I do not know if this is the correct place to ask this question so if there is a better place, just let me know! I am a very novice designer and even worse programmer and I am currently creating a flash movie based website. One of the "pages" of the site has buttons on it that open up a dialogue box which covers the buttons. The dialogue box has a close button to then get open up the area so you can select a different button and thus different dialogue box if you wish. My problem is that when the dialogue box opens, the mouse cursor turns into then "hand selection" cursor and I can still select the buttons that are behind the dialogue box that has been opened. This has all been done natively within the flash movie, no actionscript so a button takes you to frame 5 which has a dialogue box and another button takes you to frame 10, for instance.
If you create a popup via:[code]It will create a popup and bring it on top of any other visual piece. I have one problem though. This 'popup' needs to stay up even when the user interacts with the background.I would use modal, but I need the ability to interact with the back. Any way to tell the popup manager not to remove the popup when the user clicks off of it?
For example, consider the store directory of a mall [URL] When the user clicks on a particular store, it popups the detail of that store. How is this kind of flash file created?
I have and swf embedded into an aspx web page. I am using ExternalInterface.call to open windows using javascript Eeverthing is working fine when stage.displayState = "normal" all popup windows are diplaying behind the flash when stage.displayState = "fullScreen";Does full screen mode allow the popup windows to be displayed just like normal mode?
How do you create a flash in game popup on the same frame?I need to make a popup in flash on the same frame. Basiclly like you reach the frame and randomly (I know how to do random stuff) a popup might appear saying like you got a prize; and I want the stuff in the back to stay the same.
I would like to have my flash movie launch a window to an HTML page and then be able to notify the flash movie at a certain point (form submission). Is there a way maybe using javascript that I can pass variables to my movie from another external page?
I'm looking to create a flash based popup window when a button is pressed within the flash movie. Not a javascript based html window or html browser window, but a window that is in the flash movie that is entirely flash based. I looked all over the internet and can't seem to find anything on this, and can't find anything on this board either. I am new to flash and actionscripting in general. I would also like to use the Tweener external class, or the flash tween class would work too.
I have an html page with a link that loads a popup window. The popup includes a simple Flash movie. Some basic Javascript code in the html file was used to produce the popup window. What Im trying to do is have a button that I created in the Flash app close the Flash movie and the popup window.
So I am creating a photo gallery and in the process I have created a button that links to a movieclip and plays it to appear as a popup window of the larger picture.
In my game people shoot at 4 different moving images and get points. Simple right? Well one of the images is a question mark that people can shoot and when they do, I need flash to pause the game timer, pop up a new window, display the multiple choice question in the window and wait for the user to answer. I would also like to be able to customize the size and location of the pop up window!
Then if the question is answered correctly close window award 10 points and continue the game. If the question is answered incorrectly, say wrong and then display the end game results screen. Right now I have it to where it opens a pop up in a web browser and askes the question there. The question is randomly chosen from a file called random.html. But I do not want the game to operate that way. I want the game to open the pop up within flash.
How to solve this error as it will keep popping out whenever I click on the play button of the game I'm creating. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at index_fla::MainTimeline/frame2() at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at index_fla::MainTimeline/clickPlay()
I created a movie clip (mcPopup), deleted it from the stage, and set it to export for ActionScript. I then set up the movie to attatch the clip to the stage and then load a JPEG image into it. Now, I need to be able to let the viewer dismiss the popup, but I cannot figure out how to add an event listener to the movie clip. I tried several different ways, but the popup doesn't seem to be clickable and doesn't respond to clicks (perhaps the image is in the way?) Here is what I have for the code for the thumbnail the visitor clicks to open the popup:
on (release) { _root.attachMovie("mcPopup", "popup_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
I'm needing to make a simple onmouseover popup sort of thing in my flash movie for a bunch of diff menu items.I have the menu setup but I need the mouseover script to create popup info pages like the intro here:URL...
i'm using the centered pop up window script from: [URL]. i have multiple buttons in my flash movie which open screenshot html pages in external browser windows. the script works fine except when a popup window stays open. the rest of the buttons don't open/replace past that one popup. i tried changing the window name in the onRelease script to screen1, screen2, etc for each button, but that didn't work.
I need to close the popup(adobe flex), non modal window if I click on the parent page of the popup. I have to do the out of focus check and then do some validation before close the popup. So what I was thinking that is there any inbuilt focus check event or do we need to create custom event for that?
Each page has like the first page "Welcome" followed by a brief paragraph followed by a "read more..." link/button which opens to a small popup window with additional 3-4 paragraphs. So the main page has "WELCOME" > small paragraph > read more button.
Below that has "LATEST WORKS" > small paragraph > read more button
Both of those "read more..." lead to the same popup window but have their own title "Welcome" and "Latest works"(don't know where the mini title file is) but the paragraphs are the same which I don't want. I want each "read more..." to open to its own little popup.
Still learning script but is their anything in the script to change or something on stage? Or just redo everything somehow on (rollOver) { gotoAndPlay("p1"); } on (releaseOutside, rollOut) { gotoAndPlay("p2"); } on (release) { _root.popup.gotoAndStop(2); _root.popup.label.text = i;}
I have a legal document that I need to include in my movie, and it needs a link to popup for printing. What is the best way to do this. I converted the .doc to a pdf, and opened in AI and converted to a SWF if that helps. Isis required to use Java for this type of action?
I'm making a presentation in flash. I would like to show some of my previous work in flash (.swf-files). The presentation is fullscreen and i publish it as an .exe file. In the presentation there are several links. When you click on one of those, a own made pop-up opens. In this pop-up I would like to show the animation (.swf file) But.....I found out that some of the .swf files don't work when you import them into flash....So instead I used the load movie command. (I'm not very good in actionscript). The swf file opens, but not IN the pop-up. How do I do that? My pop-up now disappears and my swf starts to play.
Basically, I've built an application which is working fine. I have a 'settings' button that overlays a settings window, semi transparent, over the main application, that has some buttons on it.The problem I'm having is that the buttons on the main window are still selectable, which I don't want. How can I get it to stop tracking the buttons underneath my overlay window?
When you want a window to pop up (ie: image descripstion), do you just have the content in the library , or do you actually have it in a keyframe labeled in the timeline? And what is the best script to call it , and to make it close when clicked anywhere?

I have made a number of Flash banners and I save them and everything is good but when I open them, some of the movie clips have reverted to a previous state. So I need to resize and redo thsoe movieclips. I make one banner and then save as new file and resize it. It is really annoying.. I am on P.C. and have all the current updates installed.
I have a Flash banner that needs to execute a Javascript function outside the movie. This is required to occur on a click of a Flash Button. How would the best way to get this done be? What reading could I start with?
