I have a Flash website and would like to add content that resides within a scrolling pane and I'm unsure of the best way to proceed.Content is single Excel doc comprised of several tables listing machine equipment parts in a table format.There are no active/formula cells.These are simply multi-column / multi-row tables with simple data already entered.I want to display these tables within the confines of an existing Flash website and need some help, firstly, with identifying the simplest way to proceed.
This is a repost, but I've still not figured out a solution. I have a Flash movie that appears on a webpage. The Flash contains scrolling content ( scrollpane, text field, whatever).
The containing webpage is tall, and therefore also has scrollbars. My Problem: When users try to use the MouseWheel to scroll through my Flash scrolling data, the browser page scrolls as well. It's very annoying.
I would like to be able to have the MouseWheel scroll my Flash scrolling content when it's over the flash, but scroll the webpage when it's not over the Flash.
Does anybody know a way to supress wheel-based browser page-scrolling while my mouse is over a Flash movie??? Is there a way to eat/stop propagation, whatever, of the wheel event in the brwoser, either from Flash or from Javascript?
I know how to create a scrolling pane that pulls in text. I test my methods by creating a text box with text, the convert to movie and make sure the Export to Actionscript is check and then on the Scrollingpane just make sure the target has the correct movie name. If I do this in a blank document everything works but in my Flash project it does not pull the text from the text box and I have no idea why. Has anyone experience this before. I just cannot find out why it works in a blank document and not in my flash project. I tried attaching my flash document but it does not fit.
I'm working on a site for a customer: [URL].. The problem is that when you click on "About," then "Gear," then scroll down, and then click on another link (like "Photos") the pane does not go back to the top. I know that this is very trivial, but the customer is insisting that I fix it. I can privately send a link to the .fla source file to anyone who replies here.
I have a movieclip that loads a scrollpane onto the stage. In that scroll pane I have some dynamic text boxes and some buttons. I cannot figure out how to reference those buttons or text boxes. For example, the instance name of the scroll pane is TAQ_Score then the content loaded into the scroll pane is TAQ_Score_Sheet. Then the instance name of the text box is TAQ_Score_Name.
So I assume the reference should be something like: TAQ_Score.TAQ_Score_Sheet.TAQ_Score_Name.text = MyVariable;This reference works fine outside of the scrollpane, but not when I put it into the scrollpane.
I am writing an custom component in Flex 3.2 that extends the panel component. After a user performs a certain action I would like to hide the main content area in the Panel component, as well as the Control Bar if one is specified. Any ideas on how to do this? controlBar.visible does not seem to hide the control bar, and I don't know of another easy way of accessing the main content area besides iterating through all the children of the main panel, and I would like to avoid that if possible.
How can i drag a real pane movie clip (there are several movie clip inside) togather with fake pane ?

I'm using getURL command to link to several web pages from Flash (actionscript 2) Works fine. Now I need to link to a PDF that is located on the web pages. Tried the getURL with the location of the pdf - no luck. What am I missing?
The scenario is: An HTML frameset with 2 frames. I need to create a button in Actionscript 3 (and put it in the top frame) in order to scroll down the content of the main frame. I thought of Javascript. I end up writing a script that works but when I call the Javascript function in Actionscript nothing happens. Maybe a silly mistake maybe not...
If you want to test it, download my files here.
My source code is:
The Javascript in the html of the top frame:
Code: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT"> <!-- function pageScrollDn()
I am running into an issue with the Flash ScrollPane component. I have a series of graphics that I load into the scrollpane using contentpath. One of the bigger more complicated graphics seems to be shutting down the scrollpane. Once it is loaded the scrollbars on the sides are very small and when you try to scroll all the content disappears. The arrows seem to work, but that kind of negates the point of the scrollpane. The scrollpane works fine with all of the other graphics I load into it.
how to get the scrollpane to take on the more complicated graphic? It is a series of drawing shapes and about 70 graphic instances.

Simple bit of code, a loop that attaches a movieclip, which in turn contains a button. Now, when the button triggers an onRollOver, I need to be able to move the clip which the button resides in. I can't get it to work, and I think it's a scope thing; (Where ident_btn is the instance name of the button in the dynamically attached mc):
Code: for (var i=0; i <= 15; i++) { identID = "ident" + i; var tempgrid = grid_mc.attachMovie("ident_proto", identID, grid_mc.getNextHighestDepth()); tempgrid.ident_btn.onRollOver = function() { // Move the clip this button belongs to } tempgrid.ident_btn.onRollOut = function() { // Un move the Clip this buttons belong to }
I'm looking for tutorials that show how to create scrolling content in flash, but instead of an auto scroll, I would like to click and drag the content.Similar to the link below.
I'm working on a banner advertisement but I've hit a bit of a snag. First, here's what I'm trying to do.
1 - Eight MovieClips are added to the timeline. They are based on a MovieClip in the library which contains 1 dynamic text field.
2 - Content is to scroll on screen(from right-to-left), then off in a cyclic pattern. Once an item is scrolled off-screen, it's position is reset it's original position (slightly off-screen on the right side) effectively preparing them for more scrolling.
3 - The same MovieClip can't scroll in if it was the last one to be on-screen.
That's it really. When the clips are created, the dynamic text field for each is set to a counter value which basically gives each a number from 1 to 9, letting me differentiate each clip from the one other. As it is right now, it 'sort of' works which well, just doesn't cut it which is why I'm here. Content merrily scrolls maybe 3 or 4 times on average, then nothing happens. I'm sure my logic is wrong somehow (obviously) but I'm going cross-eyed trying to figure it out.
Here's a link to the source .FLA. I'm using CS4 but I saved it as CS3 to cater to the largest group possible.

