Flash :: How To Access Movie Into Button ?

[Q] Disabling Parent's Button Access For Child's Button Access
Hi All,

Havent been to the forum in a long time due to an enduring school term
now that I have gotten back into it, I got into a slight problem

How do I disable the parent's onRelease attributes so that I can allow the child's onRelease function to run . It is a menuSystem where the parent shows first then the subMenu mc are attached to the main Menu.

I tried mc.enabled = false, but this disables the child button actions as well
I tried mc.onRelease = null; which doesnt seem to work
I tried delete this.onRelease BUT maybe cause of syntatical errors, theres no response

Thanks all

Button._focurect Disables Also Button Keyboard Access
I'm trying to make my Flash movie keyboard-accessible.
It's a search engine control panel, with a drop list for categories, a textfield and a Search button.

I have set a "halo" effect to enhance the GUI element currently under focus, for both keyboard and mouse interaction.

Everything works fine if I leave the _focusrect active, but it's really ugly and I want to eliminate it.

Unfortunatelly when I set Button._focusrect = false, the buttons recieve focus but are not "pushed" when I press the spacebar (I tried to add Key-specific triggers to a button, but that doesn't work either).

Does anybody know how to help this?

p.s. I already set all the tabIndex stuff...

Access Dynamic Mc's With A Button
I am having the hardest time trying to figure out how to access a group of dynamically created movieclips with a button that is outside of where they are defined. here's the code I am working with.

Code:
masterHouse = _root.housesHolder.multiHolder.attachMovie("multicom_house", ["multicom"+j], _root.housesHolder.multiHolder.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:mX[j], _y:mY[j]});
housesHolder.multiHolder being the containing clip that the dynamic houses are placed in. I need to do something like:
button.onPress = function() {
houses.slideTo(x,y);
}

Any help would be great. Thanks!

Access Mc Inside Button?
MX 2004 Pro:
I need to change the color of an MC instance (Test1) that is on the UP frame of a button (btnTest).

ActionScript Code:
trace(btnTest.Test1._width)
returns "undefiend". But when I turn the button into a MovieClip:
ActionScript Code:
trace(mcTest.Test1._width)
returns a correct value, meaning, I can access Test1.

Is there a way to access MC instances inside a button?

Button Can't Access Its Variables?
Alright so: I created an instance of a button that I created, and in the code for that instance I put

on (press) {
trace (this._name);
}

I've also tried with this._x and this._y, and it's convinced that they don't exist because it always prints just a return in the output window.... what is going on? Why can it not access its own properties?

Access To A Button's Variable
I have a button who's instance is "btn_free"
I am assign a variable in my button.
Do I have access to this value outside "btn_free" or what is the best way to access a value that is assigned in a button's action script

actionscript in my button, “btn_free” that is assign a value to mystring.

PHP Code:

on (press) {
     var myString:String;
    trace("I am at button btn_free");
    this.myString = "value from button btn_free"
}

In my layer1:frame1 I have the following actionscript

PHP Code:

btn_arc.onPress = function() {
    trace("hello from btn_arc")
    trace(btn_free.myString);
}

where I am attempting to get the value from the “btn_free”

PHP Code:

trace(btn_free.myString);

This however, does not work.... btn_free.myString I get a undefined error.

Access Button Inside Movieclip
Hey Everyone,

I am not that familiar with Flash yet, so I have trouble accessing a button inside a Movieclip that I have loaded by using the loadMovie command.
code:
createEmptyMovieClip("menu",1);
menu.loadMovie("menu1.swf",1);

menu.button.onPress = function(){
trace("works");
}

My movie loads fine and my button has the instance name button. So that should not be the problem.

Thanks for any help,
Andy

Access A Button Within A ScrollPane (pain)
I am trying to access a button that I have in a scrollPane to change it's active state. This happens on a cuepoint in my video. Here is my script..
------
listenerObject = new Object();
listenerObject.cuePoint = function(eventObject) {
if (eventObject.cuePointName == "cp_2") {

_root.TitlesMC.button2_btn._visible = false;

trace("Cuepoint Passed");
}
};
myVideo.addEventListener("cuePoint", listenerObject);
-----

My scrollPane points to a movie clip called "TitlesMC" which contains a button called "button2_btn". I can't seem to access it.

If I put a button out in the main movie and point to it there, it works great - but the button in a movie clip within the scroll pane - can't access it.

Thanks -

AttachMovie/button Access Problem
Hi I'm trying to do something seemingly simple but it is proving really frustrating.

