ActionScript 2.0 :: Create MC From Class And Add It To Stage?

Oct 20, 2009

I have a class that I want to be able to create a movieclip from and then add it to the stage when it's instantiated. The constructor takes two arguments but nothing special.I had one solution that added the movie clip, but then I couldn't modify the _x and _y values of it directly from the .fla. What would be the best way to do this? Should my class extend MovieClip or no?the formatting is something like:

Code:
class Foo extends MovieClip{
private var _mc:MovieClip;

Flash :: Create A Separate Class Then Create An Object Of That Class Within The Main Class?

May 17, 2011

I'm new to Flash AS3. I started making a game and I am a bit confused. Let's assume that I want to create a game that has multiple levels/modes, how can I do this in an object orientated way?

When i create games in other languages e.g. XNA C#, i create a separate class then create an object of that class within the main class and run the game based on a simple statement.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Class Can Add The Rectangle To The Root Stage Without Requireing The Instantiated Class To Be Added To The Stage?

May 3, 2010

I have a class called shapeC that only creates a rectangle and then addChild(rectangle);.  That class is instantiated on the main timeline.  Currently, the only way you can see that rectangle is to add the instantiated class to the stage via addChild(shapeC);.  My question is, is there a way that the shapeC class can add the rectangle to the root stage without requireing the instantiated class to be added to the stage?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A Custom Class (Testing) That Would Create A Box When An Instance Of The Class Is Created

Aug 29, 2007

I've been playing around with custom classes. My objective was to create a custom class (Testing) that would create a box when an instance of the class is created. I've tried three different approaches, however only (3) seems to be showing up. I'm just curious why (1) or (2) doesn't work?

Also is there a better approach than (3)? Since at the moment it's been created on _root. I hope the box can only be accessible through the instance. Since I'd like to incorporate the whole idea of public, private, encapsulation, etc.

IDE :: Acesssing Derived Class Children (stage Instances) From Base Class?

Jul 16, 2009

I'm slightly new to Flash CS3 + AS3 combo, so its more of a lack of practice question. My question stems from the problem described here http:[url].... . Note, its not the same problem, its a new one.The Problem ,So I have multiple library assets (which are on teh stage) and I want to assign similar functionality to all of them.

Attempt 1: So I create the n assets, create a custom class in AS3, link them to Flash CS3 and obviously enough it gives me the error that multiple assets can't be linked to the same class.Obvious enough to understand (well not completely, because from a programmers background it doesn't make sense).

Attempt 2: Same as attempt 1, but instead of linking all the assets to the same class I make the base class the same class, and let the derived class be dynamically created by Flash on compile time.So the linking works, but the problem is, in my base class I have a method which does something (say an tween) on a child of the library asset. So if the assets on the stage/library are called asset1, asset2, asset3 (same name for asset name, class name, id name), each of them has a sub-movieclip called ... say 'foo'. now if I manually wrote a class for each asset, I could do 'this.foo' to play with the sub-movieclip. However since this functionality is in the parent class, I'm unable to do it.

P.S. If you're form a programming/OOP background, its basically a abstract class problem. My Base class knows how to doSomething(), but it needs aSomething, which is defined in the Derived classes. However I found out that AS3 classes don't support virtual(C++ )/abstract (Java) in the true sense of the word (unless I missed some obvious documentation).

Actionscript 3 :: Access A Displayobject On Stage In A Class That Is Not A Document Class?

Mar 7, 2012

How to access a display object on the stage in a class which is not a document class?

I am looking for a solution that doesn't involve passing the stage as a parameter to the class.

One solution i always come across is using "TopLevel.as". Is it a good method because as far as I have heard using global variables is not recommended because it might cause some problems while working on big projects.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access The Stage Property From A Different Class That's Not The Principal Class?

Jul 2, 2009

I was wondering how do you access the stage property from a different class that's not the principal class tied to the fla? Essentially, I have main.as which calls another class menu.as, and I can't seem to be able to use the stage.stageWidth property from menu.as. What's the proper way to be able to use the stage property from any class? Do I have to import it separately each time?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing An Object Drawn On The Stage In One Class From Another Class

Jan 6, 2011

I have created a class, call it Class1, that has various objects drawn on the stage (drawn in the IDE). It also has a function, called setColour, for changing the colour of those objects. The function works fine if I call it from within Class1.

Now I have another class, call it testClass1, that imports Class1 and calls the setColour function. First of all, none of the stage objects from Class1 are visible. Secondly, when setColour tries to modify the colour of an object, I get the error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

This is the code for testClass1:

ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.*;

[Code].....

So, what is the problem? Is it possible to change objects that are drawn on the stage of an imported class?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Create Class Inside A Class?

Apr 19, 2010

This is what i'm trying to do :

I have 1 class that extends movieclip, let's call it Class0. I have 1 class that extends movieclip, let's call it Class1.

I create an instance of Class0 on stage like : var myClip0:Class0 = new Class0(this, "Class1");

The class Class0 when initializing, will create a new movieclip (myClip1) and add it as child, as an instance of Class1, like myClip0.myClip1. But it's when i create that clip, i want to tell it, it's an instance of Class1, like :

private var myClip1:Class1 = new Class1(this);

Where Class1 could be any class.

How do i pass Class1 to Class0 so it can create it dynamically?? Do i have to use the apply function??

inside Class0, i have a function that does :

Code:
if(subClass){
initSubclass(subClass);
}

Question 1 - Is Flash creating AS code that records these actions (create an instance, set properties, etc.)?

Question 2 - If Flash is creating AS code, is there any way we can see that code?
