Re: [Flashcoders] reposition MC on release
exactly as I told before
try to use vars to reference to object as much as possible and use this o
point to the current clip, if is _root fine, but if you move to another one
it still works
var myButton = this.attachMovie( "buttonMCinLibrary", "newName",
this.getNextHighestDepth()) ;
myButton.onRelease = function()
{
this.endX = -500;
this.endY = -200;
}
2006/6/7, Steven Sacks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Don't use on (release) {}, use btn.onRelease = function() {} in the frame.
Putting on (action) {} methods on button and movieclip instances is for
designers who don't know how to code.
When you assign button actions to movieclips or buttons, unless you use
"this", it's going to refer to the movieclip it resides in.
Example:
// Tells BTN_Foo's timeline to go to frame 2
BTN_Foo.onRelease = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
};
// Tells the timeline of the clip containing BTN_Foo to go to frame 2
BTN_Foo.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(2);
};
// Or you can write it like this
BTN_Foo.onRelease = function() {
this._parent.gotoAndStop(2);
};
Same thing goes for variables.
You can assign the clip to the button.
BTN_Foo.clipToControl = _level0.MC_Clip;
BTN_Foo.onRelease = function() {
this.clipToControl._x = 100;
};
HTH,
Steven

Re: [Flashcoders] reposition MC on release
i think he means sumthin like this:
inside your button:
on (release)
{
_root.myMC.endX = -500;
_root.myMC.endY = -200;
}
assuming myMC is the movieclip you are talking about

Fine. But what if I want to move the AS out of the actual MC and onto the
button named contact? How would I target the MC to be repositioned after
on
(release)?
on (release) {
something here I presume?
endX = -500;
endY = -200;
}
