Flash :: Disable Button And Div Element Using Script?
Oct 10, 2011
In my application, I've created 3 boxes. In the first button, I'm using a flash button, in my second button, I'm using a <div> element, and in my third button, I'm also using a <div> element. If I click the flash button that shows images from the disk to upload.
If I click the second box, it means that some operation should be performed, and if I click the third box, some other operation should be performed.
What I need to happen is if I click the first button, I want to disable the second and third buttons, if I click on the second button, I want to disable the first and third buttons, and if I click the third button, I want to disable the first and second buttons.

I'm working on an AS3 project whereby an element needs to expand (downward) on hover. The problem is that I can't figure out how to expand the element without AS3 auto-scaling all of it's contents. For example (this is a Sprite):
[Code]...
Will automatically grow all children of this to fill the available space. I'm looking to disable this functionality, leaving the previously visible content in-place, so that I can reveal additional content with the new space. Playing with scaleY in the TweenLite statement doesn't seem to do anything.
It doesn't make any sense to me why this is the default behavior, but I come from an HTML (think "box-model") layout mindset, so I think that's getting me into trouble. Perhaps I've got the wrong idea entirely - is there a more AS3-appropriate method for "expanding" this to reveal the extra content?

I have flash where there is a link for song download. And, at the bottom of the flash I've a count, loaded thorugh flash vars which should increment everytime donload button is hit. Please let me know what approach should i take to do that. can i call a Java method on donload button which will insert a row in the table and and then get the count and render it to the count variable in my flash?
May be this extremely confusing. Here is a very similar example on how it is done. This is actually very similar to what i want to do. [URL] on this link there is count below which increments you hit the download button.

im trying to disable a radio button group in flash, so users cant change the selected item.
im using the following code to create the radio button
var rbuttongroup:RadioButtonGroup=new RadioButtonGroup("radioGroup");
then adding radio buttons to it on the fly, my question is how do i go about disabling the radio buttons ?
EDIT - im using action script 3.0 !! and when i try doing
rbg.enabled = false;
i get an error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property enabled through a reference with static type fl.controls:RadioButtonGroup.

My question has to do with tweened buttons that call an element onto the stage from right , on centre stage this called element stops centered. This is as far as I get...What I would like to happen is ,on the press of another tweened button the element from first tweened button vacates left and is replaced with called element from this button, and so on for 5 separate buttons, of course these can be pressed in any order..

I know that there is no such function as getElementByName in Flex but I also now that you can do this["object_id"] to get the element of the application u're in.What about getting an element inside another element?I've tried making element["id"] ? But in my try-catch it always runs the "catch" part..how do I get an element inside another element just having it's id in dynamically created string form?

I'm trying to figure out how to use AS to access frames of a movie clip within a button symbol (using Flash MX 2004), and I seem to be stuck. I drafted a small test version of the FLA I'm working on, and it is attached to this message.
Specifically, my intention is to have a two-state button that goes into "selected mode" after the first mouse click, and then goes back to normal after a 2nd click. I can already handle the functional aspect of this using a global boolean like the one in the attached file. The problem is that I want to represent the current status of the button with a visual change; in the attached example FLA, the intention was to change the color of the text label on this button from grey to red when the button is in its "selected" state.
In this forum I found a similar question where someone had provided a "menu.fla" that had a row of buttons that acted more or less like a radio set, which is somewhat similar to my need. I've been trying to use the same sort of method, having converted the "up" state of the button text into a movie clip symbol with two frames (one for each state), and then trying to use AS to do a "gotoAndStop()" on the desired frame of the up label animation. The problem is that I cannot figure out how to actually make this work ... no matter what sort of path I try to use to get to the movie clip animation within the button, I cannot seem to set the text animation to jump to the "selected" frame (2).
I think my problem is that I've been unable to glean any understanding from the Flash MX docs about the differences between an object name and a symbol name and an identifier and an instance name and a blah blah blah, or about which of them (if any) actually is an ID that can be accessed via ActionScript. Also, MX 2004 seems to provide almost no compile-time error checking on the validity of a target path either, so I've been reduced to just throwing every combination at it that I can think of. None have worked, so I'm at a loss.
If anyone can explain to me why the attached FLA doesn't cause the text to stay red after a mouse click, no matter which of the commented out lines I try, it would undoubtedly be a big help to me.
(Please note that the button in this FLA uses a basic flashing animation for mouseovers ... it was just something quick to implement to emulate the mouseover animation in my full file, so please don't be distracted by it. Also note that I haven't tried to implement any code to return the button to a non-selected status yet. One thing at a time.)
RESOLVED: It was apparently the nesting of a movieclip inside of a button that prevented the original target path from working (and one of the tutorials at this website seems to support that). Once I knew what the proper path syntax was and didn't have to worry about that part anymore, eventually the rest fell into place pretty easily once I started using a movieclip for the button rather than an actual button.

