View 1 RepliesI'm just starting to learn to make my own functions and was trying to make a walk sequence. My original program used an elaborate series of counters and onEnterframe, but I want to take a different route (basically starting from scratch) because my walk sequences always turned the avatars into picasso paintings when two or more keys were pressed simultaneously. I'm more familiar now with set and clear timeout, but what do I do if I want a specific sequence to count up, then down, or rotate back and forth, like the pendulum of a clock? starting with a basic function like function walk(bodypart){bodypart._rotation += 45;}. if (keyUsed == 68){walk(square_mc);} what do I have to change so the square rotates back and forth +/- 45 degrees while depressed?
View 1 Repliesrotating and moving along y axis... its position in the stage is x = 120 and y = 20 base on its properties.. but when i test it, tracing(_y) shows dat d first value comes 42.85 and not 20(value from the properties).. i dont know how to get its exact value just like what is seen from the properties.. i've tried to have an if statement that if the value of _y = to the y coordinate the blade position will alter its movement(at first its _y -= 2; going down movement, id like it to alter its movement when _y turns = 90), it never turns like i want. here is my facebook email add(URL)

I'm developing a game for my final year project at university that has a character who can move up and down on screen. The upper half of the screen is reflected in the lower half so that there are actually two characters on screen at once, each reacting exactly the same way to keyboard input.One of the mechanics involves the two avatars changing positions relative to their halves of the screen which requires a spacebar press to execute. The problem I'm having is that I don't want the characters to change positions once every frame if the spacebar is held down. I need to implement some sort of delay once the spacebar is pressed so that the characters won't swap positions for another second or so.
Code:
var plachaFlipPointY:Number = char.mc.y;
var shadowPlachaFlipPointY:Number = schar.mc.y;

As the subject says, how do I disable a button once it's pressed?For example:- Home page loads, disable the Home button- Click on Contact page, disable Contact button, re-enable Home button.I've tried removeEventListener, used button mode true/false and nothing seems to work for me... Unless I'm doing it all wrong...
View 1 RepliesSoo this is a simple problem, i have a 60 frames movie in a Layer, and another layer with 2 buttons.I want the movie to play foward while one button keeps PRESSED, and to play backward when we keep pressing the other button.i tryed this simple code but it didnt work out.on (press) {nextFrame();}
I used this code in the button that plays foward but it only moves 1 frame. I am realy new a this,
I have a function on root:
_root.fadeBox_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){
if (fade){
this.nextFrame();[code]....
This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say
on (press){
_root.fade = true;
}
the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?
Im interested in making something similar as here [URL] As you can see if button was pressed your browser window was scrolled down to the chosen word.How to do that?How that script should look? What action script use, any example projects or tutorials?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to help my colleague figure out how to make a button act like the Mac buttons do. In other words, when your mouse gets closer to a button, they will steadily grow larger. He found a piece of code, so i put it in my FLA file, closed my eyes, then peeked and hoped it worked. It didn't.
I have attached the FLA to this message. If you remove the top portion of the code [the portion between the // lines], you will see the file works fine as the buttons will advance frames. But when i put the top piece of code back [the piece my colleague gave me] i get error messages.bottom line is - what we're trying to do is make those triangle buttons "grow" as the mouse moves closer to them [like Mac buttons do].
I have a button which appears on multiple frames. I want to define an action on the button rather than each instance. Is there any way that I can do this in CS5?
View 4 RepliesThe script for my timer worked for one button but as soon as I set up the other 2 buttons to do the same, I started having a problem where the rollover action would go after the set amount of time was up but then would repeat itself once after the set amount of time was up again. just to clarify, if it needs it, the reason I don't have a rollout attached to these buttons is because I want the menu to stay out until you leave the menu area
so I have an invisible button called menuin_btn which sits to the right of the menu and covers the rest of the stage where the content will be, so you have to rollover that area for the menu to roll back in. The "rollin" in my code brings the movie clip to frame 16 (the end) where I have a gotoAndStop(1); command to get it back to frame 1 so the rollover can be used again. I've attached a zip with my current flash file and swf and here is what my current script looks like on the main scene:

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}

I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?
what the actionscript would be to make a button be clicked and held down with the mouse a certain amount of seconds before executing an action???

I am using code from a tutorial that I downloaded to get an Home.swf to preload in my "index" page.the problem is that a part of the code reads
movie1_btn.onPress=function(){
startPreload ("Home.swf");
}
which means that I have to create a button to get the .swf file to load, how do I edit this code so that the action begins on it's own at that frame?
I have a simple mp3 player, with PLAY PAUSE PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons. the problem i have is if you click the play button more than once, the mp3 clip will start to play itself as many times as you clicked. this sounds really bad..u could have the clip playing over itself 5 times.
Code:
if(play button is clicked ONCE){
(deactivate play button until next song);
}
in other words, only one PLAY-button-CLICK allowed per song...

I'm trying to create a set of 4 vertically arranged buttons that 'split' apart when those buttons are pressed. For example, if you click the topmost (1st) button, the bottom three buttons will drop down so submenus (for the 1st button) can now be revealed beneath. Again, when you click the 2nd button from the top, the bottom two buttons drop down, revealing submenus, and so on.
Now, is there a way that I can use actionscripting to tween the buttons to not only motion tween a drop down when a button is first pressed, but also to motion tween the button to return up to its original spot when another button is then pressed? Right now, I have two keyframes, side-by-side which each containing a different y-scale value for an object. Can I do some actionscripting to get the object to motion tween upward to its original spot instead of "clicking," or snapping back to is original spot when another button is pressed?
I want the press button to detect the last button pressed and if the shapes match, make them do something...obviously. I think I'm going at it the wrong way. I need to stick a "triange" id into the button/mc then if compares that and then if there is a match works then... right?
