Any Tutorials For This Type Of Interface?
I am curious if anyone has seen a tutorial showing how to do something like what is seen on Canon's product comparison page.

http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...categoryid=113

Click three boxes and hit the "Compare Now" button. I am interested in the flash interface of the page that pops up, where you can drag pictures into the matrix and switch which products are being compared.

I would like to know how people think two things are done:

1. Drag the picture onto another picture and have it load that external data. Hit test?

2. How the Matrix resizes depending on the information that is loaded into it.

If anyone has seen a tutorial explaining #2 I would be interested in hearing about it.

Thanks

So far this is the tutorial I am using : http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/In...-815/index.php

I have problems like unpredictable movements. sometimes the scrolling stops and jumps. And I have difficulty adjusting the area where the mouse interacts with the motion. I don't like this tutorial!! can anyone suggest a better more practical and functional scrolling menu tutorial. thanks

Building A Drop Down Menu Like This (tutorials, Help, Examples)
Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has any working drop menus like this one out there they could kindly share so I can deconstruct.

http://www.simonds.com.au/?f=1

I am able to replicate the effect using tweens and basic AS but the process I have used involves hitareas being place all around the outside of the menus to get them to slide back in when I rolloff the menu (and onto the hit areas). They thing works but is quite ugly and makes the space unneath these hit areas comprimised.

Hopefully someone has a bit more of an intelligent design using more AS without losing the smoothness of the animation I could take a look at.

If anyone could assist would be great

This Menu Was Once Popular; No Tutorials Left In Existence?

Old tutorials are fine because I haven't been able to finish my intro to AS 3.0 yet.

Help With A Type Of Scrolling Menu
I'm trying to make a Flash scrolling menu that I can't seem to find a tutorial for as an example for what I am trying to do...

I attached a JPEG from a photoshop document of how the company i'm making this for wants it to look...

The designer of the company is my friend, and I told him I'd try my best to try and make it... but he really wants this menu to be exactly like this... so i need some help

Anyways...

If you look at the Picture... you see a bunch of little circles on the left... and a big picture on the right. the right circle is where pictures are going to load... and the left circles are the buttons that will load the various pictures.

Each button is for a different company. I.E. Warrior Lacross, XM Radio, Sirius Radio, Ford... etc. Obviously when you click the Warrior Lacrosse button, the Warrior Lacross Picture loads into the Right circle.

Well here's the thig I cant figure out. The company wants this menu to kinda be infinite... so when you hover the mouse over the top and bottom circles which are more than half way off the stage, the whole menu will scroll down...

In addition to that... they want the circles to start off about half the size you see in the picture... and when you scroll over them... they grow bigger...

I think this menu would be a really cool tutorial... but I can't seem to find anything that resembles it. The only thing I found that is somewhat like it is this...

http://www.actionscripts.org/tutoria...mi/index.shtml

However, That menu doesnt scroll... but it is the effect they want with the growing and shrinking of the buttons...

If ANYONE out there knows of what i'm talking about... and knows of a tutuorial for it... I would greatly appreciate pointing me in the right direction... If I find a good enough tutorial, I've notices I can pretty much figure out anything in flash after about a week of trying.

Some people on Flashkit are nice enough to sometimes make examples for me... but I'd rather have a tutorial... cause most of the times I can't figure out all the person did when they just send me the .FLA

Anyways.. thanks for any help

What Type Of Menu Effect Is This?
where can i find actionscript code on how to create one of those menus that automatically pan the menu selections/buttons left and right based on what direction you point your mouse? kinda like a navigation menu but when you hover your mouse over the left side, all the images/buttons scroll to the left and vice versa?

does this make sense? they have it on a lotta websites out there....is there a tutorial on how to create this effect?

Help Recreating A Type Of Menu.
I don't mean to leech, but I feel this is something really cool that I'd like to learn how to recreate to perhaps modify for my own uses.

http://www.muse.mu/index.php

Yes, this is Muse's website. After you choose to enter the website, with the flash loaded, there is a type of... Rotating menu. I can imagine doing it with buttons and on(rollOver) effects to trigger rotations, but the creator appears to have done it without that.

Anyone have a clue as to what the script could be behind it?

Type Of Menu To Use In This Situation?
I'm making a game in flash at the moment, you can view it here - http://gorounreal.com/pixelcity.htm.

