ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling The Dynamic Creations?

May 15, 2007

I have this code:

Code:
for (i =0; i < txB_NumberOf; i++){
var TextNames:Array = new Array;
TextNames[i] = "text_txt" + i
_root.createTextField(TextNames[i], i, 0, 0, 300, 100);
text_txt1.text = "test text;
;

The code creates a number of text fields based on the number in the variable "txB_NumberOf" each text box gets named text_txt0, text_txt1, text_txt2, text_txt3 etc by storing the names in an array called TextNames and using it as the name field in the createTextField part.

The bit in bold I want to be the name of the newly created Textfield each time through the loop. So instead of just one text box having "test text" in it each textbox gets it.I read somewhere that ... this[TextNames[i]].text = "test text" would work but it doesn't. I've tried everything else I could think of without any luck.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling Dynamic Created MC's

Aug 27, 2006

The menu items are created dynamic out of empty movieclips and have the name movie + x. Now I'm trying to create a method that resets al the other movieclips to their original size and colour when one is pressed. The first problem is to adress the other ones. Even if I try to put the following in the script: movie[x]._alpha = 0; nothing happens..

for (x=1; x<=11; x++) {
eval("movie" + x).onRelease = function() {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Multiple Dynamic Movieclips

Sep 25, 2009

I need to dynamically attach a movieclip from a library and then make it move across the screen.This is quite easy for one movieclip instance, but what I need is to have movieclips spawn at regular intervals then move accross the screen.[code]My question is, how do I continuously attach movieclips without making so many variables? Is my method of attaching even alright for this purpose?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Controlling Dynamic MCs With XML Data

May 15, 2010

I'm pretty new to AS3 but have a project with a very tight turnaround here, having been lumbered with it after a guy from work got taken ill. The basic idea is a visualisation of an XML feed, using the data pulled in to control the behaviour of movieclips. So far I have this;

[Code]...

it isnt too hard to see what I'm trying to do. The above code plops 5 movieclips on the stage, their size dictated by the 'tlength' value, and the next step is to get them moving. Ultimately I'd like these MCs to shift out from the centre of the screen and vary in size and distance depending on the data that is applied to them, but running the current code throws this error; TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter listener must be non-null.

Dynamic Text Loaded From .txt Controlling Movie Clip?

Aug 26, 2009

Basically when loading dynamic text... the .txt will have a simple yes or no inside of it... nothing more nothing less.I've been trying all morning to get a movie clip to begin playing if the value is "yes", and to NOT play if the value is "no"

Basically i have a movie clip on the main time line named WHM. and im loading a dynamic text file into a dynamic text field named player1whm.

I want to be able to change the text file to yes or no on a whim, and if the value is equal to yes... i want the movie clip to begin playing as soon as it loads that value into the box. If it says no then i want that movie clip to continue doing nothing.I have already been successful at getting yes or no to load into the dynamic text box... i just cant seem to get it to control the movie clip.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Depth And Scale In Dynamic Constructs

Jan 26, 2009

I'm just starting to program in AS3 and use it in frames on the main timeline vs OOP. Can you point me at some reference that would cover:-

1) If it is possible to scale a dynamically constructed object over a few frames in the time-line. I draw an object/shape on frame 10 and scale it up from frame 10 to frame 20, for example.

2) If I can control the depth of the dynamically constructed object. I draw an object on frame 10 and on frames 11 through 20 I have some line already drawn on another layer that I want to appear above or below the dynamically drawn shape. I can easily do both of these in AS1 but don't seem to see similar constructs in AS3?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Movieclip With Value In Dynamic Text Field

Jan 29, 2009

I have a movieclip called pointer.mc and this movieclip has only two frames, on the first one the arrow points up and I have a stop(); action on this so it does not jump to the next frame which has the arrow pointing down and this frame also has a stop(); action on it.Then I have a dynamic text field with an instance name of tiderise which is calling a variable from a seperate .txt file called tiderise.txt and the variable is &rise= . Now I have programmed the .txt file to only supply two variables either "up" or "down" and these change periodically during the day. (I am actually making an animated tide chart if you haven't guessed already)

What I want is to get some coding that will control the movieclip pointer.mc between frame 1 and frame 2 depending on the value in the dynamic text field with an instance name of "tiderise" that can only return the value's of "up" or "down".I have spent already about 2 hours trying to figure this out with no luck, I only seem to be able to control other dynamic text fields with values from another dynamic text field, but cannot seem to get this to work on a movieclip.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Letter Spacing Dynamic TextField?

