Flash :: As3 MouseChildren=true Does Not Hold The Name Of The Button Created
Feb 2, 2010
for(var l:int=0; l<anXML.length(); l++){
[Code]....
Currently building a dynamic menu system, with 3 levels of navigation. Currently when mouse children is set to 'true' it doesn't want to remember the name of the menu item created. it spits out, 'instance263' or whatever the number is when I trace it out with my onClick event. With mouseChildren set to 'false' my 3rd tier of navigation ceases to work.
The Goal here is to have the menu items retain an instance name so I can relate back to them and set active states for the current active module. UPDATE: Here is where the problem arises

The problem is that this movie clip has a roll_over on the children, so when I put the second line of code my roll_over doesn't work anymore.

I've got a symbol on stage and a button. The button rotates the symbol CCW half a degree. Code: on(release){ mySymbol._rotation -= 0.5;} I wanna add an on (press and hold) action on button so that the symbol will be rotated continuously when the button is on hold.. I can't make this work for over a week now.

about.buttonMode = true;
about.useHandCursor = true;
I have this on a MC I use for a button - and it works but only on HALF of the object - how can I make so it works on the whole object itself?

I've created an image with a dozen irregular buttons. It all works perfectly. Now I want to edit my flash cs5 file in a way so that, when clicked upon one button, the last of the 4 states (the hitbox state) will remain visible until one clicks another button. Now its looping back to the fist state. Im sure there must be an easy way to do this, something with a stop code maybe?

I'm making a menu. It consist of three mc's (btn1, btn2 and btn3) and two squares The two squares rescale horizontal in different directions depending on the button that is presses. When the squares come to an hold there is a little gap between them underneath the button that was presses and the button is going 20 pixels down into that gap. Below is the code I have used:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.yPos = function(y){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._y += (y - this._y)/3;
[code]....
When the movie starts everything is fine. First the two squares are rescaling. When that is done the buttons are fading in and finaly btn1 is going 20 pixels down in to the gap. But what I would like to accomplish now is that when btn2 is pressed that first btn1 is going back up again when that is done that the two squares are rescaling untill the gap is below btn2 and that after that btn 2 is going down 20 pixels.
And that is where I have problems. Point one when I don't know how to integrate a if (if used) in the button event, so everything is going to move at the same time(btn2 already moves before the squares are in place and the squares are already moving before btn1 is back up again) and secondly the way I have it now btn1 is indeed moving back up again, but after that its up it also going back down again.

I am trying to figure out how to make a script that allows you to click a button, and once it is clicked, the button remains in it's over state. Then, when another button is clicked, the old button that was in its over state reverts to its off state, and the newly clicked button then appears in an over state. How would I do this?

Im new to AS3 (like 5 hours new) and Im after getting stuck with something Im sure is very simple, but Im just not having much luck finding a solution. Basically I have a button which I want to click and hold and then make a movieclip move up and down the y axis. This is what I have so far...
[Code]...
Im sure Im probably going about it in a bizarre way, Im just trying to do it in a way which makes sense to me. So far its working fine for single clicks, so I click the button and the "upwards" function is called which moves the movieclip upwards by 10. The problem Im having is getting it to move continously when the button is clicked and held. Ive read a few possible suggestions relating to loops and setinterval but I just cant seem to make sense of them in a way that applies to what I want to do. Apologies if this is really simple but Ive literally been teaching myself actionscript for all of about 5 hours in total so far and I just cant seem to get past this hurdle.

Button a, when pressed triggers a few things. I triggers a mask to tween in to uncover some text. But the movie will only play as long as i have the button pressed .

