Button inside MC won't work - Basic

Hi everyone,
I'm a pretty novice user of Flash 8. I have a basic button
that when users click on, just takes them to another frame on the
timeline. When it's outside the movie clip of a map, it works fine:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", "villa2");

you just have a path issue here and need to call the correct
path. If there is only one scene then you do not need to use the
scene parameter. dz's code will work by calling to the _root
timeline or use _level0 or _parent._parent (if understand your
structure correctly) so it should read:
on(release) {
_root.gotoAndStop('villa2');
that is if this code is being attached to the button, if it
is on the timeline of the button's parent clip it would read:
the_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoAndStop('villa2');
I find it interesting that a getURL would work for this
though, I'm not sure how you would have done that, but I digress
PS. you can post your fla here, zip the file, mount it on
your server, and post the address to the file using the http link,
in the reply window (use the 'Reply' link in the top of the

  • My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?

    My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?

    first try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    next
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Button named "Play" won't work!

    Hello folks,
    I am working on fairly simple project and I need only one button on a menu so I created one with text says "Play"
    and then I try to simulate and click on it, it just won't work.
    Why is that????? I did every possible way I could think of although I am pretty novice with Studio Pro.
    Can anyone help me with this issue please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi.
    If you are using APack for your audio files, yuo can tweek the db settings (the default is -27). You can do tests by changing this all over the place. Maybe that might help.

  • Linked text inside table won't work - please help!

    Inside a 3 column table, I linked some text to a file in a different folder but the same site, and the links won't work.  I have linked text in a table before and it worked.

  • Buttons inside movie clip dont work

    I have a simple HTML website with 5 buttons one of which, a movie clip, drops down 3 more buttons but the buttons dont always work. I get wierd issues for instance: whether I'm on the mcs page or another page completly the drop down buttons only work when Im on the parent movie clips page. When the buttons do work and you click on the button of the page your on  they only work once then the whole issue repeats itself. Hopefully to clarify here is the code inside of the movie clip that directs the drop down buttons.
    stop();
    var cdButton:URLRequest= new URLRequest("character desin.html");
    cd_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, cd);
    function cd(event:MouseEvent):void
            navigateToURL(cdButton,"_self");
    var caButton:URLRequest= new URLRequest("concept art.html");
    ca_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ca);
    function ca(event:MouseEvent):void
            trace("ca_btn");
            navigateToURL(caButton,"_self");
    var dsButton:URLRequest= new URLRequest("draw sketch.html");
    ds_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ds);
    function ds(event:MouseEvent):void
            trace("ds_btn");
            navigateToURL(dsButton,"_self");

    From what I see you are trying to somehow program a Actionscript only iframe navigation. That will never work without an external Interface call to the Browsers Javascript. This is complicated stuff and surely not what you have in mind. If concept art, draw sketch etc. are all separate swf files, you should load them (instead of the html you embedded them in)

  • Button inside MovieClip don't work...?!

    Hello,
    I\m traying to create AIR for Android app & I have 2 MovieClips in the main timeline the first in frame 35 and the second in frame 99 with the name of quary_mc. Inside the second movieclip there is a button with the name of sID_btn. When i addEventListener in frame 1 of the  main timeline it display:
    Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of null object reference
    This is the code:
    quary_mc.sID_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, displayData);
    function displayData(evt:MouseEvent):void
              trace("Hello");
    Regards,

    You will be unable to add the event listener to the button until frame 99 when it actually exists.
    Alternatively, you can just add the button on frame 1 at an alpha of 0 and then set it to 1 at frame 99. However, it will still get mouse input so you will need to set quary_mc.visible = false on frame 1 and quary_mc.visible = true on frame 99 to solve that issue.

  • Button inside movie won't react to rollOver

    Hi there,
    I am developing a sort of panorama movie where the image
    scrolls around. That is working but when I try to set some hotspots
    on it by adding buttons in the movieClip I can't get them to react
    to rollOver action since (onRelease and onPress) it is already used
    by the main movieClip.
    Any idea on a work around?
    I have been reading for 4 hours and can't find a good
    solution.

    i am not expert coder so I have make a movie clip to the
    Mouse so I startDrag() and use the hit test to change the status of
    my Buton.mc.
    But i am still unnable to use on(press), and all the other
    mouse functions because they are use by the main movieClip
    if you would be so kind and explain me how to do that or a
    link to some tutorial I would really appreciate.

  • Buttons for music won't work

    It used to work perfectly then suddenly it stopped working for some reason. When I play music, I cannot control it on the lock screen at all. I press pause and nothing happens. Same thing with the skip forward and backwards buttons. I know it knows I pressed it, because the buttons light up when I press them, but it has no effect on the music. Did Apple remove this feature for the iOS7? That's what I have. Or did I accidentally remove this feature? Please help me. It's very annoying. Thanks in advance.

    You can try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    However, some onther users have reported the same problem so it it may be a bug in iOS 7

  • F2 button for brightness won't work on 2010 MacBook Pro

    I have a mid year 2010 MacBook Pro utilizing Mountain Lion 10.8.3 OSX.  For some reason the F1 and F2 buttons are not working for brightness.  Maybe I turned something off by mistake? If I hit F5 it shows a circle with a line in it like it is off or locked.  Any ideas how to get the brightness to work again?  Trying to avoid the Genius Bar if possible.  Any ideas?

  • I have airplay button but it won't work from imac to ATV. Phones are a-go however...

    Current household setup:
    -most recent imac that didn't get lyposuction. Not upgraded to 10.7.5. Currently sitting at OS update one before that.
    -2x Iphone 4S
    -Apple TV, most recent model, updated to latest update.
    -Linksys 2600E wireless router
    So currently, I can airplay and mirror from both iphones to the Apple TV with zero issues. Music streaming, youtube mirroring and browsing all works flawlessly. However, when I attempt to stream a .mp4 movie from itunes to the apple TV by either playing it on the imac OR playing it from the Apple TV it fails.
    Everything worked perfectly until I updated the Apple TV to 5.1. The moment that update went through, it "broke" airplay between the imac and ATV. Now, in iTunes I still have the airplay icon and it's clickable to select Apple TV for streaming, but when it begins, it just sort of hangs then eventually times out.
    I've managed to get it to work briefly (for 20 minutes) by changing some router settings, but nothing permanent.  From memory (I'm currently at work) the settings on my router are as follows:
    -WPA, non hidden SSID
    -MAC Address filtering OFF
    -2.4GHZ on 20hz only (as suggested by apple support page)
    -5ghz on 20 to 40
    -Port forwarded the following ports, now this is from memory so may not be 100% - 123, 3689, 5353  http://http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2463
    -the band or channel signal is set to Auto for both.
    These are the settings as recommended by Apple and it still doesn't work. I think that the 5.1+ update screwed with some wifi settings in the ATV airplay fuctionality but I'm pretty confused about everything. How come it works via iphones, but not from the imac? (which is also on wifi)
    My iphone, iMac and Apple TV have the same home share account logged in, all on the same WIFI network, through the same router. It's odd.
    If anyone has suggestions or answers, I'd be thrilled to try them out or look into them further.

  • Mouse clicks won't work on the browser - any suggestions?

    Following an upgrade of Firefox last year, I can't get the mouse clicks to work on the browser. Doesn't matter whether it's left or right buttons. The radio buttons and links get highlighted when you hover the mouse over the links or the buttons but they won't work when clicked. They work on other browsers (Explorer and Chrome) but no longer on Firefox. I'm using it on a Sony Vaio laptop running Windows 7

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
