Hi there,
i started out working from the Tutorial :[font=Arial][color=#000066] [/color][/font][font=Verdana][color=#003366]Transitions [/color][/font][font=Verdana][color=#003366]Between External SWFs [color=black]for MX2004.[/color][/color][/font]
That went well to make the base of my site.
As i went adding content, i needed more button links within each category.
Problem.
What would be the best way to have buttons transition in with the MC, and still be able to Outro properly when outer links are activated?
I’ve tried ways that i thought might work but they interrupt the function of the outer buttons.
----Being that i know so little about Flash scripting, would it be possible to mask an amount of content within an MC, and call to it by button? kind of like scrolling to anchors ?----
[color=royalblue]The buttons within the MC:[/color]
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(“management”);
}
‘management’ being the single frame that holds topic content - Placed on its own layer with a stop, at the end of the MC.
[color=royalblue]The main timeline buttons:[/color]
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = “AboutUs”;
container.loadMovie(“AboutUs.swf”);
} else if (_root.currMovie != “AboutUs”) {
if (container._currentframe >= container.midframe) {
_root.currMovie = “AboutUs”;
container.play();
}
}
}
The result is that the buttons within the MC go to the correct frame but interrupt all other buttons from continuing properly.
There must be a way-- can nayone help in directing me to it?
