ok well,
my ? is … how can i make the part of my site that will hold my text pop up on the first click of a menu button and then … if you click the one of the menu buttons again… instead of reloading the box… it just changes the content… and then have a home kinda button that play an animation of the box closing but after is it closed it starts again with the same "only comes out on the first click of any of the menu buttons…heres an example , look at their text box. showlogic.com
say i put an action on each button to goto a certain frame that will play the box animation and load the text…
well that means that every time you click a button the box animation will play, in the example you’ll notice that the text box animation only plays the first time you click one of the buttons… and the only way the box closing animation plays is if you click the “home” button.
Ok… I will take a shot at this, I don’t know if it will help but…
That site is made by 2 Advanced so it is obvious it is advanced.
I am assuming the box in the lower left is actually 2 loaded movies. The top is a sub navigation area, and the bigger box below it is the content area.
The transitions are triggered by variables.
So say you have an out animation on your section. On the last frame of that animation you will have _root.containerClip.loadMovie(_root.newMovie)
And your buttons for changing sections looks something like this…
on (release){
_root.newMovie = “about.swf”;
_root.containerClip.gotoAndPlay(“outSequence”)
}
Make any sense?
That is the basic gist of it.
And
Your footer is too big. The requirement is 300x60, but we don’t mind if you go a bit over that, but yours is gigantic.
well … now its working but i added something that complicated it…
so its not doing what i want…
i added a button that shows up when the text box is out… that says back… and it shows an animation of the box closing when clicked… the button works fine and all but if you click it after that the box wont come out again if you click on of the menu buttons …
