Please, I’m trying to make a mask for this menu, I was trying in many different ways, but I still do not understand why it doesn’t work.
menu = new XML();
menu.ignoreWhite = true;
menu.load(“the destination That we are loadin xml from”);
menu.onLoad = function() {
items = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for (a=0; a<=items.length-1; a++) {
_root.attachMovie(“mcMenuItem”, “item”+a, a);
_root[“item”+a].nametxt.text = items[a].attributes.pname;
_root[“item”+a]._y = 24*a;
_root[“item”+a]._y += 203;
_root[“item”+a]._x = 93;
_root[“item”+a].id = items[a].attributes.id;
//Here we attach the mask to our menu
//_root.attachMovie(“mcMenuMask”, “mcMask”, _root.getNextHighestDepth());
//_root.mcMask._y = 300;
//_root.mcMask._x = 95;
//_root[“item”+a].setMask(mcMask);
//This command attaches movie with the main text movie
attachMovie(“mcMainText”, “mcNewMainText”, 100);
mcNewMainText._x = 291;
mcNewMainText._y = -71;
//here are the properties for buttons
_root[“item”+a].onRollOver = function() {
this._alpha = 85;
};
_root[“item”+a].onRollOut = function() {
this._alpha = 100;
};
_root[“item”+a].onRelease = function() {
attachMovie(“mcThumbnails”, “mcCocos”+_root[“item”+a].id, 100);
_root.catId = this.id;
trace(“cat id=”+_root.catId);
};
}
};
That was the code of menu. This menu is inside the main movieclip. But I want to mask this menu incase making the shape of the last and first button.
