The Scrolling Area is an AS3 based component that enables drag-n-drog and fast skin customization.

It has an interface that allows scrolling to specific x and y points of content or cumulative scroll to x and y points of content.

It also has a scroll on, scroll off and scroll auto functionality that allows show scrollbars always, never or if needed respectively. Additionally it will let you know whenever the vertical or horizontal scrollbars become visible or not by using flash events.

Other features:
  • Mouse wheel scroll enabled.
  • Horizontal scroll enabled.
  • Track and Thumb runs in a separated way (make skinning more flexible).
  • Can use whatever you want as skin (shapes, images, etc.).

P.S.: The Published File Size depends of the embed content. The resolution is resizable because you can redraw the area, but the script do not resizes it.

Hi folks,

SimpleJim I saw what you are saying. I search the web but did not found how to fix this.

I think this issue is related with the AVM of the flash player.

I mean… the AVM1 could have a default behavior that “stops the propagation of mouse wheel event”, so the browser have no knowledge about when the mouse wheel event occurs.

I saying it because I tested some approaches with mouse wheel locally in my machine. All of the AS2 versions, wich runs in AVM1 , worked as you expected with no code addition, I mean… no browser scroll when flash player has the focus. But the AS3 versions worked just as you saw in the example above.

I found some javascript “hacks” to prevent the browser to be scrolled, but I thought it was better to keep it just as it is.

Please, if you know how to fix this, let me know.

Thank you.

I tried to change the wmode to the following values: window (the default), transparent and opaque.

Unfortunately no one worked.

Hello,

I just bought your file, it’s great, but I really need this to work in AS2 …. What I’m trying to do is to open this file on level 6 from another swf (done with AS2 ) with “loadMovie” script, but then the scroll stops working. My e-mail is kamnikus@gmail.com, I’d really appreciate your assistance!

Hi kamnikus,

The problem you are having it is because you are trying to load an AS3 -based movie, that only runs in AVM2 (flash players >= 9), into a AS2 -based movie, that runs in AVM1 . That is why it is not running.

I think the “Migration for AS2 and older flash versions.” I said should confused you, but do not worry! I will make the version migration this night, and send you a copy.

Thank you for purchasing.

File works great, very flexible and easy to implement.

One question: How do I call the scrollToY method from a button inside mcContent?

Thanks for the good work.

How do you get the content area to resize at run time depending on dynamic textfield height for example?

In this version all changes must be compile-time changes (unless you have some experience in AS3 , to change the content area properties at runtime – and also to make some changes on the class that controls it).

Changes in edit time was favored in this file, I mean, it’s very simple to customize and put it (scrollbars and content area) in a know position. On the other hand, we have this runtime issues.

Any doubts, contact me: developer.rodrigo [at] gmail.com
