ActionScript 2.0 :: Create An Array With Fields?
Nov 6, 2010
I saw an adobe KB how to create an array with fields. I am having trouble replicating this.
I have the below array structure. I have traced the value of tempName , tempNum - they produce the correct results. But when i trace the array sortValues i get Quote:
object Object
as the value. i wanted it to show the same as tempName and num.
Code:
sortValues = new Array();
var tempName:String;
var tempNum:Number;
[Code].....

I've got a nice bit of code that allows me to dynamically add a dynamic text box to the stage, add text to it and control it's position and formatting:
var txt:TextField = new TextField();txt.text= "feisty";txt.x=50;txt.y=50;var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();format.color = 0x2F55EA;format.font = "Arial";format.size = 18;txt.setTextFormat(format);stage.addChild(txt);
This just makes the word "feisty" appear on the movie.The problem is that I want to create many words with different positions,different starting times, make them go away and then have different words appear. It would look like this:[URL]The swf at the link was created with After Effects and the file size is 1.5 MB - too big for a web banner. I was told I could recreate the whole thing dynamically with actionscript and get file size way down. I've been working through various tutorials with little luck.
I have a list of 100 words, how do I turn the code above into a cloud of words that appear one or two at a time? I assume I will put the words into an array, but then how do I get the code above to cycle through the array and pick up the position and format attributes?

I have an array. The fields in the array have underscores that I would like to remove e.g. "Column_1" to "Column 1". Does anyone know a good way to do this without looping through the whole array and rebuilding it anew? I didn't see any methods in the reference that would make this easy.

The code is coming up with [Text Object] instead of what the text actually is (and if I actually add .text it calls up absolutely nothing). This functions perfectly well when using the standard array without the sub-properties and {} brackets (so I think the problem might be somewhere in the push statements). I am not understanding what the error is (probably something blatantly simple, my only guess being some sort of conversion problem).

Doing something wrong with this:
I have four arrays holding data:
id_array:Array;
last_name_array:Array;
first_name_array:Array;
condition_array:Array;
I have a for loop with counter set to the number of items in the arrays, with the idea of inserting data from each array into the fields of the following DiffArray. I am getting Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference and I cant see why.

I have an array that gets filled with values from a database and I want to sort things in Flash using the sortOn() function. I'm trying to create an array with a number of fields, like this example from the Help-files:
Code:
var my_array:Array = new Array();
my_array.push({password: "Bob", age:29});[code]....
I need a bit more fields and if I put all of these in one line, it gets kinda lengthy.I tried something like
Code:
var my_array:Array = new Array();
for (i=0; i<10; i++) {
my_array.push ( {prop1: "value_1_"+i} );[code]....
but this apparently doesn't work. Is there another way of doing this?

I'm new to actionscript but have some basic programming skills. I've downloaded some code that finds and displays fields from an attribute table of a feature, from my limited knowledge it seems to be adding this data into an array collection, the problem is I need the data fields to be displayed in alphabetical order, or in the order they are originally stored. I tried to use the sort function to order the array but can't get it to work.
The source code is below:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import com.esri.ags.events.DrawEvent;
import com.esri.ags.events.IdentifyEvent;
import com.esri.ags.geometry.Extent;
import com.esri.ags.geometry.Geometry;

I have five individual movie clips that dynamically load names from five variables in a txt file (these all fade in and out and overlap the transition of the next). Every time the movie loops, I'd like the movie clips to display the next item in the list until every name has been listed - is this doable? Is there a better way to do this from within flash instead of loading the content dynamically?

With the following lines of code I manage to create the 2 fields but i cannot figure out how set a space between the 2 fields without specifying the _y value.[code]...
I am looking for an alternative way to set a space between the 2 fields instead of specifying the _y value which is shown in bold!

I'm making a sudoko solver, and i have 81 input fields. They're named from i11 to i99. The first number is the column number "x", the second number is the row number "y". I want to transfer those numbers out of the input fields, and into an array.

is something wrong with the way I am naming the grid array? After tracing just about everything, that must be the problem.

I'd like to gather (at run-time) all dynamic text fields on the stage and push them into an array. Then I can load an xml of data and populate each dynamic text field in the array with a matching value in the xml file.
So basically I'm writing one class file I'd like to be used on many different swf files, each of which can have one or 20+ dynamic text fields. I'd like the swf to loop through each text dynamic field, throw each into an array and then grab an xml item with a matching name as that text field and set its textfield.text value from it. So actually if the dynamic text fields are just in a for loop then I guess I wouldn't even need to place them in an array, just not sure how to identify the dynamic text fields on the stage.

