Button Fails In Test Mode
My buttons are simple rollovers. They seem to work fine on the stage and the "goTo" actions also work on the stage when the buttons are enabled, however when the movie is tested the buttons are not recognized by the cursor nor do they execute their goTo actions?
I know it must be something simple and I'm going nuts trying to find it.
Could it be there is no "hit" area recognized since they are text only? but they are outlined(boxed) in blue on the stage and rollover fine?
This is the Output window in Test Mode:
Level #0: Frame=50
Button: Target="_level0.goto45"
Shape:
Movie Clip: Frame=14 Target="_level0.instance18"
Text: Value = "<"
Text: Value = "<"
Button: Target="_level0.goto58"
Movie Clip: Frame=0 Target="_level0.goto58.instance19"
Text: Value = "A"
Text:
Button: Target="_level0.goto64"
Movie Clip: Frame=0 Target="_level0.goto64.instance20"
Text: Value = "P"
Text:
Button: Target="_level0.goto70"
Movie Clip: Frame=0 Target="_level0.goto70.instance21"
Text: Value = "A"

Thanks for any ideas.

LoadVars Test Is Ok IE Fails
Hello,
I have a Flash movie that has a number of data entry Scenes and my idea is that as the user moves from Scene to Scene by pressing a button and I load up the properties of my LoadVars object with values from text boxes on each Scene.
Simply put:
Scene 1
======
_global.myHandler = new LoadVars();
Scene 2
======
stop();
field1.text = "goty";
myHandler.field2= "tuky";
field2.text = myHandler.field2;
Now when I play the swf in a browser, field1 contains "goty" as would be expected but field2 is empty. When I test using the Flash Test Movie function field1 and field2 both contain the values as expected.
Can anyone explain this?
Thanks
Roland

Exported Swf Not Same As In Test-movie Mode In Flash
Hi ,
I am not an expert flash user but have been making Flash movies and exporting them and placing them in Dreamweaver html pages, and previewing them succesfully for a long time with no problems.
Today i thought it was time to preview my latest work in Dreamweaver and not just under 'test movie' mode in Flash, just to check up on myself. For some reason, not all actions that work in test movie mode in Flash are working in preview mode in Dreamweaver.....ggrrrrrr
I wonder why this is. Could it be something to do with the fact that the actions that dont work are all related to variables. I am just getting the hang of variables and i've managed to acheive a lot of my goals, (even though im a long way off understanding how i exactly managed it) , but the thing is.....everything works perfectly and as i expected in Flash 'test movie' mode...............so shouldnt they all work then in Dreamweaver after being exported.
this is such a brick wall and i cant continue till i find out what im doing wrong, for fear of creating what i feel is a beautiful site that ends up being useless.
Thanks in advance of any ideas or solutions.
Cesca
PS. i am going to post this message under Flash discussion, i hope this isnt terrible nettiquette but im desperate......

Works In Test Mode, Player Is Blank
I've just started a project in AS3 that displays properly in Test Mode, but when the .swf is run, the window is blank.
Here's the sequence of events in the main .as file:
1. Load an external XML file.
2. Populate an array with the XML data, randomize the array, then split it in two.
3. Call a function in another .as file to draw a triangle, put the Shape into a Sprite, add the Sprite to the Stage, and put a handler on the Sprite.
4. Call a function to create a TextField instance, and add it to the Stage.
5. Do some trace stuff with the Sprite handler (MOUSE_DOWN) for checking.
Grateful for any help with this. Code below.

Flash CS3 Does Not Send Cookies In Test Movie Mode
I've posted this on the documents page but wanted post it here as well:
quote:Flash CS3 on Windows and Mac fails to pass along any cookies with requests when using "Test Movie" (LoadVars, LoadMovie, etc). Flash 8 on Windows would send cookies from Internet Explorer for a given domain.
This makes it next to impossible to debug swf files that pull dynamic data from a remote server which requires a cookie for authentication. Flashbug is the next best option but is still much less efficient than being able to run Test Movie.
Anyone else run into this problem or have a fix?

