From my external app I can see the functions and variables with a for-in loop of the loaded swf, but it can't access the functions. I've also tried accessing the variables and functions in the external app also to no avail.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to simply access anything inside this loaded SWF and all I get is 'null'.
I have code in the parent SWF that needs to tell the child SWF movieclip what to do but nothing works. This was a piee of cake in AS2 and I can't seem to get anything to crossover in AS3.
Here's my code:
import com.greensock.TweenMax;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
[Code]......
panel2 traces null and all the clips loaded within pull up undefined property errors.
i don't know why the calling of the "currentFrame" function is not working
ActionScript Code:
function loadMovie(MovieName:String,targetName:MovieClip){
var mLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(MovieName);
[Code].....
[Code]...
with the code above how would you call the function clicker from the function clicker2? as with the code i have it comes up with the error "1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen befor colon")

View 3 RepliesI have this function in the parent class:
ActionScript Code:
private m_colors:Array;
protected function set colors(clrs:Array):void {
m_colors = clrs;
}
Then, in my child class I want to call this as:
super.colors = [15, 255];
But it throws an error, it says:
Ambiguous reference to colors. If I do the same with a common function, not a setter one, then just calling it with its name in my child class works fine.

View 7 Repliesi'm attaching clips from library using attachMovie. inside those clips are functions. I'd like to call those functions a few lines after instantiating them using 'attachMovie.' It seems that the clip isn't fully loaded because my functions aren't being called. I tried using movieClip.onLoad, but no dice.
View 1 RepliesNo idea what I'm doing wrong here, it just won't let me access any of my public methods on my class. I just keep getting "Error 1180: call to a possibly undefined method"!
If I run the same function in the constructor of the class everything is fine.

Nothing seem to happen when I call the functions, values that are supposed to be returned from the function call are undefined.[code]...
I'm loading a flash file using the built in Loader class. How can I call one of the original swf's functions from the loaded swf?I know about LocalConnection and using that with other SWFs on the same webpage, but is there a better way of doing it if you're loading an swf within another? The reason is that I need to get a return value from the function, and local connection's send() only provides a true/false.
View 0 RepliesI have a file which loads a series of SWFs. It loads one, allows it to play to completion, then stops. Right now, it will just wait for the user to press a button and select the next one. However, I need it to play them sequentially. Is there any way for the SWFs which get loaded to access the functions which control the SWF loading?

I can load it no problem, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to access the functions, I can't seem to find it anywhere!

I am trying to write C++ code to interface to arbitrary instances of flash player 10 contained in arbitrary web pages from IE. All I need to be able to do is:
1) determine if the player is playing,
2) start playback, and
3) stop playback.
I am searching for a way to so this programmatically, without resorting to simulating user input to the control.
I have played around with the IShockwaveFlash COM interface which works OK on some sites but not others (e.g. not on YouTube). I am wondering if it is possible to use IShockwaveFlash::CallFunction() with the appropriate XML string to invoke predefined functions in ActionScript that have not been explicitly exported using ExternalInterface.addCallback().
Or perhaps there is enough functionaly using accessibility and the IAccessible interface?
I've got clips being attached using attachMovie (clips are in the library with linkage id's).
inside those clips are two functions. I'm trying to access those functions after I attach the clips, but not getting anywhere.
I assume that the methods of my attached clip (the functions) aren't available immediately, but rather after the clip actually 'loads' to the stage they are.
