Third Party Tool To Show Or Hide Panels In Flash



Hi, I used to have a program that did this function:Panels like the actions or the timeline one could be hidden, and if you moved the mouse to the edge of the screen, they would appear, italso worked with Photoshop (i think).I'm looking for it, I had it installed on my old computer, and I recentlychanged to a new one, but sadly I don't remember the name of thatprogram.thnks.

Hide Flash When Done Then Show Hetm
I've got a flash intro that builds until it looks like the finished page, then I want it to hide and then show an html page that looks exactly the same. I was thinking that it could be done with javascript or css or something. Any ideas?

My other solution is when the flash movie is finished then it would open another page with an identical html, but the problem is that there will be a page change and it won't be nice and smooth. It will blank out then rebuild with html. I would like to avoid the blank page.

Any way to preload html and images while flash is running?

thanks

New Flash Cs3 User Needs Help Hide/show Object
Hi

I have just begun using Flash cs3 and am trying to learn the basics. I am trying to craete a simple animation: 2 white circles on opposite sides of the screen that alternately display and hide for .5 seconds each for a total movie of 30 seconds.

I've tried to find tutorials with no success. So far, I have created 2 layers, each with a circle (circle1 and circle2) that has been dragged to the stage after being converted to a movieclip symbol. I'm so new at Flash that I'm not sure where to place a script like circle1.visible=false. I've tried different places in the script editor but keep getting error messages on debugging. So, I'm lost and hope someone can either point me to a very, very basic tutorial on hide/show or can provide a ste-by-step walk-through on how to create this animation.

Thanks for any assitance.

Kind Regards,

[F8] - Calling Show/Hide Layer Javascript From Flash Not Working In IE6/7
I have a Flash movie that calls the Macromedia Dreamweaver swap layer javascript when a user clicks on a mc. This js activates the appropriate div layer that was previously hidden. It's working just fine in Firefox and Safari, but it is not working in IE6 or 7.

The file is being saved in Flash 7 format, and the plugins I have in all my browsers are Flash 9. I suspect this has something to do with Flash's security settings, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

Trigger Show/hide Multiple Div Layers From Flash Movie
Hello,
I need to show and hide multiple DIV layers by clicking on buttons inside an embedded flash movie. I looked around and the closest I got was this tutorial here:

http://www.bestflashanimationsite.com/tutorials/1/

but the problem is I need 10 buttons to each show one layer while hiding the other ones. For example, I click button 1, layer 1 shows, then I click on button 5, layer 1 is hidden and layer 5 shows etc.

How can the above code be split so instead of showing all DIV layers at once, it shows one and hides the rest??? If anyone has any suggestion it would help tons. Thanks.

Flash Button Hide/show A DIV-Layer On A Html Page?
Hi All!
Trying to get a drop down hide/show div on a html page triggered by a button in flash.
so by default that div is hidden on html and when u click on flash button,it will show a hide button inside div tag
(Intro: Very very Little experience in dynamic flash)

I found this code, but i'm not sure it's what I need, and it's not working...

Flash file>button on stage>script:
Code: ( actionscript )


on (release) {
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
ExternalInterface.call("hideDiv", "operator");
}



And the code in the html file:
Code: ( javascript )


<html>
<head>
<title>page title</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function hideDiv(id)
{
document.getElementById(id).style.display = 'none';
}
</script>
</head>
<body>

<div id="operator">
<input type = button value = button>

</div>
</body>
</html>


Does anyone have a better (working) way of getting a flash button to talk to the html page to *togggle* a hidden div?

Any ideas would be muchly appreciated!
Thankyou so much in advance!

Panels In Panels In Panels (my Own Class) Confusion
Hi

I'm trying to create a class Panel which I can use to place content in or place panels in them.
I'm a bit stuck and I don't know how to handle the following problem:

I want to make future positioning and creation of content as easy as possible. That's why I'm using this Panel class (concept of java). I want my main .fla to contain this:


Code:
import Panel;

var myMainPanel:Panel = new Panel();
var myInlinePanel:Panel = new Panel();

myMainPanel.addPanel(myInlinePanel);
_root.addPanel(myMainPanel);
Of course this is prototype code :p I want to give parameters with the panel constructor but I left them out for clearing the code.

At the moment I'm stuck in my Panel class. I already figured out that I need 3 MovieClips inside an instance of Panel, it doesn't really matter what these 3 MovieClips do for my problem.

In the code above you see that I'm not drawing anything on the stage yet (when the constructors are called). I only know how to make MovieClips and fill them instantly.

So, my question: how do I create MovieClips without drawing them on the stage yet?

My current code for the Panel class:

Code:
class Panel extends MovieClip{
private var myPanel:MovieClip;
private var myPanelContent:MovieClip;
private var myPanelViewport:MovieClip;
private var myPanelMask:MovieClip

public function Panel(){
myPanelContent = myPanel.createEmptyMovieClip("panelContent_mc", myPanel.getNextHighestDepth());
myPanelViewport = myPanel.createEmptyMovieClip("panelViewport_mc", myPanel.getNextHighestDepth());
myPanelMask = myPanel.createEmptyMovieClip("panelMask_mc", myPanel.getNextHighestDepth());
};
};
Thanks in advance

[CS3] Sub-nav In Show-hide Nav Bar...
I'm working on a nav bar that shows/hides on mouse on/off respectively, but having problems with a way to get the sub-nav working.

I've kind of managed to get it to work (kind of) in a 'clumsy' way but if anybody has any ideas of alternative (which there will be) to do it so it works more efficiently.

