ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Cannot Create Extended MovieClip
Sep 15, 2011
Why Flash creates regular MovieClip object, not instance of extending class? So, I've written a class "test" and put it into "n/test.as" file (as shown on the first attachment).
Code:
class test extends MovieClip {
private var flag:int;
public function test() {
trace('!!mover constructor!!');
flag = 56;
} public function Method():Void {
trace('in methdo');
}}
Then I've created symbol in the library, specified it's name and linkage identifier (as shown on the last attachment). Then I've put following code to the first frame:
Code:
import n.*;
var r = this.attachMovie('test', 'test_mc', getNextHighestDepth(), {_x: 40, _y: 0});
trace('ret ' +r);
trace(test_mc.flag);
trace(typeof test_mc.Method);
program_mc.Method();
And I see in output panel that test class property flag and method Method are undefined for test_mc.

i am developing a kind of (near-)isometric engine (in Actionscript 2.0), kinda simple, which is using MovieClips as wall or floor textures.This is the Wall texture i have:This is what i would like to have:The height is always 1.5 times the width. Its a simple skew transformation.Currently i have two possibilities:I am creating the finished wall in photoshop, save the file as PNG (because of transparent areas). Because i cant import PNGs at run time, i need to create all possible textured walls. A lot of work if i have a lot of textures (Say, i have about 200? )I am importing the original Texture into Flash, and perform a free transform directly in the MovieClip. I still have a lot of work because i have to do this to each textured wall!I would like to do this transformation in Actionscript, so i could import any texture JPG at the runtime (LoadMovie) and just need to have the File names stored somewhere or retrieve them and so on.
I didnt find any possibility to perform a skew transform to a MovieClip in Actionscript..The transformation is just like this: Rotate by 45 deg. (CW) and reduce the height of the finished transformation to 1/2.i am able to apply the _rotation and _height transformations, but the second transformation is always applied to the root object, which often might be very helpful, but right now its not.

All my custom classes that extend MovieClip simply trace as "MovieClip" when using stage.getChildIndex(i); I'm trying to search the stage to see what objects have been placed and then add them to the correct array. E.g. if I place 5 "Enemies" on the screen, I want to then add them to an array by searching the stage for the "Enemies" class, without naming each one and adding it manually in the code.
Edit:
Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i < stage.numChildren-1; i++)
{
trace(getQualifiedClassName(stage.getChildAt(i)));

I have recently started out with flash oop concepts and was wondering how to do create an instance of an extended movie class without dragging and dropping the clip from the library ....I have figured out this method..
for(i = 0;i<100;i++)
{var mc:MovieClip = attachMovie("ball","dasd"+i,_root.getNextHighestDe pth());
mc._x = Math.random() * 600;
mc._y = Math.random() * 600;
}
but this way I cant pass arguments to the constructor function of the ball class..

I'm having some trouble with using a Document class in Flash CS3 that is an extension of another class. When I do this, I can no longer make references to MovieClips with instance names on the stage.Here's an example. I have a class called Minigame that extends MovieClip and then a class Shooter that extends Minigame. So the relationship looks like:MovieClip <-- Minigame <-- ShooterI want to use Shooter as my Document class in the Flash file Shooter.FLA. However, when I do this, I am unable to directly access any instance names of MovieClips on the stage of Shooter.FLA from Shooter.as. In other words, if I try to write the line:var mc:MovieClip = this.instanceName;in Shooter.as, I get the error:1120: Access of undefined property instanceName.

I have 1 class (that is extending a UIcomponent) that is representing a component. In that component I create different instances of another class that is also a UIComponent but this class doesn't show up in de first class. I see that it is running and that it has the correct hights but I got the feeling that it doesn't show up with this hights. If I trace I see the width and height is 200 X 200 but there is still nothing visible in my component.

I've created a Button in Adobe Flash CS5, it's a Symbol, and its type has been set to Button.
The button has a dynamic textfield with the instance name label.
I've set the class of this Button to MenuButton, and I've set the class to Export for ActionScript.
This is the code of the MenuButton class:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code]....
Whenever I put a string in MenuButton's constructor, label's text doesn't change.

If I have three classes:
public class Example {
public function Example () {
}[code]............
You can see that the two last classes extend the first one, and both have the 'variable' property. In case that I have an instance of Example and I am sure it is also an ExtendedExample OR AnotherExtendedExample instance, is there some way to access the 'variable' property? Something like
function functionThatReceivesAnExtendedExample (ex:Example):void {
if(some condition that I may need) {

I have a movie clip which has two frames. On the first frame I have the front side and on the second I have the back. I am rotating the MovieClip by rotationX, rotationY, rotationZ properties.I want to display the frame 2 when the MovieClip rotates. Please help. I dont want to use PaperVision class. Also, please consider the Perspective View of the scene.Sometimes, the MovieClip might not only be dependent on rotation. It is also equally dependent on the position (only in Perspective View).

