[F5]Need Help Whit Slide Menu!

[dana]

hello,
i saw a graet menu at www.bukwild.com.
when i done this i used this script, but didn't work the same! PLS help!

onClipEvent (load) {
inertia = 0.6;
k = 0.1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
x = -this._x+_root._xmouse;
xp = xp*inertia+x*k;
_x += xp;
}

pls have a look at www.bukwild.com and tell me how you think that it is done! The buttons go after each other but not above each other.

thanks!

Well, I think those are just rollOvers... I don't quite see where you could put that code :-\

[dana]

the buttons follow the mouse, but they don't just follow the mouse. there is a differt of space between them.

So it can't be just a rollover!
but thanks anyway.

[pom]

Oups sorry, I didn't see that. It's just easing with different easing speeds. Read the tute about easing and everything should be clear. Otherwise, just :trout: Lost

[dana]

Thank you! it workt!

But know i have a nother problem whit it; when i put a nother button on the stage whit the same action script, the 2 buttons are on the same place.

On the site www.bukwild.com they not on the same place and they not go above each other. How can i fix this?

Can you or some one else please help me?

I know I have a lot of fun playing with Robert Penners Easing Equations ;) (A bit advanced, but fun none-the-less)


http://www.robertpenner.com/scripts/easing_equations.txt

They are definitely advanced, but the good is: you don't have to worry about that. All you need is to call the function with the right parameters and voilà :love:

Robert Penner is scary... :o

[lostinbeta]

You know me with my easing Ilyas... I have a natural love for Robert Penner for creating these!

And why is Penner scary?

[pom]

Because he's so damn good :crazy: I don't think I've ever opened one of his files and actually understood how it worked :-\

[lostinbeta]

I understand some of the easing equations, but yes, he is too damn good. People like that make me feel bad at Flash.... :(

[dana]

thanks for your advice, But i didn't understant the link of robert.
I write my script down maybe so i can explain it moore.

I have 3 MC and in each MC i have a button.

MC1 has this scrip:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
speed = 5/1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse-50;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
}

[dana]

MC2:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
speed = 5/2;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse-30;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
}

[dana]

MC3:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
speed = 5/3;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse-10;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
}

[dana]

It work but only to the right. When you go to the left, he pic the button on the right first. I preciat that you will help me, thanks for that!

[pom]

Sorry? What happens when you click on the left? :q:

[dana]

maybe i have to include some frame actions.
Something like:
stop ();
if (_root._xmouse>0) {
gotoAndStop (2);
}

[dana]

when you slide whit your mouse to the left, the first button that goes that way is the button on the right.

[dana]

i'm sorry if mine english is not to good. i'm from holland!

[pom]

No prob :) I just wanted to make sure of the problem (I don't speak that well either, I'm a poor Frenchman :trout: )

Anyway, what you could do is change the speed depending on the direction the clips are moving. Something like this:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
speed = 5/3;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse-10;
if (endX > 0) speed=5/3;
else speed=5/1;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
}Or something like this.

pom :cool:

[dana]

i will try that!
i let you know if it work.

Thanks!

[dana]

The script was a little bit different but it works!!!!

Thank you!!!!!

i used this scrip:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
speed = 5/1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse-10;
if (_xmouse-10 > 0) speed=5/3;
else speed=5/1;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;

Please show us when you're done with your menu :)

[dana]

i will. But how can i send my fla or swf to this message?

[lostinbeta]

In the reply window there is a section that says "Attach file:" your file must be small enough to post here though :)

[dana]

i wanted to thank you very much. You have been a big help!

[lostinbeta]

I get an error when trying to open. You must be on a mac :-\

Try putting it in a .zip file and reattaching it.


Meanwhile, I am off to bed, it is 4:11am here :)

[dana]

well, good niight then! here it is 12:15 and i'm at my work, so.
here it is!

[lostinbeta]

LOL.... man, this thing is just causing trouble all over the place.


Your .zip file gives me an error saying "Cannot open file. Invalid archive".

Hi guys,... Hi Dana

I was actually searching for the same script, i using an arrow instead of a slide, but in either case, how do u control the range?

to make it stop going further when it reaches the last (or the first) button...

Regards,


Tehsin

[dana]

i load this menu into a site so your menu can't go further than that.
is this what you mean?

[tipusultan]

Well what I am doing is my whole site is in flash, and the slider goes all around the site instead of staying within the menu boundaries...

here is what I mean -->

http://www.serindgroup.com/store/consoleStore2.html

but yea i am guessing yur menu is the only flash in the site, and the rest of the site is html?

[lostinbeta]

Use an if statement.


if (this._y <= 100) {this._y = 100;}
if (this._y >= 350) {this._y = 350;}

This limits the _y position to 100 minimum and 350 maximum. Add this with the rest of your code in the onClipEvent (enterFrame).

[tipusultan]

Hey lostinbeta thanks alot

that worked great and i did same thing for the x values for the horizontal menu, it works beautifully...

Thanks,

Tehsin Bhayani

[lostinbeta]

No problem :)
