I have a banner that I'm creating, it has 5 images that rotate via motion tweening. I've created an invisibile button (and also attempted to create multiple buttons) so that when you click on a specific image it will bring you to that URL. So far I have only gotten it to work for the final URL. No matter which image I click on, it only brings up that last URL.
Here is my code:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler1);
function buttonClickHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.google.com"));
}
Flash noob here using cs3/as3. I'm trying to create a simple banner which fades between 2 images, looped. (This I can do!). What I'd like is to have each image link to a different url. I've tried changing the images to buttons with the following actionscript:
on (release) { getURL('http://www.mysite.com', '_self'); }
but get the following error: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances even though they are buttons! I thought this would be really simple, but obviously not! Any ideas are gratefully received.

I'm working on a project for a client and I'm doing something I have never done in Flash. The Flash first loads four images that have been converted to buttons. Those four by itself link correctly, but when I add the code for the next two sets of images the code breaks and none of the links work. I'm not sure what to do. Here is the code for the first two sets of images:
The last two links cause a problem. I get Error 1120 access of undefined object. However, when I click the button and look in the properties box it says Instance of BTN_Adult01 and Instance of BTN_ModelFemale so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I tried to paste my source code but it won't let me because it contains links and I don't have enough posts, but I did attach the file.
I am a complete and utter newbie when it comes to flash. I've bought Flash Professional CS5, and I am looking for a tutorial/help to create a rotating banner ad similar to the one on [url]...
Example: I've got four different pictures I want to rotate within let's say 3-4 seconds per picture. Each of the picture needs its own link, so people can click to get to the correct place. I want the pictures to "fade out to the left" when changing)
I've got a simple rotating banner and would like to have an mp3 play if someone rolls over the banner and stop if they move their mouse away. I grabbed some code from this forum and placed it on my button instance but it's not working. Here are the working files: [URL]. I've "linked" the mp3 file and given it the ID of "makin" and posted the following actionscript on the button instance:
Actionscript Code: // button actionson (rollOver){ // creates a new object from Sound classyourSound = new Sound(); // attach the 'idSound' named from libraryyourSound.attachSound("makin"); // start the sound attachedyourSound.start(0,1);}on (rollOut){yourSound.stop();}
I want to have a fade effect in between different images, but I don't know how to incorporate it. Could somebody modify this code or tell me how to modify this code so that it will fade in between images?
It's been a long time since I've messed with actionscript, so I'm back to being a noob. I found a thread on this site that gave me some code that almost worked perfectly. The only problem is that it plays the first swf twice before moving on to the next swf. Once it moves on to the second swf... everything plays once then moves on to the next swf and loops continously - as it should. How can I get it to play correctly without the doubling of the first swf?
I'm trying to make a rotating banner with buttons on it (check the uploaded FLA... I had to set the extension to *.zip to get it uploaded, so once you DL it, change it to .FLA). It sorta does what I want it to do right now, but my code is really... REALLY awful. The only thing I can say about my code is that the functionality is close to what I'm looking for. Basically, this is what I want it to do:
1) banner consists of 3 different banners that rotate out with an animation in a continuous loop.
2) little buttons in the lower right hand side will whisk you to the appropriate banner, but will NOT be clickable on its specific banner.
3) rolling over the main banner img or the button will also pause the movie
4) clicking on the main banner img will send you to a URL I have a very hard time finding a way to be able to call a function over and over again without remaking the function and renaming it. If you have some time, please take a look at the FLA and pass me some pointers. I am using Flash CS3 if that matters.
Does anyone know how to create a rotating flash banner for your wedding blog. I have a blogger photography blog but need a rotating flash banner. I know how to insert it but does anyone know of a generator that makes flash banners similar to these and made by prophotoblogs:
I have been playing around with some simple flash banners with 3 movieclip stages. One clip starts at the top and slides down to the stage and holds for 3 seconds and then slides off too the bottom. Then a clip slides in from the right and holds for 3 seconds and slides off to the left. Then finally a clip slides in from the right, holds for 3 seconds and then slides of too the left. Pretty basic stuff.I have been doing all this in keyframe with a little easing. But I would like to do this with actionscript(2, as this is to be published on various sites).I have been looking at the tween class for this without the need for frames,
I currently designed a website for my client in wordpress with rotating banner headers. The website theme is space and astronomy, hence my client wanted banners about space shuttles and galaxies etc. I have been able to do this .. but with one small hitch the banners are in the size of 50-70 KB each. You can check out the website at -[URL] What I wanted to know is
1. Is there a wordpress plugin which installs adobe flash on the website? 2. Will making the banners in flash reduce the load time? 3. Will using flash affect the user experience as I believe many mobile brosers and iPad's do not support flash?
On this site, the rotating flash banner at the top works fine in IE and Chrome, but when opened in Firefox, it doesn't load the picture or advance automatically. If you click on one of the other buttons to advance to another item, it works fine, but on page load, it will not work.
I'm trying to create a rotating banner with buttons and hyperlinks... I create previous/next buttons for the banners, but I want the "Previous" on the first banner to revert to the last banner... and the "Next" button on the last banner to revert to the first banner.
