I have a counting movie which displays numbers from 1 to 1000 (action scripts) in a dynamic text box. First 1 and then 2 and so on. It works very well. I convert this movie to a movie clip and drag this new movie clip to the main stage on frame 1, but anything happens now.

View 3 RepliesI am currently taking a value from another source and splitting it into Thousands / Hundreds / Tens / Ones to drive MC's containing images of numbers. Originally I was using this external value to drive a dynamic text box and that was absolutely fine. When the external value went below zero the dynamic text box reflected this and started counting downwards ie 0 -1, -2, -3 ......-100 etc etc. However with the system I am now trying to implement when the external value goes below zero my counters show 9999 and count down towards zero.
For example the actual value of the external value = -32 but my counter system is showing 968. Always the sum of the actual value and my counter value = 1000. So again maybe actual value is -160 but my counter shows 840.Below is the section of the script splitting the external value (roundelevation) into 1000/100/10/1's
Code:
roundelevation = Math.round(scaledelevationMils);
EliThous = Math.floor(roundelevation / 1000);
EliHund = Math.floor(roundelevation / 100) - 10 * EliThous;
EliTen = Math.floor(roundelevation / 10) - 100 * EliThous - 10 * EliHund;
EliOne = Math.floor(roundelevation) - 1000 * EliThous - 100 * EliHund - 10 * EliTen;
I am using these variables (EliThous / Elihund) etc to move to different frames of mc's inside the Mc's each frame is an image of a number.It works absolutely perfectly when the external value is above zero and my counter is counting upwards / downwards. However as soon as it begins having to deal with the external value being a negative number it begins counting down from 9999 instead of beginning at -0001 and counting -0002.how to make this work when dealing with a negative input value and I really don't want to have to go back to using the font and dynamic text box approach.

View 4 Replieshow to add numbers to a dynamic text box but wat i really wannt know is how to make it do something if it hits a certain number..

I wrote a flash game a while back (CS3) and it used to work but when trying to compile the same FLA file in CS5 does not work.
I've got a dynamic text field called tScore
tScore.text = Score;
Used to apply the current integer value of the user's score to the text box. It no longer does that. (It appear empty)
By way of simple debugging:
tScore.text = Score.toString; // no value shown
tScore.text = String(Score); // no value shown
tScore.text = "A"; // sets the field to the value A
[Code]....
I know it's been a long time for weird stuff to happen in flash
Has anyone experienced a text field that doesn't accept digits?
Im trying to display 16 random numbers in the dynamic text field, but Im only one number is being displayed.
ActionScript Code:
for(var i:uint = 0; i < 16; i++){
var randomNumber:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9);
trace(randomNumber);
}
output_txt.text = String(randomNumber);
I want to use a dynamic text field to display the numbers, but have a few buttons that go with them.I want to be able to press the button, and a set time is generated in the dynamic txt field, i.e. 10 minutes, 15 minutes & 30 minutes. the user will press 30 minutes, then start, then the countdown will commence, and same for the other time increments.
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip with a starting number of 3.75 and I was this number to increase to 6.00 and then stop. I know this should be pretty simple to do with a little actionscript.
View 3 RepliesI have created a dynamic text box (named "numberString") inside a movieclip "circle" which is on the stage. Anyways, I have 24 frames in movieclip "circle", with numbers from 1-24 on different frames. These numbers are in "numberString".Since the animation allows the numbers to continually play over and over again, and thus the numbers are always changing, I was wondering: how can I 'read' the number that is playing when I, say, roll over it? I know the script for the roll over, but I can't figure out an efficient way to find out what number is playing when I put my mouse over it.
View 6 Repliesim trying to do a simple calculation and display it in a dynamic text box however when I use small numbers the dynamic text box displays NaN.
PHP Code:
lambdas = rk / lp;
lambdas.toString();
test_txt.text = String(lambdas);
lambdas is is the variable i am trying to display in the dynamic text box (instance name is test_txt). rk and lp are input text numbers. I am trying to use rk = 0.05 and lp = 0.2. 0.25 should be displayed in the box
I have a .fla file with a movieclip that has a dynamic text box in it. In my .as class file I'm setting the dynamic text's text with _clip.Score.text = "Points: " + _score.toString(). This seems like it would work but for some reason the following results happen:[code]
View 1 RepliesI am an animator who does a little actionscript from time to time (enough to get me in trouble) but am at a newbie lite experience stage. I have flash 8 (actionscript 2). I have formulated a calculator for my boss (not in animation, unfortunately) that has some very simple flash maths. I have previously loaded text into a swf from an external text file into a dynamic text box � easy enough. But in my simple calculator I�d like to add a pricing schedule which I can edit externally (without Flash, simply edit the text file) to change the prices on some stuff. Can this be done? Every time I try using the loadVariablesNum or LoadVars approach my calculations come up with a NaN error. I suspect you can�t load characters that are recognised as numbers from an external text file. Can I do it with XML (I have some very basic understanding) or do I need to use php and mySQL?

View 3 RepliesI have a movie where a variable named daysleft will be loaded from an external text file into a dynamic text box, this bit works fine.

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 5 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;

How to add numbers to a dynamic text field. I have a dynamic text box on the stage called riglevel. On the same frame I set riglevel.text=1, but when I try to test the movie the text field is blank. I can get it to work with words, like riglevel.text="testing" works fine, but for some reason I can't figure out how to get this to work with numbers.
View 3 RepliesI using Flash CS5 for the first time, and I'm hitting a snag. I have an input box on Scene 1 for age (variable called old). On scene 3, I have a dynamic test box (variable called display), where I want to display the age (old) + 10.
My Code looks like this:
PHP Code:
var Real_age = Number(old) + 10;
display = Real_age;
It's returning NaN.
A trace of the output of Real_age gives:
PHP Code:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT">
<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#009900" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">2</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
<p align="left"></p>
<p align="left"></p>
NaN
<p align="left"></p>
<p align="left"></p>
The code works OK in Flash 8, but I figure I must have some some setting that is spitting out the unwanted HTML.

I'm having a bit of trouble with a script to check a 'dynamic number'...
Basically, I've got a movie which plays in a loop and each time it goes around, it clicks up a number, which I have on the stage as 'dynamic text' called "ImageNumber" - this bit is working fine it uses the following code to add[code]...
let's say you had a dynamic text field with a number (for example '30'). Everytime you click on a certain button / movie clip, that triggers an animation (so far no problem) AND adds '20' to the number in that textfield.
==> first click, the number displays 50 (30+20), second click 70 (50+20) ...
When you enter a certain keyframe and that number is higher than let's say 290, the movie jumps to frame x. If that number equals 290 or is lower than 290, the movie jumps to frame y.
I am new to this forum.. and trying to learn as3.. jus started off with learning as3 pdf(from adobe).. and tried to build one simple program to add two numbers and get the result in a dynamic textfield..
