Actionscript 3.0 :: Move Buttons With MC
Aug 2, 2011
relatively new to flash and I'm trying to put together a little interactive map. On this map I have a series of buttons which when clicked display further information on the area it. The map is a movie clip and which can be moved about by dragging and dropping. When I move the map the buttons stay in the position I set them whilst the map move. How could I go about making the buttons follow their set position on the map when its moved.

well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.

I am having trouble with a job I am doing at the moment which has an mc with buttons within it. I want it so that when I roll over the mc it tweens from a small version to a larger version, and on this mc there are some buttons. At the moment I can get the mc to move but the buttons remain inactive and also the rollover states on the buttons don't work. I have attached a simpler version of what I am trying to do to this post.

I'm creating a menu system, the text buttons should, on rollover, move all buttons to the left (of the button currently rolled over) 100 pixels, in the gap created a sub menu running vertically will appear which will break into a 2nd horizontal submenu etc. I'm still in the early stages, and have hit a stumbling block, I placed a trace (this); cmd in root of the roll over function then again in each segement of the IF/ELSE loop inside that fuction. The trace CMD in the root of the rollover gives me the feed back _level0.btn1 or 2 or what ever button I have rolled over but the ones inside the IF/ELSE loop all say _level0.btn0 regardless of the button I roll over!

I am making a menu that consists of 6 different rollover buttons, these3 buttons sit on a path where the graphics look like a road. What I need to do is have an mc of a car that moves along the road. When the car is at button 1, and you mouseover button 2, the car moves towards button 2, then when you mouseover button 3, the car moves towards button 3 etc., all while the car stays on the road (path) that it sits on - so not like a mouse follow but constrained to the path. I also need the car to go in reverse, so if the car is at button 4, and you mouseover button 3, the car will move towards it.

I know everyone has wrote this a hundred times, BUT I just can't get it to work
I have a main content area called MC that is very wide Then a mask around the area I want to see of the MC
I have two buttons set up below the mask for LEFT and RIGHT
How to I make those buttons move the main content, and stop when It gets to the end of the masked area so you dont just keep scrolling
ALL I HAVE in my code right now, is attached the left and right buttons---
on(release){
MC._y = (MC._y)-50;
}
is there more to it than that? How do I stop it?

I am working on a menu that uses a number of these buttons: [URL]
The button works quite well, except that I would like the sub-menu to close up once the mouse clicks elsewhere on the screen. I have tried to find the Action Script for this but have been unsuccessful. What script can I use to cause the menu to close up when a user clicks outside of the button?
I've posted the fla file below.

I'm aiming to create a website that works just like this one[url]...
I want similar features, ie; rotating and expanding text controlled by mouse events and drop downs.
I'm not concerned about the drop downs currently, but for all I can think of right now, I am trying to figure out the best way to complete this task, and the code (AS3) that would be needed.
I've come up with a few thoughts (forgive me as I'm only moderate at Flash- can code, remember most of it, understand it, but can't always come up with the solution off the top of my head)

I have four buttons across the bottom of my scene. When hovered, the buttons "should" animate upwards to reveal more of the button that is hidden. It should stay there until you mouse-out then it should animate to its original position. My problem is it seems that the buttons active area moves with the up and downward animation making it freak out and move very fast up and down as if it is being told to animate back down then triggered to animate back up at the same time. So it looks very bad and unusable. I'm not really sure why it's doing this. It's a little hard to explain so here's a url to download my FLA.

I have 2 buttons that i made an up arrow and a down arrow. I would like them to move an image up or down on mouse click. Although i made the button rollover actions previously and i got the script below from researching online. Now I am not sure if i should even bother with it. I thought if i could get the actionscript to recognize the buttons and tell it what to move the (the ad) I could get them to work. But haven't figured out how to do that and if i have to make custom buttons for this. see what i have below thus far.

I am creating a point and click game using buttons to move through the timeline. I am using AS3 and am not used to it because I used to use AS2.
Here is my script:
intro.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickHandl er1);
function clickHandler1 (event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("one");
[Code].....
It works for the first button, but an error comes up for the next button:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at skunk_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

