I am creating a custom video player based on some of the components provided by Flash. I would like to create a volume bar that appears on hover similar to how Youtube does it. can anyone provide me with info on how to do this or point me toward a tutorial?

I need a vertical volume slider, but flash is crazy and instead of increasing volume as you drag it up it decreases it instead because of the origin point. the entire slider device is dragable too, so that is another dillema.
View 4 RepliesHow to create vertical gradient in flex. What i currently have is a horizontal color gradient. And its working fine.

How i can make from left to right??
View 3 RepliesI am new to Flash and trying to create a vertical slider bar that will return a ratio between 0 and 1, change color while doing so, and display the resulting ratio on the side of the slider as you drag. Everything works except for the dynamic text box displaying the "ratio." I want the text box to be invisible until you drag, then display at about 70% alpha when you drag, and go back to invisible when you release (because of the 70% alpha I have decided not to use the "visible" property).
I have attempted to use the _alpha command to accomplish the above, but the actionscript appears to ignore and just display the text box at 100% alpha. I have put the dynamic textbox in a movie clip, but still can't make it work. Could I accomplish this with a rollover button covering the entire slider?
I have posted the .fla file here for your review; can anyone let me know where I'm going wrong?[URL]..
I am trying to create Vertical scrolling images. I found a tutorial using AS 3.0, used that, but made a couple of alterations - like I did not want the images centered on the stage and I added more images than what the tutorial showed. As a result I have several errors in the Actionscript.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a Vertical scrolling xml menu. This menu is based on [URL] "Creating 3D Carousels tutorial"
This is my code
Select all
var Items:Number;
var xml:XML = new XML ();
xml.onLoad = function () {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip ("mc_Control", this.getNextHighestDepth ());
mc_Control._x = 0;
mc_Control._y = 0;
[Code] ......
My problem is when I add a new item in the xml file, I can't see it in the .swf file. My xml file have 37 items. I only see 24 buttons! in the .swf file and I' m stuck at this point my buttons have 26 px (_height).
I've tried to use the "Simple Custom Scrollbar" tutorial to create a horizontal scrollbar instead of the vertical. I've changed the defenitions like this:
scrolling = function () {
var scrollWidth:Number = scrollTrack._Width;
var contentWidth:Number = contentMain._Width;
[Code]....
I put the "Width" instead of the "height", and "x" instead of "y". What I've got is when I push on the "scrollFace" button it slides but disappears immidietly, and the the image (which is "movieclip" as well) beneath the masked area freezes.
* In addition - I have to make this scrollbar move from right to left - Is there any additional defenitions I must concern?

