Buttons Inside A Movie Clip To Control Same Movie Clip?
Aug 27, 2009I am trying to place buttons inside a movie clip to control the timeline of the same movie clip. This does not seam to work like buttons on the main timeline. When I play the movie the cursor does not turn into a hand and the rolloever affects only sort of work. I have read about controling the movie clip with buttons on the main timeline, but I need one of the buttons to change halfway through the movieclip. I want to be able to jump to interior shots while in the exterior section and vice versa. It would seem that button would work the same way inside a movie clip as they do on the main timeline, but that does not appear to be the case. I am using CS3. Action scrip 2.0 is selected, but I could change it to 3.0 if it would make a difference.

Aug 7, 2009I have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0
ActionScript 2.0 :: Buttons Within Movie Clip - Sub-menu Won't Stay Open In Order To Click On Buttons In It
Jul 25, 2007I am creating a navigation bar in Flash (which will then be used in Dreamweaver). When you mouse over each topic in menu (ex. Products), i want it play a movie clip (so it shoots out a sub-menu underneath). so far so good, but the only thing is, the sub-menu won't stay open in order for me to click on buttons in it. For each button, I assigned it the Behavior to go to a url. Also, I tested the buttons within the mc and they don't seem to direct me to url. do you think maybe it's because it's nested within the movie clip?? Is there an easier way to go about this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Movie Clip Buttons Within A Movie Clip?
Feb 19, 2008I used the Kirupa Tutorial for Advanced Rollovers to create my navigation menu and within one of the movie clips I have additional buttons that show up on the roll over.I know that you need to place the onPress code on the frame that the buttons actually live. I have a trace("mix_btn: "+mix_btn); to find out if the button is being found.
My problem is that I dont know how to get the code below to actually dynamically load and external SWF into a container on the main timeline. A friend of mine suggested a MovieClipLoader or onLoadInit Handler but I have no idea how to use those. (I'm a noob and proud of it!). (this is my latest version of a onPress.)
Code:
mix_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", getNextHighestDepth())
loadMovie("musicMixes.swf", container);

Jul 8, 2011I have 3 layes in my file, the first one has a movie clip, the 2nd has few buttons and the third has the background image. When i rollOver the first layer with the movie clip, it zoom the entire movie. if i rollOut then it zoom out. the problem is that the buttons behind this movie clip don't work. They are placed in the layer under the first layer with the movie clip. Is there any way to make these 2 layers work, the movie clip and the Buttons? The layer with the movie clip need to be at the top. I am working with AS3. if you have any idea please let me know.

Mar 17, 2010I'd like to know if it's possible to have several buttons in a single movieclip that can interact with things outside of that movieclip? An earlier test failed due their instance names not being found, I'd like to think it were possible though.
My reason for asking is that I'd like to control the visibility/position of a large group of buttons simultaneously via AS3 while keeping to a single frame.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Buttons Inside A Movie Clip?
Mar 8, 2011Having a bit of a problem with a project. At the moment I have a draggable map which is a movieclip, within the movieclip I have added a range of icons for hotels, restaurants, etc.I am having a problem linking these icons so that they will take you to the correct point on my main timeline. I've converted the icons to buttons and added the script below, but it doesn't seem to be picking up that the icon is a button. I think it may have something to do with it having a start/stop drag on it.

View 3 RepliesProfessional :: Operating Buttons Within A Movie Clip?
Apr 20, 2011I am building a website in flash for a design class (emphasis on design, nothing taught with actionscript)
I need help trying to figure out the actionscript for allowing buttons inside a movie clip symbol to navigate pages at the parent/root/main timeline level.
With this site I have the mainMenu as a Movie Clip symbol and have the menu items populate with animation inside the movie clip. I need these buttons when pressed to navigate to different parts of the site that are controlled on the main level of the site (outside of the movie clip the buttons reside in).
I have given the buttons instance names, btnDining in the movie clip symbol. The movie clip symbol is call mainMenu. In the main level, I have labels for the different states/pages I want the website to have (dining, accommodations, etc)
[Code]...
I don't know if it is best to run the code from inside the movie clip symbol and call the different view on the main stage/level of the flash or if I try to run from the main stage/level and reference the buttons inside the movie clip symbol.
Please help me figure this out, I am trying to go a little above and beyond on this project. I have been struggling on this for days and I have looked at tutorials, books I have on actionscript, etc.

I thought that the problem was due to the fact that the buttons are in the movie clip.

The file I'm trying to load is called PhotoViewer.swf...

Its like a gallery and it uses an XML file... I want to be able to switch back and forth between 2 "Photoviewers" loaded by the buttons, only displaying one at a time. So I wonder if this affects the loading of the SWF or my code is just bad...[code]...
