flashmaverick:
just go to the xml file and where says link=”http://flashden.net” and put the number of the frame you want to play, for example, if you want to go to the 20th frame of the main timeline pressing the button HOME , you put:
and then go to the movieclip “button” and where says:
getURL (link)
put:
_root.gotoAndPlay(link)

Hello random some nice menus
just a quick question im trying to alter the file I have put some squares behind text to act as tabs.\\and I want the whole menu to lie at the bottom of the file. At the moment the words expand in the middle I want them to expand from the bottom upwards. im sure that is is quite easy to change this where do I start.

Hi Random!
I love the file!!!
I am with musikguru6 though, “how do I scale everything to fit just the text into a fairly thin navbar at the top of the page?”
and
Goldfish “Secondly, how do I adjust the position of the holder? As my menu I’m gonna be using this in is bigger in size and I want to position it perfectly in allign with my menu.”
Thanks for any help from anyone!

Great concept, but the left-align doesn’t work in the downloaded version.
Posted 2 months ago
mm.. Yes i download it and tested it and the left-align doesnt work, i will fix it.
for now if you want to have it left-aligned you only need to go to the lne 87:
if (centered){
and put
if (false){
that solves the problem

Wow – thanks for the fix. I don’t know Flash at all (which is why I’m here), and this file works like charm. For those that want to make this a thin nav bar, just shrink the stage vertically, move the menu/button objects up, and presto, you’re in business. Check out www.paulgregorymedia.com/test2.html (I’ll have this up for a few weeks) until it gets moved to www.paulgregorymedia.com. If anyone would like to check out the white-on-black version, I just finished it for a client at www.smoketheexperience.com. Very slick indeed.

Hello! Cool work 
I’m trying to embed it into another swf, so i created a new movieclip and in the main timeline, i put this script:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“conten”,1);
conten._x=42 ;conten._y=136;
conten.loadMovie(“menu/XML Menu 3 – main.swf”
;
The menu does’t work, doesn’t appear the items.
I have checked XML Menu 3 – main.swf… and it works perfectly!
Could you check it please?

Hi Random:
Loved the file until I put it in an existing flash movie. now it comes up as white radial boxes with fancy borders, I put the xml file in the same folder with the .fla file and even made sure the background color for the text fields was set to no color at all. I’m stumped. I could use a hand.
Big Bad B!

Hi, i purchased your file: how can i raise the distances between the words of the menu ? (the menu’s voices?) thanks
Posted 15 days ago
Just purchased the file. and its awesome, Great work!
I’m putting the menu on a website that has a black bg and base color, so i want to change the all the white in the stock menu to black, and all the black to white.
So…the standing color of the text would be white, the bg would be black, and the rollover would be (#??) color. Anyone understand what ‘im saying; have a solution?