Url's Not Opening In "test Movie" Mode.
Howdy, I installed Netscape (sloppily) for testing purposes and it hijacked a lot of my file extensions. I have since removed it, but now the "test movie" mode isn't opening Url's (from a button, for example) in a default browser, or anywhere.
Anyone know where I should be looking to get that working again?

Button With Three Actions On Fails One Of Them
button with three actions on fails one of them
__________________________________________________ _
on (rollOver) {
setProperty ("_root.carfurnbusmc", _alpha, "40");
}
on (rollOut) {
setProperty ("_root.carfurnbusmc", _alpha, "100");
}
on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root.infomovieclip") {
gotoAndPlay (101);
}
}
__________________________________________________ _
A button is assigned with code above ;
it happens sometimes the condition on release fails ; that means
with only one click it does not cause the gotoAndPlay condition but
the two setProperty conditions works perfectly ;
I think too many actions on a button is not healthy ;
Is there a way to improve the code to perform safely the same actions ??

GetURL Fails On Runtime Library Button
After years of estrangement, I'm embracing Flash once again. I have a little project I'm working on, but have faltered right out of the gate...
I created a shared library with a single, relatively simple button with a clip in the over frame. For the button symbol, in Linkage I chose:
Export for runtime sharing
Export in first frame
URL: shared_lib.swf
I published the library, then closed the .fla. I created a new test.fla and chose "Open External Library" and surfed to the shared_lib.swf.
The shared library opened as it should, with my simple button available. I dragged the button to the stage of the new test.fla, then checked its properties. Sure enough, "import for runtime sharing" was selected. I tested the movie, and the button (and its rollover clip) worked perfectly.
Here's where it fails. I assigned an action to the button
on (release) {
getURL("

Button Fails To Function Yet I Recieve No Error Messages... Wtf?
So I made a puzzle game and everything works completely all the way down until you get to the simple button that is supposed to start the movie back off at frame 1. It rolls over, it clicks, the actionscript is correct, it's in the right place but when you run the game and try to click the final button to play again, nothing happens. I'm guessing it has something to do with removing a child or something. At any rate it's silly for sure. I have thought about writing code that would just reboot the whole animation on the mouse click but I wouldn't know how to do that.
The eventlistener for the play again button is on my DragGame.as class at the bottom and I commented it. If you could help me out that would be amazing! All of the files are loaded in this zip that's on my own personal server space. Thanks.

Normal Mode Vs. Expert Mode? And Actionscript In General.
If anyone can help, please do because I'm going crazy and I've been losing sleep and going through some mild depression. I know it sounds ridiculous, but actionscript is not my friend right now. I'm a designer, not a programmer and I'm just NOT getting actionscript. I've purchased 3 books on the subject and I'm still confused. One book will tell me to start off using "Normal Mode" so I can just select the actions on the left side of the "actions window". Another book will tell that I should immediately switch to "Expert Mode" because that's the best way to learn actionscript.
I'd rather learn how to type in the code instead of clicking on pre-made actions. I was wondering if you guys actually type all of your code in manually or do you occasionally use the given commands on the left side. I need to know so I can decide on how to approach actionscript.
Another thing, does anyone know a good on-line site where I could get the basics of actionscript. To be honest, what I need actionscript to do for me right now is to build a simple horizontal sliding menu. I've plenty of these on several "tutorial" sites but I want to make my own but I need the basic knowledge to do so. What should I start to learn right off the bat? Variables, properties...? Oh, and when I want to set a variable do I type var = x; or do I type Set variable = x. I'm confused. Please help.

