playback controls. So far, I've been able to achieve a working slider component that scrubs the external swf's timeline. However, it is faulty and the slider thumb doesn't follow move with the timeline of the swf-it just remains still. What I mean by faulty is that sometimes the slider scrubs the swf timeline and sometimes it fails with this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()

I'm creating a new Color object in CS5. Essentially I'm using a component slider and linking the value to 360 hue and converting that value to color hex to pass into a color object which will be assigned to an object (in this text case a standard square movieclip). However, when compiling I keep getting the error 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.display:MovieClip to an unrelated type Number.

I am attempting to reskin the AS3 Slider component to have arelatively "tall" draggable thumb graphic. However, the sliderthumb always seems to be forcibly scaled down to 13x13 regardlessof the size of the graphic. I'm currently using the drag-and-dropcomponent on workspace method, and double-clicked the livepreviewto change the skin pieces.I've tried resizing the contents of the SliderThumb_*Skin(upSkin, downSkin, ...) symbols, the Slider component itself on thestage, and even the placeholders on the double-click skin organizersheet. The height of the thumb object is not directly accessible(seems to be private). The translated position of the 13x13 thumbrelative to the symbol center is preserved correctly... but thesize seems to be stuck at 13x13.
Is there a workaround for this? I've searched and found a fewFlex solutions having to do with overriding a measure() method orextending the class to hard-code a different height, but none ofthe corresponding classes (e.g. one site recommended extendingmx.controls.sliderClasses.SliderThumb) seem to be accessible withinthe Flash AS3 implementation of the components.

I was hoping to use the slider component to control some parameters in a game. However, after clicking on the slider to adjust it, the arrow keys start controlling the slider and stop controlling the character in the game. Is there a way to disable arrow key control of flash's built in slider component?

I'd like to use a button within a component to remove it. So, you click it and the component is gone. But, I haven't figured out how you reference the component from within the component. What should I put in click=""?

I have a slider in my movie (depositAmount) and in the component inspecter it has Initial value for the slider. In my first frame I have an input field for depositAmount and i want the position of the slider button to reflect that. So if the min and max deposit amount are 0 and $10,000 respectively and the user inputs deposit Amount as $2000, I'd like to position the slider button 1/5th of the way across the slider. Is that possible? At the moment the slider button will just reflect the initial value position.

I have a volume slider and I want to implement a mute button to mute the sound no matter where the slider is and unmute again when clicked or the slider is moved. I've tried to do it but so far I've managed to mute it and unmute it using the above methods, but whenever I move the slider to another position and go to mute it again, it doesn't work.
