ActionScript 3.0 :: Drag And Drop HitTestObject Interference

Mar 15, 2010

I am working on a multipage Flash piece in Actionscript 3.0. I have a drag and drop game inside it. My goal was that there were two correct answers (owlBtn & cougarBtn, both are movieclips not buttons) and there are two hitTestObjects (box1 [top movieclip] and box2 [bottom movieclip]). I am trying to write the code so that if the owl or cougar are dropped in box1, the label beneath the box appears and the movieclip snaps to box1s dimensions. This of course, is the desired reaction for box2 as well. I only have two functions, a start drag and a stop drag, and a wicked long if statement.Yet, I have this problem. Whatever the user puts either the owl or the cougar in box1 and then proceeds to put the correct answer in box2, the correct answer snaps up and locks in box1.

DragNDropProcess.doc is a word document that has images that show what is happening.And this is my if-statement. Someone I was talking to, suggested that it's the hitTestObject that is still active once a drop has been made and this is messing up the rest of the code. If this seems like a solution, is there anyway to remove the active state of a hitTestObject, once the hit has been made? Or make it null? Flash tells me I can't just attach a null to it, so I'm just stuck as to how to continue.[code]

Actionscript :: Safari WIndows And Transparent Flash - Reducing Interference By Using Tags As Opposed To Scripts To Embed The Flash?

Jan 20, 2010

// Edit: The issue now appears to be confined to Safari for Windows.

Around the time Safari for Windows 4 came out I started hearing from users that wmode=transparent was no longer working in Safari.I have tried reducing interference by using tags as opposed to scripts to embed the Flash but with no success.An example is here: [url]... alternately embedded with script at http://hiv411.org/

All videos use wmode=transparent and are embedded via tags. All work fine in every browser I have except Safari.Code looks like so on safari.php

ActionScript 2.0 :: Take A Static Text Field, Convert It Into A Button, And Use It As A Button,but Button Not Working ?

Mar 7, 2010

I want to take a static text field, convert it into a button, and use it as a button. I need it static, because I changed orientation, and I do not know how to do that otherwise. The problem is, even though I converted it to a Button symbol, it does not work when I test the movie. It works fine with "Enable simple buttons", but when I test it, the button is not there, no change in mouse cursor, no reaction at all.So this is what I did:

Made text. // static, not selectable, Orientation: vertical left to right, / //rotated; Two filters: Drop Shadow and Glow;

Converted text field to Button - Symbol (scrollBT)

Editing the Button,I put the same content (the static text field) in all four frames: No luck, not working. without the Hit frame filled (which I think doesn't really make a difference): No luck, not working.Tried again, converting the static text field in the button into a Graphic Symbol: No luck, not working.Tried again, and put some differences in the frames for "ON" and "OVER" etc.: No luck, not working.Tried again, duplicating a similar, working button, edited it, and: No luck, not working.

To the button itself and the AS: The button will be a scroll-button for a text field, with different scroll speeds on rollover and press, but nothing else. The code for that I have (I think). It's something like (and please excuse my incorrect syntax here, but I'm typing from memory; still, I use the Script-Assistant and my syntax is apparently correct; it's also working with other buttons):

on {rollOver} {
function (scroll) {
textfieldtxt.scroll - = 1;}[code]....

I'm at the end of my wits. The only difference I can tell from other (working) buttons I did the same way, is that the scrollBt does not do anything except scrolling, while all of the others have frame actions (gotoAndplay etc.) associated with them.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Text Color In Previous Button When Click A New Button?

Mar 11, 2010

If I have say 7 buttons, each containing text that changes color on rollover using the "Up" "Over" and "Down" keyframes in the buttons' timeline.  Is there a simple way to get the button's text to change color when clicked, stay that way, and then change back to the original color once one of the other 6 buttons are clicked?
 
The only thing I can come up with is writing pages of code for each button that changes the color of every other button regardless of whether it was active.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Button Functions - When Click The Button, The Mc Does Not Stop Playing And The Text Does Not Show Up?

Nov 8, 2009

I'm designing an interface for a class, and the buttons that I am using all have multiple functions.For example, when the story button is clicked, I need the mc to stop playing and change to text (in the same window/screen, just no mc playing).  The mc is 31 frames long, but if there's a way to just make it loop continuously until told not to, Currently, my code looks like this:

stop();
story_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,story);
function story(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(32);}credits_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,credits);[code]...

