rollovers

[Alex Slack]

hello. i am using director 8.5 and i was woundering if there is any way that
you can place rollovers in certain areas.

for example, i am creating a menu, now when the user scrolls over the button
i want some text to appear on the other side of the screen? Hope some one
can help me out on this, really important.

Thanks

Alex

Hi Alex,

Look at the disjointed rollover behavior in the Library.

a quick example.

put your button in channel 1, the text box that will appear in channel 2.

Set the text in channel 2 to be off the visible screen area and add this
code to the button:

on mouseOver
set the locH of sprite 2 = 400
set the locV of sprite 2 = 400
end

on mouseOut
set the locV of sprite 2 = - 500
end

Really quick and simple, and there are better ways of doing it, but it works
as a quick fix if you need it fast....

Hey, this is really causing me problems....
How do i create a rollover....
simple as but with say 2 areas that are both visible but when u rollover one
of them something becomes visible, and something different becomes visible
for the other area. But both invisible rollover areas are always invisible
unless u rollover the corisponding area. And.... how do i add more rollover
areas if needed
(i am creating a cdrom for uni, it is a floormap and when u rollover a
certain shop, the name of the venue is displayed)
Nicola
THANK YOU in advance!!!

Take a look at the behavior Library. There's one in there for
disjointed rollovers. That should be what you want to use.

You can either move a sprite on/off stage one rollover OR you can turn a
channel visibility on/off (caution to this option as Everything in that
channel will be invisible if turned off).

you drag it to the sprite which will trigger the rollover (i.e. the
one you want to mouse over) it should then prompt you forwhich sprite
you'd like to change, which member you'd like to change ot to and so
on.

hth,

Hey Nicola,

I'm not really clear on what you need but from what I do understand I
could tell you to try the following:

Suppose you have a button in sprite 1 which is visible. When you
rollover that button, you want a graphic and sprite 2 and another one in
sprite 3 (which can be anywhere on the screen) to become visible (right
now they should be invisible).

Create this script(behavior) and attach it to your button in sprite 1:

on mouseenter
set the visible of sprite 2 to TRUE
set the visible of sprite 3 to TRUE
end

on mouseleave
set the visible of sprite 2 to FALSE
set the visible of sprite 3 to FALSE
end

In order to get your sprites 2 and 3 invisible in the first place,
create a Movie Script like this:

on preparemovie
set the visible of sprite 2 to FALSE
set the visible of sprite 3 to FALSE
end

Remember Movie Scripts are not attached to sprites like Behaviors so you
don't have to woory about attaching it, just see that you are choosing
Movie Script in the Property Inspector.

Hope it helps.

Hello,

Can anyone help? Rollover effects work perfectly well in Internet Explorere but fail to work in Netscape Navigator 7.

Show me, please.

Hello,

It's not a live site unfortunately.

[Murray *TMM*]

Oh. I guess it'll be hard to get an answer without having someone look at
your code, then.

Hello again,

Yes, I guess that would be difficult. I'll try to find somewhere to make the site live. Thanks.
