Flash :: Roll Over?

On Roll Over I Want An Mc To Expand Smoothly, And Then Shrink On Roll Off Back To It'
i used to have a cool component that helped me to do this. I'd prefer to do it with code, and have easing involved, rather than on the timeline.

Do you know of an efficient way to achieve this rather basic effect?

I'd ideally like to control the speed with a variable perhaps.

thanks.

How To Get A Custom Cursor When I Roll Over A Movie And Dissappear When I Roll Out?
I want to be able to have the cursor turn into a custom one when I roll over the movieclip and be able to turn back to the default cursor when I roll out of the movieclip.

I've tried looking up for tutorials and mucking around with ActionScript for a bit but so far it doesn't work the way that I want it to.

Help would be appericated

*Ooops. I forgot to mention that I'm using Flash 8

Controlling Movies W/ Button Roll Over/roll Off
I have a button that when rolled over sets a movie to play. The movie plays until a stop point. (some text fades up) Then when the button is rolled off of the it triggers the second half of the movie (text fades away).

However, when the button is rolled over and rolled off too quickly (before the movie reaches stop point?) the movie becomes stuck at that first stop point even though the mouse is off the button. (text remains stuck)

Maybe I can set the "stop" action in the movie to check whether the button has already been rolled off of already before stopping???

Please help!!!

On Roll Over I Have An Mc Follow The Mouse, But How Can I Have It Return On Roll Out
Basically, you roll over a piece of text, and it follows the mouse, using the following code.

onClipEvent (load) {
_x = this._x;
_y = this._y;
speed = 44;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_global.penthouse**** == 1) {
endX = _root._xmouse;
endY = _root._ymouse;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}
}

However, the problem is that when I roll off this thing, it is sort of snapping back to it's original position. I'm thinking there is a way to animate it back to it's original state, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Could you show me the way?

Thanks.

Button Inside Mc With Roll Over Roll Out Action
hi,

i have a button inside a movieclip. this movie clip has a roll over roll out action. the button is not working. what can i do?

Roll Over + Roll Out + Mouse Move = Problem?
Hi guys I have a problem I want to swap cursor after roll over on some object. so I did something like this:
Code:

private function cursorOn(e:MouseEvent):void{
      this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMove);
      Mouse.hide();
      Tweener.addTween(triangleCursor, {alpha:1, time:1, transition:"easeOutExpo"});
      addChild(triangleCursor);
      trace("on");
   }

   private function cursorOff(e:MouseEvent):void {
      this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMove);
      Mouse.show();
      Tweener.addTween(triangleCursor, {alpha:0, time:0.5, transition:"easeOutExpo"});
      trace("off");
   }

   private function onMove(eve:MouseEvent):void{
      triangleCursor.x = (mouseX -50);
      triangleCursor.y = (mouseY - 100);
      eve.updateAfterEvent();
   }

So the problem is when I move my mouse sometimes the rollOut event is fired but the wird think is that I am still Over my object and I am sure of it when i remove the MouseMove function everythink is fine, I know I had this issue long time ago but I dont remember how I deal with it. I will appreciate any advice.

Simple Roll Over/roll Out Tasks
hey im sure this is very easy for most people here, so i have a question. im trying to make a dropdown box in flash... now this is what i was using to experiment with so its incredibly simple... but i have one problem..

well, here's an overview before i go on.

i have scene 1. roll over a button and goes to scene 2 where a backdrop appears and 2 buttons. at the end of a very short, cheap animation, scene 2 ends with the command "Stop". if you roll the mouse off of it all, it goes back to scene 1 where it began.

the problem is, how i have it set up, i can't get to the buttons, and ive tried a few other ways, but ill have problems when i actually get to the buttons, it rolls out of the back area (onto the button) and that tells the movie to go back to scene 1.

i hope that made sense.... well here's the .fla file if anyone would be so kind as to help out. you can download and change it, whatever... i just want to figure a way to make it work (And if possible, keep it SIMPLE)

http://www.geocities.com/hit_j_rizzl...h/dropdown.fla

thanks a lot!!!! and if you could, it would be of GREAT help to get the solution back before tomorrow (thursday)

Roll Over & Roll Out Button Advice
I'm trying to do something which I imagined would be very simple... I was wrong! (I'm using MX)

I want to make a button which, when you roll over it, has a background fill that fades in, and when you roll out, the background fill fades out. The up state needs to be just text ("contact" for example) and I obviously don't want the button to reset on release. Can anyone give me advise?

