I'm interested in learning how to create a "3d" object that a user can interact with using their mouse. I've taken 60+ pictures of a camera rotating by 5 degree increments and I'm trying to put together something similar to what Verizon has on their website for phones - Where your mouse rolls over an object and rotates it.
I've seen this done with Java as well, but I'm interested in how flash does it.
I'm using CS5 actionscript 2. I would like to create hovering text when one mouses over an item in the navigation window (please see pic). You know, something that would act like a brief abstract to give the user more info re: whether or not they need to click on that link.At present, the nav_mc is linked to an xml doc FYI (the nav_mc accordians in and out, but doesn't have to). I input what I want the menu and submenu to say in the xml nodes and it shows up. It would be cool if the hover text added could also be xml driven tooI am green to this so the more detail the better. Do I need to create a new xml doc? new .swf? How do I link this? Should I use Flash Builder or Catalyst?
View 6 RepliesI am working with Flash files from several Flash versions back; files not created by me.One swf has buttons that call a series of second (front) swf that in turn have buttons.My problem is that the buttons on the underlying and partially-obscured Flash remain 'mouse-sensitive' and active even though they are not visible.layer, returning sensitivity to the under-layer only when the top layer is closed?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to have a button rollover create an empty MC (board_loader) that will load a swf in itself (board1.swf) and follow the mouse around for the duration of the rollover. I know its not much, but here's what I have so far[code]...
View 4 Replies[URL]What i want is, when i move my mouse to square 1, it will go to Services, when i move to square 2 it will go to News etc.i had tried
number1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoTonews);
function fl_ClickToGoTonews(event:MouseEvent):void{ MovieClip(this.root).gotoAndStop(1, "news");}
number2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoTonews);
[code]....
This code was working, but i could only moved forward, not backward, otherwise Duplicate funtions error (something like that) shows up.
number 1 = Square 1 (Button)
number2 = Square 2 (Button)
news and service = the content i would go to when mouse rollover.
I am a Trainee Web Designer. I have done a few major projects for websites and stuff using alot of Adobe Programs but i have this job where i need to make a map of a school with rollover mouse effects. So when the mouse rolls over the Admin Building on the map, a large picture of the Admin Building comes up. Then when the mouse is moved away the images closes. I need to do that with about 8 images. I have one main image which is an arial of the school, then there is different sections that i need to make 'active'
How can i go about doing this? i have looked for tutorials for ages now but they are either outdated or too advanced for me, i just need a tutorial that can show me how to achieve my goal. i cotton onto things very quickly so i dont get lost unless things get too advanced or there is a lack of explanation.
What I want to create is a group of 13 images and upon rollover each image would make a different sound. I don't want the sound to stop once you move the mouse though because I want a few different sounds playing at the same time. At this point I don't really care whether they play for their whole duration or just for another 15 seconds! I'm doing this for Uni and the guy said it wasn't that hard.
I have some basic knowledge in HTML code, but I am a complete newbie to flash. I've downloaded Flash C5 and that's about as far as I've got! I'm not entirely sure which template if any I would need to use. I can't pay back in knowledge since I don't know anything, but I could bake you cookies?!
I'm pretty new to Flash, and I want to create a button like these.I understand how to make a basic rollover button, but I haven't got a clue how to do animation like that.URL...
View 1 RepliesI created a button that has a movieclip in the rollover state. When you rollover the mouse, the movieclip will animate to appear as if the button will scale from a small to a large button even though it is the movieclip that is playing and not the button itself. But I also want to add a keyboard code to play the rollover instead of the mouse. I learned to write actionscript to play different scenes with the code below, but I'm not sure if I can play a button rollover with the same code.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, key_pressed);
function key_pressed(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (event.charCode==49) {
gotoAndPlay(1,"scene");
}
in code snippets, would all "mouse click" actions work with taps on device?