I've built a rather robust tooltip class recently that attaches and draws a single tooltip sprite to the root, then uses MOUSE_OVER to detect when it is over a tooltippable object, and shows the appropriate tooltip text. At the moment, I'm ensuring that any elements in my application which wants to take advantage of showing tooltips implement the ITooltippable interface, and expose a public getter, get tooltip().

Basically I have 14 text boxes, each box draws its content from an external txt file. Next to each text box is a button. I want the button to be either visible=true or visible=false depending on weather or not the text box has content or is "undefined" Here is what I have so far, and it's not working:[code] I would like a FOR loop to just run through the variables and check to see if any of them are undefined. if it is, then make the correct send button invisible.

In my code, when a user clicks on a button, I set the alpha of the button to 50 and set enabled=0. This works to essentially disable and grey out the button. The problem is that even though the button has been disabled, it still sits in the over state until the user moves the cursor off the hit area... Funny, no?
Since you can't tell a button what frame to go to, how do I get it to go back to its up state (without recreating all my buttons as movieclips and doing the whole thing manually)?

I have some code similar to the following:
ActionScript Code:
//
//
var box = new Sprite();
box.graphics.lineStyle(10, 0xFF0000);
[code]...
If you click the box, its alpha is set to 1 rather than .1 because of an errant MOUSE_OUT event.What is the right way to fully disable this button when it is clicked?I'd rather not remove the event listeners because I have a bunch of different MOUSE_OVER functions on many different buttons and keeping track of which function is with which button and whether or not the listeners are already assigned seems like way too much work just to properly disable a button.

I have a button that when you roll over it a big window pops up, but then when you click on it, it pops the window up again, now its not a problem but i would like to know if i can disable the click function somehow. so that only the roll over works.
I know you can probably use a movie clip and just tell it with actionscript to load when rolled over, but i don't know how

I have some buttons that play an external swf inside an empty movie clip on the main timeline. I was wondering what Actionscript I need to disable the button when it is pressed. I want the button to still have roll over functionality and everything, but I just want the swf to load once when the button is pressed. Below is the script I am using right now.
on (release) {
//load Movie Behavior
if(this.content == Number(this.content)){

I have a movie and after the intro the enter button takes me to the next frame (11) and stops. there i have a drop down menu with button instances on each of the drop downs. The drop down is in a movie clip so i am using on (release) {_root.gotoAndPlay("s1"); } on the button instances to take me to root level to say frame 12 and stops. Each button instance has a different frame label to go to, s1, s2 etc - the idea being that back at root level i can have the content of each of the buttons on each of the frame labels (s1 at frame 12 , s2 at frame 13 etc) .... this works fine except the drop down menu in each of these new frames retains the action script on the drop down button instances - this is fine for all the buttons that will take me to another content page at root level - what i dont want is the AS to remain on the button for the page i am currently on - cos if you click on it it takes you back through the intro etc to get to its frame label again .

I need to disable a button once the user has clicked it! I also need the colour of the button to change once it has been clicked as well (I need it to just grey out - not sure if this can be solved using actionscript??) The only method I could think of of accomplishing this is to put each button in their own UILoader, but I'm hoping there is a simpler method!?

I need my buttons to stay put, but, I need to figure out away to make them stop working temporarily. I have layers above themthat become visible, and the buttons underneath these visiblelayers are working, even though they're covered up. Is there a wayto inactivate them, or make the layers above them take precedencewithout changing the button's _visible property?

I have a site with 908 buttons. Basically a person clicks a button, makes a donation (through paypal) and then that button gets their name displayed when the mouse hovers over it. Essentially the button becomes the property of the person who makes the donation. how to disable each button when someone clicks it. Disabling a button isn't the problem. I need it disabled only when the person has made a valid donation. Each button has a unique instance name (b001 - b908). There must be a way.

I have a button which I use for sending a message. When the message text is empty, it should not be possible to click the button.
This is all fine and not an issue. The only thing that is bugging me is the fact that I can disable the send button but the image does not get disabled (like I would expect).
Is there a way to do this elegantly because I don't want to provide a sendicon_disabled.png and change it myself (I don't think this should be my job).