Basically I have a movie that fades in an image (mc_splash). Once you click on the image it moves that image off the screen and uses attachMovie to load a movie clip (mc_thumbs) with has a bunch of other movie clips (mc_thumb_00001 - mc_thumb_00015) which act as buttons (rollovers, onReleases etc.)

The problem is that if i have the attachMovie in the onRelease function of mc_splash I can not access my buttons in mc_thumbs unless i put the button functions in mc_thumbs.

However if i take the attachMovie function out of the onRelease function and just have it load at the opening of the movie it works fine with the button functions in the root.

Working:
Code in root:

Code:
_root.mc_splash.onRelease = function() {
_root.mc_splash._x = 5000;
_root.attachMovie("mc_thumbsLoader", "mc_thumbs", 1);
_root.mc_thumbs._x = 458;
_root.mc_thumbs._y = 36;

}

Code in mc_thumbs:

Code:
var thumbsPath = this;

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOver = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(2);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOut = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(1);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRelease = function() {
trace ("hitting mc_thumb_00001");
_root.attachMovie("mc_imageLoader", "mc_imageLoader_00001", layerDepth);
_root.mc_imageLoader_00001.loadMovie("skin/original/images/portfolio/00001.jpg");

}

Not working:
Code on root:

Code:
_root.mc_splash.onRelease = function() {
_root.mc_splash._x = 5000;
_root.attachMovie("mc_thumbsLoader", "mc_thumbs", 1);
_root.mc_thumbs._x = 458;
_root.mc_thumbs._y = 36;

}

var thumbsPath = _root.mc_thumbs;

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOver = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(2);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOut = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(1);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRelease = function() {
trace ("hitting mc_thumb_00001");
_root.attachMovie("mc_imageLoader", "mc_imageLoader_00001", layerDepth);
_root.mc_imageLoader_00001.loadMovie("skin/original/images/portfolio/00001.jpg");

}

Working but useless:
Code on root

Code:
_root.attachMovie("mc_thumbsLoader", "mc_thumbs", 1);
_root.mc_thumbs._x = 458;
_root.mc_thumbs._y = 36;

_root.mc_splash.onRelease = function() {
_root.mc_splash._x = 5000;

}

var thumbsPath = _root.mc_thumbs;

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOver = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(2);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRollOut = function() {
thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.gotoAndStop(1);
}

thumbsPath.mc_thumb_00001.onRelease = function() {
trace ("hitting mc_thumb_00001");
_root.attachMovie("mc_imageLoader", "mc_imageLoader_00001", layerDepth);
_root.mc_imageLoader_00001.loadMovie("skin/original/images/portfolio/00001.jpg");

}

I just don't understand why having the attachMovie in an OnRelease cause the it to stop working.

Any help would be great, thanks,

Eric

Trying To Access A Dynamic Button Within A Movieclip

How To Access Components Of Button Symbol?
Hi all,

I'm new in flash and I would like to get a feedback about how accessing the components (like a Label component) included in a button Symbol. The situation is the following:

Step #1: I would like to to create a dynamic button. This button should be composed of a label component (Label with instance name "vTitle"). I converted this label as "button" symbol (instance name "vButton". therfore, I'm now able to define the different appearances of my button depending on the event (mouse over, down...).

Step #2: Next, I would like to dynamically set the value of my label depending on a parameter called "title". I converted my button as "Movie Clip" and added the parameter "pTitle" as String.

So, now, I have defined what I can call the "context" of my object. Next step if the coding of the event script. When I go to the action section of my "Movie Clip" and click on the "Target' button to locate the "vTitle", I can browse to the button, but not to the title included in this button. Therefor, I checked the options in the "Accessibility" panel of the button and did not found any "Make child accessible" for this kind of symbol! So I do not understand why it is not permit.... :(

Can anybody help me about accessing the internal label of my button symbol ?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Tanguy

Access Button Inside Of Loaded Swf
Hello to all! So, i'm loading a swf (image gallery) that fills the entire index movie's stage. I created a "close" button in the swf. So, you're inside the index movie and click gallery. It loads on top of the entire index movie so it appears as an image gallery with a solid background, none of the index elements are seen, but exist behind the gallery swf. What i want to do is access the close button in the gallery swf so when it's clicked, it closes and the index stage is being viewed again. Ideas? Helpful Hints? Are the Lakers going win?

Dynamic Button Access Trouble
I've tried searching, but I can't find a specific answer to this question. Say I have a button on the stage with the instance name "menuButton" along side a number of buttons. Now say I want to dynamically add a listener to this button using a variable instead of hardcoding:

menuButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, someFxn);

when I try:

var dynamicName:String = "menuButton";
dynamicName.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, someFxn);

I get :

TypeError: Error #1006: value is not a function.

