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.

  • 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.

  • AS3 putting the buttons inside the Movie Clip

    I'm practicing AS3 (after years of AS2) and can't have a button inside of a clip speaks to another clip on the main timeline. Here is the code:

    OneButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, OneButtonClicked);

    function OneButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    MovieTarget.gotoAndStop (1);

    MovieDescription.gotoAndStop ("One");

    }

    TwoButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, TwoButtonClicked);

    function TwoButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    MovieTarget.gotoAndStop (2);

    MovieDescription.gotoAndStop ("Two");

    }

    The code above works, but if I put OneButton and channels within a clip, I know can target the MovieTarget and MovieDescription. The reason that I want to put OneButton and strings inside it's own MC is so I can dim each hit after top by switching the playhead within this MC help. ? Thank you!

    Start from the beginning

    Press f8 and choose movieClip, then draw your button movie untoggled call then create another movie and create your button toggled or grayed button and call it greyedButton.  Go to the main stage add 2 instances of button and 2 greyedButton (just drag the library).  you have 4 instances on stage.  give the name of the instances of appeal and place them one over the other so you can see 2 buttons on the stage.  put the button greyed under the button.

    now with action script

    Button1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, OneButtonClicked);

    function OneButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    MovieTarget.gotoAndStop (1);

    MovieDescription.gotoAndStop ("One");

    Button1.visible = false; Here the button greyed will show

    }

    Button2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, TwoButtonClicked);

    function TwoButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    MovieTarget.gotoAndStop (2);

    MovieDescription.gotoAndStop ("Two");

    Button1.Visible = true; Here button1 will return to its orignal State

    Button2.visible = false / / here will show the button greyed

    }

    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.

  • Build relationships of button in a movie clip

    I'm looking to learn more about Flash in general and actionscript in particular. I created a flash piece that consists of 4 buttons in a clip that is be hidden by another clip. A film is all of the 4 buttons. The other film is a "spotlight" that moves with the cursor. As the spotlight shines on each button, the button text changes color and is "enlightened". The State above each button is set key to change the color. When I put a keyframe in the Down state of each button to add actionscript to create the action that makes the clickable button to take the Viewer on a web page, it tells me that no action can be given to this State down. If I try to use behaviors to accomplish the same thing, he told me that the behaviors are not supported. If I put actionscript in the layer actions of the scenario, there is no action required, i.e. by clicking the buttons doesn't lead anywhere I tried to move actionscript code before, between and after the setInterval and setMasker actionscript code that controls the interaction between the two film clips (which works perfectly). I tried to insert a layer actions in the button clip - same result - nothing. I tried to put the actionscript code in the second image on the layer actions (both in the main timeline and in the clip), all to nothing does not. I give each button an instance and used name in the actionscript code.

    Here is the actionscript code that I use for one of the buttons:
    book.onPress = function() {}
    book.getURL ("http. ("/ / www.bainbridge.wednet.edu");
    }

    I don't get an error message with this actionscript. I just don't get sent to the web page. I use Flash 8.

    What should I do? Is this a problem because the cursor is already attached to a share? I'm sure this must be possible, if only I knew more.

    Thanks for help.

    you have the real mc identified as (book), the root and the code I posted above? If so, are the code and the mc on the same frame? You should also note that the code shown above is intended to be placed on your time line for root, not directly on the mc identified as (book). one last thing: you need to properly target your mc (book).

    target like this:

    IF YOU ARE ON THE TIME LINE MAIN (_root):

    If (book) lies on the _root already then your target path is simply book.onRelease.
    If (book) lies inside an another movieclip on the _root, try to find out what movieclip (book)
    resides in. which will now be the first part of your target path.
    then to know if (book) lies in an another movieclip. If so, this will be the next part of the
    target your path.
    This continues until you reach (book). the entire path you took to reach (book) is your
    target path.
    You can also click the target icon in your actionscript pane to insert target a path for
    your movieclip.

    Here is an example in which (book) lies within another video clip (yourMovieClip) on your _root:

    yourMovieClip.book.onRelease = function () {}
    getURL (" http://www.cnn.com/");
    }

  • Buttons with nested movie clips...

    Hi guys

    I'm a newb flash. Just read a few tutorials on the creation of the buttons flash containing clips nested for the different States. So I went and made 5 of them for my site, everything seems much the rollover effects are just as expected, and I thought I might add URL link in Dreamweaver, but it does not work. Been Googling my * off to add URL via actionscript (which I understand VERY little), found some code (keyframe is added the following: {we (release)})
    getURL (" http://www.generic.com', '_parent'");
    }
    Problem is, when I try to add the button/image, I to thought I "current selection cannot have actions applied to it" if I persist and add the script anyway, oddly enough it does not work.
    I did an experimental touch, including diff color boxes, and AS will apply to that no problem.
    I am tearing my hair, I already posted the flash links on my site and had to add a note for visitors to use static links in the meantime.