Oh, and I'm using the caurina Tweener package for the scrolling of MovieClips. use any tweening package, native or otherwise..
I have a project for my website and I would like to add scrollbar to the 3 pages. I have different layers for each page (with animation on each of them) and some layers start at different frames for example layer 1 goes from frame 1 to 20 layer 2 from frame 5 to 20 layer 3 from frame 10 to 20 how can you do this? do you select everything on frame 20 and convert it into a MC? Where do place the mask?
I have seen the tutorial that explains how to scroll a movie clip but there was only 1 frame and I do not know how to adapt it to multiple layers
But this is only for 1 movieclip. And I need the entire stage and everything of whats in it (except for the layer with the background image) to be moved this way. But how?Also want the scroll to be restricted to a max y-position of 860px even if the entire stage goes as far as a height of 1508px.
I have a movieclip linked to a scrollPane.It loads into it fine. The problem is that the scrollPane won't scroll the full size of the movieclip. The movieclip is about 1000 high. If I set the scrollpane size to 500 by 500, it'll scroll down about 600y of the movieclip, but no further.How do you tell a scrollPane to allow scrolling the full size of it's content?And on a similar thread, is there a way to tell a whole swf to scroll? So if you have a swf that's 1000x 500y, and it's dynamic content becomes 1000x 800y, can you make the whole swf scroll like an html page, or do you have to encase all the content in a scrollpane?
Inside a datagrid, I essentially want to create a "download button" itemrenderer to the right of the name of a downloadable object, resulting in something like the following link: [URL]
The download function operates upon the currently selected row and is called when one of the download buttons is clicked. Therefore, I am wondering if anybody knows of a way to select the row the itemrenderer button is contained within as the active row when one of the download buttons is clicked.
In preloading a movie, I need to listen to the load progress of an external FLV that resides on the next frame-- the grandChild of a movieClip on the stage.This is the actionScript of the mentioned grandChild:
Code: import fl.video.*; function onFLVComplete(event:VideoEvent):void { event.target.play();[code]....
Now, if I understand it correctly all I have to do is listen to (making sure my child mapping is correct) this loader....correct? I have the following in on the first frame throwing a 'reference to null object or property' error:
What is the best way to create buttons to give content a scrolling function.The functionality is provided by ScrollPane, where content, images etc. can be used and scrolled but aesthetically buttons are preferred.There is actionscript for creating scrollable text fields with buttons, but it requires constant clicking and only applies to text. Just mentioning this if there is something similar to attain the functionality of ScrollPane for content.
I have an external swf called "home". On the "home" stage is a button, and when this button is clicked, im wanting it to play a movieclip on the Flash document the container resides in (index.swf).
I would like to scroll content in a Movie Clip (size: 10000 x 8000 px) with Flash Scrollpane component (AS3). However, I want to make the content scroll in both X & Y axis instead of along of the scrollbar axis. How can I achieve this?
i've got a fair bit of text i'm trying to keep on an internal page by just making each section a scrolling content box. So there are 3 buttons at the top, each 'scrolls' onto a new section and I would like the ability for it to scroll back too, hence using the tween class to do this. I've managed to set it up and each button goes to each 'page' fine in reading order, so to speak (1, 2, 3), but if I got to 1, 2 then back to 1 it will start from 0 on the x axis.
Basically what i'm wanting to do is set the tween from the current _x value. So if I go 1, 2, then back to one, it will take the current _x value from 2, and scroll the opposite direction back to one. I am using the following code on the buttons:
when I leave a window with flash content, in this case, a scrolling movie clip with buttons inside set to hyperlink popups (only 1 hyperlink is set so far): [URL] the flash content will disappear. So if I go back to the window, I have to reload the page to get the flash to appear again. Same thing happens if I minimize the window, when I bring it back up, no flash, and I have to reload the page. The menubar with the boxes at the top is flash as well (different swf) and that doesn't have this problem.
I have a dynamic text filed scrolling with a drag button on a track or the mousewheel. What I am trying to do now is have the scroll button and track not visible if the content is smaller than the text field.
ActionScript Code: //this if statement not working as should. button and track are always invisible. //txt is text field name if (txt.textHeight < txt.height){[code]......
