Flash :: Scrollbar Tutorial Wanted

Wanted - Good Hot Spot & Hot Object Tutorial
I want some of my questions in my Football quiz to involve the user selecting objects instead of using radio buttons but I cannot find a tutorial.

I need the code for selecting an object, it will then change to show it has been selected and code to go in my 'NEXT' button so that it checks if the object selected is the correct answer. Anyone know a good tutorial you could send me to or can you put the code here.

Thanks a lot

Scrollbar Doesn't Work (tutorial: Object-oriented Scrollbar)
(tutorial --> object-oriented scrollbar: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=71).

I followed the tutorials instructions and this is the code that i have now:

import caurina.transitions.*;

var yOffset:Number;
var yMin:Number = 0;
var yMax:Number = sb.track.height - sb.thumb.height;

sb.thumb.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, thumbDown);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, thumbUp);

function thumbDown(e:MouseEvent):void
{
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, thumbMove);
yOffset = mouseY - sb.thumb.y;
}

function thumbUp(e:MouseEvent):void
{
stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, thumbMove);
}

function thumbMove(e:MouseEvent):void
{
sb.thumb.y = mouseY - yOffset;
if(sb.thumb.y <= yMin)
sb.thumb.y = yMin;
if(sb.thumb.y >= yMax)
sb.thumb.y = yMax;
var sp:Number = sb.thumb.y / yMax;
Tweener.addTween(content, {y:(-sp*(content.height-masker.height)),
time:1});
e.updateAfterEvent();
}

Does anybody see what's going wrong? I'm a beginner beginner, so all could think of to do is check if everything was typed correct. (i double checked instance names and code). But can't seem te get it to work, nothing happens when i preview swf.
No compilers errors and no syntax error. Tweener class is installed properly. PLEASE help me i've been looking for hours now.
If someone could help me, would be great!!

Sorry for my english, thank you for your time.

Scrollbar Tutorial?
I was wondering if anyone knew of a nice scrollbar tutorial?
I want to create a custom scrollbar, the UIScrollBar component looks quite nasty on my site. It doesn't match with the rest of the design.

I noticed that there was a tutorial for this here on kirupa. But I found that tut a bit difficult so if anyone has got another one I would like to give it a try!

So long friends

OO ScrollBar 2 Tutorial
I am a little confused. In this tutorial, in the ScrollBox class, lee has:

sb.addEventListener(ScrollBarEvent.VALUE_CHANGED, sbChange);

Why is the scrollbar listening for an event which is dispatched from it's own class? Shouldn't the ScrollBox class be listening for the event which is dispatched from the scrollbar and then take action accordingly? Just seems reverse from my logic, hope someone can clear it up for me.

Tutorial For Making My Own Scrollbar?
I'm developing a site in which I have a fixed content area. (My background image cannot repeat.) I originally thought I would just put together some sort of DHTML script with a few layers and some onMouseOver effects. However, I've decided it would simply look and function much better if I did it in Flash. The problem is, I don't know a thing when it comes to Flash. I was hoping to find a tutorial so that I could create my own scrollbar. I'd like this scrollbar to emulate your standard windows scrollbar and be linked to an external .txt file.

Is all of this possible for a newbie?

Custom Scrollbar Tutorial
hi everyone
i'm new, and i recently completed the first part of the custom scroll bar tutorial and the file i created had a scroll bar which was out of alignment (it scrolled but started from the middle while the content started at the top). i spent a while comparing the finished source file and the one i had created. and i realised that the "registration" of the components was different. (i think it is called registration).

anyway, to cut a long story short, i automatically had the symbols with the "little cross thingy" in the centre, not the top right.

i originally began the thread to ask for help but then later realised that it was quite easy to fix, just move the graphics around within the symbols.

anyway, i'm not sure who writes the tutorials but i just think that they could also remind the viewer to make registration correct.

Simple Scrollbar Tutorial
Ok first of all I'd like to thank Kirupa for a great tutorial!

This has to do with the Simple Scrollbar Tutorial .

My problem is that, when I add a dynamic textbox into the content mc, it won't show up. Any idea what the cause might be, and if so, what is the fix?

