HTML Link To A Flash Hotspot?
Afternoon Everyone,

I'm constructing an interactive Map for our offices. I 2 PDF's of all of ours offices, about 200 in total, and when someone does an employee search, they get a Pop-up of the employees detail including their Office #.

What I am trying to do is link the Room # to a SWF movie that will automatically load the area (hotspot) and point out the Room they need to find.

I have my scenes (2 Floors) and MC's constructed, but I am having a hard time find the proper way to Link to the SWF Hotspot from an HTML file.

Any help is appreciated!
TIA!

Flash Learning Interactions Hotspot Problem
Hi

I m working on flash quiz based flash learning interactions. I used flash quiz template to build it i stripped down all the interactions but hotspot. And allowed users to get the right answer with 2 tries. The problem is flash gets the first try always wrong after a reset than accepts the right answer (which is the intended one in component inspector) You can dowload the fla file from the url (www.shaytac.net/down/hotspot.fla) i would appreciate any feedback on it.

cheers

HotSpot. Can U Help Me Out?
Hello,

i know this is a flash board but i am just finishing my web site and have a problem in my HTML entry page.

My entry page has a background image. I want to use parts of that image as hotspots, as links, u see?

The problem is that the parts of that image that are links are not squares or rectangles...are more something as an arrow.

Is it possible to create hotspots or links from images which are not rectangle or squares? U see what i am trying to do?

I have Macromedia Fireworks MX, Dreamweaver MX and Adobe Photoshop.

Can u give me any sugestions...the entry page is the only thing i need to finish this.

Thanks,
Miguel

Hotspot URL ?
I've created a flsh file with a couple of invisible hotspots converted to buttons on some of the images in my movie. How do I put a URL link on those hotspots so it opens another page of the website in the same window ?

I've tried using the usual coding in the actionscripts & behaviours

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

Hotspot?
I need to define an area on screen to be interactive (clickable). This area should work just like a button but it shouldn't be a visible thing, just a defined area. Is this possible?

Creating A Hotspot
I want to make some buttons and work with their mouseover and mouseclick behaviors. Where would I start to work with something like this?

Hotspot Quiz
My movie includes a quiz with several hotspot questions. I'm using the "learning.fla" template. Within this movie, the learner must click "check answer" to see if they selected the correct hotspot. I want to simply have the user click a spot and automatically get the "correct" / "incorrect" feedback. Editing the actionscript within the Lglobalclass component is way out of my ability. Can I get some help with this?

Hotspot Links Help
Hey,
I have just started flash today!
I have made my Flash Intro but I am having problems.
I want, when the button is clicked, for flash to take me to my webpages homepage.
The thing is I don't want to use the URL as in http://www.url.com. As I haven't bought a domain yet.

I use dreamweaver and so I have a defined site. All my links within the site are like this ...home.htm, ...about.htm as I have a root folder.

I want to do the same for flash. i want it to go to my homepage folder. I did it before when I was at a mates house messing around with his software but I can't remember how
I hope this make sense!

My code is like this

on (press) {
getURL("C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\Websites\MySite/home.htm");
}

That's grand and all cause it take me to the page I want, my only problem is that when its in my root folder and on the net I don't think it will work as it won't be able to find that path for others

Again I hope you understand where I am coming from

Please any help will be good

Almost There With URL Clickable Hotspot
Hi there,

Flash CS3

I have made a very simple text animation. The whole flash movie has an
invinsible button which must take a visitor to a URL when clicked.

I have managed to do this:
www.sincro.co.za (the top animation)

But, I don;t think it is correct. When typing the code in the
actionscript, I got an error message that the script can only work with
clickable actions.
I have:
on(RELEASE) {

I have gone through the whole of Google (it feels like that) and could
not really find something that can help me to have this animation with a
clickable hotspot that takes me to a URL.

