Make animated rollover in Flash for Muse buttons

Hello.
I am new to Adobe Muse, but more familliar with Flash. I am also new to HTML.
I am wondering if it is possible to make a rollover animation in Flash to play as a rollover animation for buttons in Muse. I would like it so that when the mouse curser hovers over the button, it plays a simple animation of appering and dissapering stars over the text. I have heard of Adobe Edge, but I am not really familiar with it, so if there is any specific setup for a Flash rollover animation e.g. HTML5 Canvas or whatever, please let me know. Also, I am wondering if a HTML5 canvas Flash animation will play on phones and tablets, or if anything made with Flash using whatever setup, will even work on phones and tablets.
Thank you for your suggestions and assistance.

You may need to create the fully function button with all states and mouse interactivity in Flash itself and then place it in Muse and apply a link to it.
Since buttons with states in Muse use background fills which can only be certain image types like PNG, JPG, etc. Since you can't apply a SWF as a CSS background fill, it won't be possible to use it for one of the states of the button.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Vikas

Can i make Animations with Adobe Flash CS3 Professionals?

can i make Animations with Adobe Flash CS3 Professionals? my
goal is to make a Animation Serie But i got no Expereience!
Is it any place i can learn how to use Adobe Flash CS3
Professionals? Can i get a tutorial/training thing on
www.adobe.com?

Ha!
Just scratch the surface by using the search functions on
this site or google - thousands of
websites that showcase flash animations since version 3 back
in the late 90's - many websites have
dedicated themselves to flash training and tutorials over the
years.
Basically, anything on the web that looks animated, right
click over it and 9 times out of ten it
will say "Flash".

What would the CODE be, in Flash, for making buttons transparent on MOUSEOVER?

I am building my site in Flash, and I have these thumbnails, that when moused over, a larger version pops up.
Problem is, they are being obscured by the other thumbs. See for yourself:
http://www.andreadams.com/Andre_Adams_products_games.htm
(also attaching a jpeg example of what I'm talkin about)
I tried to make the buttons transparent, put them on different layers, all this stuff, nothing worked. I figured there must be some code to make it work, like, "on mouseover, make buttons A, B, C transparent." Something like that, just have no idea how to write it.
If someone could help me out it would be much appreciated! I will reward you with a copy of my Cartoon Express CD collection--500 vector images. No joke!
cheers, Andre

The more correct way to deal with this is to manage the depths of the movieclips/buttons so that whichever is currently being rolled over is brought to the top of the pecking order. It may require a little bit of redesign, but not necessarily. How you go about mamanging the depths depends on what version of actionscript you're using. In AS2 you want to look into the swapDepths() method, and in AS3 you want to look into the setChildIndex() method.
To answer the title question, to make something transparent, like a button or a movieclip, you set the alpha/_alpha (AS3/AS2) property to 0. But in doing that you will probably be creating a problem because transparent objects can still interact with a mouse. Your better bet is to set the visible/_visible property to false... invisible objects won't interact with mice.

You can't. Adobe doesn't make a version of Flash for iOS.

Flash for jailbroken iphones?

Now that jailbreaking has been determined as legal in the US, what are the chances that Adobe will make a version of flash for jailbroken iphones? It would be a great way to get back at Apple, since it'll convinve more people to jailbreak, and Apple will have to let flash onto the iphone if it wants people to stop jailbreaking... Would Adobe do something like that? Are there any legal problems with this?

Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?

Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?
All I can do now is change the skin design and that's it, I can't animate between states like I can with Flash Builder skins. So is there a way to do that, any technique or I have to create a button component from scratch?
Thanks!

simplebuttons have upState etc properties you can use to assign movieclips to the 3 states. you can use the currentFrame property of movieclps to (appear to) smoothly transition from one state to another.

Animated Rollover for Muse

Hi, I'm trying to create an animated rollover for use in Muse (not a button, JUST a rollover) using Edge Animate, like the example on this page (scroll or click Features): PozitivA - Multipurpose One Page Muse Template
It doesn't seem like I am able to insert the animation as a state or within a state button. How can I go about accomplishing this?
Thank you.

Thank you! I figured it out via this tutorial after reading your answer: Adobe Edge Animate Interactive Rollover Web Buttons Tutorial - YouTube
I'm completely new to Edge Animate

How do you make an animated gif activate when a corresponding button is selected?

I am working on a DVD menu using Photoshop and Encore. I currently have a map as a background and a gif animation of a radar ping. The radar ping has transparent parts so that it shows up in front of the map it will be placed on. I want the radar ping gif to animate when it is selected, but I cannot make it animate. When I tried to place the animated gif into the DVD, it became a static image with 50 layers, instead of an animation with 50 frames. When I replaced the gif with a static image, it still caused problems because when I made it into one of the button's highlights, the button overlapped the other buttons, causing those to highlight as well.
Summary: Ideally, I want to add various gifs that will activate when the corresponding menu/chapter buttons are selected.
Failing that, I would be happy just to know how to add an animated gif to my DVD menu background.

