• Clickable button inside the movie clip symbol?

  I would like to know how I can have clickable buttons inside a movie clip symbol.
  
  
  Thank you.

  Your problem is mainly code compared to the location of objects location. When you start the file, the keys 1 to 8 are classified under code because they are visible, while the 9-11 thru buttons are not because they live in a non-current setting of the miniature timeline. When you switch to the side MORE things, these buttons is not any code assigned to them, and when you come back, the same is true for the first eight buttons because they were out of the picture and lost their connection to any code (the previous assignments have been already spent to frame 1 of the main timeline).

  What you should probably do is locate your button code for frames where the buttons in the thumbnail movieclip. In this way, their code is always where they are. The code of the keys 1 to 8 will be in frame 1 of the miniature clip and the code for 9 to 11 will be in frame 2. You need to change the code for the form:

  thumb1.onRelease = function() {}
  _parent.gotoAndPlay("1");
  };

  And you're going to do you a favor if you do not use the numbers of the labels.

• Images of iPod touch - volume of the .mov clips

  Hello

  When I use an iPod touch pictures, the .mov clips sound volume is too low, even if I turn as hard as possible in Final Cut. How can I get stronger?

  Thank you!

  Unfortunately, it really isn't that you can do. You could make a new project and put just the clips that need to be more strong in there, then set volume as loud as it goes, then export than as a video, and then import that new video in your regular project (except that it is strong this time) and you can increase the volume at maximum again. If all goes well, which should help. However, the quality may be slightly reduced.

• How to put a button * inside * a trigger

  Hi people.

  I was directed to a good tutorial on how to put a button inside a target in a composition, but for some reason that I am not able to do the same thing when I try to put a button inside a trigger.

  I want to do is to have the icon of the trigger to change a bit (just get bigger) when you ride on it.   But I'm having a hell of a time.   Anyone know a work around?

  Thank you!

  No workaround but functionaloty normal:

  1. Select the trigger.

  2. open the States Panel.

  3, select 'Normal' in the States Panel.

  4. click on the word "fill" in the control strip above.

  5. a dialog box will open. Here, select an image to fill the trigger.

  6. click on other States in the States Panel and complete relaxation with a different version of your image.

• Create a button in a movie clip for ipad

  I am trying to create a button in a clip for an ipad app (a button next to a slide show, the slide show page is a clip.
  This is the code that I have tried. Button = nextbutton, video clip = artworkmovie. I want just the button to advance the movie clip an image.

  nextbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, nextClickHandler);

  function nextClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  artworkmovie.nextFrame ();

  }

  It works very well from the scene, but if I have the button 'next' in the film 'artworkmovie' I get the error "Line19 1120 access of undefined property nextbutton. (Line19 is "nextbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, nextClickHandler);") How can I create a path to the button? I tried artworkmovie.nextbutton and that has not worked.

  Sorry for this one basic question and thank you for your help.

  artworkmovie.nextButton should work.  Make sure you have the name of button assigned to each keyframe in the movieclip.

• AS3: see the hide the elements of the movie clip, single button array.

  Hello and please forgive my Noobdity I teach myself AS3 and stuck on what are obviously the basics.

  I did the simple animations for years without using any AS3 at all, the time has come to take seriously.

  I read the daylights out of all reference documents Adobe now but I am stuck on this task.

  I have 4 objects of movie clip whose visibility I control with two buttons.

  First button, two of these visible clips and the other two will make visible = false

  For example: Mc1 and Mc2 > visible, Mc3 and Mc4 > visible = false

  The second button run the same function but in reverse

  Eg: Mc1 and Mc2 > visible = false, Mc3 and Mc4 > visible

  I've determined correctly or incorrectly reading endless and looking for a table should be the best way to do it.

  I may have to use the child feature add but * shrugs, I'm lost atmo

  I've been blunders on the code for the first of two simple buttons.

  I start slowly form a mindmap what should be done, but it's early days.