Can someone please help?
regards,
Deon

Hotspot For Animation
Hey all,

How do you make hotspots work for graphics not buttons? Because I want to have a square and once you reach a certain part on the page it'll make a noise and also change into a circle.

I've been seaching over the net but only so far found about hotspots for buttons and i ready knew about them.

Thanks

How To Do A Hotspot As In DW 8/rollovers?
In Flash 8 Professional, can I draw with a pen tool around specific regions in a jpg file and make it them a rollover? In Dreamweaver 8 you just do this using hot spots and I want to do it in Flash instead...see http://www.enhancedwireless.net/indexlayers.html for example of what I want to do...rollover the various wireless devices in the banner area.

I'm hoping you can do this as in DW 8 and not have to make each wireless device a png file, bring it in, and then make it a button. I need to make a tight outline around each area I want.

Thanks

PLEASE HELP HOTSPOT AND CUEPOINTS.
Hi i was reading your "Modifications to Lee's Netstream Video Player" Post

It is very Helpful. I need to ask you For help with my current project i am relatively A noob but i have learned alot from gotoandlearn.com.

My question is if i can create a hot spot in the video played in the "Netstream Video Player" for example.

Video1 plays and after 20secs a PIP icon appears, already previously edited into the Video1.avi that i converted to Video1.flv, when this "icon" appears i want the user to click on the icon in order to Play a new Video "video2",video2 is a specific "url" to "icon1".

After "Video2" finishes playing I want to have the user choose to play "Video2" again or Continue Playing "Video1" from its previous state i.e.(20secs in to video).

Also I will have about 10 "icons" that appear throughout "Video1",each icon has a unique "Url". And the "Icon/Hotspot" can not cover the "PIP icon" In "Video1" but will just serve the purpose of letting the user click over that area, as if clicking directly on the video. These Icons should expire as the "PIP icon" disappears.

I know that contining to play a video1 from previous state is a value assigned when user click icon but i dont know how to create it.

Please Help I would Appreaciate any Feedback

I Have A Dream (ok Well Maybe A Map) Hotspot Question(s)
I have a map that shows some settlements from the early 1800's and the map progress' over time (the amount of settlers increase).

What I want to create is this. A image of the map and when the mouse scrolls over a portion of the map, the statistics of the map pop up(fade in/delay).

Now I know in non-practice (theory from what I tested) I could create a horizontal (alt windows in addition to the map) that displays a new image with the text/stats in a window correct? But what about it I wanted the image to appear/fade in on the screen and dissolve after the mouse moves away?

Best way to accomplis this??

thanks

Hotspot Quiz Template
Hi,

I used the quiz template to create hotspot questions in flashMX2004.
I copied the hotspot-keyframe and changes the component inspector settings.
The strange thing is that when I test the movie, only the first question is correct every time (no matter which question comes first in case of randomizing the questions..)

does anyboy have any idea whats going on?

thanks

Zoomify Hotspot Question
I am using Flash MX 2004 and I am pretty new to Flash. I am building an app that will allow the user to zoom, pan, print a map that is stored on the server. I am using Zoomify for Flash v3.0 (www.zoomify.com). I love the product but I want to do more, but I'm having trouble starting.

My map works great and I've got everything done. However, after looking at the map on Disney's site (http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw...displayZoomify and click on Magic Kingdom) I want similar functionality with the yellow circles and the rollOver text tips and actions.

Can anyone give me a clue how they might have done this with Zoomify?? Thanks!!

Hotspot Coordinates In Zoomify
Hi All, my 1st thread woo hoo ! i'm a Flash virgin so be gentle me.

i am using Zoomify for Flash to pan & zoom maps.

the Zoomify-ed map gets a 0,0 in the centre, and when i place hotspot objects on the map, i do this by passing an X & Y coordinate from an XML file. So far this is done by trial and error, by entering a coordinate i think is nearly there, and then fine tuning it until i get the location on the map that i want. but this sucks.

i want to be able to display the X & Y coordinate of the mouse as i move around the map, but what i'm getting is the X & Y of the mouse in the flash window & every time i pan or zoom a new 0,0 in the centre of the window is created.

