Flash :: Question Regarding Cool Navigation

Really Cool Navigation
Hi

I saw a really cool navigation once, it was vertical, a column, and had like 5 buttons. for instance:

BUTTON 1
BUTTON 2
BUTTON 3
BUTTON 4
BUTTON 5

now when i click, for example, "button 2"... button 3, 4, and 5 moves down, and a 'sub-menu' for button 2 opens up, like this:

BUTTON 1
BUTTON 2
=Sub-Button1
=Sub-Button2
=Sub-Button3
=Sub-Button4
BUTTON 3
BUTTON 4
BUTTON 5

Then i can click any of the 'sub-buttons', but when i click for example "button 4", the sub-menu of button 2 closes, and the sub-menu of button 4 opens up, you know what i'm saying?

Anyone have ANY examples that i can find out how to do it, or get the code for, or anything?

Please help

Thanks

Cool Navigation
Hello everyone.

I'm looking for a similar action script like this site does on top of the page.
http://www.hands-net.jp/top.html
When you mouse over one of menu sections, it shows its content inside and the other menus is being squashed and pushed aside.

If you know some script that resembles to this pls let me know.
Thank you.

Cool Navigation Bar
Hi friends,
I have visited the following URL:
http://experiencewonderyou.co.uk/

I like the most of the things in this site but the only thing which really amazed me is the navigation bar.

On mouse over the menu the background picture transition take place. I guess there are three pictures, and they are doing it with the Action script.

I don't really get the concept . How they are doing it?? could any one help me with an example??

For some reason The 3D menu isn't shown on all sites (cuntries) so if you choose "Denmark" and click the box on the bottom left "Undertøj" and then click the top link "Nyheder" you should see the navigation.

Now my Q is obviesly... how do ya make a cool thing like that. Any hints, tuts or even better suggestions is appreciatet.

CS3 Cool Cube Navigation , How Is It Done ?
Hi All ...anyone have any idea how Adobe created the cool CS3 cube nav

i have been searching the web for days now searching for some help
& all iam finding is , extension's & totally 100 % driven AS2

iam figuring, that it was created with Photoshop's 3D engine & then frame by frame animation or with behaviors ?

because there are 2 ways of seeing this

when you rollover the cube, the cube rotates 2 increments, 2 frames iam guessing
this can be done with an invisible button surrounding the cube , or a behavior

any ideas ?

Cool Navigation I Made. Now How Can I Do This With AS?
SEE IT HERE ----> http://s91931107.onlinehome.us/nav/
FLA ----> http://s91931107.onlinehome.us/nav/nav.fla

Could someone tell me how i could accomplish this same kind of navigation, but with mostly AS. Right now I use a bunch of tweens a duplicate mc's, and as a result i can't really do much with it... its hard to explain, but the way I have it set up now all 4 squares have to be the same color, if i want to change something it takes a while... and there are some other problems.

Im thinking there's a much better way to do this. Could an experienced flasher help me out? Would be much appreciated. I got some great ideas of how I am gonna use this nav, but i want to redo it and make it simple and efficient before I procede.

The code below will resize an MC, but how do i get the bounce effect, and make the other 3 MC's still to the corner like in the nav I made.

-----------------
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (change == true) {
_yscale += int(goaly-_yscale)/3;
_y += int(goal2y-_y)/3;
}
}

//script to be called to scale the clip//

on (press) {
_root.MyClip.change = true;
_root.MyClip.goaly = 200;
}
--------------------

THANKS!

Cool Navigation System
Hey,

I am looking to try and create a navigation similar to what is shown here:
Click Here to View It

I hope to have it the same pretty much except with drag and drop interaction instead of clicking on the images. I have the drag and drop working fine, but what I am wondering is how they get the images to load when the user is getting close to them , and how to make the images move forward, as I take it this is done with actionscript.

Any help will be greatly appeciated, thanks.

Create This Cool Navigation
Hi everyone!