How can I achieve this with a variable? I've tried other data types, and all throw errors. Should I give in and do an epic if/else chain?

Thanks much in advance!!

How To Access The Text Property In A Dynamic Button?
Flash 8 Issue.

I have a button that has a text object in it (aside from some graphic of course). I am trying to set the text dynamically and I can't seem to get it to work because I don't seem to know the proper class to call:

btn = _root.attachMovie("navButton_symbol", "myButton"+i, i);
btn._y = i *50;
btn.text = "please work this time!";

The buttons do render properly and all that other stuff works.

On the button library object the text is set to dynamic and has the name of btnLabel. But I have tried addressing it as btn.btnLabel.text and btn.btnLabel and all of the other permutations I can think of. As you can see the buttons have dynamic names so this is presenting me with this challenge. What is the proper way to address this text field so I can set the text to a value that I need?

btn.btnLabel.text = "I am totally lost!";

I tried to do this with an init object, but that seems to lead me to the same dead end.

Can't Access Main Timeline As With Imbedded Button
I have a an FLA with a movie clip that has a button inside it. Is there something special I need to do in order for that button to activate the action script in the main timeline correctly?

All of my other buttons & movie clips work fine. It's just my movieClip/Button combo symbol that won't work.

Here's the .FLA. the button I'm referring to is in the top right corner.

FYI, all of the audio is loaded externally from the library in the .AS. So, to have any sound, you'll need the 2 .mp3's as well that in this directory.

http://dev.sheridan.edu/Test/Sound/

Code:

this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcSoundHolder",this.getNextHighestDepth());
var sndAudio:Sound = new Sound(mcSoundHolder);
sndAudio.loadSound("Sound/slow_part.mp3", true); // True = Streaming, False = Event Clip totally downloaded

this.createEmptyMovieClip("mcSoundHolder",this.getNextHighestDepth());
var sndAudio2:Sound = new Sound(mcSoundHolder);
sndAudio2.loadSound("Sound/Voice.mp3", true); // True = Streaming, False = Event Clip totally downloaded

// ============ If false, then you have to check if the sound clip is loaded or not

sndAudio.onLoad = function(bSuccess:Boolean):Void {
if (bSuccess) {
this.start();
this.setVolume(100);
}
};

sndAudio2.onLoad = function(bSuccess2:Boolean):Void {
if (bSuccess2) {
this.start();
sndAudio.setVolume(20);
this.setVolume(100);

}
};

var nInterval:Number = setInterval(checkProgress, 1000);
var nInterval2:Number = setInterval(checkProgress2, 1000);

function checkProgress():Void{
var nPercent:Number = Math.round((sndAudio.getBytesLoaded()/sndAudio.getBytesTotal()) * 100)
trace ("Stuff =");
trace (nPercent);
}

function checkProgress2():Void{
var nPercent2:Number = Math.round((sndAudio2.getBytesLoaded()/sndAudio2.getBytesTotal()) * 100)
trace ("Stuff2 =");
trace (nPercent2);

}

// Production Handlers

// none

// Testing Handlers

mcPlay.onRelease = function():Void {
sndAudio.start(sndAudio.position/1000)
sndAudio.setVolume(100);
};

mcPause.onRelease = function():Void {
sndAudio.stop();
sndAudio2.stop();
};

mcPlayVoice.onRelease = function():Void {
sndAudio2.start(sndAudio2.position/1000);
sndAudio.setVolume(20);
};

mcStopVoice.onRelease = function():Void {
sndAudio2.stop();
sndAudio.setVolume(100);

How Can External Files Have Access To Button Class?
I have an interface that creates two buttons...

In the interface class:

Code:
private var nextButton_mc:NextButton;
private var prevButton_mc:PrevButton;
In the main constructor:

Code:
nextButton_mc = new NextButton;
nextButton_mc.x = 486;
nextButton_mc.y = 490;
addChild(nextButton_mc);

prevButton_mc = new PrevButton;
prevButton_mc.x = 406;
prevButton_mc.y = 490;
addChild(prevButton_mc);
I then load external files into a container MovieClip and each of those files is supposed to be able to communicate with the
buttons like this:

Code:
Interface._container.setNextButton();
(I use static vars to reference the interface movie)

This all works if I place copies of the NextButton and PrevButton inside each Library of the external files; otherwise it fails because the external files can't see these classes. What's a way to do this without adding the buttons to each and every Library? Am I stuck creating an external class file like NextPrevious.as?

1087 Error From Trying To Access A Button Inside A Symbol
Hey All,

I've been getting a 1087 error with regards to my attempts to access a button inside a symbol which is being referenced by a ScrollPane Component.

