ok, i have 4 sliding docks.

on focus in of each dock it slides the others in... so if dock 1 is out and i focus on dock 2, it slides dock 1 back in. all that works fine.

I have one large invisible button behind the 4 docks that when clicked (focusin) it slides an docks back in. this works fine IF there is a dock already showing.

if all 4 docks are slid back, and you click, the previous dock showing pops out, then slides back in again. How can I stop this?

image shows a click after all docks are back... dock jumped out and is sliding back in...
(this is in the simulator...)


code for the reset button.

<animateTransform xlink:href="#MEDIA" id="_anim_r1" attributeName="transform" type="translate" 
to="0,0" dur="0.5s"	
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin" />
<animateTransform xlink:href="#MSGS" id="_anim_r2" attributeName="transform" type="translate" 
to="0,0" dur="0.5s"	
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin" />
<animateTransform xlink:href="#CONTACTS" id="_anim_r3" attributeName="transform" type="translate"
to="0,0" dur="0.5s"	
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin" />
<animateTransform xlink:href="#FAV" id="_anim_r4" attributeName="transform" type="translate"
to="0,0" dur="0.5s"	
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin" />

Static,

I may be very stupid here but I will try, I am looking at your code and I notice you dont have 2 lines of code for each button

(Media,Msg,and the others)

first line tells it where to stop((Up,down,left,right-in pixels)),the other tells it to go back.




<animateTransform xlink:href="#MEDIA" id="_anim_r1" attributeName="transform" type="translate"
to="0,0" dur="0.5s" ((change here to tell the button where to stop)) 1 stays at zero,the other moves it left and right
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin"
/>



<animateTransform xlink:href="#MEDIA" id="_anim_r2" attributeName="transform" type="translate"
to="0,0" dur="0.5s" (( leave this 0,0 ))
fill="freeze"
begin="reset_Button.focusin" ((try putting focusout))
/>


If this doesnt fix the problem let me know.
You may also need to create a reset button for MEDIA button,MSGS button,CONTACTS button and FAV button....

Example- reset1_Button
reset2_Butoon
reset3_Button
reset4_Butoon

hi there, its so much simpler than that, just set it so that on a bar sliding out the button is visible (but behind the bars of icons) and then when the bar slides back in the the button hides itself, that way the button is only `active` when a bar is out

so for example the button that shows media would have a focusin property of `show reset button` and hide media would have a focusin property of `hide reset button`

to be fair i dont know the code for it as its dead simple to link it in composer, youd also have to make it hidden at frame 1

@daveastra - great idea! i will just hide it on the reset and show on the focusin

@HaTeRbyNaTUrE - the only code i posted was for the reset button, and its not 2 lines per button. its 4 lines, each effecting a layer. so when the reset is clicked, it sets all 4 layers back to 0,0. I did not post the code that slides the docks out because thats a ton of code and i didnt think it was needed.

THANKS!

ok, just tested the solution daveastra gave. worked perfectly. but editing the animation was not needed. I just set focusin of the rest to hide the reset button, and focusin on the four docks to show it. Worked like a charm. THANK YOU.