Does anyone know how the navigation on this site is done:
http://www.domanistudios.com/ (go to work section)

In this portfolio section, each square or thumbnail is a button with a rollover. The navigation here scrolls slowly right on mouseover and then speeds up or changes direction according to how you move the mouse.
VERY COOL!

I've searched the forum and have found similar but not what I really want. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks

Cool Site Navigation..how Does It Work?
Hi fellow flashers:

I saw this awesome site with cool navigation and each time the page refreshes, the background image changes the same as in the flash file:

http://www.givetoodu.com/

Any ideas how this is achieved? Just need to be pointed in the right direction. I am assuming the flash file calls a javacscript in the HTML and it reloads the background accordingly but just wanted to share info.

Cheers, Jag

Help With An Ultra-cool Navigation Concept
hey y'all,

working on a project which i need a bit of assistance on; if this can't be done then i'll take a simpler approach, but this would be way sweeter. download the fla and take a look.

scrolling clothesline (saved as Flash 7)

i'd like to let the user be able to scroll through the thumbnail 'filmstrip' clips, in much the same way as you see in the example, only i'd like to modify it to do the following but am not sure how to script this:

- have the clips align to and follow along the clothesline as they currently do, as well as let the user scroll through them
- have the clips scle from smaller (about 90% smaller than they are now) to 100%, from left to right
- let the user grab the laundry clothesline wheel to the right, and manually scroll through the clips by turning it counter-clockwise (at this point the auto scrolling script would be disabled, and re-enabled when the user rolls out of the wheel's hit state area

nothing to it, right? ;-)

thanks for any and all help - let me know if you have any questions

Cool Menu, Bad Actionscript. Need To Fix Navigation Please Help
Hi I am having a lot of trouble with a cool looking menu component that I have. It has a bounce animation which is nice, however, each time I try and add script to make the buttons navigate to another URL the animation stops working.

I have uploaded the source files to:
http://www.sourcegrafikdesign.com/files.zip
Feel free to download and see if you can figure it out!

I have tried using:
_root.movieClipName.onPress=function(){ //since it is a button it will continue to play (or do anything you want if you put the code in here)
getURL("http://www.website.com", "_blank");
}
in the frame actions but with no luck, i have also tried onclipevent(mousedown) but all that does is open every linked button on the page at the same time!.

I need the help of someone with more Actionscript knowledge then I have!!

Thanks

Really Cool Image Navigation Anyone Know How It Works?
there is no absolute url, but it is pretty easy to find.

1. go to www.colorsmagazine.com
2. click on archives at the top
3. click on number issue#54 titled "Food"
4. then click on the magazine cover that will appear on the right to bring up that issue's flash site.. you will see what I'm talking about, it is the only element on the page.

How does it work? There is a small square on the left, where you can drag a square to a point of interest on an image, and the image, which takes up the rest of the space follows along.

also, click on the milk dripping from his mouth to activate the other menu.

Thanks!

PS: really good flash stuff on that site, check out the "violence" issue... really cool experimental flash stuff.

That Wicked Cool 'Levitated' Floating Text: How To Add Real Navigation?
The amazing floating text seen by many:

http://www.levitated.net/daily/levTextSpace.html

With this code:

// register root as environment
Object.environment = this;
// create camera object
this.cam = {x:0, y:0, z:500, dx:0, dy:0, dz:-500};
// set environmental constants
this.fl = 1000;
// create 'space' to which all words will be attached
this.createEmptyMovieClip("space", 1);
// center 'space' on the stage
space._x = 300;
space._y = 169;
// a string of words related to the wind
this.somewords = "wind breeze storm stormy tornado text space three dimensional infinite recursive instance object distort environmental atmospheric blow gush whoosh thrash whirl push roar rush caress flow swoop";
// convert the string of words into an array of words
this.wordList = new Array();
this.wordList = this.somewords.split(" ");
// create one instance for each word in the list
for (n=0; n<this.wordList.length; n++) {
// pick a word from the list
var word = Object.environment.wordList[n];
var x = random(600)-300;
var y = random(337)-169;
var z = random(Object.environment.fl*2)-Object.environment.fl;
// create an instance of the SpaceWord object
nombre = "word"+String(depth++);
initialization = {txtword:word, x:x, y:y, z:z};
space.attachMovie("spaceWord", nombre, depth, initialization);

