IDE :: Button - Hit State Works Sometimes?
Feb 13, 2009
I created a button in flash. I gave it a different state for 'over' and 'down' - changing the color and scale respectively, so it looks depressed when you hit it.I then assigned an action to the button so that when it is 'hit' you are taken to another scene. However when you hit the button it goes to the scene but you lose out on the 'hit/depressed' part of the buttons state!? Why?
How do you keep the hit state intact with the button whilst simultaneously assign an action?I understant 'the action' is to go to another scene first, but can it not also show the 'hit state too?[URL]

I need to add a rollover effect to the disabled state of a Spark button. This way, users can rollover the button and know why the button is disabled.I think I would have to override ButtonBase's getCurrentSkinState. Is there anyway to test if a mouse cursor is over a disabled button?

I have a menu with five nav buttons (atcually MovieClips). Each has three frame labels: "on", "stay", and "off". The rollover and rollout animations play flawlessly, but I'm at a loss as to how to give each button a sticky "active" state. I'd like the button to stay in it's active state until another button is clicked, then I would like it to play it's "off" animation. Each MC has this code:

I have a series of buttons inside an array. I am trying to get the buttons so that once they are pressed, they remain in the over state. Which is a darker color than the up state. So that people know which button they have pressed. Is there an easy way to do this for buttons?

Is there a way of telling a MC button to have a hit state like a normal button? I have some text popping up away from my MC button that is included in the hit state. When I roll over the main button the text pops up. But also, when I roll over where the text pops up it also triggers the pop up animation.

I'm trying to make buttons that involve a character pointing to indicate interaction.When a button is interacted with (mouse over or down) the character's arm points to that particular button. I separated his body, so that it remains constant on the main stage, no matter which button is being interacted with.The problem is, when the user is not mousing over or clicking down on any button, the character has no arms (since only his body remains constant)!How do I resolve this?The only thing I thought of so far is if there's any way to create an up button state that includes the arm (right now I have nothing for mouse up) THAT ENDS when the next button is interacted with. Is that possible? If I put the arm in the up state (in addition to mouse over and down) it stays when the interaction is over, which poses a problem when the user interacts with the next button (the character ends up with double the arms since each button introduces a different set of arms pointing towards that particular button).

I have flip_mc which contains listSide_mc and videoInfoSide_mc both of the above mc's contain a button name spin_btn.My flip_mc should rotate around the y axis and swapping whichever of the 2 (listSide_mc and videoInfoSide_mc) should be visible.All the rotating and adding a child stuff works fine.BUT the whole flip_mc seems to be a button, the spinIt function runs when I click anywhere on the mc, it should only happen when I click the spin_btn buttons.[code]

I have a sub menu with two movie clip buttons, let's call them mc1 and mc2. They both have a MOUSE_OVER event and a MOUSE_OUT event. What I would like is that when mc1 is clicked it will stay in the over state and then if mc2 is clicked mc1 will go back to the out state while mc2 stays in the over state.What seems to be happening in my code is that the MOUSE_OUT event is overriding the MOUSE_DOWN event. So when I take the mouse off after I've clicked mc1 the over state goes away.
Here's my code thus far:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.*
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mc1_over);
[code]....

I have a rectangular shaped button. When someone rolls over it, I want a text bubble to appear to the side of that button. The problem is, the mouse thinks it's over the button even if it's over the side bubble which does not exist in the "Up" state. How can I get the cursor to only detect a button ONLY if it's over any part of the "Up" state and not the "Over" state (which because of the side bubble is larger than the original "Up" state.)
Here is a screenshot of the two button states.[URL]... Even if the cursor rolls over the "Over" bubble (and not the Up state), the Over state still shows up.

I've done the complex rollover tute where the animation plays and rewind when the mouse rolls on and off the button.What I'm trying to do is get button 1 to stay in the down state or clicked state until button 2 is clicked. Once button 2 is clicked, button 1 will play its rewind =true function.I can get the button to go to the down state when I click on it but the rollout function is overwriting the on release function as soon as I roll of the image.

i realize this probably a fairly simple question and also that i should have used movieclips for my buttons but i got lazy and used buttons for some of them
is there an easy way to make my button stay "on" after its clicked? i need something fairly easy that i can then go apply to a bunch of buttons. obviously it need it to turn off once another button is clicked as well.

Currently, when a button is in it's down-state, the AS disables the button. But since it needs to be active, i have to find a way to make the current 'down' button remain down during onRollOver and onRollOut.
button.onRollOver = function() {
this.over_holder._alpha = 100;
this.down_holder._alpha = 0;

I've made a nav bar using buttons, and have them working just fine for Up, Over, Down, and Hit. (okay, so hit isn't a state, but I'll count it is as the fourth one)Problem is, once clicked on and produces a change in the flash, I want the button to not return to the Up state, but to visually be different so you can tell you are in that section.First problem is I can't for the life of me think of what that state is called. (Makes it hard to search for, and my poor little brain is fried right now.)Second problem is, can I force a button to not go back to up state? (either the over or down state would work fine).Or do I have to detect the click and then make a call to swap out the button file for the relevant section?

Okay so basically I have two buttons that go to the same destination, what I want to do is if one is ROLL_OVER'd then I want the other one to go to the roll over state as well. I figured out that part, what I cant figure out is why it's not going back to the upState, the regular state, I mean it works if I do gotoAndStop with movie clips, it's just with these darn buttons.

I have a mc button that has two key frames inside the mc, one "on" and one "off" state. What I need it to do is toggle between on and off when clicked. Right now it toggles between on and off when I hover even though I didn't specify it to hover.I am using actionscript 2 and here is what I have on the MC button:
[code]...
So when you click on this button an image gets hidden and when clicked again it appears. I just need the button to toggle between on and off correctly.

Using the Button Class, how would one keep it in its Highlighted, down state after clicking it? Not using SimpleButton or creating a movieclip button but using the provided Button that comes with Flash.

I've been using the following code for a set of buttons that activates/deactivates the buttons so there is only one active button at a time:
[Code]....
I found this code here: [URL] I've been messing with this code for a couple days now and can't seem to figure out how to add a rollover state to this code, everything I try either glitches this code out or doesn't work... So at the moment it does half of what I want (makes it where there's only one active button at a time), what I want to do is to add a Rollover effect to the code above.

I am creating a Map of the USA that has pins (Buttons) that when you rollover them, they activate information for that particular city. Also on the map bottom, is a list of all the city names represented by each pin. These are also buttons. (So there are basically 2 buttons for each city location on the map.)Here's my question...
Q: How do I tell buttonB to activate to it's rollover state when buttonA is rolled over? And vice versa. Since they are buttons and not MC's, my tellTarget is not working.
