ActionScript 2.0 :: Duplicating Dynamic TextBox Multiple Times?
Dec 17, 2003
I am trying to duplicate an MC 11 times - that works fine. But the MC has a dynamic text box centered on it. I would like the first one to say "1900" and each one after to be increased by 10. So the second one says "1910", the third says "1920" and so on. I have this code on an MC called "timeline". The MC I am trying to duplicate is called "bar" and is with "timeline":
[AS]
onClipEvent(load){
for(i=0; i < 12; i++) {
_root.timeline.bar.duplicateMovieClip("copy"+i, i);
ext = _root.timeline["copy"+i];
ext._x = 125 * i;
[Code] .....
but to no avail. The dynamic text box on the bar MC is called "year". I have tried making that the var as well as the instance name and still no luck.

I have a question about movie clips. I have about 20 MC-s in my flash. Is it possible for me to duplicate one of them multiple times in specific location? I mean if I have button that says "DOG" and I press it, then new dog appears on screen. And I need to do it for like ten times or so

My goal is making a navigation section that is a scrollable box. I thought the easiest solution was to make a dynamic text box and put a scroll bar on it. Worked until it came time to make the links. It is only letting me make one link for all the text. Also I think I want more control for the mouseover look.

I have a dynamic text box for multiple questions in a text. We would like to get the text box to align bottom (so the text is always at the bottom of the box no matter how much text is in the varriable). Is there a way to do this?

I'm making a banner ad for work and have a part where I want to basically rain our logo for like 15 frames or so. I've started doing this manually but as you can imagine, it's a bit tedious and time consuming. I looked at Kirupa's tutorials on snow and continual motion but I'm wondering how I would go about scripting it so it does the following within mc_logorain (which is sitting on the root) on enter:
1. duplicates mc_logo many times, randomizing size.
2. Rains for a set amount of time or frames and unloads.
I think I understand the logic of what's supposed to happen, just not sure of the syntax. Would there be two loops? One for the duplicate/random size and one to say basically "while i < 100, keep duplicating and raining"?

I can't for the life of me figure out how this works. I have tried several different methods found in these forums and none work. I am trying to duplicate an MC 11 times - that works fine.

I have created an application that lets the user dynamically edit the content of an online greeting. I want the application to be able to duplicate the edited greeting 4 times, so the printed page will contain 4 exact duplicates.
I tried using duplicateMovieClip, but it would not duplicate the dynamic content edited on runtime.
I was able to use attachBitmap and "capture" the screen content, only to find out the resolution of the duplicates was far from being acceptable (I guess because screen resolution is only 72 dpi, and I need it to print nicely).

I am extremely untrained in CS4 and Actionscript. However I have managed to get along fairly well until I started to dynamically upload images as a gallery. This works great if I have one gallery, but for my site I have 9 galleries!!! I have a back and next button, but I want to be able to use those same buttons for all of the galleries so they look the same. I have split them up and renamed them, but I am clueless on how to script the buttons to work.This is what I have now because I do not know where to put the other button names without getting errors.
stop();
next_btn .addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber: Number=1;

I have a image of a person that I would like to load a certain number of times in a row to show a total of how many people took part in this particular event. In total I need 166 replications of this image, is there any actionscript I can use to do this without having to create a key frame for every separate image?

I have this animated block that I want to use multiple times in a scene. Everything looks fine until I move the background(separate layer) with a tween. The second it moves it shows only one animating block instead of 4. Also, if I click on "show this layer only" it only shows the one block.So how can I use this movie clip multiple times?

I have an array of suffixes that I'm using to load images, some of which are used multiple times:
Code:
for(i = 0; i < imageSuffixARR.length; i++){
var tempLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var loaderOBJ:Object = new Object();
[Code].....
I'm running into is that whatever loader calls the multiple used SWF last gets it. How do I fix this so that the same loader can be used multiple times?

What I want is to do this [URL] in actionscript rather than with tweens...as u can see, it takes EONS too long to load (on some PCs at least) (and I know, it DOES need a preloader (which I have), but I'm going to add that later. I want to get this going first). Now, I read a decent bit about onEnterFrame, and did some tutes, but I'm not quite sure how to use it to do what I want.

I have a large image that exceeds the bitmapdata limits, so I am trying to break it up into 4 separate images and encode them separately using the PNGEncoder. The first 1 comes out great. The remaining 3 all contain the same bytearray data and result in a blank image.
Code:
public function encodeUsersDrawing():void{
pngImageQuadrant1 = new BitmapData(1875, 2400, true);
pngImageQuadrant2 = new BitmapData(1875, 2400, true);
pngImageQuadrant3 = new BitmapData(1875, 2400, true);
pngImageQuadrant4 = new BitmapData(1875, 2400, true);

when I click a button it loads an SWF, then when I click another button it loads another SWF into the same loader. However it appears to be loading multiple SWF's in conjuction with the amount of times I clicked a button. So say if I clicked a button 3 times it would load 4 of the same SWF's on the forth time and load them at the same time.

Im sure there is a simple way to do this, but it's been driving me nuts for days now.I am trying to loop through all the data in my xml file, thats no problem, however I need to read the data three times for the menu I am building. Is there a simple way to do this? Basically I want to take the first set of results, then add on the second then the third. So I will end up with a list of data three times what is actually contained in the xml doc.

I'm creating a movie where I need to have several copies of the same external image.It seems that when viewing the movie in Firefox the external image is downloaded only once regardless of the number of copies I make, which seems correct.In IE the external image is downloaded once each time I copy it within the movie.And that just doesn't seem right.(I've upgraded both IE and FF to Flash Player 10.)For testing purposes I've written the following code
Code:
var pages = new Array();
pages[0] = "images/Page_01.jpg";

I'm having trouble with sound in Flash. I may have went about coding the wrong way, because most of my codes are on frames.
So, I have these two variables
var outsideDay:Sound = new daysong();
var outsideNight:Sound = new nightsong();
And I want to play these songs on a specific frame. However, the sounds play sporadically, like 50 times at once. I think it's because I have other codes that link to the frames with a Enter_Frame function. How can I get the sounds to loop and not play multiple times at once?

The following code works in the following way:
When I enter incorrect values in the txtother.textbox and focuses out, an alert will be displayed as "Please enter a valid Format Mask." . After pressing the "ok" button in the Alertbox the txtOther.focusout even is triggered again. i.e. immediately after pressing the OK of alert, the same ALERT is displayed again.
I have added the code for ur reference:
//in mxml File:
<mx:Canvas label="General" >
<mx:VBox>
[Code].....
I don't want to the alert to come again and again .. I need it in such a way that when the ok button of alert is pressed. The txtother.text should be in focus, and the alert should not come again and again as before.

These will be dragged and dropped on stage.However I need to be able to click a MC and have it "copy", or whatever, it self to be dragged so I can drag n' drop a mc multiple times.So for instance lets say I have 3 movieclips a_mc, b_mc and c_mc, on stage.In the area I want to drop them lets say I want to do thisa_mc, a_mc, c_mc, -or- b_mc,c_mc,c_mc etc... but still leaving a_mc, b_mc and c_mc in there original area.
