XprtHelp: buttons in mc linked to labels on main timeline?

I am making a very simple site with one timeline. This seems
so simple but it isn't working: i created a mc that contains
several buttons with over states. I placed the mc in my navigation
menu with an invisible button to close it when user's mouse moves
off. Where do I link the buttons in this movie clip to labels on
the main timeline? It seems like I should select them in the mc,
and use gotoandStop on that label. But when I click them in testing
the movie, they don't work. I posted the (very) unfinished swf to
my url:
jkbeasley.com
Can anyone help? I am sitting here alone with no experienced
flashies to ask, and I hate when something so easy just will. not.
come. to. me!!! THANKS!!!!!!!

Hi
Seems straight forward enough - but it would be helpful if
you could post the .fla as well.
Thanx

In actionscript 3.0 how do i make a nested movie clip button go to a frame on the main timeline

I am making a website based in flash actionscript 3.0 i have a button nested in its own movie clip, because I have the button expanding to be able to read it i have figured out the only way to do this is by creating it as a movie clipa nd inside the movie clip creating it as a button
I added an event listener to the blog button by saying,
blog.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,gotoblog);
function gotoblog(evtobj:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop(2)
this part of the code works it goes to the 2nd frame of the timeline it is in and stops wich is a blown up version of the origanal symbol
i added on frame 2 a second command
blog.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK.gotoblogpage);
function gotoblogpage(evtobj:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop("blogframe")
trace("the blog button was clicked")
i have named the symbol blog and have name the frame of where the blog page is going to be "blogframe" this line of code at the bottom is where i run into trouble the output window in Flash is saying "The blog button was clicked" just like i want it to. no errors are accouring why than is the playhead not going to frame "blogframe"? if the button is working when i click it the code is right i belive the problem here is it does not want the playhead to go to the frame i want it to. So i gues my question is, how can i make a button withing a movie clip interact with the main timeline?

I have a similar problem if could please help me i'd really apreciate it!!
So i have a looping animation of some thumbnails, the hierarchy goes like this
Scene1(main timeline) -> imgBar(MC)->imgBarB(MC within the imgBar MC)
My buttons symbols are in the last MC "imgBarB" where i have this code:
ss1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, OneButtonClicked);
function OneButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void{
MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("ssbox1");
I want to control the Btns in my "imgBarB" MC to play a labeled frame(named "ssbox1") on another MC on the main timeline,this other MC goes like this:
Scene1(main timeline)->ssbox_mc(MC where my labeled frame is)

Use button on mc to perfrom function on main timeline

I Was wondering how (or if it is posiible) to use a button I
have in a movie clip to perform a function on the main timeline.
Specifically, I want the button in the movie clip to gotoAndStop on
a frame in the main timeline. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Then you would target the movie clip.
So you would give the mc an instance name (like myClip_mc )
then just add this into your code ....
button1.onRelease = function() {
_root.myClip_mc.gotoAndStop(20);
This would tell the myClip_mc to stop on frame 20. Providing
the mc is located in the main timeline that is.
You can see from the code that we are going to the _root and
looking for the myClip_mc. If it is held within another mc (say
Holder_mc) then the code would change to
_root.Holder_mc.myClip_mc.gotoAndStop(20;
for cs3 (actionscript 3) it would be this
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickHandler);
function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{
_root.myClip_mc.gotoAndStop(20);
Hope this helps
Alan

Button in mc to display image on main timeline

I have a movie clip (mc_menu) that sits on the main timeline. Inside mc_menu I have several buttons that display items inside the mc. I also need to display an image on the main timeline. I have converted the image to a movie clip (mc_01). I am using AS2.

My knowledge with AS is essentially non-existant. I added the following code on an actions layer in the movie clip (mc_menu):
_root.attachMovie(mc_forecaster2_test);
I do not have any code in the main timeline for this interaction.
I tried to place the mc_forecaster2_test on the main timeline stage, and put in code to make the visible false, and code in mc_menu to make the visible true, but so far, nothing has worked.

