James, do you not like the class idea?

If you give your elements a class name then you can use only 2 lines.

thanks, but i think that's a bit to complex for me, at this stage I just need to know how to condense writing something like:

sym.$("UKstandardbuttons").fadeToggle();

sym.$("AUSstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Hongkongstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Switzerlandstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Irelandstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Indiastandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Japanstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Netherlandsstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Spainstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

into a var or class?

as i don't want to have to repeat the above code within each elements action (with the fadeToggle swapping for each elements action etc)

thanks

text means text zones. Here is an example.

On stage:

Code:

fakeHiding = [ "hours", "minutes", "seconds" ];

$.each(fakeHiding, function(index, value) { sym.$(value).html("") } );

Hi, thanks, so sorry for being dumb, but where you say "with text", where and what bit would that be in adobe edge? I don't quite understand the 'hiding' part too?

I see where you have the fade out for all the 'standardbuttons' except the UK one (which is fadetoggle) so would the full code be:

UKfinalstandardbuttons = [ 'UKstandardbuttons’, 'AUSstandardbuttons’, ’Hongkongstandardbuttons’, ...etc ]

$.each( UKfinalstandardbuttons, function(index, value) { sym.$(value).fadeOut() } );

in 'creationcomplete' and then in actions for the button to call the actions:

sym.$("UKstandardbuttons").fadeToggle();

in my original project, the code above is in an action for an element??

You can try:

UKfinalstandardbuttons = [ 'UKstandardbuttons’, 'AUSstandardbuttons’, ’Hongkongstandardbuttons’, ...etc ]

$.each( UKfinalstandardbuttons, function(index, value) { sym.$(value).fadeOut() } );

With text:

hiding = [ "days", "hours", "minutes", "seconds" ];

$.each(hiding, function(index, value) { sym.$(value).html("") } );

is class better than var in this instance?

I tried to condense:

sym.$("UKstandardbuttons").fadeToggle();

sym.$("AUSstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Hongkongstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Switzerlandstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Irelandstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Indiastandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Japanstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Netherlandsstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

sym.$("Spainstandardbuttons").fadeOut();

into:

var UKfinalstandardbuttons = {'UKstandardbuttons','AUSstandardbuttons','Hongkongstandardbuttons'...etc}

but it wouldn't work? any thoughts

Try to give them a class name (pieChart and finalPieChart). You can add the class in edge or in code.

sym.$(".pieChart").slideToggle();

sym.$(".finalPieChart").fadeOut();
