I am trying to place buttons inside a movie clip to control the timeline of the same movie clip. This does not seam to work like buttons on the main timeline. When I play the movie the cursor does not turn into a hand and the rolloever affects only sort of work. I have read about controling the movie clip with buttons on the main timeline, but I need one of the buttons to change halfway through the movieclip. I want to be able to jump to interior shots while in the exterior section and vice versa. It would seem that button would work the same way inside a movie clip as they do on the main timeline, but that does not appear to be the case. I am using CS3. Action scrip 2.0 is selected, but I could change it to 3.0 if it would make a difference.

Having a bit of a problem with a project. At the moment I have a draggable map which is a movieclip, within the movieclip I have added a range of icons for hotels, restaurants, etc.I am having a problem linking these icons so that they will take you to the correct point on my main timeline. I've converted the icons to buttons and added the script below, but it doesn't seem to be picking up that the icon is a button. I think it may have something to do with it having a start/stop drag on it.

basically, i have made my web pages, and converted them into Movie Clips,i load them via actionscript 3.the problem i am gettin is that how do i make the buttons active inside the different pages ( movieclips )... the buttons are not made from buttons, but they are also made from movie clips.i can make the menu bar work fine, to load each page, but cannot get the movieclips(buttons) to become active inside another movie clip.

I am practicing AS3 (after years of AS2) and am having trouble having a button inside a movie clip talk to another movie clip on the main timeline. Here is the code:
OneButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, OneButtonClicked);
function OneButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void
{
MovieTarget.gotoAndStop(1);
[Code]....
The code above works, but if I put OneButton and TwoButton inside a movie clip, I know longer can target MovieTarget and MovieDescription. The reason I want to put OneButton and TwoButton inside it's own MC is so I can dim each button after it is clicked by toggling the playhead inside that MC.

ActionScript Code:
for(i = 1; i <= 27; i++){
this["build" + i].onPress = function(){
buildMenu._x += 380;
}
}
I have 27 buttons on a menu generated by a for loop. When the button is clicked it moves the menu +380 pixels. Now to shorten my code I moved the buttons inside the menu movieclip. Intance name: "buildMenu"
This means I only have to move the menu rather than the menu plus each individual button.
The code below works fine but I don't want to have to write this 27 times as each button will be calling much more than just "buildMenu._x += 380;"
ActionScript Code:
buildMenu.build1.onPress = function(){
buildMenu._x += 380;
[Code].....
I'm stuck on combing the this["build" + i]" with the menu movieclip instance "buildMenu"

I recently started working on a project using Adobe Flash Pro cs5, the one thing that i am stuck on though is trying to call a button from inside a movieclip. I have an example of what I'm working in a zip file. Its just a scrolling pane with 10 buttons inside. I just need to know how to call for the buttons to link to other frames in the timeline

Essential what i am trying to do is have a scrollable box with a list of names that the user could click a name and proceed to an info page. Currently i have a movie clip containing all my buttons in a list, and then i am using a scroll pane to scroll up and down my movie clip. The issue is i cannot utilize the buttons i put in the movie clip. I found this process in a different forum on this site but they wouldn't say how to finish it.

I have an mp3 player that sits off stage. There's a tab sticking out for it. When you moust over this tab (which is inside the mp3 player mc) I need the player mc to gotoAndPlay("over"); which is the player animating onto the stage. Then when you rollOut it will gotoAndPlay("out"); Which is the player animating back off stage. Now I can do all of this easy, but then none of the buttons inside the mp3 player mc don't work because flash thinks the whole movieclip is one big button.

when I leave a window with flash content, in this case, a scrolling movie clip with buttons inside set to hyperlink popups (only 1 hyperlink is set so far): [URL] the flash content will disappear. So if I go back to the window, I have to reload the page to get the flash to appear again. Same thing happens if I minimize the window, when I bring it back up, no flash, and I have to reload the page. The menubar with the boxes at the top is flash as well (different swf) and that doesn't have this problem.

I am attempting to have the main timeline move from a stopped position over a movie clip to frame 1, where my start menu is.The code I'm using does move the timeline but in doing so it somehow breaks the 4 buttons I have in frame 1.
My code in the movie clip:
stop()
function replayMovie(event:MouseEvent):void

I have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0

I am creating a navigation bar in Flash (which will then be used in Dreamweaver). When you mouse over each topic in menu (ex. Products), i want it play a movie clip (so it shoots out a sub-menu underneath). so far so good, but the only thing is, the sub-menu won't stay open in order for me to click on buttons in it. For each button, I assigned it the Behavior to go to a url. Also, I tested the buttons within the mc and they don't seem to direct me to url. do you think maybe it's because it's nested within the movie clip?? Is there an easier way to go about this?

I used the Kirupa Tutorial for Advanced Rollovers to create my navigation menu and within one of the movie clips I have additional buttons that show up on the roll over.I know that you need to place the onPress code on the frame that the buttons actually live. I have a trace("mix_btn: "+mix_btn); to find out if the button is being found.
My problem is that I dont know how to get the code below to actually dynamically load and external SWF into a container on the main timeline. A friend of mine suggested a MovieClipLoader or onLoadInit Handler but I have no idea how to use those. (I'm a noob and proud of it!). (this is my latest version of a onPress.)
Code:
mix_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", getNextHighestDepth())
loadMovie("musicMixes.swf", container);

I am trying to figure why my flash product isn`t working. I have my buttons inside a movieclip and my actions on the based level. The actionScript is correct; however when I preview it, it comes out with an error and the movie just playing over and over again even with stop actions.

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

I have a movie clip & inside that movie clip, some Images are moving around the stage. I want these images to act like buttons, so that when we click on them we can go to URL link. First I stopped my movie clip on mouse rollover, which is working fine & for buttons I converted these images to movie clip ( yahoo_mc) & gave action Script
on (release){
getURL("http://www.yahoo.com ", "_parent");

The question is, How do you apply a function to a movie clip inside a movie clip inside a movie clip. So there are three mc and I need to apply the function to the inner most one.
Here is what I have. The 'a' is in 'spin_4' wich needs to be in 'portal'.
ActionScript Code:
for(var i = 1; i<=12; i++){
this.spin_4['a_'+i].onEnterFrame = function(){
if(this.hitTest(_level0.man)){

daFloor[a] = "plan"+a
}

I'm loading an external image into an empty actionscript movie clip (holder1) using MovieClipLoader(); on frame one of my movie and is invisible. Then when the movie plays, there is an empty movie clip symbol (image1_mc) that is placed manually on the stage within another movie clip symbol (flash_mc), and is also on a bottom layer of a mask layer which is animated. Is it possible to place "holder1" inside of "image1_mc" so that I can treat it as if it were an embedded image? In other words, have the image in "holder1" inside of the manually placed movie clip symbol "image1_mc" so that I can use it like a regular symbol on the stage?
