i have button which open specfic movie clips from my library and locate them on the stage.This all works well and good, but i would also now like a button to remove all of them except one when the user is finished playing around.i got the follwong code working, but it only works on movieclips that are already present on stage. when i export the file i get errors because the movie clip im trying to hide isnt currently on stage i think. i identify the hidden movieclips by their class name.
startover.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, removeallFunction);
function removeallFunction (event:MouseEvent):void
{
I have created a timeline with visibility button against each column. The timeline.swf is loaded into two empty movieclips to create a two-screen operation. Everything works fine except, I cannot for the life of me get the visibility button on the first swf to affect the visibility for the column on the second swf.
Okay, so I want it so when I press the button the cheese ON TOP of the bird appears/disappears. It works with the cheese outside of the bird movieclip but not on the cheese inside the movieclip.
I have 11 images i need to _x slide (left and right ) using 2 buttons. ( next and back )my goal is to show two images at a time ( contained inside img_MC..consisting of all 11) inside a 748 x 419 mask. I have accomplished this but the next button and the back button need to disapear when img_mc is at a certain _x position...so that if you are at the last frame you can only go back...and if you are at the first frame you can only go next.
so far going forward I can get next to show...and going back I can get back to show...but in the middle when I need them both to be there I only have one or the other.

I need to add text on screen (for hearing impaired) to a simple movie I created. I just need to have text toggle on and off. I don't know how to actionscript the mc or button. Working in F8, publishing to F6.I did see the visibility on/off rollover thread... but I'm not actionscript saavy and can't make the leap to an onpress or onrelease button, rather than a rollover.
I'm attempting to make a "Wheel of Fortune" style game. Everything's going great except this one nagging problem. On the main game board screen (where the word puzzle is solved), I have placed small buttons with all the letters of the alphabet. When the player clicks a certain letter button, the corresponding letters, (if the word or phrase contains them) appear on the board. Well, this works just fine, but as of now, when a letter is chosen, all letters on the board appear at once.
Of course, in the real "Wheel of Fortune" game, if the word or phrase contains 2 or more letters that have been chosen, the letters appear on the board in a sequence, probably around 2 seconds apart (I'm sure most people are familiar with the game show). So, basically, I would love to know how to delay my letter MC's appearing, when the corresponding letter button has been clicked.
I have a mc tracking as a button with a working on(release) statement. Within the on release statement is this code that doesn't work for me: _root.playbtn.pause_mc._visible = true; _root.playbtn.play_mc._visible = true; The first layer of the button has a mc with instance called play_mc And the second layer of the button with a mc instance called pause_mc The button instance on the stage is called playbtn.
i have a movieclip called allBUTTONS which contains 18 buttons. This movieclip will be called numerous time on the CDROM I am creating, and each time the number of buttons visible will change. So instead of writing the following code numerous times for however many buttons i want visible:
how to control the visibility of certain buttons from an external file (like scroll bars). I have been able to do this with button function using a loaded variable and if statements on button release, but I have been unable to replicate this with visibility. I really need the button to be visible or not from the initial load of the .swf file. Any suggestions? I currently have to open flash and change the action script within the flash file and export a new .swf, and I want to be able to do it by changing a .txt file.

I have issues with the buttons working from the SWF file which is brought into the main flash site via UILoader.
[Code]...
I gathered that it is most probably due to the fact that I have constructed a button in the improper way.I tried to redo a button but it was the same result.I would like to try to access it through the main timeline. What would be the whole block of code to put a function on the button located inside an external SWF which is called in via a UILoader?

I did try.I have a simple slideshow SWF that I would like to share by letting people embed it in their own websites by clicking a button on the SWF (or somewhere on my website if need be) that copies the embed code to their clipboard.

Ive got one 2 scenes with different mc:s in them. Let us call mc in scene one for Mc1 and the mc in scene 2 for Mc2.I would like my button which is inside Mc1 (and scene1) to link to frame 10 in Mc2 (inside scene2).How do I code this? The closest I get is to use
on(press){ _root.gotoAndStop("scene2"); }
But I need to get to another frame inside a mc on scene2.
So there are three menu buttons, and the page flys in animations depending on the button pushed.I have another button named LINK, and I thought it would just be a matter of inserting the following code somewhere:
But no matter where I put it, it just makes my site play through all the animations one after the other regardless of whether buttons have been clicked or not, and the link won't work.Where should I put this code and is it correct? Also, once it's working, I want to copy it and make another button for creating an email.Is that just a matter of having a mailto: link instead of a hyperlink?
I am creating a button. This button will be embeded on several websites but it will have a different link for each website. It wouldn't be realistic to create a different file for every website. Could the link be set in the embed code?

does anyone know the code that allows you to open a PDF document (in Acrobat) from Flash? Is this even possible? Basically, i have 3 PDF docs that need to be launched from a 3 buttons in my swf. I would be able to do it if they wanted to post the PDFs on a webpage, but they actually want to run the swf locally and have it link to documents on their hard drive.
Attached is a test SWF that has the exact problem that I am having in the main file, tried to attache the FLA but it is too big.To navigate to the problem, preview the SWF and click Search Now. It will bring up a list of different places, click on the one that says Harbison...that will bring up another window with an X in the corner. You click the X and it unloads the movie-clip but what is supposed to happen is that the white box is supposed to collapse back up after the MC unloads, but it doesn't.The code is there for it to gotoAndPlay the start of the frame where it collapses but it doesn't work...the action is being called because I traced it but it does not do anything.When you click the Harbison button it loads a MC into a Container with:
Code: _root.container.attachMovie("harbison","harbison",0); The X button has this code on it:
