Hi,

Use the below code:

1. In compositionReady handler:

Add:

sym.$(".elf").hide();

sym.setVariable("count", 200);

this.checkIfActiveSymbol = function(childSym){

var bActiveSymbol = sym.getVariable("symName");

if(bActiveSymbol && (bActiveSymbol != childSym.name))

return false;

return true;

}

this.setActiveSymbol = function(childSym) {

var bActiveSymbol = sym.setVariable("symName", childSym.name);

}

this.resetActiveSymbol = function() {

var bActiveSymbol = sym.setVariable("symName", "");

}

2. For click handler for each btn symbol:

Replace: use btn1 and btn accordingly for each button symbol.

var childSym = sym.getSymbol("btn1");

var pos = childSym.getPosition();

if(!sym.checkIfActiveSymbol(childSym))

return;

if (pos < 499) {

sym.setActiveSymbol(childSym);

sym.getSymbol("btn1").play("1");

sym.getSymbol("btn1").$("name").fadeToggle();

sym.getSymbol("btn1").$("mailbtn").fadeToggle();

}

if (pos > 501) {

sym.resetActiveSymbol();

sym.getSymbol("btn1").playReverse(pos);

sym.getSymbol("btn1").$("name").fadeToggle();

sym.getSymbol("btn1").$("mailbtn").fadeToggle();

}

var count = sym.getVariable("count");

sym.getSymbol("btn1").getSymbolElement().css({"z-index":count});

sym.setVariable("count", count+1);

hth,

Vivekuma

How to disable/enable other buttons when one is active?

Hi community!

I have numerous symbols which animate in when clicked and out when clicked again one at a time. Thx again to vivekuma who helped me materialize this.

But then i realized i also need to disable the other symbols when one is active and re-enable them when it animates back out like in the sample. I won't hold it against anyone for laughing, but I was trying to combine this bind/unbind with this current var method but it's mostly blind shot after blind shot

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
