Active Button With Keystroke
Hi, I have a series of buttons already created so that when you rollover them, a short movie clip with an embeded sound plays. It works something like and animated keyboard. I would like to associated the buttons with keystrokes as well. This would would work so that when you press the button "A" the "A" key will play the movie that has the sound and animation in it.
Example:
(keypress A) My_A_button.State = "Rollover"
or
(keypress A) My_A_button.State = "Down"
I am using flash MX.

Button Using Keystroke
I want to make a keystroke (using "i") stop sounds and another keystoke (using "y") to activate the sound again. It will work in the movie, but not in the html. Does anyone know why it won't work when embedded in the html page?

Making A Button Refresh? - Active Button

tar = tar +10;
}
When i use this on a button, is there any way to make it keep repeating? Such as as long as the mouse is over the button, it adds +10 in like second intervals?
Thank You,

Button Still Active
hey guys
Promblem on my site:
link
"When you select an option in the portfolio section, the link you selected remains active when the content loads over it. Move the mouse pointer around over the white area to the left of the photo of the girl, you'll see what I mean."
I'm struggling to stop that happening - as the button that is causing the problem is within the sliding page - I can't take the sliding page out of that section of the movie as if I do when the user closes the portfolio section the sliding page will slide back to the "about" section - instead of returning to the portfolio main section which there were at (sliding page portfolio section)
I tried another way which was to add a solid colour over where the buttons would be to block them on the layer above the sliding pages - but that didn't work either
I have a feeling this is going to be a tricky one...hope somebody can help to solve this issue

Active Url Button
Hi, I'm making a navigation for some html and php pages and was wondering if it would be possible for the flash file to detect the url so I can make the button "active" so the user knows where they are?
If I used the php $HTTP_SELF var and passed that to the flash file would that work?
Thanks very much for any help in advance.

Active Button State
Hi all
Is there a way when you use a button, to make an "active" state, in other words, when it is clicked, it has a different state to over/down.
I can do it using tellTarget, where I have a completely different movieclip that overlayers over the button.
Secondly, what is the point of adding more frames to a button than the four it allready has.
thanks

Button Active When Another MC Is At A Certain Frame
I have a movieclip "bttn" with an invisible button over it. I'm using the following code on the button to get a smooth rollout on the movieclip
on (rollOver) {
bttn.play();
}
on (rollOut) {
cFrame = bttn._currentFrame;
bttn.gotoAndPlay(30-cFrame);
}
It has 29 frames so from frames 16 to 29 it plays the reverse of 1 to 15.
I have a stop command on 15. Basically I only want the onPress command to work when the MC "bttn" has stopped at frame 15.
What do I do? I've attached the .fla
REALLY appreciate any help

Having To Click On A Button Twice To Active
I am having a problem with my buttons.
For some reason i have to click on the buttons twice to get them to run the script.
The buttons are held two movies deep (movie within a movie within a movie) and the script is attached to the button to run with the mouse is released.
Its a pretty basic script, just telling the root movie to play and another movie to do something else.
The buttons and scripts work correctly but you have to click on the button twice for it to do so.
I am a fairly experienced flash user/scripter using Flash MX.
Is there something basic that i am missing?
Thanks

Active State For Button.
Is it possible to have like the equivalent to a (html) active state for a flash button so that when you have clicked on a button and it loads the mov file the button colour changes and so that tells the user that section is currently active.
Hope this makes sense if not have a look at the mov. attached.

Scrollpane And Button Active
I have a scrollpane, a movie clip which loads into it. this clip contains a few buttons. the scroll pane gives the buttons the hover and press states. I can controll these from they styles for the scrollpane fine. However there is no option for a active state that I could find. Is there any way to have an active state? I have tried everything I could think of and search high and low with no luck. so if I have three buttons and first is clicked it will remain as active till one of the others is clicked.
thanks dave

Active Button State
Hi Guys,
Ive just built a audio player. everything works Spiffy. But I have one issue.
My mute button functions as should in terms of volume. However, I have two images.
a) the mute button without cross. - suggesting volume isnt muted.
b) the mute button with cross. - suggesting volume is muted.
How do I go about making the button image swap to the muted image when in that state. and swap back to the unmuted image when clicked again.
I hope that is clear enough.
Thanks heaps,

