Let's say I have a movie clip of a square in my library and I want to use a for loop to create a 10x10 grid of those squares. How do I approach that?
Spacing each square horizontally or vertically isn't a problem for me but I'm hung up on how to add 10 squares and then start a new line.
I need to create a simple multiplication grid where children will fill the grid. Its an empty grid at the begining, when they start the time start as well.Its a grid of 10 x 10. when they enter the last number, the grid should show what they did wrong and the time they spend. It's an idea of how it could work but if anyone has something that looks like this.
View 6 RepliesI am trying to use for loop to load small grey box to display in the image below.
But i couldn't figure out how to put in the if else condition when the col hits 7 and bring it to the next row.
Below is my if else code:
container1 = new Array();
container1 = this.firstChild.childNodes; //drawing info from xml file
spacing = 13;

I am dynamically adding a set of grid lines to a movieclip using a for loop. And I was wondering how I go about removing all of them so that I can add another set of grid lines to the same movieclip.This may sound weird but what I am doing is dynamically creating a table from an array and I wanted to dynamically add gridlines in between the table entries depending on how many entries there are in the array. I got this to work fine but when you go from one table with more entries to a table with less then the grid lines from the longer table are still there.Hence I want to be able to remove all the grid line instances before creating the next table.
View 6 RepliesI have the following code with which I am creating a grid.what I need to do is, either create the grid in a random order at the beginning, or 'shuffle' the grid once it has been created.. meaning each time I load the page the order is changed..
for (var i:uint = 0; i< boxNum; i++) { var animatedButton = new AnimatedButton(); animatedButton.x = animatedButton.width * (i % cols); animatedButton.y = animatedButton.height * int(i / cols); grid.addChild(animatedButton).name = "m" + (i + 1);
}
I am building a grid of buttons dynamically in a for loop from XML. I am then assigning them button.label and button.name from the array. The grid appears, the buttons have the right label, the event.target.name method produces the name on the button in a trace. Now how do I attach that to a function dynamically? I need the name of the button to call the next step.

I've been staring at the screen too long and I'm sure the answer is simple but this has been bugging me for a bit now. I've created a grid with over 200 movie clips dynamically using a for loop. I was wondering if there was a way to assign rollovers and such to each new clip using the same loop.
I've been poking around with it a bit but can't seem to get it working and sure don't want to write over 200 rollover functions so any help would be great.
I am new to AS3, I am creating a gallery and stuck on a place. [URL]. Requirements:
1.) Need a nice loop for loading all thumbs, most important it should be physically separated, should not be looped via code.
2.) When I click on 1st button I must load first 4 thumbnails (which is already loaded), and with 2nd button it must load next 4 thumbnails from xml file, similarly with 3rd.
I would like to create a loop so the icons in the menu continually loop indefinitly.[code]
View 2 RepliesI am attempting to use a loop to create text field with the loop's current value. The code looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i = 1; i<=10; i++) {
var 'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt':TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.x = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.y = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.text = "Hello World"
}
So essentially what it should do is create 10 text fields at 40, 40 with the text: "Hello World".
I'm creating a grid and I can place everything in nice columns but how to create a new row.

var rowHeight:Number = Stage.height/6;

I've set up a simple enter frame loop to adjust the alpha on a grid of movie clips ("bubbles") using a distance formula from the mouse pointer.I've got a hunch that while this works fine, there's a more efficient or processor friendly way to do it.

I am relatively new to flash. I am trying to create a square grid and add it to the movie.When I open the actionscript panel by pressing F9 and when I type the following code, var square:SquareClip = new SquareClip();addChild(square);
Things are working fine (the squareclip is appearing in the movie). Instead when I do this however, I deleted the above code and just create a new instance of Main,
[Code]...
This is my current code:
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("noteGrid", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
for(i = 1; i <= 14; i++){
currentBlock = _root.noteGrid.attachMovie("block", "block" + i, _root.noteGrid.getNextHighestDepth);
currentBlock._x = Math.floor(i / 7) * 25;
currentBlock._y = (i % 7) * 25;
}
I have a movieclip with linkage set to block. When I compile this, the block appears however they are all on top of each other. When I used trace commands to find currentBlock._x, they are the correct values.
I'm having problems creating a grid that will change individual movieclips' frame when rolled over when the mouse is down. My script seems to be acting erratically, when I push buttons, all of the mcs change even though the code to change them is onRollOver.[code]....

I picked up this code trawling the forums but this creates a diamond shaped pattern of hexes rather than neat rows that interlock together. I want to create one row in the first place, increment the x and y placing coords so as the next row is offset as appropriate to lock it into place under row above. Can't get my head round it.

View 1 RepliesI want to create a grid of movieclips using an array. But every movieclip added needs some sort of unique idenifier so i can access each individual movieclip.
The grid is 6 movieclips on the Y and variable on the X(that doesnt really matter to be honest)
I have managed to create an Array that displays 6 movieclips on the Y using this [code]...
now i tried creating another class and storing the 6 tickets i made in this class in another movieclip and then using the same method in the other class (i called it Ticket_Batch) i created another row of 6 movieclips. although this kind of worked visually i could no longer access each individual ticket.
my question is: how do i create a 6 x 36(or any other multiple of 6) grid of my movieclips in the same class using an array (or 2 arrays) and giving each movieclip an instance name that i can access and use?

View 1 RepliesI'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.
