Flash Button Symbol with As3 - Relevant or not!

I see no point of using Buttons symbols anymore as i script in AS3 using MovieClips and instance name.
Simple question: can we send Button Symbols in the limbs?
Thanks for answering this easy one, maybe not so easy after all....

Some people never use button symbols and have always used movieclips instead, so whatever the limbs might be, your buttons could probably be sent there.

  • Putting Hyperlinks into Flash Button Symbols

    Hi there,
    I just wanted to know how to put Hyperlinks into Flash Button
    symbols
    For example;
    I have a button which is named Home, and i have the UP, OVER,
    DOWN and HIT stages and wanted to put a
    Hyperlink to lets say Google so www.google.com.au and wanted
    it to open in the same page not a new tab.
    And if possible would like to know how to put multiple
    Buttons as one Flash File and have them all Hyperlinked to
    DIFFERENT Pages.
    I know very little Actionscript, but know what it is and
    other basics on it.
    I am using Adobe CS3 Flash 9 and would prefer a simple
    answer, Thank You

    Hi,
    There is a video tutorial for this on my website below.
    Hope this helps.

  • Possibly crashed.... Now flashing folder symbol with question mark.

    Hi
    I think my iMac crashed tonight. It kept freezing, and i couldnt force quit anything. I restarted, and then none of my programs would open, and i couldnt click on anything. I held in my power button, shut it off and kept it held in. Then a blank white screen came up and stayed there for about 10 minutes. Then a flashing folder with a question mark came up. Im not sure what happened or what to do. Your help is GREATLY appreciated.

    Just a spelling mistake

    First, Try to verify the disk with disk utility found in your install dvd.
    The flashing question mark means that the computer can't find a system.
    There must be a system error
    Unless the hard drive failed, then you should be fine with a reinstall.
    (if you hear a clicking sound, then yes, sadly the hard drive is failing.)

  • How do I add flash cs4 game with AS3 to flash cs4 website??

    I have created a game in flash with ActionScript 3 and now want to add it to a website I have created with pages seperated into keyframes. Ideally, I am trying to have the game start when a link on the home page is selected. I would also like the users to be able to download the game themselves??? Any ideas for a flash novice??

    Thank you so much!!! I just added it with a UI Loader Component! Worked really well... although it looks like doing that picked up an issue with some of my code? It's now looping over and over again and the counter within my game (for giving players their score - highlighted in red), is not working?If you are a AS3 guru any help would be greatly appreciated, otherwise thank you so much for your earlier tips

  • Targeting symbol with on off labels not working

    Hi,
    I am trying to have this gray button on the right turn the "What is NeoGraft" symbol to white when moused over, and show hide some content.
    Content show hide  is working, but the nested symbol q1_off with the on and off labels isn't working. I think my code is certainly targeted wrong.
    This is the code applied to my ugly gray button:
    sym.$("q1_off").stop("off");
    What am I missing to target the q1_off symbol and tell it to go to the frame I want?
    Here's a link to where I'm at. http://newhairutah.com/edge/res_faqs_01.html

    Hey,
    Is there a protective case or film on the iPhone? If there is try testing without it.
    Then try the general tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1650#faq22
    If the issue persists, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • Flash Pro CS6 with Air 14 SDK not supporting iOS7 icons?

    I'm trying to publish an app using Air SDK 14.0.0.110 (and tried 14.0.0.137) and there is still no place to put the iOS 7 icon files, 120x120, 76x76, and 152x152, is this correct?

    Your only choices are to build from the command line, or change to Flash Pro CC 2014.
    Read this long thread for how you might publish from the command line without having to get the whole command typed perfectly (you can get the line from Console):

  • Mask layers in button symbols not working?

    Hi!
    I am making a button symbol with many graphical elements
    placed in separate layers. I also want to use regular (not
    scripted)mask layers inside the button symbol but it doesn't work
    when I test the movie. In the authoring environment tha masking
    effect shows up properly but when I test the movie it just stacks
    the layers on top of each other as regular layers.
    Is this a bug? In previous falsh versions I think this method
    was working fine.
    Why is this happening? Attila

    that is correct. If you search the forum by "mask button" you
    will find posts
    going back many years saying that flash does not support
    masking within button.
    To work around that limitation, you can place your mask in
    movie clip and than
    that clip inside a button.

  • Button Symbol and text change.

    Hi,
    I have a button symbol with an Instance name of myButton that
    has a text field in it. The text field is dynamic and an Instance
    name of myText.
    I'm trying to change the text from a class I've created like
    so...
    myButton.myText.text = "Changed Text";
    I'm getting this...
    1119: Access of possibly undefined property myText through a
    reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton.
    Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong please.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Regards
    Simon.

    Is the TextField added in design time - that is you placed it
    using the Flash IDE? In that case you might not be able to
    reference it.
    Rather you need to add it in a DisplayObject container during
    runtime using the various SimpleButton state properties such as
    downState and upState. See the example at SimpleButton doc.

  • Frustrating flash buttons

    I've upgraded from GoLive and have installed flash
    buttons/text on 2 sites. I started working on a 3rd site and now
    every time I create a flash button/text I get the message :
    "invalid name". Usually the name is xxx.swf. Just when I was
    starting to like DreamWeaver.....arrrgh BTW I tried to post in the
    General Discussion but every variation of my "nickname" was
    supposedly taken--even when I just ran my finger across the
    keyboards as I did with this nickname. Thanks for any help.
    As a followup--I opened the index page from one of the other
    sites and created and saved a new flash button with no
    problem.

    > If that's the case why does Adobe promote using flash

    It's a good question. Adobe is offbase with this promotion,
    but they are
    desparate to convince people that the migration is easy. It's
    not.
    Especially not if you don't have good facility with HTML and
    CSS. Garrick
    Chow should be ashamed of himself.
    I have seen that invalid name error alert mentioned by others
    from time to
    time, but I'm not sure what is triggering it. Being as how I
    wouldn't dream
    of using Flash Text or Flash Buttons, I can't really help
    you. But were you
    not using them at all, it goes without saying that you
    wouldn't have to
    crack this nut. Why are you using them?

  • Where is flash button

    Hi all
    I'm looking for flash button on dreamwaver cs4 I can not find
    it where is it
    Thanks for help.

    Thankfully, it's been removed, as has Flash text.
    Using Flash for buttons or content was a bad idea 10 years
    ago, and it's
    even worse now.

  • Just turned on my MacBook and it has a flashing file symbol...Help?

    Switched on the MacBook and it has a flashing file symbol with a Question mark. What does this mean the user manual was rubbish...

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It means that the MacBook couldn't detect any bootable partition to start from. It usually means that the hard disk is damaged, but it could also mean that your computer has forgotten the startup disk.
    First, turn off your MacBook and turn it on holding the Option (Alt) key, so you will see all bootable partitions in the display. If you can see the OS X partition, select it, and after starting, open System Preferences > Startup Disk, and select the OS X partition.
    If it doesn't work, it probably means that the hard drive is damaged, but we should check it. To do it, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting to start in Recovery HD and open Disk Utility. Then, choose "Macintosh HD" in the sidebar and repair the drive. If it couldn't be repaired, you need a new hard disk
