Flash :: Professional - Make Certain Areas Of Image Into Links To Other Sites?
Sep 22, 2011
I am new to Flash but am slowly teaching myself via [URL] etc I have an image that I have added to a website via a content management system and want to make certain areas of that image into links to other sites. I found this page that does the kind of thing I want to do, but it appears from looking at the source code that the person who has done this has cut the image up into several sections in order to fit it into a table: [URL] Is there a better way to achieve the same kind of effect using Flash by making ares of an image into links and keeping the image as a whole?

For example if you had a cat and running a mouse over its tail would make it angry, but running the mouse over it's head would make it happy. I thought it might be done by having layers on a button with 2 hit areas, I mocked it up quickly, but it just played both animations when I hovered over each button.

I'm wondering how to make scaleable flash sites - if you look at this[url]...
Even what ever size it is it uses all the corners and scales the graphics. But the great thing about this is that the menu is not scaled but kept in the same size.

i've been working with flash for a long time, but there's still something that i don't quite think i'm understanding fully. i see many of these sophisticated photography sites programmed so that the photo fills the whole screen (such asand the photo is crisp and clear on any sized monitor.i know how to set the site to be programmed to fill 100% of the screen, and i know how to "trace bitmap" inside of flash so that the photos work a little better. they then act more like vector images than bitmaps which tend to pixelate when proportions are enlarged. but when i use the "trace bitmap" feature, the flash file often becomes very large size in terms of KB, even when some detailed smaller images are traced.

I have created a banner and wanted to randomize the URL that the user goes to. Basically the banner is of a product and it is sold a say 3 places. I wanted to randomize where the customer goes, but one of the three places it is sold. What is the easiest way to implement this? Generate a random number when the page loads and that determines the URL link?

Can I select all areas of the same fill/line colour attributes and tell flash to fuse them together into one new area so removing all the internal vector edges?Where is that command?Desperately wondering how I can reduce the complexity of some artwork, to try and stop CS5 crashing, or CS4 saying out of memory.I have a graphics exported from a mapping program as an Adobe Illustrator file. Lots of adjoining coloured areas, there being five different colours on the map. many of these areas abutt and are the same colour, so the vector lines between them could be removed and hopefully reduce the file size.Explained a different way, imagine a world atlas map with France Germany and Spain all in yellow, can I select them and choose fuse and lose their adjoining boundaries ?Is there in fact a clever way of getting flash to select all areas of the same colour, so I dont miss any , then fuse them ?This assumes that my issues lie with complexity of artwork and not just the number of layers I have in my movie clip.I seem to have reached a limit of Flash CS5, 27Mb file of 16 layers, each layer a movie clip, 5 of which are these coloured areas. This will severeley limit my plans yet I see far more complex diagrams on the net. If this was a Freehand file it would be a few Kb.

aside from using ICE, is there a way for someone to update a flash site with pictures and text who doesn't have flsah installed on their computer? i.e., how can you add as well as replace additional text and image files without doing it in flash and publishing a swf file everytime?

I'd like to create a bunch of objects which the viewer can move around and, at any time, click on some text [within that object] to go to an external URL.
I can get objects to be moved around and can create URL request.I don't know how to combine the moveable object with an external link: for example, a black square with some white text - the whole thing can be moved and the white text is a link [to the web page].

does anybody know a easy way to make image transitions in Flash CS4? without using the timeline and without to much programming. Why invet the wheel again if somebody already has the answer? This is what i want to do:Put images/photos in a folder or import to the Flash libary and then let flash view the pictures with a pre-setted transition. The transitions could be: fade in/ fade out, blur in/blur out, pixel in/pixel out, zoom in/zoom out and so on (with a nice look) I want to select the pictures to be used and then select a transition for each image.
For an example if i wanna do a image header lets say 900x400px and then vĂew my images in the folder with the selected transitĂon. I tried to use the slide presentation feature but the transition looked like PowerPoint, boring and not so smooth. Somebody has a simple and free solution? I know this is not to hard for a experienced Flash user, but im a beginner =).

