Control To Hide/ Show A Layer As A .swf
Hi There,
Is there a way to have a button to hide and show a layer as a published .swf??
I have a project that needs to have some text/ captions, which will be toggled on & off. All of these "captions" are graphics on one layer. There is voice-over as well.
Can a layer be masked?
I'm a rookie in flash, any help would be appreciated!!

Address URL In Browser.... Hide?
Hello,

Another quick question if I may. I'm using Dreamweaver to create a simple HTML site as an intro to my flash animation. Is there anyway
to link in Dreamweaver so that the address does not appear in the address URL bar on Explorer? Currently it is showing ...intro.html then ...flash.html etc as the user clicks around. I don't mind it showing the main url, just not the pages the user links too.

Any suggestion most welcome!

many thanks in advance.

[AS2] Is It Possible To End Movie Or At Least Hide It In Browser When It's Done?
Because of SEO considerations I am trying to use flash as little as possible in my site.

I need it though for uploading files. I like to have an accurate progress bar and I find flash is great for this.

Anyway once my file is uploaded, successfully, I would like the flash to go away (either exit or hide itself) and reveal an "Add To Basket" button underneath which is written in HTML.

Failing that, is there a way to get flash to change a CSS style of an object so I could have my Add To basket button hidden and then made visible when the flash tell it?

Thanks

Browser Detect To Hide A DIV Layer?
I am adding a transparent Flash window to an HTML page, so it appears that things are flying over the HTML page. (I'm NOT having a problem with this.)

Problem is that the transparent Flash only works in the following browsers:

Internet Explorer 3 or higher (Windows)
Internet Explorer 5.1 and 5.2 (Macintosh)
Netscape 7.0
Mozilla 1.0 or higher
AOL
CompuServe

So... I need a JavaScript that detects browsers and hides the DIV layer if the wrong browser is detected. I've found browser detection scripts, but can't figure how to modify them to hide a layer.

PROBLEM: I'm totally lame when it comes to scripting. Can some kind soul help me here? I'd be happy to send lots of great karma your way!

[F8] Frame Control Clip Show And Mouse Hide
Hi All,

I am trying to get something to work here - but I am failing in doing so!
In my fla I have one movieclip that is a custom cursor and is called PC_Cursor there is another clip too - this clip has 8 frames in it - so here is what I am trying to do - on seven frames I want the mouse to show and the PC_Cursor to have an alpha level of 0 - but on the one frame I want the reverse to happen - I want the PC_Cursor to have an alpha of 100 and the mouse to be hidden

How do I do that? Would it be with actions on each frame or would it be on the buttons that control the timeline of the eight frames?

I tried this:

PHP Code:



stop();
Mouse.show(true);
_root.PC_Cursor._alpha  = 0;




on each of the seven frames and

PHP Code:



stop();
Mouse.show(false);
_root.PC_Cursor._alpha  = 100;




on the one frame - but this is very ropey and the mouse vanishes when it shouldn't or sometimes it shows the movieclip cursor and the actual cursor at the same time!!! :-(

Anyone see what I am doing wrong?

How Do I Control A Browser Window?
I have made a flash movie which, when put in a web window is too wide and therefore the viewer has to use the scroll bar at the base to view the full extent. However as this SWF movie is a menu and the viewer needs to be able to move back and forth I would like to know if anyone knows a way of automatically controlling the browser window to slide with the movie, so that the viewer is not left on a blank page?

I intend to finally publish the page with Dreamweaver but do not seem to be able to find out how to do this. Thanks in advance for any help. P.S. Is there a site like this for Dreamweaver?

Browser Buttons Control

Is it possible to control a browsers "back" button using Flash? Having created a movie with navigation I'm finding that people are hitting their browsers back button rather than the movie's back button - this, of course, has very different effects!

Control Browser From Projector/exe App?
I recently created a screensaver type app with flash (as3) which in one section you can click on the screen and it will bring up a window in a browser. I have it so that when this function is activated there is a fsCommand to make the app non-fullscreen and the browser come up. After a timer goes off the app goes back to full screen. the problem is that when the app goes back to full screen the browser stays up.

My question is simply this:

Is there any way to close a browser window, or actual browser app with a command from the running flash projector/exe?

