I am simply trying to use a movie clip as a button, and have followed my tutorials a la Jayne.com and am sure I have everything right.My problem is, I have put stop actions where instructed, and my _mc is obviously not paying attention to those, or my event listeners.
View 2 RepliesI have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
What action script would i need to make a button in one movie clip goto and play a frame in another movie clip? Im not very good at flash but i've been trying my usual codes but it dont work..

I am trying to move a movie clip containing content via AS3 tween with a button outside of the movie clip. I have achieved this effect on another project by using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(content_mc,"x",Regular.easeOut,content_mc.x,theXPosition,.8,true);
I set up a moveContent funtion using that tween, then used:
Actionscript Code:
content_mc.aboutBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutClick);function aboutClick(e:MouseEvent):void { trace("aboutClick");current_btn=e.currentTarget.name; moveContent(588,-538,"about.swf");}
to move the content. I am just wondering how to achieve the same effect but use a button on a separate layer that will be static.

Anyway what I need to do is have a movie clip finish playing when a button is clicked and then go to the frame label associated with the button. I hope I'm explaining myself ok. So if I had say 4 buttons Home Gallery About Contact If Contact is clicked then I want the Home page to play (Which is a fade out) and then go to Contact Page (which will fade in). Then If Gallery is clicked then I want Contact to fade out and then go to Gallery page and fade in.
View 6 RepliesI am looking for a way to fade in a white movie clip over my main movie when a button is pressed.
(i.e. When you press a button, a white rectangle will fade in over all other layers and then fade out after a couple of seconds. This is to make it look like the different pages are fading in and out without having to build the transition over and over again.)
I have two buttons that are movie clips in Flash CS4 and when button 1 is on Over stage, I want the button 2 stop movie clip at the certain frame.
View 8 RepliesI have a MC, which i would like to act as a button, controlled by AS. So,inside the MC is a simple animation (the button just goes left for ten frames (preferred rollOver action) and then back for another ten (preferred rollOut action).On the MC actions I put:
on (rollOver) {
this.useHandCursor;
this.gotoAndPlay(1);[code].......
What happens is the following: on mouse over the mc goes left, on mouse out the mc goes back to its original place.It works exactly as it is supposed to. Exactly until you try again... if you move the mouse away from the mc (onRollOut), before the animation reaches the end, it goes bezerk.what happens and also how the animation can be done using only AS (with some for loop or function or something and chaning _x property)?

View 1 RepliesI'm doing an online Flash CS3 portfolio that will page through various artwork I've done. The work images themselves are movie clips. On my top navigation bar, I have text buttons that call up various pages below the nav bar. Some work categories need more than one page, so I want to have buttons ON these sections that are "more" and "back" buttons, so the user can flip through the pages of that category.The top navigation bar works fine, but when I try to put any kind of "more" button (either the regular text kind or a movie clip) ON the artwork layers (the "pages" of my portfolio), they don't work.I'm using for the top navigation buttons. I have this applied to a number of buttons across the top, on their own layer. I tried this same code for the "more" and "back" buttons, to no avail.[code]

I have a blue oval button. In the button timeline, I created a seperate layer and placed the movie in the roll over frame. When I rollover the button, the movie plays, showing the button coming off the page (3D) with a shadow.
I now want to show the button going back into place when I roll off the button, but I am not sure how to do this in the button timeline?
