ActionScript 1/2 :: Making Dynamic Listeners Into A For?
Jan 28, 2011
I have a bunch od images that needs to be loaded and clicked. To do that, i'm using a listener object so when the images are loaded they can be clicked, and that works. But, at the end of the "for" only the last image can be clicked. I'm trying to make a different listener for each image, is this ok? Please, help.
var nn = "image"+j;
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(nn, getNextHighestDepth());
_root[nn]._x = (random(1700))+40;
_root[nn]._y = (random(350))+40;

I need to make a custom event listener (if that's what they are called) so an event listener can pass arguments. I found something on the internet that worked, but it was using regular events and I needed to use mouse events. So I changed some of the code around and it resulted in me producing something that didn't work. Despite this, it didn't return an errors. I use three files: Untitled, UntitledCode, UntitledCustomClass. Here is the code for all of them: (I have attached the final project)Untitled:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
import UntitledCustomClass;

I've created this code to loop through an array of image names and load them to the stage. Currently I'm just stepping them down 175 pixels each, which eventually I'll want to offset by the height of each of them (but I'm having an issue with that too lol ). Anyway...my question is, I've seen code to add event listners to each movie clip dynamically, but that code was working on static movie clips. I want to add the listners to my dynamic images and I'm not sure what that should look like.

I know this isn't correct, specifically in the captureAllClicks function...but I'm not sure how else to reference the current item since it was dynamically generated.

What I want to do is be able to click a button that adds an Item to the stage and then you are able to drag the item around on the stage. I know how to do these things separately as in if the item is already on the stage I know how to add the code to drag it and I know how to create a button that brings a library item on the stage. How would I combine the two?

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
Code: Select allvar iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;
iXML.onLoad = init;
iXML.load("http://localhost:8888/products.php?p=Shortboards");

I have some buttons on my timeline and I want something to be done when I mouse over (for example) my button. The buttons have instance names of b1, b2, b3 and so on. Actionscript I`m using (for the first button) is:
b1.onRollOver = function() {
//blah
}
Same code goes for other buttons, I only change instance name. It is easy to do as I have a few buttons but what if I want 100 or more? It should be an easier way instead of using copy/paste.. Tried to solve this problem using loop:
howmuchbuttons = 3;
for(i = 1; i != howmuchbuttons + 1; i++) {
_root["b"+i].onRollOver = function() {
//blah
}
}
but it didn`t work as I expected.

I'm working with actionscript 3 and have a trouble. I need to write player where users will see text on the front of the movie. The text is text field of type "Dynamic text". The problem is that I need to make this text object transparent for mouse move and clicks.
I tried:
.mouseEnabled=false;
.selectable=false;
when I click on it - it does not pass clicks through it.

Can someone point me in the right direction to making a functional Smooth Dynamic Scroller just like [URL] (Under Portfolio). I'm not saying "The Same" - I mean like, be able to have two icons that I create (One Up and One Down) then have them function the same as the 2Advanced website. Click and hold, it smoothly rolls down/up, release it stops. Also for it to only scroll as far as the content does.

Is it possible to make dynamic text boxes display only full words from an xml feed? At the moment I have a selection of feeds that are supposed to run into each other, but if some of the text is longer than expected I get the first one or two characters of a word tagged on at the end. Is it possible to have the flash read whether it has character space left to display the next word in the xml?
I know it doesn't really recognise spaces etc and just pulls in the info within the node, but maybe there's a work-around if you want to do what I'm trying?

For a project, I'm making an interactive side scroller.You move the character with the arrow keys and press the space bar to interact with things.So far, I followed DexNote's tutorial on YouTube.I thought that I would make the interactable objects as buttons, while the mouse focus would be on the character and when you press the space bar it make a mouse click in that area.The trouble I'm having now is that I don't know how to make the space bar trigger the "interactions."

I have a swf that has key listeners listening for specific key strokes. This works fine until I load the .swf using the loader class. Do key listeners still work within loaded .swfs? Do I need to do something to the event bubbling phase?

I'm trying to take full advantage of the movieClipLoader along with listeners. But my callbacks aren't getting triggered. Inside one function I loadClip, when onLoadComplete happens I set the onRelease function. Within that onRelease I call another function ("cdPress") that also loads bigger images inside a clip.None of the callbacks in the cdPress function are working. The function is being called successfully, but the "onWhatever" callbacks are not.
Code:
function someFunction(){
cdListener.onLoadComplete = function(target_mc) {
target_mc.onRelease = function() {

So I've gotten into using my own as Classes, and have an interesting question.
My main swf calls a php script that gets data from a mysql database which is returned as XML. Part of that data that is retrieved is a filepath to a jpg image. It then takes that filepath and other information, and passes it to my external class, the "news story" class.
All fine and good. Then, the "news story" class uses a loader to load that image along with some text, organize it, and voila, you've got your own very pretty "news story". (I'm extending the MovieClip class here, though I suppose it doesnt matter)
Now, my main swf uses this component to load multiple of these "news stories". The problem is, theres that load time for the image. The main swf is loading them all one at a time, because they are putting each one together on their own.
The key here is that it be dynamic. So, since we don't know how much text is in each "news story", we also therefore don't know it's height. What I'm doing is creating each story in the main swf, pushing it into a "news story" array, adding an event listener to each ones' loader, and when the event listener is triggered, I want it to go to the 'add content' function where it sets the news story's Y value based off the position and height of the previous story that was added (stacking them, obviously). This makes sense, because otherwise it'd add them all on top of each other and it'd be a jumbled mess.
The problem is, the event listener is on the loader object INSIDE the component actionscript. So, how do I figure out which news story to set the Y value for? Because the eventlistener is listening to the loader, not the class. I hope this makes sense AT ALL. Here is the code:
Quote:
while (fancy shmantzy conditions)
{
/*creates the news story and passes xml data to it (filepath, etc)*/
storyBlock = new StoryBlock(a bunch of parameters);
subCBArray.push(storyBlock); //array that stores each news story info