Cant Assign Button Mode To Specific MC
I've duplicate a series of MC, but the thing is i can't traced the position of the MC. Every position of x,y,z is 0
And I can't seems to assign a buttonMode to it. It will somehow assign the buttonMode to teverything on stage rather than a specific 1.
Code:
private function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void {
xml=XML(event.target.data);
xmlList=xml.children();
var picList:XMLList=xml.pic;//list for pic
for (var i:Number=0; i < picList.length(); i++) {
cube=new Cube(materials,40,5,42,10,10,10);
cube.name="cube" + i;// set instance name
trace(cube);
cube.x=Math.random() * 960 - 460;
cube.y=Math.random() * 710 - 330;
cube.z=-40;
cube.rotationZ=Math.random() * 360;
scene.addChild(cube);
}
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,objectPress);
}

Toggle Button For Fullscreen Mode...
How do I toggle between two different buttons, one that activates fullscreen mode and another one that deactivates it?
This is all I could find:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.FullScreenEvent;
function fullScreenRedraw(event:FullScreenEvent):void
{
if (event.fullScreen)
{
// Remove input text fields.
// Add a button that closes full-screen mode.
}
else
{
// Re-add input text fields.
// Remove the button that closes full-screen mode.
}
}
mySprite.stage.addEventListener(FullScreenEvent.FULL_SCREEN, fullScreenRedraw);
A step by step tutorial would be helpful.
Thank you.

Simple Mode And Advanced Mode In Flash
This is something i've been putting up with so long now, i'm far from fluent in actionscript even the basics I tend to forget if I haven't used flash for a while but in other releases of flash their has always been too modes for actionscripting - advanced mode and simple mode. With flash mx (2004 pro) I have looked and looked and scoured google and i've never been able to find out how to change it to simple mode. I prefer being able to just choose from a dropdown or a list or whatever it is what actions I want rather than typing it all in myself. I'm even thinking of going back a few versions of flash to get this feature back. I haven't used flash for a good 7/8 months now and i'm struggling to do simple things like rollovers leading to different scenes.
this is what it looks like in previous versions of flash:
but in mx it isn't their now and i've looede through all the preferences:
cheers

Any help?

Quick Question - Button In _down Mode
I have a main menu in my website. Clicking on a mc button takes you to the portfolio section. There is a secondary menu using tab-like mc buttons. I would like to have tab#1 in the down state because that is the active subsection. I have used the code in my actions layer.
workNav1.onEnterFrame = function() {
workNav1.gotoAndStop("_down", 1);
delete this.onEnterFrame;
};
The mc button is depressed as I wanted it to be. But when I click to other tabbed subsections, tab#1 is still depressed as well. I'm not sure if I am using the wrong code (onEnterFrame) where it is or if I need some code to deselect tab#1 when other tabs are selected. If there is code I am missing or need to be corrected. Please let me know. I appreciate any help and advice.
Thank you very much,

[F8] Enabling Button Mode For Movie Clip Symbols?
Hi kids. Simple question. In flash 8, I want my movie clip to have the lil hand appear over my movie clip symbols, as they'll be my buttons (since buttons suck and dont work lol).
So, how can I make this happen? And any necessary code would be GREATLY appreciated, since I understand actionscript about as much as I understand German... maybe a bit less.
Thanks!

Is It Possible? Full Screen Button/mode For Player Even If It Is Not Embeded?
Hi everyone,
You got a great forum.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I need to get the full screen button on my flashplayer that I created in CS3 to work, but I do not know how to integrate the AC_FL_RunContent() function to enable fullscreen mode into my html page if the flash player is not embeded. Or do I need to change the actionscript in my player skin in flash?
I created the player in flash cs3 with custom skin.
The player works great.
I am swapping the swf files through a setFlash(xxx.swf) function.
Please see js function below:
Code:
function setFlash( loc )
{
var so = new SWFObject(loc, "pullContent", "425", "350", "8", "#ffffff");
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.write("player");
}
function call is through onclick event on images:
Code:
<img src=".xxx.gif" onclick="setFlash('http://xxx.swf');
Thanks in advance.

