I've some flex structure:
<s:BorderContainer id="addFunctionBarContainer" width="100%" height="50"
mouseOver="addFunctionBar_hover(event)">
<s:Button id="addFunctionBarButton" width="20" height="20"[code]..
Explain: when I hover addFunctionBarContainer the addFunctionBarButton state should be hovered.
My itemrenderer has 2 custom states, no hovered state, and no normal state[code]...
When I initialize it, I force it to go to state2. The problem is that when the mouse rolls out away from the item, it relapses back to the first state state1. It's kind of weird since I don't really have a hovered/unhover state.
create a rollover button that once hovered over would create the snow and once 'un-hovered over' (<---:s) the snow would stop falling. I tried creating the button but kept getting errors etc.... Im a total noob (been using flash for about 1 month) if you could give us a hand that would be great....
View 5 RepliesI have flash which contains the map of the United States. Each state is a separate button. When each state is in hover mode, it changes the look/size of that state and adds names of the cities in white on the particular state.I would actually like to add 2 things to this flash.
1) When the state is hovered over, not only will the state change, but the cities belonging to that state (in the list to the right, will highlight)
2) I would like the city names in the list, when hovered over to highlight and to activate the hover mode of that particular state. In addition, that cityName button in the list and the state button should be able to direct to a URL upon hit.
I currently have each state as a button with each state's hover mode changes.I will be changing the cityNames into buttons (they are currently MCs).Once I change the CityNames into Buttons, then modify their hover modes to look like a highlight, then I know to do the following for the URL direct:[code]One of these will go on each text cityname button. But how do I tell the button to also activate the NewYorkState_btn into hover mode?I will also need each State image button to automatically arrange to the front when they are hovered so that they will not be overlapped by other states.Also, What do I do to get each state to hover and simultaneously highlight the appropriate CityName button(s) in the list?I have included an image below (FLashMapHover.jpg) so that it is a bit more clear what I am trying to do.
I need to trigger the hover state of a Flex button programatically, so that it looks like the user is hovering over it. There is a flex page about "Manually dispatching events":

Which would work, but what I'd really like to do is change the style of the button without having to throw an event. How can I do this?
How to set a hover state (upSkin) when hover on another element? This example is not working on spark:

Would like to do something like this:
<s:Button id="but1"/>
<s:Button label="change" mouseOver="button2_mouseOverHandler(event)"/>
protected function button2_mouseOverHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{
//make but1 look like I'm hovering it
}
I was able to get the links working as they should but i can find no way to get the hover effect (not even the doopingTextArea class) I have content coming in through XML (a list of words and link)... I'm trying to create a menu where when you rollover the word the entire background area of that menu item changes color. Just like a CSS menu that creates a hover state that fills the entire background area of that item. Since the content is dynamic, it would need to have a scrollbar that expands/contracts etc.
View 2 Repliesanyone who takes the time to read and answer this post. I'm having an issue on a file that I'm working on at work. The basis of the project is that its an image of a map, with windmills on certain cities. When you rollover the windmill various things happen. The turbine starts to spin, information about the project in that city shows up in dynamic text boxes, etc.
Anyway, I have one movie clip for the windmill with actionscript (that makes the things mentioned above happen) on the actual symbol, so I do not have to create different movieclips for each city. However, due the way this works, when your mouse touches one of the blades of the windmill turbines, the turbine spinning animation stutters. This happens because when the turbine moves it causes your mouse to rollOut of and rollOn to the windmill rapidly.
It seems that I need to create a hit state for the windmill that is smaller than the bounding box for the entire movieclip. I'm unsure how to do this since the on(rollOver) and on(rollOut) states of the movieclip prevent me from being able to place that type of actionscript on the actual hit state (which would be inside of the movieclip). I could easily just take the actionscript on the main movieclip symbol and put it on JUST the hit state inside, however, I would need 60 different movieclips of the windmill for each city if I did it this way.
Is there any way that I can define a hit state that is smaller than the bounding box of my movieclip button, so that I do not have to create 60 different movieclips? I forgot to mention: Unfortunately since I'm doing this for a client at work, I can not post my file up anywhere to show. So if you need any more information or I was not specific enough please let me know. Also, I can post my code if need be.
Add Button with dynamic text and hover state
I haven't used flash for a bit but I'm really stuck on something that should be simple.
I want to add buttons or MoiveClip to make a navigation.
Each button will have different text on it and they need a hover state that changes the color of the text.
I have done this to add the buttons with text. This works but I do get an error message.
How can I change the color of the text when I hover over the button ? How can I stop the error message ?

I have this code about navigation using movieclip buttons. I just made the currently selected button disabled when it is in the current page but I just cant figure out on how to maintain it in its hover state (It keeps on returning to its normal state).
Here's the code I've written on the first frame on the main timeline(scene1), I have 4 buttons namely mcButton1, mcButton2, mcButton3, mcButton4 and 4 labeled frames, page1, page2, page3 and page4.:
var page:String;
var btnArray:Array = [mcButton1, mcButton2, mcButton3, mcButton4];var pageArray:Array = ["page1", "page2", "page3", "page4"];

View 1 RepliesI am trying to have a link on a web page open up a flash video that appears to hover over the html. I have read web pages explaining parts of this but I cannot get it all to work together.
I am using swfobject to embed the flash object into the web page. I think I need to use javascript to handle the event of clicking on the button and then use z-index to have it appear to hover. Ideally the flash would center itself in the middle of the browser
I need to know if it's possible to have an HTML rollOver state effect Flash. I want the user to rollOver an HTML button and when they do, the Flash movie below it plays.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create an item renderer for an AdvancedDataGrid, using a MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer.
When I attach a sample custom item renderer (MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer) to hierarchical data in an AdvancedDataGrid the item renderer does not render the cell correctly. The custom renderer will only render as a hovered (highlighted) state if it also not selected. When the row is selected and hovered then the custom item renderer will only render the cell as selected.
How can I get the custom renderer to recognize that is should render highlighted when the row is highlighted?
The image below shows an example of this. The first row is selected and the mouse is over the second cell. As you can see the cell is rendered as 'selected' and not as 'hovered'.
This is an example application:

I'm creating a product for my A2 course and am doing it for Photography.
For the 'what is needed' page I want it to be just text and then when each indivuaul text is hovered over I want the thumbnail images to appear.
I have a button that when hovered over scrolls out to reveal the page. I then want it so that when someone rolls out from the button, it then scrolls back in to how it started. This seems to work ok, with just one small problem, the page doesn't necessarily always stay scrolled out, even if you don't move the cursor away from the hit area of the button. I have a flash file which contains a simplified version of the button as I would to achieve it working, and then on a separate layer my faulty button. Its too big to attach, but if anyone can help i would gladly email the file

View 1 RepliesI have a flash map that contains 51 movieClips, one for each state.Sample instanceName for a state (Alabama) would be: S_01
I have a XML record that contains specific info for each state.<stateID>01</stateID
I am trying to link the stateID's in the XML record to the state movieClips that make up the map.var stateInstanceName = 'S_' + stateID;
I was just trying to do a simple trace command to see if I could pull the _width of each state clip to see if I was linked up:

It's my understanding that view states can be useful when switching the layout of design elements. Such as, a loading page as one state and the main application design in another state. Is this the correct use of them? Additionally, I have a label in State1 and I cannot figure out how to access that label via actionscript. labelID.text = "New Text"; is not working.

I am trying to get converted to Actionscript 3 from AS2.In old versions of flash, you simply placed the sound in a keyframe inside the button on the over or down state.
