[F8] Reset Pause/play Toggle When Replay Is Clicked?
I've got a pause/play toggle button for the whole movie, and also a replay button. When I've got the movie paused, and I click the replay button, then the pause/play toggle button is out of synch (says pause but the movie is now playing).

How can I "reset" the pause/play toggle button when the reset button is clicked?

The pause/play toggle is in a two-frame mc setup.

Thanks for looking.

If This Button Clicked Load Mc With This Text If This Button(different One) Clicked L
if this button clicked load mc with this text if this button(different one) clicked load same mc, with different text...is this possible?

Toggle MC On And Off...
hi guys,
I have a button that is nested within an MC. The MC is on the main timeline. Within the MC there are 2 frames, the first is when the button is 'off' and the second when it is 'on'. This works fine I can toggle the MC easily, but my problem is that I have 5 of these same MC/BUTTONS on the stage and if one is turned on and then another I want to turn the last one off or all of them of except the current MC,
thanks in advance,
tom

very newbie question... whats toggle?
the toggle action didnt do anything to my button.

Toggle Between On And Off
I had a problem here with toggling.
I got 5 scenes each with a sound on/off button.
When i click on the sound on/off button to turn off the sound the button will change to Sound On. (meaning when you click on it again it will change back to sound off again which is the default)

Now the problem is, when i click on the button, it will be sound on.. but when i go to another scene the button will change back to sound off...(default). It shouldnt be that way, it should be display Sound On instead since i've toggled it.

How do i go about solving this problem? Anyone? Thanks in advance!

Toggle All The Way?
code:

function togglequality() {
if (control_mc._x == Math.round((Stage.width - control_mc._width ) /2)) {
_quality = "HIGH"
}
else {
_quality = "LOW"
toggleHighQuality;
}
}

togglequality();

hey,

I am abit confused at why this code will no work at the part where it is suppossed to toggle the swf quality back to "HIGH" once "control_mc" has positioned itself in the middle of the stage. i wrote it thinking that it would work, does anyone know the problem. here is the code for when "control_mc" repositions its self:

code:
control_mc.onResize = function() {
control_mc.tween(["_x"],[Math.round(( Stage.width - control_mc._width ) /2)]);
}
Stage.addListener(control_mc)
control_mc.onResize();

so when the "control_mc" moves it eases to the middle and while its easing the quality is set to "LOW" so when it gets to the middle "togglequality" is suppossed to toggle back to "HIGH"

anything i am doing wrong?

thanks

3-way If/Else Toggle
I have several buttons which make visible different sub navigations - however some of the sub navigations are relative to more than one section.
The button code below works for the individual buttons, but I need it to say something like this:

- if Btn1 is selected myMC is visible.
- if Btn2 is selected myMC is visible.
- if both buttons are selected and the user deselects one of the buttons myMC is visible.
- if both Btn1 and Btn2 are deselected myMC is not visible.

Code:
Btn1.onRelease = function() {
if (myMC._visible == false) {
myMC._visible = true;
} else {
myMC._visible = false;
}
Btn2.onRelease = function() {
if (myMC._visible == false) {
myMC._visible = true;
} else {
myMC._visible = false;
}
does that make sense? thanks in advance...

>> Sound On/off Toggle
i'm trying to make a toggle switch (not volume control) for the sound loop in my movie...
here's what i've got so far:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
on (release) {
if (soundOn.music<1) {
_root.flick.gotoAndPlay("flickers");
soundOn.music = soundOn.music+1;
soundOn.soundback.gotoAndStop(1);
stopAllSounds ();
soundOn.gotoAndPlay(2);
} else {
_root.flick.gotoAndPlay("flickers");

soundOn.soundBack.gotoAndPlay("loop");
}
}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
this will turn the sound off okay... and will toggle it back on again when pressed... but i cannot get the sound to turn off again after that. it just drops the sound loop over and over again (on top of itself) creating a virtual trainwreck of a drumloop.

any suggestions?
thanks...

Sound Toggle
I am having a really hard time finding out how to create a sound toggle button in Flash 5. I created one that was a two frame movie clip. It works well until I click a button I have given a 'goToandPlay" previous frame action (my site is a small personal portfolio that works on a frame by frame basis instead of tell target). Can someone please help me? Thank you in advance.

