ActionScript 2.0 :: Access TextBox In Multiple MovieClips?
Aug 16, 2010
I am new to actionscript. I have a movie clip (mc)in my library. The Movieclip has a dynamic text whose instance is "dynamic_txt". I need to create copies of movieclip and each dynamic_txt within that mc, want to assign a value.
for (i=1 , i< 20, i++) {
mymc = mc add i;
duplicatemovieclip(mc, mymc,10);
_level0.mymc.dynamic_txt.text = i
}
However, "_level0.mymc.dynamic_txt.text = i " is giving me compilation error. Will it be
_level0.['mymc'].dynamic_txt.text = i
or
_level0.'mymc'.dynamic_txt.text = i
or anything else. I have tried few combination and either its compilation error or not working as required.

I need to have a button that contains a text box, and have the text change. First, is there a way to access a text box directly in a SimpleButton? While I know this doesn't work, it would look something like
Code:
btn.upState.textField.text="Text"
Second, since I could not get that to work, I made a movie clip, put the button i made in it, and simply put the text box over the button. The problem this creates is that when the mouse is hovering over just the button it is in the over state. When the button moves over the text box it goes back to the up state. Why it does this and if it is possible for the button to still be in its over state when the mouse is over an object that is on top of the button itself?

My goal is making a navigation section that is a scrollable box. I thought the easiest solution was to make a dynamic text box and put a scroll bar on it. Worked until it came time to make the links. It is only letting me make one link for all the text. Also I think I want more control for the mouseover look.

I have 25 textboxes on stage named sw1 through to sw25. I want to evaluate the contents of each box using a for loop.
for(var i = 1; i<26;i++)
{
var t = "sw"+i
trace (t.text)
}
I get this error message when I run my program:

i am having trouble loading multiple variables into a multline textbox. I am using asp which will output a recordset into flash. For testing purposes var0 should equal three names in my array. Flash is only reading 1. How do I set flash up to read that whole array(3 variables in one textbox)? I know Flash won't output var1 or var2 because I don't have those textfields with those variable names.
Here's what var0 outputs

Here's my Flash code
Code:
loadVariablesNum("http://www.delusionalfx.com/exp/flash_asp/register/test.asp",0,"GET");

I have a group of 16 images that I would like to load 1 of each into each movieclip. I want image1 to be inside of visual1, image 2 inside of visual2, and so on. the images are named like, 1960s_(1).png where the 1960 (year) part is coming from the rangeNum variable. The above gives me this error: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type int.

I'm doing a project using ActionScript 2 where I'm loading in text from an XML file to dynamic text boxes. I'm loading everything in on the first frame, but there are boxes that do not exist in the timeline until frame 5 or so. Is there anyway I can access those to set their text property from the first frame

I am trying to duplicate an MC 11 times - that works fine. But the MC has a dynamic text box centered on it. I would like the first one to say "1900" and each one after to be increased by 10. So the second one says "1910", the third says "1920" and so on. I have this code on an MC called "timeline". The MC I am trying to duplicate is called "bar" and is with "timeline":
[AS]
onClipEvent(load){
for(i=0; i < 12; i++) {
_root.timeline.bar.duplicateMovieClip("copy"+i, i);
ext = _root.timeline["copy"+i];
ext._x = 125 * i;
[Code] .....
but to no avail. The dynamic text box on the bar MC is called "year". I have tried making that the var as well as the instance name and still no luck.

I have 50 images that need to be on stage, which will be embedded into 50 different movie clips. I named the movie clips image1-image50 and the images are in an external folder named 1-50. Every freaking article or tutorial I have found clearly explains how to upload one image, or just one at a time. I can do that, and spend 2 days renaming all the functions, but I do not want to do that. Is there a better way to just load all 50 images, place them accordingly?

I have some button code on frame one. that looks like this:
[AS]on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
mylogin = new LoadVars();
mylogin.password = password;
mylogin.username = username;
[code]....
basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

I have a good bit of knowledge regarding OOP underneath my belt, and working with AS3 has so far been pretty awesome. That being said I am having a little bit of trouble working with Inverse Kinematic structures and AS3.Here is my predicament:
So what I would like to have is a number of tentacles on the stage that reach out for the mouse cursor. Through all the tutorials and whatnot that I have sorted through thus far I have gotten it working, however I have only gotten it working when the armatures are placed in the main scene. I have made a tentacle movie clip that has an armature within it and placed a number of those within the scene. I can modify the positions of the endJoints of those tentacle movie clips by gaining reference to the respective armatures using the following [code]...

What are the steps necessary to access movieclips from an imported swf within a Flex application?

I have imported a swf (not created with Flex, i.e. non-framework) into a Flex application. Once loaded, I would like to access movieclips within that imported swf. [URL].. it seems straightforward; however, their examples are between a Flex app and an imported swf (created with Flex).
Like their example, I'm trying to use the SystemManager to access the imported swf's content; however, I receive the following error:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::MovieClip@58ca241 to mx.managers.SystemManager. Is this error occurring because I'm importing a non-framework swf into a framework swf?

I'm new to actionscript 3 and I'm trying to get a few simple things going, such as setting variables in other movieclips... So let's say I have an "apple" movieclip on the root/stage, and I want to access other variables on the root, or in other movieclips. How would I do that? In actionscript 2, I would use something like
_root.thisVar = 1;
_parent.thisVar = 1;
and with other movie clips I would use