I have combed through the forums and read every font embedding article I could find and still I don't understand what's going on. I have created a simple test case that I have attached to this post. Hopefully someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.Here's the situation ...ultimately, my goal is to be able to dynamically create text fields with embedded fonts (I'm using Arial or Arial Unicode) that can display a variety of languages (English and Russian are the primary ones I'm working on right now). In the attached sample, I have added a font to the library and set it to use Arial Unicode.I have 3 text fields on the stage: Field 1 is generated entirely from code using createTextField, Field 2 is a design-time text field that uses the embedded library font, and Field 3 is a design-time text field that uses basic Arial rather than Arial Unicode.For the 2 design-time fields I have embedded the glyphs necessary to display English and Russian as well as some others.I also have a few buttons on the stage to create the 3rd text field (using createtextfield), send english or russian text to all 3 fields, and turn embedding on/off of the generated text field.
Here are the results I've found:With embedding OFF:English shows up fine in all 3 text fields (in the generated one, it uses the system default font instead).Russian shows up in the generated field and in the 3rd field (basic Arial) but NOT in the field that uses the embedded library font.With embedding ON:NOTHING shows up in the generated text field the 2 design time fields function the same as they did before.I REALLY don't understand why the design-time text field doesn't work when it uses the library version of the font. Why should that matter? I also don't get why even ENGLISH doesn't work in the generated field when embedding is on.
//EDIT: I just tried using Arial as the font for the generated text field rather than using the linkage name for the library font and now the embedding works. So I guess my main question is why it doesn't work using the library font....I thought that using the library font .

I have created a form based on this tutorial by senocular: [URL]..The ide is to create input text fields on a site where a viewer can write his/her name and email address and then press "send". When the send button is pressed an email will be sent to my own email account.
My problem is that the email is supposed to contain only a name and an email address which the user wrote in the form.

I'm guessing it is because I use CSS to set the format on the input text fields. How can I solve this problem?

I have a Flash site I am developing that feeds in XML into various arrays and populates dynamic movie clips and text fields. I am having trouble making a for loop that works with my movieclips and text fields. I am probably only missing one step and if I can figure it out I will cut my lines of code about 10X. I have attached the fla and image files in a zip file.

I have been scripting this flash profile card which pulls data from multiple XML files. The problem i am having is when it comes down to pulling this 1 set of information which is accessing the attributes of an array of specific XML nodes on display after the first item it inputs a comma before each item.
My code:
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---
xmlData = new XML ();xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;xmlData.load ("../xml profiles/test.xml");
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
function loadXML (loaded){if (loaded){ xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code].....
This is just a draft version of the layout i used to pull up fake data... to show the commas.Lastly i am wondering if it is possible to control the 3 text fields using 1 scroll bar or would i be better off learning how to create columns in 1 text field to display these lists.

Is it possible to, if you have an array of class names like ActionScript Code: var city01names:Array = ["pic_01", "pic_02", "pic_03" ...] make a new array which would read these names, instantiate them, and push them into a new array containing the instances of all these pictures, which I could then use for a slideshow?

Alright so lets say I have a number of movieclips or text fields or something with instance names test1, test2, test3 and so forth. Now say I want to fill these text fields with text that I have in an array and I want to do this with a loop, how do I do this? What I'm really asking is if there is a way to use a variable in an instance name if you catch my drift.

I have an array that I want to check with a "setInterval"-triggered function.Is there a way to do something like an "IF"-check on all entries / fields of an array? The array contains the feedback from another function, so each field can only be "true" or "false".
What I want is something like this:
IF (all values from array X == true) {
// [stuff]
}
Only way I can think of is to set a dummy variable to "true", do a for-loop through the array and check for "false" and if any of the entries is "false", the dummy will be set to "false", too- otherwise it will remain "true"...

I want to dynamically create multiple text fields that fade out and "die". I have been looking over the "sprite" programming but there seems to be nothing that works in CS4. Have I bitten off more than I can chew with this one?THe basic concept is this:I want the function to do the following. Step 1: Create a new dynamic text field.Step 2: Tween it to fade out (or whatever).Step 3: Kill the text field.Key item is that the function should be able to create multiple text fields and each text field may be
