I was looking threw your tutorials and I found >>this one<< I've modified a little it and now I have this:
Code:
function init() {
for (var i:Number = 0; i<4; i++) {
this.attachMovie("blueCircle", "blue"+i, this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mc:MovieClip = this["blue"+i];
[code]....
It works ok, but I want to do a game from it-polimorphic graphs (I'm not sure if I wrote it correctly)[URL]I want to do something like that in flash.how to check for lines collisions (if one line is on other)
I am working on a tool that will allow a user to drag and drop symbols of files onto the stage, draw lines between these files, and then if needed drag the files to relocate them on the stage. How can I make the lines stay connected while the file is dragged?
I have a set of dots displayed on the canvas (key bits of code pulled out):
// Drop points based on x y coords for (var i = 0; i < 50; i++) { itemPoint[i] = new mcDot();[code]....
how to redraw the lines as I move a dot. Also there could be many lines connected to any single dot. Do I need to somehow register which lines are connected to which dot? How do I redrew the lines based on this?
I am getting questions from the database (just text) and then passing them to flash via flash vars.I want one question to be displayed then the user will answer (text) and click a button and then the next question will be displayed for them to answer and so on.I am not hoping for overly specific advice but as I am very new to flash/actionscript am just looking for broad advice (or links ?) on how to approach this. Can I do it all from one frame just using actionscript?I think what I am really after (assuming I am not way off track) is if all the questions should be handled at once which I guess will require some kind of loop that listens for some buttonclick event to move to the next question ..... or be 'reloading' the flash movie and dealing with only 1 question at a time.
I'm trying to learn how to use xml, and I really like this tutorial http:[url]..My question is how would I write my action script to allow the text (First Name, Last Name, GPA) to open up a link? I wrote this into the xml file & I don't know if it is right. Original Code:
Code: <student first="James" last="Johnson" gpa="3.3" </> My Code:[code]....
I've been doing the course on the flv player and found a tutorial somewhere here about attaching mc and thumbnails with a scrollbar. Now, I can't seem to fine it.Is there creating extended elements to the online tutorial like, adding thumbnails and a scrollbar for the thumbs?
I'm a bit of a newbie to this so I decided to follow this URL...The problem is that the dragons don't stop so I tried adding a time limit like this:[code]Frame 6 is my game over screen and the removeMovieClip works for the knight and the arrows but not for the dragons. They still carry on.
I've found several good tutorials in AS2.0 on creating a scrolling thumbnail menu bar for adding to a photo gallery, but nothing in AS3.0. Anyone have a tutorial or code they'd like to share?
Could you please lead me to some tutorials on similiar feature that is displayed on this website.URL...a big bilboard type of thing,which shows a large image coming in from the right...but also smaller images on the right hand side that are moving up.
I know it's for sure a complex task, but does anybody out there know a package or a set of algorithms to extract shapes out of set of overlapping lines? I am looking for something in as3 that would resemble adobe illustrator's pathfinder function (most specifically, intersection). SWF here: [URL]. I know it will need some crazy geometric calculation?
I've found great tutorial about creating XML menu. Originally in the background of button was dynamicaly created shape. AS was adding filter to the shape on MOUSE_OVER state. I created movie clip and wanted to use gotoAndPlay() action to go to one of frames in movie clip on MOUSE_OVER state and MOUSE_OUT. Here's the problem. I've tried few solutions but I failed :/ Always was something wrong, often nothing was working.
I have played around with it and made it "rollover" instead of "release".However, i don't really like the random colors selected.Can i choose a certain color series (yellow for instance; light yellow, dark yellow).Or make it turn into a specific number of colors on the same square; it can randomly select from a series of colors i have listed?
