I'm looking for something similar to the click to display a textfield in the code snippet menu. I want the textfield to appear when i hover over the box and for the textfield to go away when the mouse is no longer on the box. How do I do this?
View 5 RepliesI am trying to find a snippet of code for my website.I am building a website using Serif Webplus X4. I am also creating 2-4 animation shorts to play as an introduction to the website that I created with Toom Boom Studio 5. I would like to have one of them randomly play at the beginning of the website so that every time someone logs on to our website, a different one plays. My question is that someone said that if I go to Adobe that I could get a snippet of code to make these 2-4 animation shorts play randomly.
View 3 RepliesI am using the following code snippet: but this error occurs Line 6 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type flash.media:Video. img1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToPlayVideo);

video_1.play(); //the error is referring to this line here
}
Would i have to add something there?
I've created a new snippet in the Code Snippets panel in Flash CS5. However, it doesn't appear anywhere in the panel. Does anyone know where it's gone?
View 1 Repliesusing the "on mouse click" snippet in cs5 gives the following code as example code for something which can happen on click trace("Mouse clicked");
The notes say that this adds "mouse clicked" to the output pannel
indeed while previewing the file in flash mode clicking on the object adds this line to the output pannel each time.but while previewing in other modes such as html it does not
so what exactly is the output pannel does it store data which can later be called upon or does it have no use?
I have four buttons on the stage. Each one shows a block of text when when the mouse is rolled over it (the text is on the Over frame of the button's timeline). The problem is that some buttons get shown on top of the text. How do I make it so that when the mouse is placed on a button, that button is moved on top of all the others so that the text appears over all the other buttons?
View 5 RepliesI have a drag and drop based SWF. When I pick up a MC and move it , when I put it down it gives me the MC it is on.However there are times when the returned MC isnt the intended MCEg. The top of the MC is *just* on top of One MC but the mouse pointer is over another (the intended spot), So I am trying to find out if there is a way to return the MC that the mouse is over, rather than the MC's top left corner.
View 1 RepliesI have imported a psd template into Flash to link my buttons to a webpage, not sure which to use AS2 or AS3 , so I locked all the other layers on the template. right clicked on the actual button I wanted [linked] > Covert To Symbol > Gave Instance Name, then what exactly do I do next? Click on the button again? I have this code which I believe worked once :

I am trying to embed the goto next frame and stop code snippet into a symbol. Its basically a box that a user can click that will allow them to go to the next frame. The instanced symbol will be resized from frame to frame etc. I ve been told that if I embed the code within a movieclip within the symbol it should work, however I am severely frustrated as nothing is happening.
Create a symbol (I ve tried Graphic and MovieClip), name it A. Within that symbol I put in an instance of a Movie clip named B, which is just a square.Back to the top symbol A, in the timeline I add the code snippet go to next frame and stop.I have 5 frames in the main timeline which all have stop actions if that makes any difference?
How can I use this Code Snippet in my Project File to see the result?

Code:
private function tint (clip:Object, newColor:Number):void
{
var colorTransform:ColorTransform=clip.transform.colorTransform;
colorTransform.color=newColor;
clip.transform.colorTransform=colorTransform;
}
This code works fine for my flash site:
ovbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_5);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_5(event:MouseEvent):void

However, within firefox (7.0.1), once the back button is pressed the button does nothing. Works great with every other browser. It basically only works once, until I reload the page.
Just a single button that will call an action script. That action script will call
private var m_MicCnx:NetConnection; //connection over the server
private var m_MicStream:NetStream; //Audio Output
private var m_Microphone:Microphone; //micro, attach with m_MicStream's audio content

I think this is the most simple setup I can get that will publish a microphone to a RTMP stream. This is an attempt to shave down a larger product. This demo will help a third party create a RTMP Stream Reader for mp3.How do I move from this snippet of code to a flash application? Most tutorials I've found so far were either about using menus or creating very complex animations. I just need a single button that will call this, or maybe an auto-load.
I would imagine it's a simple enough bit of additional code, but I'm no programmer, and trawling the Web has proved fruitless to date...ithin Flash CS5 and using AS 3, I'm attempting to create a series of drag-and-drop interactions for a learning exercise where items must be dragged into the correct box with positive and negative feedback being generated as a result of where the learner drops the item. All I need is the code to link the drag and drop code snippet (which I have working) to a specific object/location on the stage (which I cannot find nor figure out for the life of me)