  Here is my code and please feel free to

  Last attempt tries to use the mouse on the trigger to control the visible state of the second two clips.

  var wcArray:Array = [myMovieclip1, myMovieclip2];

  var acArray:Array = [myMovieclip3, myMovieclip4];

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  internal _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans acArray)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible;

  }

  }

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, _wcComp);

  internal _wcComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans wcArray)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible = false;

  }

  }

  Currently run 1050 error: impossible to assign a value, not reference.

  The text in blue works with 2 clips of film acArray of course, where the attempt to use the mouse on.

  Any advice on the solution or the best method to implement would be greatly appreciated.

  For what you're trying to make a table is more complication than a solution, you have already divided in two arrays anyway probably due to this tax... and have two buttons to do isn't necessary, but you may already be knowing that since you have only code for one of them in any case.

  All you need is a button that activates the visible properties to their opposites.

  var array: Array = [myMovieclip2, myMovieclip3, myMovieclip1, myMovieclip4];

  myMovieClip1.visible = myMovieclip2.visible = false;  or the other two... depending on what initially as invisible

  btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  function _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans tableau)}

  Item.visible =! item.visible;

  }

  }

  LF, you must have two buttons to do the opposite, as you say, then clicking on buttons must end up affecting all the buttons, no not only one of the tables you have done.  If each button should do what you say, then you should not use the! operator since that can go the opposite of what you intend, so you must assign the desired state.

  var wcArray:Array = [myMovieclip1, myMovieclip2];

  var acArray:Array = [myMovieclip3, myMovieclip4];

  acComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _acComp);

  function _acComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans acArray)}

  Item.Visible = false;

  }

  for each {(var item2:MovieClip in wcArray)

  Item2.Visible = true;

  }

  }

  wcComp_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, _wcComp);

  function _wcComp(e:MouseEvent): void {}

  for each {(var point: MovieClip dans wcArray)}

  Item.Visible = false;

  }

  for each {(var item2:MovieClip in acArray)

  Item2.Visible = true;

  }

  }

  Since you will have a lot of cities, buttons boxesand sharing the same code, it is best to put all the code in the main storyline (the first image).

  If you write code at the beginning that refers to an object that is not currently part of the scene (such as a button that is located on the second frame of a movieclip, which has a code stop() on the first picture), this code never reached its target.

  Similar: If you catch a MouseEvent as onRelease at the parent level, the event is not registered for the child.

  Hope that the attachment is what you had in mind.

  Nice graphic btw

• Button in a Movie clip inside a part of the pane scroll - AS2

  I have a scrollpane component instance named myScroller in a swf file.  It is related to a movieclip named media.  Inside the movieclip are buttons that don't work when they are inside the scrollpane.  A button called "morris" so I tried to put the code on the timeline for the movieclip.

  this.morris.onRelease = function (): Void {}

  _level8._visible = true;

  _level8.gotoAndStop (2);

  }

  It doesn't work - I tried to put it on the main timeline - above the scrollpane.

  myScroller.morris.onRelease = function (): Void {}

  _level8._visible = true;

  _level8.gotoAndStop (2);

  }

  Specific help would be appreciated!

• Button in a movie clip that will command the scene?

  Salvation;

  Type of document html5 Canvas.

  What could be the code for a button (bt1_btn as instance name) which is in a clip (anim_mc as instance name), when the event on the button's "click" and that the statement is: take the play (a scene that already stopped)?

  Cause when I got the script code in the level of the scene that it works fine:

  This.Stop ();

  This.anim_mc.bt1_btn.addEventListener ("click", letsGo.bind (this));

  function letsGo() {}

  This.Play ();

  }

  But what I want is to write the code in the anim_mc clip:

  This.bt1_btn.addEventListener ("click", letsGo.bind (this));

  function letsGo() {}

  //what is the correct script here? > > > Stage.Play ();

  }

  THX

  You don't play the scene. The scene is just a container for the whole object. What you want is to play the root (or hand) timeline.

  To play the root timeline (or any scenario really) anywhere, without having to worry about the use of references, parent.parent.parent etc, store a global reference to the timeilne. On the first image of the timeline root, put something like:

  thisIsTheRootTimeline = this;

  Then in the event handler, follow these steps:

  thisIsTheRootTimeline.play ();

• Coding of a button in a movie clip problems to navigate the scenes

  Hello! I have an another probably noobish question to ask on the CS6.

