I'm trying to fade in a video player controls_mc. I can do that fine using:
controls_mc.onRollOver = function() {
TweenLite.to(controls_mc, 1, {_alpha:100, ease:Strong.easeOut});
delete onRollOver;
[code].....
I have an mc with a button nested inside and on this button I have AS for the rollOver and rollOut to play certain frames of the mc. The problem is when I use this mc (called 'mybutton_mc') in a menu system and I want to add AS to it to navigate to different areas, ie adding onPress to this mc, it kill's the AS on the rollOver and rollOut functions of the button within.
View 1 RepliesOkay, now things are getting a little complicated. I need to build a Flash object that can sit over the corner of an image to serve extra content. It's way beyond my Flash skill level, my work is usually limited to print work in Photoshop and Illustrator so please excuse me if any of the following isn't clear. I am trying to learn though, So this is how it's all supposed to work, along with my issues; When the image & Flash item load a small looping animation will play to draw the eye/show the item as interactive.
When the user rolls over this the corner will peelback. I have a working peelback animation for the rollover, that reacts to mouse over/mouse off, and a looping animation for the initial, but I cannot work out how to make the initial loop until mouseover, then play the peelback when the mouse is over. And go back to the initial animation loop if the user rolls off. (Each of these animations is stored as a movie clip in the Library)
Then it gets more complicated... if the user stays on the corner until it is fully peeled back I need to make a small countdown (sort of a 3, 2, 1 situation) show, before launching a lightbox (would this have to be jQuery, or could it be done in Flash?) in the browser to serve the content.

I want a a definition to pop up when the user's mouse rolls over a word in the movie. What's the simplest way to do this?

View 2 Repliesam trying to find a way to display an image (a shelf with various pieces of art.) I want each piece to be a link where the user can click on it, and it will pop up in a new window, or an area below the main image where it will show a larger, up-close view, with details, such as price, meanings, ect.
View 3 RepliesSo I have a window that slides in when its rolled over. It goes back to its origin when the user rolls off the window. Now within that window I have a scroll feature taht creates a conflict with the window actions when the user tries to use the scrollbar elements. I want the window to stay open, while the user is scrolling and i want the window to close when the user rolls off the window.
It could be easier to have the user click the window open/closed...but I was wondering if there is a way I could keep my original vision...here is what i wrote for the window code:
[AS]window.backdimmer._alpha=0;
window.trigger.onRollOver = function() {
window.slideTo(-360, "_y", .4, "easeoutbounce");
[Code]....
basically i have a mc that i want to use as a button.
frame 1 is the initial state with a stop() action on it. frame 10 is the full rolled over state, also with a stop() action on it, and frame 20 matches frame 1.
so basically i want the button to animate frame 1-10 if they rollover, and animate frame 11-20 when they roll off. i would also like it to detect the current frame, so like if the user rolls off and rolls back on at frame 15, it will play backwards to the mouseover state (frame 10).
I'm trying to create reusable rollover button states with dynamic/changing text - any cleaver workaround for that?
View 1 RepliesI created a button in Illustrator and imported to my Flash library. The button has drop shadows, overlay and gradients. It imports and previews just fine until I change it to a button. When I go to preview it, there are these thick red boxes that seems to incase every layer of the button?
View 3 RepliesI'm basically looking to create some buttons that once 'rollover'd' grow slightly, and shrink again once 'rollout'd' and I am hoping to add a little bounce (or I believe its called elastic) once it snaps back. I am a beginner, but have created buttons before with rollover, rollout etc but arent sure how to create the motion of it growing in the button. (I am using Flash CS4 and was intending AS3, but happy to use whatever is recommended for this.) I did use this site tutorial [URL], but I wasn't sure which AS or CS it was using. Everything worked but the motion of the growing.
View 8 RepliesWhat I want to create is a group of 13 images and upon rollover each image would make a different sound. I don't want the sound to stop once you move the mouse though because I want a few different sounds playing at the same time. At this point I don't really care whether they play for their whole duration or just for another 15 seconds! I'm doing this for Uni and the guy said it wasn't that hard.
I have some basic knowledge in HTML code, but I am a complete newbie to flash. I've downloaded Flash C5 and that's about as far as I've got! I'm not entirely sure which template if any I would need to use. I can't pay back in knowledge since I don't know anything, but I could bake you cookies?!
I'm looking for a very specific tutorial, Basically I want to create a flash 'rollover, image background change type thing' which I will display photos on. A very good example of what I mean can be found here:[URL]. You will see 6 small thumbnails which, when you mouse over them, change the background image to match. My design, I want to be a lot simpler. If you look at the following image you should see what I'm after: [URL]. 5 small thumbnails on the left, when you hover over them, they animate and the big 'red' rectangle changes to display the image.
View 0 RepliesI using this array to create rollover and rollout events for a bunch of movie clips, I only have one on my stage at the moment during testing. When I rollover and out I see the trace but no animation, if I change event.target for the movie clips instance name it works so its obviously something to do with how I am referencing the clips. These clips are just on the stage not within another movie clip.
Code:
//Button Actions
var buttonArray:Array =
[ whatIs_mc, ];
function initSite():void {
for (var i:Number = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++) {

