ActionScript 3.0 :: Make All Button Component Instances Trigger RollOver Sound?
Dec 18, 2008
I am using the Button component (the one shipped with CS3) inmany places in my AS3 project. I am coding in .as files, not on thetimeline.I have skinned the Button to use the colors I like. Now Iwish to "skin" it so that all instances generate a rollOver sound,and I'll be darned if I can figure out how.I know I can listen for ROLL_OVER events in each Buttoninstance. But I have many many Buttons and it seems kludgy to addthat same code to every class I have which tracks a Button. I amhoping there is some way I can make *all* instances of Buttonrespond to rollOver the same way. I am hoping it is likesetComponentStyle or changing the skin for the Button; I can do itin one place and it works everywhere.I guess I can listen on the Stage level for bubble-ups ofROLL_OVER, trap those that come from Button instances, and handleit from there, but stagewide listeners also seem a tad kludgy

I want to rollover a button and have it trigger the rollover state of another button. The buttons overlap. The one on top is transparent and smaller than the bottom button. So far I think I have the AS3 to handle the rollover of the top button, but I don't know how to trigger the other button's rollover state.

I'm using actionscript 1.0 and 2.0 on flash Pro 8 and keep getting an error when I test the movie. Here is the error:

I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

A friend of mine asked me to build a web site. Since I am a graphic illustrator and that I know a lot of After Effects, he tought that that would be easy for me building his site.Well, here I am, stuck with this flash problem (I am a nuke in actionScript). The guy wants an interactive map of the best country in the world, that is, Canada.When the users mouse hovers a province, a little rollover/rollout animation plays. Actually, it took me about three weeks to make it work, but it works.Now, this is wheretrying to figure out how to trigger a movieclip with a rollover/rollout button. When the users mouse hovers an important city (in this example, Ottawa, Ontario), on rollover, it should play the movieclip box_mc up to frame 40 and on rollout, play the rest of the movieclip

I created a button that has a movieclip in the rollover state. When you rollover the mouse, the movieclip will animate to appear as if the button will scale from a small to a large button even though it is the movieclip that is playing and not the button itself. But I also want to add a keyboard code to play the rollover instead of the mouse. I learned to write actionscript to play different scenes with the code below, but I'm not sure if I can play a button rollover with the same code.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, key_pressed);
function key_pressed(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (event.charCode==49) {
gotoAndPlay(1,"scene");
}

im having a bit of trouble with something,if you look at the attached file, there are 2 circles(movie clips), they have an AS code on them :
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse,_root._ymouse,true)) {
this._x = int(Math.random()*550);
this._y = int(Math.random()*400);
}
}
Now, i wanted to put a sound on the rollover, so when it ran away, it would make a noise, so i put an invisible button on the top in each movie-clip.and put a sound on the over state, but, this makes the MC's not run away!So i thought that i could add a on (rollOver), but i dont know the code to load a sound from the library.

Can someone tell me the simplest way to add a rollover sound to a standard button in flash ? I was trying to get a small chirp sound to play on rollover of a button. Im using the standard flash button creation hierarchy. Once the fourstages of the button are set. I created a layer above it called sounds then added a blankkeyframe to the over position and dragged the chirp mp3 file onto the stage over the button. Then when i run the webpage the sound effect doesnt play a expected. I tried playing with the dropdownlist of property settings too such as Sound : and theres a dropdown list. I chose chirp.mp3 there but still no luck. Tried some other sync settings too but not able to make this work.

Apparently when you give the button component a rollOver function it eliminates the it's own rollOver state... it's as if your rollOver function now overwrite the buttons...

Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkKeys)
function checkKeys(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(event.keyCode == 48) {
[Code]....
When I press the '0' key it makes the movie play. When I click the actual button it also makes the movie play. But how do I make it so that when I type '0' the overstate of the button becomes activated? In this way keyboard detection and mouse_down would work together.

I'm working on a simple rotation of some parts, I'm making mouseover regions for each position that the parts are in and the shape of these regions are completely different in each frame. I was wondering if there was a way to make all these separate regions on separate frames act as one button instead of making 25 separate buttons to do the same thing?

how do i make a button trigger a movie clip that targets specific coords? I'm building a map and when a button is click it goes to a defined point. right now it jumps to the coords, but i'd much rather it smoothly move instead. the other thing is that i would like it to move from whatever point it is currently at.

I want to make the timeline go to the next frame (ie gotoAndStop) only if two button instances are invisible. For the buttons I have scripted an on(release) to make them invisible, but I don't know how to use the if function to make my animation progress when they are both invisible.

I'm currently working on a flashsite and are trying to figure out rollover menu buttons. The site has 6 menu buttons and are placed next to each other. I want to put a rollover action on the buttons, that when you rollover a button that the whole button image enlarges and moves in front of the other.

Everything works fine but it seems but it seems that when I roll over the menu items the menu goes back up! It's just when your roll over the menu items it is actually leaving it the movieclip?

I have 2 simple MCs I am trying to control via rolling over the actual animation itself, not a separate button.
Here's the catch though: In one MC the animation is up and down, the other, left to right. I need the user to be able to not only trigger the animation by rolling over it, BUT, control the up and down/left to right action.
When they move the cursor up and down, the animation follows... you get the idea.
Can this be done with an invisible button covering and on top of the animation?

Whenever I am trying to do, the button rollover work, and put the dynamic text on top of it. The area outside the text is reacting to the rollover, but when I rollover on the text, I lost the rollover effect of the button under.The only way I have found to work around this, is to create another mc, invisible, on top and covering the button and create a script to activate the button rollover effect under... but is it the only way?
I don't have to do all this with static text, but the font react bad with rollovers or some other effects.

I used a little script from this website to make a button with rollover/roll-out effects (http:url..). In the end of the script, it says:
this.onRelease = function(){
getURL("http:[url]...);
Now I want the button not to follow an external link, but to go to a specific frame number further in my movie.But I can't get it (not with an extra normal button,not with gotoAndPlay (52) etc.).

I'm making an interactive map of the U.S. The layer with the outlines of the U.S. states sits on top. It has to sit on top because otherwise the outlines don't show up above the color fills for each state. I want a popup balloon to appear when you roll over each U.S. state. However, when I turn a state, say, New York, into a button, the button layer sits below the outline layer. So when I create the popup box for the button's rollover state, the popup box is *under* the US state outlines. How can I make the button rollover state exist on the highest layer?