Here is what I want:
1) a sprite with a rollover/out tween, going from alpha 0 to 1 on rollover, and back to 0 on rollout (let's call it "containerSprite"). That part is cake.
2) another sprite within the container (let's call it "closeButton"), that goes along for the ride (i.e., its alpha gets tweened along with the container). That's easy enough to do by making it a child of "container". When I say it is "within" the container I mean in terms of x/y.
3) when I move the mouse within containerSprite and onto closeButton, I want the container to stay visible (easy enough by setting mouseEnabled or mouseChildren to false). But I want closeButton to respond to mouseDown events, so I can't set it to mouseEnabled=false, nor can I set containerSprite.mouseChildren=false.
4) there will be several other sprites within the x/y of containerSprite, each with their own rollover/out tween. The catch is, when the mouse is within containerSprite and rolls onto one of them, the alpha of containerSprite SHOULD tween out (unlike when rolling onto closeButton).
For the life of me, I cannot get it all to work. I can get the desired behaviour in (4) easily enough, either by making the other sprites (mouseEnabled) children of containerSprite, or by making them siblings of containerSprite but higher in the display list. But the desired behaviour in (2) and (3) is vexing me: if closeButton is a child of containerSprite then its alpha tweens along with containerSprite (desired), but because it must be mouseEnabled, moving the cursor onto it triggers containerSprite's rollout event (undesired). If instead it is a higher sibling of containerSprite rather than a child, it has the same problem: if it is mouseEnabled, moving onto it counts as a rollOut event for the container. It seems like the solution ought to be easy, and I'm just missing something that is in plain sight.

I have a simple message-board, that dynamically loads text from php and a text file! I have created an up and down button to scroll the text box when you press it! This works fine, but I cannot figure out how to keep scrolling the text if you hold the button down. here is my code for the down button (all my attempts at looping etc I got rid of):

look at the footer below, you'll see a circle around your head. That's your head. If you hold mouse button the MC plays. NOW...if the field vision (green thing) touches your head WHILE holding mouse button...it sends you to frame 2 or choose your own.

So if you press and hold a button, it does the function once, then waits 0.5 of a second or so then repeats the action quickly. How do I remove the 0.5 of a second wait?

Ive made two simple up/down buttons, that "scrolls" a loaded movie by the following code (lets say the movie is loaded to level 5):
_level5._y += 5;
Very simple.
Well, Id like to be able to hold down the button and have the movie scroll continously, like the scroll++ code does for textboxes.Is that possible?

I'm using Flash Cs4 with As3 to make a project. In part of it I have an object which is invisible, but when a button is pressed is made visible. Only problem is, it won't make it visible.
Heres my code
PHP Code:
import flash.events.Event;import flash.events.MouseEvent;aSettings.visible = falsevar setVisible:Boolean = false;buttonVisibility.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,function():void
[Code]....
I'm not receiving any errors at all, but whenever I click the button the output says "false", so I know that its not changing it to true.

Basically what i have is three buttons which can be pressed in a maximum of 7 different combinations. Each of these buttons has a movieclip underneath that advances to the next frame when the button is pressed. Each clip has two frames with actions, frame 1 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = false;
and then frame 2 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = true;
So when you press a button you have true, and false when the button is pushed again.
i already have a constant loop between frames 2 and 4. At frame 4 i think i need to have some code that detects which state the 3 boolean statements are in and then load a movie depending on which statements are true and which are false.

I'm making a flashmovie using AS 3.0 and I have all my button inside a movieclip. (Scene of 1 frame with a movieclip, everything inside the movieclip).
Now, I set a button to false and I want it so that if you click on it, it becomes true. Then, another button(arrow) will do something depending on whether or not it's false or true.
My code looks like this:
stop();
var button_btn = false;
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK.buttonCli ck);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent) {
[code]....
Now it appears to me that the button doesn't go to true at all...

without using alpha 0% in Flash5
this is the problem.
i want to make a button invisible. however, since using alpha 0% will create colordifferences with 16bit colors, I want to use _visible = "0"; (like you would on a MC).
one option is to put a MC inside the button and make that invisible, but obviously you can't without an onClipEvent handler, but if you do so, it doesn't work.
puting the button inside a MC is the second option, and with the _visible command it works... however, it also stops the button from working.
is there a way to get a true invisible button that still remains clickable????
