View 3 Replieshow do i assign a var to a function.[code]
View 3 RepliesOne of the things that I love about AS 1/2 is with scrpt assist on, the ability to click a box and assign an action to a button (over, rollout, rollover, click, etc.). With action script 3, at least in CS4 that interaction isn't there and you have to write the code.I'm wondering if in CS5 there is that ability with AS3? Am I the only designer who misses this function.
View 1 RepliesI was just curious if you HAVE to assign the return value of a function to something in order to preform operations on it.
Code:
something.getClip().onRelease = function() {
//
}
Thats probably illegal right? It's illegal in C++, but theres usually a way to get around it like.. (getFocusClip()).onRelease. Or should I just forget it and do it the right way:
Code:
var tempClip:MovieClip = something.getClip();
tempClip.onRelease = function() {
//
}
If the province is zoomed IN when I click another province I want it to return to its original size and have the next province that I clicked on zoom IN. Each time I zoom a province IN I want to set a variable to the value 1 so that I can use it as an indicator to let me know the status of the other provinces. Ie: if variable ON (Ontario) has a value of 1, then when I zoom IN on Manitoba I will use an IF statement to determine that Ontario is currently zoomed in (ON has a value of 1) and will zoom Ontario out prior to zooming in Manitoba. When I zoom out Ontarion I will reset the ON variable to 0. My code for Ontario looks like this[code]...

When I worked with Flash CS3 and CS4, you could click on an element (such as a photo or a button) and a URL field would appear within the properties pane. From there, you could assign a URL to this element. I'm trying to figure out how to do this in CS5, but I can't find any way of doing it without actions
Is there anyway to simply assign a URL to an element in CS5?
I am new to AS3 and, I am just trying some simple(maybe) functions. Is it possible to assign values to a movie clip? I have three buttons and I want each one to have a value (1, 2, and 3). I tried

So how can assign clip no?
assign a number value to an mc. So I'm done my early work on it and am ready to try and integrate this function. I'm making a small change game. So game is split into five scenes, each scene the person will receive a receipt. The person will have change in their hand (all canadian denominations). They have to look at the receipt and the change in their hand (both mcs), and figure out if its correct. If not they drag change from another pile and place it in the hand. So here's what I'm looking at trying to accomplish. I'd like to have a check change button (simple mc). I'm guessing that each coin needs a numeric value associated with it (no clue on if or how you could do this). If the numbers add up to the predetermined bill value (so I'm guessing I'd give that a numeric value as well), i hit the check button and it'll see if the change in the hand adds up to match what the bill should. So here's where my code sits currently, still tweaking as we speak. I'm still new so be gentle on my code I know its long.