I'm using actionscript 1.0 and 2.0 on flash Pro 8 and keep getting an error when I test the movie. Here is the error:
[Code]...
I've tried to create this rollover navigation...starting over 6 times already. Is there different language / coding for 1.0 and 2.0? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
Okay, trying to find a solution to this, I have been searching everywhere. I have a flash project with a grid of images; 3 images tall by 4 images wide. Here's what I want, when you rollover each image, the others get covered up with a larger version of the particular image, no fancy animations or anything like that, it needs to just appear. The problem I am encountering is that the expanded image is part of the rollover so rolling over anywhere the expanded image should be reveals the larger image. So the million dollar question is... how do I make the only active part of the rollover action be the small version of the image
View 3 RepliesSo I have a window that slides in when its rolled over. It goes back to its origin when the user rolls off the window. Now within that window I have a scroll feature taht creates a conflict with the window actions when the user tries to use the scrollbar elements. I want the window to stay open, while the user is scrolling and i want the window to close when the user rolls off the window.
It could be easier to have the user click the window open/closed...but I was wondering if there is a way I could keep my original vision...here is what i wrote for the window code:
[AS]window.backdimmer._alpha=0;
window.trigger.onRollOver = function() {
window.slideTo(-360, "_y", .4, "easeoutbounce");
[Code]....
I have a movie clip that has a few layers and a button on one of the layers. on the button I have this code:
on(rollOver){
gotoAndPlay("over");
}
on(rollOut){
gotoAndPlay("out");
}
Now, this mc is on the Main timeline and has an istance name "home_btn". I have a sliding menu type navagation going on and have some code for the "home_btn" on the main timeline:
home_btn.onRelease = function(){
menuSlide(contentHold.content1);
}
WHen I try to use the code on the maintime line and the code on the button inside the mc--it ofcourse doesn't work. How can I reference the rollover/out actions on the inside of the mc from the main timeline?
I got a problem with making a Flash banner. I've been looking over the internet for guides and tutorials for the past 2 days, but they just don't seem to work for me :/What I'm trying to make:Banner normal:Banner when you hold your mouse over "News":With "Game" and "Website" also being a button that link you to another page.So far I've managed to make a Rollover action, but it activates whenever I hold my mouse over the whole banner, not just the button (the "News" text). I got no idea what I'm doing wrong, or what I should do instead.
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a multiple choice question. Giving hints for each possible answer. So far, I've been able to do that on all but the selected radio button. For some reason, once I select it, the rollOver state no longer applies. Does anyone know of another way to turn on a function when a selected radiobutton is rolled over? By the way, I'm using AS2.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a dummy from a circular menu that reacts (rotate) to mouse movement, I uploaded a fla example, different colors, size, etc, but essentially the same in
function; but for now I'm freezed how to do somethings, I'm not a programer or actionscripter, but I want to learn.Currently using CS3 and AS2, downloading the FLA example may help.
Ok, in the "fla", you will see a circle who rotates versus mouse movement (I would like to make a delay rotation for a smooth feelling when mouse is moving, those like "_x += (_xmouse/5)" but with rotation. Other thing I would like to do,is... that the movement stops progressively a few degrees before the mouse reach de cian angles(a1,a2), and then, the circles doesn't move if the mouse is moving under those angles, like a... an inactive area(U1), and if it could work with instances.
I am wondering how I can make a top viewed char, that is rotating after my mouse. With an enter frame function or something?

I can do drag and drop ok but this doesn't help at all.

View 2 RepliesI made a game in AS2 where the player rotates towards the mouse, then discovered you need AS3 for 3D things(which I plan to add later) so I re-made the game in AS3. I think I can more or less do the rest of it but the rotation is driving me crazy. This code works fine in AS2 but when I try it in AS3 it completely fails. The player just wobbles about a 90 degree radius.

I'm using the following code to rotate a MC on the Y axis that stops at a certain point. Is there any way to do the same using the tween class so it has a softer finish.

{
var controller:Number = mouseX - stage.stageWidth * 0.5

I'm trying to achieve the effect found on this site:As you can see, the cursor (the marker) slowly rotates, based on the Y value of the mouse