The basic idea is for the user to click a button in the symbol scrollable symbol, that in turn affects a movie clip outside the symbol and ScrollPane. The code I am using is as follows.

Code:
// infoPaneMC is the movie clip outside the ScrollPane that I am trying
// to activate. In a perfect world, pressing the button below would
// cause it to slide into frame (or halfway through its timeline)
infoPaneMC.stop();

// scrolltest is the movie clip symbol referenced by the ScrollPane
// 1800_R_Button is the button inside scrolltest
scrollTest.1800_R_Button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,startClip);
function startClip(e:MouseEvent) {
infoPaneMC.play();
}

// This code is what I am using to close infoPaneMC by playing it
// out from its halfway mark
infoPaneMC.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,startClip2);
function startClip2(e:MouseEvent) {
infoPaneMC.gotoAndPlay("infoPanePause");
}
However I keep getting the following error:

1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program.

The line it refers me back to is:

Code:
scrollTest.1800_R_Button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,startClip);

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Target/access Button Inside (attach) Movieclip
Hi everyone,
im new to flash and actionscript v2.
would be great if i could get a shove in the right direction.

im trying to get a button working that is inside a movie clip.
the movieclip is given a linkage identifier (container_id and name as container_mc) as it is inside the library and not on the stage.
The movie clip has three buttons inside it.
I have the following code on each of the button

Code:
_root.containerBase_mc.scrollUp_btn.onRelease = function() {
trace("scrol upn");
};
this.containerBase_mc.scrollDown_btn.onRelease = function() {
trace("scrol down");

};
this._parent.containerBase_mc.close_btn.onRelease = function():Void{
trace("close me");
}
as you can see my desperate attempts to get this working
none of the trace actions work...
any help?
thank you.

SharedObject -how Do I Access It From Another Movie?
I have created a Shared Object in "a.swf". I can read and write to it -no problem, but how do I access it from a movie "b.swf".

If in "b.swf" I use:

so = sharedobject.getLocal("savedPrefs");
myTextfield.text=so.data.thevar;

...Nothing happens!

Or when trying to indicate the path to the movie which created the SharedObject:

so = sharedobject.getLocal("savedPrefs","/dir/a.swf");
myTextfield.text=so.data.thevar;

-same result.

Anybody got this to work?

PS:
Again, I need to access my SharedObject not from the movie I created it in but from a DIFFERENT one.
Any help would be appreciated

Access External Movie
Hi:

I would like to set height after I load an external movie into a movie clip.

For example,

this.body_mc.loadMovie("body_about.swf");
_root._height = this.body_mc._height;

Does these make sense?
I always get height as 0, because body_mc is an empty movieClip.

Can anyone help me on how to access the body_about.swf height as soon as loaded the movie into the empty movie clip? Any suggesstion?

Thanks

SharedObject -how Do I Access It From Another Movie?
I have created a Shared Object in "a.swf". I can read and write to it -no problem, but how do I access it from a movie "b.swf".

If in "b.swf" I use:

so = sharedobject.getLocal("savedPrefs");
myTextfield.text=so.data.thevar;

...Nothing happens!

Or when trying to indicate the path to the movie which created the SharedObject:

so = sharedobject.getLocal("savedPrefs","/dir/a.swf");
myTextfield.text=so.data.thevar;

-same result.

Anybody got this to work?

Again, I need to access my SharedObject not from the movie I created it in but from a DIFFERENT one.
Any help would be much appreciated

How Do I Access A Movie From Another Movie (class?) ?
Hey all,

I really need some help about this. AS3's driving me crazy O.o
ok, please see the attached image. This is basically my setting (in reality more complicated, but it's basically something like this).

So based on my image, i am trying to get paul_mc to talk to stef_mc. How do I do this??

All the script on paul_mc is found in a class which is something like this (simplified):

----------------------------------------------
package {

import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

public class cableListItem_mc extends MovieClip {

public function cableListItem_mc() {
addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, swap);
}

private function swap(e:MouseEvent):void {

// talk to stef here

}
}
}
------------------------------------------------

Thanks a lot in advance...

Need To Use A Movie Clips Name To Access A Variable Help
ok..this is hard to explain, but ill try and simplify it.

ive got 3 mcs- mc1, mc2, mc3
ive got 3 variables- mc1_x, mc2_x, mc3_x (all defined in frame 1 of the main timeline)

i need to use the EXACT same actionscript with each mc. yet, each mc needs to grab the value of the variable that matches up to it (mc1 needs to access mc1_x)

so, somehow i need to get the name of the movie clip, append some characters to it, and have that whole mess be the actual variable that is defined in frame 1 of the main timeline.