Thanks!

Simple Scrollbar Tutorial
So i did the kirupa tutorial on simple scrollbar. It works until i extend the flash doc size so that the scrollbar mc is no longer at the top. i imagine this means that the scroll face and the content are not synchronized, but i dont know what changes to make so that they are. I found this problem as i wanted to integrate this scroll bar into a site,

any help would be awesome
thanks

Problem Following Scrollbar Tutorial
Hi all,

I'm an experience programmer, but I'm pretty new to flash.

http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=71
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=72

I've been following along and learning with some of the tutorials, but I can't quite seem to get the scrollbar to work right. I've written the code in object oriented classes and linked the classes to the library elements, but I am getting an error:

"1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: ScrollBox."

When I remove the linkage to the ScrollBox and just leave the ScrollBar linkage, the scrollbar works great (moves and everything), but the the content of course doesn't scroll.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure it's one of those stupid mistakes, but I've spent way too long on it and I'm not seeing it.

Thanks,
Dan

-Has a custom interface (not the built-in one from flash)
-Includes the bar in the middle
-Continues sliding when the buttons are held down

If anyone could help me out on creating this, I'd appreciate it. I'm using MX 2004.

Scrollbar Tutorial, Source Isn't Functioning...

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx20..._scrollbar.htm
But it doesn't seem to work for me when I open it on my computer and try exporting the .swf. I've noticed this problem before when doing another tutorial ... basically, everything seems like it's working except the draggable scrollbar doesn't appear.
I'm sure there's a perfectly simple explanation for this, but I'm kind of a newb with flash. Anyhow, please help. Thanks.

Tutorial: Simple Custom Scrollbar
I recently created a simple custom scrollbar using the Flash Tutorial found on this site. My scrollbar (and the one in the tutorial) works fine except when there is enough information (for example: text) inside the movie clip contentMain to make its height greater than 1640. Any information that extends below H= 1640 appears invisible when one tests the movie.

Since I am not very versed in ActionScript, I was wondering if any of you who are could check to see if this is an application bug or a problem with the script in the tutorial.

Thanks.

Anyone Know Of A Tutorial For A Scrollbar That Snaps Content...
Hey guys.. I'm looking for a scrollbar or tutorial for a scrollbar that snaps it's scroll content to various y positions... I have a news list and each item is in a 50px high box, so when I scroll I'd like them to always show exactly 4 items at all times.. so when srolling if you release the scrollbar with an item half in view it'll round it's y position and either snap it up or down into position. Does that make sense? I know I've seen them out there.. yet surprisingly all of my searches turned up empty. Maybe I need better keywords.

Thanks!

MgPePe`s ScrollBar Tutorial Question
i have just followed this great tutorial (cheers mr. mgPePe) and it works fine...however when i tried to use it inside my movie, inside an mc on the _root timeline the hit test doesn`t work. the mask and the bar resize are working but i get no movement. i have triple checked instance names and tried to change the path of scroll_root, but nothing seems to work...any ideas please??
btw here is the code..
cheers in advance (again)

Code:

var scroll_root:MovieClip = this;
var mouseDownDrag:Object = new Object();
var mouseMoveDrag:Object = new Object();
var mouseUpDrag:Object = new Object();

// Set some variables
sizeMask = mask._height;
sizeContent = content._height;
proportion = sizeMask/sizeContent;
scrollBar._height = proportion*sizeMask;
topLimitScroll = mask._y;
bottomLimitScroll = mask._y + mask._height - scrollBar._height;
topLimitContent = mask._y+mask._height-content._height;
bottomLimitContent = mask._y;
content.setMask(mask);

// If the content is too small and doesn't need to be scrolled on the screen,
// we dont want the red Scrollbar to appear
if (sizeContent<=sizeMask) {
scrollBar._visible = false;
}
mouseDownDrag.onMouseDown = function()
{
if (scrollBar.hitTest( scroll_root._xmouse, scroll_root._ymouse, false))
{
// Figure out the difference between mouse and top point of red
scroll_root.difWithMouse = _ymouse - scrollBar._y;
scrollBar.startDrag(false, scrollBar._x, scroll_root.topLimitScroll, scrollBar._x, scroll_root.bottomLimitScroll);