I'm new to AS3 and I am making a website and I want to animate a button (buttonA), after a certain button (buttonB) is clicked buttonA should move from underneath buttonB and should move to a certain location (it only moves vertically). The movement should slow down a bit when the button reaches it's destination to make the movement look smooth. When buttonA is pressed some other action should be done and buttonA should only be able to get pressed when it reached it's destination below buttonB. And lastly, when ButtonB is pressed when buttonA has reached it destination nothing should happen. And when some other button which is already on the screen (buttonC) is pressed buttonA should be returned to it's original position (after which buttonB can be pressed again to move buttonA)
The current way I am doing it is so: on frame 1 ButtonA is positioned underneath buttonB. Both buttons are on different layers. A new layer ("actions") has this code:
Code:
Select allstop();
buttonB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButtonB);
function clickButtonB(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
On frame 2 the actions layer has a new blank keyframe with this code:
Code:
Select all
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveButton);
function moveButton(event:Event):void {
buttonA.y += slowDown(buttonA.y, 268.35, 8);
);
} function slowDown(begin:Number, end:Number, speed:Number):
Number {return (end-begin)/speed;}
}stop();
When I play it it goes well for the first time, but when I press buttonB afterwards it looks like it goes through all the frames after frame 1&2, then it returns to frame 1 and the position of buttonA is reset and buttonA starts moving to its destination again. I also get this in my output:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

all the tutorials for movement in actionscript seem to use the onclipeven(on enter) as well as only refer to movie clips. so this is what i want to do in the simplest sense.RedButton is starts at position RedA. If you click it on position RedA, it moves to position B. If you click it on Position B, it moves to Position C. If you click on position C, it goes back to B.
I basically want a 7 buttons to move around using actionscript. They each have a their own "home" spot as well as 2 "shared" spots where the active button will sit. i tried a simple function similar to:
red_btn.onPress = function (){
if (this._x = 360)//at active
{[code]....
So theres obviously a huge mistake in my logic because it doesnt work at all, not the mention i dont get any movement, just kinda...teleporting buttons, which is not what i want.

I using a for loop for a redundant action that I want to happen across 5 buttons. OnRollOver the button rotates. OnPress the button moves to a new position. It looks like this:
Code:
for(i=0;i<5;i++){
_root.swatch_mc['swatch'+i].onRollOver = function () {
this.onEnterFrame = function () {[code]....
My problem is this; onPress I want the button to move up (Ive achieved this already). I also want the other buttons to move down onPress (this is my problem). Is there a way have the other 4 buttons move down onPress using the for loop? Or is there another method of doing this?

I have a menu inside flash. It's a drop down menu and it only shows options when it is hovered over with the mouse.
[Code]...
On the menu I want to have normal buttons but the problems is when I move the mouse over the buttons (Which are ontop of the menu) it thinks I want to hide the menu.

1-What is the ActionScript command to move to another scene (like for example if I want that when Scene A reaches frame 340 is moves on to frame 1 of Scene B automatically without presing buttons, what ActionScript should I put in frame 340 of Scene A)?
2-What actionscript code should I put on a button so that when I click it it starts playing Scene X?
I know this should be relatively easy to find, and I promise I'll search next time, but I just don't have much time now

1. When you click on the buttons for 2 and 3, ALL three buttons move to a different part of the screen.
2. When you click on the button for 1, ALL three buttons return to their initial position.
Ideally, when the buttons move they would in fact travel across the screen rather than disappear for an instant and reappear in the new locations. Usually I would do this via a motion tween, but I can't figure out how to incorporate one here without conflicting with the other actions and thus messing everything up! I have to use a site structure similar to the one in the example because I need the intros/outros to be different for each mc.

I've got arrow buttons and a movie clip on my stage. I have an event listener for each arrow button for a MOUSE_OVER event that calls a handler function in my movie clip. The handler functions just call prevFrame(); or nextFrame(); What I want to happen is that the movie clip continues to play forward or backward as long as the mouse is over the appropriate arrow button.
Stage Code:
leftArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, imgBar.goLeft);
rightArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, imgBar.goRight);
Movie Clip Code:
function goRight(event:MouseEvent):void{
this.nextFrame();
}
[code]....
I'm not sure if MOUSE_OVER is the correct way to do this if I want the function to continue as the mouse even only happens once.

I have an animation that I want the user to be able to move back and forth by clicking Next_btn or Back_btn buttons. Here's what I've done.
[Code]...
I can navigate through the movie correctly, until I navigate back to frame 1 ("start"). After this, when I click on the Next button, the movie goes to the last frame without stopping at "KMT2".

how to move an object built from multiple symbols (including movie clips with interactivity) in a timeline other than the root? I tried putting them all in another symbol, but then the interactivity was lost.
On a boad scope, what I'm trying to do is animate a "digital multimeter" out of the way when not in use, and vise versa.

I have six images on a frame as buttons with rollovers making them expand on the button frames. The issue is when the mouse goes over they only expand over the other buttons they are above stackingwise in that layer. I really was hoping to create just a simple bit of code, but it seems that things like containers and children are all needed?[code]The little line of code was my most recent attempt but it pulled up an error about things I have no clue on (1118). Is there a simple code to move the current button on top with out having to say "forget AS3!" and just make a 5 frame webpage a 60 frame one? what is the best format to import videos into a flash project? I went with a swf version, but I was not sure if the mov or other formats would be better.
