Flash8 :: Delete A Function From One Clip To Another?

Oct 2, 2009

The order of events are this. From the main stage I load a movie clip (movie clip 1), within that movie clip I have a button that loads another movie clip (movie clip 2) and also starts a timer that will automatically unload movie clip 2 . Within movie clip 2 I would like to create a button that stops the timer on movie clip 1 and starts it again.

I need to stop a function in movie clip 1 from movie clip 2 and then start that same function on movie clip 1 from movie clip 2.

This is the code I am using

This is the movie clip 1 code:

PHP Code:

function moreTimerFun(moreTime) {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if ((getTimer()/1000)-moreTime>7) {
delete this.onEnterFrame;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Delete An Obj From Inside A Function With A Call?

Sep 13, 2010

when we write

var obj1=new Object();
var obj2=obj1;

we know obj2 is just a call of obj1, they are the same thing.also, prameters of function are also the calls of the object outside e.g.

var objC=new Object();objC.name = "Jhon";[code].........

it seems that when setting tar to null, the obj outside in the function didn't changeit seem taht everything you do will pass to the real object, but not setting it to null;

my questions: how to make the real object became null with a call?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Delete Undelete MouseMove Function

Nov 16, 2009

I am working on a paintbrush application in AS2.Currently I am working with drawing a circle. I have a circle movieclip in library. Whenever users click and drag on the stage they can design a circle. I am using mouseDown, mouseMove and mouseUp event for this.So for mousedown I am calculating the current x and y position then for mouseMove the circle starts to grow depending upon the x and y position of mouse.Then for mouseUp I am deleting the mouseMove function, so that it stops drawing. This is working fine. But when I want to draw another object on the stage the mouseMove function does not work. I am confused on how to undelete the mouseMove function.[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Delete Object Declared Within Function?

Mar 6, 2010

"you cannot delete variables that are declared within a function with the var statement".Which, as it happens, is precisely what I was trying to doI want to delete the object because it holds a bunch variables that are no longer needed, to prevent potential speed/memory issues later on.it's impossible (probably with reason) and I know vars are local to a function, so now I'm wondering if it is actually necessary to remove local variables

ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Editor - Creating Function To Delete Entries

Sep 27, 2004

I'm creating something like a text editor. I have text-movieclips at set coordinates. I'm trying to create a function to delete entries. My idea is that my cursor is at the text-mc's coordinate so I'd like to be able to connect the delete key to any clip that happens to match my cursor(x,y). Like this:

if ((Key.getCode() == Key.DELETEKEY)){
if((anytxtclip == cursor._x) && (anytxtclip == cursor._y)) {
delete anytxtclip
}}

I think I'm looking for a world variable to describe anytxtclip.

Flex :: Combobox Backspace Or Delete Key Does Not Delete Highlighted Text

Mar 26, 2010

I am implementing a flex auto-suggest combobox - as the user types in each character: Consider the string 'Stackoverflow' and user input = 'st'

1) the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 'st'
2) text is set to auto-suggest string such that the un-typed part is highlighted.

So for instance, the combobox text may contain st'ackoverflow', where 'ackoverflow' is highlighted using setSelectedIndex()When I hit back-space or delete, and check the 'this.text' value, I expect that the last un-highlighted character ('t' in the above case) gets deleted and the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 's'. However the text property contains 'st', as before

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Stop Timer Function

Nov 4, 2004

I'm using this timer code for my game.

It should play 10 seconds and then go to the next scene.

PHP Code:

function timer(){
seconds=seconds-1;
if (seconds < 0) {

[Code].....

Well that works, but when I click on the play-again-button in the next scene, it won't play for 10 seconds (but less). I think the timer goes on without stopping. How can I stop the timer function when I move to the next scene?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Variables For Timer Function

Jan 1, 2011

I'm making an animation of calculating a projectile motion with air resistance based on Python code from [URL]. I include the relevant portions of codes as follow. I'm not familiar of the vector object in AS3 so I translate them into variables as follow:

Actionscript Code:
//timer related variablesvar
fps:uint = stage.frameRate;var interval:Number = 1/fps;
var myTimerYes:Timer = new Timer(1000/fps);
//air resistance timermyTimerYes.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, startSimYes);
function startSimYes(e:TimerEvent):void{
[Code] .....

The timer activates when the user clicks the start button. The start buttons set the variables for the timer function. The variables are created at the start of the actionscript file. The code of the start button is:

Actionscript Code:
start_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goTimer);
function goTimer(e:MouseEvent):void{m = int(airText_mc.mass_txt.text);
A = int(airText_mc.refA_txt.text);
Cd = int(airText_mc.Cd_txt.text);
rho = int(airText_mc.density_txt.text);
[Code] .....

The result I get is the aX = 0 all the time, even after the update I specified in the timer codes. I can't understand what's wrong with the code, it's supposed to be updating every time the timer goes on.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Timer To Recursive Function?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Why Does Timer Event Not Start Function

Dec 28, 2010

I have a function that fades out sound. It works perfectly well, yet the mirror of that which is supposed to fade IN my sounds does not start looping.[code]The issue is that the Fade_in_timer calling VOL_up never starts looping.And the very same code works well when dV is subtracted from setVol.setVol, dV and Vol are global variables defined at the top of my main code. "timers" is an array to keep track of all new timers in case I need to stop them all and remove them.the other fadeout function that works well only differs in the names of the timer and the stop criterion and that setVol is decreased gradually.
