Checkbox To Control MC On Click?
Hi All - I am struggling away here with components, a newbie with actionscript. I have a checkbox, instance name "mySail". I have two radio buttons rd1 and rd2. When the user clicks on the mySail check box, I want the radio buttons to become "active" AND I want another MC ( a design element with instance name of "sailOutline") to gotoAndPlay. If this interests anyone then I have another function problem too......... I have a radio button that I want to control the color of an MC. That is no problem using the setRGB, but I need the radio button to set the RBG to the RGB color of another MC. I guess I need to "getRGB" from the one MC, then when the radio btn is clicked have it retrieve the getRGB value first, then setRBG from that value.........I don't know where to begin with that one! Thanks for any help you can offer, Jac

Click On Checkbox Of The Videos You Want To See Combined
So here is the problem I have to figure out and I can't even think of where to start.
I'm going to have 2 columns with 3 videos in each one.
The user can check on one of each of the videos from each column and then see them combined into one streaming video.
I figure I can make an flv of every combination possible. I just need to figure out how to go which video depending on which boxes you've clicked.
Any suggestions? Are there any true flash Macgyver out there?

Checkbox Movie Control
Hello I have asked this question before and I have not been able to get any results. If you know how to do this please let me know.
I have created a movie in Flash that has 30 keyframes. I have also programmed a play and stop button which use the following code:
on (press){
_parent.slc.play();
}
Here is the question… I would like to provide the user with the ability to check a checkbox that will allow the movie to stop at a particular frame after the user has presses play.
For instance I have three checkboxes
1 stops at frame 5
2 stops at frame 15
3 stops at frame 25
If the user selects checkbox 1 and 3 then after the users presses play the movie will stop at frame 5 then the user will have to press a continue button to continue on with the movie playing over frame 15 and stopping at 25 then continuing on to the end of the movie. I have attached a fla. File that helps demonstrate my problem.
I hope this makes sense; I have been trying to do this for several days and can’t figure it out. I am a new coder so If you know the answer please give me some details.
Thanks

Can anyone give me any pointers? Some form of "make html do stuff from flash for slow people" tutorial link perhaps?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

Using Checkbox State To Control An Event
Can anyone tell me the best way to call an action/event from the state of a checkbox in Flash? It's not the onRelease/Press/etc.. funcitons that you would use for a button. And my attempts at grabbing the 'selected' state of the checkbox have failed miserably.
I am pretty sure I need to create a Listener object or something, but my head is spinning and I need a push in the right direction to get that started & understanding it. Any help would be appreciated. [/code]

Control Click
Hi all,
I would like to program a control-click feature in Flash. I want to be able to control-click on one of my existing buttons and produce a "hidden" feature/movie clip. I'm hoping this "control-click" can be used on both PC and MAC. I've searched on the forum but w/o much luck, and I'm not really sure what to search under. I've looked into the Context Menu aspect, but that's not what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any suggestions or know how I would incorporate such a trick? I'm assuming a lot of video game developers use this feature as well?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

External Mc Control On Second Click
Hello to Everyone,
External mc has loaded one more small mc which plays up to its stop, on the same button event another external mc is loading and that small mc is continuing play to its end. It works that way ok.
But whenever I click on the button again, it of course playing small mc from that same frame # I ordered earlier.
I understand there need to be some either counting or true/false statement. I tried if _framesloaded... unload. It does unload but without playing nicely as without if/else ...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Click To Activate This Control.. WTF?
Whats this about?
Anything in flash now, i have to click once before i can use it?
Is this from software i've installed, or is this a new dumbass windows update thats just as fooking stupid as the "IE has blocked this popup because i can"
Sites with flash menus have become a pain in the arrse.
If it is a windows update, they should ask people what they fooking want before doing stuff like this!
If its just some software i've installed. im an idiot.
Cheers all.

When I uploaded my web page which has a ".swf" file in it, the rollover effects in my Flash movie won't work.
Instead, a tool tip appears saying "Click to activate and use this control."
How do I get the .swf movie to load with all controls (objects with rollover affects) enabled from the start?
Thanks for your help.

Click To Activate And Use This Control
hi flashkit,
can anyone tell me why when i mouseover on a flash movie it gives me this message tooltip:

It never used to do this before but i was making some pages with javascript and this suddenly happened. I've scanned for a virus but i'm not infected.
Tks for your reply.

Click Here To Activate And Use This Control?
While using Internet Explorer (PC, version 6.0.2900.2180) on some computers, and hovering the mouse over any Flash element, I get a small balloon message next to the cursor that says:
"Click here to activate and use this control." On those same computers, it also takes two clicks to make the flash button or whatever, run. And, while the cursor is over the element, the element gets a thin highlighting border around it (even if hovering a non-link portion of the flash movie).
I also noticed that, while using other pc computers-also running the same version of I.E. and Windows XP-the message doesn't appear and only requires a single click to activate any button on that flash element.
I notice this on many, many other sites, so it's not my server. On some other sites, it doesn't happen.
This doesn't happen in Firefox or anything else. I haven't been able to test this on Macs.
Does anyone recognize this? The site I'm working on is:

Any help is appreciated.

