RE: FLASH: OnMouseClick Swapping of Graphic

[Paul Willoughby]

Hi Bruce,


The best way to do this doesn't really involve swapping the graphics at all

(not like javaScript rollovers anyway). Create a movie clip with 3 layers

and 2 key frames on each. The lowest layer will be your graphics. In frame 1

put the image of the unselected tooth and in frame 2 the image of the

selected tooth (you could use just 1 image, convert it to a graphic symbol,

then just modify it's instance colour properties for the selected version).

Create an invisible button (this is a button without an up, over or down

state, just a hit area). Make the hit area of it a nice shape to cover your

tooth. On layer 2 of your 'tooth' movie clip drag instances of the button

into both keyframes. Assign this action to the button in frame 1:


On(Release)

Go to next frame

End On


On the button in frame 2, assign the action:


On(Release)

Go to previous frame

End On


Finally, on layer 1, assign a 'stop' action to each keyframe to keep that

crazy playhead in check.

Probably more detailed an explanation than you need, but it's just so darn

quiet today...where is everybody?

Anyone going to the list party tommorrow?

Subject: FLASH: OnMouseClick Swapping of Graphic



Dear all,


I have a new project to create a set of teeth for dentists so that when a

particular tooth is selected, it actually highlights itself. This means that

if multiple teeth are selected, those too will be highlighted and produce a

change in colour.


Anyone can provide me with the action script/solutions/help about how to

enable a graphic swap when that particular graphic has been clicked on.


Thanx in advance!
