trying to do a rollover - please help!!!

[sussie.k webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Hi,
I'm a bit new to Director and i'm trying to make a rolloverbutton so that when i entermouse i want the transparency to go from 100 to 0. And when a leavemouse i want the transparency to go back from 0 to 100.
I don't have the lingo script for that so i'm hoping that someone can help me!!

Thanks!!! :)

on mousseEnter me
sprite(me.spritenum).blend = 0
end

on mousseLeave me
sprite(me.spritenum).blend = 100
end

-- cound set the visible to false to get result similar to blend 0
-- but rollover detect may be lost with invisible sprite

Hi Susanne,

what you are looking for is the sprites blendLevel. an example would be something like this...
sprite(whichSprite).blend = 0 -- this makes the sprite invisible
sprite(whichSprite).blend = 100 -- this makes the sprite 100% visible

So in your behaviour script do this...

on mouseEnter me
sprite(me.spriteNum).blend = 100
end

on mouseLeave me
sprite(me.spriteNum).blend = 0
end

If you were looking for an animated blend, like it kind of sounds, then try
this on for size:


property myBlend, myBlending, myBlendStep
property sp

on beginSprite me
sp = sprite(me.spriteNum)
myBlend = 100
myBlendStep = 10
myBlending = #up
end

on mouseEnter me
myBlending = #down
end

on mouseLeave me
myBlending = #up
end

on enterFrame me
if myBlending = #up then
if myBlend + myBlendStep <= 100 then
myBlend = myBlend + myBlendStep
sp.blend = myBlend
end if
else
if myBlend - myBlendStep >= 0 then
myBlend = myBlend - myBlendStep
sp.blend = myBlend
end if
end if
end
