ActionScript 2.0 :: Drag And Reposition MC's Over Multiple Pages?
Sep 13, 2011
This is hard to explain, so bear with me... I'm creating "pages" of draggable buttons so that I can reorder them according to their revised positions. Everything works great but I'm stumped as to how to drag the buttons forward or backward a page based on the current active page. If you look at the file you'll see exactly what I mean. I have a portion of the code commented out because that's the area I'm stuck on.
All the MC's are created on the initial load, with each additional page appearing "off the screen" by an adding 1000 pixels per page (in the X direction). Then I just reposition all the MC's as the pages are scrolled through.
What I really want to do is drag a button to the edge of the screen and have all the MC's move that represent the appropriate page. I think I need some sort of timer there or it just flies to the last page.
FYI, if you change the variable "TotalVBs" it will modify the number of displayed buttons. If you change the variable "myButtonScale" it will modify the scale of the buttons. Increasing either or both of these will add more pages to the program. [code]...

I'm Trying to develop a small game where the user chooses from a range of boxes of the left of screen and can drag 3 of them separatley to 3 holding boxes on ther right. each box can be dragged to any location and the order is not important. Once the 3 holding boxes are all full I want a new button to appear. I completed a tutorial and I've got one box working perfectly but no matter what i try I can't get it working with multiple boxes and locations. Below is a list of the instance names of the movie clips plus my actionscript. I've attached a link to the flash file.
[URL]
INSTANCE NAMES
box 1 = "circle_mc"
box 2 = "circle_mc2"
both the grey boxes are called = "targetCircle"

I was wondering if there is an easy way of navigating through a website without the use of multiple pages and eliminate the use of a navigation bar. My idea, which I'm sure has been done before because people are always coming up with new inventive ways to browse the internet, is to be able to allow the user to free roam the entire website on one page. I wouldn't be asking if I found it so I figured I could put my mind at ease and ask someone.url...In this map, it allows the user to free roam this map and find different cities. My idea is to have the user to browse a map of a website to different parts of what would normally be links to other pages. The whole web map would be one page and the user could just move their cursor up or down or left to right to each section of the website. Once they get to a section, they can click on certain parts. There is one website that is similar to my idea, but I want to eliminate the use of a navigation bar.I am new to flash but I love web design. I want to come up with a new way to navigate.

How can I print multiple pages in Flash (based on dynamic HTML content that might vary in length)? For instance, how would I grab the text that is beyond the limits of that first page (the printJob.pageHeight)? I can get the text fields text height and subtract the printJob's page height but how would I grab 'the leftover' text.

im creating a small drag and drop game in AS3-
I have 4 objects and 4 targets,
I want to be able to drag any of the 4 objects onto any of the targets, right now all I can manage is to allow each object drop onto one specific target only.
I thought by calling all my target names by the same instance name eg target_mc that would work but only one target will ever work.

I am trying to create a project with multiple pages. I stumbled across a tutorial demonstrating how to load and unload swf's. I used it and it works. way i could specify a btn or mc in the loaded swf that will specify the "click" area where the unload content takes place? Right now if i click anywhere on the loaded swf it unloads (i want that to be specified).
var myLoader:Loader=new Loader ();
page1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page1content);

I'm creating a interactive cd in Flash.In my flash file is a movieclip that consists 103 frames. Every frame is a different page.I'm using Indesign to create this pages because its the best way to work with so many different pages.When I export the pages to .jpg everything looks and goes wel. Only the quality becomes very low when putting the swf to fullscreen.I've tried exporting it as .swf but is it wisely to put 103 .swf in a flash file? I'd like to keep the text vector and readable on every screen size.

I have a website partially made where I intend to apply a backing track throughout the website.my AC looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
}
var soundReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("sound.mp3");
var sound:Sound = new Sound();[code].....
I have a button at the top right of the page that allows me to stop and start the music. The problem exists when I go to another page (the audio is playing), then click the home button again. This starts the audio track from the beginning again whilst the first track is still playing.How do I need to modify my code in order to stop this from happening?

