Actionscript 2.0 :: Button And Movie Clip For Flash?
Mar 17, 2011
I'm extremely new to flash, having just started using it this semester for a class. I'm putting together a fairly simple "portfolio slideshow" (it's a mock up for a website) for an assignment, but ran into some issues.
I have two sections on the "home page"; still images and time-based files. Each file is activated by a button (a thumbnail of the image). Ideally, when you click on the thumbnail, it brings up the image, or the movie. I got the buttons to work fine for navigating through the still images, but I can't get them to work for the movie files. I want to be able to click the button and have the movie file pop up. I have a feeling it has something to do with mistakes during importing the files, or just me not knowing the script.

I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.

I am trying to move a movie clip containing content via AS3 tween with a button outside of the movie clip. I have achieved this effect on another project by using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(content_mc,"x",Regular.easeOut,content_mc.x,theXPosition,.8,true);
I set up a moveContent funtion using that tween, then used:
Actionscript Code:
content_mc.aboutBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutClick);function aboutClick(e:MouseEvent):void { trace("aboutClick");current_btn=e.currentTarget.name; moveContent(588,-538,"about.swf");}
to move the content. I am just wondering how to achieve the same effect but use a button on a separate layer that will be static.

I'm trying to implement a multiple file uploader and expose and API for javascript. Even though I think I can handle urlrequests, I'm having a hard time making a SimpleButton.I want the button to have the size of the movieclip/sprite that I create. I'm trying without luck to make a movieclip of 130px x 30px, and have a simple button that fills the entire area. What I try to do in actionscript:
private var _button:SimpleButton = new SimpleButton();
private var _fileList:FileReferenceList = new FileReferenceList();
private var _buttonShape:Shape;[code].......
I'm using intelij to compile this. how to build it with the SDK alone.

I have a feeling this is a very simple thing to do, but I just can't seem to find an answer by simply googling it.
I have no other actionscript in this whole .fla file except a stop();
I have a button, inside the button I have a movie clip at the OVER location.
That movie clip simply plays 10 frames, and at the last frame I set the action stop();
All I want it to do is stop these 10 frames from looping, while the scene keeps doing what it does. Instead, as soon as the 10th frame inside that movie clip plays, it stops the whole scene.

I want to play a movie clip when I click a button.I made 3 states: inicial (how it looks before anything happens) (up)hover (plays an animation after waiting 20 frames) (over)click (plays an animation right away) (down)I placed these movie clips inside of my button's up, over, and down frames. This works great except when I click, i'll need to click and hold for my animation to get past the first frame.

I have several website pages set up on different frames inside the content (which is a movieclip) of the home page - which is on frame 1 of the main timeline. The content movieclip name is contentMc.
My About page is at frame 10. There is a button on this page (called btnAbout_contactpg) that I want to make jump to my Contact page (frame 50) - all of which is nested under the main contentMc movieclip.
This is the pathway on my contentMc (where all of my pages are located), just in case that doesn't make sense: [URL]
I have looked at several different instructions online, but none of them seem to work.
EDIT:
I am also trying to get a button on my gallery page to load an external image, but it is not recognizing where the button is either:
btnGallery_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showPic1);
function showPic1 (e:MouseEvent) {
var target:Object=e.target;
var parent=target.parent;
my_loader.load(new URLRequest("image-0.jpg"));
}

I want to create a class, or classes, that will allow my designers, working in Flash Pro CS5, to call a Movie Clip from their library to be used as a button on the stage. In a perfect world they would do this with one line of code, setting the dynamic label text, the X and Y position, and setting the URL for the onClick function such as below: [code]How do I direct it to what MC I want in the Library? I am guessing it would be another parameter of the method call, but how would that work? I would like them to be able to use the code on any MC design they create.

I am very new to flash. I've built a movie clip, inside this movie clip there is a button. There button does not respond to clicks (when I hover over it my cursor remains the same). I know it's not a problem with the button, since when I put the button directy in the main scene it works just great.
Btw, I am using flash cs4 with action script 3

I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?
