ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS3] Involves For Loop Making MCs Hidden Then Visible?
Feb 20, 2009
On frame level, frame 1 populate the layout (to deal seven cards to a player as selected):
Code:
playerA_cards=["dealt_card_a1", "dealt_card_a2", "dealt_card_a3", "dealt_card_a4", "dealt_card_a5", "dealt_card_a6", "dealt_card_a7"];
playerB_cards=["dealt_card_b1", "dealt_card_b2", "dealt_card_b3", "dealt_card_b4", "dealt_card_b5", "dealt_card_b6", "dealt_card_b7"];
playerC_cards=["dealt_card_c1", "dealt_card_c2", "dealt_card_c3", "dealt_card_c4", "dealt_card_c5", "dealt_card_c6", "dealt_card_c7"];
playerD_cards=["dealt_card_d1", "dealt_card_d2", "dealt_card_d3", "dealt_card_d4", "dealt_card_d5", "dealt_card_d6", "dealt_card_d7"];
playerE_cards=["dealt_card_e1", "dealt_card_e2", "dealt_card_e3", "dealt_card_e4", "dealt_card_e5", "dealt_card_e6", "dealt_card_e7"];

It should work. It doesn't. Similarly does not work on buttons which are also too numerous to mention, so making them visible one at a time would be an untold hassle. I would love these five arrays to be bunched in a subarray but right now getting it to work, period, is job one.

I am currently creating an online portfolio using Slideshowpro [URL]. For some of my pictures I am using (external) captions from a XML file, inserted into a dynamic textfield. As some of the captions contain a lot of text I decided to add a UIScrollBar. However, when there is no text (no caption) available, I want the scrollbar to be hidden. Also if there is not enough text to warrant a scrollbar it would be great if it could be hidden!
Code below, note that "t_txt" is the instance name of my dynamic textfield:
import flash.text.TextField;
import net.slideshowpro.slideshowpro.*;
import fl.controls.UIScrollBar;
XML.ignoreWhitespace = true;
//remove scrollbar from stage, scrollbar component must be in library
var sbContent:UIScrollBar = new UIScrollBar();

It's probably a no brainer, but I've spent the last 40 minutes or so looking for it to no avial.
I have a Canvas control with a fixed width and a horizontal scrollbar.I'm trying to find the actual width of the control.The .width (fixed width) + the part being revealed by the scrollbar.I tried explicitWidth, width + maxHorizontalScrollPosition, and some other combos but non of them hit the spot.

I have one button, that when clicked should display several images, one at a time. At the minute they are all just coming on together, how do i seperate the functions so they come on individually, for example like bullet points, e.g click once and image1 appears, click again and image2 appears etc... so eventually all of the images are on screen, but they don't all just appear together, if that makes sense!

When I was using Flash CS4, it published a HTML file that showed the text content of the movie, which made it easy for search engines to index the site. However, in Flash CS5.5, I notice it doesn't appear to do that anymore.
What do I do (step-by-step) to make my movie content visible to search engines?

I mostly use flash for the animation, so my action script tends to be mostly functional.
I am now however having an issue, i am using a variable called language which I am setting in frame one as "dutch", "english" , "german" etc... Im then using this to set dynamic text as appropriate in each frame as necessary.(and yes i may switch this to case statements )
if (language == "dutch")
{ tcMC.peasantBubble1.peasantSpeech.text= "Bescherm je een schat?"};
My problem is however that one Movieclip does not see the language variable.
Is there anway in CS4 i can direct it to where it is, or define the varibale instead to be global (perhaps id have to change it from a string though)?

I have my main menu movieclip placed on the main stages and I use it to load some external swfs. However when I load them, the menu disappears because it is covered by the loaded swf. How can I set the depth of my top menu so that will always be visible when the external swfs are loaded? Should the depth be set on the main time line or inside the main manu movie clip? This is the code in my main menu that I am using to load the swfs but my main menu is a movie clip placed on the main timeline...
Code:
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/welcome.swf");
loader.load(defaultSWF);
stage.addChild(loader);

We are planning to create a website which involves uploading video.The issue is this video must be edited (cropped, resized and shortened) by the uploaded. Does anyone know of a solution/set of apis, where this can be accomplished?I had a look at the YouTube apis but there are no editing or uploading methods that I could find.