Button Test
Greetings,
Been experimenting with AS3 here. I've created a project with a
Document Class named "Main" and only a single MC in it named "Button_MC"
and linkage. Inside that Button_MC, I have a timeline with a couple of
stop()'s for some animation.
Here's my code (Main.as):
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
public class Main extends MovieClip {
// put main vars here
// Constructor
public function Main() {
// put add on stage stuff here
var button1:QuickButton = new QuickButton("Click Me");
addChild(button1);
button1.x = 100;
button1.y = 100;
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOver);
}
private function onClick(e:Event):void {
trace("hi");
}
private function onMouseOver(e:Event):void {
//button1.play();
}
}
}
Also here's my (QuickButton.as) too:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.text.*;
public class QuickButton extends MovieClip {
public function QuickButton(myText:String):void {
// put in the button
var btn:Button_MC = new Button_MC();
btn.buttonMode = true;
//btn.useHandCursor = true;
addChild(btn);
// put in the text feild
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.font = "Verdana";
format.color = 0x000000;
format.size = 12;
format.align = "center";
tf.defaultTextFormat = format;
tf.selectable = false;
tf.text = myText;
tf.width = 100;
btn.addChild(tf);
}
}
}
So my AS3 places a single instance of "button1" on my stage. How do I
access this to play it's animation?
button1.gotoAndPlay(2) will not work?
thanks

Button W/ If Test Help...
ok, i have a movie with two buttons and movie clip called square,
the script for the first button is
on (release) {
if (x!=1) {
_root.square.gotoAndPlay(2);
x=1;}
}
the script for the second button is
on (release) {
if(x=1){
_root.square.gotoAndPlay(31);
x=0;}
}
the first frame on the main timeline sets x=0.
What i want to happen is the first button starts the mask then stops and the second button closes it. The problem is that i want to hit the second button to close it only if the mask is open (after pushing the first button). I provided the .fla for more info.
Thanks always

Alright. It's been a while since i've touched flash, so here i go.
Theres one part onthe site im making where i when the mouse rolls over it, it plays a movie clip makes the "Sign up for the newsletter" box.

Button Conditional Test
I'll bet this is easy...but I've looked through the posts and couldn't quite find the right code...
2 buttons...audon audoff...on top of each other...when sound on is clicked sound off is set to invisible...and vice versa...
I'm using the buttons to control several different sounds...what I need to do is know when it's been turned off so that when a new sound is attached it won't automatically play...
bg=new Sound("sound1.swf");...etc...
button code: sound off...
on (press, release) {
bg.setVolume(0);
audoff._visible=1;
audon._visible=0;
}
and....sound on...
on (press, release) {
bg.setVolume(100);
audoff._visible=0;
audon._visible=01
this works great...both buttons are movies...
so I think I need something that tests if the sound has been turned off...so when I load a new sound....
attachMovie("sound2.swf",10);
bg=new Sound("sound2.swf");
if (audoff._visible=1) {
bg.setVolume(0);
}
or what???...do I need to create a varible to make the conditional work...?
I know that's not the right syntax...but I hope it conveys what I'm trying to accomplish...again I'm just an unworthy designer begging for help...
Thanks!

Hit Test Or Invisible Button.
Hit Test or Invisible button.
Hi all,
I'm looking for best way to hide and show the nav on my site when the mouse is within a certain area.
I want the nav to be hidden until the mouse scrolls near the nav and then I want to nav to become visible then invisible again when you scroll away. Is it possible to use the Hit Test Movie Clip method to do this or is it best to use and invisible button and then say something like
code:
invisBtn_btn.onRollover = function(){
nav_mc._visible = true
}
I can't really think how I would do this without using onEnterFrame to test if the mouse was in a certain area, but them onEnterFrame would be running all the time and that's not a good idea is it.

Just Need To Run A Test To See Which Button Was Pressed How?
I have a menu with 6 buttons. I have set up a variable called button pressed that tracks which button was pressed through numbers (if button 1 pressed, value of buttonPressed becomes 1 etc..) I want to test for which button was pressed as little as possible. If I say onClipEvent(mouseDown) it tells me that this can only be used for movie clips. How can i run a simple test to see which button was pressed?
