Flash8 :: Button Outside A Movieclip To "gotoandplay" Inside The Movieclip?
Aug 12, 2010
I have a frame with a movieclip in it (named "theclip" in the library and has the instance name of "guy"). The movieclip has two frames with stops on them. The second frame inside this movieclip has the label "guy2"
Now back in the basic frame i also have a button (outside the guy movieclip) that i'd like when i press it it jumps to the "guy2" frame of the "guy" movieclip.
Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("guy2");
}
what do i add to the script that makes it refer to the movieclip? Is there a line like the _root or _parent and so on?

I have been using TweenLite for all of my easing. I was wondering what the code is for having a button inside a movieclip not active while the movieclip is tweening.Then when the movieclip does finish tweening the button then becomes active.

How can I get a button inside a movieclip link to a frame in another movieclip on the scene? I tried this code:
function gotoCenter(event:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).centermc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
skruetest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoCenter);
..where "skruetest" is the button, "centermc" is the movieclip where I want to go to frame 2. I don�t get errors with this code, but nothing happens when I click the button. What can I do?

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

Is there a simple gotoAndPlay code to tell a scene what scene to go upon completition?I know they automatically go to the next scene in the timeline, but I have multiple scenes that I want to play through and all link to the same scene. I want to do this without a stop(); and without the user having to click a button or movieclip...

I have a simple getURL button within a movieclip within another movieclip. Does anyone have any clue why this isn't working? The button is in the top layer of the child movieclip, and the child movieclip is in the top layer of the parent movieclip, so what am I missing here? I attached a simplified fla to show the issue. In the end, the main red box will be a country on a map and the popup box will contain info about the country and links to pictures and sites.

A movie clip called "Symbol_4" contains all of the navigation and frames of my movie.inside of Symbol_4 is a MC called "bottom scroller" which contains "imgbar" which contains "bar" which has a bunch of buttons in it.I want those buttons to link to different frames in the main "Symbol_4" MC.
I've tried putting code on a button like this
Quote:
on (release) {
tellTarget (this._parent._parent._parent) {
}
[code]....
There are no errors in any of this code, but nothing seems to work?!

I have a button inside another button which is inside a movieclip. *whew*I have it so that when you click on the movieclip, a dialog box pops up. I have two buttons on the dialog box, but for some reason you can't click on them and when you do, the dialog box just disappears. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about, so how do i get the "YES/NO" buttons to work? Oh, the buttons are not included in that Graphic

I'm adding a MovieClip with with the following code in the main timeline:
var mcCiclo_01:mc_ciclo=new mc_ciclo;
function ciclo(event:MouseEvent):void{
addChild(mcCiclo_01);
}
I want to use a button inside that movieclip to link to an external web page. I was able to do that with dot notation if the movieclip was "fisically" in the main timeline but this way doesn't work.

I've got a movieClip with some Actionscript applied to it (to make it rotate, stop onMouseOver, and continue onMouseOut).Now, I basically want a button inside that movie clip - applied to the object that's spinning.Whenever I put the button inside the movieClip, Flash doesn't recognise it. According to the SWF, the button doesn't exist.So, how do I get a button in a movieClip that has Actionscript applied to it?Or, am I going about this the wrong way and there's an obvious answer that I'm missing?(My idea is, for those who watch Stargate, to have the inner chevron ring spin, for it to stop spinning onMouseOver and then have the user click a chevron

I'm trying to add an event listener to a button inside a movieclip. I have a movieclip called MainMenuGraphic that I get from the .fla library, and inside that movie clip is a button named btnNew. When btnNew is pressed the mouse event is supposed to trigger a handler that runs a trace, but I have not been able to get that trace to show in my output window. This is my code:

I have made a sort of drop down menu of a movieclip. There are actually two, the first one named list_over_mc is only to detect when the mouse is in the area for when to drop down the menu (onRollOver) and the other one, list_mc, is holding the menu itself. The problem is that when the menu is down nothing happens when I click the button (now named knapp1_btn). I have tried with another but with the same sort of script (but placed outside of the movieclip list_over_mc) and that works so I'm guessing it is because the button is "over" the other movieclip.

I want to know I eat to place action in the button paraMc that he is inside of movie clip for, remembering that the button paraMc only appears in the screen when the clica user in the button in the green color.I already tried to make: para.paraMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,simbolo); but it did not function, The square in the black color is movie clip that it contains a button of it inside, when clicar in the button of green color, the function reproduces movie clip in the gray color and movie clip in the black color that contains the button. the button in the red color calls the function " chega" , the button in the black color that is inside of movie clip also calls this function.

How do you access a button from inside another movieclip?
I have:
_root.bg.B_Start on the stage with B_Start being the instance name of the button on frame 2 of the bg movieclip, which is on frame 2
My code is:
B_Start.onRelease = function() {
trace('ping');
};
I am trying to get ping to be traced when the button is pressed but nothing happens.

I have a movieClip on my main timeline, that I have scripted as follows:
Code:
//IT Button
this.IT_mc.onRollOver = function ()
{
[Code]....
Basically this just makes the movie clip fade to a different color when rolled over. This works fine, but I also have individual buttons inside the movieclip that don't work. They don't rollover, or activate. As if they weren't really buttons. How do I script the internal buttons to "getURL"? I have tried the standard "on(Release)" format of doing it, and that doesn't work.

I have a sound on/off button inside of a movie clip that loads prior to the 'home state' It has a sound loop running and can be turned on and off with the button. However, when you turn the sound button off and return to a button state that it was previously running under, the sound starts up again.