I sent an email to pom regarding a tutorial that he wrote, but the email was bounced and he hasn't replied to my PM. I have followed both of pom's tutorials that involve experiments with perspective in Flash, but I have encountered a problem while attempting to duplicate a movie clip symbol in the second tutorial ([URL]). I have a single instance of the "ball" movie clip symbol appearing at random positions. However, I cannot seem to successfully duplicate the symbol instance at random positions using the loop that pom provided:
I have built a catalog in flash that was orginally built in InDesign and exported but it has some small content that is hard to read for the elderly users viewing it and I would like to add a zoom feature or some type of magnifying glass.
original: I really just need to figure out how to center the pictures. here is what I did I have modified the tutorial that I finished to have a bigger stage for bigger pictures. Everything is working properly but the pictures are displayed on the left side, I want to have them centered in the stage for the images, after clicking on the thumbnails, plus my images are different sizes as well. ranging from 200x410 to 744x410 but all are the same height of 410. i will post up what I am talking about at the end. I believe it is something within either the action script or the xml coding that allows the position of the image to be differently? please help here is what i am talking about[URL] Continued: Here is my coding in action script:
I have been working on a map viewer based blitting technique. As part of the map I need to draw approximately 50000 lines and performance is currently really poor.
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
I need too create quiz app using xml for database for questions and xul or flax for interface, quiz should have 3 types of questions : single answer (radio), multianswer (checkbox) and open (textfield). I really don't know how to import questions from xml, to xul/flex Also i need to save the answers to txt/xml file The xml database is something like this
I'm really new at flash and I'm having some trouble with a textbook assignment. Before I explain my problem here is the code:
Code: stop(); var defValue:Number = 1; stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, vetIkke); function vetIkke(e:Event [Code] .....
I was doing some assignments in my as3 textbook when I ran into a bit of trouble. I'm trying to make a flash that picks 3 random questions out of a total of 10 and displays them on screen. I made each of the questions movieclips and assigned them all a class (question1 - 10) through Linkage. So the variable "randomQ" is the name of the class of a random question, but how do I get flash to understand that? And how do I spawn that question as a movieclip on stage?
Code: var Question:MovieClip = new randomQ(); I've tried various alterations but can't seem to find the right one. It's possible I've yet to learn the necessary knowledge in order to make this flash.
I'm making a sort of Quiz in Flash with AS3. I know its possible to import the questions + answers with Notepad, XML or even PHP. But I dont know where to start. Can somebody help me out? I allready searched for good tutorials that can help me out but I cant find something usefull.
I'm trying to create a simple quiz that picks questions from an XML file, then checks the answer the user enters against the answers stored in the same XML file. Every time you press blue_btn it should bring up a new question. Right now I'm stuck -- it shows only the last question in the XML file, when I enter the right answer it tells me it's wrong, and when I press blue_btn again nothing happens.
I wanted to randomise my quiz questions and to allow all questions to appear but no similar questions should appear twice. I tried to use arrays to do it but I kept having errors.
I have made a quiz which has 20 questions. 15 questions are asked at random. However, being at random some questions are repeated. How do I shuffle questions rather than use random?
I have a project that i want to make which is a Multiple choice game containing questions and the answers is four pictures when you click on the right answer you move to next question when your are wrong a wrong sign appears i have zero knowladge about flash but i thought this is similar to Geo Challenge in facebook ,,Right ?? what software to download ? any tutorials online ?
i instantiate a sprite-class "panel" from my main class. then i call a function "show chooser" inside "panel" which instatiates a sprite class "chooser" with some buttons. now when one of the buttons is pressed i need to call a function inside "panel" which removes the "chooser" sprite/class and which calls a function "onChosen" in the main class.
what is the correct/best way to reference these functions so that they can be called from within the panel and/or chooser classes. i am still too much in the old thinking that a function belongs to a movieclip and can functions with _parent. i need to learn the proper way now.
I have an application which pulls in data (questions) via XML and randomizes them. Right now if there is 50 questions in the XML file, 50 questions are displayed and randomized in the application. I am trying to figure out how to limit the randomizing pool so that only 35 questions display(even when the XML file has 50 questions) or something like that. My current code which brings in the file and randomizes is below.
Loads the XML data Code: package exam { import flash.net.* //to create URLRequest and load XML file import flash.events.* //for Load events //import flash.display.* //for testing purposes - remove when testing complete //This class downloads the XML document, and then inserts info into arrays and variables. [Code] .....
I was trying to produce an output of an array mixed up and limit the number. how that is done. Now need to incorporate into a quiz application which pulls in data via, XML, displays that, and shows the number of questions. So if 50 questions are in the XML file 50 questions will be displayed in the quiz. What I am trying to do is use the XML file as a question pool and randomly select say 30 questions out of the file to display. no luck so far, but I am making progress!
