  Hi all

  I'm looking for help with Encoder CS5. I have a project works very well except that I have not made salient for the buttons, at least, I think it's what his name. So when the mouse or the remote control navigates to the up/down button toa it changes color.

  In the properties of my button, the highlight is dimmed.

  How can I request highlights?

  Thank you very much

• Help with button code please?

  I am a novice and have completed my first animated film. I need help with action script.

  The film is currently in a loop and I created and invisible button the size of the frame with the intention that a user can click on the picture of the movie to stop it and the second click continue the film from where it stopped.

  I used AS event handler method to stop the sequence. I tested it and it works. But I can't understand the appropriate code to restart the movie.

  Two questions;

  1. I go to the task the right way? (should I use two buttons, a stop, a tenure)?

  2. If my approach is possible, can someone give me the right to re - start the movie and put me out of my misery please?

  You can use the following after having changed 'yourbutton' and 'yourmovieclip' to use appropriate instance names:

  {yourbutton.onRelease = function ()}

  {if(!this.) Toggle)}

  yourmovieclip. Stop();

  } else {}

  yourmovieclip. Play();

  }

  This.Toggle =! This.Toggle;

  }

• Need help with buttons!

  Hello someone!
  
  The thing that I would need help with is the buttons that moves... Say there are 2 buttons on the stage, when someone clicks the button, the button from left to right movement and opens something when it stops there. So long it's fine for me, but now the peal problem.
  
  The thing is I want the button now on the right rear to place there where appropriate when I click on a button of the second (and it goes right to the place). When I do now the first button remains in place right... Do someone know what to type in Actionscript?

• Help with buttons to access the loaded layers

  Hi all... Using Flash CS3 and AS3 to build a learning module that loads different layers of SWFs of the buttons on the main screen.  Got this work without problems.  What I want to do is to add buttons to provide learners of features, specifically a next button, the "back" button and a check box that will keep progress automatically.  I did some massive research and so far nothing seems to work.  Seems like I am going so far is the main layer, not the new layers as they are loaded.  Here is what I tried with the back button; the next button uses nextFrame and Handler2.  It does not work.  Not even sure how to start with the check box for advance auto.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

  Mark

  back_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler1);

  function mouseDownHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  MovieClip (root) .prevFrame ();

  }

  If you try to get the swf loaded in advance and not the main timeline, you need to target the loader.content, not the root, as in:

  MovieClip (loader.content) .nextFrame ();

• help with buttons

  Hello

  IM do a shop in my game and I have a button saying my boat to change his image, but I get this error:

  Scene 1, Layer 'have', frame 3, line 7 1061: call to a Stop method maybe not defined through a reference with static type class.

  and here is the corresponding code:

  Stop();
  import flash.display.MovieClip;
  import flash.events.MouseEvent;

  Alien3.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouse1);
  function mouse1(e:MouseEvent):void {}
  Ship.gotoAndStop (2);
  }

  any help.

  It seems that you have a class named 'Ship' and you try to say this class behaves as a movieclip in your code.  What you probably really want to do, this is something in addition to...

  boat: boat of var = new Ship();

  addChild (ship);

  function mouse1(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  ship.gotoAndStop (2);

  }

• Need help with html and as3 dropdown

  First of all Hello!  I need to create a html for a company Web site. The design that I did is in photoshop... .and I need to create a menu drop-down. The first question is: can I create the drop in flash without having to use html frames? Can I connect one of the menu buttons in an html page so that it loads in the same window of the browser to another html page (If Yes... with what?)?  Please... I need to know... because I prefer simply to apply it in flash rather then html. And the second question is: If the scene in flash can be transparent? Because if I do the menu inside, it will be impossible to match all the dimensions of the stage... and I would like to integrate it in an html page, if possible without the stage color >... Thanks in advance!    Tudor

  For the opening of the pages you wish to study using the navigateToURL() function.  The help documentation provides information abiout it year how to control the appearance of the window as well.

