Flash :: Access Dynamic Text Field Within A Button Using An Event Handler?
Feb 10, 2011I have what seems to be a simple task, yet I cannot seem to figure it out. I am busy creating a project in ActionScript 3, and while I am fairly fluent in ActionScript 2, I am being stumped a bit here.
I have a simple dynamic text field inside a button object. This text field has the name of txt_title. I have attached event handlers to change the alpha of the buttons when they are hovered over, however I also want to change the value of the text field within the button, when hovered over. My event listener looks like follows:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Event Handler For Button - Error #1009: Cannot Access A Property Or Method Of A Null Object Reference?
Nov 24, 2009I seem to be having a recurring problem attaching events to a button i have created within 2 other movieclips.I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
So it looks like it can't find the button, in order to attach the event listener. The question is why? I am attaching a similar event to a button on the main timeline and that works fine. So it looks like a scope issue, but I am referring to it properly.
code below:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mind-bending Access Control - Assign A Private Method Of Class As An Event Handler To The FlashMOGService Object
Feb 15, 2011I have written a framework that facilitates RPC calls between AS3 and PHP 5 called FlashMOG. I recently got a forum request that has introduced a pretty bizarre question regarding access control. This will be a lot easier to discuss if you have access to the FlashMOG 0.3.1 client source which is here:
[code]...
The basic idea is that I have a FlashMOGService class which has an RPCSocket member that it may share with other FlashMOGService objects. The idea is that you can create two distinct FlashMOGService objects and have them both connect to the same host/port via socket. I use my special RPCSocket class for two reasons:
1) Let developers use one port but separate functionality into two distinct services...a form of multiplexing i guess
2) RPCSocket adds functionality to the standard Socket class that works to serialize and unserialize data and get it where it needs to go. The essence of the problem here is that created a class with a FlashMOGService object as a member and has tried to assign a private method of his class as an event handler to the FlashMOGService object:
[Code]....
My initial thought is that this should be fine because it's all done within the class. However, when I consider the monkey chain that results in this function being called, it seems almost logical that it wouldn't work. The problem is that the browser freezes when a socket message arrives that tries to call the service's client method, _service.client.firstClientMethod. This client firstClientMethod is attempted when data arrives from the server on the Socket (an RPCSocket, actually). The RPCSocket class deserializes the socket data and extracts an array with a service name, a method name, and an array of arguments. It looks into its own private class variable (an array of services using the RPCSocket) and tries to invoke whatever function was assigned thusly:
[Code]....
I'm guessing there's some kind of infinite loop going on to check access control for the various intertwined classes.

Jul 30, 2009I've been searching this forum and googling for quite some time, and I haven't been able to come up with anything. Anyway, here's a description:I have an array that has multiple instances of the same movie clip. I add them to the stage and then add an eventListener to each one.I have that working fine. The problem is, I'd like to add a filter to them and remove an eventListener once the eventHandler has been activated. However, I have no way to know which instance set off the eventListener. Is there any way I can pass that information into the eventHandler function? Or is there any way I can access the parent from the evenHandler itself? [code]
View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Referencing Movieclip Event Handler Is Called From When Using Delegate?
Aug 24, 2006I'm using Delegates in a new project I'm working on to call an event handler in my class with the scope of the class.
I'm having an issue referencing which button is calling this handler. Since all of my buttons are created dynamicly, this is a big problem.
I'm used to using forms and components where I had no problem with this and could reference who was calling the event handler by using - event.target
This doesn't seem to be the case with movieclips though, is there another way to do this?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Check If An Animation Of A Movieclip Is Finished (no Tween Handler)?
Feb 4, 2007I'm having some difficulties on checking when an animation in a movieclip is finished. It's not a tween, otherwise I could make a tween handler with the "onMotionFinished"-property. My situation is different.My movieclip has 60 frames with each frame containing a 3D image. These 60 frames make the impression that a die is rotated in 3D.How do I check in the actions of my scene (root) when the animation is finished?
I already tried making an interval that constantly polls if a variable "finished" is set to true (which the movieclip sets to true on its last frame).This solution isn't really accurate enough due to the interval number.Setting the interval to 1 millisecond won't do any good either.Is there a listener object or something else that makes this possible?On my last frame of the movieclip is a stop() statement which might be polled by a listener?

ActionScript 2.0 :: MX: Attach An "onRollOver"-handler To The Movieclip But It Doesn't Respond - Array
Sep 28, 2005I have a loop that goes through an array and duplicates (and positions) movieclips on the scene and loads JPGs into them with "loadMovie". I then try to attach an "onRollOver"-handler to the movieclip but it doesn't respond. Here's the thing: It works fine when I don't load the images into the MC instances... but as soon as I do, the onRollOver is not responsive anymore.
I read the telltale line "loading a JPG or SWF into a movieclip replaces it"... is that the cause of the problem? I mean- can I not refer to the duplicated MCs anymore as soon as I load something into them? How could I work around it?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access To Variables By A MovieClip In A MovieClip
Jul 15, 2010I'm making a fighting game and so far all the controls are good, characters can walk, run attack etc. My problem: The character is a MovieClip, Guy, and is exported to a class Guy. In Guy.as I have a boolean "hitting" which is set to default "false". If the Guy object hitTests an enemy while "hitting" is true, the enemy will take tamage.
In the Guy MovieClip there are about 7 frames, each with its own animation. 3 of those frames are attacking animations in form of MovieClips, i.e, if we click them we get another set of frames. Say one of the attack MovieClips has 10 frames in it, frame 7 of 10 is where the punch actually lands, this is when I want the enemy to take damage, not before (while the character is still moving his hand forward). Seeing as this frame is inside a MovieClip which is inside another MovieClip(Guy), is there a way to access the property "hitting" with this inner frame?

More specific I want to set a TextField to a certain value from a "preloader"-scene. This is for handling totally dynamic language phrases. Maybe this is the wrong way.

We could do this by altering all MovieClips, but I think this could be a smart solution, if it's possible! :)

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Access Variable From Within Movieclip.
Sep 14, 2010On the first frame I have a string variable called "nextSection". When the user clicks on a menu item on the site then "nextSection" is populated with the name of that section. Later on in the fla I have a movieclip containing various sections for the site. The swf compiles without any problems.
I'm now attempting to make the file smaller and easier to update. Rather than have 8 different movieclips that load images, I thought I would just have the one. I changed the following lines in my fla
PHP Code:
// nested within 2 movie clips (sections.aboutUs)loadImage("aboutUs/mainImage.jpg");//nested within 2 movie clips (sections.outdoorAdvertising)loadImage("outdoorAdvertising/mainImage.jpg");// there are 8 of these in total.
[code]...
I'm now getting the error "1120: access of undefined property nextSection". The variable does not contain anything when the file compiles. Only when the user clicks on a menu item does the variable get filled (ie: if user clicks on the OutDoor Advertising button, the variable contains the string "outdoorAdvertising" which is also a folder in the site directory). I tried to populate it with the name of one of the sections on the first frame ( ie: nextSection:String="aboutUs"; ) just to see if it worked but still got the error.
