ActionScript 3.0 :: HtmlText A:hover Event?
Jan 15, 2008
Can't find any info on this anywhere. Posted over at actionscript.org and thought I'd try here to:I know you can listen for the link event when the user clicks a hyperlink in an html enabled text field but what if I want to have something displayed on mouseOver (a:hover) of the hyperlink? Like a simple tooltip for the link?
I don't see any info on a "hover" event or anything.Is my only option to somehow get the bounds of the link in the text field and check for a hitTest or mouseOver or something? Seems like this shouldn't be this hard.

My goal with this actionscript is to create a new movieclip for each top-level XML node and include in the movieclip two separate textfields, an image, extend the movieclips to two row if necessary, rotate each movieclip differently depending its parity and add a hover event based on the movieclips instance name. I have achieved each goal except for the hover bit. The reason I cant access the instance name outside of the for loop is because the instance name only lasts for duration of the loop. Here is my current code (at pastie address).I have extensively searched the interweb to try and find a solution, but nothing has worked.

I'm using the <s:ComboBox> flex component which I suspect is very similar to the mx one <mx:ComboBox>
What I'm trying to do is listen to the event of the mouse moving between the items of the list. There's a change event, but it kicks in only when the item is clicked/selected from the list.
What event would I need to listen for when items are just hovered over. I tried finding over and hover but couldn't find something to that effect.

I'm definitely not being lazy, I have just run out of options.

I need to catch a hover event on top of a flash object, so I set the wmode and created an invisible div on top of it to attach the event listeners to. Thing is, I can't click the flash object. The cover is swallowing the clicks, and the things I've tried to go around this have made a mess of the hover events. This is the 30th problem I ran into in 2 days time and it's driving me crazy xD.

I have some movieclips that play when you hover over them and rewind when you mouse out. Now I've added a click event to the MCs also and now the first time you hover over them, nothing happens. But the second time works just fine.The MCs that don't have the click event work fine using the same code.URL...

Does anyone have a simple AS 2.0 that will make a MC appear to hover in place?
The effect should look like a ping pong ball floating above an air shaft, mostly bouncing on the Y axis.

I have figured out how to do most items I have needed to change in a template I purchased, but I'm stumped on this one. How do I change to hover over color of menu items? I can supply the fla and flv files if needed. I just don't know which item(s) I should be working on in the library to do what I want to do.

this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,function() {
this.alpha=0
})
In an MC, I want it to become invisible when the mouse hovers over it. The reason I'm putting this code inside the MC and not making an instance out of it is because this MC will recur numerous times. The listener does work, as tested with trace(). For whatever reason, alpha doesn't.

Basicly I have a photo gallery which has graphic above the photos with text saying what the image is of. I am not sure on how to set the graphic to visible = false at the start of the flash movie? Also how would I achieve it so it only shows the graphic when the user has its mouse hovered over the certain images?

I'm working on this little game and I want a movieclip to appear when hovered over, disappear when the mouse leaves the movieclip, and the visibility should equal false by default.
I have tried almost all the MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_DOWN, MOUSE_OUT stuff and I already have it so when its hovered over, it appears and when its hovered out, it disappears.. I can't seem to make it invisible by default though.
Here's my code, if its needed.
Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
exit2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, manageMouseOver);
exit2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, manageMouseOut);
[Code].....

This is a test I'm doing, where I have movieclips inside my movieclip holder that scale up as I hover over and scale down when I'm no longer hovering. Here is the code for that:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code] .....
This works great. The only problem I'm having is that if you hover over each of the items quick enough, they don't scale back down.

I'm working on a little navigation here where several icons will fly up to a certain height and then hover around, kinda like a flying insect might. Most of my actionscripting experience has been pretty basic so far, and i'm having a little trouble getting this thing to do exactly what i want.
these are things that i would like to happen: -- the icons fly up sequentially, instead of all at once -- the icons fly up to a less uniform height (more variance on the Y axis)these are things that really need to be fixed, but i can't figure out how: if you rollover the icons too fast, they go to a negative scale(which flips them over)also, i'm sure this code isn't the most efficient, and there are a few onEnterFrames that i could probably get rid of, but when i tried deleting any, it would break the code.

I have a "hot" area where the user can drag around this newspaper looking thing. Also, there are hover captions that say, "Drag" and a caption that says "Close" over what will be the close button.Everything works fine.Until....Click to drag the paper thingy, then release it. Move your mouse off the paper, then back onto the hot area. The captions snap right to the center of the hot area.

I'm working on [URL] and I'm having problems with the semi-transparent png backgrounds when I embed flash into the page, but only in Internet Explorer. See attached. notice how the semi-trans white seems to fade out away from the top left in the drop down, and in the 5-pixel border encircled. On pages without flash, it's fine. In Firefox, Safari, it's fine. I tried using the Unit PNG fix, and that made the image backgrounds look perfect, but then my drop-down hover menus became buggy, i.e. they would hide if you moused over link text in the menu and then moved back into the white empty space in the menu. Argh. I'm running IE 8.0.7077.0, Firefox 3.0.9, on Windows 7 build 7077 x64

I am trying to have a link on a web page open up a flash video that appears to hover over the html. I have read web pages explaining parts of this but I cannot get it all to work together.
I am using swfobject to embed the flash object into the web page. I think I need to use javascript to handle the event of clicking on the button and then use z-index to have it appear to hover. Ideally the flash would center itself in the middle of the browser

Building a website for myself and I know a bit of flash but not much. Mostly following tutorials and adapting for my own purposes. Anyway I am building a menu bar, which when you hover over certain items drops down a submenu. I can get the submenu to drop down ok but I cant figure out how to get it to link (jump) to a new frame/scene. I think problem is in function showSubMenu? Flash CS4, AS3
Code:
// SETTINGS
// Make submenu buttons hidden
btn_Set.btn_Set1.visible = false;
btn_Set.btn_Set2.visible = false;
// Add event listeners for main button

i want to do many little animations with sound on one page. for not getting a complete sound mess i thought about playing only on hoover. i was lucky to mix up some as3 to get a sound playing only when you hover the animation.
A invisible button on a layer above the movie frames controls via mouseover and mouseout the start and stop of the sound - problem here: sound runs totally uncontrolled and asynchronous to the frames of the animation.
[URL]
here is the code of the button:
PHP Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;
newButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutHandler);

I have inserted in an image and a button and tried both ways. When you click on the image I want a picture to appear. I am using this on a map of a building I want to be able to show pictures of what you would see if you were in the building. The only problem I am running into is that when you click where the picture shows up it will appear.

I have a button that I use universally to show a hover state, so that the user knows the item is clickable. The hover state is a simple black stroke. Because the buttons with the timeline are of different sizes, I stretch the button to encapsulate the entire area I want to be linked. However, the stoke of the hover state is stretched too, so it's get thicker the bigger I make it. Is there any way to ensure the stroke is always the same weight?
