ActionScript 3.0 :: Two Events On One Button?
May 11, 2010
I set up a simple Flash banner with the following code to click through to a web page:
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("**URL**")); trace("You clicked me."); }
This worked fine, no problems.However, I was then asked to include a click counter by using this code:
btn.buttonMode = true; btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goOut); function goOut(e:Event){ var url:String = root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTag; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(**URL**); try { navigateToURL(request); } catch (e:Error) { } }
I've tried various ways to combine the two events, but it just doesn't seem to work. I'm only used to one simple action at a time.

I have designed an advent calendar with buttons that open the windows.
Is it possible to control the action of the button dependant on day e.g on Dec 1st door 1 opens, Dec 2nd door 2 opens etc?
How would i go about getting this functionality to work?
The script i have used for my buttons is:

I have an SWF that has been provided to me that I need to load. Inside that SWF are two buttons ("cancelButton" and "proceedButton"). Is there any way that I can add event listeners to these buttons from within my action script after I have loaded the SWF or do I need to get the SWF creator to create event listeners on the buttons that can bubble to me?

I have been trying to get this all day and all I want to do is when I roll over a button it disable the main button that is in its way. I am making a header and it has a button that is lit up and shows a screen but when I roll over another button I want to disable that buttons mouse events. Here is what I have(be aware what I am trying to disable is a movie clip within the button so that is not part of action script)
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick);
function onMouseClick(event: MouseEvent):void
{
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://msn.com");

am developing a multiple choice question answer. I have a movie clip in frame 2 where the radio buttons and question choices are displayed.I am trying to define a event for the radio button in the movie clip's first frame. But i show questions in random order. Say for example the first question to show is fifth I move the movieclip to 5th frame. The event is not firing since it is declared in the first frame. Should i place the button event code in each and every single frame or is there anyother option for this.

I am looking to have a button respond to both the Page Up button and the right arrow button.Basically we have a slideshow that we want the user to be able to either click on the button itself, hit the right arrow on the keyboard or use a handheld presentation clicker.I know you can't have two on (keyPress) events, but I wasn't sure what the work around for it was. I don't want to get into having multiple buttons with the same code if that is possible.

I have a flash file, and I'm making just a simple "ad" with right and left buttons..When you click the right/left arrows I want it to scroll and it basically will alternate between 3 different photos/ad's and thenloop.. I have set up motion tweens on my time lines so when you click it will switch pictures/ads and this is the action script I have and it is still not working? is this correct? what am I doing wrong, maybe something is not labeled?This is just for one button the "right" button It just scrolls through all the motion tweens.. I tired to put a stop(); on the layer the photos are on ndit stops but then when I try and click one of the buttons it will not scroll...
stop();
var buttonClicked:Boolean = false;
right_btn_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,

I have made buttons within movie clips as I want the buttons to fade in from alpha 0-100. Also, the buttons have an Over state, so when you hover over the button the colour of the button changes from maroon to grey.I originally used this code to link from one frame page to another:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(3);
}
however it just made the button disappear, so I tried using frame labels instead with the following code:
on (release) {
_root.gotoAndStop("menuLabel");
}
The above code allowed the button to link from one frame page to another, however the only problem is that it has somehow stopped the mouse Over event from working (the maroon to grey).I have used the following code to correct the mouse Over event error, but now the button itself isn't going to the specified frame.
onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
home_mc.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("menuLabel");
}
}

I would like to play a one of the sound clips when the button is pressed and if the button it held for longer than the sound clip is, i would like it to start playing the 1 second clip on a loop. Then once the button is released it plays the 2nd sound clip.I have been trying this one for a while now, can anyone help? Also on a side note I have a crazy idea of what i would like to do with this button. I would like it to play a percentage of the sound clip and when the user releases the button for it to play the same percentage of the 2nd sound clip. Like the reving of a car engine for instance.

I have recently read and practiced the instructions given in "Buttons in Flash" tutorial on this site, and although everything works beautifully it does not give me the code for linkage i.e. either external website or mail.
The existing code is:
function setupEvents() {
// associate events with event handlers
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButtonHandler);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hoverButtonHandler);
} setupEvents();
[Code] .....
How do I include the relevant behaviours to these buttons?

