I'm in the midst of tweaking one of the Flash Kit featured.flas a bit and dropping in some content. If you link on the client list BUTTON you'll see my dilemma. I can't get the text to load into the text box(text) in the main timeline. I can make it work in it's own scene, but not on the main timeline. Any ideas. Oh, the scroller is a smart clip.
http://www.dogtaildesigns.com/flash/index.html
Here's the actionscript from the scroller smart clip;
// check if a text file needs to be loaded
if (load_textfile == "true") {
loadVariables (textfile_name, _root);
}
// change the strings for determine whether or not the draggable bar should be visible to boolean values
if (scrollbar_visible == "true") {
scrollbar_visible = true;
} else if (scrollbar_visible == "false") {
scrollbar_visible = false;
}
// change the strings for determining whether or not the buttons should be visible to booleans
if (button_visible == "true") {
button_visible = true;
} else if (button_visible == "false") {
button_visible = false;
}
// positions the draggable part of the scroll bar
this.draggable.render = function () { var ratio;ratio = (_parent._parent[_parent.textfield_name].scroll-1)/(_parent._parent[_parent.textfield_name].maxscroll-1);this._y = top+(bottom-top)*ratio;this._x = _parent.scroll_area._x;};
And, here's a portion the actionscript liniking the button to the graphic and smart clip:
difference = Number(ypos) - Number(target);
if (difference > 75) {
setProperty ("/Main_Images/text", _y, Number(ypos)-15);
ypos = getProperty("/Main_Images/text", _y);
} else if (difference <= 75 and difference >50) {
setProperty ("/Main_Images/text", _y, Number(ypos)-10);
ypos = getProperty("/Main_Images/text", _y);
} else if (difference <= 50 and difference > 19) {
setProperty ("/Main_Images/text", _y, Number(ypos)-7);
ypos = getProperty("/Main_Images/text", _y);
} else if (difference <= 19 and difference > 6) {
setProperty ("/Main_Images/text", _y, Number(ypos)-3);
ypos = getProperty("/Main_Images/text", _y);
} else if (difference <= 6 and difference >= 1) {
setProperty ("/Main_Images/text", _y, Number(ypos)-1);
ypos = getProperty("/Main_Images/text", _y);
}
Please & Thank you- TB