The files in CS3 but AS 2.0

Show And Hide MC
Hi There,

please I'm trying to make sothing like this sound player here:

http://www.b-klasse.com/dcvd

When you roll over the player show total, when u roll out hide again.

I try to use movie clip as a mask, but it didn't get thru. The Buttons stop working...

Please someone have a tip how to make it easier...

Thanks

Hide/show MCs
Got a list of MCs being populated from an XML file. Basically a list of two different types of information. Some are type A, some are type B.

Want to have a couple buttons that filter based on type (so if I push the button for type A (called "typeAbtn" below), only those MCs appear and type B MCs go to _alpha = 0 or something).

Can't seem to come up with a function to do it. I can't figure out how to reference all my MCs from outside the first function correctly.

terrible attempt:

Code:
function showMCs() {
for (var j = 0; j<stuff.length; j++) {
MC = timeline_mc["MC"+j];
MC.type = xml.blahblah.attribute.type;
...

typeAbtn.onPress = function() {
if ( MC.type == "B" ) {
MC[?].alpha = 0;
}
}

AS 2 Show/Hide Nav + Sub Nav
Hi,

I'm working on a nav for my own site and have managed to get the first part working where the main nav shows and hides, but can't get the sub nav to work.

Basically all I want is a way to get a subnav to animate in so it hides the main nav. Then until the user hits a back button to go back to the main nav, the sub nav will show/hide.

If someone can help or point me in the right direction. It would be very much appreciated as this is driving me bonkers!

[AS]Show/Hide
Here's a bit of code i created using Nutrox's (Splat's) function from the ActionScript tips thread.
I needed to be able to switch multiple movieclips invisible and visible dynamically.
Might come in useful to someone.


ActionScript Code:
function setVisibility(parent:MovieClip, visibility:Boolean):Void {
        var i:String;
        for (i in parent) {
                     parent[i]._visible = visibility;
        }
}


So, setting all the movieclips on the stage invisible would go:

ActionScript Code:
setVisibility(_root, false);


or, setting all mc's in myMovieclip_mc visible:

ActionScript Code:
setVisibility(myMovieclip_mc, true);

Controlling "Show/Hide Layer" HTML Commands , Via Flash ?
First off , ello everybody /

Righty , half way through doing a site thats mainly done in HTML , but utilises a flash navigation & mp3 player built in flash.

I dont belive in frames so they havent been used , now the problem is when changing HTML pages (via flash navigation) the Mp3 player is reseting itself (cant belive i didnt see it coming). but since the site is small , im hoping i can get the navigation to use the "Show / Hide layer" function to browse through each of the sites pages without visiting a new HTML page in thr browser.... So the player doesnt reset.

Any ideas ?

Hide And Show Mouse?
I have a movie with some buttons in it. When the mouse i over a button I want the cursor to hide and change. I've solved that. But how do I do to show the cursor when the mouse rolls out?
I've done it like this:
In the button I've put a MC in the "Down" frame and that MC has this code in it:
onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
this.startDrag(true);
updateAfterEvent();
}
When I move around the cursor I can't see any cursor now! How do I do to show the cursor? And where should I put the script?

Show/hide Images
Hi there, hope someone can help me...

I have a movie clip (just 1 image)positioned on the stage with an alpha value of '0'

I have a button on the stage to make the movie clip alpha value chnage to '100' on roll over and 'o' on roll out.

The code is as follows:

on (rollOver) {

}
on (rollOut) {
_root.setProperty("slapImage", _alpha, "0");
}

Of course nothing happens when the button is activated - what am I doing wrong

Grateful for any tips...

Show/Hide Movieclips...
I've searched but couldn't quite get what I want, so I was looking to see if anyone could give me the snippet of code I'm looking for.

It's a basic hide/show button feature. Once my first MC(containing my button), titled graphic9_a, is clicked I want it to show the movie clip graphic9_show.

I have graphic9_show hiding immediately, once the page is loading using

onClipEvent (load){
this._visible = false;
}

However now I'd like to know two things..

1. What code must I enter to the actions on the button in graphic9_a to set graphic9_show to visible = true

2. How to re-hide graphic9_show once another button will be clicked, let's call that one graphic10_a ...

Any ideas?

Show/hide Graphic
hi!
can someone show me the script to show / hide a graphic?
thanx in advance!

Show/hide Troubles
I have a series of buttons that, when clicked will show or hide a movie clip. So, if the "bio_bonnie" mc is visible, all others should be hidden. The problem I'm having is that for each button, it requires 2 clicks of the mouse to get things going, and either show or hide.

Example; on entering the frame, all mc's are hidden bio_bonnie._visible=false;
bio_tim._visible=false;
bio_jeremy._visible=false;
bio_ken._visible=false;
bio_mark._visible=false;
bio_david._visible=false;
bio_bert._visible=false;

then, on each button I have this script

on (press) {
bio_tim._visible = false;
bio_jeremy._visible = false;
bio_ken._visible = false;
bio_mark._visible = false;
bio_david._visible = false;
bio_bert._visible = false;
}

on (release) {
if (biovisibility = !biovisibility){
bio_bonnie._visible = false;
}else{
bio_bonnie._visible = true;
}
}

I want to be able to hide any bio mc that may be visible, and then make visible the selected mc - all in one click. As I said, it's taking 2 clicks on each button, and that's really annoying

Thanks in advance!

Show / Hide Scroll Box
I have a scroll text box and a button below it. I'd like to have the button click to show the scroll text pane and then click again to hide it. I can create a shape that covers the text pane, but since I'm really new to flash, I don't know how to turn the shape on and off. If someone could display some code for me, that'd be great. Thanks!
