ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash MX 2004 - Loading Variable Attached To Instance
Jun 6, 2007
I have 25 instances of a movieclip "star", duplicated and assigned variables using the following code:
Code:
for(n = 0; n < 25; n++) {
star.duplicateMovieClip("star"+n, n+1000);
with(eval("star"+n)) {
startype = random(3);
}};
I now have it so that when I click on any instance of "star", I'm taken to another frame, and in that frame I'd like to be able to look up the variable "startype" for that particular instance only. How exactly can I do this?

I have been able to customize the adding thumbnails tutorial to meet my needs but I have one remaining issue. I have gotten some suggestions from some people on here to try and help me fix this but I can not get it to work.I have tried on my own and I am unable to get it to work. The thumbnails are loading in reverse order from they way they are listed in the XML file or when I simulate download the thumbs load randomly. Is there a way to force them to load in the order they are listed in the XML file?[code]

I need to remove some movieclips that are attached dynamically so they do not show up underneath the new movieclips that will be attached when a user clicks the next button. I've tried removeMovieClip with little success. I am able to remove one or two of them, but not all. I need all of the previously attached movies gone.
Here is the as2 for it.
PHP Code:
//Set functions
function show_movie() {
menu_mc._visible = true;
buttons_mc._visible = false;
teacherinfo_mc._visible = false;
} function displayInfo() {

I just moved to AS3 and I learnt how to attach a movieclip.
ActionScript Code:
var attachedMC = new (getDefinitionByName(PageName) as Class)();
holder.addChild(attachedMC);
Where PageName is the string containing the Class of the movieclip in the library and holder is the instance name of the MC to be attached to.
But what instance name do I use to refer to the movieclip that got attached?
In AS2, the code would have gone like this
ActionScript Code:
holder.attachMovie(PageName, "instanceName", 1);
The instance name part of the code seems to be missing in AS3. SO how do I refer the the attached MC or "child"?

I am having trouble with variables in the latest version of flash. I am using if statements to see if the variable is at a specific value. I keep getting errors telling me to put quotes around the variables and values but when I do they become strings which isnt what im looking for.

I am wondering if anyone has experience this problem before:
[Code]...
I was experiencing some other "strange" behavior so I'm wondering if my code is getting too long. Maybe I'm running into some kind of limit. Has this happened to anyone else? Anyone know of some fixes? The loop is in a _global function, could that be causing a problem? other than that, the code is on line 4420 of the actionscript coding interface.

I need to make something that mimicks The Dancer over at[URL]I've created all the movie clips but I don't know where to start with the loading and unloading of the dancing bits The buttons at the bottom scroll through movie clips with different movement. So the "arms" button would load arms01, then when it's clicked again, it would load arms02, clicked again it would load arms03, and then repeat when it reached the end.

I have a base class I've used on 6 different MC's. Then when I use these MC's my function runs an if statement to check which one to add.
if(id=design) var obj = new design();
if(id=team) var obj = new team();
I want to make it a bit more dynamic and use the id:String to evaluate which new instance to create.
ActionScript Code:
public function loadChapter(id:String):void {
var obj = new instance_of( id )();
}

I have an application I am developing, a part of which involves a number of icons on a page - when you roll your mouse over an icon, the movie moves forward a frame, and a text area is populated with text, fed from a php file (which pulls data from a MySQL database). Each icon pulls in a different value, depending on the values in the php file.
I have this working a treat - see code below. The only problem is I need to create a seperate button / mc for each icon with the appropriate references on - in the code example below, the icon populates message.text - this.message2 - message2 is a value in the php file. So the next symbol would be message3, etc.
on (rollOver) {
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
message.text = this.message2;
[code]....
I will need a large number of these icons, all with different values, so I would like to create a generic button that looks at it's instance name, and uses this for the numbered variable - i.e. the 2 in "message2".

Say i have a movieclip named a_Mc ( ClassA ) I have a sub-movieclip named b_Mc ( ClassB )
CASE 1: Accessing the sub-movieclip b_Mc which is already present inside the a_Mc movieclip
( Since Flash IDE has "Automatic instance naming" OFF )
ClassA mentions the name of b_Mc as => var b_Mc:MovieClip;
NOTE HERE: That the variable name MUST BE same as the name of the instance on stage.
So i can access it as : trace( a_Mc.b_Mc);

Let's say I'd like to post some data to a server side script. If my data is
var data:String = "<data><tag1>hi</tag1></data>";
and I'd like to send it with LoadVars, I can do:
var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars()
lv.data = data;
lv.sendAndLoad("http://thescript/", lv, "POST");
However, this results in the POST looking like this:
data=<data><tag1>hi</tag1></data>
if I want to send it without the variable name (no "data=", just the actual data), how is this possible? In AS3 I can just use the .data property of a URLRequest and it will work, however I can't find a way to do this in AS2.

How do you make a variable have multiple answers attached to it?
example:
workPages = page2_mc, page5_mc, page6_mc, page7_mc
I tried this but it only used page2_mc and an array didn't work.

I'm new to AS3 and HaXe, but was hoping to find a way to use methods from a final class (Graphics) without always prefixing an instance variable.Instead of something like this:
var gr:Graphics = flash.Lib.current.graphics;
gr.clear();
gr.beginFill(0xffffff, 1);
gr.drawRect(0,0,400,400);
I was hoping to get something that works like processing.org, but I guess a lot of the convenience there comes from the preprocessing. I looked at the HaXe reference on advanced types (http://haxe.org/ref/type_advanced), but I haven't been able to make anything work so far. This probably isn't possible since Graphics is final, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. It seems it would be easy if I could extend Graphics

I have a Flash Professionl AS3 project I am working on.
I have this in a main movie:
but1b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fbut1b, false, 0, true);
function fbut1b(e:MouseEvent):void{
var mc:documentwindow_mc=new documentwindow_mc();
mc.x=450;
[Code].....
The issue I have is I need to do this 40 times.
Is there a way for me to use the same documentwindow_mc movie clip and pass a variable to change the "documents/print2flashdocument1a.swf", part?
How could I do this from the fbut1b function?

I know the basics of shared objects but I never really got into it I was wondering if there is a way that I could save and load movieclips that I attach to the stage(Each has its own name such as clip_1,clip_2,etc) including the location(_x,_y,rot) and have it duplicate them all over again and move them to the same location as before (I'm using Actionscript 2, by the way)

3.Image Viewer;When the image viewer is opened the image viewer window opens.When images are loaded into the viewer and captions are added they appear to work in Dreamweaver but they dont move in sequence when the buttons are clicked.In browsers the captions dont appear. If the window is closed and reopened all of the images have disappeared and just the image viewer returns.The response I got from an inquiry to Adobe was; The version of Dreamweaver has been discontinued and is no longer supported via phone or web cases. We only support versions CS3 andCS4 via telephone or web. have interoperability between these two programs?