View 1 RepliesI use the HTTPService() method to post a variable value to a SQL Server database. The suggestion came from someone with some past experience in Flash but nothing specifically related to posting variables to a database.
This person sent me the following code snippet that he found in a Flex forum (and changed a bit), with a suggestion that maybe it will work with a bit of massaging.
PHP Code:
private function start():void {
service = new HTTPService();
service.url = "http://webServer.aspx";

My biggest problem is that I'm using Flash instead of Flex. What is the Flash (non-Flex) equivalent of HTTPService() method in the following code snippet?
I want to be able to continuously display (refreshing) the x,y positions of the mouse in a textfield.
View 9 RepliesI am trying to make an interactive flash application that works by detecting mouse overs and clicks on various buttons/movie clips and then moves to the appropriate part of the time line. But I am having an issue when I use more than one addEventListener in any one frame. I have attached the code for one such frame below. When I comment out the addEventListner and the other code relating to the followBall function this works fine and directs the user to frame Inlet_Valve_Open_Frame but now only the followBall function is working and when i try to click on the Inlet_Valve_Button movie clip nothing happens.
I have never read all the help files on the adobe flash CS3 as i don't have time and i have built this code up based on examples i have found online. I wanted to include my fla file but it's to big 6Mb. But i have attached the swf so you have an idea what i am doing.
Code: Select allstop();
//1.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,followBall);

i have this code (from another thread), which was got through the support of fellow geniuses on this forum but they showed how to put this into a textfield, which is what i want to do, but they showed how to do it before I made it display just the news feeds. So when i tryed to add what they taught me to this code BAM FAIL! So im asking one more/THE LAST TIME for the support from the forum to display this.

I have designed a menu that When you mouse over it, a custom cursor appears. When you mouse down it disappears and when you mouse up it returns. If you happen to mouse down and then drag the mouse off of the menu (whilst in mouse down) and then mouse up outside the menu, the custom cursor disappears. All good. The only issue is: If you happen to mouse down on the menu and then drag the mouse off of the menu AND off of the stage, i.e the SWF (whilst in mouse down) and then mouse up completely off of the stage, the custom cursor appears at the point it left the menu. I have tried to fix this using MOUSE_LEAVE but this dosnt work when the mouse button is pressed down. I have attached an FLA, SWF and the AS below.
Code:
stop();
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am being a bit puzzled on figure out how to release temporary identifiers to recycle them.For instances, suppose that I have 2 loops to instantiate dynamic mcs from library like this:
Code:
var zz:Number;
for (zz=0;zz<=4;zz++)[code]....
If I run this snippet of code, the compiler will complain and tell that I have a "Duplicate variable definition".I cannot understand why it doesnt complain when it is redefined five times within the first loop, and just complain because the second lop.Anyway, there is a way to release the _mc identifier then I can reuse it? I am an addicted to standartize names and recycle code...

View 3 RepliesI've been doing flash for a while, but I've never been good at coding. I'm trying to make a navigation bar for a website that follows the path of a mouse. Some examples are below: [URL] I'm looking to create something similar, however instead of having a bar slide through, I think I want an animated mask.
I want to set a default background image behind the text of the buttons, and a mask that fades out ontop of the background layer but behind the text. For those who don't understand... imagine a flashlight being pointed at a wall in a pitch black room. The circular source of light gives light to the background.Different from the examples above, I need to figure out how to make it follow the mouse exactly, instead of jumping to the next button automatically? I also suck at masks, but I'll be able to look that up. Are they animatable, or should I use a layer that is semi transparent in a circular area?
I have code that is in HTML format that I think will work. Is there a way to get it read and displayed in a flash frame? or Window?

View 1 RepliesI am an extreme novice in Flash and I've built a drop down menu following a tutorial from YouTube - sadly this took me days! It functions BUT fast mouse movement away from the menu drop down seems to prevent the drop down menu from closing. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Second question - I know how to create text links but when I do this the text's position jumps down without me having told it to. So is there a way to apply a link to a button rather than the text in the button, and is it possible to also apply a link to a movie clip?[URL]...
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?

I went through an intermediate stage, recreating and cleaning up the presentation in InDesign and exporting as a PDF when they wanted a self-paced thing, but now they want something that plays through with the standard movie controllers. This thing also has an embedded video, a voiceover, and links to PDFs at the very end. (I've looked at other software options and haven't found anything that seems to fit, but am totally open to other options.) At this point, I can export the InDesign pages as a .fla file and get them on the timeline, add the voiceover files, and trim out some of the fat, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fade one "slide" (now a movie clip in Flash) into the next. I need this to happen between successive bullet points and elsewhere. Using the code snippet "Fade in" fades, but only from white.
