Making a button invisible with ActionSctript 3?

I have one button instance that stretches across many frames, and I would like to make it invisible in some of the frames and visible in others. How do I do this with ActionScript 3?
thanks

Couldn't wait, eh!... kidding... btnName.visible = true; btnName.visible = false;

Making ".DS_Store" and ".localized" Files Invisible With Cocktail

I got Cocktail and I know that these files shouldn't be deleted
How exactly would I go about making these files invisible with cocktail? All I see is delete or prevent ".ds_store files". And what about these ".localize" files? does it take care of that along with ds store?

Any files that have names that begin with a "." are supposed to be invisible on your Mac.
You might have used Cocktail and gone to the "Interface" button and clicked on the "Show invisible Items" box. If so uncheck the box. You might have to log out and then back in to see a difference.
A .DS_Store file holds the information which controls the way a folder will be opened; i.e., the shape and size of the window, the position of the window on the desktop and whether file, folder or icon view has been selected. If you were to delete the .DS_Store the folder would revert to the system default next time it is opened and a new blank .DS_Store would appear (invisibly).
The only problem with .DS_Store files is that they confuse Windows users because they do show up on network shared drives, and flash drives that are formatted with Fat32.
They actually help the user keep individual folders working in a layout they choose and some people get upset when all their hard work is destroyed by having the system revert the View settings to the system default.
I don't know much about the .localized files. I suspect they are used by the system help files and other settings to know what language and measurements to use in system dialogs and messages. I could be wrong here, but they are still supposed to be invisible on a Mac.

Making custom buttons dissappear when not selected

I am trying to get around the limitiation of not being able to add audio to a layered menu item.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think if I create my own buttons (that would reflect the same look as the active layers of the Photoshop file) then I could have audio in the Menu with the same look using the buttons I create.
Here is my question ... Is it possible to have a button dissappear when its not in the "activated" or "selected" state? I figure that I can create the button to look like the same active state and have the normal state revealed in the background graphic when the button is deselected. I just don't know how to make the button invisible or transparent when its not "selected" or "activated"
Thanks in advance
Lou ..

Yes use overlays for the buttons and do not highlight them in normal state (though you may consider having something showing for normal state so people know it is there as oppossed to totally not visibale)

Making a button rollover change a movie clip's frame

Hi again everyone,
I knew how to do this in AS2 but now I am having problems
with making a button on the stage goto a frame in a movie clip on
the stage.
I've attached a sample of my code below, hopefully you'll see
the error and be able to point it out to me?
I have a movie clip on the stage that has different
information in different frames. I want to make it so that when
someone rolls over the button, the movie clip fades in and goes to
the correct frame to display the information.
With this setup the way it is below, I keep getting "Warning:
3590: void used where a Boolean value was expected. The expression
will be type coerced to Boolean.
I know where the problem is happening, "function
XXX(event:MouseEvent):void {navigateToURL(XXXweb)}"
How can I write this differently and eliminate this problem?
Thanks,
Jeremiah

I'll give that a shot, thanks!
A follow up question to that one, is there a way to make it
so that I can have one rolled over function applied to several
buttons / frames in the movie clip? This movie clip has 50+ frames
in it and if I could reduce my coding, it would make life a lot
easier.
Thanks,
Jeremiah

Can't make buttons invisible

I am trying to use buttons to show word definitions on mouse rollover. The definition is in the tooltip and is used as the label. The definition shows, but I can't make the button invisible. It shows as a solid block with the label. I've changed the Appearance to no line and no fill, but nothing changes.

Acrobat X Pro. Could it be that I have to produce the document for distribution before they disappear?
I've inserted a graphic with all the settings I have used, but it may not be readable. I've picked Hidden and no line or background, but it still shows ups.
Thanks for your help.

HTMLB How made Radio Button invisible ?

Hi all,
Is it possible to make invisible my Radio Button in HTMLB ?
Best regards.

Hello,
You can disable the radio button by using:
disabled="TRUE" if you are using the JSP Taglib or setEnabled(false) if you are using the Classlib.
In terms of making your radio button invisible, maybe you could wrap the control in a JSP if/else statement that would not render the content unless a certain condition is met-->thus making it "invisible".
Hope this helps,
Marty

Make button invisible when flv starts again

Hi,
Please, can some one help me and tell me how to have a button
instance become invisible when the play button from the skin.swf
file is clicked? There may be another way to acomplish what I am
trying to do.
I have a Flash 8 file with a FLVPlayback component pointing
to a FLV file. I am using an external skin for the controls. When
the video is finished I have it displaying a button, but if the
person wants to start the video again the button needs to become
invisible again. I am assuming I need to create an actionscript
that says if the video is playing (at all ) the button is
invisible. But how?.. is the big question for me.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
thepopguy

This is possible. You need actionscript to check the status
of the video, if it is playing then the button goes invisible. This
is called an event listener. You need to give the component an
instance name - like vid. Then use this code on the frame:
//listen for movie to play
var vidList:Object = new Object();
vidList.playing = function(){
button1._visible = false;
//any other actions go here
vid.addEventListener ("playing",vidList);
stop;
//listen for movie to stop
var vidList2:Object = new Object();
vidList2.stopped = function(){
button1._visible = true;
//any other actions go here
vid.addEventListener ("stopped",vidList2);
stop;
============
This code will actually listen for the movie to play, and
then it will make the button invisible. It also listens for the
movie to stop, and it make it visible again.

