ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild And ButtonMode?

Dec 14, 2010

I'm loading an icon from an XML file, then attaching that loaded icon into a dynamic sprite, adding it to the stage and trying to use the buttonMode method on it. For some reason I can't get the buttonMode to work. Here is my code:

ActionScript Code:
var forumHolder:Sprite = new Sprite(); //creates new sprite
addChild(forumHolder); //adds it to the stage
var XMLForumIconLoader = introLoader.image.(@name == "iconTwo"); //loads image from the xml files[code]........

I'm trying to have a class file which can add objects to the stage via addChild; however, when I call addChild from within the class file, I get the error "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild." I've tried importing flash.display.* and that doesn't fix the problem. Does the class file have to extend Sprite or MovieClip to be able to add objects to the stage?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttonmode On A Movieclip?

Mar 12, 2010

I'm using movieclips with nested text as buttons and labeling them as so: "work_btn"

the path of the button from the stage is: content_mc.work_btn

I've adding the following code to the stage to no avail:

content_mc.work_btn.buttonMode=true;content_mc.work_btn.useHandCursor = true;

The cursor still shows as the horrid I-shaped text cursor.  I'm looking for the hand cursor.

ActionScript 3.0 :: XML Gallery - ButtonMode When Hovering Over The Thumbnails

Jul 5, 2011

I've built a simple little XML gallery. Features I need to add.

1) ButtonMode when hovering over the the thumbnails. I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property buttonMode through a reference with static type flash.display:Loader." when I add it in.

2) One of the images loaded in is actually a SWF with a video that auto plays when the thumbnail is clicked. It play fine but when you click on a different thumbnail, you can still hear the video playing in the background. How to I property unload it. You can also see the last image behind the video player so unloading those would be great too.

3) As you can see in my code below, when you roll over or out of the thumbnails their alpha property changes. I want to make it so that when you click on a thumbnail it's alpha will remain 1 until another thumbnail is clicked and then it's alpha will change to 1.

4) Now this is the tricky part. I need to put an invisible "next" button over the large image that when clicked will load the next image or swf. It will also need to change the alpha property of the corresponding thumbnail to 1 so its matches.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load External SWFs, AddChild(Loader) Versus AddChild(Loader.content), Etc?

Jul 29, 2009

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);

This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);

[code]....

What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Builder ButtonMode = True Not Working

Aug 10, 2011

I am having a really strange issue where I can't get any hand cursors to come up in Flash Builder. Anybody else have this problem. I ran into a situation where I've had to convert a ton of Flash Builder projects just to get the hand cursors to come up. Weird this is if I open the swf's in Flash the hand cursors will show up. Once they get on the web though, though don't work. It's almost as if the buttonMode property will not work in swf's compiled in Flash Builder. I've tried with Flash Builder 4 and 4.5 and no luck. I told a friend, and he didn't believe me. So I asked him to just do a simple test in Flash Builder to create a Sprite and add it to the stage, add a click listener, and set it's buttonMode to true. He has the same problem, no hand cursor. I've even tried to set useHandCursor true with buttonMode, etc.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Movie Clip Buttons Losing Buttonmode?

Oct 15, 2009

Basically I have an up and active state, and when the visitor clicks on a button and navigates that section of the site, I want the button to remain highlighted. In the AS2 days I would use gotoAndStop to jump to a frame labeled that area of the site. It worked fine, but using the same technique in AS3 causes an issue with buttons no longer activating as buttons.

Below is a brief example of my simple code. When the gotoAndStop jumps to the new section, I do replace the the up movie clip (such as people_mc in the example below) with another movie clip (such as peopleACTIVE_mc).

In this case if I had four buttons and clicked on the second button, the gotoAndStop would run as expected but the first button would no longer be an active button. If I hit the third button, then the first and second button are no longer active. And so on. What's odd is every button above the button being hit, such as button four, would still be recognized as a button.

stop();
people_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_people);
places_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_places);

Does anyone know why I can get a handcursor over a clip with graphics, but as soon as the mouse goes over a textfield it reverts to a pointer?[code]I have to set mouseChildren = false in order to get the finger pointer to come up over the entire clip:[code]I have to disable mouse interaction in order for buttonmode to be respected mouseChildren = false;Is there some property of the TextField I can set in order to have it react to mouse events but not affect the cursor?Or is the only solution to set mouseEnabled to false, or to place the textfield in an intermediate Sprite?
