I have a <s:Scroller> surrounding a <s:Group>. The scroller works, but I want to increase the vertical step size on the scroller. I've tried everything, but am having no success. Modifying the scroller.verticalScrollBar.stepSize value in the init function seems logical; however, this approach fails.

I have a flash template in Flash AS - 2 , with a initial sound that triggers at the very beginning in full sound.

how to code is a small 12-step volume bar. For each increasing step a white dot should show, so when the volume reaches maximum 12 dots would be shown. Same goes for when the volume is decreased, each step will remove a dot (from right towards left) until the mimimum of 1 step is reached. To turn the volume up/down two buttons should be used, a "-" and "+". I'm not asking for a design or complete code, "just" a hint or walkthrough. Been trying for several hours now.

i apologize if this post is redundant. i'm searching unsuccessfully for recent, step-by-step instructions on how to set up ActionScript 3, Flex 4.5 and AIR 2.6 with TextMate on Mac OS X. i've found several posts concerning required bundles, but most of the threads are a few years old in addition to having convoluted, sparse instructions for setting up. it seems that auto-complete and .swc files are supported, which is great. in addition to instructions i'm also very interested in learning about what isn't supported and other common pitfalls.
i've been familiarizing myself with TextMate's UI and it's amazing. i would much rather use it than Flash Builder / Eclipse, or even Flash Professional. one last question - i understand that it's possible to set up our own keyboard shortcuts to compile with MXMLC and write the .swf to disk. is it possible to have the .swf auto open in Flash Player Debugger after it is compiled. essentially, i'd like to continue using Command+Enter shortcut for testing movies in Flash Professional to build and launch since i would certain have a difficult time adjusting to new muscle memory.
I�m mostly a beginner with flash actionscript. A site we advertise on asks me to embed a clicktag script to help them track the stats for each banner. I�ve read the directions on macromedia/adobe, I�m still a little confused. I have to make the whole banner clickable, so can I just create a movie clip on the top layer, make the alpha 0% and add this script to it to do so?:
on (release) {
getURL (clickTAG, "_blank");
}
I�m looking for more thoruough step by step instructions to ensure that whatever I hand over to them will work.
I would like to know if it is possible to control the property of movie clip with the enterframe event until it meets a particular condition then if it does another one.
1) My MC (this) of size 50% increases by 10% on enter frame until it reaches 150% of it's size
2) When it does reach 150% it then starts to shrink by -=10 until it gets to 100%
3) When it does get to 100% it goes and plays a particular label inside this MC's time line.
I need this funtion to be reusable, so that several MC's can call it on the timeline.
I tried with the following similar code:
limitX=this._xscale;
limitY=this._yscale;
//define my variables
[Code].....
Don't worry about the synthax of gotoandplay is just to illustrate, basically this does nothing and I have been told that is is because I redefine limitX everytime I call the function, but how do you get around this?

