How to can I add a close button within a loadmovie swf

I made a list of words, which are links. When you rollover the text it loads a graphic with definitions to the lists of words. I made the (graphic with definitions) a "swf" and I used the loadmovie script to load the swf.
I added a button within the swf, to close the swf, and used the unload movie script to close the swf.
Here's the problem, the swf loads but when I try to close the swf by using the button, nothing happens.
Is this because I added the button within the swf. Or better yet, what script should I use to close the swf. I using AS2.
thanks for any help

For the button's unloading code try using:
unloadMovie(this);
Or
_parent.unloadMovie(this);

Can I add a Close button to a popup window?

My RoboHelp 10 project has nested popup windows (that is, I can open a popup window within a popup window within a popup window). The problem is, when I close the popup window at the lowest level, all of them close simultaneously. This is not good for navigation, particularly if the user is following instructions in the popup window and needs to go back up one popup window level.
Is there a method by which I can close each individual popup window, for example, by adding a Close button to them? In other words, can I change the format of the popup windows?
Your help will be much appreciated in finding a solution to this problem because it is fundamental to the way we want our Help to function. If a solution can not be found, we may have to change to another product to produce our Help.

Hi,
You can create a close buton by creating a link as follows with the following address:
javascript:self.close()
But I'm not sure whether this will work correctly with RoboHelp generated popups.
Another question: why would you want multiple popups? Wouldn't it be better to create a popup that can tthen redirect to another topic? Having lots of windows wil become very confusing very fast.
Greet,
Willam

How can I put the close button in the mainframe of the dialog?

Hi all,
I am creating a new dialog and I would like to konw...
How can I put the close button in the mainframe of the dialog?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Juanma.

Juanma,
Usually, a dialog would have an OK and a Cancel button, both can be served as the close button, but if user clicks the ok button (DefaultButtonWidget) to close the dialog, your dialog controller's (if it is based on CDialogController) ApplyDialogFields will get called so you can react to the OK action, otherwise, if user clicks the cancel button (CancelButtonWidget), nothing will happen. The dialog simply is dismissed.
See BasicDialog SDK sample to see how to add DefaultButtonWidget and CancelButtonWidget to a dialog.
Thanks!

Hi,
If you want to remove the add-ins of Office 2010 programs, you need to remove it from control panel.
For example, if you use Excel, please try to follow the link to delete the add-ins:

If I misunderstand something, please let me know.

How to set custom size of Close Button e.g. 32x32 of Title Window in Flex 4

How to set custom size of Close Button e.g. 32x32 of Title Window in Flex 4?

Hi
Here is the code of the Button in the skin class of spark title window.
<s:Button id="closeButton" skinClass="spark.skins.spark.TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin"
width="15" height="15" right="7" top="7" />
So first change the default height and width from 15 to 32. Then in the Button Skin class i.e. spark.skins.spark.TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin change paths to modify the cross symbol.
Hope this helps

Can;t add actionscript to button

hey guys, i've created a button from a piece of text in flas
CS3, and i want to add some actionscript to skip to another frame
on mouse click, i've done it before on flash 8, and it worked but
on CS3 it says "current selection cannot have actions applied to
it". anyone know why and how i can get round it?
cheers,
Curtis.

your buttons are being controlled by a timeline based tween
and therefore will not become operable until they encounter the
code responsible for their events on the timeline. use some script
for your fades instead of relying on the time line, that way you
can have the buttons and all their necessary code on the same frame
- in your case frame 1 - (make sure your code is on a layer labeled
"actions" atop all your other layers - nothing should ever be on
your "actions" layer except script).

Can't add actionscript to buttons

Hi, I am currently trying to make a game in AS3 with forward and back buttons. I have drawn my buttons and converted them to symbol (button), but when I select the button and press F9 to add in the actions, this happens meaning I cannot add the script in:
can anyone please tell me what I have done wrong to not show the normal space where I add my script into?
EDIT: OK, I have worked out how to code buttons I think, but now whenever I do I keep getting this error message

you can't add code to objects using as3.
that's an feature of as1 that was (unfortunately) allowed with as2, but finally eliminated in as3.

Can I place a "Return Button" within a clip?

Is it possible to place a button within a video clip that would enable a user to return to the previous menu? I am using submenus and to return to the submenu requires going back to the main menu and then back into the submenu.
24 inch iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Is it possible to place a button within a video clip that would enable a user to return to the previous menu?
short answer is no. However you can add a button for the main menu
If you have a project with submenus, you can add a button that viewers can click to go back to the main menu.
To add a button for the main menu:
Open the menu where you want to add the button and choose Project > Add Title Menu Button.
Hope this helps.

How can I add custom toolbar buttons to load different TOCs?

In my WebHelp output, I want to have custom buttons on the toolbar that when clicked load a specific TOC in the left navigation pane. For example, when the user clicks the PC button, the PC TOC loads in the left pane. When the user clicks the VM button, the VM TOC loads in the left pane. All of the help files are managed in one project and some files will appear in both TOCs.
I think this should be possible but not sure how to make it happen. Is there some JavaScript that I should add to the custom toolbar item to load the TOC on click? How do I specify the TOC that I want to show for each button?
BTW - I'm using RoboHelp 8 (8.0.2) to generate WebHelp output. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi there
If you were to upgrade to RoboHelp 9 it would simplify your issue. Version 9 offers a new feature called Dynamic User-Centric Content (DUCC) and provides a nifty little drop-down selector in the Navigation Mini-toolbar.
As you are on version 8 the only way I can fathom you would manage this is by generating two different outputs. Each output would use its respective TOC. The Toolbar button in each project could be configured to open the other project.
You might first decry having to manage two outputs and all the files. But if you pick apart DUCC and the way it is configured by Adobe, it works in much the same manner. It's just hidden from your initial view.
Cheers... Rick
