Buttons and Action script 3

I have purchased Flash CS3 and have created a small
animation. I would like the user to press the button in order for
the animation to play. With the previouse version of flash I would
drag the button onto the stage open the action script window and
start entering the script e.g. on(release){gotoandPlay(5);}
However with the new version I cannot write scripts for the
buttons.... I am confused or am I missing something? Please help me
out.

you're missing actionscript3. and if you don't care to learn
and use it, just use the actionscript2 publish settings and use
actionscript2 coding in your projects.

Buttons and Action Script 3 in Flash CS4

Hi, I am new to Flash. I am working on creating a photo gallery and I am having an issue trying to figure out how to add AS3 code to link buttons to a point in a timeline. I have 5 buttons each with an alpha transparency change that works fine and now I want to establish an action on each button that on CLICK will bring up a particular photo in my timeline. Help! Thanks

I can't tell you what is involved with bringing up a photo on your timeline, but to code a button to do something, first you assign it an instance name via the properties panel. Let's say you name it btn1.
Then, normally in layer dedicated to actionscript, in the same frame as that button you assign an event listener and an event handler to go with it...
function btn1Handler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("framelabel"); // or frame number
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Handler);
For that example it shows how to have the button make things move to a different frame in the timeline.

Problems adding url link to buttons in action Script 3

each time I added it link 1 to the button on file i get these error messages-
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: link1.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method link1.
Warning: 3594: exec is not a recognized method of the dynamic class RegExp. var r:Object = p.exec(s);
This is the code I am using:   import flash.net.navigateToURL; import flash.net.URLRequest; var link_one:link1; link_one = new link1(); stage.addChild(link_one); link_one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler); function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { var url:String = "http://www.masterpiececorp.com/ARMREF.htm"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); navigateToURL(request); }    I have no other problems with link 3 or 4, just link 1 I still cannot get my urls link to movie clips on the flash
Can you upload flash here? if not I have a image capture I can use to have you look at my buttons and action script code. i have been to every forum I know and not any have been helpful at all. This is my last hope.

The way you had your code originally would be correct...
var link_one:link1;
link_one = new link1();
addChild(link_one);
The 1046 error is indicating it doesn't recognize the link1 class. So the first thing you need to make sure of is that you have assigned the link1 class designation to whatever symbol that is in the library.

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

Using Flach CS4 and action script 2.0 how do I advance to a specific frame of the main timeline when a movie clip instance come to the end of its timeline?

code on the last frame of your movieclip instance:
_root.gotoAndStop('whatever_frame'); // will work unless this swf is loaded into another swf. in that situation, you should use a relative path to the main timeline (eg, _parent or _parent._parent etc).

Flex with any ORM - Writing Model classes and action scripts redundant?

Hi,
I am using Hibernate with Flex. I have all my model classes
as POJOs. Now if i have to access these POJOs directly from flex, I
need to write action script reference classes for all my POJO model
classes. Since mapping POJOs with action script reference classes
is so mechanical, i am wondering if there is any tool to read all
the properties from the POJO's and convert them to action script
reference classes automatically. Is there any way that this can be
automated?
Thanks in advance.

If you use Granite Data Services, there's something called
"gas3" (I think is the name). You may be able to use it even if you
don't use Granite.
I didn't care for learning how to use it (plus it uses
Groovy, more needless stuff to learn I guess), so I can't say how
well it works. I just wanted a simple custom ant task that
generates ActionScript classes for my Java classes. So I ended up
making my own. It's definitely not trivial but it's not that hard
if you're very good with Java and reflection.

Dynamic Creation of Buttons and Actions HELP

Hi there,
I have got a problem (or maybe even two) with the dynamic Creation of buttons. The code below creates the buttons.
My main problem is, that the parameter created for the button's action isn't propagated to the assigned event handler. I get a null, though the name of the parameter in the event handler and the name of the parameter added to the action are the same.
Could it also be that I'm always using the same action? I.e. does wdThis.wdGetAddElementAction() always return the same action instance? If yes, how can I create individual actions for each button?
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers,
Heiko
"    for(int i=rootContainer.getChildren().length; i<wdContext.nodeFeature().size();i++)
               IPrivateVCT_Feature.IFeatureElement featureElement = wdContext.nodeFeature().getFeatureElementAt(i);
               IWDTray featureTray = (IWDTray) view.createElement(IWDTray.class, featureElement.getName());
               IWDCaption header = (IWDCaption) view.createElement(IWDCaption.class, featureElement.getName()+"_Header");

               featureTray.addChild(button);

Hi Heiko,
You have done everything correctly....except for 1 line
in the code...
Replace the following line in your code:
actionAddElement.getActionParameters().addParameter("featureIndex", new Integer(i).toString());
Replace the above line with this code:
button.mappingOfOnAction().addParameter("featureIndex",i);
Actually in your code, you are not associating the parameter with the button...
Note that addParameter(...) comes with two signatures: addParameter(String param, String value) and addParameter(String param, int value). You can use any of them based on yuor need.
Hope it helps,
Thanks and Regards,

Duplicating Buttons and Actions?