Active State For MC / Button
Hi
This is driving me mad as it should be incredibly simple (been doing it in AS for years.) I have an MC that I’m using as a button. It has a background and label. For the MOUSE_OVER & MOUSE_OUT events I’m just changing the color of the label. For the CLICK event I’m changing the background color and making the label color the same as it’s MOUSE_OVER state. This all works fine except when I mouse off the button the MOUSE_OUT kicks in and makes my label the OFF color when I want it to remain the ON color. In AS2 I used to do this:
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.enabled = false;
But this does not work. I’ve also tried:
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.mouseEnabled = false;
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.buttonMode = false;
But again this does not work. Please help … I’m going mad. Here is the full code:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.buttonMode = true;
//
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.addEventListener(M ouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, overSection_3_1);
function overSection_3_1(e:MouseEvent):void {
TintColor.addTint(Section3Content.section_3_1_btn. myLabel, 0xFFFFFF, 1);
}
//
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.addEventListener(M ouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, outSection_3_1);
function outSection_3_1(e:MouseEvent):void {
TintColor.addTint(Section3Content.section_3_1_btn. myLabel, 0x5C0E59, 1);
}
//
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.addEventListener(M ouseEvent.CLICK, doSection_3_1);
function doSection_3_1(e:MouseEvent):void {
TintColor.addTint(Section3Content.section_3_1_btn. myLabel, 0xFFFFFF, 1);
TintColor.addTint(Section3Content.section_3_1_btn. myBackground, 0x921E6D, 1);
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.mouseEnabled = false;
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.enabled = false;
Section3Content.section_3_1_btn.buttonMode = false;
}

I have a movieclip that reacts to the cursor postion, but when the movie is embed into a browser such as firefox, i dont want the button to be active until the cursor has actully rolled over the flash movie as it seems to be active before the cursor has hit the actual flash object?!
Does that make sense?

How To Keep Button Down State Active
Hi all
I'm a newbie to flash, however I've been able to create a navigation bar using flash buttons I have two different images one for the up state and another for the over and down state. Now the pages I'm creating are html not full flash. In Fireworks and Dreamweaver you are able to show the down state for the particular page you're on eg. home button highlighted on the home page, aboutus highlighted on the aboutus page.... you get the picture.
How do I do this in Flash, I've looked everywhere, there are references that you can do this with javascript similar to the Dreamweaver, Fireworks actions, which would be great, just change the script for each page, here is the script I found however it didn't give any other details except to place this in onload.
window.document.myFlash.SetVariable(button1, true);
however I have no idea how this is suppose to work, I changed the id of the flash to myFlash for the flash file I changed the button instance name to button1, however I think this is incorrect but don't know how else to reference the button.
Can anyone please help, I have searched these forums and Google but haven't found anything that would help, I might be dense and been searching for the wrong thing. But if anyone could assist I'd be much abliged.
Cheers

Active Button Problem
I have some buttons on my website that I only want to be active when a certain variable is equal to a number. I don’t know how to write the code for it to look for the variable at any point within the movie clip. I can only get it to work on enterFrame or load, but the variable changes every time one of the navigation buttons is hit. What is the code that I need to write?
Thank you for your help.
This is what the original button script looks like.
ActionScript Code:
on (rollover) {
mikepurdy._visible = true;
var my_color:Color = new Color(butt_mike);
my_color.setRGB(0x2F4F91);
}

Setting Active Button From Different Level?
I'm kinda stuck on this one..
I have my loadmovie at level0, my main content files load in at level1, my border/logo on level2 and my different sets of buttons at level3 and 4 (seperate due to some not always appearing, just figured it'd be easier)..
Now.. my question is.. with say the bottom buttons being level3, when I click on "Contact Us" or "About Us", and it loads the new movie into level1, how can I set the button I just clicked to remain active until another button is hit?
Is there a floating variable I can set and then change within the content level?
So you can see what I mean.. here is the site: http://www.1337designs.com/hgl

Keeping The Button Active When Jpg Loads. How?
I want to use mutiple copies of the same button over and over in an image gallery to load external jpg into an image container on the same stage. I also want the button to reamins in the "active" or "selected" or "down" position when the images is loaded. Is this possible using the action script?:
on (release) {
_root.container.loadMovie("myimage.jpg");
}
is there another way to do this so that when theimage loads the user knows which button they have just pushed and to go on to the next one?
Thank you for any help!!!!
Removing Active State From Button
Hi,
I'm currently working on a dynamic tab menu. I've managed to get everything working as it should with the exception of trying to remove the active state from a button. The problem arises when i click on another tab (non active), the non active tab goes to the active state howver i can't remove the active state from the original button.
Code below:
Code:
this.onRollOver = function()
{
if (this._name != "admin_tab_btn_"+_root.link) {
admin_button.gotoAndStop("over");
}
}
this.onRollOut = function()
{
if (this._name != "admin_tab_btn_"+_root.link) {
admin_button.gotoAndStop("up");
}
}
this.onRelease = function()
{
if (this._name != "admin_tab_btn_"+_root.link)
tab_name = this._name;
sub = new String( tab_name );
_root.link = sub.slice( 14 );
admin_button.gotoAndStop("active");
_root.administration_mc.gotoAndPlay("s"+_root.link);
}
}
stop();
The above code is on a frame. The frame also contains the movie admin_button. This movie has 4 frames. Frmae 1 is the default state for the button, frame 2 is labeled "over" and has the over state, frame 3 is labeled "up" and holds the rolloutside state and finally frame 4 which is labeled "active" an has the active state.
Any ideas as to where i might be going wrong?