  To make the transparent scene is more than a html one aspect of Flash element, if you can set it to publish it.  The key is to set the wmode paraemter which is located in the "transparent" html embed code  I don't know if all browsers supports this feature, but I think that many are willing to.

• Need help with security when AS3 running inside the browser

  Hello
  
  I'm relatively new to flash, but a fairly skilled programmer.
  
  I've created a game that works perfectly and communicates with a WinSock server on port 4000 to publish his final to score. With the help of simple XMLSocket and Send.
  
  When I start the game in the stand-alone flash player everything works perfectly as it should
  
  However, when I embed in an HTML page or similar this is wrong. The game works fine, but the final display on the WinSock socket server fails. I got the error message.
  
  ioErrorHandler: [SecurityErrorEvent type = "securityError" bubbles = false cancelable = false eventPhase = 2 text = "Error #2048"]
  
  My server is a local server run me IIS 6. Everything works very well by the stand-alone flash player, so I know that the ports are clear and firewalls is not the problem.
  
  Searching around google and forums I discovered in 9,0,124,0 (flash I'm short) that they brought security enhancements, namely you must validate a cross-domain file.
  
  My file is sitting in the wwwroot in my Web server where my flash swf is hosted and looks like
  
  < cross-domain-policy >
  < allow-access-from domain = "" * "safe ="false"/ >"
  < / cross-domain-policy >
  
  I also tried adding to article 1 of the swf file
  
  Security.loadPolicyFile (" http://mydomainname.com/crossdomain.xml");
  
  I tried all the bottlenecks, but I can't get the flash to communicate with the server socket when it inside a web browser.
  
  If I run it in the stand-alone player, everything works perfectly.
  
  Can someone help me please. I've been googling and ripping my hair out for centuries. It's the last step in my project and I failed the final step.
  
  
  Just to add.
  
  My server and the test computer are on the same domain, the web server is a win2003 server and my tests and server coding is a XP machine running IE7. They are connected by a router ADSL, sharing the same external IP address, but rather through the DHCP addressing. Everything works fine for winsocket port port forwarding.
  
  Just for emphasis, I think that this configuration is correct, because everything works fine when I run in the flash player.
  
  Thank you very much

  I fixed it later.

  In version 9.0.124.0 flash they force now you have a server running on port 843 XML socket server somewhere if you want to use XMLSocket in a browser.

  Nothing to do with the domain or crossdomain.xml files.

  You must also call

  Security.loadPolicyFile ("xmlsocket://x.x.x.x:843") before opening the socket.

  to load into the XML file that defines what is allowed.

  Google search for AS3 and socket server port 843 and you will find examples and even a simple Java based server to use.

• Help with button over the button (OnHover questions)

  I have a sat button A button B.  B button navigates to another point on timeline onmouseOut. A re acts as the B button onhover when hung on even though its only function is to go to a Web site when you click the button.  How to not to do so.  (it has something to do with the key a session over the B button that acts as a navigation panel.

  To illustrate, I have a circle (a ring) nagiavtion menu which is hover button B animtes, which actually look like the commuter ring to the Viewer.  When they mouse over button B he then times the next section of the scenario that seems to do the menu tilt back to normal.  So currently it is supposed to work like this:

  They hover over button B that comes alive to sign 10.  On board 10 the tilted wheel now has buttons of towing.  one to read a video and the other to go to the site for the link they flew over.

  When a person is placed on one of the buttons the tilting animation replays and retitls the wheels before the link becomes active to click which makes navigation uptight or bugged.  IWant the animation to play the 10 Panel and stay here, then they choose a button to click and only tilt back to normal when the user mouseout/mouseouthandler() the big underlying under button.

  Legitly evolves from the development of the object from one display to the other. Flash is required to send the MOUSE_OUT event as soon as your mouse cursor enters a new object because it is more on the previous object. This does not mean that you however he can only prevent.

  This is a pretty easy thing to manage with the code, but I need to know more about how to configure the button.

