HD Animated movie clip button in flash CS4, navigate to url request.

I'm getting the following error:

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MotionEvent.

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MotionEvent.

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MotionEvent.

What did i did wrong?

@Flowwwable Hi Flowwwable, If you look at the error it tells you that you are using a :MotionEvent!

If you go back through your code and change the Event/s to MouseEvent! it should work.

You might have to send it to my in-box cos you can't write code in these boxes.

how do you make a movie clip button in 2.0?

[asummersdesign]

@santagotback101 You cant place code in these txt boxes, so i sudgest you look for an "As2 advanced button tutorial"

this one has the source file included in the description ~

great tutorial! but wen I am testing the button it wont animate the labels it just jumps to the keyframes. So there is no fade. It really looks like a simple button Symbol with the state presets of flash.... what am I doing wrong?

I gave you 5 stars :)

[asummersdesign]

@Postmortem88 Did you set the timeline to tween by right clicking between the keyframes and selecting "classic tween" ?

[Postmortem88]

@asummersdesign yeah I did... I also checked every single part of the Scene and compared it with your tutorial, and its absolutely identic...

I noticed that when i test the button and hover it the first time, it does nothing, and after the second time i roll over it, it starts "switching" between the 2 states..

I want this button to work! :(

[asummersdesign]

@Postmortem88 Hmm.. Ok, did you place the labels one frame after the keyframes containing the begining animation?

If you press enter when in flash does the button animate then?

[Postmortem88]

@asummersdesign Yes, they begin one frame after each stop(); action and when I hit enter the movie does not play in flash and I think it has to be like so, because of the stop, right?

The timeline (keys and stuff) looks exactly as in your tutorial :(

[asummersdesign]

If you get stuck or struggle to follow this tutorial, then please ask me to explain.

I'd be happy to help!
