HORIZONTALMENUSTUDIO V1.0

Note to (potential) buyers: Due to my absence I have not been able to answer a lot of questions on my files. I will not get back to any questions asked earlier, but I will answer those asked from now on. So please, if you still have the same question, repost it here.

You can add submenus via XML , but not realtime via AS, and the submenu will automatically be as wide as the top menu.

Hi kajolly. Why? Have you noticed any browser that don’t support this menu? I’m not aware of any, so you might want to try some browsers for yourself. I know it works in the latest IE, FireFox and Opera.

Well you could have the width of the buttons depend on the width of the textfield.

In the movieclip head_button, delete line 13 of the actionscript. Then on line 1 (even before this.onEnterFrame) put:

captionField.autoSize = true;

Then replace line 9 with this line. Change 10 to any number you like for the margin.

buttonWidth = captionField._width+10;

Now, select the captionField textfield in the movieclip, and in the text properties select ‘single line’ (as it now says ‘multiline’ or something). Also move the textfield to the right, as much as the number you filled in for ‘10’.

Last, head up to the HorizontalMenu movieclip, and replace lines 67 to 71 with the following:

function getX(number) {
    if (number == 0){
        xx = marginLeft;
    }else{
        xx = this["but"+(number-1)]._x + this["but"+(number-1)]._width;
    }
    return xx;
}

oistylin, what do you mean by ‘the subnav is off?’ it works fine on my side.

kajolly, it says on the top of this page that this file is flash 8+, so you should get a newer version of flash.

LeeP, I answered your email.

ronnie, in the head_button movieclip on line 45 of the script, paste:

if (linkType == “loadMovie” { _root[linkTarget].loadMovie(linkData); }

on line 72 of the script in sub_button, do the same. Now you can load movies defined in the xml, like this (xml):

linkData=”mymovie.swf” linkType=”loadMovie” linkTarget=”somemovieclip.swfcontainer”

linkTarget is relative to _root.

GT007 , please send me an email on this and i’ll send you a mod.

Oh never mind, i see you’ve already done so. I sent you the file.

westfield, you can indeed change the button in about every way. The height, too.

rbh, I answerred your email

I’m sorry, not me. I’m really too busy…
