Specific region mouse over effect(Button 1 fades out and Button 2 fades in).

Dear All -
I am new to Flash CS5 and building Flash navigation bar with buttons on it.
Below is my problem description that I want to solve with your help.
I have a rectangular bar and placed one small button(Button 1) on this bar. Also, I have similar button(Button 2) with some graphics on it which is of similar size as to previous Button 1.
Button 1 - Without graphic.
Button 2 - With graphic on it.
What I want is that, whenever mouse is taken over Button 1 placed on the rectangular bar, it should fade out and simultaneously Button 2 should fade in. I want only button region to be sensitive to this mouse over effect and not the complete rectangular bar.
Kindly let me know how can I define the specific region(button region only) to be sensitive to mouse over effect in flash, and how to place Button 1 and Button 2 in layers so that both are at the same positition(so that there is no displacement of button detected).
Thank You,
Saurabh Khanna.

Hello -
Thank you for the reply. Button 1 does not have glowing effect, whereas Button 2 has a glowing effect. So what I wanted is that when initially Button 1 is loaded during page load, when I mouse over Button 1, Button 1 would fade out and Button 2 sitting behind Button 1 would automatically look like fade in(due to gradual fad out of Button 1 on top of Button 2).
I could do this now, and would like to Thank you for your reply.
I did this by creating movie clip on "Over" event of Button 1 and changing its Alpha property. But now what I want is how to gradually fade out, means when I remove my mouse from over button, then Button 2 should fade out gradually which will automatically make Button 1 fade in gradually.
I could not find the "Out" event just like we have "Over" event for Button, so I assume this can only be done using ActionScript somehow.
Let me know if I am going correct with my assumption, and possibly if you could help me achieve the remaining half(fading out gradually when mouse is removed from the button).
Thank You once again for your reply.
Thank You,
Saurabh Khanna.

One more nugget: Chart zoom with the "Mouse Over" effect

Hello all.
Just read my signature first, it might explain a lot. I do not intend to compete with Darren and I don't think this "nugget" (at least it supposed to be one) will amaze any of the LV veterans and this forum is rich of them. But maybe it will bring some new ideas to some of you or maybe it will be useful for some LV beginners (like me). It is very likely, my code will have some lapses, but please be gentle pointing that out to me. If you feel a need, you can always optimize the code and develope it further. Just don't forget to share!
So back to the point.
I am developing a project using LV. In my program there is a waveform chart which has to show 4 plots. Depending on the length of the X Scale, it sometimes gets hard to see the plots clearly because of their density.So I decided that I need a tool, which would zoom the chart in. And this is what I have came up with after a few "Google" searches to check which part of the bike is already invented and also a bit of programming by myself.
Maybe you guys (at least the veterans) know the BetterVIEW Consulting LV example where they have implemented the Mouse Over effect. So a part of their example has been used in this tool and part of the credit must go to them. I thank them a lot
This tool uses a cluster and its property of visibility to show/hide the cluster depending on if the current position of the mouse cursor is in the desired range or not. The program also gets the image of the chart and returns the subset of the image. The subset is taken for the area arounf the mouse cursor. So if you move the mouse, the zoomed in area will also chage in response. After that, the subset of the image is zoomed in for better view.
The user might chage the zoom factor during the execution. Also it is possible to turn the zoom option On or Off if you don't wish to see it for the moment.
This is how the front panel looks like:
And this is the image of the block diagram (see the attached files for the vi, the VI Snippet tool distorts the code too much, so I haven't added it):
I haven't found anything the same in the forum. Yet I'm a newbie here and I don't have that much experience surfing it. If it wouldn't be something new (in the forum, not necessarily to some of you personally), just ignore the thread. I hope this was worth your time and your attention.
Good coding

While evaluating my code please have in mind that I am a LV novice. Therefore sometimes my code might violate some coding rules that I have to learn about myself. But how else could I do that...

Very nice Giedrius.
It takes guts to "step up to the chalk board" so I will do what i can to give you some ideas to think about. This is similar to the type of feedback I offer durring our in-house code reviews.
1) The floating property nodes outside the loop are not sequenced by wires so they could execute after the loop starts. Sometimes this could cause weird errors. Seq with the error cluster.
2) Property nodes can be re-sized so you can apply more than one property setting in the same call. Property node have to execute in the UI thread (which is single threaded) so using a single nodes will force a single context switch rather than one for each.
3) Setting the same property repeatedly in a loop just burns CPU. THe Scale min for both X an Y can be moved outside the loop ?
4) THe Wait Until Next ms" function does not get used in any of my code. It is not a way to get a fixed wait but rather a random wait. If you code completes 1 ms after the next multiple, the delay is double less 1 ms. If you have multiple loops using them and it f the delay for each are not unique prime numbers, then the "Wait until next ms multiple" is a good (cough cough) way of getting them all to wake up at the same time and fight for the CPU.
5)An Event Struture to monitor mouse enter/leave and mouse move (this would have to be a sepearte loop) is easier on the CPU than polling.
6) Is that math in the case to handle the Chart position on the FP? If so then using the property nodes for the chart to find its postion will let you code adapt to GUI changes.
7) Right to left wires are not well recieved.
8) A Bundle by Name is prefered over a "Bundle" since it is self documenting. I know the Picture function so I can see that is the rectangle you are specifying but reader not famliar with that function would not be able to "READ" the code without poking at it.
9) THe event structure would also help with setting the Zoom factor. Only poke it when you have to.
That is all that comes to mind at the moment.
Again thank you!

I would like to create the same mouse over effect that is used on the home page of Industrial Light

I would like to create the same mouse over effect that is used on the home page of Industrial Light & Magic website. http://ilm.com
Could someone please let me know what the code or effect that is used. Thanks.

