I have a flash website which has a combobox. The combobox has stopped working while I was editing and designing the website. You can see the combobox with the side arrow but when you click on the drop down arrow nothing happens.

My problem is that I have a countdown for a variable called health, that works fine, it decrease the score over time, my problem is that I'm trying to have a button, that when clicked increases the health variable by 50, it works fine in Debug, it shows that the variable is being updated, but when I run it normally, it just doesn't update. Here is the offending code:
ActionScript Code:
public function countdown(e:Event)

I have a movieclip being used as a button. After a random amount of clicks the button stops working. In other words, the mouse will become a hand when hovering over the button but no clicks are registering to fire the function. I've even clicked it 40 times and it will work but then suddenly, bang!, it stops working. Heres the function that adds the btn, listener, animates it into the screen and also adds text.[code]...
View 3 RepliesI have converted line to movieclip. Now I want to detect click and drag on line not on whole movieclip how to add listener just to the line ?
View 1 RepliesI have produced a Flash movieclip, containing a fair few layers, including masked layers, actionscript etc. One of the things it does is allows the user to click and drag a number of movieclips and drop them anywhere within the mc, but if they drop them on specific drop targets then some actionscript (AS2) kicks in, stops the drag object from being draggable again and advances through its frames to basically 'enlarge' the drag object and play a sound to show the user they've hit the right mark. This all works perfectly on its own, or in a browser window etc.
The problem I have is when I try to insert the Flash movie into an Adobe Captivate 4 e-learning package. Things work ok apart from when you drop the dragged object onto a drop target, nothing happens. The actionscript doesn't execute. Would the fact that the movieclip is (probably) sitting within a container (the Captivate e-learning package) be causing the problem? If so, how do I get around this issue?
I have a custom component, containing a List displaying items from an XMLListCollection:
[Code]....
Also if I click twice, only 1 mouse click will cause my custom event to be dispatched (because obviously there is no change between the items). how to make my List only react to mouse clicks? UPDATE: Yes, I've tried using "change" event for the List before, but then I have the problem that it is fired, even if the List scrollbar is clicked.
Lets say i have a button on frame 1. And if you press it normal, you ll get to frame 2. But then if you click it on another way, you ll get to frame 3. How do i do that easy?! With another way i mean like shift click or ctrl click or is it an easier way?

View 1 RepliesI created a simple video and I tried attaching a mouse click event to it but the event doesnt fire. Here is my code:
var connection:NetConnection;
var stream:NetStream;
var video:Video;
[code]....
why wont the mouse event work?
I have the following code from Adobe:
myListener = new Object();
myListener.click = function(evt){
trace(evt.type + " triggered");
}
myButton.addEventListener("click", myListener);
But this does not work though the btn on stage have the same Instance name as in code.
how I can keep my cursor an arrow when I mouseOver a button or mc, instead of it changing into a hand.

View 1 RepliesI'm new to CS5 and AS3, I'm creating an educational game for a project and have used the code snippets (with minor tweeking) to create a drag and drop question where the user has to drag a shape to the right amount of corners. (The game is for 4-7 year olds)I've got all of the drag and drop to work, however I am struggling with a way to use a submit button to lead the user to a seperate page (frame) that will give them feedback.
View 5 RepliesMy DateChooser code and its style code is shown below:
<mx:DateChooser id="dc" cornerRadius="0" bottom="0" width="100%" allowMultipleSelection="true" allowDisjointSelection="false" styleName="dateChooserGradient" change="fetchDateAgenda(dc.selectedDate)"/>
And the dateChooserGradient:

weekDayStyleName: myWeekDayStyleName;

arrowColor: #062338;
arrowAlpha: 0.1;