I was making new Apple ID with my other Email on iTunes, but I canceled the process on payment page. After a while I went to make a new ID with same Email but it says the Email is already in use! what should i do?

You will need to try changing the email address on the first account and see if you can then re-use it on a new account - you can try changing the email address via http://appleid.apple.com or by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes (if you don't have a spare email account then you can create one via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com)

iTunes is updated and works fine and I am able to log onto my account. When I go to purchase a song, I get the error message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". I've tried different methods: changing passwords, making a new account with another email address, and emailing itunes tech support. I am curious as to how many others have been experiencing the same issue. When I googled the error, it seemed like it was happening extremely often with many people.
We all love their products, but they always come with a lot of issues and horrible customer support.
My apple Id is [email protected]

My Iphone 4 is telling me the same thing and I believe I figured out what the problem is. I had some fraudulent charges on my itunes account, so I call my bank and disputed the charges. Right after I did that, I started getting the message "Your apple ID has been disabled." I just realized today that the charges are not fraudulent, they are "in app purchases." One of my daughters downloaded the game Top Girl which is FREE, but in the game Top Girl you use money in the game to purchase things. It just so happens that the money you use to purchase things is real money MY Money!!!. My daughter thought she was using play money in the game and had no idea she was using real money. She spent $106.00 buying stuff. Now I have to call the bank and tell them to release the hold and pay Itunes. I'm hoping this solves the problem. Here is the link to learn how to disable "in app purchase" on your iphone or ipad.

I use a two button mouse with my Mac Book Pro. It works fine, but after installing Lion, the mouse wheel goes in reverse of what it did (rolling the wheel towards your palm goes up not down the page). Anyone know how to fix this?

My iphone doesnt want to start.all it shows is the apple icon.nothing more.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button.what can i do .thanks

my iphone 4 doesnt want to start . all it shows is the apple icon.i have tried holding the home button together with the lock button. nothing seems to work . please help.

Plug the iPhone in with the Wall Charger. Then while plugged in do the Reset again, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone Restarts. This usually begins to happen in less than 20 seconds time.
If you this does not work you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone. If you decide to do this, connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both the Home and Power buttons until the iPhone is detected by iTunes in Recovery Mode, this takes about 20 seconds time. Restore your iPhone.
If this does not work, you can try to Restore the Firmware on your iPhone in DFU Mode. Connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes open. Hold both Home and Power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release the Power Button and keep holding the Home Button until iTunes recognizes the iPhone in Recovery Mode, about 20 seconds more time. Restore the iPhone.
If this does not work and you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take your iPhone to Apple for resolution of the problem.

[Solved] Keep the last button pressed with a custom style

Hello,
I have a VBox with 20 buttons and I have this style applied (menu.css) (only for VBox wrapper):
.button:focused {
    -fx-background-color: #0768A9;
    -fx-text-fill: #FFFFFF;
But when I pressed other button outside the VBox the style disappears, because the other button get the focus.
I'm afraid I'm taking the wrong way.
How I can do to keep the last button pressed with a custom style? (Only for buttons containing the VBox).
Best regards

I created a simple method to change background colors in buttons:
    private void setSelectedBtnStyle(Button bboat) {
// Change style oldSelectedBoat
    selectedBoat.setStyle("-fx-background-color: white;-fx-text-fill: black;");
    // oldSelectedBoat var change to newSelectedBoat
    this.selectedBoat = bboat;
// Change style newSelectedBoat
    selectedBoat.setStyle("-fx-background-color: #0768A9;-fx-text-fill: #FFFFFF;");;
Surely not the best solution, but it works for me.
Best regards.

My iPhone 4S on iOS7 is stuck on Apple Logo, and it goes off, then back to Apple Logo again for hours. Pressing home button together with sleep button does not help. Plugging the phone to Mac and restart does not help either. What do I do?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons. Click the Update or Restore button that iTunes offers.

Set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value

Hi,
I am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.3.0. I need to set a default value for a radio button populated with a List of value(Yes/No). Here's the selectonechoice code.
<af:selectOneRadio value="#{bindings.Code.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.Code.label}"
required="#{bindings.Code.hints.mandatory}"
shortDesc="#{bindings.Code.hints.tooltip}"
id="sor1" autoSubmit="true"
valuePassThru="true" layout="horizontal">
<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.Code.items}" id="si1"/>
</af:selectOneRadio>
I want to have the selectonechoice set to No by default. In the previous versions, I set the default value in the base attribute VO. But it is not working in the new version.
Thanks

Hi,
this should work in JDeveloper 11.1.1.3 the same as in 11.1.1.2. If it doesn't then it is better to file a bug than to work around it
