Everything I need consist on swap the buttons when i CLICK or ROLL_OVER those buttons, how do I do on thats circunstance? With a container and a background at the same displaylist.
I have two main clips with clickable clicks within each. I am using swapDepths on the two main clips in a tab navagation fashion. The problem is that if I click on the space between the nested clips in the top clip it actually is hitting the buttons(movieclips) on the other clip under it. Any suggestions?
View 1 RepliesI 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?

View 1 RepliesI am pretty new and I am trying to swap out swift files when the Buttons (Cabs & Sleeper) are selected but I cant figure out where to add the ".swf" file correctly, the current code I created is working but I am sure there is a better way to swap them, plus if I add more then 2 buttons the removechild will not work correctly (if a child by that name is not loaded) I think I have the right concept but I do not know how to make a variable that will swap the .swf rather than adding and removing the child.
View 3 RepliesI have a container with several movieclips in. I added an eventlistener to the container and on roll over i trace the e.target.name. The problem is when i roll over the e.target.name is the name of the container, while when i click the e.target.name is the target of the object inside the container. Anyone know how to solve this?

I have a movie clip on the stage which contains buttons and actions for various things. This works fine on its own...I have another button on the top level that does other things... This works fine on its own...What I need to do though is have a button over a button eg. When I press the button on the stage the single click actions both the button on the stage and the buttons in the movie clip.I know you can�t have two buttons on top of each other on the stage, so how can I achieve this through AS2.I click on one button and a click is replicated on the other button.
View 0 RepliesThe buttons are contained in a movie clip.When you click the button, it starts the movie clip and makes the page "flip".Problem is, if i click back to page 1 and go back to page 2, it now takes two button clicks to start the movie clip.I put this action in the button where "page2" is the instance name of the movieclip:[code]

View 1 RepliesI've created a gallery to play some FLV videos and after getting the thumbnail buttons to go and play on specific frame labels, I now need to disable the button that was clicked and have it re enabled when I click on a different button. Here is my code so far:
stop();
btn01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);
btn03.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);

I built a simple jpg comp click-through as a software demo, and inserted flash movies to simulate interative buttons (hover styles basically). I am using the SWFobject script to load the swfs, and they render properly. However, they seem to need a single click within the swf to "activate" them. This not the IE click to activate issue. They look correct. They just don't interact with the mouse until I have clicked inside the SWF once. This has the effect of making all the button require a double-click to work, and means that when I hover on them, they do not animate until after I have clicked inside.
This only seems to happen in Firefox... FF 3.6.3 and Flash Player 10,0,45,2
It seams my event listener for a mouse click on buttons isn't working. I gave the buttons instance name two_btn, etc, then I wrote in action script:[code]but every time I click the button it won't do anything at all.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a slide show that auto plays but I want the user to be able to click the numbered buttons to go to that slide. See below link for the slide show.[URL] I know this is simple but I've tried on release gotoandplay and I tried some event handler code but don't know AS3 at all.
View 9 RepliesI have a flow chart, the Flash works perfectly, no problems, however i am using the multiple screens on Powerpoint slides in a program called Articulate (a simple program to house things like this as a whole media object on a website etc).The only issue with this is that i need to add links on top of each button on the page, which link to other slides in the presentation. So not hyperlinks in the Flash code, slide-hyperlinks in Powerpoint.
The Flash code should be enough to make the shapes have hover states, but not be a 'button', if that makes any sense? The hyperlink shapes i add on afterwards in Powerpoint should be the clickable areas with the cursor turning to a hand, but the Flash code by itself should just have a hover state with the cursor staying as an arrow.
Here's the code -
var tl:MovieClip=this;
for(var i = 1; i < 30; i++){

I have 2 buttons that i made an up arrow and a down arrow. I would like them to move an image up or down on mouse click. Although i made the button rollover actions previously and i got the script below from researching online. Now I am not sure if i should even bother with it. I thought if i could get the actionscript to recognize the buttons and tell it what to move the (the ad) I could get them to work. But haven't figured out how to do that and if i have to make custom buttons for this. see what i have below thus far.

