Trying to replace the number on the following call with a variable... How could i do it? Have to remove 144 of them... rather do a loop for it...
Code:
_root.mc_movies_area.mc_area_54.mc_54.removeMovieClip();
It is possible to call variables using this[ "stringname" ] for instance, to refer to a variable called "stringname".
However, when referencing a static variable by the name "stringname", the "this" attribute no longer works if applied.
Is it possible to use this technique with statics?
Does anyone know if there is a way to call a dispatchEvent call from inside of a static function?
View 2 RepliesI want to declare a variable on the main timeline that can be called from anywhere in my movie. So, _global var should be the right approach. I want to declare a movie clip 'MC1' "open", or "closed" so that when it is revisited, my flash file knows the user has been there before and performs a different task from the one it does when 'MC1' was first encountered. So, i need a 'if' statement to run from the variable, when the playhead encounters the movieClip.
[Code]..
The Idea is i want to make avariable that stores his value after i close the swf and open ti again,
an example:
i make acounter
var i:int = 0;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
timer.start();
[Code]....
the value of i will increase but after i close the application and open it again the value will return to 0 , keep the variable stores his value after closing the application ?
I'm trying to make something that will show up in a dynac text field something like this:"[variable1] text text text [varibale2] text text text"I've linked the dynamic text field to a variable "resu" and set it to:var resu = variable1 + "text text text text" + variable2 + "text text text"The only problem is that when I make the variables random, they don't change
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to call/envoke a public static function from JS? I can't seem to get it working and Im almost certain it cannot but I thought I would ask the community.
View 2 RepliesI'm wondering if its possible in flash to be able to call a static class function via its name as a string. I know for you're usual case you can do this to call the function 'func'
Code:
this["func"]();
func():void
{
trace("I'm a function");
}
However I'm wanting to do this from another static function and in a static function you obviously can't use the 'this' keyword. I've tried just omitting it, or replacing it with the class name but neither work.
I have a pointer to a Class object like so:
var temp_class:Class = getDefinitionByName(getQualifiedClassName(some_obj ect)) as Class;
I want to use it to call a static method 'can build' on that class, like so:
function can_build_ot(c:Class, qualifier:Object):Boolean {
if (c.can_build(this, qualifier)) {return true;}
return false;
}
When I do this, Flash CS4 AS3 tells me
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method can_build.
I found a lot of tutorials that show how to use getDefinitionByName() to create an instance of a class. Something like the following:
Code:
var classRef:Class = getDefinitionByName("menus.buttons.Icons") as Class;
var iconClassInstance:Icons = new classRef() as Icons;

I have tried multiple things, Changing instances, location of the code. I currently have 4 classes, Main, Missile, Enemy and House. House has nothing it in really. Missile make a missile, Enemy Makes a enemy. And main deals with adding it all to the stage, and making it randomly appear ect.

View 1 RepliesI try to make working an XML loader from a custom class on a new var, but when I add an Event listener it tells me this:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type XMLLoadData.
This is the code I have on the stage:
Code:
var xmlLoad: XMLLoadData = new XMLLoadData("navigation.xml"); //load the xml file
xmlLoad.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete); // execute onComplete once the xmlLoad is fully loaded
function onComplete(e:Event):void{
//
}
and this is the code of my custom class XMLLoadData
Code:
package{
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;

If I remove the listener on line 2 from stage, it working, but all my code execute the wrong way because the XML is not fully loaded.

I've been using Adobe Flash CS4 for a couple of days. I've drawn a worm, with eyes and a mouth and these pieces are all MovieClip symbols. I have exported them to actionscript with the class name being the same as what they are (ie. the mouth MovieClip is exported as mouth). The mouth has 2 frames, one smiling and one frowning. I need to mouth to stay smiling at first, so in Frame 1 actions I wrote:

I've got these 150 buttons on my stage which all do the same thing. They test their value against myVariable to see if there's a match. If there is, it's a right answer and the user gets a point. The myVariable may be anything between 1 and 150. I have my button code on a single frame now but I'm looking at duplicating it 150 times (1 for each button instance). This seems a wasteful way of doing things. Is there any way I can extract a variable from the instance name? The buttons named btn1~btn150.
Is there any way to:
btn 1~150 onRelease
var newVariable = [instance name - "btn"]
I guess this requires some way to listen for an instance name.
I have one swf with a button which, when clicked, needs to go to another swf in a different php page but to a specific frame, not the start of the movie.In the first swf I have:
register_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://www.myurl.co.uk?f=register");
}
[code].....
for example i have 2 swf file a.swf and b.swf can a.swf sending variable to b.swf? can a.swf control some movieclip in b.swf? in a case a.swf is loadMovie to b.swf...