Toggle Button
Hi guys,
I'm trying to create a toggle button that turns on/off a menu. I've tried a number of routes, including variables that are swapped when the button is pressed. i.e. if var=0 then display the menu and set var=1, if var=1 then hide the menu and set var=0. I cannot get this to work so if anyone has an idea then it would be greatly appreciated. p.s. I have the check to see what the variable is on the press action of the button and then swap the variable on the release action of the button.
Confused? I hope not.

Cheers

I'm somewhat new to flash and I'm trying to create a pause button that toggles from pause to play. Here's the script I'm using on the button. It works but there's got to be a better way to do this. I admit, I suck at actionscript.

//brian

on (release) {
if (Number(button) == 2) {
tellTarget ("_root.MovieTest") {
play();
}
button = 1;
} else {
tellTarget ("_root.MovieTest") {
stop();
}
button = 2;
}
}

Sound Toggle
I have a Flash movie that begins with music playing and looping every 10 -15 seconds on the main timeline. I want to create a button that will turn off/on the music on the main timeline (scene 1) without affecting the other scenes. The tricky part is that the music is on its own layer on the main timeline, and is not contained inside the button I created.

So far, I've been able to create the button that turns off the music, but when I click the button again, I cannot figure out how to get the music to play again.

Please help...

Sound Toggle
For the love of God, somebody please help me with this! I was advised from an earlier post to do a set volume action to create my sound toggle. In other words, pressing the button once will play the clip at full volume, pressing it again will play the clip at no volume. How exactly do I do that? I'm a newbie...

Thank you and Regards,

X And Y Coordinates W/ Toggle
I have several buttons on the stage. When one of them is pressed I would like to move the position of all of the others. If it is pressed again, I want them all to come back.

What is the best way to set this up? Keeping file size down. I think it would be using x and y coordinates and a toggle? - if so, can anyone direct me to a good tutorial?

Thanks so much!

HELP With Scripting X,y With Toggle For Mc
My query is this:

I have a mc call it A) on the stage when the file opens. on release of that clip (A), I want another clip (call it B) on the stage (placed outside the window) to move into the window. Upon releasing mc A a second time, I want mc B to move back out of the window.

I have the basics, but have simple clipEvent handler trouble I think.

Can anyone lead me to the right answer? Here is the script I am placing on mc A:

onClipEvent () {
}

i=1;

button.onPress = function(){

Cheers,
Christian
i++;

if (i==2){

mc_a._x = -94.6;

mc_a._y = 148.8;

i=0;

} else if (i==1){

mc_a._x = 137.5;

mc_a._y = 148.8;

}

}

On/off Toggle Button
I have a button for turning music on and off. I see the command for stopallsounds, but I only want it to stop my background sound, not my mouseover sounds. And then I want it to turn the background sound back on the next time it is clicked (toggle).

Does this require an "if statement" of some sort?

Sound Toggle
I need help. How do you make an on and off switch for the sound in your movie? I know how to make the buttons but I don't know the actionscript. Also where would you put the sound? Would the sound go in the same movie clip as the on and off switch or a separate scene or a whole seperate file altogether? Thanks

Toggle At Intervals
Hi everybody,

I've got a movie clip called "modes" with only two frames and a stop action on each one. I want to toggle between these two frames at 10 second intervals. The problem with my code is that is keeps looping back to the first frame without ever resting on the second one. Here's what I've got:
_______________

function switchModes(direction) {
modes.alphaChange = -3;
modes.destinationframe = modes._currentframe+direction;
if (this._currentframe = 1) {
direction = 1;
} else {
direction = -1;
}
}

//change modes every 10 seconds
setInterval(switchModes, 10000);

//fade
modes.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._alpha += this.alphaChange;
if (this._alpha < 0) {
this.alphaChange=this.alphaChange*-1;
this.gotoAndStop(this.destinationFrame);
}
if (this._alpha > 100) {
this.alphaChange = 0;
this._alpha = 100;
}
}
_______________

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Toggle Buttons
For a Flash MX 2004 application I am making, I have made 5 different buttons that I (eventually) want to have playing seperate sound loops. I made all 5 pictures i have into buttons, with an "up" state (a grayscale of the image) and a "down" state (the normal image with color).

What I want right now is to have only one image "lit up" (1 image in color, the other 4 in the grayscale state) when I click on it, and for it to stay lit up when I release the mouse button.

Right now all I can do is click and hold the mouse button down to keep it lit up, instead of having a simple toggle switch.