At the moment the items in the menu are manually placed into the flash. Someone told me I should try to make it so people can submit new items to a database. Well that's all good and i'd be able to do that but the problem is the menu since like I said it's manually done.

What I was wondering was what would be the best way to have a menu in this that would work well with a database. e.g. would a listbox of sorts work well?

Thanks

Tenderfoot To Flash - Using Popup Menu (enjoyed Tutorials)
I I am a newbie to Flash,
I have been using Lynda.com tutorials. At the moment I have just finished CD TWo
Chapter 15 - ActionScripting Basics

I really enjoyed working through the examples especially the one on Creating a Popup menu (aka drop down menu)
For those people who are not familiar with this tutorial - it shows you how to create a simple poup menu.
Firstly it shows you how to create a button, using the button they then show you to convert this into a movie clip
Inside the movie clip they show you how to create a popup menu.fla

I was wondering does anybody know where I can have access to reusable ".fla" popup menu(s) using the familiar theme mentioned.
Hopefully by examining other popup menus I can learn from this. Thank you in advance.

PS. (I am a greenhorn to Flash)

Barney Type Menu Position.
Im using a horizontally scrolling barney style menu. The stickman tutorial i used aligns the image at 0. or the top left of the movie. what parts of the code do i need to fiddle with and how to get this to scroll across a different area... heres the snippets of code...

the action...

in_menu = 1;
Speed_menu = 4;
Current_menu = 1;
Current_position = 0;
menu_height = 183;
menu_number = 6;
menu_totalheight = menu_height*menu_number;
setProperty("/menu_1", _x, 0);
setProperty("/menu_1", _y, 0);
tolerance = 1;
counter = 1;

the control...

if (/:menu_rollback eq 1) {
if (Number(/:menu_difference)<Number(/:tolerance) and Number(/:menu_difference)>Number((0-/:tolerance))) {
/:menu_rollback = 0;
/:current_position = (/:destination_menu-1)*/:menu_height;
counter = 1;
while (Number(counter)<=Number(/:menu_number)) {
setProperty("/menu_" add counter, _y, Number((0-/:current_position))+Number(((counter-1)*/:menu_height)));
setProperty("/menu_" add counter, _x, 0);
counter = Number(counter)+1;
}
/:current_menu = /:destination_menu;
} else {
/:current_position = /:current_position-(/:menu_difference/(/:speed_menu));
counter = 1;
while (Number(counter)<=Number(/:menu_number)) {
setProperty("/menu_" add counter, _y, Number((0-/:current_position))+Number(((counter-1)*/:menu_height)));
setProperty("/menu_" add counter, _x, 0);
counter = Number(counter)+1;
}
}
/:menu_difference = /:menu_difference-(/:menu_difference/(/:speed_menu));
}


thank you oh so very much.....

Help With Drop Down Menu Type Things
I have created this initial drop down menu here:

http://www.adruc.com/board2.htm

If you mouse over the different words (Funny Stuff, Sports, Other) a drop down menu appears. The problem I'm having is that if you initialize the drop down, move the mouse off the hit area, then move the mouse back to the menu, the animation flashes on and off.

I think it happens because of the way it's coded (special thanks to alon_tz for the idea found in this thread:

code: onClipEvent (load) {
previouslyOver = false;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
currentlyOver = this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true);
// if there is a change, go to another frame
if (!previouslyOver and currentlyOver) {
previouslyOver = true;
this.gotoAndPlay("on");
} else if (previouslyOver and !currentlyOver) {
previouslyOver = false;
this.gotoAndPlay("out");
}
}

I think what's happening is that there's a miniscule lag time between the registering of going "out" and when the movie jumps to the out frame and then all of a suddend, it registers ad "in" so it jumps to in, etc.

So, does anybody have any idea how to work around this and am I right about why it happens?

Thanks in advance.