I guess a second question also would be is there anyway to make my app invisible for a period of time until a timer tells it to go back to full screen?

thanks for any help

Browser Button Control
Flash MX, publishing for Flash 5: Is there a way to make the browser's back button just take you to the home page? I hate when I get stuck in someone's site like this, but I can't think of a way to control this problem. The only thing I can think of is a "gate" page that is just html with a link to the main movie. That way, when a user forgets to utilize the lovely navigation I so painstakingly designed and coded, they'll at least not be thrown out. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

[F8] Can I Control The Position Of A Movieclip In The Web-Browser
Hi
I have an index.swf file that has No Scale and fills the entire web-browser regardless of the screen's definition. I have 2 movie clips, one that I want to center to the middle of the web-browser and another that I want to align to the left top corner of the web-browser and stay there, again, regardless of the screen's definition.
Is this doable through actionscript? Or do I have to create separate *.swf's and define their position through html layers?
Cumps,
Tiago

So far, I have only been able to find code examples that include javascript that references a javascript function in the HTML that the file would be embedded in,,but this is a standalone player, so no HTML file..any idea if I can do this w/in the actionscript only or even reference a separate js file?

SWF Links And Control Of Browser Features?
Hi
In Dreamweaver you can control the size and features of the browser window that comes up when you hit a link. I like that you can make choices like whether the browser window has controls, or a scroll bar, etc.

I have a swf file placed in my index.html file (its the whole page).
Can links in an SWF also control the browser like dreamweaver can? Where do I find such options?

Thank you kindly!

Control Size Of New Browser Window
Hey, been awhile.

is there any way to control the size and appearance of a new browser window when using the getURL command? I'm using the line:

getURL("newpage.html",window=blank);

Opens a new window just fine, but I'd like it to open at a certain size and without the control and menu bars.

How Do U Control Swf Position W/browser Resize?
I have a (Dreamweaver 3) index page with a centered swf in 3 column/row table. The cells surrounding the swf have jpegs that create a seemless extension with the art in the swf.
Problem is that when I resize (shrink) the IE browser the swf begins to disappear towards the right and the jpegs in the left remain static and visible.
At 2advanced.com they have a site that keeps the swf focused even when the browser is shrunk. The swf just remains snug to the left of the browser window and the other background(?) images to it's left are hidden. This is what I need to do.

I'm using the old school Flash 5 and Dreamweaver 3.
Any suggestions will be immensely appreciated. Thank you.

How Do I Control An External Movie In A Separate Browser Window?
i am creating a website for a band, with an mp3 player. i want to be able to make an mp3 player that pops up in a separate browser window. the mp3 player would have a "playlist" that can be dynamically changed from the main window, which gives a list of albums & tracks to choose from. the model for this is Rhapsody's web interface.
so, how would i go about creating & dynamically changing the playlist (while music is playing) across multiple browser windows? the "playlist" would be an array of references to mp3s, i guess-- so is there a way to pass events & variables across the windows?

Mouse.hide Doesn't Hide Mouse
I am developing for a touchscreen and trying to hide the mouse cursor - completely.

But mouse.hide is not doing it's job.

I am trying to go to the Flash 5 standalone player format.

I created an actions layer in the main movie and just inserted the mouse.hide command into it but, alas, there is no hiding going on.

The windows cursors (win98) have all been given a blank icon

Which leaves flash only displaying a cursor (that stupid finger) when a button is pressed - the finger pops up and then instantly dissapears

But its ugly, and unnecessary for Touch Screen navigation

if anyone has any suggestions . . .

Sound Control With Pause Button As Well As Timeline Control
Hi there

I have a flash page, with a ambient track playing. I added a pause and play button. So you press the button then it stops, then you press it again then it plays...

So now i want to make it so that if you go to the 'WORK' page on the site, wich is on its own frame, and wich has different buttons linking to it, then i want the sound to switch off when i am on the work page as well.
So if the background ambient music plays, and you go to work then the sound switches off. Untill you switch it back on again
How is the best way for me to do that?

How Can I Control A Swf File Via RF Remote Control, Ala Powerpoint?
I have a Mac laptop and Honeywell RF remote that will control Powerpoint presentations. I'd rather make the presentations in Flash. The remote has three functions: last slide, next slide and blank screen. I have no idea what signals the remote sends for Powerpoint to read, but it must be pretty standard.

Does anyone know a way to code Flash so that it will respond to these commands the same as Powerpoint does... or is this a lost cause?

Thanx!

In short:

Look at the right scrollbar, how do I accomplish this?

The height of my site site is bigger than the Stage.height.
I could use a browser scrollbar via Java, but since I want to be free in design of every component I would rather use a flash scrollbar.
But how?