I am creating an Interactive PDF and will be using buttons to show and hide many of the features. I would like to replicate many of the buttons and the actions. However, when I try and copy and paste (or use option) to do this actions attached to the button would not export to the PDF. Is there anything I can do to fix this or accomplish the same thing?

If a button is not working correctly, here are the typical culprits.
1. PDF viewer. Interactive elements may not work on various PDF viewers, but in your case, you're using Reader.
2. Corruption. An Indesign document (especially one with with many interactive elements) can become corrupt. Export to IDML, open IDML back into ID, export to PDF and test.
3. Faulty Inspection. A button can be a complex interaction of actions, events and visibility. A button can have multiple actions assigned to multiple events. The complexity is compounded with many buttons using show/hide actions. The task of determining whether all attributes are applied correctly is tedious. Make sure to toggle each event in panel and inspect each action, along with checking the visibility of other buttons.

Help with Web Service and Action Script

Hi! I have a Web Service to which I should pass multiple
parameters. I would like to implement it completely in Action
Script for studing. What's happening is that in the call I pass 3
parameters and the soap message created is repeating the first
parameter. Let me explain better:
Here is the declaration of the webService:
quote:
<mx:WebService
id="ws"
wsdl="
http://127.0.0.1:8080/WS1/pessoaService/pessoa.wsdl">
<mx:operation name="PesquisarPessoa">
<mx:request>
<PesquisarPessoaRequest>
<id>{fieldId0.text}</id>
<nome>{fieldNome0.text}</nome>
<endereco>{fieldEndereco0.text}</endereco>
</PesquisarPessoaRequest>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
</mx:WebService>
Here is my action script which invokes the PesquisarPessoa
operation:
quote:
private function exibirAlterarRegistro():void {
ws.PesquisarPessoa(fieldId0.text, fieldNome0.text,
fieldEndereco0.text);
Here is the message catched by the web service (It repeats
the first parameter):
quote:
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<schema:PesquisarPessoaRequest xmlns:schema="
http://www.example.org/Pessoa">
<schema:id>3</schema:id>
<schema:nome>3</schema:nome>
<schema:endereco>3</schema:endereco>
</schema:PesquisarPessoaRequest>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
Thanks!

check the names of parameters published to the wsdl
file.

Help!!! Button and action sequence...

I am creating a relatively simple web site in FC, but I have run into a problem. I purchased a stock .mov file, which I converted in Flash CS5 to use as an intro to the site. In Flash, I added a button to enter the site. My resulting .swf intro works perfectly in Flash; but when I import into FC, the button no longer functions (the button states are preserved, but there is no interactivity - even when I use the "Add Interaction" panel in FC). Where did I go wrong?
And, is there any way to access a specific frame of a file in FC?
Thanks!
Jane

There is a nice converter in the CS5 suite called something like Adobe Media Converter I think. Use that tool and convert it to a flv instead. There is lots of things in Flash that I think runs in conflict if you embed a .swf with a FLVplayer from flash.

PHP AND ACTION SCRIPT

Hello Experts,
I am trying to make communication between FMS server and PHP (Linux server). As I am working on a video recording application I want to move the recorded video file from the FMS server to my PHP (Linux server). I am trying to connect to FMS server using rtmp path through PHP script but unable to establish connection.

Ben,
At the end of the 29:43 minute Part One video, starting at 28:28 minutes,
he says, "If you are watching this on YouTube there will be a link to click
in the subscription box and it will take you to a web page where you will
be able to download the PHP Java script and form validation processing
scripts you will need to complete Part Two of this tutorial."
So I did all that but could not find the Contact Form Validation download
link! The tutorial is using Dreamweaver CS5 so do you think Adobe deleted
the Contact Form Validation file because it is no longer needed with CS6?
I will see how far I get in Part Two, but let me know if you know what I
should do.
Thank you,
Rick

Flash buttons with action script working but I don't understand them enough to use

My addy is www.abdezines.com firstly otherwise i will forget.
Can anyone explain to me how my buttons work as I have pulled
them apart many a time and can not get my ead around them to be
able to re create in a similar idea. Someone built them for me
previously but will no longer help when all I want to do is
understand them so I can do them myself. I can change the wording
when they are in my current website, the speed it moves and the
same with the arrows but I cant see how to start it elsewhere
despite all my digginh around in it.
If someone can perhaps talk me through it, I have the files
for it if wanted.
Many thanks

My msn addy is [email protected] if anyone can help
me

Logon customization adding the button and action

HI,
I have a com.sap.portal.runtime.par file I imported and umLogonpage.JSp I added the pictures.

Can any one help me in this same.

Why another way? Just typejava.lang.Object source = ...Kind regards,

Button and Action Event

Im using this code
ic void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e)
     //Object source = evt.getSource(); Cant use Object as it becomes ambiguous, being used by both CORBA and Java
     Object source = e.getSource();
     if (source == testButton)
          sendElement("HelloWorld");
}which is cool but when using it in a corba application the pesky compiler throws this back.
Supplier.java:204: reference to Object is ambiguous, both class org.omg.CORBA.Ob
ject in org.omg.CORBA and class java.lang.Object in java.lang match
Object source = e.getSource();
is there another way to achieve the same but without using the Object thing ?

Why another way? Just typejava.lang.Object source = ...Kind regards,
