View 8 RepliesProfessional :: Button Over State Getting In The Way?
Feb 14, 2011I have a rectangular shaped button. When someone rolls over it, I want a text bubble to appear to the side of that button. The problem is, the mouse thinks it's over the button even if it's over the side bubble which does not exist in the "Up" state. How can I get the cursor to only detect a button ONLY if it's over any part of the "Up" state and not the "Over" state (which because of the side bubble is larger than the original "Up" state.)
Here is a screenshot of the two button states.[URL]... Even if the cursor rolls over the "Over" bubble (and not the Up state), the Over state still shows up.

Sep 8, 2010I've created an image with a dozen irregular buttons. It all works perfectly. Now I want to edit my flash cs5 file in a way so that, when clicked upon one button, the last of the 4 states (the hitbox state) will remain visible until one clicks another button. Now its looping back to the fist state. Im sure there must be an easy way to do this, something with a stop code maybe?
View 4 RepliesProfessional :: Button Color Not Changing In State Edit
Apr 3, 2012I'm learning how to use flash CS5.5 and i'm unable to continue a lesson because my button editing seems to not work properly. -When i double click or right click and click edit on my button I go into the symbol edit screen, where i can see the basic button states "Up, Over, Down, & Hit" but when I try to change the appearence of the button in each state the color and any sort of editing done to it does not happen, it is red in the "up" keyframe and when i try to change it to gray in the "over" keyframe it stays red.
-I found that double clicking the button in the edit screen goes into another edit screen labled "symbol 1" and in there i can change the color of the button, but any edits in that screen remain ineffectuall to the actuall button on the main screen. I don't know what is wrong with it, or if I am missing something, i've tried in both action script 2 and 3 and both have the same results.

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Make The Button Rollover State Exist On The Highest Layer?
Apr 29, 2008I'm making an interactive map of the U.S. The layer with the outlines of the U.S. states sits on top. It has to sit on top because otherwise the outlines don't show up above the color fills for each state. I want a popup balloon to appear when you roll over each U.S. state. However, when I turn a state, say, New York, into a button, the button layer sits below the outline layer. So when I create the popup box for the button's rollover state, the popup box is *under* the US state outlines. How can I make the button rollover state exist on the highest layer?

Professional :: Lengthen The Duration Of The "Down" State Of A Button Symbol?
Oct 5, 2010I have a button which has two appearances in the button symbol editor. On the "Over" frame there is a highlighted rectangle for mouse hover - works great. On the "Down" frame I have added some type (a short sentence to indicate the user has selected incorrectly, that they have hit the wrong button), and I have a short sound to help with feel/feedback - this works great also.
However - the type on the "Down" frame only shows during the very short instant while the mouse is clicked, or if the mouse is held down the type will show and the sentence can be read. - This is not great.
Basically I need a longer duration for the appearance that is in the "Down" part of the button instance to show slightly longer; say one second - long enough for the type to be read. These Buttons are used at a point in the timeline where the action has been stopped; the user clicks incorrect answers until they select the correct button, and are brought to a latter part of the timeline/movie. Is there a way to lengthen the duration of the "Down" state of a button symbol?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Make UP State Of Button End When Next Button Is Interacted With?
Jan 14, 2010I'm trying to make buttons that involve a character pointing to indicate interaction.When a button is interacted with (mouse over or down) the character's arm points to that particular button. I separated his body, so that it remains constant on the main stage, no matter which button is being interacted with.The problem is, when the user is not mousing over or clicking down on any button, the character has no arms (since only his body remains constant)!How do I resolve this?The only thing I thought of so far is if there's any way to create an up button state that includes the arm (right now I have nothing for mouse up) THAT ENDS when the next button is interacted with. Is that possible? If I put the arm in the up state (in addition to mouse over and down) it stays when the interaction is over, which poses a problem when the user interacts with the next button (the character ends up with double the arms since each button introduces a different set of arms pointing towards that particular button).
View 1 RepliesButton Down State Overridden?
Oct 5, 2009I have a sub menu with two movie clip buttons, let's call them mc1 and mc2. They both have a MOUSE_OVER event and a MOUSE_OUT event. What I would like is that when mc1 is clicked it will stay in the over state and then if mc2 is clicked mc1 will go back to the out state while mc2 stays in the over state.What seems to be happening in my code is that the MOUSE_OUT event is overriding the MOUSE_DOWN event. So when I take the mouse off after I've clicked mc1 the over state goes away.
Here's my code thus far:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.*
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mc1_over);

IDE :: Button - Hit State Works Sometimes?
Feb 13, 2009I created a button in flash. I gave it a different state for 'over' and 'down' - changing the color and scale respectively, so it looks depressed when you hit it.I then assigned an action to the button so that when it is 'hit' you are taken to another scene. However when you hit the button it goes to the scene but you lose out on the 'hit/depressed' part of the buttons state!? Why?
How do you keep the hit state intact with the button whilst simultaneously assign an action?I understant 'the action' is to go to another scene first, but can it not also show the 'hit state too?[URL]
Force A Button To Not Go Back To Up State?
Nov 30, 2009I've made a nav bar using buttons, and have them working just fine for Up, Over, Down, and Hit. (okay, so hit isn't a state, but I'll count it is as the fourth one)Problem is, once clicked on and produces a change in the flash, I want the button to not return to the Up state, but to visually be different so you can tell you are in that section.First problem is I can't for the life of me think of what that state is called. (Makes it hard to search for, and my poor little brain is fried right now.)Second problem is, can I force a button to not go back to up state? (either the over or down state would work fine).Or do I have to detect the click and then make a call to swap out the button file for the relevant section?
