ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Within Movieclip?
Nov 25, 2010
scene 1 has a movieclip in the top left on the stage (called poster_mc) ... the image on the screen is of a museum enterance. double click on the movieclip to go into the movieclip; the first frame has the museum enterance and the second frame has a gallery.I created a button called door_mc which when clicked, allows the user to go 'inside' the museum into the gallery. this is the code i used:
poster_mc.stop();
poster_mc.door_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOU SE_UP, nextPicture);
function nextPicture(e:MouseEvent):void

I'm creating a menu bar that is a movieclip and inside the movieclip consists of the buttons.Now the menu bar is twice as WIDE as what is visible on the stage.The only part you can see is the text 'menu' on a bar.Then when the mouse hits the bar, it flies across the screen to the otherside of the bar where the menu buttons are.Now the menu bar does its animation over 20 frames - the last frame being the frame where the menu buttons are now visible.
On the last frame i have the 'stop;' code
On the first frame I have this code:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){

How could one set up a movie clip that has usable buttons in it? If i understand correctly, the movieclips actions will override all the button actions...?
For the purposes of my project, I need a MC that ive set up to loop across the screen with my buttons on it.

I've created a movieclip of a trashcan, which falls over and 6 items fall out of it. I want each of these items to become a button, which will jump to a different point on the timeline.
The movieclip is all working fine, and the buttons appear to be fine. The problem is when I publish the flash, the movieclip resets each time I hover over one of the buttons, so i get an endless loop of this trashcan falling over and the items falling out.

I'm putting together a site, that has 3 pages and I'd like the content to move into position when the menu button is clicked. So, 3 buttons etc, 'Home, Portfolio, contact" and one movie clip that contains the info. I'm not really a programmer [URL].

I have a movie clip with hit zones over buttons. It looks like a cam corder and when you roll over them a thumb moves to that button and when you click. The thumb presses on the button. That all works great. I want to put buttons in the main scene over top of these that will change things on the screen when you click it. And get urls of the videos that I have on my website. But when I put the hitzones over other hitzones the ones in back dont work. Is there a way to make them both work or am I going to have to make everything contained in the movie clip? So in short can I have two buttons on top of each other that do two different things?

I have 5 movieClip buttons. I want the GALLERY button to stay on the stage at all times, "which it does" but i want when the user clicks on 1 of the other 4 buttons for the remaining 3 to disappear. Example...when the user clicks on the KIDS button, the COUPLES, PORTRAITS AND BELLIES buttons disappear, or when the user clicks on COUPLES, for the KIDS, PORTRAITS AND BELLIES buttons to disappear, and so on.
Code:

I am basically trying to create a menu which can be dragged across the stage. I have created a main movieclip which acts as the holder. This is the movieclip that gets dragged around.Within that movieclip there are 6 buttons. I am using the MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP eventlisteners to control the dragging however it is not working correctly.When i compile to SWF it is fine. I click down the mouse button on the movieclip and It will start dragging however if i let go of the button it registers a click. Obviously i don't want it to do that but i'm not sure why it is registering a click as i thought that i was just releasing the button...
The second problem is if i move the mouse cursor off of the movieclip but i still have the mouse button pressed it will continue dragging the movieclip about, even if i then let go of the button.... The elements i have are:main holder movie clip whose dimension is 1800x280 and it is called : container_mcwithin this movie clip i have 6 buttons whose dimensions are each 300x270 and the names of the buttons are:
linkbtn1
linkbtn2
linkbtn3

My problem is that I created my buttons on the stage and then grouped them together as a movieclip called navSat.Then I set the Linkage for navSat to NavSat.I am doing all my coding through AS3 outside of this. This is my code:
Importing the NavSat MovieClip
Quote:
function loadNavSat():void {
var newNavSat:MovieClip = new NavSat();
addChild(newNavSat);
[code]....
When I run the swf now, my navigation system comes in and all the buttons are working (up, down, over, off states are working) It still links to nothing yet. The problem is when I try to add functionality to those buttons. I have tried about 5 days worth of variations around this type of code but cannot 'communicate' with the buttons within the movieclip. This is my code for the 1st button - contactBtn (linkage: ContactBtn):
Quote:
contactBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, contactDown);
function contactDown(event:MouseEvent):void
{

I've looked on forums, Google, you name it. No-one seems to be able to offer a reliable solution. I am having a problem with buttons sticking on rollover in AS3, then reversing their over and out states. It only appears to happen when dragging the cursor quickly over the top of the buttons. For example, in the case of a menu, when running the cursor quickly across all the buttons, many of the buttons will remain in the rollover state and then reverse their over/out functions. I have tried everything including removeEventListener which seems to be the most popular solution to similar issues.'m at a total loss ... Below is a link to the Flash animation, the timeline (screengrab) and the code in an HTML page

im making a simple map. layer one has the background, layer 2+ has the invisible buttons when clicked go to another scene to show more info about that part of the map.
Is there a simple way to combine all those layers into one and allow a zoom up and pan so users can see the map closer?

