mc trouble

[toonwriter]

I've seen this before, so I know there's a way...

Here's my prob:

Set up my AS for buttons (code below) so a default mc ("begin") would play in main stage when movie loads and when user has rolled out of buttons. However, I need it so user can click on button to view scrollable text or interact with another mc.

As you can see below, the script the script works too good -- "begin" plays when user rollsOut -- whether they've clicked button or not.

What's the best way to set it up, so that when the user rollsOut w/o clicking on the button "begin" plays and when the user rollsOut && releases the button "stop" + "SuperText" plays?


------------------

on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("1open");
_root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("stop");
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperGo");
}
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("1close");
_root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("begin");
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperStop");
}
on (release) /* I've also tried on (releaseOutside) -- no luck */ {
_root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("stop"); /* Also tried gotoAndStop */
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperStop");
_root.SuperText.gotoAndPlay("SuperText");
}

------------------

Appreciate it!

Not sure I understand what you're trying to do because you say "when the user rollsOut && releases the button" - if they've rolled out of the button they can no longer release it.

However, I think you need something like this:


on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("1open" );
_root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("stop" );
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperGo" );
}

on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("1close" );

if(_root.clicked) {
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperStop" );_
} else {
root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("begin" );
}

}

on (release) /* I've also tried on (releaseOutside) -- no luck */ {

_root.clicked = 1;

_root.mainStage.gotoAndPlay("stop" ); /* Also tried gotoAndStop */
_root.SuperPlay.gotoAndPlay("SuperStop" );
_root.SuperText.gotoAndPlay("SuperText" );
}