Buttons inside symbol to activate action on main timeline

Hello I currently have a scrollable symbol placed on my stage. Inside that symbol are buttons which when clicked I want to use to hide and show different images on my stage. I can currently get the roll over images to work but when clicked they do nothing. Each button has an action of when clicked show"name of image" hide"all other images"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, Tim Jaramillo
I have an identical problem I hope you can help. I have been puzzling with the parameters and set-up of the piece of code for a “slider” Left/Right you published here 3 days ago.
With the code available in Edge script panel, I try to address the main stage from de images in the “slider” symbol. When you click a thumbnail in the “slider” you see the right picture on the stage. Is it possible for you to explain how to do that?
Thanks

Help with button that goes back to main timeline from movieclip

I have a movie created that is broken down into sections on the timeline (home about contact etc)
Each section has a movieclip
I want to be able to be in the about movieclip and click a button that will bring you back to the main timeline contact section
Heres is the actionscript I am using to navigate the main timeline for each section
stop();
//handle events for buttons...
index.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
wind.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
turbines.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
services.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
invest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent){
//go to the section clicked on...
gotoAndStop(evtObj.target.name);

if that code is on the timeline of a movieclip whose parent is the main timeline, use:
MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop("frame label in main timeline");

Can't get button in sub movie to link back to main timeline

Hi All.....
First, thank you for helping me! I am pulling my hair out. I
know there is an easy answer to this question, but I can't figure
it out.
I have my main timeline (Scene 1) and then on frame 5, I have
a movie that plays for about 70 frames (within itself). On the main
timeline it is only 3 frames long, and I have an action at the top
layer to stop at the first frame.
At the end of the 70 frame movie, I have a "next" button; the
action is in normal mode;
on (press) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 11);
I am ultimately telling this button to go back to the main
timeline (scene 1) and continue on with the next movie.
When I publish, the movie goes through just fine, gets to the
next button, I press it and it goes to the 11th frame of the that
same movie, instead of the 11th frame of the main timeline (scene
1).
Help! I appreciate it...let me know if I left anything
out...........

better yet label the frame you like to target and target that
label
_root.gotoAndPlay("labelNameHere");
There is no scenes in SWF file upon export. So if you have 10
frame in scene 1
and 10 in scene 2, the frame 10 in scene two become frame
number 20.
The action sugested by FamousSeamus is not really correct
even tho it might work,
but as soon as you try to target frames across multiple
scenes, you can't refer to them
by their numbers unless it's one long scene only.

Add a button(not a link) in each row of a report

hi,
i need to add a button(not a link) in each row of a report. On clicking this button , the value in a specified column in database should change from yes to no.
How can i achieve this funcationality. I am using apex 4.2.
Please help!

I used the images in the report region query,
select
EMPNO,
ENAME,
JOB,
MGR,
HIREDATE,
SAL,
COMM,
DEPTNO,
decode(IS_COMM,'Y','<a href="#" onClick= javascript:pdelete('||a.EMPNO||');><img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#remove.gif" alt=""></a>','N','<a href="#" onClick= javascript:padd('||a.EMPNO||');><img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#value_ok.png" alt=""></a>','<a href="#" onClick= javascript:padd('||a.EMPNO||');><img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#value_ok.png" alt=""></a>') check_comm
from
test_emp aChanged the check_comm -> Display Text As as Standard Report Column. Created two items to save the value of 'EMPNO'. Javascript code in the page header as below,
function padd(pSub)
     $s('P8_ADD',pSub);
    doSubmit('ADD');
function pdelete(pSub)
     $s('P8_DELETE',pSub);
       doSubmit('DELETE');
}Created the processes with condition like Request=Expression1 based on the REQUEST returned by javascript function.
Thanks

I just uploaded the latest IPad software to my IPad and am now having loads of trouble with the device recognizing "online buttons", that is, links, etc.