I'm working on creating a gallery for my portfolio site. I have thumbnails of all my work. I've turned them into button and made it so when you rollover it, a larger preview of it appears with a description of the piece, off to the side in a designated area. Instead of making my stage larger or creating more pages to contain all my thumbnails, I made a vertical scrollbar. The scrollbar works just fine. The problem is when the thumbnail is moved, the rollover that would be moves in relation to it.how can I absolutely make sure that any rollover I create with a button is where I want it to be, no matter where the thumbnail moves to?
View 10 RepliesI have been having trouble creating a movie clip with a reverse rollover effect within a movie which has a reverse rollover effect. that sounds confusing
In essence I wish to create a panel that rolls out on rollover and rolls back in reverse when the you rollout. I have done this using this script
[Code]...
However I wish to make movies within this movie that have the same effect on them. But when I create another movie or button within this movie it is not registering on rollover. I guess because the script on the main movie overrides it?
I have a main.swf file and it will load an external swf file.I have this code in the external swf file:[code]So when the external swf file loaded in the main.swf, the color_picker is visible in the main.swf.Everything works just fine but I just need to know how to remove (Kill the onEnterFrame) when the external swf file has been unloaded or replaced with another external swf file?
View 2 RepliesSometimes it is necessary just to kill focus (e.g. from the TextField instance). But I found no ways to do that. The only solutions is to set focus on another instance that handles mouse events.

[Code]...

I need to add several copies of a movieclip at random times. When each clip plays out I need it to be removed. What I'm trying is the following:

The first script is working but the last one is not. How should a movie clip instance remove itself?I'm used to AS2 where it just requires this.removeMovieClip(). I've tried to search for an equivalent in AS3 but can't find
I have figured out how to use loader to bring external .swf files into my project, but I have lots of buttons bringing lots of different swf files in and I want to have a home button that will kill them all no matter what order they have been loaded in. Here is my code so far.... returns errors (but it still works) and will cause trouble as I get more .swf's loading. I would really like to keep track of the last loader loaded and be able to move forward and backward through the order and also kill them all at once?

I just started playing around with exporting some of my older Flash projects as android apps. I have one in particular that is a music player. It works great but the back button on my android device just backrounds the app. This is actually what i want since its a music player but would still like to be able to kill the app completely with a button on the stage. I dont know if anyone has seen the siriusXM app. When you hit the back button it asks if you want to exit the app (kill it) or just minimize. I sorta want to do the same thing but simpler by just having a kill app button the stage. I cant seem to find how to do this. I created a button called exit_app. Im assuming I need to make an event listener of some sort and create a function that runs when the button is pushed. I found this snippet that refers to the back button killing the app. Id like to modify it to perform the same action when I press my kill app button.