// Set properties on my Loader object
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(url));
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, imageLoading);

I use the loadImage() function to load a multiframed swf movie then I use the function below to print but only one page comes out what am I doing wrong? How do I get it to print all the pages of the external swf?
Code:
function printScore(mc:MovieClip):void{
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
if(myPrintJob.start()) {
var printOptions = new PrintJobOptions(false);

I'm kind of stuck on something and I haven't been able to find out how to get around this. I have a form that consists of 3 pages. User fills out the first page, then clicks continue, fills out second page, then clicks continue again, then fills out final page then submits. Usually when I build a form, it's just on one page so I just send all of the variables to a php file. In this situation, I'm not sure how I could jump from page to page.

I'm making a Multiple Drag and Drop in Multiple Targets educational puzzle for 6-7 y/o kids that tries to teach them a bit about which plants grow in which environments in the country. So, I have a map of Mexico divided in 3 diferent zones: desert, forest and tropic, and 6 different plants (of 3 different groups: cacti, pines and tropical flowers, 2 of each) scattered across the stage and around the map. The goal is for the kids to drop the plants in the right zone and then to click a "verify" button that triggers a validation process. Each of the plant's movie clip has 2 frames with a stop(); action on each: the plant graphic spans across both frames and the second frame has a red error sign over the graphic that indicates an error has occured (if that's the case). Then the validation process triggered by the "verify" button is supposed to move the playhead of each wrongly placed plant move clip to the second frame to show which plants are misplaced and move the main timeline's playhead to a frame that contains a "Please try again" text and a "Restart Puzzle" button. If all the answers are right, an animation plays saying that it was VERY WELL DONE! .
I searched the internet for some tutorials and found a file that is pretty close to what I need. I've tried to adapt the code to my puzzle but have failed miserably. The file is here if you want to check it out (scroll to the bottom of the page, it's called Soldier.fla). I'm not pasting the code here because it's VERY long, but I will if required. If you want me to upload the files somewhere else and link them here, I will. If you need me to send them to you I'll be glad.

I have a printjob routine, that starts a new job, then handles the following in a loop for printing multiple pages: 1. update content for every page in a sprite. every loop it's the same sprite. the sprite is visible on stage 2. addPage to Printjob after that sends the printjob to the printer
Now the Problem: On Windows it runs perfectly. On Mac only the last page was printed. the other pages before are empty (white). Her's my code. As you can see i try to print a table on multiple pages. In every loop i only show the rows for the actually printing page:

After modifying code from a tutoial I've got the drag n drop game part of my educational project app working beautifully.The unfortunate thing is that If I hit the home button that is common to all the "pages" in my app to move away from the game, the balls that have been dropped into the correct position remain visible on the stage in ALL other pages.I'm guessing this is because the AS code removes the event listener so once dragged to the correct postion in the game, they snap there and cannot be moved.Am I right?How can I solve the problem of the dropped balls being visible on other "pages"
var counter:Number = 0;
var startX:Number;

this.createEmptyMovieClip("numbers", getNextHighestDepth());

zahl = Number(substring(geschenke[i]._name, 7, 8));

Is it possible to reposition the blinker in a text box?
I have a text box and the user can press a key to add a specific string and I've already done that. The problem is the blinker ends up between whatever the user typed and the new string, so they have to move the blinker to the end before resuming typing which is, needless to say, very annoying.
I was wondering if there was any sort of actionscript that can check and/or modify the position of the blinker.
Something like:
Code:
on (keyPress "*") {
//Move blinker to the end of the textbox here
}

I have a game: The object circled is the amount of shots you have left. But it removes the last object in the array, so the last bullet, its hard to explain, I have 20 bullets, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. The array is removing the 1 first. Well what I am saying is number 1 is actually number 20, so the array is doing nothing wrong, I did. But I am not sure how to reverse the order.
So [ its removing this one-> o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o]
But [ --------------------------------- o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o <- I want it to remove this one]
The reason being is because the user cannot see how many they have left, so think angry birds, the amount of birds is displayed according to the amount there allowed, its to the left of the slingshot, like mine, every time the bird is shot, the rest of the birds shimmey towards the slingshot untill there is none left --- This is what I want, but have managed to confuse myself aswell as you most likely.
Here is my code, to generate and take awau my bullets/birds
public function createShotIcons() {
shotIcons = new Array();
for(var i:uint=0;i<20;i++) {
var newShot:ShotIcon = new ShotIcon();
newShot.x = 200-i*15;
newShot.y = 300;
addChild(newShot);
shotIcons.push(newShot);
}} public function removeShotIcon() {
removeChild(shotIcons.pop());
}
