Actionscript 2.0 :: Making Buttons Do Multiple Actions?
Sep 22, 2009
I am fairly new to Flash and I am wanting to create a virtual tour through a house. I DON'T want the panoramic views; I want to be able to have the buttons walk the user forward through the house and look side to side. I have successfully made the left, right, and forward buttons look side to side and move forward for one sequence, but once I add multiple "If" scripts for the forward button it messes everything up. Furthermore, when I want the forward button to go back to its screen when on the left screen it doesn't want to seem to work.
All this is to say how do I get a button to do different "if" functions from frame to frame.
The code I currently have looks like this:
stop();
up_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (_root._currentframe == 4) {
[code]....
it seems to mess up the entire button. It will only do the first command in the structure. All of it has been VERY frustrating and I don't know how to structure it so that it will go to the desired frame but also go back to the frame I want when looking left or right.

this is probably a daft question but I'm a complete novice so bear with me. I need to know if it's possible to upload a picture to my Flash stage (a row of buttons I made in photoshop) and then somehow select each of these buttons and turn them into working button symbols? Or do I have to (very annoyingly) upload each button as a seperate picture in a seperate layer before turning it into a button symbol?

how I can make a certain code that works on the time line, work when placed inside of a MC? I know my question is too vague but my code is huge and if I post it it's going to be more difficult than if I can just get the logic and change the code my self.

How do I make the actions contained in a movieclip work on the main timeline? For example. In the movieclip, I have some buttons and I have an "Actions" layer there which contains all the functions of the buttons, listeners and such.
I placed this movieclip on Frame 1 of the main timeline.
When I run the program, I'm able to hover my mouse over the buttons and it changes to a "finger" cursor as if they can be clicked on, however, when I click the buttons, nothing happens. It's as if it's not recognizing the Mouse Click event listeners I put on the buttons in the "Actions" layer of the movieclip.

When creating a website in Flash, I have made the buttons but I am unable to add an action to the buttons. A message appears to say 'current selection cannot have actions applied to it'. I have followed the tutorial to the letter without any success - what am i missing?

In one of our project we are using flex for front end, blazeds/java in the backend. Its an existing code where services are prewritten. I have to make calls to 3 services in the backend (basically 3 remote objects) and get their result and store the result in an object and show the data of this object in a view.
Now in front end we are using Flex and Parsley Framework. I was thinking of the following approaches.
1) Making commands for each service call and storing the result in a shared object (model) and then displaying this model in the view. In this approach the problem is some services are needed in some other web pages, but they donot need the same model. How should i handle this scenario ? Should i make a asynchronous remote call and fetch the result and then again dispatch and event with the event object storing the result.
2) Making a service call , wait for the result then make another call and wait for the result and then make other call, not sure if this is the right way ?

I have 4 size buttons like so:
S | M | L | XL
Now when a user rolls their mouse over each hit target(size) I have some frame animations that make a box come over and an opposite animation for when they roll out...but now when the user clicks a button I am having problems. I would love to have it so when the user clicks a button the box stays around the button and then if the user were to click a different button it would play the out animation of what was selected before and then the begining animation for the button hit now.So if I clicked the button "S" and then decided to click the button "L" it would play the out for "S" and then play the in animation for "L"

I made some animated buttons, and now I'm trying to assign script to them to link them to their pages, on the script box it says I cannot assign script to them? Is it because they're animated or am I going wrong somewhere else? It's in Flash CS3, I can upload any files as a link if I've not explained myself well enough

I have rollOver, rollOut, and Release actions on several buttons. I want to be able to keep the same buttons but attach different actions depending on what section of the site the user is in. I have something like:
Code:
myClip.onRollOver = function():Void {
this.swapDepths(5000);
Tweener.addTween(this, {_xscale:110, _yscale:110,
_x:xArray[substring(this,12)] - 10,
_y:yArray[substring(this,12)] - 9,
[Code] .....
I tried just reassigning it and also tried
_root['box'+i].onRollOver = function():Void {null}
before reassigning it. neither worked.

So I have the following Actions for my button:b1.buttonMode = true;b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,onButtonOver);b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,onButtonOut);
b1 is my MC button Instance name. I want to add several other MC button names to this ActionScript (b2, b3, etc). How can I add the other MC button names without just copying and pasting the whole code with new instances?