It appears there are two slideshows running in parallel where a mask that follows the mouse displays one of them. THe one you see in the moving mask is on top of the other.
If you were to search Google for a custom cursor tutorial you will probably end up with most of what you need for getting the mask to follow the mouse.

Mouse Over Effect

Here is what I want to do in Keynote '08:
I want to make an object appear when the mouse cursor goes over/near it. I think it's called a "mouse over" effect.
To help illustrate:
1. I want my Keynote slides as uncluttered as possible and,
2. I want to start a choice of other slides or effects. Mouse over allows me to hide these in plain sight, so to speak, until I mouse over one of the triggers.
How do I do this? Thanks, JLG [email [email protected] if I'm not clear above.]

Welcome to the forums!
Mouseover effects are not available in Keynote. You can have transparent (and therefore invisible) buttons with hyperlinks, but Keynote will only take action on a click, not a cursor hover.

Mouse over solution for jdk1.0

hi all,
I am interested in making the equivalent of a mouse over solution for a java applet.
Basically I'll have approximately 100 Rectangle objects representing images on the applet.
When the person moves the mouse over these 100 rectangle objects, i'll use contains() method to determine if the mouse is over the object in question.
If true, the image will be changed to represent the mouse over event .
I thought for a msecond about looping through all the rectangle objects each time the mouse moves. but that seemed impractical since the mouse can move pretty quickly.
It seemed to me the best option was to extend the Rectangle object and put an event listener on it . so that the Rectangle object can be triggered at the same time or individually as needed in response to the mousemove event .
Does anyone have any thoughts about that ?
does anyone know how I would possible implement something like that for java 1.0
thanks
stev

it seems like I have to extend Component some how to get access to enableEvents method.
Here is my class
class ListeningRectangle extends Rectangle{
     public ListeningRectangle(int w, int x, int y, int z, Component c){
          super(w,x,y,z);
          c.enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK);
     public void mouseMoved (MouseEvent me) {
     System.out.println("event has been received by rectangle");
I am using this class in conjunction with a java applet (targetted to 1.0-1.1 ).
I'm passing a reference of the applet in to create this ListeningRectangle like this
new ListeningRectangle(a,b,c,d,this);
my objective is to have about 100 different rectangle areas defined on the java applet.
and when the person moves the moves the mouse of the applet rapidly, only the appropriate ListeningRectangle object would respond.
any ideas on how to get this done ? ?

Mouse over event for every word inside a text?

I want to do a separate mouse over event for every word inside a text.
or at least get the string below the mouse cursor.
any hint?
henry

There are no events for it but you can use TextField.getCharIndexAtPoint() to determine the character where the mouse is over, and from there you can work out the word where the mouse is over.

Supported pdf versions and mouse over problem for Xcelsius 2008 SP3

Hi,
Have below queries regarding Xcelsuis 2008 SP3.
(1) Encountered last character truncation problem for the x-axis and y-axis labels when viewed using adobe reader versions higher than 9.0.0. Viewing the pdf doc using adobe reader v9.0.0 has no label truncation problem. Preview in Xcesius is also ok.
(a) Y-axis label - eg. No. of students. The last char [s] is truncated when exported to pdf.
(b) X-axis label u2013 when labels are oriented vertically, they are very close to the x-axis. The last char is truncated.
Please advise what is the supported pdf versions for Xcelsius 2008?
Any workaround to overcome the truncation problem?
(2) Mouseover in charts. When the series name has < symbol, Xcelsius truncates the remaining text that's after the < symbol.
Is this a limitation that < symbol cannot be used? Any workarond for this? Any document to reference on the limitations of Xcelsius? e.g. If series name is '>1 and <=2', mouse over desc becomes '>1 and '.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi ,,There are a lot of developments in SP3 version. But some loopholes which I caughtu2026
1. The value button/spinner is no longer supporting a cell having some formula. Also the time it is taking to load data which depends on value button/spinner as a result of change in it, is comparably very high as compared to earlier version.
2. Still there is no component like pre-load animation. So it is difficult to know weather the tool is running or not when one selects an option in some selector.
3. One still finds it difficult to work with a large range of data/complex spread sheet in xcelsius as it crashes while exporting.
4. Export to excel still needs Tomcat Web server,Java help. It is not simplified.

How to define mouse-over event for a icon

Hello,
I have defined a icon for a panel in my plugin. I want that the icon should be changed on mouse over event.
The code for icon is given below.
resource PanelList (kDNDListsPaletteResourceID) {
                    // 1st panel in the list
                    kDNDListsPaletteResourceID,                    // Resource ID for this panel (use SDK default rsrc ID)
                    kIBPluginPluginID,                                             // ID of plug-in that owns this panel
          #if CSVER >= 4
                    kIsResizable,
          #else
                    isResizable,
          #endif
                    kIBClientPluginDNDPanelWidgetActionID,          // Action ID to show/hide the panel
                    kIBClientPluginDNDPanelTitleKey,               // Shows up in the Window list.
                    "",                                                           // Alternate menu path of the form "Main:Foo" if you want your palette menu item in a second place
                    0.0,                                                                                     // Alternate Menu position Alternate Menu position for determining menu order
                    kPlusIconPNGIconRsrcID, kIBPluginPluginID,                                                            // Rsrc ID, Plugin ID for a PNG icon resource to use for this palette
                    c_Panel
Where should I give the resourceID of the other icon?

Hi
First change the name from kPlusIconPNGIconRsrcID to kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID
so "I" will indicate that your icon is inactive
Create another resource id like:
#define kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID 15
#define kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID 15
Define paths to the icons
resource PNGA(kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_I.png" // Inactive icon
resource PNGR(kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_A.png" // Active icon