  Is the circle rotating a clip or a button? If it is a button that will take more work. If you have coded a MovieClip, then it will be easier.

  After that I know the answers to the above question, that the answer will result by setting just a few flags to know a condition. Once you have lost your drive in place and pop buttons on the screen, the MOUSE_OUT code will need to check that if you rode on all objects you do not want the drive to respond to the. I'll provide more code once you let me know how put you up.

• Problems with button in AS3 in CS5

  I tried to get a simple button to work, but I am having trouble.

  How do you define the name of a button? I tried to put in the library as "button1" but my actionscript:

  Stop();

  Button1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, advance);

  function advance(event:MouseEvent) {}

  gotoAndStop (5);

  }

  does not work; in fact, even the stop command does nothing and it does the trick of his five images.

  If I can replace "button1" 'stage' stop command functions, but then the button is not the trigger - clicking anywhere jumps to the frame 5.

  I think the problem I have is with the "button1.addEvent...". "line. I do not know how to connect my photo from the button with "button1".

  I called button1 and I tried to check "export for Actionscript and set button1 as the class, but none of this has worked.

  This problem might have to do with the fact that I'm not administrator on this computer?

  Drag your button from the library onto the stage.  in the properties panel, you can assign a name of "instance". for example, button1.   You can now reference this object in actionscript using button1.

  If your button is already on the boards, click it to select it.  then in the properties panel assign the name of the instance.

• Need help with button and motion tween...

  I am trying to create a simple game. For now, I have a button which, when you click top moves the character on the screen. My question is doing the Player stop looping when I click on the button. If I insert just for the last image, it will make a loop only once and stop, but he won't play again after that the button is clicked. I tried to use players_turn Boolean but could not get that to work. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

  Looks rather than having stop(); in the last image, you must have...  MovieClip (parent) .gotoAndStop (1);

• Help with button

  Real simple... I can make the background any color I want, but how to make it transparent?
  
  Yes, I am new Director and uses D11 on a PC.
  
  The button that I use is a basic button and I don't want to create in an external editor. Is it possible to make it transparent or I have to create an outwardly there have be transparent? I use several buttons to start different films according to the lesson is chosen. I have a graph I use as a comprehensive background and I want the interference of buttons with this background to be minimal but still be visible.
  

  I'm new Director as well, but I think that all you have to do is 1) select button 2) in the Sprite tab 3) according to the ink, select Inspector: select Transparent background from the drop-down list.

• Help with button for search data &amp; put in form fields

  I thought clicking on a button to fill out a few fields of the form with the data of a previous record would be simple, but there is something it clutter. I created 3 components are:
  
  1. a button "Copy last Pickup & drop-off Instructions" in my form box. It sets the button ask the value of 'COPY_PICKUP_DROPOFF '.
  
  2. a conditional branch, which sets fire ' on submit after treatment "conditional on the button, which branches off to the same page, and affects the application of 'COPY_PICKUP_DROPOFF '.
  
  3. a process (On Load - after header) Page that defines the shape of field values, that is subordinated to the request = COPY_PICKUP_DROPOFF (Type of Condition: Request = 1 Expression). Finally, it queries the database, but now the PL/SQL to define the shape of the field values is very basic:
  
  Start
  : P71_PICKUP_INSTRUCTIONS: = "debug set PICKUP INSTRUCTIONS."
  : P71_DROPOFF_INSTRUCTIONS: = "debug set DROP-OFF INSTRUCTIONS."
  end;
  
  Can anyone spot what I am missing which is required for this configuration to work? In that time by pressing the button submits the page but not to fill the form fields, do not raise errors.

  Hi Mark,
  I do not see the code for this link, so can't do any real investigation myself.
  In debug mode, when you click on 'Copy last Pickup and drop-off Instructions', you see that the application is actually the value?
  What is the source of the items you want to refresh? Populated each time or only when it is null?
  Cheers, Rob