I have a project where I need my button to have more than one function.the link to my flash file is:(tried to upload but it keeps saying invalid file)I have a countdown within frames 1-90. I didn't convert it to a movie clip because I have a flash movie that needs to run after it, which I put in frame 90.The way it runs right now with my rollover/out actions is perfect, BUT IT'S REVERSED from what I need. so close! grrr!
I need the countdown to stop if you move the mouse away.Then when the video starts (after the countdown), I need the rollout action to disable. If I can get this to work, I will be putting an exit out button on the flv movie so the user may exit out, using the button instead of the rollout action of the mouse.
Brief summary:
countdown frames - rollover/rollout
flv movie - no mouse actions

how to group objects together so that you can change their parimeters all at once. Like if I have a 7 boxes on screen with the instance name box1, box2, ect..... and i wanted to do change them via action script, like make them all partailly invisible when an event happens. How would I do that. I've tried stuff like
box = ["_root.red", "_root.blue"];
box._rotation = 40;
and
box = [_root.red, _root.blue];

I have 4 buttons on the stage and each button is correlated to a seperate movieclip.
btn1 - mc1
btn2 - mc2
btn3 - mc3
btn4 - mc4
I want each mc to appear when it's corresponding btn is clicked but it has to be the only mc on the stage...meaning whatever mc was currently has to disappear. I've toyed with numerous was to get this to work but I know there's a more code efficient way to do this than the code I have below. And I don't want to use any timeline.

I have 2 classes that deal with making my menu. One creates a button and the other creates a menu using the buttons. I have XML set up to set the text in each button. What I cannot figure out is the best way to have each button do something different. I do not have much time to complete the site so the way I thought about doing it was giving each of the buttons a name and setting that to what the text was inside the button. All this is happening in my menu class. [code]...

In the first frame of an fla I have the code below, only the functions in red works. When rolling over the second only the first function in blue works but the mouse freezes when attempting to rollout (green). But if I remove the code from the first frame and code each seperate button the functions work.
Any reason for this
stop();
btn_shopping.onRollOver = function () {
gotoAndStop(2)_root.main_mc.gotoAndStop(1065);
} btn_shopping.onRollOut = function () {
gotoAndStop(1)_root.main_mc.gotoAndPlay(162);
} btn_pen.onRollOver = function () {
gotoAndStop(3)_root.main_mc.gotoAndStop(1066);
} btn_pen.onRollOut = function (){
gotoAndStop(1)_root.main_mc.gotoAndPlay(283);}

want to simplify coding and wondered if there was a way to write a script that could be used on multiple objects without having to write it to address each object individually. I am building a simple menu where I want the menu link to rise and scale up when the button for it is rolled over and then return to its original position when the mouse rolls off. I know I can write this per button and per item, but wanted to see if there was a way to write it once and then apply the action to everything. EX. My menu consists of 5 items (and respective buttons) home_mc (home_btn), menu_mc, dining_mc, contact_mc, specials_mc.If I write the code
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, homeOver);
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, homeOff);
function homeOver(MouseEvent) {

I am creating a "Kiosk" to be used in flash using ActionScript 2.0 with individual scenes. At the end of each scene is an outro and the beginning of each is an intro to give the impression of them all appearing seamless.So on each button I have added the following [code]Frame 180 is where the outro plays to enter the selected scene of that button. I would then like add to this piece of script that I want that button to go to that scene after the outro is played. So it would have something like gotoAndPlay(scene xx);The only other solution I have at the moment would be to make an outro of each scene for each button to jump to but this having 8 scenes it would end up adding up to 64 outros in total.So would there be a solution to simply have each button jump to the one outro then jump to its own scene?

I am working on a Flash file and some of the buttons in the document are not working.When I test the movie the hand cursor appears when I hover over the buttons they don't change colour (as specified in the over state) and the actions don't work. Not sure what is going on here as I created other buttons in the same document the same way and they work fine.

I got a set of buttons and a text field where they load the content.I'm trying to not make one zillion functions and keep the code neat so i guessed i would try set the buttons' actions within the loop too. I firstly had some problems getting the i counter inside the onRelease function (actually I don't think i ever got how to do it). But I tried this and worked:
stop();var comprarXML = new XML();comprarXML.ignoreWhite = true;comprarXML.load('flash/comprar.xml');comprarXML.onLoad = checkLoading; function checkLoading(success) { rootNode = comprarXML.firstChild; ButtonReleaseAndContent ();} function ButtonReleaseAndContent (){ for (i=0;i<12;i++){ // my buttons are not generated dynamicly, that why the count. btTemp =
[code]....
At the line where I set the text, I had a though " I may have to refer from within the button mc, since the generated code goes inside it!". So i tried the this.temp , guessing that this would be equal to the button level. A few seconds later i noticed my referencing for the text field wasn't coming from within the button, but from the root.
