Professional :: Proper Button Code If Button Is Inside The UILoader?
Oct 13, 2010
I have issues with the buttons working from the SWF file which is brought into the main flash site via UILoader.
[Code]...
I gathered that it is most probably due to the fact that I have constructed a button in the improper way.I tried to redo a button but it was the same result.I would like to try to access it through the main timeline. What would be the whole block of code to put a function on the button located inside an external SWF which is called in via a UILoader?

I decided to rearange my flash site and now things don't work.I used to have an image collage where all the images were buttons and each image was located on the stage ( which made a stage with 10+ loose images)I made each image a button. Below is a code example for one of the images named "icysophistication_app_btn". The previously working code for it was:
icysophistication_app_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_IcySophisticationPopUp);
function onClick_IcySophisticationPopUp(event:MouseEvent) :void {

In my game currently I have a series of UILoaders which can be set to load a specific swf file inside the larger one. What Im trying to do is manipulate the 'child' swf file from the parent- in particular use the goToAndPlay() function. Im pretty sure Ive seen the solution before but I cant find it now.
How make the connection from the UILoader class to its contents as a movieClip?

s there a possible issue in the way the button is made not coded?I am using Flash CS4. My buttons seem not to work. I do not think issue is in the action script (I am scripting in 3.0).Here is the way I make the button. I add a movie clip on the stage on the over state ( so if you were to double click on that movie clip a new time line would open), at the end of that movie clip there is a simple stop(); code on its own line. I do not add extra frame on the over state.Then I assign the code to the button and of course cross reference its name in the properties and everything is matching up. Just in case here is my code:
floralyte_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickFloraLytePopUp);
function onClickFloraLytePopUp(event:MouseEvent) :void {
gotoAndStop("61");
}
All of my buttons work fine through the Up, Over, Down, HIt stages without the problem. The functionality works fussy, some of them I have to click twice to go to the specified frame with the UILoader, some do not work at all and some work.I double checked and all of them seem to be done identical.

I want to use my own .swf button for PayPal payments with a "hidden format", but when adding the generated PayPal Website code to my html page, only a red X and the alt PayPal text is showing where the button should be. I have changed all Active X controls to Enable.Every time I contact PayPal I get a different reply. The last one was that I have to add a "static" image, but I really want to use my own button.I would rather find a way to paste the PayPal code into my buttons action script and then I only have to paste the Flash button to the html, but don't know how to manipulate that because the only code generated by PayPal is a "form" in html format. I am also adding text fields and guess that's why I don't get an generated email code from PayPal which I get if I don't add text fields.

Can anyone explain what are advantages/disadvantages to put the button inside the movie clip vs. to put a button instance directly on the main timeline? My final goal is to have plenty of animation going on inside the button stages.

I was told that putting code on buttons is bad practice now. So, I'm trying to move my button codes to my main actionscript frame. I did it find with the play and stop/pause buttons. However, the rewind and forward buttons are proving more difficult How would the code look if I transferred it from my button to my actionscript frame I'll post the code I have right now in my rewind button.
on(press){this.onEnterFrame = function(){frame = theTargetClip_mc._currentframe;theTargetClip_mc.gotoAndPlay(frame-6);}}on(release){ theTargetClip_mc.play();delete this.onEnterFrame; }rect" answers.

I'm trying to understand how to build a button inside a movieclip. I have a template that has movieclips within movieclips, and when I create a button (all using AS2) the button will work if I test the scene, but in the whole flash movie it does not work. I also have some buttons located inside a ScrollPane that also do not call correctly.
For my button I am using this code:
facebookbtn.on (release) {
getURL("http://www.facebook.com/","_blank","GET");
}
[Code].....
^ This also does not work, with or without the button name before on(release).

On the about page of my Flash website, I wanted 7 buttons to navigate to various labels. I just finished the first button. I made it while I was inside the about_mc. It worked well but would NOT navigate. I took the button OUT of the Movie clip and made a separate layer on the about page for buttons and pasted it there and it worked perfect. When I made it inside the mc, is there some different code I should have used other than the standard code for making a button navigate to a frame. I built an addeventlistener and a function. BUT they only worked when the button was "ON TOP" of the mc NOT when it was INSIDE the mc. I have a transition tween on the about_mc and therefore the button does not tween when it is on TOP of the mc only when it is inside the mc.
var aboutTween:Tween = new Tween(about_mc, "y", Elastic.easeOut, -200, 146, 3, true);
laborLaw1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, laborLaw1);
function laborLaw1(evtObj:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop("laborLaw1_fl"); }

I have implemented a scroll pane component and content of it is a layout of images which are buttons.Scroll pane name is "mc_pane2"Content class is "MyContent"And the button's instance name is "FloraLytell_btn" (It is essensially an mc with TweenLite code in it for roll over and roll out effects) am not able to figure out what would be a code to access a button inside the scroll pane. Below is what I have tried and it doesn't work.

I have a button inside another button which is inside a movieclip. *whew*I have it so that when you click on the movieclip, a dialog box pops up. I have two buttons on the dialog box, but for some reason you can't click on them and when you do, the dialog box just disappears. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about, so how do i get the "YES/NO" buttons to work? Oh, the buttons are not included in that Graphic

Im making a scrolling image gallery basically i have 2 movieclips inside a main movieclip, MC_a and MC_b. MC_a animates the scrolling effect of the thumb panel. within which there are 15 buttons. MC_b has 15 large photos arranged in 15 frames. (1 photo per frame).
what i want to do is when i press a button in MC_a it will gotoAndStop at the frame in MC_b displaying the large photo.
I've tried placing script in MC_b in a layer called "action" and extending it to 15 frames:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();
Object(root).MainMC.MC_a.button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pla y1);
function play1(event:MouseEvent):void
[Code]....
I did this for all 15 buttons but none of them works. btw, i am using actionscript 3, Flash CS5

I have a weird issue with actionscript 3.0 and I wanted to see if anyone knows what might be going on.I create a UILoader in the root layer. Then on a button click, I set it's properties and once it's loaded, I set the size and all that. It works fine.Then I try to instantiate the UILoader in the button click method and the picture loads up enormous. It never happens when I instantiate the root layer. It always happens when I instantiate it in the button click method.The code is below. Does anyone know why it would do this? I traced all the properties I could think of (xscale, yscale, height, width for both the containing movieclip and the UILoader and they are the same regardless of where it's instantiated
var myStage:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var stageItem:UILoader = new UILoader();
//Button click function

So I'm creating this flash game for our company's 2010 halloween greeting card and I'm having some problems.All it is an swf that has balloons randomly moving upward.Each balloon is a movie clip that has another "button" movie clip inside of it. As you click on each balloon, the balloon pops and then recreates itself. The only problem is that the button inside the balloon is not acting like a button the entire time.
The upward movement is being called through an enterFrame event listener and the use of the button goes in and out as the balloon moves upward. It's a pain because you have to click the balloon multiple times in order to get the balloon to pop. Does anyone know why this is or if there is an alternative to enterFrame?