View 3 RepliesDirect me to a volume slider tutorial that works for actionscript 3.0? there are some out there but they are all outdated.
I did one that enables me to mouse over an item and move it all over the screen, but I need to get it to scroll along an axis. thats where Im getting hung up.
I actually have a really cool project. an online studio that enables you to rehearse individual parts of songs that I prerecord.
But this is only for 1 movieclip. And I need the entire stage and everything of whats in it (except for the layer with the background image) to be moved this way. But how?Also want the scroll to be restricted to a max y-position of 860px even if the entire stage goes as far as a height of 1508px.
View 7 RepliesAny tutorial for a simple vertical navigation menu with a submenu. Like a drop down menu but vertical where the main links are on the left and the submenues come out the right side of the menu. I don't need any bells and whistles and I am just learning so it doesn't need anything but a button link when rolled over more link options appear to the right. Is there a tutorial that is not a place trying to sell me this capability and actually works (CS3), no errors, broken links etc...just a how to for a simple menu with submenus.
View 1 RepliesI need to create a custom y-axis in a columnChart that resembles a tall / skinny VBox (sorry can't post pictures) and has the axis labels (20, 40, 60, 80, 100) inside the axis.By default, the y-axis is a line and I have found methods of making the line thicker but I need the labels inside the axis.I have tried using the AxisRenderer class but can not find any good examples on the proper use.
View 1 RepliesI was going to attempt to create a vertical accordion menu with a genie effect this week.So it'll be like your normal text based accordion menu but the entries will shrink and grow depending on where your mouse is.I've never ever seen this specific type of menu before and I'd quite like to get a look at one to visualize how it should behave.
View 7 RepliesI have a music controller that I can turn on/off, but I would like to add a triangle slider volume control too and also set the default volume to be 50% so the users can choose if they want to turn it up/down.
View 1 Repliesdoes anyone have an example of a simple volume slider that controls the master volume of the entire swf?
View 1 RepliesI've created a small music player with a sliding volume control. I'm having trouble with the volume. Though it does control volume properly, if I set the initial volume to less than 100%, the volume always starts at 100% until I move my mouse over the player. At that point, the volume changes to whatever the initial volume is set to.Is this a flash bug, or am I missing something? Here is the affected code (code for other buttons/functions omitted for brevity):
var song_initvolume:Number = 100;
slider_1._x = groove_1._x + song_initvolume;
playSong(0,song_play);[code]....
I'd like to be able to set the volume at say 50%, but the above mentioned behavior happens each time.
I'm building a video player and am kinda stuck at the volume slider part. It's a YouTube style vertical slider, meaning if the slider is in the top position volume should be 100% and if the slider is dragged to the bottom position sound should be 0. Currently it's doing the opposite of what I want :(
Dragging the slider down will make the sound louder, while dragging up lowers it.
Here is my code below dealing with the volume slider.
[Code]....
The (-4) is an offset value so when you drag it all the way to turn it off, it's 0 and not 4. I need to reverse this somehow, so the traces above will swap... going down will make userVolume = 4 and going up will make it 30.
the player needs to have a play, pause, stop, volume and also needs to show the track I'm currently listening to (play list).
View 1 RepliesIs there any way I can create a slider on my desktop to access some of the controls of the YouTube Video player like volume, pause, play, playback speed? I know it is a flash player, but would this involve accessing the YouTube API or something else? For example, I'd like to program something similar to what's provided by the Enounce MySpeed application (control over play back speed).
View 1 RepliesI've got a serious of games which in turn load off a main main swf.I have mute and unmute buttons on the main menu and the same buttons in each game.When I unload/load a game I want the volume to stay as it is so they player doesn't have to keep turning the volume off. AudioOff is the button shown when the volume is off and AudioOn is the button shown when the volume is on.The code I've got now keeps the volume on or off through the games but the buttons aren't showing up correct with this code..
if (SoundVolume.volume == 1)
{
AudioOn.visible = false;[code].....
I converted the slider bar and slider button to buttons. Then, I made the slider button into a movie clip.
Here is the code I placed while slider button was a button:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag(this, false, left, top, right, bottom);
}
[Code]....
It seems right to me but I don't know. The movie button slides down the slider bar but it just doesn't affect the volume. Going to try to attach my FLA to offer better insight. Just tried to upload it and no matter if it's FLA or zipped FLA, it says it failed.
my first time trying to draw a multi-color gradient in actionscript 3. So I got this code from the help docs, but I can't seem to get a vertical gradient, whatever formula or number I use for rotate, it stays stuck on the default horizontal gradient :(

Based on this Adobe multiple axis chart example: [URL]
Then I changed some data values to negative and my axis became not aligned anymore.
how to align vertical axis? Is this another Adobe bug or there is some property that aligns axis?

<s:Application
minHeight="600"

i found i can get vertical dynamic text block by setting to vertical and then to dynamic. But, then it ends up being horizontal, and if inside a clip, only the letters over another item in clip show. Like veritcal text on a vertical bar gives only the 1 or 2 letters that fit across bar, rest truncated. i've tried embedding text to get this far, but still doesn't work 'all the way' i see online they talk about all scripting for dynamic, vertical text; is that necessary, or am i missing something??
