Working on ActionScriptAs for the longer story: I’ve been working on my Multi-choice quiz generator today and while finishing off a few aspects of the interface I came across another annoying problem. I’m using the standard Flash component buttons (as in Flash 7 and later). In the interface, I want to provide the user with some information about the type of quiz they can make.

Simple, I thought! I just have the standard button, but when the user hovers over, just get it to trigger a tool-tip type effect. However, to my annoyance it appeared that the rollover function wasn’t possible for a standard Flash 7 component button. It was rejected as an invalid mouse movement or something. :(

I spent a while fiddling around with an invisible button that would trigger the tooltip, but it was a really irritating and annoying solution. It simply didn’t seem the right way of doing it. Then, by doing a bit more research on the internet, I came across a brilliant solution. It appears that the fuction was left out of the components, but it is still hidden within Flash somewhere. Thanks so much to Mike Jones and his FlashGen blog. His post about AS2 component kludging

Familiar Strangers hd His additional code has given me the perfect quick-fix solution – meaning that the button component looks and works as expected, but it can also trigger a rollover and rollout event. Ideal :)
