Professional :: Button With Two Actions - Pull The Image In Place And THEN Shut Down The Movie Clip
Aug 17, 2010
I got four buttons that pull up images in a slide show. I want the fourth button to first pull the image in place and THEN shut down the movie clip. I thought this would be easy, but no. Unfortunately I canīt attach the fla-file on this forum. You could take a look at this:
[Code]...
It works in a sense. The movie falls into place when I click the button and the movie quits when I move the cursor. But it also means you might shut down the slide show involuntary when you move the cursor going for any of the other buttons. What can I do? I could point out that I'm not working with any frames here.

I have my stage. On the left side, I imported an image to the stage and converted it to a movie clip. I then added code so that it can be dragged and dropped. On the right hand side, I created an area for it to be dropped into. This is just a rectangle which has been converted to a movie clip. When the image is dropped, it resizes to the size of the movie clip rectangle. Is there anyway to make it snap into place inside the movie clip?

I have a movie clip button which I have created to provide me with colour tween. An "up" label for the upstate, "over" for the over state (colour tween) and then an "out" label where I have the colour tween back to normal. This all works fine except if i place an action on that button in the timeline, e.g.-
myBtn_mc.onRelease = function(){loadMovieNum("swf/movie.swf", 99);}
explain why this behaviour on my movie clip button won't work if an action such as this is placed on it ? (no tween just the up state colour)

I put a button in a movie clip to control actions in the main scene. Shouldn't that work? For some reason it doesn't.

I have a menu that when you click on a button, an external swf is called up. However I would like for the buttons in the Over and Down state to show an image on top of the external swf with a description of what the video is about (Basically when they rollover the button).
The problem is that the image shows behind the external swf. I cannot get it to appear on top of the external swf. I have tried putting the buttons layer on top of the actions layer but that doesn't work.

I've got a basic little slide show player which is timeline-based, rolling through 5 images with alpha transitions, and on the topmost layer, I have 5 invisible movie clips which have actions applied to them as follows:
on (press) { gotoAndPlay(21);}
This action should allow for the on click button to navigate to that specific frame, or image, but for some reason it is not working.

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

I'm a very new user to AS3 and I'm attempting to migrate a site from Flash CS3 to CS4 on a Mac. I keep getting the following compile warning: "Warning: Actions on button or movie clip instances are not supported in Action Script 3. All scripts on object instances will be ignored." This is very confusing to me. I thought that scripts could be attached to both frames and objects? Is this a bug that is a result of switching from versions? Or is this warning true; and I have to abandon all uses of attaching scripts to objects on the stage?
Also: Can anyone illuminate me on the keystroke to call the actions window in AS3? It is supposed to be the F9 function key and another that I can;t locate on my keyboard!? As I said,I'm a very new user, so be kind!!

I have a menu bar that has 2 Drop down menus. Each drop down is a separate movie clip, with 3 buttons inside that are separate movie clips. I have a class set to the buttons that are movie clips for a roll over effect. But when I mouse over it does not work. Also on the main time line I tried to add a like to a web page but it did not work. But I only have this problem with the movie clips that are inside the drop down movie clips.
Why is this? How do I add roll over actions and external links to movie clips that are inside of another movie clip? I really need some help this is a problem I have been having for about a month or more. I am still a AS3 newb and this is my first time using classes. The other classes I have work with everything else, Im just having trouble with the movie clips that are inside movie clips.

I'm trying to change an image, but I noticed that the image is in a symbol/movie clip type.. I also found out that the image itself (jpg/gif/png format) is not in the library. So what to do? How to change it? Also, when importing image files to the library, how do I import it automatically to a certain folder in the library?

At step four, it says to
4- Inside another Movie Clip named "Limits" place "Pads" and "Wall". Pads' instance name should be "Pads" and Wall's instance named "Border". We put the Wall and Pads inside the same Movie Clip, to use it to know when the ball collided. And we couldn't put everything together because the ball behaves different if hits the Wall instead of the Pads.
How do I create this movie clip and put the other movie clips "inside it"? Also, if anyone can find out, where do I put this movie clip? Do i put it at the same spot as the wall?

I made an image of an arrow and it is set as a button, not a movie clip.
I have made it so one of my scene loops, frames 65 to 85 and added a button to go to the next scene which is at frame 86.
The code I used is
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(86) ;
}
But when ever I test the scene I get an error saying "Mouse events are permitted only for button instances".
I am using ActionScript 2.0

I have a blue oval button. In the button timeline, I created a seperate layer and placed the movie in the roll over frame. When I rollover the button, the movie plays, showing the button coming off the page (3D) with a shadow.
I now want to show the button going back into place when I roll off the button, but I am not sure how to do this in the button timeline?

what bugs me that in EVERY tutorial on creating lets say, a menu they teach you how to animate things and everything but theres never an explanation on how to actually connect buttons or movie clips with a certain action.
I want to do the most basic thing.. to make a certain animation/movie clip appear in the document after a certain button is pressed.

i have another totally newbie question here, sorry everyone, In one of my frames i would like to have a button that opens up a movie clip, but i would like it to do this on a mouse-over action instead of a click, i have tried using the onRollover action, but i can't get it to work, it's got to be a daft mistake i am making but i have spent ages trying to figure it out, and once again i am stumped.

Can anyone explain what are advantages/disadvantages to put the button inside the movie clip vs. to put a button instance directly on the main timeline? My final goal is to have plenty of animation going on inside the button stages.

I've only ever used tweening to move an object on the stage which always looks choppy. Say I have a movie clip that is just off the stage and I want to bring it to the center of the stage nice and smoothly starting slowly, getting faster and the slowing down,what actionscript would I have to use. In fact to make it easier, here's a FLA which uses traditional tweening to move the object, what must I do with it to get rid of the tweening and replace it with a nice smooth actionscript?

I'm trying to figure out how to use addChild to place a movie clip. I've got it working, but I can't get it to load in the bottom level of the movie. No matter what I do, it seems to load on top of everything else. I'm definately a newbie with AS3, and had only a little experience with AS2, but the load / unload movie seemed so much easier than this. I've found tutorials on addChild, but none of them specify how to load into a specific layer/level.

I am making an interactive map of the US.When you hover over a state it zooms in and cities pop up.When you click the city it should a page, for now just google.I have the basics for the first state, California.The zoom works and the cities pop_up.However, when you click the city the link doesn't work. The cities are instances of a movie clip, city.I placed them inside the CA movie clip in their approx locations and named them SF_mc, LA_mc, SD_mc respectively.Here is the code.i added some comments.the FLA is attached in zip as well.It is CS5 file but I'm more familar with AS2 so yea.This is the first frame of the CA movie clip, actions layer
Code:
stop();
/this is all zoom stuff
this.onEnterFrame = function(){[code].......
In the first frame the cities are not on the stage yet. They are add later when the state is zoomed. SO i thought maybe that is why it not working so i tried duplicating the code on the frame after the zoom where i add the cities and it is still not working...

I am making an image gallery and have so far got buttons that display a group of movie clips inside another movie clip. onclick { _root.attachMovie ("group","group",1) } or something, from the top of my head.
I now need to make it so that each movie clip inside "group" displays another movie clip, "image". How do I do this, seeing as they are dynamically loaded?