//The code I have added to utilise the words as links

if (_root.spaceWord.txtword == "breeze") {
with (_root.box) {
gotoAndStop("test");
}
}
}
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
this.cam.dz += .5;
// move the camera to its destination
this.cam.x += (this.cam.dx-this.cam.x)/10;
this.cam.y += (this.cam.dy-this.cam.y)/10;
this.cam.z += (this.cam.dz-this.cam.z)/30;
};
stop();

I've been searching endlessly for ways to actually make the buttons float a bit once you've clicked on one, then have a new movie load - depending on which bit of text you've selected. I believe the solution lies in adding variables to the array string, but exactly how to go from there I've not a clue!

Here's another thread on this:
http://board.flashkit.com/board/show...ight=levitated

Any help would be much appreciated. I've been dying to work this out.

CuePoint Navigation Vs. CueSegment Navigation
Having problems throwing up a talking head slide show in MX2004 Pro.

1) The slider works going forwards, but not going backwards
2) The buttons seeking slides work going forward, but not going backwards

After talking with tech support, it seems the problem is with how they set up CuePoint navigation. Basically, a single time point = cue point triggers an event, which is a slide change. This is triggered from left to right in time, but not going the other way.

A slide show requires a different action script; however. It is not cue points that are linked with slides, but SEGMENTS in time are linked with STATES that correspond with a certain slide being in place.

Is there an action script expert out there who could help me program this into a slider that really works, going backwards and forwards?

If that is too ambitious, how can I subtract 300 milliseconds from q.time?

This will at least, hopefully, make the slide buttons work, since they will seek to a time point slightly before the actual cue point.

SO COOL
HAHAH, tricked you into looking at my post,

sorry

I need help with this script im working on,
masking duplicated movies

here is a idea of what i mean

http://www.btinternet.com/~nzo/dupmask.fla

The depth of field for each one duplicated is added up i++; / i=i+1; how can anybody possibly mask this???

Ok, So I've Got A Cool Nav-bar....
but how do i get the links on it (i.e. if you click mine it go's nowhere) is that an action script, or do i place each different section (like home) on my site and use html to make it a clickible picture??

This Would Be So Cool
How would i do this:

I have this image:
http://www.swooh.com/lorenzo/volitionhead.jpg

the main head, (which is the logo of http://www.volition-inc.com) i want to make rotating... like in those computer games where you pick your character, where it shows the head and a camera 'rotating' around the head, on the X-axis... i'm sure you know what i mean... where it's like the camera man walked around the person's head in a circle with the camera always pointing at the head.

Is it possible to do that in Flash? if not, what program could i do that in? would i need a Flash plugin or something?

please let me know.

To make it easier, here is the logo 'cut up' into 'V' and 'head':

This Was Way Cool
I saw something that was just freaking amazing to me and I would like to know how it is done or if there is a tutorial on it. I think it has to do with setting layers and transparency, but I am not sure. Anyhow, I was visiting this site that had a banner at the top for nike shoes (or something like that) and it was a regular banner size (468x60) and made in flash. Well, as I was reading the page, out of nowhere a huge "shoe" was floating in front of me dancing like a flying saucer...then after about 5-10 seconds of floating around to get my attention fully focused on it, it flys into the banner where it becomes static and part of the banner itself. Man, what a great effect that was.

My question is simply: HOW??? Take note, I am not a master at Flash, but rather just a casual user and I am definatley not a actionscript expert...but, I learn quick if someone could lay out how this is done or point me to a tutorial on this. Yes...I am begging...lol

peace out,
daddy