  My goal is very similar to the mentioned in this forum question described above: http://forums.Adobe.com/message/837995#837995 and also in this issue http://forums.Adobe.com/message/4172919#4172919

  I'm trying to make a button inside a clip in my first scene when you click in the first frame of my second scene. I appointed menu_button_1 instance of the button, and I think that the stage 1 and stage 2 are the names of the scenes. (If they should have special names or instance names, I do not see where type them.) Because of the similarities, I tried to follow the suggestions on these pages. However, I did probably some small thing wrong, (or heck, maybe one thing huge.) that I what I would like to help find.

  Stop();
  myButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
  function clickHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}
  Stop (1, "scene 1");
  }

  This seems to be what has been proposed to enter. I tried to change it works as well for me. That's what I typed to the button action.

  menu_button_1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);

  function clickHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

  gotoAndPlay (1, "scene 2");

  }

  (I removed the stop function because I have music on a loop in the clip I want to play until the mouse is clicked). (Also, I took gotoandplay because I wanted to stage 2 to start playing immediately when clicked, rather than to stop.)

  I tried variations, including the "2" instead of "scene 2" and whatnot. I also tried connecting to differnet places just to see if that would work. It seems that she would be able to join if I only asked a frame in the clip of the film itself, but he couldn't go to all other executives in stage 1 or stage 2. When I try this message appears in the output:

  ArgumentError: Error #2108: stage 2 was not found.

  at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()

  at interactivestgermant_fla::menu_1/clickHandler()

  It seems that not finding my scene 2. (She also can't find scene 1 when I invite you to do so.) I'm afraid that I'm not sure of what I entered incorrectly, although I imagine that this is how I typed the navigation of the scene. Should have an instance name or something? I was very muchappreciate a little nudge in the right direction. If you need more info, I'll be happy to provide. Thanks for the help! I appreciate that very much.

  The first image you provided shows that you have assigned an image tag, not an instance name.  You must select the menu object on the stage and then you should see a section of the properties panel at the top which has a field with "", said inside (assuming it's a movieclip symbol).  This is where you enter the word 'menu'... which is by assigning a name to the instance of the menu you have on the stage.

  The way you seem to have a number of keyframes that precedes in the timeline may mean you need to do this in each keyframe where there is this menu item.  IF you do not, then it can inherit the lack of a name of a previous frame.

• return to the main timeline of the movie clip

  well on my main script, I have an intro, and then a main menu. in this menu, it goes to a clip, I want to create a "back to main menu" button inside the movieclip that will return a certain group in the main timeline.

  can someone help me in this encoding to use?

  see you soon

  What about the fact that you have a problem with?  Do you know how to code a button? If Yes, you can program the button in the main timeline so that all you have to do a gotoAndStop() command is used...  In the main scenario where there is the mc...

  yourMC.theMCButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoMenu);

  function gotoMenu(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

  gotoAndStop (menuframe);

• Verification of the Movie Clip instance

  Is it possible to check if a case of button is available on a certain range?

  i.e.

  Frame 1 has the following movie clips

  a_btn

  b_btn

  Frame 2 has the following movie clips

  a_btn

  c_btn

  I want to check if buttons a, b, c, is available on picture 2 and run a corresponding feature if condition 1 or condition 2 is met

  You can use a simple conditional to check if an object is present...

• How can I enlarge the movie clips? [with pictures]

  

  There are 9 video clips in each square (object) and the color in each video clip can be changed by mouse click.

  
  However, if I want one of the spaces enlarge by clicking on it, then I can click on each video clips to change the color.

  How can I do? Can I create another movie clip and cover the place to click to enlarge?

  Please help me! Thank you!!!

  AS2 or AS3? AS2, you can disable the movieclip which is clicked by mc.enabled = false; For AS3, you can either remove the event listener as mc.removeEventListener ("your event type used listener", onClickFunc) or you can add a flag (Boolean variable) you set to false when it was enlarged and use it to check your onClickFunc and decide whether to change the color of a movieclip or not.