    I'd love to post the .fla file but I see not an option nowhere here to do.
    If a wise soul can help my stupid * out of this dilemma, it would be greatly appreciated.

    You use code AS2, which will not work in AS3. That particular code is placed on an AS3 object does not support, which is why he doesn't let you... all the AS3 code goes in the frames of the timeline.

    For objects of Deutsch mouse (buttons, clips, etc.) you assign event listeners to the object. Let's say that your button has an instance name of "btn", here is a variety of the event possible listeners avaiable and I assigned them to the button...

    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, doubleClickHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
    btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL, mouseWheelHandler);

    Everyone «...» Things of Manager"at the end are the names of the functions that you create to act when the listener hears something that he assigned dethrone, name them, you can use anything you want and here's and example of how the function might look like for the CLICK event...

    function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {}
    trace ("clickHandler");
    }

    Again, you can name the function of what you want, and the code within the function may be all you need to do when the button is clicked... just be sure to include the argument "event: MouseEvent" because listeners get an argument to the function and the function must be expected. The part 'event' which is a name of variable, so you can name it anything you like, such as 'e', which is commonly done. The MouseEvent defines the class and should be exactly what it is... a MouseEvent, caps and all.

  • 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.

  • Targeting movie clip button in a movie clip

    Hello

    I just can't work this. It should be simple

    I'm trying to target a clip in a clip.

    I have a clip on the main stage with an instance of a name

    I have the following on her action script

    on (release) {_root.a.gotoAndStop (2);}

    }

    So on frame 2 a I that a button (instance name b) which has also two frames and a stop on image 1 action.
    All I want to do is click on the button and make it go in box 2. It should work, but it is not
    Here's the ActionScript button (b)
    (press) {_root.a.b.gotoAndPlay (2);}
    }
    Any ideas?

    The first thing we do is to get the code on objects and place it in the timeline panel.  In the timeline root for one button you would use...

    a.onRelease = function() {}

    a.gotoAndStop (2);

    }

    Similarly, in structure 2 inside one, where is the other button b...

    b.onRelease = function() {}

    b.gotoAndPlay (2);

    }

  • How to access a button in a movie clip?

    I have a button (myButton_btn) that is nested in a few video clips. How do you get it from the main time line?

    This look like a code appropriate:

    firstLevel_mc.secondLevel_mc.thirdLevel_mc.myButton_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_goHome);

    function onClick_goHome(event:MouseEvent): void {}

    this.gotoAndPlay ("homesequence");

    }

    or it should be something like this:

    myButton_btn . addEventListener ()MouseEvent. Click ON , onClick_goHome);

    function
    onClick_goHome (event: MouseEvent):void {}
    MovieClip ()firstLevel_mc.secondLevel_mc.thirdLevel_mc). gotoAnd Play ("homesequence");
    }

    The first would be appropriate to assign the event listener for the button of a distant relative chronology, but as long as the event handler functions go, you haven't identified what you are trying to control according to the gotoAndStop command is concerned.  But targeting happen in a similar way as the event listener... you intend to the timeline, you're in.

  • How to use a button in a movie clip to go to the root?

    Hi, I am new to flash and AS3 and need help to get my buttons.

    I made a script to the file I'm working with who has 2 movieclips to buttons. I want this button and load the image in a UILoader (problemLoader_mc) that I placed on the stage on the main timeline (chronology which contains WeekBar_mc). The problem is that I don't know how to get to the root of the file to start a new directory to tell my function to load the image I want. I tried several approaches, including:

    MovieClip (root).problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray [0]
    MovieClip (parent).problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray [0]
    root.problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray [0]
    parent.problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray [0]
    (root as MovieClip).problemLoader_mc.source = problemArray [0]


    If anyone can help me with this, I would be very happy, I'm banging my head against a wall for the moment. (Also, please excuse my vague descriptions, I'm still learning the official terminology).

    Here is the code that I wrote which relates to this problem:

    I have a mental block for the reasoning of the things regarding the allocation of the listener to an object two mc far the main timeline while having the function on the main timeline, so I can play with it my own for awhile. One thing you don't have but had to pay the same attention to the assignment of problemArray [0] in that function, I assume also lives in the root.

    But here's what I would do at the moment.

    Take all the code except the table and plant it in the scenario where the lives of WEEK1btn, modify as follows...

    WEEK1_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, pload1);

    function pload1(event:Event)
    {
    . ProblemLoader_mc.source (this.parent.parent) of MovieClip = MovieClip (this.parent.parent) .problemArray [0];
    }

    I've not used root myself yet, so I'm not comfortable giving you a solution it is trying.