See this link

if you have mastered this yourself or can point me in the right direction, your help will be appreciated, thanks.

Activate A Hotspot By Default
I've got a flash animation with an image on the left which has 4 hotspots. When the mouse rolls over a hotspot it displays a picture on the right. No problems.

But, when the movie first loads I'd like it to appear as though one of the hotspots has been rolled over (showing the image on the right).

I'm guessing this is pretty easy, but I don't know how to do it!

Movieclip Disappears From Hotspot
Hello all,

I'm sure this is a relatively simple thing to do but I can't seem to get it to work. Here's the deal:

I have 6 layers which have different movieclips on them. Each movieclip is named uniquenameClip. Each movieclip can be duplicated by dragging and dropping onto a hotspot. The Duplicate MovieClip behavior was used to do this.

Then I have 6 buttons that correspond to each of the layers.

The idea is that when you click on one of the buttons, all the movieclips on the corresponding layer appear, while all the others disappear. I'm am using the following code on the first frame of each of my markers:


Code:
_root.bigtimeClip._visible = false;
_root.badClip._visible = true;

and so on...

This works great as long as I do not create a duplicate. If I create a duplicate and try to switch to another set of movieclips, the FIRST DUPLICATE disappears instead of the original movieclip with the correct instance name.

I used the Duplicate MovieClip behavior to duplicate them so it's not naming the duplicates the same as the the original. This is how it is naming the duplicates:

Code:
var newname = "bad_"+newdepth;
var prevname = "bad_"+(newdepth-1);


This seems like it is a naming problem but I can't figure out where to change my code.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Very Easy Question How To Put Hotspot? :S
hi guys, how to put the blue hotspot as shown in photo? thank you in advance

Roll Over Hotspot To Pop Up Button
I have a flash map of 1900. It has numbers on the image. I drew hotspot buttons on each number. On mouseover, I want an icon to appear that specifies the industry in that location. A click on the icon opens a popup window. My problem is that I have made the icons all invisible on load using the following code:
this.iconBrewery_btn._visible = false;
this.iconQuarry_btn._visible = false;
etc, I want a mouse over to make the icon visible again. Roll off and the icon disappears. Click on the icon and the popup appears. I can do the popup part, but I can't figure out the rollover action script. I sure would appreciate some tips. Theoretically, this should be a really easy thing to do! I wrote the whole thing in HTML but I don't really like how it gets stuck so I thought I would write it over again in Flash. My HTML version is at http://cnyhistory.org/maps/1900.html but I thought a Flash version would be better. I attach the code I tried to use. The result is that the icon flashes rapidly. Very distracting. I also tried imbedding the icon in the Over state of my button and it also flashed on and off repeatedly. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Karen







Attach Code

//Make Lake icon invisible at Load
this.OnonLake1_btn._visible = false;
//make visible on rollover
hotspot2.onRollOver = function() {
OnonLake1_btn._visible=true
}
//Make invisible on rolloff
{
OnonLake1_btn._visible=false
}
//Make click go to info window
this.OnonLake1_btn.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(2);
};
// Return to frame 1 - Close Button
CloseOnonLake.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(1);
};

Draggable Object Hotspot
Hi there

I'm having a empty loader fetching an outside swf, and I want to be able to drag it, so far i can make it, but I am able to drag this window clicking in any point of it, and I want to be able to do it if I drag it only from a top bar, as in Microsoft Windows (you can only drag a window if you drag it from the titlebar).

How can I define which area of the swf will trigger the drag function?

thanks a lot

Panorama Papervision With Hotspot
Hi Guys,

I'm just wondering if you could help me out. I'm new to papervision3d and having a hard time placing a hotspot in my panorama. I was able to make the panorama work but then I look fo tutorials and forums and find no luck of finding a tutorial in placing hotspots in panorama. Even the panorama tutorial from the blitz agency website seems confusing.

