If I wanted to to cycle through an array that looked like this:Array("Red", "Blue", "orange", "green", "Silver", "Black", "Yellow", "Peach")how would my code look if I wanted to only display three at a time. what would the code look like for a next and a previous button to see the next three and the previous three?

I am trying to create a game that has a sound player.I have created an array of 6 sounds each sound lasting 20 seconds.I can click on the next sound button to cycle through 6 sounds.The idea is that the player must guess what the sound is before the sound completes playing.Once the sound is complete a graphic appear telling the player what the sound is.The player would then click the next sound button, this would cause the current graphic to disappear,when the next sound completes a second graphic will appear.At the moment the sound side of the game is complete.I have create an array similar to the sounds array containing each of the 6 graphics.The code I have allows the first graphic to appear when the first sound completes,and when the next sound button is pressed that graphic disappears. how to display the next 5 graphics as each of the next sounds complete.I have cycled through each of the sounds in the sounds array,I have given each of the graphics a name in the linkage box, although I can only get that first graphic to appear and disappear when it has been dragged into the stage and given the instance name "image1"![code]
View 0 RepliesI obviously don't understand arrays very well. I want to cycle through the content of an array by the push of a button. The dynamic text field registers the variable "aar", because when I preview this it displays "item1". When I then hit the button, the variable "i" is increased by 1, the dynamic field with the variable "i" shows this, but the dynamic field with the variable "aar" is not updated to the next array-item. This code is in the first frame, with no stop(); code in the file at all.. Why doesnt this code work?
Code:
aar = new Array();
aar[0]="item1"
aar[1]="item2"
aar[2]="item3"

Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:

View 1 RepliesI have a function, loadXML, that loads an xml file with a list of locations to OTHER xml files. Within this function I load each individual xml file and run a new function, parseXML, to pass each of the variables I desire from the individual xml files into an array.
This all works fine and dandy on my computer, but when I run it online it breaks down.
What I believe is going on is that the initial xml file loads fine, but because the referenced xml files are on the web and are varying sizes, they stop loading sequentially and the data no longer corresponds to the xml file referenced in referenceListA array. (ie. all the data from each referenced file, item1, item2, and item3 will stay together because they are called at the same time, but will become mixed up from the referenced xml file).
This normally would not be a big deal, but because I want to also create a link BACK to the referenced xml file, sometimes the link will not lead back to right location (it will lead back to another xml file in the list).
I was thinking about adding a time delay somehow in the loadXML function to give time to load the newxml file, but that would still be problematic...
How can I make sure that the referenceListA[i] mathes up to its own information?

How can I pop or shift more than one element of an array in the same time? I have been searching, and I can't find the answer anywhere. My new project is to pop or shift 3 element of an array of let's say of 100 elements, and with a click of a button display them into a textfield having in mind the date factor. If today I click the button, it'll give me the same numbers, all the day; but when tomorow i'll click the button, it will give me another set of numbers all the day long, and so on. Do I make sense and continue, or I just forget about it ? I have the button, the array, how to acces the date, and flash CS 5.5. All I need I believe, is How to pop or to shift more than one element.

What would be the best way to create an array that can have an index and a key at the same time? I mean something like this
index | key | value
0 | "myItem" | "Some value"
1 | "anotherItem" | "Some other value"
2 | "blabla" | "Bla Bla"
I know I can create a normal Array/Vector and then use an Object/Dictionary to map the keys to the index in the current array. But if the array changes then the Dictionary needs to change all the indexes that would have been affected because an item has been removed for example.
I can go ahead and create a class that tries to synchronize the map with the array etc...
But i dont think it is the best way of doing it at all...
I wanna use it to have a list... that holds queued items for example. You should be able to get a particular item by its key :
item = list["myItem"]
But you should also be able to find out the index of an item, they have to be ordered and it should be possible to loop through it as a normal array. What would be the best way to do something like this in as3?
How can i add one item of an array to the stage at a time?

I have made a movie file symbol with multiple key-frames, such as a person walking, but when I drag this symbol from the library into the stage and preview it, all I see is the first frame of the symbol--it never changes to the next frames.

Does anyone know if it is possible to modify the code so that it automatically cycles through all the images in, say, 10 second intervals? So rather than keep clicking the next button, it just cycles through. And when it gets to the last image, it then cycles back through the first one.[code]...
I am making a portfolio for my website and here is the beginning of my script.
stop();
//setting up the list of frame names for the buttons
imagelist = ["horror","legs","chair"];
//'next' button setup
next_b.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay (imagelist[0]);
}
Now I want the button to cycle through the arrays so that everytime you hit the button it goes to the next frame instance that I've named. In this case imagelist[0] is horror so next time you hit button I want it to goto imagelist[1] or 'legs.' Also I need to set a stop action for this (I am guessing loop) so that it stops at the array length.

View 7 RepliesWhat I want to do: I have an object on the stage that moves in a circular manner. I want it to move in a less predictable way by assigning some randomness to its movement.
What I can't do: Imagine a clock. Its hand moves at a constant pace. When the hand's initial position is 12 o'clock I would like it to move as long as its hand meets the hour 12 again and communicate it. The full cycle. Then, I want to change the object's x,y and make it keep moving. And so on. How do I tell Flash that my objects has made a full cycle?