When I click the button, the mc does not stop playing and the text does not show up.

ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX] Transparent Button - Floating Text With Button Capabilities

Nov 23, 2003

I really need to make a transparent button, so it needs to just look like floating text but with button capabilities. But I was confused about a couple things: Initially I was using the "FPushButtonSymbol" but was unable to make it transparent, although I tried like this:

[Code]....

This left some shadow though So, I utlized a post from ezboard.com, which said to just make a square and then do Insert->Convert to Symbol and make it a button symbol. When I converted into a symbol, I also exported it for use with ActionScript. So I have been making instances of my new button (TermButt).... But can I still use generic button functionality like labeling, text fonts/colors, button size:

Flex :: 4 - Add An Extra Text Field To The Button Component And Dynamically Change Text?

Jan 27, 2011

I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.

Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button Triggers Text With Invisible Button?

Oct 12, 2008

I am a Flash novice who has worked through a couple of the standard introductory books on Flash in Actionscript 3 and some of the online tutorials. However I cannot work out how to do the following: A button A (I know how to design buttons including invisible ones) is on the stage. A user clicks on this button which then causes a text to appear at another location of the stage. This text includes an invisible button B. The text tells the user to click on it with the result that the text, including the invisible button B, disappears but if the user reclicks button A then the text with button B should appear again.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mouse Over Button To Change Text In A Text Field?

Nov 4, 2010

when it comes to flash but managed to learn enough this past week to get a simple website up (getting laid off so scrambling to get portfolio online!). I have an upload test at lisedupuis.net. In my work section I have a bunch of thumbnails (buttons) for all of the video. Basically, I want to add a text field under the video player which will contain a movie clip name. I want to set it up so that when you mouse over the thumbnails the text changes to the correct movie clip name. I thought maybe creating an event listener might work but can't seem to figure out how to write it. Been looking online and not finding exactly what I need and I am in a huge rush.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Button Only Appear When Text Is Larger Than Text Field?

I have a dynamic text box that acquires text from a txt file.

Sometimes the text is greater than the text field so I want to be able to show a page up and page down button. However I do not want these displayed if the text does not exceed the field.

Currently the buttons are always displayed.

I understand how to get the text field info, I do not understand the "easy" bit of only loading the buttons if the text field size is exceeded.

I have a project that has a heap of variables that I have created for workd definitions.  I have made a dynamic text box so it just loads up the correct text from the variable. NOW, question is I want to use a listener? (A href?) to know if the user is clicking on a word inside the dynamic text box. There are some words in some of the definitions that I hav also written separate variables and definitions for.  e.g. in the definition for promotion var w5="Promotions"; var def5="Promotions are where your business tries to increase the sales of a particular item through offering a good deal, advertising or a special display.There is the word advertising, I want to call a function that will then bring up the variable for advertisiing and so change the text in the dynamic textbox

Tried adding root, this, stage, and none of them help...Always comes up with "Access of undefined property instanceName through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton" I need to write several of these so, naming the textfield inside a button should be the most efficient way...right???

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Text To A Button?

Jul 12, 2010

I am trying to create a button with some text on it that I can specify in code. So far so good. The trouble starts because in the over state I need to change the color of the text. further complicating this is the fact that I need to be able to disable it and when disabled show it's over state.

At first I had a text label and the button and I would change the color manually on mouseOver and was removing the button and text and re-adding what I needed when I disabled and enabled the button. This created some odd situations with buttons getting stuck or not changing back on reenabling.

i then tried to add the correct color to the different sates of the button, in an effort to simplify things using the myButton.upState property. it spat back:

1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.

I take this to mean that what i am accessing is some type of read only object.

here is what i have:

Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.display.Sprite;

.FLA - How Does The Button Instance Appear As The Caption In The Text Box

I am trying to learn Flash and as soon as I think I am in good shape, comes along this "curve ball". Take a look at the .FLA from this site ([URL]) How in the world do the alpha buttons get their captions? I understand the numeric ones, but alphas completely baffle me as there is no code (that I can find) that sets them. I have deleted all of the Actions, I have deleted virtually everything there is, and I still can't figure out how does the button instance appear as the caption in the text box.
