ActionScript 3.0 :: Converting AS 2 Rollover Effect To AS 3?
Jul 19, 2011
I am having trouble with a piece of code that I used to implement for all of my buttons in Actionscript 2.0. What I need help with is creating a similar effect in AS 3 (see code at bottom of post).
I prefer this code because when a visitor rolls off of the button before it is finished with the rollover animation, it will rewind the animation and give it a smooth rollout effect (instead of an abrupt stop to the rollover effect to play the roll out effect).
[Code]...
My timeline would be setup like this: I set up the rollover effect only, putting stop(); code in the keyframe at the beginning and end of animation. Because of the rewind (prevFrame()) effect it would use the same animation to rewind for the rollout effect.

This is probably a really dumb question, but I'm very new to AS3 so please bear with me. I created some rollover buttons (movieclips) for a flash website in AS2 using the following code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { this.onRollOver = function() { this.gotoAndPlay(1); }}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { this.onRollOut = function() { this.gotoAndStop(1); } }
on (release){ getURL("index.html", "_parent");}
Could anyone advise me on how to start converting this code into AS3? I know I have to use an EventListener but I don't really understand how it works.

I am creating some buttons for a menu, and am using movie clips so that I can have a multi-frame effect on them when you roll over them. The buttons are flowers that bloom on rollover, and I only want them to play once- so the first time you roll over them they bloom, and then they stay in that state as long as you're on the page.
So far I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. I can create the animated rollover effect, but the next time I rollover them, it plays again from frame 1. I've tried using a variable that increases by one every time you roll over it, and then if it's greater than 0 it doesn't play, but I don't know how to set it to 0 at the beginning without it setting to 0 every time you roll over it.

Currently I have retangular jpegs that are converted to linked buttons. The reason I made these buttons as jpegs is b/c I wanted to use this really cool font that most computers wouldn't readily have. Its working just fine but I wish to have a underline effect when the mouse is rolled over. I looked under the properties of the button but it does not have that option...is it possible to do that in the timeline?
Should I replace that non-underlined button with a jpeg that's been underlined when the keyframe is in the over position? I am using both dreamweaver and flash for the first time; all my content is a single flash swf file inside a box that is centered in the page in dreamweaver.
I find the layout arrangement in Dw difficult somehow and Fl much easier to work with. This is the page I'm working on [URL].

I'm tring to create a roll over effect. I have 4 Pictures: Let's Say A B C D. If I roll over A I want the other picture to have a transparent light box on top so it looks like A is the main focus. So if you roll over A the other pictures will turn dark and A will keep its color. I can do this by making A a symbol and then putting a transparent png dark box on top of B C D. That works. What doesn't work is when I go back to the original time frame and make B a button also. When I add the roll over effect, it only does it for that. Let me show you in pictures.
<---- that is the original
<---- When I roll over A
<---- When I roll over B
The last two are made using two different flash files. I can't put them together in one. If I put them together and roll over on A, It comes out like this.

I am making a Flash ad for my company. I am a beginner/intermediate Flash user. I need to add a clickTag, which is done. The issue is that I want the button to "shimmer" when it is rolled over. I cannot figure out how to make this work with the clickTag having to be the topmost layer in the file.
This is what I have so far:
shinyButton.onRollOver = function() { this.glitter.play();};clicktag_but.onPress = function(){ getURL(_root.clickTAG, "_blank");};
[code].....

how I can replace one movie clip with another when I click on the first one. Below is my code that shows me loading the first movieClip and adding it to the stage and assigning a OnClick listener.
thumbs_button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideoButton);
for (var i:Number = 0; i < my_total; i++) {

make the rollover effect on the buttons located here (under Zones):
[URL]
I did this:
ActionScript Code:
function moveX(mc:MovieClip, newX:Number, easeSpeed:Number) {
//trace("moveX Started");
mc.onRollOver = function(){
[code]....
To make a simple rollover with a click to go to another page, I'm thinking there has to be a easier way sticking to coding still. I don't want to place the code on the button but keep it on the timeline like above.

