Building A Flash Drop Down Menu?

Oct 12, 2009

HOW do I go about doing it?Ive tried...buttonon "over" create to movie clipinside movie clip have my animations and sublink buttonsit works fine, but there's one problem, The hit area of the main button HAS to cover the hidden sublinks, so even if you scrolled your mouse over the bottom of the button (in the invisible area) it will still show since its in the hit area).How can I create a simple nav drop down? I seriously have went through almost all tutorials, both video and text, and nothing has worked! I am using Actionscript 3, or whatever the tutorial says to use.edit: Here is something I'm working on. Its a button, and on the rollover it creates the animation. Obviously it doesnt work, because you cant have a button inside a button, so I don't know the actionscript to do this.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Building A Menu And For Each Button Of The Menu?

Mar 31, 2007

I am building a menu and for each button of the menu, subbuttons apear beneath it along the menu. And I am having some problems. Each of the menu buttons has animations for rollOver and rollOut. What can I do so that when I move over the subbuttons the menu button won't start the rollOut animation. I have to extend the hit state. If I put the subbuttons in the same movie clip as the menu button, the animation would be bad because I am doing width, height, x and y tweenings with ActionScript and addind something the the clip would change these properties. Pls help.

Is it possible to extend the hit state of the menu button in some way ?

Flash Drop Down Menu XML

Dec 14, 2007

I have a vertical dropdown menu created in Flash linking to an XML file. Each of my submenus needs to link to a document within my website. I am using a getURL command in flash to link to my page but when I put the page name into the xml file it isn't working correctly. eg, when I click on the sub menu button the URL address for the page should be [URL]. It is coming up as [URL]. If I correct the URL the page is there but how do I program flash to bring up the correct URL.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Drop Down Menu Tweening The Menu Gets Stuck, Or Starts Flickering?

Mar 17, 2010

Each time I make a drop down menu I face some problems, For example, when I use tweening to roll out a menu ( via ROLL_OVER/ ROLL_OUT), sometimes the menu gets stuck, or starts flickering after it is rolled out if I move the cursor away, and move back on it.
 
How could I solve this, should I use a timer to disable the button until the tween finishes (or this would be good for nothing)?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Building A Wrapping Menu?

Jan 21, 2010

What I have so far is all my menu items get added to an array and they have a start y property. They are all evenly placed apart.I'm taking this is little steps so as a start I wanted to click on a menu item and just move it to the center of the menu and reposition the others.I have the mid point stored.So when I click the item I find out what index in the array the item is at and I find how many index positions away the item with the start y I want to move to is.I then go through every item in the array and tell it to look that many positions away, get the startY of the item there, and set it as its destination Y. In theory it seems sound to me but it completey does not work.the code I have so far is like this

Code:
private function rearrangeStartY($menuitem:MenuItem):void

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Drop Down Menu Over HTML?

Jul 6, 2009

I know there has been several posts on this topic, but i wanted to see what was the best way. I need to create a drop down menu on an html site. I was thinking of doing it in flash however i need the drop down to extend downwards over the html content. I read online that you can make the flash bg transparent using wmode and that would make it look as if it is overlying the html. However this transparent mode isnt supported in Safari. Is there a better way of doing this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get A Drop Down Menu To Work In Flash

Aug 22, 2009

I am trying to get a drop down menu to work in Flash but cannot get the Actionscript to work. I am a novice at Actionscript so I'm not even sure where to start. Basically, I want the menu to drop down when you hover over it. If I can show me how I should start the script, I can probably figure the rest out. I have four drop down buttons that should come down when you hover or roll over. I can't attach the flash file because it is over the file limit.

Mar 11, 2009

i would like to make a website with this kind of menu.url...

1. where can i get a source for drop down menus? the only place i know is flash den, but they charge money, and i couldn't find similar one like this..

2. is it possible to just drop the flash file into my html website?I just want the drop down menu on top of the white box. eventually my website will have more links and i love the simplicity of the drop down. i know how to make a drop down menu with css, but i just like that simple motion. it's pretty to me.

3. what would be the best place to start learning flash? i'll be taking flash class in a local community college, but class won't start till May. i would like to learn step by step. I bought a book, but it's harder than i thought..
