IDE :: Import A Swf - Hidden Buttons Still Active
May 14, 2009
I have a timeline with several buttons on it - some if these are created at runtime, and some by putting buttons on the page on frame 1 I then have an emptyMC into which I import a swf that COVERS the whole stage. This all works fine - you can't see anything of the underlying material. However, as you "mouse around" it seems that the buttons that are covered are still active - pointer becomes a hand etc. I can disable the buttons using enabled=false. This is quite invloved, and I would have thought that these buttons wouldn't be active - surely they are covered! How is the possible, and is there a neater way to stop these buttons being active.

The movieclip itself has button functionaliy (ROLL_OVER etc) and is on the stage with a bunch of other movieclips with listeners.The hidden layer of this movieclip off to the side a bit from the main part of the clip, and its getting in the way of other movieclips that also have listeners... so the other movie clips lose their 'functionality' when I'm hovering over them at a spot where the hidden layer is. I need this hidden layer to appear at certain times so I can't get rid of it totally. Currently I am changing the x value of the hidden layer to push it off the stage, and then pulling it back when I need it (and this works) but this seems a bit unnecessary..

I have a window component on my main timeline that gets called up on several instances. When the popup window appears, everything looks fine, except that the user can still click on links that are now behind the actual popup window itself. My question is how do I keep those buttons from being active while the popup window is active?

I'm working on a project for a presentation that has hidden buttons. I want a way that the hidden buttons can be located, if someone else has to give the presentation. I've seen an example where if the user hits the tab key it would cycle through all buttons and outline them in red. I am new to flash and action script and have no idea how to do this.

As I was creating a cheap Flyout Menu I ended up being unable to assing a "global" variable to different buttons.I have a "main button bar" with 5 different buttons wich as you RollOver one brings up another bar with multiple buttons attach to it.
Now these "2nd level" buttons are set in a Movie Clip as this one starts invisible and I don't want people to see the hand cursor over them. I know how to make this happen to each button individually but since I have 8 "2nd level" btns I don't want my ActionScript to be 100 lines long So to put this easier to read and write, to minimize the chances of making mistake I am asking you this: Is there a way to assign a single variable to refer to these 8 different "2nd level" buttons?

I decided to post this question as a new thread since my enquiry is altered.
I got this sliding menu attached ("ActiveButtons.zip") that works according to plan. My problem is that I want the buttons to stay active(red) while the corresponding image is in place. Is this doable with a button?

when a user rolls over a button, the button plays the "open" frame inside the button. When the user rolls off the button, the button plays the "close" frame of the button. When a user presses the button, the button goes to the "dock" frame of the button. Here's the problem : when a user clicks a button, all the other buttons go to their "close" frame when only the button that's previously open when the user clicks a differen button should go to the "close" frame.
More emphatically, a function is needed to check to see if any buttons are in the open state (not a frame 1) when a user clicks a buttons. The way the code is now, when a user clicks a button, all the other buttons go to their "close" frame when only the button that was open should go to their "close" frame. Thus, if any button is not open when a user clicks any button, then, that button shouldn't do anything.

I have buttons inside/on window01/mc that are still active/clickable when the opacity is 0, I basically have a area on my website that if you click it opens the window corresponding to the button. how do I stop this? I only want the buttons to work when window01 is opacity 100. I'm not a pro at AS so please if you reply, walk me through it a bit or edit my code. [URL] just click in the blank black area below the nav bar and the window will appear. The normal way to get to this window is click products than the buttons.
Code: Select allimport gs.TweenLite;
btn06.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f2);
function f2(e:Event){

I have buttons in my container that fade out at one point of my website. But they stay active as obviously the movie that is playing at that point is loaded into the same container. How do I stop the buttons from being active?