I'm really hoping that you could help me with the source code for the hotspots.

Thanks and your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hotspot Indicator Hand Stays On
This happens in Mozilla (1.2.1 and now 1.3) and Safari: the arrow cursor turns into the hand "hotspot indicator" when over a button, and then the cursor remains a hand even after the user has rolled off the button. The only way to get the arrow cursor back is to go outside the flash movie altogether. This only happens when I'm viewing the .swf embedded in an html file, and never when I'm just viewing the raw .swf.

I'm thought somebody else must've seen this. I didn't find anything in MM's Tech Notes.

Hotspot And Link On Separate Layers
I have a flash move in creation that funcions as a menu of sorts. Basically, it has 3 main areas, and when the user mouses over each one, 2 sub choices scroll in as images.

Here's the issue:

When the sub choices slide in, they both need to be linked to a seperate URL. On mouse out, the frame head is set to go to the next frame which basically plays the previous frames in reverse.

The issue is that the subchoices (both set as seperate symbols) appear one above the other (x,y). So, if the user rolls out of the subchoice on the bottom, the frame head advances to the next frame. This can not be because there is still a choice above it. The play head would need to stop until the user roll out of the whole area.

To correct this I tried to create a hotspot symbol on a layer on top of my choices, that specified roll out properties.

It's a complicated problem, and there are a few ways I could get around this by changing my design, but I have already changed my original design enough and want to see if there is a route to take with action script or some other feature I am not aware of.

Make Me Smart; 'hotspot' Navigation Help (like Vw)
Hi.

I'm trying to wrap my brain around a workflow to build a hotspot menu almost identical to a VW product page (here): http://www.vw.com/golf/features_perf.html

I want the text menu and the hotspot menu to work in conjunction, but also for a mc to load when the mouse is clicked. I think that's how they set their's up, rather than loading external swf's. All three - text menu, physical hotspot, and loaded mc - also work together.

Anybody know any tutorials or suggestions on how to get started? I already have all the graphics in place, but I'm having a hard time starting the AS.

My brain hurts.

Grayscale Image As Mask For Hotspot Button
Hi,

I've been struggling with this for a couple of days now.
The situation is as follows:
I'm loading 3 external images:
- up
- over
- mask
the up and over images are just two images of a scene.
the mask is a grayscale image that is supposed to mask out a part of the original image, so only the white area acts as button (hotspot).

The problem I'm running into is that I can't set just the white part of the mask image to be a button.

I've already tried turning everything but white into alpha, so the mask only has alpha and a white 'hotspot' area, but mouseOver events still fire on the alpha area. I've tried masking.
Several combinations of blendMode, buttonMode, Mask, casheAsBitmap, mouseEnabled, mouseChilderen
But nothing seems to work...

To sum it all up. I only want the mouseOver event to fire on white pixels of my image, not on the transparent ones...

Here's some code:

Button As A Hide/show Hotspot Operation
I am having problems getting the Show/Hide Hotspot button to act as a on/off button. I can get them to turn on, but once turned on I can not get the button to work in reverse (hiding the hotspot). Can anyone help me out???

I can email the fla to anyone that needs to see it.

Animated Button HOTSPOT / HIT AREA Way Too Large SOLVED
So, I'm making an animated button using an MC and actionscript, as in Lee's tutorial.

The problem I came across is that the entire MC is active. I only want a small area of it to be "active" so that when you rollover that one spot, the rest will animate and grow larger.

How do I do this?

SOLVED:

1. create a separate invisible MC (alpha 0%) of the hit area you would like and give it an instance name of "buttonHitArea" (for example)

2. create the button animation mc, give it an instance name of "button" and assign it's hit area to the mc "buttonHitArea" like so:
Code:

button.hitArea = buttonHitArea;

Rest of animated button function is the same as usual:
Code:

button.onRollOver = over;
button.onRollOut = out;

function over() {
   this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
function out() {
   this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}

Lingering "ghost" Hotspot
I've got a movieclip with rollOver and rollOut code on it (it's acting as a button). In a nutshell, the rollOver makes the graphic wider, and the rollOut reduces it back.

