i was trying to make a movie clip visible (it starts invisible), than invisible again. It gets visible, but i could't make it turn invisible again! Same thing happened with buttonMode propertie. I applied both only for movieClips and buttons, have no idea what is happening.
View 4 RepliesI have used a pop up window code several times before and now it doesn't seem to work. I've tried in several different movies now and when pressing the button it simply flashed the page and moves a little, but won't actually pop up to the page it's pointed to.Here's the code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.angelfire.com/in/HansonArtGallery/2newpaintingbig.html','newWin','width=650,height=6 50,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars= No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");

View 14 RepliesIf I set the properties of "buttonMode" and "useHandCursor" to true in DataGrid, it does not work as I expect. Only if I move the cursor to the edge between two rows, the hand cursor displayes.
What I expect is that no matter where the cursor is moved, it should always show hand cursor.

I'm making a room escape game and I've run into a problem. When an item gets added to the inventory, I'd like the user to be able to click on the item to affect another object (e.g. clicking screwdriver hides screws and displays other image) however when I add the code to the item, if the item is clicked and it's nowhere near the object it affects, the image pops up and it looks really stupid.
So what I'd like to be able to do, possibly using if and else statements or whatever's easiest, is to only have the inventory item be clickable if the movie clip of the object is affects is visible on the stage.
How can i make a combination of keys make a movie clip visible? Basically i want something like this to work:
if(Key.isDown(Key.Alt && Key.A)){
reminder._visible = true;
}
So when someone presses the Alt and A keys down at the same time the 'reminder' mc becomes visible?
I'm using Flash 8 (in case you need know what version I'm using).There's three flvs I have assigned a cuepoint, "complete". The goal is to make a graphic visible when "complete" cuepoint is detected, but this function seem doesn't work, any feedback on function?:

what could cause buttonMode to 'not' work properly?? the clip has MouseEvent listeners. I set the buttonMode to true. I have a trace statement inside the roll over event showing that buttonMode is set to true, but for some reason its not showing the hand cursor. the rollover,out, and click events fire as they should too..and i have other objects that work perfectly fine with buttonMode.
View 3 RepliesSo I have a movie clip called signInBtn and one called signOutBtn initially,
signOutBtn.visible = false;
but when a user signs in
signInBtn.visible = false;
signOutBtn.visible = true;
But after I do that, I can't click the signOut movieclip. I thought it might be because the signOutBtn was under the invisible signInBtn but that is not the case.
I really need the code to make a movieclip visible only if the mouse is near the bottom of stage.[code]...
View 9 RepliesI'm using AS3 on timeline. I can't make a movie clip on main timeline visible.
On timeline I have a frame label (parte7) where I have three movie clip buttons (level_1, level_2, level_3). Only level_1 is visible.
On parte8 I have a movie clip (play_1), which inside has a button (newLevel). When user completes play_1, button newLevel takes the user back to parte7 to continue with level_2, which should be visible and level_1 should be invisible.
PROBLEM When button newLevel is clicked it goes back to part7, but level_2 button isn't visible.
Here is my code
PARTE 7
stop();
level_2.visible=false;
level_3.visible=false;

This is a very simple thing I want to do: show informational popups when an area of the screen is rolled over. I was able to get this working in action script 3 with MouseEventListener and the visible =true/false property but can't seem to get it working correctly in AS2.

This Script:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var cities:Array = ["muscat", "sohar", "dubai","abu_dhabi"]
[Code]....
...does not work when the buttons "muscat_btn", "sohar_btn", "dubai_btn" and "abu_dhabi_btn" are grouped into a movie clip.
I have made a simple site with some simple transitions. each button on my site loads in an external swf file into an empty movie clip.
One of these swf files is a guestbook which works when i dont load it into the empty clip and test it alone on my server (sending in the guestbook swf, html, php, and empty text file)
Now then, when i load in the guestbook into the main swf, nothing happens on the server when I test it - I am lost and now come to you people for advice. It obviously has something to do with being loaded into an empty movie clip that is causing conflict.
what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:
on(release){
//to remove all the splats
for (score=0;score<100;score++){[code]...
At this point, almost everything worked perfectly. Everything, but one thing. Apparently, the swapDepths command wasn't working. It was then that I thought maybe swapDepths only works on movie clips.And so I converted the button into a movie clip. I modified the instance names, etc, and almost everything worked. Everything, including swapDepths, but one thing: the gotoAndStop command.For some reason, when I tested the movie clip (containing a button) out, it removed the splat+score and finger_mc movie clips, as well as stoped the background music from playing. However, it did not go to the next scene and frame as specified by the gotoAndStop command. "s1a2" is the next scene, and "gameplays1a2" is its frame.
First of all, I would like to apologise for not knowing whether this code belongs to F5 or FMX Action Script. I'm that noobish, yup. Anyway, what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:

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);

I have a MovieClip with two buttons inside of it (bottom portion) When I mouse over the MovieClip - it rises up, to revewl the buttons. My problem is, when I mouse over the buttons, the movie clip drops back down. The buttons don't have any actions upplied to them... It acts as though buttons were standing between the cursor and the movie clip... The idea is to hower over the movie clip > reveal the buttons > either move mouse away or click on one of the buttons. However, the movie clip closes when I touch either one of the buttons. Below is the code and thnks a bunch ahead of time:

View 1 RepliesI have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410