I'm currently working on an AS3 scripted drop down menu and for the most part it works exactly like I had envisioned with one small hiccup. The issue I have is if you accidentally navigate away from a button that creates one of my drop downs before the script has finished running the other drop down buttons will drop down but not be active until you go back to the original button and finish the script. What I believe will fix the problem is to disable the other main menu buttons until the script has finished. I could just disable at the beginning of the script and enable at the end but there are 5 flyouts and 9 buttons on the main menu. This would add up to a ton of extra code. So how could I create a block of code that disables the buttons and another block that will enable them at the end of the script but be able to call them in each script?
And here is my site that I'm currently working on. [URL]

I tried doing a search here and online. Most of what I found was buttons controlled via XML.I'm trying to make an "active state" button.I have 3 buttons. When a user clicks on the button it stays an active color. When the user selects another button the active color goes back and the current button stays on the color.Does that make sense?here's the code I have so far:
Code: Select allbutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, redover1);
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, redout1);
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, redclick1);

when I load a movie in a container in the main swf, the buttons below the loaded movie stay interactive and conflict with the loaded movie. is there a way to get around this,deactivating or pausing the main movie so when you load a movie in the container, the main movie doesnt interfere with the loaded one?

Below is the code I have for my buttons.I have 3 different swfs loading in once each corresponding button is selected (CLICK). I also have rollover and rollout or idle states. Now the dilemma: Once a button (mc) is selected (CLICK) I need it to remain in its rollover state. Once another button is selected I need the previously highlighted button to switch to idle state and the new button to be highlighted... Sounds like the most basic, simple, AS3 101 question, but alas I am hitting a wall. Based on my provided code what is the best option for this, an array with an active state on the timeline, a toggle with Boolean ect, ect...?
Code:
var Hotspots:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(Hotspots);
moreInfo_btn.alpha = .5;
moreInfo_btn.buttonMode=true;

im having trouble making the buttons within my drop down menu active.basically, on the main timeline, i have a movieclip, and within it have a button that once u roll over it, will go to another instance in that timeline to display a drop down menu located below it (with buttons). these buttons do not perform any actions to the main timeline regardless where i place the actionscript or how i point to those buttons.

I'm looking for an AS3/XML parsing pro to help me with an issue I'm having. The following xml file loads 7 icons ("url") into an array. What I want to do is create an activestate using child ("activestate") that replaces the "url" icon when clicked. I have no idea what the best way to do this would be. I've tried everything. The reason for this application is if i decide to change up the content down the line I won't have to recode anything. Just update the icons.

I have created an image gallery that loads from an XML file using mostly previous Kirupa threads. From Scotty's code (I think -- my head is moosh now) I got numbered buttons for navigating between the images.Each button is a movie clip with different labeled frames for "up", "active", "hover", and "down" states. I'd like to have the numbered button change color when its image is on view and then change back when a different image loads, and I can't figure out how to do that. I know part of the problem is that the onRollOut function overrides other changes, so I'm willing to give up the rollover effect if necessary.[code]

I've got an infographic I'm working on, and every time I roll over an image (a ring) the alpha goes up to 100, then I roll out and it goes back to 50. That much I'm good with.
Then, I click on each one of them, and a movie clip (built inside of each ring/button) pops up and plays. Fair enough.
I've got a script (ugly, but it works!) that will hide all other buttons while this movie clip is playing. But, when I click to close it, I can't figure out a way to make them reappear. I tried putting visible = true again for all of them, but no dice.
The actionscript for it is right below.
I'm not sure if there's anything I can do to make it modal in AS3 or something like that. Or should I go ahead and set it up in a parent/child kind of way (not too well-versed in that regard.
All the buttons to click on are in the same layer and I'm not sure if making them different layers in Flash would make any difference.
stop();
ring1926.movie1926.visible = false;
// add a rollover to make the inside movieclip appear

I have 8 movie clips. They are set up to disappear when clicked.on (release) {this._visible = false;}The problem I am facing is that I want the movie clips to be clicked in a certain order, so mc1 has to be clicked (and disappear) before mc2 can be active and click-able. That way the user has to click on them in order for them to disappear.