[F8] Making A Button Active And Inactive
Hi,
I was hoping someone here would be able to explain this code to me.
Code:
on (release) {
if (_root.i<>4) {
if (_root.i<>6) {
_root["item"+_root.i].i = 1;
_root["item"+_root.i].gotoAndPlay("s3");
_root.i = 4;
//_root.cont.gotoAndPlay("s1");
} else {
_root["item"+_root.i].gotoAndPlay("s2");
_root.i = 4;
for (j=1; j<5; j++) {
_root["item"+j].i = 1;
_root["item"+j].gotoAndPlay("s3");
}
}
_root.cont.swapDepths(50);
}
}
I purchased a flash template to learn from by altering it and playing with it. What I am trying to do is create multiple pages of one of the page it came with (the about us section). I was able to duplicate the page make changes to it and get a button to link to it. The problem I am having is that because I duplicate the about us page the button that links you back to the original about us page becomes in-active so I can't get to it from my new copied pages.
Anyway, the code above is what is on the about us button - I don't have a complete understanding of what the code is actually doing so, my question is, does this part of the code have the information I need in order to tell it not to become in-active or am I looking in the wrong place.
Any help would be great!
Thank you!

[CS3] Make Button Active On FLV Load
Hi Everyone,
I am currtently working with a video player... see it here:
http://team.learn.com/files/upload/C.../IGT_demo.html
There is a problem. Because of our authoring tool and process we need to go with this format, one flv.
As you can see, if you click a button to watch a segment that hasnt buffered yet, the player locks until the buffer reaches that point.
Is there a way to make it so a navigation button won't be active until that part of the FLV has loaded, to prevent someone from choosing a button too far dwon the video buffer before it loads? Maybe make the buttons greyed out, and become active when the file has buffered enough to naviage?

Active State Of A Button Problem
Hi everyone,
I've created 4 square buttons (square1_butt, square2_butt, square3_butt, square4_butt) and this the AS that I have put on square1_butt :
on (release) {
var colorful = new Color("square4_butt");
colorful.setRGB(0xFF0099);
}
on (release) {
var colorful = new Color("square2_butt");
colorful.setRGB(0xFF99CC);
}
on (release) {
var colorful = new Color("square3_butt");
colorful.setRGB(0xFF99CC);
}
on (release) {
var colorful = new Color("square1_butt");
colorful.setRGB(0xFF99CC);
}
It actually works, but it "disables" the original 4 states of the button (up, over, down, hit). Basically while releasing square1_butt I'd like the other buttons to return to their original color defined by the different other states of the button. Do anybody know how I can do that, "reset" ?
Thank you.
PS : I know my actionscript is super lame, but it's the only thing i came up with to do what I wanted to do...
Another--Menu Button Active State
I have been browsing trough 100´s of threads and i didn't really find a solution for my problem. I realize this do underline my lack of knowledge on this arrear, but somehow i don't think its all that complicated.
I got the hitTest and rewind methods of this site as well but combining it turned out bad
Im looking for a way to keep my button in an active state till the next button is pressed!
PHP Code:
_root.btn1.onMouseMove = function()
{
if(!this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true))
{ rewind = true; }
}
_root.btn1.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true)
{ this.prevFrame(); }
}
_root.btn1.onRollOver = function(){
rewind = false;
this.play(); }
_root.btn1.onRelease = function(){
delete this.onRollOver;
delete this.onMouseMove; }
Now the button dos go inactive when pressed due to my brutal delete action on the functions on release>> But how do i make my "btn1" rewind and reactivate when a similar "btn2" is pressed. I have tried somewhat lame solutions by writing long if functions as well as assigning an active button var ...but no luck...
Any help appreciated ty

Button Class Active Listener
Hi All
I have a cutom button class. it has a rollover , rollout and active states. I have 5 instances of this button in a container called container. What I want is when one puttone is in the in the active satate and another button is pressed it puts the first button in its default state, removes its active state. I used to do this in as2 by just looping through all buttons and returning them to default state onpress and onrelease I would set the new button to active. Not quite working in as3 also hoping there is a better way with a listener or something. read something about using prototype for this but cant find anything concrete. any help would be greate
Current Nav Button In Active State
Greetings kirupa people,
Can anyone explain how I would replicate the navigation on the following site: www.8dd.co.uk
It's very simple I know (like me with ActionScript!) but I have trawled the forums and can't find anything similar that I have managed to successfully work out for myself. For those that haven't looked at the example it is a menu with normal (grey text) and rollover/active states (red text). The current selected option should be disabled and on the active state until another option is selected. This serves to tell the viewer where they are without repeating it elsewhere.
Should this be a movieclip or buttons? Do I need framenames and actions to move the timeline?
Any help much appreciated oh wise ones...
Paul
