Thanks Steven. I've stripped the file down to just one button, but it's still too big for me to upload to this forum. If you send me your email I can send it to you. My email is sfmolly@mac.com....

I got a tip from someone else that maybe things were getting hung up because I have a few tweens happening at the same time. This makes sense. I need to add a onCompleteEvent to start the second...

I'd be happy to share my code. I'm working in CS4 w/ AS 3.0.

Here's the part I think that you are interested in:
function moveContent (theXPosition:Number, theYPosition:Number,...

Well, maybe I typed too soon. I did a few more trials and it did get hung a few times, but not as bad as before.

Can anyone tell me if there is a fps hierarchy - meaning, if my index swf file is...

Thanks so much Guardian Kitty! I think it worked. I thought fps topped out at around 24, but boosting up to 120 has made it much smoother and it's not hanging up in limbo land anymore.

I know my...

Hi

I've got a website w/ a few different pages (each it's own swf file). When buttons are pressed the first time things seem good. But if you return to a button that's already loaded once, the...

That's what I needed! Thanks so so much. You just saved me a lot of profanities!

I know my code is wrong, but I don't know how to correct it.

My btn instance name is: art_btn_cfo
My mc instance name is: work_mc

When the btn is clicked, I'd like the work_mc to move it's x...

Hi

I don't know if this is possible, but can you have a button on one layer play a mc on another layer?

I am trying to build a file where when my button is clicked, it will move the x and y...

No worries on the delayed response. I did get it turned around finally. Damn picky coding! Thanks for the reply regardless.

Thanks for the info. I'll get playing with it and see if I can make it happen. I really appreciate your help. Thanks a million!

Well, I've made some progress on my own, but I've still got a few questions.

1. I've got the button working now, but only because I used the frame number vs my frame label at .gotoAndPlay. When I...

I just noticed that it works fine the first time, but if you try to roll over it again, the playhead doesn't go back to the beginning. How can I fix that?

You are the very best! Thanks so much.

I've added a few more tweaks to it and have another question. I'd like three things to happen. MC plays "fade on" when there is a mouse over. Then MC plays...

With a stop in the first frame of my mc the button/mc doesn't play. Attached is my .fla. Would love it if you could check it out.

Thanks again!
:p

Thank you! Why does the mc run without any mouse over movement though? I'd like the action to occur only when it's moused over.

Thanks again.

My movie clip button isn't acting like a button and it's looping even though I have a stop on it's timeline. Here is my code:

about_mc.buttonMode = true;...

I did have a much longer message, but somehow it didn't upload. Anyway, here is my code:

import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
this.stop();
function mcOver...

Thanks for your reply. I've attempted it and it's not exactly right. The mc keeps looping and the error message I get is:

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MOUSE_OVER.

The problem I had was the mc would run independently of any mouseover. it wasn't responding as a button. I was trying to get it to work via AS only, but I have since changed the format to play it by...

Truly basic question I know but I can't seem to find an answer elsewhere and you don't even want to know how long I've spent on this. I'm trying to create a button that plays a movie clip and stops...

Thanks so so much. I know my file was messy. I had to strip it down to get it small enough to upload to the forum. Thanks so much for the solution. You are a superstar!!

I can't figure out why my property scripts won't apply to my movie clip. Can someone please check my file and let me know what I'm doing wrong. I'm sure it's something easy, but it's killlllling me...
