IDE :: Make Drop Down Menu And Links To Flash CS4?
Jan 27, 2010
I have tried to do those thing for couple of days( and nights), and every time some part of the code that i write in there does not work.I have tried to do Drop Down in animation (motion tween), i have also tried to do links, but i just dont get them work.
I have a drop down menu on my website and it works perfectly fine except for some of the links. i don't have the other pages made yet but i still have the links to the pages in the buttons in my drop down menu. For some reason when i click on the buttons in the drop down menu, they don't go to the pages, they don't do anything. But when i click on the buttons in the sub drop down menu in side the main drop down, they work
the code for each button is the on(release) get url code, is their a different code i can use that will make these buttons work? here is the link to the website so you can see what I mean. the paralegal services button is the one with the drop down.

i created a flash button in dreamweaver (one of those preset flash buttons you found in dreamweaver).. and i want to know how to make a drop down menu for that preset flash button?
This is a an XML driven drop down menu and I found out that if there are too many items on a category, the item go off below the screen and can no longer be seen. I tried to make it scroll using the scrollPane and following other tutorials but it is still diffult for me to do.
I need a tutorial for a hierarchical drop down menu system that drops down 3 sub levels. Do I make the items in the sub menus individual buttons and then insert them into a movie clip or make every sub menu item a movie clip and insert them into buttons?
I am trying to make a drop down menu for my website navigation. Right now my navigation is just text and I want to have drop down on only a few links. I only want to have text no shapes as buttons just text.
I'm having issues with the following menu. I've been adapting a script from eveloper/actionscript/xml_dropdown_menu.htm into actionscript 3. When I get to the last level of the menu it won't link properly. It always takes the last url of the bunch as the url for all links in that branch of the tree.
I need to find an action script that tells a random movie clip scene to play... You see I have a movie clip with two frames ( each with "stop" in the AS), but when I export the film, I want it to randomly pick which of the two frame to show
ive followed Senoculars drop-down menu tute, awsome stuff, but it seems the submenu's dont disappear to well when you roll out. ..They only disappear if you click on another menu item or when you click outside the menu.
how to make a dynamic drop down menu? I mean I have a button I press it and it ones the drop down menu in a movieClip. I close the movieClip and I press another button and the drop down menu appears again but with different content. The length of the menu is given by the length of an array, and the content of the menu are colors that have to change every time I press another button.
I have a bunch of menu windows that I've placed on separate frames (for example main menu is on frame 1, options menu on frame 2, chapters menu on frame 3, characters menu on frame 4, etc). On each menu there are a bunch of text links (movieclip instances), when clicked goes to another menu page. Some of these same links (same instance) are duplicated on multiple pages since they perform the same function. For example clicking the "backToMain" instance will go back to frame 1, which is main menu, regardless of which page it was clicked on.
Does anyone have an idea how I might build this? So far I've tried to add listeners to every single link, however since lots of links are on different frames other than frame 1, I can't add listeners to them until I tell actionscript to flip to that frame, which I don't want to do. I want to globally add listeners to all links all at once in the beginning:
I purchased a website template that has some flash in it however the auther of the template lacked to include instructions and seemed to have left it unfinished (The links don't work, of course).
I can't seem to locate the actionscript he talks about: [URL]
[code]....
Notice that nothing there with clickable links :
I cannot find the actionscript that deals with onRollOver actions I would be absolutly ecstatic.
I have a dynamically generated menu populated by two arrays, "menuTitles" and "menuLinks." Everything works great except the onRelease command. I get "undefined" instead of the contents of the array element (should be an HTML link). If I hard code the array element (menuLinks[1]) it works, but as it is, I just keep getting undefined.
function generateMenu() { menuLength = menuTitles.length; var currItem:MovieClip; for (var i:Number = 0; i<menuLength; i++) { currItem = emptyMovie.attachMovie("menuItem", "item"+i, i); [Code] .....
I've been trying to to create a flash drop down menu for weeks now,i am trying to do a drop down menu that comes over the HTML items. i am using flash cs4 with Action script 3i would add the file but i cant.
I have a vertical dropdown menu created in Flash linking to an XML file. Each of my submenus needs to link to a document within my website. I am using a getURL command in flash to link to my page but when I put the page name into the xml file it isn't working correctly. eg, when I click on the sub menu button the URL address for the page should be [URL]. It is coming up as [URL]. If I correct the URL the page is there but how do I program flash to bring up the correct URL.
I have created an XML driven Drop Down menu using the kirupa tut by Senocular found here. I am trying to figure out how to get the submenus to push the rest of the main menu down on rollover kind of like this. Not sure where to start to get the AS to get the button created fromt he XML nodes to move down.I haven't changed the code found int he tut too much and the menu works fine except that the rollovers just go over the main menu.
Can somebody take a look at my .fla file and tell me why exactly my menu is not dropping down at all?If you download my file go to scene 3. that is where my Navigation Bar is.URL...

Each time I make a drop down menu I face some problems, For example, when I use tweening to roll out a menu ( via ROLL_OVER/ ROLL_OUT), sometimes the menu gets stuck, or starts flickering after it is rolled out if I move the cursor away, and move back on it.
How could I solve this, should I use a timer to disable the button until the tween finishes (or this would be good for nothing)?
I'm creating an animated (in and out) drop down menu. I've managed to get the menu to open when the user mouses over, with the buttons all selectable. However I can't seem to find an efficient method of making the drop down menu close whenever the mouse is not over the menu. Actions:
I love Senocular's XML-Driven Drop-Down Tutorial. But I can't seem to get it to make the menu headers look different from the submenus.
(and if anyone is interested, i've turned it into a horizonal menu... reply and i'll post the code. better yet, help me fix the GUI issue and i'll post it )
HOW do I go about doing it?Ive tried...buttonon "over" create to movie clipinside movie clip have my animations and sublink buttonsit works fine, but there's one problem, The hit area of the main button HAS to cover the hidden sublinks, so even if you scrolled your mouse over the bottom of the button (in the invisible area) it will still show since its in the hit area).How can I create a simple nav drop down? I seriously have went through almost all tutorials, both video and text, and nothing has worked! I am using Actionscript 3, or whatever the tutorial says to use.edit: Here is something I'm working on. Its a button, and on the rollover it creates the animation. Obviously it doesnt work, because you cant have a button inside a button, so I don't know the actionscript to do this.
I wan to create Drop-Up menu in flash with AS-2. see the attachment or go thorugh this link [URL] , i want to create some thing like this type of Drop-Up menu.
I am not sure if this is the right forum or not. But, I have a drop down css menu that goes under my flash banner rotator. I have other flash on the page and the menu goes over the top of that ok. I have searched the forum and believe the answer is <PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent> But, I am having trouble adding to my code.
I have been trying to use the Search Box on here to see if this has been asked before (which I am sure it has) but for whatever reason the search is not working for me. Just brings up an empty page.Anyway, I am working on a project where I am using Slideshow Pro for Flash and I have the navigation menu right baove it. The menu will have a drop down on some of the menu items