I have a series of buttons on the screen and a single background. I need a small masked area around each button to zoom in slightly when the user rollsover the button.Im currently using a mask over a copy of the background and then changing the reg point of the copy.I then tween the scale up and down, but if I flick to another button quickly it doesnt update the reg and the image behind the mask for that button is incorrect.I thought there may be a way to capture what was inside the mask and then to convert it to a bitmap, and then scale up the captured bitmap.

I am working on an interactive site to design necklaces. I have hit areas where the jewels (they are movie clips) can be placed. How do I get the movie clips (jewels) that are in the hit areas to stay and the ones that are still in "drawer" to choose from to disappear when I go on to the next step?

i saw a flash movie clip used on a site and I like the way it was designed. The whole length of the file file is stable and then only the image outline slides into view on the screen. i have tried to do that but my whole image slides in just like normal motion tween.

I made a simple test Air application to try different approaches to masking or using hitArea to ignore mouse events over transparent areas of a PNG. Can't seem to find the right mix of things to make it work, nor could I find a succinct example on the web.Clicking on the transparent areas of any of these methods don't result in the click getting handled by the background.Here's the code I have:

This is a very very basic question.I am able to colour and otherwise manipulate elementary vector objects, such as rectangles. Yes, I know how to use the colour panel and the fil land ink pot tool. However, sometimes I can colour a vector shape drawn with the pen tool and sometimes I cannot. It seems completely random.In detail: select keyframe on an empty layer.I make a triangle with the pen tool, and a small circle shows completion. I get a triangle.This is coloured not for the stroke but for the layer. It seems to exist in two densities - a layer coloured line for drawing, a thicker, same-coloured one after selection.However, neither the ink bottle nor the fill tool do anything. I can set the colour in advance, or after the event, through the colour panel or otherwise, nothing. A gradient fill does not even show the guide lines for the fill tool.

I'm working on for a flooring company. They want a Flash movie that allows the user to change the look (product and color) of different areas of the floor.I have a menu on the left side that designates the three different areas of the floor. I have the two products along with color swatches along the top. I currently have each of the three areas as separate movies that load into a main movie.These three area movies each contain the color swatches on the top as buttons to change the color of that area using "On Release > Go To Frame Label" actions that displays each of the different colors. These movies each load on a different level based on the selection of the left side menu.I want the user to be able to go to each of the three areas and change the product/color attributes without losing what they had already done. For instance, if they choose PRODUCT A in RED for AREA 1, then they want to change the product/color on AREA 2, I still want the movie to display PRODUCT A in RED for AREA 1, etc.The problem I run into is that when you go back and forth between the three areas, the navigation only controls what movie is on the top level and doesn't allow the user to go back to a previous area and change the product/color attribute.

I am trying to make a quiz on metals. I have several elements which i want to fall into multiple target areas (e.g. the target areas are shaded grey in the following swf; metal_mc, nonmetal_mc, metalloid_mc). I can make individuals match to target areas (as there are tutorials for that) but i want each one to be able to slide in to any target area (and someday i want to create a solve button which will then place each element in the correct place). have started all over and have designated only chlorine to move (for the moment) but how do i code it to allow it to fall into any of the grey areas?
var objectoriginalX:Number;var objectoriginalY:Number;chlorine_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);chlorine_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);function

Working on the following site [URL] On the "What we Do" page (one click to the right) each company logo is linked using the Action Script 2 below. Only the "Zipfizz" button works though. The rest of the buttons only work very rarely. I made a stock button from a white box then turned the opacity to 0. Put one over every logo with the proper dimensions and gave them the right instance names. If you click the logo repeatedly in different areas the link will sometimes work. Anyone have an idea what's going on? I not very familiar with AS2, only AS3 but the site was built by another designer awhile ago.

I read messages here that use applescript but i dont understand it too well so what id like to know if possible is the applescript, what it does and do i apply it to the button in my projector or do i tell the button to look at the applescript or what? I guess thats it for now.
