ActionScript 2.0 :: Aligning Variable Sized Objects And Objects Inside Them
Jun 29, 2006
How do I align a movieclip, which width and height is user-defined, inside another object (this one is static, though). Top-left alignment is easy, x=0 and y=0, but what about center, center left, bottom left, etc? Math(.round) i suppose, but how?I want an object (static) inside the movieclip (user-defined) to stay aligned to, for instance, the top right corner, similiar to the minimize, maximize and close buttons at the top right of your browser.. The height and width data is pre-defined by the user in another file.But that does probably not make any difference...

I am aligning my display objects in the middle. stage.stageWidth/2. for some reason, they are aligning further off to the right of the screen. I haven't altered anything but the stage width in flash. Has anyone heard of this problem? Again, I haven't done anything except widen the screen and adjust the height.
My focus point on the display object is top left. So it aligns perfectly when set to 0,0
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.stageWidth = 300;

I have an attached movieclip that duplicates boxes vertically. All the boxes are different heights, because I've scripted it to adjust with the amount of xml text contained inside these boxes.
How do I get these boxes to line up right without overlapping eachother?

Internally Flash obviously keeps a list of the primitives drawn using Graphics so I wondered if you have many such primitives in a Sprite, can you re-position/remove/alter individual items rather than clear and re-draw everything? Or is this deeper into the bowels of Flash than you're allowed (or recommended) to go?

I'm using Zend AMF to send my remote objects to Flex. I've defined a Constant class and created getASClassName() method. Then I've created Action script class in flex.
Objects are send successfully, but they are deserialized to generic Objects in Flex instead of specific ones. EDIT: On network monitor in Flex I can see that AMF value is set to com.my.project.valueobjects.Constant. Although array from event.result contains Objects.

I have an array of temporary objects created in a for loop. The objects are of type class "Tile", a class I created. However, it appears that whenever I create a lot of tiles in the for loop, the program slows down indefinitely.
While the array is whiped at a later trigger point, I am thinking that perhaps these Tile objects are not being erased from memory. They are being created on the fly in a for loop, and the array is being reset to "array = []".
Are the objects still in memory or are they cleaned up when the array is set to []?

What I have is a game with a Level object, inside the Level is a Player object, and they don't have instance names given, what I'm trying to figure out is how to do is make it so that the player can change the x or y properties of the Level object.
To be more precise, I'm making it so that when the player moves in a certain direction, he either moves accross the stage, or he starts moving the Level object around the stage, it'd be in an Event kind of function, now I can easily make the Player move, but I don't know how to make the Level object move which the player is inside of.

I have a service which returns an Array of ObjectProxy objects. I would like to cast this to a custom object (a value object) and create an ArrayCollection. How can I do this?ited:I am using Django and PyAMF for the backend. I had to write a custom SQL query and I am wrapping the resulting records in ObjectProxy and sending the whole result as an ArrayCollection.Here is my client side code:
[ArrayElementType("SessionVO")]
[Bindable]
private var _list:ArrayCollection;

I will try to give as much detail as I can. I am creating an CRM application using Flex(Cairngorm 2)/Java/Hibernate. The basic problem I am having is this: I have a Customer class in Java that has an ArrayList of Address classes. I have a Customer class in Flex that has an ArrayCollection of Address classes. When I make the remote object call for a Customer I get back a Customer object in Flex, but the ArrayCollecion objects have a data type of Object instead of Address. If I try to call for a List of Address classes I get the same result. If I try to call for a List of Customer classes I get a list of Customer classes in Flex. Using tomcat 6 with the following jars:

I want to create a flash movie which firstly loads a selection of images/objects into a portion of the frame. After this is complete, the user can then drag these objects onto another area and the object will be created where the user has chosen. The user can then drag another instance of the ojects onto the area.
For example, there is a background of a lake in one area. A selection of boat pngs are loaded in an area below the lake. The user can drag these boats and place them on the lake. They can drag a boat multiple times if they wish.

I have two movie-clips, one is small-box and another is big-box .Both are rectangular shape. Small- box has an index 0, and big-box has an index 1. Their x,y are same and big-box being big in size gets hide small-box. Now the problem is the listener attached to small-box does not fire as big-box is on the top of small-box. what would be the way to get listener fired when click on small-box area??

Is this the correct, most efficient way to recycle objects when creating an array of objects?
package com {
public class CreateList extends MovieClip {
//this is the object I will be recycling
private var newProperty:PropertyRow;
//this is the array I will use to reference the objects

I have a MovieClip symbol created with flash in a fla file library. There is a textfield in frame one of this movieclip's timeline . There is another frame in the movieclip timeline. There is a custon class definition for this symbol. It is a flipping card in a memory game.
I access the textfield by going to frame 2 (gotoAndStop(2)) and setting the textfield's text property ( this.field.text = "hello" ). However if I go to frame 1 and then return to frame 2, the text becomes the original one in the library's symbol. I have to modify the text propery again in a showFace method I've written.
Besides, I cannot pass parameters in the constructor because it is a symbol in the library and that would give errors.Is there a way I can set properties inside frames permanently?