Click To Activate Control
Hi,
i placed my first ever swf within the PHP page and when i access to webpage via my browser, it asks me to click on the control to activate it.

how can i do to avoid such issue ? i mean to avoid user to click on the flash, to make the flash animation react normaly.
thanks a lot,

Click To Activate Control
Why do I get a popup upon arriving at my page that says " Click to activate control". It doesn't allow the button that is designed with a rollover effect to work until I first click somewhee on the page. This is making me have to double click every button to get the action I am asking for from it to work.
I am using explorer version 6. However, when I use another users firefox brouser I do not see this message " Click to activate control", it works as I intended it to.
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?
'Click To Activate And Use This Control'
I've only completed an 8 week evening introductory course to Flash so please forgive my ignorance.
When I import .swf files into my Website they are all showing the message 'Click to activate and use this control' even when there is no interactivity built into the file. How do I prevent this from happening?
Also the buttons all require two clicks to navigate to the hyperlink which some people are associating with the buttons not working - how do I resolve this problem?
Many thanks

'click To Activate And Use This Control'
Hi...
Microsoft released an update to Explorer in February 2006 that causes a Flash movie embedded on a HTML page to show a box around it and a popup text that reads 'click to activate and use this control'.
I've looked at the tech notes from Microsoft and Adobe, and also downloaded the latest fixes / updates for Flash and Dreamweaver that are supposed to fix this, but I am still struggling to implement this on all the other websites.
Does anyone know a quick plain speaking fix that doesn't go around the swings and roundabouts, but just works?
Thanks in advance...

Anyone got a work around for this yet? It looks dreadful.

VCR Control With Timer And Click To Next Screen
Hi, I'm having some dificulty compsing these few scripts to work together.
I have a "Start" button, "VCR control" with a built in timer and a button that allows you to goto the next screen in the movie.
I can't get the "Start" button to change the "Play" button from "Play" to "Pause" look on the VCR control. But if I start with clciking the Play button on the VCR control it works fine.
The other problem I have is the "Next Screen" button I need to have work dynamically depending where you are in the movie.
And finally the timer has to work with the time line and start when clicking the start button.
I would appreciate anyones help if they can.
Thanks :-)

Need Idea For One-click Sound Control
I am planning on making a speaker button for my site, where on the first click the background music would stop and the icon would change to a certain shape, on the second click all sound effects will stop (mute all sound?), and button would change to another shape, and on final click everything will be back on again.
I am thinking about using a variable to keep track of the stage of the button, so like on each click do a +1 to the value, and if the var is over 2 then change the var back to 0. Do you think this will work? And I am thinking about putting the background music in it's own movieclip. Not too sure how to go about with the sounf fx on buttons and stuff though...
EASY FIX For Click To Activate This Control
There are three parts to fix:
1. An external JavaScript file
2. An onload Function
3. A document.write for those using a script to determine if the browser can play flash.
If you are using a browser/flash sniffer script, place this after the closing object tag:document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="ieflshupdt.js"></script>');This is the JavaScript for the external script 'ieflshupdt.js' :function fixFlash() {
theObjects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
for (var i = 0; i < theObjects.length; i++) {
theObjects[i].outerHTML = theObjects[i].outerHTML;
}
}Place this in the body tag:onload="fixFlash();"This is by far the easiest and most painless of the fixes and works with any browser using the microsoft ie engine.
Right Click To Control Main Timeline

My end goal is to right clcik on the SWF and have it move ten frames forward in the trimeline. Any recommendations on how to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Movie Control By Click & Drag
Hi all,
I’m trying to create some ActionScript that will control my movie. I wish this to work in the way that when a viewer clicks and drags from left to right over the button area the movie plays, when they stop dragging the movie stops playing and when the curser is click and dragged back in the other direction the movie reverses. I’m presuming this could be done by using the [_ymouse] Properties, however I’m finding it a bit beyond my actionScript ability.
Any help apreciated,
Phil

Control Two Functions On One Button Click
Hello,
first off, I am relatively new to actionscript 3.0. I was wondering if anyone knows how I can control two events on one (the same) button click. On click, the first function must jump the user to a particular frame label and at the same time trigger a second function which is a movie clip on that particular frame. I must note that the event listener is attached to an actual Button and not a movie clip.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Attach Code
//top navigation buttons
topNav1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, resources);
//top navigation function
function resources(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndStop("resources");
}
//movie clip which I want controlled by the event listener above.
function rev(myEvent:Event):void {
Tweener.addTween(newTach.needleNew, {rotation:180, time:.8, transition:"easeoutexpo", onComplete:tween2});
//I have code written below for onComplete however, I don't think it is relevant to post all of it.

Flash Detect - Click To Activate And Use This Control
Ok Ive been scratching my head on this problem for a while, well its really not a problem I guess its just what method works best.
Ive been reading about how flash 8 has a better method of detecting flash versions and flash in general. I have downloaded the flash detection kit from adobe im not really happy with all the code you need to inject, so Ive been using a script from http://blog.deconcept.com/flashobject/ seems to do everything i need but I was just wondering what others are using, I view many high end flash websites from some very highend compaines but it seems that you still need to double click on the flash in order for it function, thanks to Microsoft!!! Just wondering why so many websites are still not removing this restriction in thier flash?