I am undergoing a huge flash project at the moment and as wondering whether or not an approach would work for something. Basically everything in the project involves loading data and movie clips dynamically in certain arrangements etc. I have built everything already bar a couple of things to create demos including dynamically loading mcs from the library etc all with as3, but now I am moving on to loading data dynamically and before I immerse myself completely I was wondering whether or not something is possible. Basically as I mouse over an mc i want a couple of things to come up which would be held in a database, such as a question and an answer, but this data will change quite frequently when the demo is up and running, is it possible for the data to be updated in the dynamic text boxes without mousing out and mousing over again? That is one of my concerns ( I have a couple ).
I had thought of maybe using a timer to query the database every 2 to 3 minutes and use php and mysql with as3 to then load the data into the text boxes, hopefully without having to mouseover the mc again and simply leaving the cursor over the mc the whole time. My main concern is whether or not I can query the database on a regular basis... using a timer method as described above, or is this simply stagnant data? i.e. can i use php and mysql in as3 to continuously query a database?

I'm trying to make a movie loop only 3x. On the first frame I have:
Code:
var loop==1;
then, on the last frame, before I send the movie to frame2, I have
Code:
loop++;
if (loop==3){stop;}
But the movie continues, then goes to frame 2 again.
How can I make the movie loop only 3x?

I'm loading XML, but I'm having trouble making a for loop so that I can output into text fields my xml info. I use this to load and put into the output window. Eventually I will put it into a text field. What I want really to do is for flash to output a list. This is what I want it to look like.
PHP Code:
var newsXML:XML = new XML();
newsXML.ignoreWhite = true;
var output:String = "";
newsXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
var news:Array = newsXML.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
[Code] .....
If you look at this XML you will see that there are many different Tournaments. What I want is to have them all in a list. I also want to have scrolling bar.

I can't create new variables within a for loop:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i<numBtn; i++) {
var this['menuBtn'+i] = new Sprite();
}
This doesn't work, saying I need an identifier before 'this'.
What I am trying to do is to make a dynamic menu, and the number of buttons depend on how many files there are in a directory, as each button links to each file;I get this value (numBtn in my example) from a php script, and I need to make a menu depending on it, but I can't seem to make it so that when I add a new file into that directory, a new button comes up on the menu and I don't have to change my flash file.

I'm using MovieClipLoader to load in external swfs so that I don't need to include a preloader on each one. I'm really unfamiliar with this technique, including how to use and implement listeners and follow the functionality after using it, I've just been playing with borowed code.basically i've been trying to use this code:
Code:
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(this);

I'm trying to make a preloader for a little flash project that involves re-assembling a load of rectangles to make up a pattern.Idea is that instead of the usual load bar i wanted to make use of this pattern that is relevant to the project and have it rebuild it self with these rectangles flying in from the side. So far I have got the tweening sorted using the tween class and staggered the 42 (yes took a little while, probably an easier way so let me know on that also) rectangles using 'setTimeout' so it releases each 100milliseconds after the one one before it. This probably the wrong way to do it but i wanted to check how it looked and this was the one way i knew how to do it.
I want to make it so that these rectangles fly in a complete the pattern once the loading has finished, but on a fast connection I don't want it to rush the animation but for a slow connection I obviously want it to adjust the release time and maybe even the travel speed to compensate.
I had an idea of maybe working out the percentage loaded divided by 42 and then run an if statement to see if that percentage for that segment had been reached before 100millseconds had passed, if 100 had passed then release the rectangle, if not then hold the rectangle until 100 m/s had passed. Not sure if that is the best way to do but that's why I'm looking for some suggestions from more experienced developers.
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.Regular;
// declare variables

I want to click on an object and make it appear and disappear. As the object is rectangular, I figured putting a white button the same size on a white background on a layer underneath the object would do this, but I can't seem to make it happen.I'm a complete novice, frustrated as I've been trying to achieve this all day and I'm sure it should be pretty simple, but could you give me the idiots guide. I know how to name an instance, make an object, script in actions on a separate layer. I would like to draw the button myself and give it an instance rather than drag it off the button component (as I can't work out how to make the component button white, change its size etc.!)