I have a syntax problem using Actionscript. Can I create new objects from inside an ArrayColletion ?
var tagsList:TagsListModel = new TagsListModel(new ArrayCollection([
{new TagModel("News", 36, yearPopularity, false, true)},
{new TagModel("Information", 18, yearPopularity, false, true)}
]);
This is the error I get:
1084: Syntax error: expecting colon before rightbrace.

I've never actually fooled around with 2d arrays that much. What I need is to access an array and get all the objects inside of it. I actually mocked up a little something to mirror what I want.
ActionScript Code:
var arr:Array = [[{name:"Hat", price:"34", url:"http://www.google.com"},
{name:"Scarf", price:"38", url:"http://www.yahoo.com"},
[code]....
I don't have any trouble getting the data, but as you can see that it's pushing each object separately in an array. So it would look like this: I just need to get all of the objects first like {obj}, {obj}, {obj} and then push them into an array.

I've got 4 arrays with 14 objects each:
player1[]
player2[]
player3[]
player4[]
How could I trace all the objects inside 2 fors? How is the right syntax ? The following obviously is wrong:
Code:
for(var i:uint=1;i<5;i++)
{
for(var j:uint=0;j<14;j++)
{
trace((player+i)[j].cardType);
}
}

I´m starting to learn flash cs5 a couple hours ago. Currently i´m learning how to use layers. Imagine that I put a rectangle and an elipse inside layer 1. Then I create a new layer with a photo. How can I see the list (root) of objects that are inside each layer? I know that I can use the outline color to visually identify them but is it possible to see the objects as a root?

So I've got problem with some drawing objects inside movieclip in my flash file... Setting width and height of flash to match browser's w&h got my movie clip to get correct values, but unfortunately drawing objects inside of it are not scaled as movieclip. Those object are just random stripes that got some tween on it acting as somekind of preloader... All graphics are pulled from ai file, so no AS was used to manipulate them, just pure tweening in design mode...So if my stage w & h are lets say 720 x 50, graphics inside movieclip are 1600 x 900 which match my monitor's resolution.

Has anyone successfully used hitTestObject on objects that weren't on the stage?
I have game code that works fine when the objects on are the stage, but replace "stage" with "this" (the game object that covers the whole stage) and it doesn't work.

I know that I should use pythagore to calculate the distance, but I need to calculate distance between 2 objectfs that are contained within 2 different movie clips. Something in the line of :
xdist = Math.round(follow.p1._x - photo1_mc.p1._x);
ydist = Math.round(follow.p1._y - photo1_mc.p1._y);
distancefromthis = Math.round(Math.sqrt((xdist*xdist) + (ydist*ydist)));
But distancefromthis contains always the same value, maybe it's because _x is calculated within the movie clip, so I need to find the photo1.p1._x in the stage.

i have a problem accessing the objects present inside an array.
For example,
var array:Array=new Array();
var obj:Object = {};
var int a=1; var int b=1;var int c=1; var int d=1;

Later I am able to get the array length but how can i get the values inside the objects??
One more thing is i am sending this array to php so how can i access the object values inside an array in php.

How can I use arrays and some how display my objects accordingly based on my code below?What I have here are three buttons that when clicked a new clip is added to the stage with a predefined position which means that when button1 is clicked the MovieClip will be added at the very top and when button2 is clicked the MovieClip will be added at second and when button3 is clicked the clip will be added at the very bottom, but what I would like to do is to be able to dynamically position these objects based on how many clips exist, in other words if button3 is clicked first, I want the clip to be positioned at the very top and if later button1 is clicked the clip is positioned Accordantly (at second place).
I know this may be simple, in fact I could probably use a few IF statements but I know the code would look ugly (yes, even more) and I may have add more buttons later. What I would be awesome is to some-how use arrays or something that makes more sense to hold the MovieClips and then display them accordingly.
Code:
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addItem1, false,0,true);
button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addItem2, false,0,true);
button3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addItem3, false,0,true);

I have drawn colored rods which I have placed in the library and have put one of each on the stage with instance names likeblueRod_mc, etc.I place them around with time-line code like
blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;I have now created an Actionscript class called Problem.I build a new object from Problem which I have called Riddle.But when I put blueRod_mc.x = 300.0 in a method (of Problem),I get the message that blueRod is not accessible.So I triedstage.blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;That did not work either.

When I copy layers and edit the objects on stage, the objects also change in the other layer(s).
How do I duplicate a layer so that I can modify it with the objects in the old layer being unaffected? There must be a really easy way?
