ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Menu Buttons To Be Dragged To Navigate?
Jul 20, 2010
I wanna make menu buttons to be dragged to navigate, I could drag the menu up and down with the as3 as follow.
but whenever click it to drag again, starting point of the menu move where I click on the board. I want to make the menu start to move from the point the mouse out.
I think this part should be done with something else.
" menu.y = board.mouseY; "
ActionScript Code:
var board01:Sprite = new Sprite();
stage.addChild(board);
board01.graphics.beginFill(0xCCCCCC,0);

I have been working on a horizontal AS3 draggable menu for some time now and i am almost there with it. I am basically trying to replicate the menu at [url]...
So far i have got everything to work apart from the easing movement when the menu is dragged. The menu is quite simple, it is made up of a container mc.Inside this container there are 6 buttons which fill the dimensions of the container.The container itself is bigger than the stage and the user must click and drag the menu horizontally to see the rest of the menu.This is working. However, i am still after an easing effect when the menu is being dragged as it stops dead (because it is using the startDrag and stopDrag commands).how to implement an easing effect on the dragging of this menu i would be so grateful as i cannot manage to do it! (perhaps using tweenlite or tweenmax if its easier, or by using simple physics - I have attached a zip file that contains a compiled SWF and a CS4 FLA file.This is the AS3 i have so far:
Code:
stop();
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;[code].........

I need a tutorial for a hierarchical drop down menu system that drops down 3 sub levels. Do I make the items in the sub menus individual buttons and then insert them into a movie clip or make every sub menu item a movie clip and insert them into buttons?

I'm trying to make a menu that has onRelease buttons on top of onRollover buttons (the onReleases are on a separate layer from the onRollovers). The onRelease buttons take the user to different urls, and the onRollover buttons are supposed to allow different parts of the menu to appear.
The onRelease buttons work fine, but I can't get the onRollover buttons to work consistently. Sometimes the onRollover buttons will correctly advance to a different frame, and sometimes they "stick" and do not advance. The script has no errors and I've tried changing the sizes of the onRollover buttons (in case they were too large and the cursor was hovering over more than 1 at the same time), changing the order of the code for the onRelease and onRollover commands (in case the onRollovers were being superseded by the onRelease commands), and countless variations of the layers and frames.
I'm sure that you'll want to see the script, but I don't think that pasting it all on this post would be reasonable? So I've put the .fla and the .swf on this page for reference: [URL]

I have 2 classes that deal with making my menu. One creates a button and the other creates a menu using the buttons. I have XML set up to set the text in each button. What I cannot figure out is the best way to have each button do something different. I do not have much time to complete the site so the way I thought about doing it was giving each of the buttons a name and setting that to what the text was inside the button. All this is happening in my menu class. [code]...

I have the following problem / bug:
I made a custom button-class (called CustomBlitButton) where a button is defined. The roll over-states of the button are defined inside of the class CustomScreen. That's because a custom screen holds one or more buttons. I can create a button when using the createButton-function of the CustomScreen-class.
So if I want to make a screen with a menu, i.e. several buttons I do this like that (this is just an excerpt):

My teacher in Adobe Flash CS3 is so slow with the teaching (and some doesn't understand what the .alpha = 0; does in my class so he has to teach them and they just keep us at thesame level). We has just taught my class "trace". Anyways, my problem is this: I've made a XML file which gets loaded into Flash and it gets my animation and adds the labels to the buttons, so far so good, but I am trying to make these buttons do stuff when clicked, like (website menu) if you press "contact" it will show "contact" and if you press "home" it will go to "home" etc.
As I said I'm a bit of a noob to AS3 (started to go through it in class 2weeks ago, but as I said he teachs very slow we are better off on ourselves) so I'm not that sure off how to do this. before starting to talk what I've tried I'll give out the code (it's done after one tutorial with some modifications). Tutorial is found here: [URL]

I'm trying to make a dynamic menu. I load four buttons to the stage and applie code to each of the buttons. But it's only the last button loaded, that responds to onRollOver/onRollOut If I roll over the other buttons it's the last buttons that reacts all the time. I just can't see what's wrong. I'm sure it pretty simple. Here's the code:

I have enclosed the Menu with the following actionscript. I want to make the menu so you can use the arrow keys to navigate. I have the menu set up as an array and so when a button is clicked it stays the color and I have the first part of the using the keys down. I haven't written the functions for nextImage and prevImage, thats part of what I need help on. I just need to bridge the code to get the directional keys involved.
Code:
listen = new Object();
listen.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getCode() == Key.UP) {

I have downloaded the following code and tried to change it. It works so far, but the attached MC are "pulsating" - if I change them with another MC (with text inside) I can't use them as a Menu links - they are "pulsating" too much and I can't read/see the text properly. where in code I can change(reduce) this "pulsation"? how can I make the MC-s cklickable=working as a buttons with mouseover/mouseout effects (changing color etc.)