What I actually want for my arrows is a transparent background, with borderthickness to be 2, and the arrows and bordercolor to be #062338. Also if I can make the width and height of the arrow itself a bit bigger then what it is as default.
have the indicator arrow go to the button that was last clicked after rolling out of the menu.I have lost track of what all i have tried.URL...
View 1 RepliesI made an image of an arrow and it is set as a button, not a movie clip.
I have made it so one of my scene loops, frames 65 to 85 and added a button to go to the next scene which is at frame 86.
The code I used is
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(86) ;
}
But when ever I test the scene I get an error saying "Mouse events are permitted only for button instances".
I am using ActionScript 2.0
I'm trying to basically make an arrow in the middle rotate till it points at the button you rolled over. Each button gives a value for "rot" when you roll over it. 0 degrees is up. I dunno if that's important or not. It's probably always up = 0... heh. Anyway this is the a/s for the "arrow" in the middle. It's instance is arcpoint. Here it is:
[Code]...
I know some of this stuff could probably be shortened but this is how I got it working so far. The problem is the second half of the a/s. The part where it picks a direction clockwise or counter. If it goes clockwise (which I had it working fine at the start) it points at the button fine.But the problem kicks in when it tries to go clounterclockwise. It will always pass the button and point down and flicker back and forth.
Edit: Ok I'm surprised people are even looking at this at 1 am but thats beside the point of this edit. I think it has something to do with the else if statements conditions overlapping so that's what makes it wiggle back and forth. Then again I could be wrong. I'm trying to analyze the conditions but my brain hurts and it's early (or late...).
I'm rather new to AS3 but I have to make a gallery like on this website. [URL]. I have only 4 pictures and 4 buttons but I have also two arrows on each side. I would like to make it in a main timeline. Like an easy animation and than with as3 send user to one of those four pictures when he is clicking on buttons.
View 1 RepliesAfter I drag and drop a label(or other UIComponent) in a container, i want to double click the label to show me an alert. well it doesn't work.
i've tried in the dragCompleteHandler to put event.dragIntiator.addEventListener or event.currentTargetaddEventListner but it doesn't work. Also i enabled the DoubleClickEnabler and still nothing?
This feels pretty hacky, but don't have a better way yet. I put an invisible button on the stage behind the drop down and gave it the onclick event to close the menu. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Seems like it is being covered up by something occasionally, but there is nothing there to cover it up and it is VERY inconsistent as to what mouse locations it does and doesn't work in.

View 2 Repliesi want a button in a mvie clip which moves the main movie clip to certain frames. THIS I CAN DO.
However when i add drag and drop code to the main movie clip (of which this button is inside) the button no loger moves to the frames but the drag and dropworks.
i want to drag and drop a movie clip with a button inside this which changes the main movie clip. what do i need to add?
In Flex 3, I have an ItemRenderer that has a button in it. I want users to be able to click and drag this Renderer, but also just click the button. Right now it's working with the Renderer listening on "MouseMove" to initiate drag and drop, and the button listening on "click". However this is very screwy. If somebody is dragging a scroll bar and comes anywhere near that renderer, MouseMove gets fired on the renderer and initiates dragging.
(or if somebody is resizing a HDividedBox, basically if someone initiated a click anywhere in the app and rolls over this renderer, we get unwanted dragging. The alternative is listening on MouseDown instead of MouseMove, which fixes the previous issue, however the nested button loses it's click. I can click on the button, but the renderer just thinks it's time to Drag.
I'm building a flash app that has some draggable buttons on it and I want them to behave like this:
You click on it, ClickEvent1 happens, You click and hold on the button, you can move it. If you release from the hold, it does NOT trigger the ClickEvent
I'm running into the logic problem of not knowing whether a user is just clicking or starting a drag event. Does anyone know any logic to get around this issue? I have thought of alternatives such as placing regions of the button that are only draggable or only clickable, but I've seen this type of functionality in other flash apps and I'm wondering how it is accomplished.
I am trying to build a website that uses the XML menu in kirupa tutorials. However, I am trying to customise it but I am having problems trying to solve this impossible task! Basically, instead of it being a drop down menu, I am trying to make the menu work on Click instead on RollOver. When the user clicks "on" a link, the link will keep an on state. And when the user clicks on the sub link, that sub link will keep an "on" state.
However, when the user selects a different menu item on the main level, the other "on" states will turn off. So basically I am trying to set up perhaps a variable that remembers which menu item is on and loops through the same level and automacally switches the other items off. Is that confusing? I AM!
I use a flash header on my website with a slideshow and i want to create a drop down menu. I have created a movie clip for this menu and can get it to drop down but when i attempt to add buttons for links to other pages within the website on the menu i get errors and the menu blinks.
