On(rollOver)action + on(release)action + photo transition

1

Okay, I’ll try to describe what I want to do and probably just need help putting it together.

I have :

5 black & white photos – all converted to MC’s (bwimage1, bwimage2 etc)
5 color photos (same as b&w) – all converted to MC’s (image1,image2 etc)
5 buttons – all converted to symbol-buttons (image1_btn, image2_btn etc)

I have the 5 buttons lined up vertically on the left side of the page. I have a spot on the right side of the page where I want the picture to be visible, the black&white version on (rollOver) and the color version on(release).

I know how to make just one of the photos appear on rollover or on release but I don’t know how to change the photos from B&W to Color on the actions. I would like a transition between the photos from rollover to release (b&w to color) like a fade.

Any help is appreciated.

you can set up a movie clip for each image, on frame one have the b&w image, frame 2-10 a tween from b&w to color image, and color image on frame 10. name this mc image1_mc or something

on ur button, put the following code:


on (rollOver) {
image1_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
}

on (release) { 
image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

then on frame 10 of image1_mc have a stop action, and you should be ok.

by the way, i’m in Mt. Prospect :stuck_out_tongue:

Okay, I got it working fine. Now I need a tutorial on making text appear on rollover and staying on release.