I've tried doing this with and without AS and it never seems to work for me. I can get the fade-in and fade-out to work without AS, but then the button action doesn't work. I've seen this done on multiple websites and I can't figure it out for the life of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

Roll On Roll Of Button Blues
Hi can any one help? I have made a button that when rolled over 'shrinks' and when rolled off 'grows' all nice and smooth. I have done this with the following code:

on(rollOver){
_root.mc1.gotoAndPlay("grow");
}
on(rollOut){
_root.mc1.gotoAndPlay("shrink");
}

Now, I need this button when pressed to go to a certain frame number on the main stage, or another scene, I thought the code:

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(35);
}

would do the trick but it doesn't seem to work. I have made the button by converting the button to a movie and then placing that movie on the main stage. Any ideas would be greatlt appreciated.

Many thanks

It's Magic - I Can Roll Off And Roll On Something At The Same Time
I'm having troubles with a few event listeners. I have a movieclip which has 2 event listeners attached to it. One for move_over and one for move_out. When i roll over the movieclip, both events are triggered??? Why???

Advanced Roll Over And Roll Off Effects...
I want to be able to make a movie clip (that acts as a button) so the roll over effect finishes before the roll off effect is triggered. Like if a marker circles a button, i want the circling animation to stop before the roll off effects happens. Anyone know how to do this. Thanks.

Please anybody could help me or give me some suggestion.

I am trying (since days :-((( ) to get my menu roll in just as smooth as the way it rolls out, I have corrected the script, still it does not work the way I want.
Here the function script:

function menucontrol(nextmenu) {
switch (nextmenu) {
case 1 :
gotoAndPlay("product_out");
break;
case 2 :
gotoAndPlay("app_out");
break;
case 3 :
gotoAndPlay("serv_out");
break;
case 4 :
gotoAndPlay("prof_out");
break;
case 5 :
gotoAndPlay("onl_out");
break;
default :
//trace("no case tested true");
}
}

switch (closemenu) {
case 1 :
gotoAndPlay("product_in");
break;
case 2 :
gotoAndPlay("app_in");

gotoAndPlay("serv_in");
break;
case 4 :
gotoAndPlay("prof_in");

Roll Over/Roll Out Problem
I have a button issue, I have set up a sub menu and the buttons need to work as follows; on the off state and out state they are green(frame2) and on over and press they are orange(frame 3).
I have used the following code but when you roll out it stays orange. When I added the roll out command it over rides the press command.

It works fine apart from the roll out so I need help with that command. I haven't used an actual button fot this but a movie as I can't make the button stay orange when pressed.

Please help!

on(rollOver) {

_root.movie1._visible = true;
_root. movie1.gotoAndStop(3);
}

on(press) {
_root.movie1._visible = true;
_root. movie1.gotoAndStop(3);
}

Roll In - Roll Out Button
I have some script that is for a roll in - roll out button.
The problem is that it rolls in, but will not roll out.

I'm placing it on a MC rollover button (if that makes sense)
but I have have it placed in the middle of the main timeline, on a frame
that has script for disabling other buttons.

I am just curious wheather it is right for this.

O.K. here it is:
startFrame = 0;
movieclip.prototype.back = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
this.prevFrame();
// DELETES THE ENTERFRAME IF THE CLIP IS AT FRAME 1
if (this._currentframe == 1 | startFrame == 1) {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
CLIP.play();
}
}
}
button_mc.onRollOver = function() {
startFrame = 1;
CLIP.play();
}
button_mc.onRollOut = function() {
startFrame = 0;
CLIP.back();
}

Roll Over And Roll Out Problems
SO I don't quite grasp of roll outs. If you look at this site as an example
http://www.templatemonster.com/flash...tes/10117.html
As you rollover something it moves, and then when you roll out it moves back smoothly. Does anyone have a simple code or example I can see how the fla would look. I can adjust it to work for what I want but I am dont understand where I put the movie clip of the animation in the file
Thanks

Roll On Roll Off Animation
I want to create a simple movie. I have a black and white image that fades into colour. I have a movie clip called movie1. In that movie i have two images 1 in colour and 1 in black and white. Both images are in different layers. When you play the movie the black and white image fades out and the colour one fades in. Fairly basic. What i want to do is create the action that when some ones mouse over the image it plays so the colour image fades in but when they mouse off it fades back into the black and white image.

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Roll Over Not Working Within Another Roll Over
Hi,

I have created a roll over and attached it to a movieclip. I have then created another movie clip inside that and applied the same roll over. Only the first one works?

To explain further:

I have created a circle on the stage and turned it into a movieclip. I have then attached some code to it that bascially tells it to grow 10% larger when you roll over it. This works fine...

I then created another, smaller circle (and turned this into a movie clip) inside the movie clip and attached the same code to it. For some reason I cannot get the smaller circle roll over to work? Only the larger circle works each time. Is it possible to have a roll over work within a roll over?

Any help is really appreciated:-)

Roll Over, Roll Out Menu.
Hi i got an menu in flash on my website.

http://www.freewebs.com/mralucard/

And I got a bit of a small problem, when you move the mouse over "contact" and the to "designs" you see that the text just pops away, I want to make a motiontween of it.

