enableing the main menu links while still keeping the sub menus intact

[timothyjamesreed]

Hello,

Great menu, but how do I enable the main menu links while still keeping the sub menus intact? Seems like that would have been a given with any menu.. If I create a menu item with sub menus it wont let the main menu item become a link unless I disable the sub menus. If you could point me in the right direction that would be great. I have many more projects in the works.

Thanks for all the support.

If I could get some idea's (support) that would be great otherwise I will have to scrap the whole menu and replace it with a new one.

Thanks,

Hello Timothy.
In order to do what you want you must go to button.as, copy line 218 ( getURL(node.attributes.url, node.attributes.target); ) and paste it on line 224.
After this you should have something like:

if (subMenuPresent == 1)
{
getURL(node.attributes.url, node.attributes.target);
main.currentSubMenuAuxiliar = this;
deactivate();
}

save button.as and compile the .fla.

All the best, Razvan

looks like the main bar (with a sub bar) acts as link when clicked but you cannot see the menu names..... Any suggestions? Thanks.