Infinite Menu Type Thing
I've got the following as:
ActionScript Code:
#include "lmc_tween_as1.as"stop();_global.depthCounter = 0;var fadeAmount = 30;var images = new Array();images[0] = "image1_small.jpg";images[1] = "image2_small.jpg";images[2] = "image3_small.jpg";images[3] = "image4_small.jpg";images[4] = "image5_small.jpg";images[5] = "image1_small.jpg";images[6] = "image2_small.jpg";images[7] = "image3_small.jpg";images[8] = "image4_small.jpg";images[9] = "image5_small.jpg";images[10] = "image1_small.jpg";images[11] = "image2_small.jpg";images[12] = "image3_small.jpg";images[13] = "image4_small.jpg";images[14] = "image5_small.jpg";images[15] = "image1_small.jpg";images[16] = "image1_small.jpg";function init() {    holder_mc.loadMovie(images[0]);    var thumbz = createEmptyMovieClip("thumbz_mc", 1);    thumbz._y = film_mc._y + 11;    thumbz._x = film_mc._x;    for(var i = 0; i < images.length; i++) {        var curThumb = thumbz.attachMovie("thumbnail_mc", "thumb" + i, 100 + i);        curThumb._x = 6 + i * (curThumb._width);        curThumb.thumbContainer_mc.loadMovie(images[i]);        curThumb.iValue = i;        curThumb.onRollOver = function() {            this._parent._parent.film_mc.alphaTo(100, 1, "easeOutQuad");            this._parent.alphaTo(100, 1, "easeOutQuad");        };        curThumb.onRollOut = function() {            this._parent._parent.film_mc.alphaTo(fadeAmount, 1, "easeOutQuad");            this._parent.alphaTo(fadeAmount, 1, "easeOutQuad");        };        curThumb.onRelease = function() {            this._parent._parent.holder_mc.loadMovie(images[this.iValue]);        }    }}    function nextDepth() {    _global.depthCounter++;    return _global.depthCounter;}film_mc.onRollOver = function() {    this.alphaTo(100, 1, "easeOutQuad");};film_mc.onRollOut = function() {    this.alphaTo(fadeAmount, 1, "easeOutQuad");};/*film_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {    if(_root._ymouse > Stage.height - 100) {        this._x += ((Stage.width / 2) - _root._xmouse) / 20;        if(this._x >= 0) this._x = 0;        if(this._x <= Stage.width - this._width)this._x = Stage.width - this._width;        this._parent.thumbz_mc._x = this._x;    }};*/film_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {    if(_root._ymouse > _root.boundry._height - 100) {        this._x += ((_root.boundry._width / 2) - _root._xmouse) / 20;        if(this._x >= 0) this._x = 0;        if(this._x <= boundry._width - this._width)this._x = boundry._width - this._width;        this._parent.thumbz_mc._x = this._x;    }};init();

It basically is loading external jpg's into the film_mc (which is basically like an infinite menu). When you click on one of the thumbs it loads the pic into the holder_mc.

The problem is the way the menu works when mousing around. It works fine if you uncomment the above code and comment out the other onEnterFrame when the movie stage size is set to 375x200. In the above code I am trying to use this in a larger stage size so I tried to designate a movieclip as the "stage size" named boundry.
Hopefully someone can figure this out by checking out the script, but i can figure out a way to get you fla if you'd like.
Thanks to anyone willing to help!

Pool-table Type Menu
Hello,
I am a web designer but not a Flash guru. I work at a college student union and for their game center they want a menu set up like a pool table, where when you click on the ball (link) the poolstick hits the ball in the hole.
Setting the pool stick to follow the mouse doesn't work because the stick is stuck at one angle.
I tried putting the stick and a ball on one layer so that when I made them into a button, on mouse over the stick picks up and points at the ball and then when you click it the ball rolls in the hole. What about the other layers though? I can't put stick + ball on each button because the sticks from the other layers will still be sitting at the bottom.

Any advice on how I can make this menu work?

Examples Of Mac Dock Type Menu
Hi Guys,

I'm looking for some examples of a menu that uses a similar approach to the Mac Dock, whereby it magnifies an element (be it and icon or text) when the mouse is rolled over - I am sure that you are familiar with this effect.

The examples can be on existing websites or even tutorials, I simply want to demonstrate the idea to somebody who doesn't have a Mac

Thanks for your help

Carousel-Type Menu Question
Hi, everyone -

I've just found this site, and its been a incredible resource. I've already taken many of the tutorials, and found a lot of stuff I needed to learn how to do!

I need to make a menu similar to how Apple's Ipod menu works - where the thumbnails appear "turned and stacked" to the left and right until you pull one out in the middle, at which time it turns to the front and shows its full view. I would think its something similar to the carousel or scrolling thumbnails tutorial?? Does anyone know where there is information on something like this?

Thanks so much!