So when you move the mouse of "contact" the text below it should fade away (or an other movement)

I hope you know what am talking about.

Here is how it works.

Button contact Actionscript =

"on (release) {
getURL("http://www.developingwebs.net", "input");
}

on (rollOver) {
submenu.gotoAndStop(2);
}"

With this action it loeads the MC submenu and it opens frame two there but also stops at frame two.

I hope you get it.

Roll Out, Roll Down Effect Help
Hi,

I'm trying to incorporate a "roll-out" effect. I have 3 projector screen images, each one progressing until the entire projector screen is laid out, but not sure how to create it. The ultimate effect I would like is to have the screen roll down. I tried both motion and shape tween between the images but don't quite get the effect I'm looking for. Esp with the shape tween, it repeats the image too much (because I "break apart" my image/mc). Any suggestions or links to tutorials or samples?

Thanks

On Roll Over Unload Movie X, On Roll Out Load Movie X.
On roll over unload movie X, on roll out load movie X.

I’ve got a button that when you “roll over” it he unloads a movie in a certain level; I’ve also got 4 movies that are loaded in the main movie. My question is: how can I have that same button with another action like “on roll out” load the previous movie that was unloaded.

thanks!!

If you have an image as a button, what is the best way to change that image on roll over?
I can go to another frame on roll over, that contains the image to change to..any better way than that?

Roll Over, Roll Out?
I am wondering how you have a 3 state button
for example you have its up mode ( which does nothing)
then over (ie. green fades to blue)
then on roll out it fades back to green.
I hope this example is clear.

at moment I loaded a buttons over state with a movie clip and put the action goto and play on the button,then it plays the roll out.
I figure there must be a better way.
Thanks in advance

Roll Out
OK, I've created a button and placed it at scene 1, frame 1. I've modified frame 1 with the action "stop". I've also modified the instance to "go to next frame on roll out"
At the next frame (scene 1, frame 2) I've place a movie. So far so good. When you mouse ooff the button, the new movie is called up. This works fine. Here's where I get lost. How do I get the movie in frame 2 to go to frame when when it's finished playing??

On Roll Over, On Roll Out
Dearest Flash Board,

I'm experiencing confusion while making some menu animations.
i have a button which i want to make light-up on mouse roll over and turn-off on mouse roll out.

an instance of this button is on the stage and its alpha is set to 20%. underneath it, is a movie clip called "light01". light01 has a stop in the first frame, but if told to play, lights up. then another stop. and if told to play, turns off.
i selected my button on the stage and entered this actionscript:
_________________________

on (rollOver) {
tellTarget ("light01play") {
}
}
on (rollOut) {
tellTarget ("light01") {
play();
}
}
_________________________

but it only lights up when i mouse on then mouse off.
and then, it only turns off when i mouse on then mouse off AGAIN.

also i get in the output window this message:
_____________

Target not found: Target="light01play" Base="_level0"
_____________

can anyone help me to get some skills?

Best Regards,
KQ

Roll Out ?
I am an application engineer for a building automation company and i am experimenting with flash in our web based control programs. I am not a newbie, however not a flash guru.

I am making a keyplan of a building 2 floors with 7 areas on the first floor and 3 areas on the second.
the keypan has to be pickable.
I began by making a bunch of gifs one with both floors then one of each area and i pasted them all on differnt layers in frame 1
so on frame 1 layer 2 i had first floor area A
now i made all these gifs of the areas button symbols.
My Plans are when you scroll over the area to have in scale larger
and when you scroll off to scale back down to size
My problem is i cant get it to scale back down to size

here is my coding

Layer 2 Frame 1
First Floor Area A symbol
on (rollOver) {gotoAndPlay(2);}

Layer 11 Frame 2
stop();
also Movie symbol of area scailing 200% larger

Movie Symbol 1
Frame 30 (end of movie clip)
Layer 1 stop();
Layer 2 on (rollOut) {gotoAndPlay("keyplan",3);}
where keyplan is what i named scene 1

Layer 11 Frame 3
Layer 1 stop();
Layer 2 gotoAndPlay("keyplan",1);

which should end the process, my command to frame 2 is working however not to frame 3, when i test the movie everthing works,
you see the keyplan, when your scroll over "area a" it enlarges, then when you scroll off it, it just dissapeares, and you cant scroll back to it anymore

if you have trouble understanding my the keyplan is temperarly up at www.boydbrothersservice.com/keyplan.html

thank you

Roll Over
hi, can anyone spot any errors with this script:
on(rollOver)
{
gotoAndStop("Scene 1",2);
}
on(rollOut)
{
gotoAndStop("Scene 1",1);
}

I'm using rollovers through the up,over,down,hit approach. I'm also having trouble getting that to work. The hit frame os overlapped by the button image and therefore the rollover never takes place.

Can I get some help with both of these problems?

Thank you.
