Button with dynamic text in Flash CS5 -
i'm new flash pro programming, , trying create button-type symbol can set label. problems i'm running follows.
- if make symbol type=button, can't add actionscripts in frames and/or access subcomponents? why so?
- if make symbol type=movieclip, can add actionscript , access sub-components, can't figure out how make handcursor show on hover?
any ideas appreciated. thanks..
there couple of ways it.
first off - have ability access sub components of button , can add actionscript it. however, same , build button using movieclips gives more freedom.
to overcome hand pointer issue - there 2 ways reproduce this.
firstly (my preference), build button object. invisible, or @ worst 1% opacity. , i'd place on upper layer of movieclip. not require hover states or code - can reproduce hand icon.
the second option within code. 1 problem tend create - need same code sub components, if not - might have selective text in reproduced movieclip of change mouse pointer text selection pointer (the when hover on text).
its simple enough produce. in frame 1 of movieclip add:
buttonmode = true;
and make hand cursor also. can read more here: http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/actionscriptlangrefv3/flash/display/sprite.html#buttonmode