// Change the way it looks
//scrollBar.gotoAndStop(2);

Mouse.addListener(mouseMoveDrag);
Mouse.addListener(mouseUpDrag);
scroll_root.onEnterFrame = function (){
var scrollMovement = bottomLimitScroll - topLimitScroll;
contentMovement = Math.abs(bottomLimitContent - topLimitContent);
percentageMovement =Math.abs(scrollBar._y - topLimitScroll)/scrollMovement;
var finale = bottomLimitContent - contentMovement*percentageMovement;
content._y = content._y - (content._y - finale)/3;
}
}
}
mouseMoveDrag.onMouseMove = function()
{
// You can put something here, but it is not required
}
mouseUpDrag.onMouseUp = function()
{
scrollBar.stopDrag();

// Change back to normal look
//scrollBar.gotoAndStop(1);

delete scroll_root.onEnterFrame;
Mouse.removeListener(mouseMoveDrag);
Mouse.removeListener(mouseUpDrag);
}
Mouse.addListener(mouseDownDrag);

Simple Custom Scrollbar (Tutorial Error)
Hi. I've spent a lot of time through these tutorials the past year. I was working on the Simple Custom Scrollbar tutorial today and noticed an actionscript error. However I don't know how to fix it. If anyone knows the answer I'm curious.

The Problem:

The exmaple on the tutorial page works fine. However when the scrollbar tutorial is completed the up arrow button automatically scrolls the movieclip all the way to the top. This happens even if the button is pressed just for a moment. I've checked the code many, many times (that's where I usually mess up) and the code is the same as the tutorial. So if anyone knows the solution to the code problem I'd be very grateful to know.

Thanks

How Do I Get Clear Text, In Scrollbar Content, From Tutorial?
i followed this guide: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm

On how to make a scrollbar (But i only want to use it for text).

The bar works perfect. But here is my problem.
If you look at my page http://www.datacomm.dk
you will see that the text below "Welcome" is perfect clear.
But the text inside my scrollbar area is Static Text, and isnt that clear..
Everytime i change the text inside the Scrollbar graphics, to Dynamic text, or Device font, it just dissapears. It only appears when i choose "Static Text".

Can anyone help mw with this, and get the same clear text, as in the "Welcome" box?

Thanks

Simple Scrollbar Tutorial And Dynamic Text
Thank you very much for providing the tutorials on this site. I have found them very helpful and easy to understand.
But now I have a problem.
I have worked through the simple scrollbar tutorial and got the scrolling text to work even when customising the scrollbar myself but my problem comes when I try to scroll dynamic text. Static works fine but the text area is blank in my movie if I scroll dynamic text. I want the text to be dynamic because I want to use CSS styling so I also worked through the Using CSS styling tutorial. This is fine on its own but when I combine the two, the text doesn't appear.
Before I upload my flash file for further help, I wonder if there is something very obvious that I am missing that I should have added or be doing (so obvious it isn't mentioned in the tutorials).
Thank you for you help
Lisa

Dynamic Text With Scrollbar Tutorial: Image Problem
Hi,

Thanks for the great tutorials! Ive followed the Dynamic text with scrollbar tutorial which has worked fine and I have intergated it into the site I am building.... The site is AS2 flash 8.

However the dynamic text needs to include images. I am able to successfully render simple HTML tags, but for some reason I am unable to include images using the <img> tag. Then to make things even muddier, when I run the site locally, the text wraps itself around the missing/invisable images, but when I run the site online it does not.

I cant think what the problem is.

Thanks in advance,

Julian

Loading Extrenal Text Into The Custom Scrollbar Made In Kirupa's Tutorial.
Well, that title was a mouthful...
Anyways, I've tried five different tutorials for laoding external text now, and none of them work with the custom scrollbar.

What i currently have is a dynamic textbox in the content movieclip in the scrollbar.
the code for the frame is:

Code:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
myText.text = this.content;
}
myData.load("menucontent.txt");
And yes, the textbox has a instance name, and a variable name.
Does anyone know what I'm donig wrong?

Thanks in advance for your time...