I need to create a workaround for a button issue. I don't know how to have one button created by one class send a click event to another item created in a different class
Therefore, I'd like to place both of my buttons on top of one another, alpha one of them out and have both buttons receive the same click.
I found code that enables my movie clip to have click and drag rotation.Not sure how this works exactly, but it does. Now I've placed buttons that show details when moused over, and I had to repeat them for every keyframe of the movie clip to have them follow the rotation of the images in the movie clip.My question is how do I now enable these detail buttons to be hidden and shown globally?I have enabled a hide/show button to change the visibility of one of the detail buttons as a test (on the tire of the race car), but what happens is the hide state gets lost as soon as you click and drag to a new keyframe and the button shows up again without having pressed the "show" button. What do I need to have the detail buttons stay hidden throughout the clip until the "show" button is pressed?Here's the swf for reference: http:[url].......And here's the current actionscript:
ActionScript Code:
cars.stop();
var startX:Number;[code]......
I have 3 buttons on the stage, and I want to make it so when you click on the different buttons it changes how the array is sorted. The buttons change position on the screen when they are pushed, so I was trying to build my code based on their positions. Not sure if that is the best way to do it. I have the array coming from an xml. This is my first time dealing with xmls and I am new to AS3 and flash, so please excuse the sloppy code. This is the part of the code I am having trouble with. It does the "else" statement fine, but won't change with the buttons.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to make buttons that play a movie then go to the page.
I want you to be able to click on the button (bottle) and then the motion tween play out and then when its finished direct you to the desired page.
I posted the code above that I used to get the button to play out on click, but I cannot get the code right to get it to redirect to a different page or url right after the movie plays?
The objective is when user clicks on any combination of 2 buttons you would then gotoAndPlay a new page based on the two specific buttons you have selected? Ideally user would be able to intermix the button combinations. I've attached a simple diagram that visually explains objective of actionscript.Code below only works for two specific buttons, but doesn't allow to intermix button clicks.[code]

View 2 RepliesI encountered a strange thing when experimenting with attachMovie. So, here's the deal: 2 button, 1 mc_colder. Each button onPress loads a different MC into the holder ( mc1 and mc2 ). Beside those 2 buttons that load the 2 MCs i have 2 more buttons that should remove the loaded MC. Nothing bad until now, loading, removing works fine, but a problem occurs if I click one of the 2 loading buttons twice.. Example: I pess the first buttons once, and loads mc1, i press button 2, loads mc2, i remove both mcs, now, i press button 1 again, loads mc1, i press buton 1 again ( and it should load the mc again or do nothing ? ) but when i want to remove this MC it won't. How can I fix this? Or how can I tell flash not to attach the MC again, once it has already been loaded? I tried a few tricks but nothing yet. I'll keep experimenting with it.

In particular the "if" statement that keeps track of the clicked variable does not seem to be functioning. Is there a problem putting if statement on a MC button? How do i fix this?

I have been working on a project where by pressing on three different buttons three different animations will occur.What I need help now is making sure that whenever I click on the various buttons I get different text showing in a text box I created on the stage.So far I created a dynamic text field, but I do not know how to load the various texts whenever I click on the buttons.
View 2 RepliesI just finished with the "Transitions between external SWF's" tutorial" with Actionscript 2.0. I am working within a flash template and I'm using the premade flash buttons to call the swf's.When I click on a button, any button, the repesctive swf plays just fine, however, when I click on a different button it does not load the different swf and the previous swf keeps playing. The swf's are XML driven for the content.
I made sure that each button script has the correct swf as well.Also, I have only one movie clip created for the container with an instance of "container".get the swf's to play when I click on the different buttons.
I am doing a menu bar in flash and have created a button rollover effect in a movie clip and applied actionscript. The problem is that the rollover effect jars the movie clip from playing and the click option is tempremental and works occasionally.