I am kinda new to flash, but I have been able to navigate myself around enough to learn a thing or 2. I have an array of movie clip buttons that when clicked stays in the down position until a new button is clicked. When one of those buttons is clicked a movieClip goes accross the stage (above the other array) and 6 new options open up for a photographers gallery (Newborns, children, family, etc, etc, etc) I am trying to add an array to the new buttons that show when a portfolio button is clicked, but keep getting an error in the output panel saying something about trying to access a "null" object. I have put the new array script in the movie clip button "portfolio" and I have also tried in the main timeline.
I assume that my problem is that the movie clips for the buttons I am trying to add the array to dont really show up at all until the down status of the button. Or I could definietly be wrong. How would I add the array to the pop up buttons?

I have a movie clip on the stage with 2 layers, a button on layer one and a semi-transparent blue square on layer 2. Now what I need to do of course is access the button on layer one that is under layer 2. Is this possible, I guess it has something to do with children or something.

I am loading movieclips on top of one another, and that part is working just fine. Each movieclip loads another *.swf file that fills the entire stage.
However, the buttons for the previous or "parent" movieclip are still clickable through the "child" movieclip. I still get the hand cursor and complete functionality for buttons that arent visible in the current movieclip...but actually reside on the parent. It is causing me a great deal of problem with event handling as some buttons are directly on top of the buttons for the parent and it's triggering unintended events because I can click "through" the currently visible clip.
I have tried button.enabled = false; but that doesn't seem to do the trick. Is there something I'm missing in the way I'm loading the movieclips? [code]...

I am making a bar of 4 different movie clip buttons in a row. Like "- - - -" and what happens is when you hover over them they expand and show content of what they are labeled. "info" hover over shows content. But the problem is, whenever let say hover over Contact, The "Info" title on the bar next to it will show. I'm unaware of how to make it so the "Content BOX" is above the rest of the hover links. All the hover links are all into one layer, in a movie clip. (So I can toggle the whole button bar from left to right.)

Its a bit difficult to explain so Ill add a link to the swf.[URL] The problem is: When going from one scene to another, and then back from that scene to the previous one, my movieclip containing my buttons disappears. (for example: from wat to nieuws and then from nieuws back to wat). Quiet bizarre, because when going from wat to wie to nieuws to wat and so on, the movieclip with buttons does not disappear.
The situation in short is as follows. I have 4 scenes and 4 buttons, every button linking to respectively another scene / page. The buttons all are in movieclips. I have 4 different movieclips all containing all buttons. For the nieuws page movieclip the nieuws-button in the movieclip gets switched of by ungrouping it and so on, and so on.On every scene I put the movieclip, with the correct button switched of, on top, with the swapDepths function. The other movieclips are made invisible by the _visible = false function.
I could give you even more info, though I have a feeling its not going to make any difference. I even have the feeling that the info I just gave isnt a clue to the solution. It really is mysterious to me, I cant figure it out. Still, the .fla you can find here: [URL]

I'm currently working on a GUI design and for the options, instead of a slider I want a movie clip that fills 5 boxes or empties the boxes when i hit the plus or minus buttons I've made. I created a movie clip called bars which has 6 frames. Then I made an addbar button and a subbar button. I then created a movieclip with all three items inside of it called gauge. I set the actionscript to the gauge movie clip. This is what code I have in currently. When I play the swf the boxes remains empty and will not move through the movie clip of bars like I want.

i'v created two buttons, Start and Stop, that I've have put into a movieclip. I've done so beacause I only want the user so see one button at a time. (I've managed to make it work with 2 buttons, but I'd like to know why it doesn't work with a movieclip and 2 buttons)
So when the user clicks the "Start" button the sound starts playing and the movieclip is set to frame 2 where the stop button is. So far so good, but when I'm trying to click the "Stop" button nothing happens. Here's the AS:
PHP Code:
stop();
current_mp3 = "audio.mp3";
function primeSound() {
mySound = new Sound();

I have a few flvs made from After Effects that are now movieclip symbols that I have to use as buttons. My problem is that I want those movieclips to continuously play even without doing a mouse rollover. Then, when it's rollover, rollout, or click time, another animation will play within the movieclips that I'm going to use as a button.

I have a movie clip "prog_ris" with the instance name "cont_prog1_mc". Inside this movie clip I have a button "prog_ris_btn1" with instance name "prog_ris_btn1".When I click on the button I want it to go to a new scene called "partners"
So far I have done only buttons directly on the scene and I normally use something like this:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("partners", 1);
}
But with the Movieclip it doesn't work.. What should I do now? Using AS2.
