OK, I’ve mulled this over for 3 or 4 full days now and have failed to successfully execute this statement in AS. I’m working in Flash 8.
This is what I have: 6 Movie Clips, which are located in another Movie Clip (instance named screen_mc) which is in turn on located on the main timeline.
What I’m trying to do is this: [INDENT]The user rolls over a given movie clip and the other 5 movie clips alpha fade down to accentuate the movie clip that is being rolled over. When another clip is selected, that clip in turn fades back to 100% alpha while all others stay at or go to the lower alpha number. When the user rolls out of all the movie clips all movie clips fades back up to 100%.
[/INDENT]I know how to generate alpha fades, I think. What I am having trouble with is getting a continually looping sequence that responds to any clip being selected by mouse roll over and getting the remainder of the clips to respond accordingly with a proper fade. My latest attempts worked on the first roll over and then on subsequent rollovers to other Movie Clips all clips were being faded down including the one being selected by the roll over command.
I would like the script to be in the main timeline so that I can disable it at a later key frame also in the main timeline.
I suspect that my failure to execute this has something to do with my inability to fully grasp loops and arrays as of yet.
Any help would be appreciated.