I am creating an exercise to teach the meaning of the word "take". I want draggable objects (MC's) which will automatically snap to a different position when they are dragged a little way.
This is the code I am trying (not mine I'm afraid). I have it on the same frame as the MC in "Actions - movie clip". The MC is draggable but doesn't snap.[code]...

For my online gallery, I'm using movie clips as buttons to navigate. I was having the movie clip play when you scrolled over it and off of it. Now i have it so when you click on it, it stops at the mid-way point. What on is to get it to go back to its original state when I click on something else. So basically I'm looking for a way to go back to frame 1 when a different movie clip/button is clicked on. I want it to revert back to what it was in an inactive state when I click on a different part, but I don't know how to do that

I have a flash movie with a kind of intro to enter the website. I need a script to navigate to a new url when the animation reach the frame 500. I don't have any buttons. I am saying that cause I already know how to make it work with a button but not with a frame number. What do I need to change in the script? Here's a button script I have;
btn_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,a);
function a(e:Event){
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.website.com");
navigateToURL(request, "_self");
}
So what should I change to make it work when it entered the frame 500 instead of when a button is clicked?

I am trying to navigate from one scene to another with buttons. the first scene is a simple Main Menu that has a button and when clicked it navigates to another scene. The code works and takes me to the scene, but once I am at the new scene I lose focus of the scene until I click on the stage. The second scene uses the keyboard to control the scene and not the mouse. Is there something that I need to add to the new scene so when I get there that I will have focus of the scene instead of clicking of the stage.

I just imported a video file with 2 sections titled:
music
light
This should help:
So this code works perfect with a componant button but I can't make it work with a normal one. Why? What is so different about them. Why can't I make a normal button and give it the same name "my_button"
For some reason even if I name the button the same thing as the component button it no longer works

Im making an interactive video menu system in flash cs5, Ive split each menu page into labeled sections along the timeline. I have the following code placed in a specific labeled section so it should jump to the "Directory Screen" when the 3 key is pressed:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP,fl_KeyboardDownHandler_9)[code].....
But when it goes to the Directory Screen, if I press 3 again it shouldnt do anything but flash seems to remember the code and when I press 3 again on the "Directory Screen" it skips to the next labeled item for some reason.

I wanted to setup an array of movieclip buttons to navigate across my timeline via labels, this is where it went pear shaped.
Having spent three days reading and attempting most online solutions I couldn't find a method which worked 100% without failing in some way or another.
I've had some joy with the method below having seen a blog entry covering different ways to call frames etc and which highlighted the bugbear below :
clipArray[i].mouseChildren = false; //Hidden bugbear
I've added the full code below so hopefully it may help anyone else who similarly nearly resorted to hari-kari in trying this.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
var clipArray:Array = [btn_1,btn_2]; // Movieclip's called btn_1 etc...
[Code]....
This works fine, now however my understanding of whether it is 'good' code or not is an issue, if this could be improved in any way I'd like to know why and how as the problem with learning AS3 from 2 is that often you use code having seen it online without fully grasping the detail.
Adding MovieClip buttons with fluidity and which cancel out from an array became a three day mission when you're learning...

I have a long timeline with a series of slides arranged along it with a labeled frame at the beginning of each slide.These slides do not have any standardized length so instead of counting out frames and jumping a set number I am trying to navigate with my previous and next buttons to frame labels stored in an array.
This works GREAT!Or rather...it works great if you're rapidly hitting the Next and Previous buttons to step through the area.The problem comes when you sit and try to watch the whole thing play out and then try to use the next button.If you have passed framelabel2 and hit the next button it returns you to framelabel2.If you have passed framelabel3 and hit the next button it returns you to framelabel2. Clearly the problem is that it does not know it has gone past framelabel1 and is thus gotoandplay-ing the next frame in the array...which is 2.I need to make it check its current position in the array before adding 1 and advancing the playhead.
var fLabels:Array = new Array("start1", "start2", "start3", "start4", "start5", "start6", "start7");
var cLabel:Number = 1;
function nextPlayClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {[code].....