Basically, my problem is that i've got 15 buttons labeled Channel 1 to Channel 15, but when the page first loads up, it skips down showing the very last button at the bottom, rather than the very first button at the top. The top button is off the screen.
got stuck trying to design an automatic vertical text scroller. Here is what I set out to do:
- Have a news ticker like box through which text will be vertically scrolling.
- The textual content will come from an external text file.
- The text in the external file will also have click-able html links.
- When the mouse enters the content area, the scrolling would stop.
- If any link is visible in the content area at that time, the user will be able to click on it.
- When the mouse leaves the content area, the scrolling would continue.
Basically, it's an html marquee which you see in so many pages these days.
The following was my approach to solving the problem. Got very close and then got stuck
- I created a Dynamic Textbox and have it load from the external file. The dynamic textbox has multiline and autoSize set to true. So the size of it grows depending on the content from the external file.
- Next, converted the "textbox with external loading" into a movie clip and named it content_mc.
- Created a rounded rectangle (my viewing area) and converted that to a movie clip called mask_mc.
- On the stage, the content_mc is in one layer (content) and the mask_mc is in another layer (mask).
- Added another layer (action) and on the first frame of the main timeline, I entered the Action Script to set the mask_mc as the mask for content_mc.
- Also in this AS, I align the content_mc top with the mask_mc top so that the content is visible at the start.Then in the content layer, I inserted a movie clip "controller". This clip has two frames and all it does is it moves the _root.content_mc up by a fixed unit until the bottom of content_mc is over the mask_mc top. At that point, it sets the top of the content_mc back to the top of mask_mc.
Since I have little to no flash training, you can understand my excitement when the above steps worked and I got a fairly smooth scrolling text fitted in my viwing window. I could also click on all the links in my text. Yayyy!Then I took on the task of making the scroll stop and resume on mouse enter and leave event. What I did was:
- In the action script on the action layer, I simply defined two content_mc.onRollOver and content_mc.onRollOut functions. In the first I stop the controller movie clip and in the second, I play the controller movie clip.
The above strategy also worked as I wanted but it created a new problem! Whenever the mouse enters the mask area, the mouse pointer turns into a clicking hand cursor (the one you use to click on links); and it doesn't allow me to click on any of the html links anymore! It's almost as if the content_mc movie clip has turned into a button!
Regardless to say, this is unacceptable in my case if I cannot click on the html links in the original text content. I have googled quite a bit and must admit that I haven't had much luck (why else would I be posting here and other places?). I desperately need someone's assistance with solving this. Some of the approaches I have seen on google wouldn't work for me. For example, having invisible buttons for the html links. Of course that wouldn't work since my text is coming from an external text file over which I have no control.
I know that this has almost certainly been asked before, I know because every quarter at least one of my students brings in this site.[URL] My question is how I would go about making a parallax type scroller like this that works vertically and horizontally from the mouse position, and works with many more levels than this (like 20+ levels).
View 2 Repliesgetting a vertical and horizontal thumbnail scroller to work at the same time, based off of the xml photo gallery tutorial here on kirupa. I'm using FMX04 and I can get one or the other to work but not at the same time. Once I can get them both to work at the same time I would like to make the vertical set load a different set up thumbnails,I know it will involve editting the xml and hence adding to the xml loading into flash but I'm unclear on that also... on another note, is there an easy way to make the image holder resize to the image, so as to accommodate both vertical and horizontal images without skewing them?
Here's my code (as) so far...

I'm creating a vertical news scroller, that will eventually load in from an external text file and then just scroll the text in a movie clip vertically. I have this working but I have a couple of questions.
1. As the text reaches the end of the scroll I want it to start to fade out, I've added a IF statement to do this but it doesn't seem to fire. Why is this?
2. Even though I don't have any easing the scroll seems to slow down as its nearing the end of the animation, do you know why this is happening?
Code:
import gs.TweenLite;
import gs.easing.*;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(0,1);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, scrollNow);
myTimer.start();

Load external swfs and play all step by step but loop

I've tried for hours and days to make my vertical text content scroller working in a flash fake 3d environment with rotationX / Y. But because of vector>bitmap conversion when 3d roationing, the scroller fails to works. I know the stratDrag method fails to work in a 3d environment. other than using PV3D or so ? cause I don't know how to work with PV3D, it's just tooooo complicated to get it for me.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get an object to increase in size the lower it goes down the stage, and decrease in size the high it moves up the stage.
It only needs to increase or decrease by a small amount. Basically, it's for a game character. To ad realism to his movements, it would be nice to have this feature.
This is where i'm up to so far:
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
[code]....
I think I need something like:
if (object moves up)
decrease
else if (object moves down)
increase

4. was able to run test and preview successfully
Now begun some problems, sometimes I could see the movie on the web, sometimes included the skin, sometimes without the skin.
5. I saved fla to the folder as test.fla
6. I changed contentPath to my web [URL]
7. I pressed publishe video
8. I found test.swf and test.html in my folder
9. In test.html I removed everything but just leave <object>.......</object>
10. I transfered the three files swf flv html to the web folder
I tried different ways.Never I could see playback Skin, I could see it only after I moved the OverAll.swf also to the web folder. But why I need this?