I'm not sure why it says that when I export the movie. I read that it may be because the actionscripts in the keyframe and not in the move, though that isnt the case here. Below is the code for my button.
on (release) {
getURL("JavaScript:liveChat();");
}

I am designing a instrument panel and am needing to essentially create an emulation of how the panel would actually work. Right now I have the panel set up to run through a systems test. So I have a button play a movie, and display a verification that the test was successful. On the real panel, you press the same button again to confirm the test. How do you setup the button to go to a different frame than the first time I clicked it? I have come across different possibilities, such as using an "if then" function, but really don't know how to use the syntax, or if that would even accomplish the task at hand.

I have been trying to pick up more as3 lately, also have been converting some of my sites from as2 to as3. In as2 I could create 3 menu buttons and save them in a mc- lets call it menu_mc. This menu_mc sits on my main stage. I have also placed a mc on stage to hold anything that I load. Lets call it holder_mc. So I figured out how to get my email button to work using this:
email_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mailto);
function mailto(event:MouseEvent):void {
var email:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:myemail@mail.com");
navigateToURL(email, "_blank");
}
That's fine. What I can't for the life of me figure out is understanding how to click on one of my menu buttons and load a swf into my holder_mc on stage. In as2 I could use this code on a button :
on (release) {
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.my_holder == Number(this.my_holder)){

I was following a tutorial off a site to build my title menu. I followed everything to the T and the ActionScript 2.0 is giving me 2 of the same errors Mouse events are permitted only for button instances, on 2 of my layers. below is the action script2 code
1. invisible button layer
on (rollOver) { gotoAndStop (1); }
2. ECHOTRAK BUTTON
stop (); on (rollOver) { gotoAndStop (2); }
my question is how do i make my button for my drop down menu work. an instance is a label correct if so were does it exist in this code. I believe its telling me I'm missing my frame labels to be included somewhere in this code the site i used was on this site

I am using browseForSave() to give the user a chance to save a file before navigating back to a previous screen. As of now the cancel button on the save dialog just closes the save dialog. I want to see if the cancel button was clicked, and if so continue navigating back to the previous screen without saving. Right now the person has to save the file in order to move back. Below is the code I'm using.

I am attempting to dispatch an event on the click of any of the buttons in a button array in the document class of my application. The intent is to have an external object receive this dispatch so as to remove a listener for the EnterFrame event in this class.

I created a dropdown menu from a tutotial I found on the net but when I place it inside a scene so that I can use it has errors which were not there when I tested the movie clip. It keeps going mouse events are permitted for button instances only. This is the same clip that I can't link my scenes to.

I am attempting to use custom cursors with AS3. I created a movie object that i position using:
function mouseMoved(event:MouseEvent) {
mousePointer.x = this.mouseX;
mousePointer.y = this.mouseY;
}
and calling Mouse.hide()
This works fine in that the custom cursor follows the mouse, but I am having troubles using events with the cursor. I have several click events on several buttons. The events do not trigger when using the custom cursor. In my ignorance I would imagine the problem is that the custom cursor movieclip is on top of the button, and so click events are only generated for it, and not the button.

I have a few swf's that are loaded into a base file using levels. These clips can be cycled through by means of a setInterval function or when the user clicks the next or previous button. However, when the user hovers over a defined 'hit' area which is ultimately a blank movie clip, the setTimeout call is then canceled. This works fine, except that now the 'hit' clip - being above everything - prevents the movies below accepting hit states, and if I move it to below everything else, when one mouses over any element in the loaded movie, it then acts as though the user has mouse out of the hit area.
Is there any way to have this 'hit' clip do its job simply by determining if the mouse is over it, but without using an onRollOver function or equivalent?

I'm listening for MOUSE_MOVE events.They are sent and received just fine unless the middle mouse button is held down. I don't get any more MOUSE_MOVE events until the middle button is released.Is this an issue with Flash, or something to do with my specific ouse/computer configuration (bluetooth Mighty Mouse on Lion)?Are there any known workarounds?Here is a sample project to demonstrate the problem.Left click and drag traces mouse move events, but middle click only shows middle mouse down and middle mouse up.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
this.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MIDDLE_MOUSE_DOWN, onMiddleMouseDown);
this.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, onMouseDown);
