Step backwards and forwards through menu

(2008-03-26 - views: 3142)
Q: Is there a possibility of stepping through the menu, selecting each menu item, in order ? How about going backwards and forwards ?
A: You can do that by creating a list of all the menu items. This list could be created by parsing all the menu and placing the menu item ids into that list. Next, you just need to expand whichever menu item you want from the list.

I am not sure if that scenario will work for AS3 too, but you could open a new support ticket regarding that issue and if that example can be translated for AS3 I am sure that someone will provide that example for you.

Load SWF on clicking next if path defined in XML
posted by dekoltd on 2010-04-26
Is it possible to load in the path set for a node when stepping through the menu? I have movies that are loading in for each menu item, but using next/back buttons will only highlight menu, not load in movie associated in XML...

Any help with this?

Thanks, Andrew
Load SWF on clicking next if path defined in XML

Andrew,

Unfortunately the functions called directly from the menu items inside the xml file will not be called if the items are selected using the clickItem(). We set that method to not allow that in order to avoid the possible infinite looping situations.
However you could use the getItemByID() method in order to access any attribute(in your case there should be an attribute that holds the path of the swf file that will be load when the item is cliked ) of the clicked item and use it as you wish.