All the animation is fine. The problem lies in the hotspot. The first time you rollover the button, everything works just fine. The hotspot extends with the stretching of the graphic, so you can still move the mouse along the stretched graphic without it shrinking again.

After rolling off the graphic and letting it shrink, though, there is a "ghost" of the stretched hotspot. So even though the graphic is back to being a little square, there is a long rectangle of hotspot area that activates the animation again.

Anybody ever had a problem like this with dynamic hotspots? Thanks for any help.

RollOver On A Hotspot In A Movie Within A Movie
Hi,
this is my first time here. I'm on my fourth week using flash. . everyone that normally helps me are at Flash in a Can! I would really appreciate help with this.

I'm making an interactive timeline of Apple computers. In the main page I have a
movie clip (allcomputers_mc) with controls to start and top and etc. Within that movie clip is another movie clip (applejpg_mc) with a mask over it. The mask is there because evolutionjpg_mc is really a HUGE picture with all of the apple computers in 6 rows, ten to a row.
In applejpg_mc I have placed a hotspot btn over each computer and named it according to the year (i.e. 1976_btn).
Separately i have a corresponding movie of text for each computer (i.e. 1976Text_mc).

What I want to happen is: while the movie is playing for the user to roll over a computer and have the text movie about that computer pop up on the main page.


This is the code I tried to accomplish this:
code: allcomputers_mc.applejpg_mc.1976_mc.onRollOver = function(){
1976text_mc.play();
}

I realize there would be more coding for the rollout and such. . . but I'm doing something really wrong here, I just don't know what. I would appreciate help, knowing that this may be a really stupid question (really sorry)

Flash Menu With Multiple HTML Pages - How To Pass Variable To Menu On Refresh?
please note this topic is also posted at AS under this title:
Flash Menu 4 HTML pages - pass variables on page refresh
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

So the subject is a hint as to how hard it is to search on this simple idea.

Will be very greatful for some help today!


PROBLEM DETAILS:
I am building a swf menu for an HTML site. It has the following buttons:

SectionA

SectionB

SectionC

What I want to do is modify the text when the HTML page for the correspoding section is loaded. So, if I click on "SectionB", SectionB.html loads. Now I want that button "SectionB" in the swf to have a background glow.

Of course the catch is, that each time a new HTML page loads, it reloads the swf menu (No Frames please!). So, naturally I know I can just tell the swf menu to go to a certain place in the timeline where there is the glow graphic behind "SectionB". But the swf needs a variable saying it is on a Section B HTML page. (of course I could build a seperate swf for each section - but that seems stupid.)

THUS....


MY QUESTION:
How do I pass a variable from a swf on one HTML page (that is being replaced by a new HTML page!), to a swf on a new HTML page.

Can I do this with a GET/POST or something?

Thanks!

Highlighting Menu Option On Flash Menu In HTML Page
Hi Folks,

I have created a Flash menu to work with an HTML based site (the menu is the object in all the pages), but I would like the menu option to stay highlighted when clicked. I've created a series of buttons that highlight when they are scrolled over, but when they are clicked, the button returns to its normal state, as it should. I did come up with a not-so-nice solution, by loading a new movie whenever the user clicks on the option, and the new movie has the menu selection highlighted. Is there a way for the user to click on the menu option and have it stay highlighted until a new menu selection is clicked without having to create mutliple movies?

Flash Sliding Menu / Horizontal Dynamic Picture Menu
Hello,

I am quite fascinated by the effect used to scroll a variety of pictures left and right with the ability to halt on a particular picture to click and navigate to another area of a site. Could anyone point me to a tutorial on how this is done? An good example of the effect may be seen on this site:
