View 1 RepliesI need to count the number of lines that exists in a txt file, from which I load some content. I think I need to escape the content of the txt to be able to read the "/n", to count them and to have them displayed as variable (for example t_linenumber=...?)

View 1 RepliesI have a project I am trying to put together that includes closed captioning with a scrollbar (standard flash component). In my navigation file I have a text box with a dynamic text box with _level10.ccText as the Var
I have a series of pages that get called into a level below the navigation file. On each of them I have code in an actions frame _level10.ccText = "text text text text";
The text displays fine in the text box but when I scroll down the scrollbar scrolls down too far. The text gets to the end and the scrollbar is only about halfway down the bar. If I keep pushing the down button or drag the slider it will go all the way down but my text doesn't move. Its almost like there are extra lines somewhere that it is trying to scroll to.
Is there a way to change the colour of a Dynamic Text Box so that it can have multi-color lines?
E.g.:

View 1 RepliesI created a timer with found tutorials and the Flash help files and everything works fine. My timer counts up from 000.000,0 to 999.000,0. Now I would like to also be able to do the same, but counting down from 999.000,0 to 000.000,0
Easy enough I thought, but now . how to make some modifications in my code to count down.
My code for counting up is the follow:
Code: Select allvar hours:Number = 0;
var seconds:Number = 0;
var minutes:Number = 0;
var pauseTime:Number = 0;

drawing a straight line, just like on the flash game Line rider. I need to be able to create a line by dragging it with the mouse.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a mindmap where the user can drag points about the screen, and the lines connected them to them follow. I have gotten as far as drawing the line via actionscript, and drag+drop the points (defined as movie clips on stage). This is the existing script - I don't know how to get the lines to follow the points. Something to do with ENTER_FRAME or updateAfterEvent? I have seen examples using onEnterFrame and createEmptyMovieClip and one with setInterval, but they are in previous Actionscripts. I don't know how to translate them into AS3.
var line:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
line.graphics.lineStyle(1,1);
line.graphics.moveTo(ptOne.x,ptOne.y);
line.graphics.lineTo(ptTwo.x,ptTwo.y);

I can easily make a dynamic image with one or two lines of symmetry.
My normal approach is to take a square image and mirror it once too make one line of symmetry like this:
and then to make two lines of symmetry I can just mirror that image with one line of symmetry as well, making something like this:
images with 2 lines of symmetry work really well for 2D tessellations, but for 3D tessellations I need 4 lines of symmetry.
this is a problem since the way you'd normally do this is to basically fold the square in half both ways diagonally, which gives you triangles instead of rectangles.
this makes it harder to use rotation matrices to mirror the source image.
has anyone come up with a good way to give a source image that you can loop through every pixel quickly and mirror it in such a way that it has 4 lines of symmetry?
i have this completed so far, but i need the texture map to have 4 lines of symmetry, not 2 like it currently does.

Im using the code bellow to draw a line:
Code:
createEmptyMovieClip("line",1);
line.lineStyle(2,0xFFFFFF,100);
line.moveTo(0,0);
line.lineTo(100,100);
How can I make the line to tween, from alpha 0 to 100 using AS2? I Tried TweenMax on "line" movieclip but it does not work.
I've been trying to detect the number of lines used in a dynamic textfield without any luck. I have tried using the scroll property of a field which didn't work (Find my attempt attached)

My code is on the main timeline.I call a function loop to draw lines between them.The lines are drawing between the right x, y values BUT between those values on the main stage, not those values within the kite.For example, dot1_mc is at x100, y0 inside kite. the line that should go from its center, draws from stage x100, 0.How do I draw the lines inside kite so that they draw between the dots?Heres my code that draws the linesPHP Code:
function loop():void{ lineDrawing.graphics.clear(); var a:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot1_mc.x, kite_mc.dot1_mc.y); var b:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot2_mc.x, kite_mc.dot2_mc.y); var c:Point = new
