I did something like this... I had a button that I clicked to load the different movies. The movies resized / moved changed alpha and stuff.

I have recently just finished a project with and this is really a simple change. Start by changing your xml attribute "href" to something like "goTo". You will need to change all the references to your xml attributes to replace the "href" with "goTo". The next step, within the linkMC onRelease f...more >>

This was driving me crazy too. Here is the best method I found: dot notation won't work this way, so we use the brackets: _global["varname"] = 'info'; //normal global declaration with brackets and the dynamic example... color = "hot_pink"; //I'm dynamic! _global[color] = 'ugly'; //so no...more >>

To everyone looking for a solution for this, (no thanks to the unhelpful twit) calling invalidateList() works for me: videoList.dataProvider = new DataProvider(listArr); videoList.invalidateList(); (invalidateList redraws the list - you don't need to remove any element in the list if you rese...more >>

Thank you very much :)...more >>

yes, you're having a common problem here. One can't place button (MC buttons even) within another the has an on handler, what happens is that the parent buttons events are the only ones that receive event notification. So this approach won't work. one solution, is to use a hitTest method...more >>

I think that if your buttons are within a movieclip (on the left) you will need one more level of depth to reach the main timeline (ie. one more '_parent') and complete the path. However it would be easier to reference the lowest level then the MC by calling: on(release) { _level0.event...more >>

create your sounds using AS Sound Objects, then target the Sound Object using code.

kglad, Thank you for your response. I trigger the sound to play like this: sAmbience.play(0,1,sAmbienceVol) and that of course starts playing the mp3 no problem, so your saying decrement/increment the "sAmbineceVol" ? Could you give me an example of the loop? I realize your ...more >>

I believe I am using as2. When I select the symbol it displays the button logo, so I am assuming that they are true buttons and not movieclip buttons. The code I am trying to use right now is: on (release) { this._parent.eventright.gotoAndPlay("lucyframe"); } ...more >>

you sound (sAmbience.play() ) returns a soundchannel instance which has a soundTransfrom property. that soundTransform property has a volume property that will set the volume for your sound (sAmbience). you can use any loop (ENTER_FRAME or timer) to fade that volume property. ...more >>