Dec 31, 2009

I can't seem to control my letter spacing (kerning) in my dynamic text field. I gave the field an instance name of about_txt and I loaded the text from a text document. The text shows up fine but it is all bunched together. Here is my code:

Code:
var about_req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("about_txt.txt");
var about_1dr:URLLoader = new URLLoader(about_req);
about_1dr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
function
onComplete(event:Event):void{
about_txt.text = event.target.data;
}var fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
fmt.letterSpacing = 10
about_txt.setTextFormat(fmt);

No matter what value I put in for letterSpacing nothing seems to happen.

Professional :: Controlling One Swf With Another

Aug 23, 2010

I have a site I am working on which has a Flash intro.  The other pages of the site hold a menu that's created in Flash.  For some reason my client wants the ability to go back and view the intro again, which is easily accomplished with navigateToURL.  HOWEVER the intro is broken into two distinct parts and I need to target the second part, which would require something along the lines of gotoAndPlay(500); or something to that effect.
 
What I am having problems with is how do I target a specific frame in a completely different movie, the intro, using a button from the Flash menu within the site.  I'll try to explain it a bit easier.  The top button on staticMenu.swf, which is placed throughout the site (aboutus.aspx, portfolio.aspx, etc...) needs to target frame 500 of mainIntro.swf which is embedded in default.aspx.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Controlling Mc From Another Mc?

I'm in CS5 and have built a simple flash website (with A/S1-2) having a primary swf (content.swf) and other transparent swf (home.swf, contact.swf, etc.) that load in for each menu button. When another menu button is clicked, my A/S instructs to unload all mc's from level 1 and load in the next swf in that same level.My challenge. I need to have a button in "home.swf" go to, say, "contact.swf". How can this be done?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling One Swf With Another?

Sep 29, 2009

I have to control one swf file with anoter. The situation is as it follows: there are two swf files in my HTML page. One of them contains a movie clip, and the other - buttons, which must control the first one - for example play this movie clip, go to a frame in this movie clip and so on. Is this possible? Maybe there is a way to connect both swf files with AS and after that use the inner instance names.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Controlling MC Inside One MC From Within Another MC?

Aug 6, 2010

I have three buttons I have built as MC's. In each on the MC's timeline I have another MC's with instance name voted01_mc, votecd02_mc, and voted03_mc, respectively. And each of the MC Buttons have instance names Q01_btn, Q02_btn and Q03_btn.

I would like to find a way to control the "visibility" of a movie clip inside one movie clip from inside another MC. I am sure there is a way to do this such as:

Q02_btn.voted02_mc._visible = false;
Q03_btn.voted03_mc._visible = false;

if the MC I wanted to make invisible was on main timeline I would do something like:

root.voted02_mc._visible = false;
root.voted03_mc._visible = false;

SO this would be inside Button MC 01 making the MC inside 02 and 03 invisible.

Dynamically Controlling Many Instances At Once?

i am trying to control 30 instances of a movie clip dynamically. the instances are as follows

ship1

coming from php i would just set up an associative array like list array('speed'=>array(false,false,true,...),'weapon '=>array(true,false,....and so on I can not for the life of me figure out how to store this information and then use it as a variable name later.my end result should look something like this .. i just don't understand how to do this in as3 .. it seems unnecessarily convoluted.

Code:

foreach($upgrades['speed'] as $key => $val)
{
UpgradeScreen.'speed'.$key.visible = $val);
this would dynamically call

i know the above is incorrect.I want to create this so that it is completely dynamic and the instance names can be feed in dynamically as the array or whatever is being looped.

Also, I should note that this code is in a MC that is on the stage where the other MC is.