I'm trying to set a special roll over effect for a movie clip i created. all i need to do is this: when i roll over, it should play from frame 2 and stop where i told him (at frame 5) when i roll out i want him to play from frame 6 and stop where i told him again. (at frame 10). i already did this with no problem except this: my movie clip has a very complex animation i created with other movie clips who works frame by frame style (actual animation). the problem is this: when i roll out after a short time (about half a second) the flash jumps to the rollout part of the movie clip and shows the rollout animation but doesn't finish the rollover animation, what makes the animation to jump (the animations i use is a bit long).
so i'm trying to see if anybody can explain to me how do i make this jump get out of my flash animation. what i mean is this : if i rollover the mouse and stays on the movie clip, the rollover animation is played and when i rollout out of the movie clip the animation continues as usual (this is something i already accomplished). but i want to make this a bit more complex : when i rollover and than right away roll out of the movie clip i want the flash to play the roll over animation and right after that the rollout animation without stopping .... ' i hope i made myself clear with this problem .... for some of you it may seem easy (using some action script tricks or something) but I'm only a beginner who's trying to figure it out ....

I have was surfin' the tuts when I came across this one: Advanced Rollovers. So I whipped up a sig, and finally got what I wanted. But when I press ctrl - enter to preview it, the rollover affect doesn't fade in and out, plus since it doesn't fade in and out, the image never entirely disappears.

I have been trying to recreate the rollOver swapdepth effect (above). Works OK but slow using mc's on the main timeline using the swapDepth behaviors.It appears (on the [URL]) that each swf is loaded independently on top of the main with their own preloaders.This seems vastly more complicated than just swapping depths on a single timeline.

I'm not new to AS, but not very comfortable or good at it yet. I've got a dilema that I don't know how to resolve or how to go about doing. I'm trying to get a disperse/move away effect with some MCs. I've got several similar but unique MCs on the stage. Upon clicking them, they will each popup some text. Now, upon rollover of any the MCs I want the surronding MCs to disperse or move away. Upon rollout they should go back into place. I've searched for ways to do this but have been unsuccessful.

I am using movie clip buttons while building my own flash site, and I need to prevent the rollOver effects from being available until after a certain frame... I have the buttons "blurring" in when you first access the site, and if you rollOver the movie clip buttons before the blurring has compelted, the buttons skip straight to the rollOver effect and it looks really wrong.Here is my current movie clip buttons
code: (for rollOver):
btnContact_mc.onRollOver = function () {
btnContact_mc.gotoAndPlay("_over");

I have made a couple of 'advanced rollovers' if you will, yet one thing is annoying me about them! When you roll over the button it looks great, yet as soon as your mouse goes off the hit area, it just suddenly shoots straight back to frame 1 of the movieclip , is there any way to animate a scene once the mouse has gone off the button, so it looks smooth when rolling over and when rolling off?

Link: [URL]. On my movieClip I have a rollOver & rollOut effect with the following script.
txt1: will easeOut larger/ easeIn smallertxt2: will fade in.
Script:txt1.onRollOver = function() {
gotoAndPlay("on");};
txt1.onRollOut = function() {
gotoAndPlay("off"); };
Problem: In my flash file since this effect is done on keyframes if you rollOver the movieClip the easeOut/easeIn on txt1 effect will stick on the stage and it doesn't look clean. How I could go about this with hard coding the actionscript effect instead of using a static motion tween.

I'm not sure if this is being done through AS 2 or 3, or without code altogether. But, can anyone tell me how to create the rollover effect seen on this site (left hand side menu)?:[URL] I'm working in AS2, as I am not very familiar with AS3. I was thinking the effect might be created with a mask or some kind, but really not sure.

Let me know if this does not make sense. I'm looking for guidance on how to achieve this effect optimally.