My goal with this actionscript is to create a new movieclip for each top-level XML node and include in the movieclip two separate textfields, an image, extend the movieclips to two row if necessary, rotate each movieclip differently depending its parity and add a hover event based on the movieclips instance name. I have achieved each goal except for the hover bit. The reason I cant access the instance name outside of the for loop is because the instance name only lasts for duration of the loop. Here is my current code (at pastie address).

I'm trying to create rows of information in Flash using createTextField in a dynamically attached movieclip. I have the autoSize property set to "center" to account for varying lengths of text. However when I try to obtain the height of the current textbox so I can set the _y property of my next record, Flash doesn't seem to be recognizing the autoSize property and returns the same height for each record.
I added a second frame in the movieclip I'm attaching with a "trace(this._height)"... The correct height property is shown.
how I can get the height property right away after creating the textbox?

This is the third thread I've written for my current project (1st was answered perfectly, 2nd failed [but I still figured it out anyways]) but I'm not sure if there is a solution to this problem. I can't really explain my problem, so once again I've included a helpful animation to show you what I mean. Bear in mind that the pale-blue box represents the movie clip's borders, and those borders are usually changed to include the animation (instead of the borders moving with the animation, the borders get bigger).
For the animation problem, I've already got a solution: create an invisible movie clip that has the exact size and shape of the animated movie clip and make it follow the movie clip as it animates, and make the hitTest check the invisible movie clip instead of the animated one. As for the rotation problem, well, I don't know how to fix it. Is there a way to change that?

I'm trying to create flash app where a single jpeg (person headshot) is loaded into the masked movieclip (same size as passport photo) (using loadMovie), then user can edit the image (drag inside mask, zoom, rotate) and then after pressing a button the app duplicates the EDITED image 4 times - to make sort of headshot sheet.
While I know how to load movie, drag single clip or scale it, I have no idea how to duplicate the movieclip once is edited, to make identical copies of it (scaled, rotated...)If I use duplicateMovieClip it won't work since it won't duplicate the loaded image.

Don't ask me how, but I've made my Actions Frame way too long and I can't drag it up high enough to size it correctly. Consequently, I'm not seeing the end of my code without adding a whole bunch of empty space.

I'm creating an object that's only purpose is to hold a few other display objects, so all I need is a super class that can hold display objects. I don't want to use the sprite class because it has so many functions and properties that I don't need. if I can't use DisplayObjectContainer as a base class then what class should I use?

I've extended the ByteArray class, like this:[RemoteClass(alias="MyByteArray")]public class MyByteArray extends ByteArray {}and cloned an instance of this class using ByteArray#readObject()/writeObject(). However, for some reason, the cloned object is an instance of ByteArray rather than MyByteArray. This
is illustrated in the following example:
registerClassAlias("MyByteArray", MyByteArray);var b1:MyByteArray = new MyByteArray();var tmp:ByteArray = new ByteArray();tmp.writeObject(b1); tmp.position =

I'm running into the situation where I can't instance a SubClass in the above SuperClass because the SubClass is extending from the SuperClass.
I get stack overflow. Fair enough, right?
Well, I want to add this SubClass to the display, and the only way I know how to do that is through addChild(). To addChild() I need to instance the SubClass.
I can't put any visual display instance or events in this subclass because it's currently null and extends is keeping me from doing so. It's great cuz I can share all the goods, but now I'm stuck dancing inside functions because I can't use events on the main "timeline" of the null SubClass.

I'm working with the Facebook Actionscript API (no PHP or Javascript), and I'm having trouble granting access to extended permissions, like publish_actions. I'm using the following login:
var opts:Object = {perms:'read_stream,publish_actions,offline_access,user_photos'};
Facebook.login(handleLogin, opts);
I get two "Request for Permission" windows. The first says my app needs access to "Your Photos". The second says my app would like permission to "Access posts in your News Feed" and "Access your data anytime". Why can't I request access to "publish_actions"? It looks like there may be two permissions levels - regular and "extended". It looks like extended permissions may require a "scope" parameter, instead of "perms". How/where to use the "scope" parameter.

Ok, I have spent a little time searching and I can't seem to find an answer to my question, maybe I'm asking the wrong question. here's my situation:
I have a document class called Main.as, this class has variables that instantiate a CreateShape.as class that acts as a superclass. The CreateShape.as class has a protected function that is overridden by other classes (I have a CreateCircle, CreateSquare etc). Those CreateCircle etc classes, use extends to extend the CreateShape.as class, and thus have the ability to override the main method (called newShape()).