I'm trying to build a banner that rotates (fade in, fade out) our clients logos on our company website. If you look at [URL] at the bottom of their site they have client logos fading in and out using some sort of Flash script. What needs to happen is anytime a logo is dragged into a folder on our website it will automatically go into the rotation of logos appearing on the website.
i have created some flash banners with a url embedded in them, so when they are placed on a web page the banner links through to my website when clicked. Fairly simple.But, i tested them on a website on my server to link to another website on the server and they worked fine. When i gave them to a client to embed on their own website (the flash files are hosted on my server still), the links no longer work.
Is this a security issue to stop the links working? i also checked it in linux and the banners worked, but in windows they do not. I dont want the client to have their own local copy of the flash file, as i may update it in the future and dont want to chase up lots of different copies everywhere.
What I am trying to to do with this ad is have two separate URLs to click on. I would seperate the ads but this is what my client wants and I can't figure it out for the life of me!!
I have a set of links (movie clips) arranged in a circle. When one of the links is clicked, I would like the circle of links to rotate until the selected link is in a certain position - straight down (90 degrees) in this case - and the others to maintain their positions relative to the clicked link (ie: they all move, but the distance between them is maintained). The behavior is intended to be like a bullet rotating into a chamber on a revolver, or - more accurately - like that of a Ferris Wheel. [URL] Here is my mangled version of the AS from the site linked above:
ActionScript Code: // setting variables var centerX = Stage.width/2; // Stage Center X var centerY = Stage.height/2; // Stage Center Y
I have the 3D rotating cube. Each panel of the cube is an image pulled in through actionscript. When you click on one of the panels, the cube straightens itself to show only the face you've clicked on. This is all great. However, I want to be able to click on that face again and have it link to a URL. This is where I get lost.
I feel like I'm ALMOST there - I've gotten it to work so that I can click the panel and it links to a URL, but right now every panel links to the same link. I haven't figured out how to make each panel link to its own separate URL. Here is the portion of code in my .FLA where I've added the linking action:
Code: setupFaceAction = function (cube) { for (var i = 0; i<cube.faceArray.length; i++) { var face = cube.faceArray[i]; face.onPress = function() { if (!cube.fading) { [Code] .....
This is the line I added to make it link when you click the panel after it's facing forward: Code: cube.getURL("[URL]", "_self");}
So I assume I need to set up some sort of array so I can have multiple links that correlate with the appropriate image. To make it clearer, I've attached all of my files, so you can see all the code. You'll find actionscript in the .FLA and two external actionscript files. I think "cube.as" may be where I need to do the work.
I'm having a little trouble with my flash banner. When I click on my button, it opens the link I specified in a new window or new tab, like target _blank in HTML. I want it to open in the same window, so you're still navigating through the site. Here's my button's code: link_btn5.addEventListener(MouseEvent.... goToURL5); function goToURL5(e:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest ("/forums/index.php "));}
I want to incorporate a scrolling image banner into my website, and found a great tutorial on youtube which works well.I can't post a link unfortunately.It is a pretty basic image scroller that has a series of images scrolling across the screen in an infinite loop. Direction is controlled by mouse position (extreme left or right), and it will stop when the mouse is positioned over an image in the center area.Here's the code:
var myVar:Boolean; this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame); function onEnterFrame(e:Event) :void[code]....
After trying to figure this out through forums such as this for days, it seems that my answer is to use XML (which I do not know, and which I think would require completely starting over).Is there any way to do this in AS3?
Again, I'm a novice user, but understand the basic animation tools of flash to feel comfortable using it as the platform to make this work. I'd like to be able to switch out images/links as necessary, and feel good about my ability to use flash to do that.
I am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.
I have a flash file with several layers, each composing of a single movie clip which slides in over the layer below it. The movie clips are nothing more than static images. I would like to make it so that each "slide" links to a different URL.I am new to AS3, and I am just getting back on the flash wagon with this little banner rotating project, so I'm a bit confused with why layers, and timeline positioning seem to be effecting the links.I found a few tutorials online, and can manage to make one link on the bottom layer work, but when I try to expand the code and the file to create links from different movie clips on different layers, I run into problems. when I add the action script for the other buttons, the movie will fail to play by it's self on load. I can get this to work with ode:this.gotoAndPlay(1)at the top of the ActionScript But none of the other links work.Here is what I am using for more than one link:
Code: backpacks.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction); function myButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
I have an idea of a game in my head and I wan't to get somekind of functional demo of it done in flash (CS3). I've looked everywhere but couldn't find tutorial for it, as I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I'm not that good in Actionscript. I'm now trying to describe this problem. On screen there's 4 rectangles, 2 in a row. So it's 2 rows with 2 rectangles in each. between all of them theres 4 circles. If I activate a rectangle with mouse and use arrow keys to rotate it smoothly 90 degrees, 2 nearest circles rotate with it. And same thing happens with all of the rectangles.
So I'm looking for somekind of solution where rotating an object also rotates every circle around it. and when circle rotates 90 degrees with rectangle as it's center point, it can be also rotated with another rectangle. I think I can't explain this clearly?