I just uploaded the latest IPad software to my IPad and am now having loads of trouble with the device recognizing "online buttons", that is, links, etc. what can I do?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Can i make a button change anchor link when you scroll down the site?

I am trying to make a scroll site.. and i have navigation buttons on the right, a full menu, but also a "1 topic up" button and "1 topic down" button.
Is there any way that i can have those buttons change anchor link when you scroll down the site.
Example:
I am at home, then i press "1 topic down" and gets scrolled to the next topic on the website, but then i cant make the button change to link to the anchor below that, so the button becomes useless after that 1 press.
Is that in any way possible in Muse to make it change link?

Hi
You can try to create different buttons on page positions where down scrolling will be active with separate button actions. For example you click on "I topic down" , page scrolls and there is another button placed with "Next Topic down" , on click this would scroll the page more and similarly along the length of page.
Button with anchor link scrolling down the page cannot be used for different anchor links, creating different buttons with anchors is the solution.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Re deleting Play Movie button and associated links.

Hi - thanks in advance for any help to a newbie.
I have created an iDVD5 file from iMovie5. All went well with Chapter markers etc all coming through into my chosen theme. I started to customise the theme to my liking and noticed in the map area a file called 'Beginning' which was not one of my chapters. I saw that it was the start of the movie which I already had created a chapter marker for, and so I deleted it, thinking it superfluous. Subsequently, I noticed that the 'Play Movie" button had disappeared from the opening screen. The chapters are all intact and I can access and play these in the usual way. I can't, however, opt to play the full movie from the start because of no button or underlying link. Is there a solution?

Hi, Laureid,
Welcome to the discussions!
Glad you are using iDVD and making your project from iMovie! You have made an error with your chapter markers, and unfortunately, you would have had no way of knowing that.
You will have to recreate your DVD project. Go back into iMovie and delete your beginning chapter marker. As you have seen, iDVD makes the beginning chapter marker for you. Your movie will not play correctly if you do not let iDVD do this for you.
Relaunch iDVD and create the project again, then import your movie into the new iDVD....or you can use the "Create DVD" button in iMovie if that is what you did the first time and it worked for you. This time you should have all your chapter markers as well as the beginning one. You can easily rename that first marker in iDVD's scene selection menu, so that you can have it the name you wish instead of 'Beginning.'
Your movie should play and burn to DVD just fine now.
Good luck, and post back if this doesn't work.

JSF Command Button and Command Links

The main page of my JSF application has a Save button and Command Links. After making any changes on the main page the user should click Save before using any of the Links. Most of the time almost all users do this. However, some users are making changes then clicking a Link, thereby losing their changes.
I could always execute my save method in the backing bean when a link is clicked, but, most of the time this would be doing a lot of processing which usually would not be necessry.
Is their some way to check if any changes have been made and then doing the save only when necessary?
Regards,
Al Malin

Anybody?
What would be beneficial is something like this. If somehow it could be determined if any of the JSF fields on the page were modified. Then, in the backing bean method that handles the ActionEvents for the links, I would check if changes were made and, if so, call my save method.
In other words is it possible to determine, in the backing bean, whether or not JSF fields have changed?

Al Malin

I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2014.1, started using it but cannot find Show Fluid Grid Layout Guides button, Resize LI.link sizing handle and 'move up a Row' arrow. Where can I find them?

I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2014.1, started using it but cannot find Show Fluid Grid Layout Guides button, Resize LI.link sizing handle and 'move up a Row' arrow. Where can I find them?

You have the latest version (CC 2014.1 or 2014.1.1) in which the interface condenses Design View with Live View buttons in normal layouts. See screenshot.
However, in FGLayouts, Live View is the only option which poses some editing problems and has been highly criticized.
Is there any way to display the Design View in fluid grid pages?

You can disable this restriction by adding an X to the FGLayout CSS.

Having said that, it might just be simpler to revert to an earlier version. Log-in to Creative Cloud Desktop app. Go to Filters & Versions > Previous Version. See screenshot.
