IDE :: Hide Buttons On Load / Run
Dec 6, 2009
I've been trying to build an application in flash whereby everything is held on a single frame (the different 'screens' held on seperate layers). My problem is that I want to hide some buttons and other things when the application loads but I can't find anything on it. I have tried an onEnterFrame (AS3 addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME) ) but that didn't hide anything. I tried just having the button.visible = false but that didn't seem to work either. It's probably a stupid question, it's very likely I've missed something in the properties window or something basic, I'm rather new to AS3 and have been working on this for a couple of days now without any success.

I have a menu inside flash. It's a drop down menu and it only shows options when it is hovered over with the mouse.
[Code]...
On the menu I want to have normal buttons but the problems is when I move the mouse over the buttons (Which are ontop of the menu) it thinks I want to hide the menu.

I was looking to make 2 buttons; one that hides a movieclip that is playing on a slide, and one that shows it again. I've heard theres a few ways to do this but none of them are making much sense to me (i previously made some buttons that play, pause and stop a movieclip, and I think I am stuck in the wrong frame of mind to do these next 2 buttons...) How to tackle this task.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to hide the skin in the flvplayback component on ROLL_OUT. SkinAutoHide seems to work whenever it feels like it and sometimes the button controls just stay over the video. This happens in Safari and IE I believe. I am used Actionscipt 3.0OR does anyone know how to get to the display list of the component, where all the names to all the buttons (and skin) is housed, using the instance names from the component fla file does not work. I looked at the documentation and the names of all the button sprites are there, but i need the name of the background that the buttons sit on top of.

Smarter than I Fellows:I've uploaded a source .fla for my project: [URL]I'm trying to get out of timeline based animation and start using AS.... I've been watching adobe tv and reading, reading. I can look at AS and understand it, but am far from knowing where to start when building something.Here for example I simply want my previous and next buttons to display hidden at the beginning of the movie and then show when the user mouses over the stage.
Of course they should also on click let us navigate from slide to slide and the slides will transition in and out on X axis with nice easing and a blur (i'm trying to mimic the action found at FontExplorerX [URL]. Right now, I'm just tying to get my buttons to not appear until mouseover (maybe they should appear on load and disappear after a delay and then reappear on mouseover - the mouseover trigger would be the whole stage for both buttons, not just the specific area).

I am using AS 3 Flash CS4, WIndows XP SP3. I am unable to use the Mouse.hide(); method in many of my scripts. If I add Mouse.hide() to a preexisting script, I get the following error; line1 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method hide through a reference with static type Class. If I add Mouse.hide():void; to a preexisting script, I get the following error: line1 Label must be a simple identifier Once this has happened, if I then remove ALL lines of script from the file...but leave the Mouse.hide(); [or Mouse.hide():void;], and also remove all objects from the stage, when I run the file, I still get those same errors.

What I am trying to do is load 2 different swf's using 2 different buttons.
What I want to happen is when you click on button 1 it loads the first swf and button 2 loads the second swf removing any other swf from the stage first.
The problem I seem to be running into is with the loader. I cannot seem to load the images into the loader without putting them on the stage. And when I try to load the images dynamically it keeps on recreating the swf's by placing another one in the loader even though I am using :
stage.removeChild(loader);
loader = new Loader();.

I am having one problem that I am not having much luck with though, I would like to have the two buttons visible set to false when the movie loads, which I hope would stop the initial flash that happens when the movie loads.

I have my main SWF into which I want to load an external swf...When I've tried using the following code...
var light:Loader = new Loader();
light.load(new URLRequest("light.swf"));
addChildAt(light, 1);
The SWF loads but the buttons inside it do not show. How do I load the swf and have the buttons inside it work? Anything inside of the external swf that is a movie clip works, but I'd like to be able to keep the up/down/over and hit features of the button.

I would like to load one or more buttons at runtime into my main fla. But how? I've figured out how to load an external swf (I suppose that is the way to go for this problem?). But then how do I reference the buttons in the swf?

I want to load a sound to one of my buttons. I think I've got the scripting, but how do you put them "together" snav2.start("snav2"); - (I think)...is my scripting for my sound (where snav2 is my symbol linkage propery name)
and then
on (release) {
getURL("about_us_1.htm", _self);
}
So, where do you put the sound scripting in?

I'd like to learn the correct way to design flash sites in the direction of the Kirupa tutorial found here:Although that's a hellava lot more complicated than what I'm doing now, I see the point of minimizing the layers in my movies as much as possible.So, I've begun using attachMovie to load my movies to the stage at runtime. This has dramatically reduced the layers I had in my main movie. Now, the site has just two layers: one for actions and the other for invisible buttons. The invisible buttons sit exactly where the movie clip buttons will appear at runtime.I'd like to know how I can load the buttons at runtime, basically reducing my main movie down to an actions layer. Is this possible or even recommended as good practice?

A while ago I had a problem. But the solution was beyond my understanding, so that's why I ask it again ...
I have a button named
"Eric_btn",
but in this button I have 3 movieclips due to the shade I had to put in.
The name the hit button =
"Erichit_mc"
Once you have pressed the button I want to load a movie which fades out the 3 buttons. Once the fading out had finished I want it to load a website.

I am working with Flash MX. I am creating a site with a Main.fla which contains buttons to load other SubPage.swf files. For example, I have a Page1 button with the following actionscript code.
on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("page1.swf");
}
It works fine. Now when I work on the Page1.fla, I am trying to load other Movies in the same fashion. It works when I CMD+RETURN to generate the .swf file. However when I CMD+RETURN the Main.fla file and load the Page1 file, the buttons won't load the movies. Is this a Target Path issue? How would I remedy this?

I'm trying to load a predesigned/predefined movie into my scrollpane and I'm not able to.
[URL]
is where my code is. I'm currently able to load an empty button and work through. But I need the code to load test1_btn and test2_btn. The XML file will finally contain just the name(s) of such predesigned buttons (symbols) in the name attribute and the destination link will be in the goto attribute.