I read in the help files that there is a way to make toggle buttons, something along the lines of

buttoninstance.toggle = true;

but I am a complete newbie to any sort of interactive Flash, especially anything with scripting

Sorry if this is in any way confusing, but any help would be appreciated

Toggle Buttons
I thought this would be easy but i'm having some trouble... I have 6 MC's which are my buttons. All of the buttons are set at 0 opacity on the main timeline. I'm trying to make it so when you rollover one it goes to 20% opacity (_alpha = 20. Sounds simple, but heres where the toggle comes in, if you click it, it sets the previous to 0 and makes that one 20%. I'm trying to do this without making 6 keyframes and having it go to that keyframe with the already highlighted button...Any ideas on how to go about doing this?

Run While Key Is Held Down/Toggle
Hey everyone, I am making a game and have a basic moving guy (birds eye view) he moves and all, but I was curious if anyone knew how to make him run by holding down a key, or toggling it..I have tried to Key.isToggled method but it doesnt seem to work, I currently want the SHIFT key to be held down, to increase his speed, and return to normal when I let go of the shift...or if thats to hard, simply tapping it on and off would work...

Heres the code I have right now, can somoen modfiy it, or explain to me what to do?

Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
speed = 5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isToggled(Key.SHIFT))
speed = 15
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) { _rotation=0; _y-=speed;
gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) { _rotation=180; _y+=speed;
gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) { _rotation=270; _x-=speed;
gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) { _rotation=90; _x+=speed;
gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && !Key.isDown(Key.UP) && Key.isDown(Key.DOWN) && !Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

Toggle Between Two Sounds
I imported a video (wmv embedded in a movie clip) into flash with sound. Now I want the viewer to be able to toggle between 2 sounds.
1)Turn off the sound of the wmv and play some other sound instead
2)Turn off the other sound and turn on the sound of the wmv

How do I do so in Flash (I am using 8 but I think it doesn’t really matter)

how do i do it?

Audio On/Off Toggle
Hello,

Just completed an on/off toggle tutorial using play/stop buttons. It's based on creating 3 frames in the main timeline.

Frame Code
Frame 1
my_sound = new Sound();
my_sound.attachSound("soundbyte_01");
play();

Frame 2 and 3 (labeled play and stop respectively)
stop();

Button Code
PLAY BTN
on (release) {
_root.my_sound.start(0,1);
_root.gotoAndStop("stop");
}
STOP BTN
on (release) {
_root.my_sound.stop();
_root.gotoAndStop("play");
}

**It works great, but I cannot figure out-- if you create 3 frames (audio player layer) in the main timeline where everything else is on stage, and then you jump to "play frame" when clicking the play button, the movie will jump back to frame 2. How can a play/stop toggle be encapsulated in an MC so the MC containing the toggle buttons can be placed on a layer on stage without regard to the main timeline?

Am I overcomplicating this? Is there another logical approach to placing music players/buttons on stage?

THANKS!!!

Using A Toggle To Control An SWF
HI there
I was wondering if anyone can point me to a tutorial or provide help in order to create a toggle that controls the timeline of the movie.

So, say for example, I have a fla with 100 frames, I want the user to be able to control going from frame 1 to frame 100 by dragging a toggle left to right...

Let me know if you need any clarification.

Thank you!

[F8] Boolean Toggle
Bleh. My code for my game isn't working, and I can't quite figure out why it doesn't.

Right now I'm trying to toggle a boolean function between true and false, and it works for making it true, but any code I use after it won't work.

Code:
if (GotHat == true && HatFlip == false){
_root.b3.onRelease = function(){
HatFlip = true;
TextBox.text = "You flip your hat inside out.";
}
}else if (GotHat == true && HatFlip == true){
_root.b3.onRelease = function(){
HatFlip == false;
TextBox.text = "You flip your hat rightside-out.";
}
} else if (GotHat != true){
_root.b3.onRelease = function(){
TextBox.text = "You don't have a hat to flip!";
}
}

Now, the first and last bit of code works. If you don't have GotHat activated, it'll display that message "You don't have a hat to flip!" and if you have GotHat activated, it'll turn HatFlip to true.

HOWEVER, even if GotHat is true and HatFlip are true, that second bit of code won't work, so you never see "You flip your hat rightside-out." I stuck "trace ("this works!")" in there, but I never see it in the output window, so I suspect that the code is being skipped over.

Sound Efx/ Toggle Off