You have two problems. The first is that an animated gif has no special status in DVD authoring. It is an anmiation. How do you get animations into a DVD project? You import them as movies - either as assets that get puit on timelines, or assets that become part of a motion background.
Yes, Encore has a special feature of making animated thumbnails, but this is just a fancy way of putting thumbnail-sized bits of video into a video background of a menu.
I think you resolve the animated gif issue if you convert it to a video format Encore understands.
http://helpx.adobe.com/encore/using/importing-assets.html#supported_file_formats_for_impor t
The second issue is that you want a button highlight to be an animation. Also not part of the DVD spec or what Encore will do. You can fake this, by having a button autoactivate and to go to a different menu that has the animation for that button as part of the background. You create as many menus as you have buttons with that characteristic.
Note that a mouseover won't autoactivate, so this doesn't work on a computer the way solme users would like.
Scripting is a way some authoring applications can handle such things, but Encore does not provide scripting.

Need to make cool rollover buttons

Hello all,
This is for a commercial website I'm working on and I hit a snag with.
Here's what I'm trying to do: On the site header, there are topics such as, "Apartments" and the like. What the client wants is to be able to have the viewer rollover the word, "Apartments" and have two options appear over the word. Something like, "One Bed Room" and "Two Bed Room". The visitor could then mouse up and click the option they want to see, navigating the site to that page. Oh, and they want the all the words to change color as well, like in a normal rollover link.
Any thoughts? I know how to make buttons that change when you rollover them, but getting text to appear and then to have two separate links to pick from has me stymied. Thanks!

Hmmm. That could work!
if you are into post editing, iweb (out the box) has no facilities to add HTML, CSS nor javascript directly onto the page. so most people post edit.
and if you think of html snippet widget, forget it because iweb html snippet widget only adds stuff to a markup page and shows it thru an iframe element...
you have to make a very big area for the snippet - if the drop down is very long; then you will have to get the links to open in the same window... on and on...
that said, you can build your own widgets (iweb3) to overcome the above problems only (if only) you know iweb, HTML, DOM, CSS and javascript... here is example built with my 3 widgets:

Hi Tuttle and Marlinespike,
"Also, the breadcrumbs are inconsistent in that there is no link back to the Category level from some individual forums, e.g.,
We see: Apple.com > Support > Discussions > PowerBook G4 (15-inch Aluminum) > Using Your PowerBook G4 15-inch Aluminum
Where we might expect to see: Apple.com > Support > Discussions > PowerBook > PowerBook G4 (15-inch Aluminum) > Using Your PowerBook G4 15-inch Aluminum"
Personally I find this consistent:
Categories and Forums are two different things, so the Categories link is on a different level
( Post New Topic - Subscribe to Forum - Mark All Topics as Read - Back to Category ).
Tuttle your version too is consistent though.
Now perhaps the whole thing is not a good idea and finally the old system was better?
I don't know, but personally I jumped on the "Categories" new features at once, found them very well designed and helpful, and am now very disappointed that they've been taken "temporarily" away.
About "the large "Apple Discussions" logo" that should be a link to Apple Discussions:
Sorry, I must be blind, I don't see what you mean.
When I need to go back to the Home page, I just click the
Apple.com > Support > Discussions > Using Apple Discussions > Feedback about New Discussions
link.
Or I use my bookmark. Or I use my browser's "command-arrowleft" if it was no too far.
As you can see, there is something I am missing in your explanations. Can you please tell me what was this feature that you miss so much, and how are you redirected too much (or instead?) to Apple main page?
Thanks!

Random Animation for 4 Buttons

Hello lovely people. I seek help. I appologise but I have no competency with Javascript.
I have 4 buttons wich are 4 different symbols. Each button has a simple 1second animation. I have a mouseover and a mouseout script attached to an invisable rectangle over each button/symbol.
mouseover
sym.play();
mouseout
sym.playReverse();
When the mouse enters a button it plays the animation forward. When the mouse leaves the button the animation plays in reverse.
What I want is the page to load and prior to a user placing the mouse cusor in one of the buttons. A button to be chosen at random, the button animation to play. Once the animation is complete I want it to play in reverse. Then choose another button at random and repeat infintely until a user places the mouseover a button. When the user places a mouse cursor over a button I want the button to check if it's at the end of the buttons animation. If the button is at the end of the animation I want the buttom animation state to stop. If the button is not at the end of the animation I want it to play to the end of the animation. I also want to check the animation state of all the other buttons. If any of the animations are in the process of playing or at the end of their animation I want them reversed.
I currently have a script attached to the stage.
var randomNum = Math.floor((Math.random()*4)+1);
if (randomNum == 1){
          sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("TL").play(0);
else if (randomNum == 2){
          sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("TR").play(0);
else if (randomNum == 3){
          sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("BL").play(0);
else {
          sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("BR").play(0);
When the page loads it selects a button at random and plays the animation.
You can view the sample page here. http://www.fnwireless.net/Test%204%20Buttons.html
A big thankyou to anyone who posts a reply. If you need any further clarrification for my ramblings please let me know.

Hi,
From what I understood from your explanation , I have prepared a sample and attached it here . Please take a look at it . Hope it helps .

Link doesn't work and makes animation loop

i put this in actionscript
on(release)
getURL("htt://glennbeyer.freeiz.com/unreal.html");
It doesn't work and it makes the animation loop instead of stopping. Anyone know how to fix this?
Is there a way to upload the files to this forum so someone can look at it?

Select the button instance on the stage and in the properties panel where it says <Instance Name>, enter the name topLeftBtn, and be sure to do it in every keyframe for that button.
The error you are getting is not what I would suspect what I am saying to do will cure though. The error message makes me think you are using that button's name somewhere else incorrectly. YOu should go into your Publish Settings and in the Flash section select the option to Permit Debugging. Then your error message should include the line number where the error is occuring.
