When Create A Button Within Movieclip Layer / Button Is Not Working
Sep 15, 2009
I am having a problem where my buttons on main timeline are working fine. When I create a button within a movieclip layer (a page importeded from Photoshop as a movieclip) the button is not working once I leave. It doesn't show as a working button when I select Enable simple buttons, when I preview or publish as HTML. The thing is, it is a button, it has an instance name, is that weird blue color... and it works fine when I am double clicked into that movieclip layer. I also tried common library buttons and they work fine until I leave that layer as well, also tried it within other layers and creating a new file and doing it... all no success!

I am trying to create a very basic concept for a program that it based around a WIMP style interface. I have created a few moving windows using movie clips and I now want to add a button inside these movieclips that would act as an exit button, but in theory just returning to the frame before these appear. The problem I am having is that anything I create inside the movie clip is not being recognised, as clicking on it just makes the program think you want to move the window. The code I have used in my actions layer to create the moving effect is[code]...

I have some floating window that opens above my page. The problem is that I don't want buttons above to be trigerable. I tried to put an movieclip on bottom layer of floating window and tell him not to show hand cursor, but it looks as if my floating window is transparent. I could still push buttons below and cursor would change into hand. [URL] go to button "ostalo" and click any of galleries. Then go over reed floating window and you'll notice that you can push buttons underneath.

I want to take a static text field, convert it into a button, and use it as a button. I need it static, because I changed orientation, and I do not know how to do that otherwise. The problem is, even though I converted it to a Button symbol, it does not work when I test the movie. It works fine with "Enable simple buttons", but when I test it, the button is not there, no change in mouse cursor, no reaction at all.So this is what I did:
Made text. // static, not selectable, Orientation: vertical left to right, / //rotated; Two filters: Drop Shadow and Glow;
Converted text field to Button - Symbol (scrollBT)
Editing the Button,I put the same content (the static text field) in all four frames: No luck, not working. without the Hit frame filled (which I think doesn't really make a difference): No luck, not working.Tried again, converting the static text field in the button into a Graphic Symbol: No luck, not working.Tried again, and put some differences in the frames for "ON" and "OVER" etc.: No luck, not working.Tried again, duplicating a similar, working button, edited it, and: No luck, not working.
To the button itself and the AS: The button will be a scroll-button for a text field, with different scroll speeds on rollover and press, but nothing else. The code for that I have (I think). It's something like (and please excuse my incorrect syntax here, but I'm typing from memory; still, I use the Script-Assistant and my syntax is apparently correct; it's also working with other buttons):
on {rollOver} {
function (scroll) {
textfieldtxt.scroll - = 1;}[code]....
I'm at the end of my wits. The only difference I can tell from other (working) buttons I did the same way, is that the scrollBt does not do anything except scrolling, while all of the others have frame actions (gotoAndplay etc.) associated with them.

In AS2 you could put a button under a movieclip and it would still work so you had to put a disabled button above it to stop it working. It seems that in AS3, a movie clip will disable button rollovers underneath it but I need it work!I've done a very basic test to make sure my movie clip isn't set to buttonMode=true or anything like that but it still happens.

I have a simple getURL button within a movieclip within another movieclip. Does anyone have any clue why this isn't working? The button is in the top layer of the child movieclip, and the child movieclip is in the top layer of the parent movieclip, so what am I missing here? I attached a simplified fla to show the issue. In the end, the main red box will be a country on a map and the popup box will contain info about the country and links to pictures and sites.

I am creating a somewhat elaborate (for me at least) navigation for my site. I have created a bunch of animated MC's to use as nav-buttons, and all that works great. The only issue is that when you mouse over the MC-buttons, the cursor stays as an arrow instead of turning into the little hand that always happens with links. The links work, but no little hand. Do I have to have a "hit area" defined in order to get the hand icon to popup or what?

I was playing around last night trying to learn simple AS to make a movie clip act like a button. I wanted the button movie clip to reduce the alpha value of the other movie clip when you rollover the button and when you roll off the button the alpha of the movie clip goes back up. It works, but if you keep rolling over and out of the button movieclip sometimes the alpha gets stuck at a certain value for a bit, then does what its supposed to. I'm using onEnterFrame () to do the hitTest constantly.
Here's the SWF and FLA files for you to look through:
hitTest SWF
hitTest FLA
Here's the AS code I used in the frame to do this:
Code:
onEnterFrame = function() {
if ( background._alpha > 100 ) {
background._alpha = 100;

Why would you create a button within a movieclip instead of just having a movieclip? Does the 2 different types give you more scripting options?

I don't know if this is possible, but can you have a button on one layer play a mc on another layer? I am trying to build a file where when my button is clicked, it will move the x and y axis of a movie clip on the layer below. I'm working in CS4 action script 3.0 (no drop down menu option?)

I am trying to add these two layers (in moogaloop_success.zip) to this template (flashmo_140_business), and I have been struggling to add it for more than week. Trying innumerable google searches to no avail. Layers:[URL]My goal is to add this new Button in say "Our Services" layer as movie_btn and open a new window to vimeo website when that button is pressed (as shown in moogaloop_success.zip).
I changed the wlink symbol in moogaloop_success.zip to movie_btn, but I keep getting errors like, Error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property movie_btn through a reference with static type class. or Error 1009: cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

What I have going on is basically a sideshow. I have six monsters/creatures separated into three parts under the top, middle and bottom layers. I have six arrows (already working buttons) to control previous and next functions (action script already working and on a loop). My end goal is to have the prev/next arrows control the appropriate top, middle, or bottom section making all the monsters/creatures interchangeable. ex:cat ears, monkey eyes, robot mouth ect...
Here is my problem: I don't know how to designate the top, middle, or bottom arrows to control the appropriate layer. In test mode all arrows are currently switching all layers.[code]...
