I have a button that when you roll over it a big window pops up, but then when you click on it, it pops the window up again, now its not a problem but i would like to know if i can disable the click function somehow. so that only the roll over works.
I know you can probably use a movie clip and just tell it with actionscript to load when rolled over, but i don't know how
[code]How come I cant disable the button by this function?
View 1 RepliesI want to make a scope wich can zoom in on button click and go back to previous stage (zoom out) also by clicking a button.Now i made it work for zooming in (when i click my button it zooms) but when i want to zoom out everything i tried didn't work .Here is the code:
//button for zoom in

I'm doing a basic site with frame labels on the main timeline whose name corresponds to the btn names. A simple otoAndPlay(evt.target.name); I have a basic navigation setup of 7 mcs with mouse eventlisteners for CLICK, ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT.
Example:
prepare.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);plans.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate);retire.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
[Code]....
Does anyone know a better way to do this so when my mcs are clicked they display the rollover content/art? In essence I'm trying to achieve that when the user clicks a btn it goes to that "page" and the corresponding btn stays highlighted. Pretty standard web navigation technique but I just don't know what the best way to do this in flash is and with how my site is setup.
hi,is there disable ctrl+c function? and cutomize this for own function
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to figure out how to disable a button after it is click and then enable it once another button is clicked. I'm stuck on how to enable the button.

I've got a project that consists of a main SWF that pulls external SWFS via an XML document. Within the main SWF are the navigation controls (i.e. next button and back button). When the next button is pressed, it pulls up the 'next' external SWF called in the XML file. When the back button is pressed, it pulls up the 'previous' external SWF called in the XML file.
The external SWF pages contain different interactions (i.e. drag and drop, multiple choice exercises, etc). Is it possible to disable the next button until the user completes these exercises?
If the navigation buttons were contained within the individual external SWFS, I know how I could make this work, but the XML setup has me confused. My only thought is using the Timer class, but that doesn't ensure the interaction is complete; rather, it just means the next button won't work for x amount of time.
I am currently have this script on frame 5, AS3:
var timer:Timer = new Timer (2000,45);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, timerFunction);
timer.start();

i have a music player in my shell that plays background music. In swf files that are embeded (two layers in) I have videos playing.i want to make a button that stops the background music. Its too hard to communicate with the music player which is many layers away so i think i should use stopAllSounds.However, after i press it, it also disables the videos. how do i disable the stop sounds function, so that I can play videos, without turning the background music back on?

I have a small client that needs to put information into Flash and prevent people from printing the document out on their printers.
Of course, you can always print anything you see on your monitor (Print Screen and other apps), but I am only concerned with preventing users from printing from 1) any browser and 2) from the Flash contextual menu.
How I can make it so when the right click is pressed the zoom in/out 100% quality and all that does not show.
View 12 RepliesI am designing a graph to allow line drawing. After the user draws the line, they will drag words (movieclips) from a menu onto to the graph. I am not able to turn of the line drawing function, so when the words are dragged another line is created. I tried to turn off the line drawing onRollOver of the word with no luck. Here is what I'm doing.
Draw line function:
var isDown:Boolean = false;var xPos1:Number;var yPos1:Number;var xPos2:Number;var yPos2:Number;

i have about 40 buttons in one movie clip called showmcall i have a massive movie clip that covers all of the movie clips , i've tried disabling the buttons by disabling the movie clip :
ActionScript Code:
showmcall.enabled = false ;
but that didnt disable the buttons.
In my Timeline there are two keyframes with some complicated functions, but the mistake lays in several lines. In the first one I have:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
var fadein:Tween = new Tween(pictureOne,"alpha",Strong.easeOut,0,1,true);
In the second one I have:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goBack);
function goBack(e:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
The point is to make the Tween from the first frame work only once after opening SWF and to disable it after using te command gotoAndStop(1); from the second frame.

View 11 RepliesI have a combo box in my application. I also have a variable called "Status". I want the combo box to be enabled only when the value of the Status variable is 5 or 6. Otherwise, I should not be able to change the value in the combo box. It should have the previous value only.. I had written a click event to disable the combo box. But even though the combo box is disabled, I get the drop down list of the combo box, and If I select some othe value in the drop down,it changes..Only after that it gets disabled.

View 0 RepliesI have a button that I would like to enable and disable a function within my game. The button is called "flashBang". I'm thinking this may need to be done with global variables to make the switch do this procedure. How would I go about scripting this variable? Also I want to be able to target this function during gameplay, if this function is enabled do this line of code - _root.gotoAndPlay("flash");
The code needs to fit somewhere in here i guess.
//hitTest top + bottom wall
if (_root.ball.hitTest(_root.topwall) or _root.ball.hitTest(
_root.bottomwall)) {
_root.yspeed = -_root.yspeed;
_root.audio.gotoAndPlay("flash_bang");
is there a way to disable a button using another button with action script flash MX .
View 3 Repliescan some one fullscreen and how to disable the esc button?
View 2 RepliesIn my code, when a user clicks on a button, I set the alpha of the button to 50 and set enabled=0. This works to essentially disable and grey out the button. The problem is that even though the button has been disabled, it still sits in the over state until the user moves the cursor off the hit area... Funny, no?
Since you can't tell a button what frame to go to, how do I get it to go back to its up state (without recreating all my buttons as movieclips and doing the whole thing manually)?

if you click on the middle Character a popup window will open at that time i want all other buttons disable so that we cant see the small box on mouseover.[url]...
I have some code similar to the following:
ActionScript Code:
//
//
var box = new Sprite();
box.graphics.lineStyle(10, 0xFF0000);
[code]...
If you click the box, its alpha is set to 1 rather than .1 because of an errant MOUSE_OUT event.What is the right way to fully disable this button when it is clicked?I'd rather not remove the event listeners because I have a bunch of different MOUSE_OVER functions on many different buttons and keeping track of which function is with which button and whether or not the listeners are already assigned seems like way too much work just to properly disable a button.
