I have successfully added the ability to add multiple events to my XML Calendar. However, the array lists without a break after each item. How do you insert a break after each item within action script?
var objXML = itemsNode_xml.childNodes;
for (i in objXML) _root[mc].label += objXML[i];

At the beginning of my Flash game, I do some fairly heavy-duty calculations to figure out path-finding and visibility and that sort of thing. The result of the calculations are a few large Arrays and a Tree datastructure. It takes about 10 seconds on my computer. Is there a way I can do this calculation once and for all, and then just package up the final datastructures right in the the SWF, so that no one ever has to do the calculations again?
View 14 RepliesI have created many games using a set of mutidimensional arrays. It is now time for me to make them external arrays to simplify some things. I did so, at first, using the #include. However, this loads the arrays at compile time.My goal is to house the arrays in an external file that is called when the game is loaded, NOT when it is compiled. In this way, the same game could be used with multiple different arrays without me constantly having to recompile it each time. It could just look for a file called "yourArray.as" or something and use that when it is run.
I am not very familiar with XML or javascript, so was trying to figure out how to do this with the arrays that I have already created without having to decode them and put them into another language first, only to have to change them back to actionscript later.
I saw it in this site...[URL].. it says "Include code from external sources using #include".umm... does it mean I can use C code, etc. within flash??
View 1 RepliesI have a simple array of movie clips ("box1" "box6") that I have created on the stage. I then have a simple onRollOver function that is iterated for each of these movie clips, as shown below. As it is now it's working fine, but I can forsee two potential problems for when I use larger arrays and apply this technique to my real working files.
If I were to have many more movie clips, the first line of code would be much longer as it lists each movie clip instance name. Is there a way to use, for example, a for loop to include all these movie clips in the array without having to type out all their names? As you can see here, I have used a simple numerically-incremented naming process. I think the problem may be that I am using movie clips with instance names assigned on the stage and not created through ActionScript.The function as I have created it makes all the movie clips gotoAndStop(1) and then the one that has been rolled over goes to frame 2. Is there a way of making all the movie clips in the array except the one that has been rolled over gotoAndStop(1), ie. is it possible to exclude the rolled-over movie clip from the first part of the function? Here it works just fine as it is, but I'm thinking that maybe when I start using more complex functions with tweens etc it may cause problems. Or not?

I'm trying to make a flash game where people write small files, and they get included into the game. However, I need to use #include with a variable, but it won't let me (malformed). I need it to be a variable so the user can choose the file to be included. Anyways, how can I get around this? I need it so it will import the script and use it, if theres another way I'll be happy to hear.

View 1 RepliesI would like to include fonts in a SWF that I am building using Flash CS3 and AS 3. I have found lots of examples online that look like
this:
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsARIAL.TTF",
fontFamily="Arial")]
private var _arial_str:String;
However, the definition of the variable defined below the EMBED tag varies, sometimes its "Class", sometimes its "Font".
In any event, the font is used this way:
mytext.font = "Arial"
The problem is that this does not work for me. I have tried the various types mentioned above for the asset but none makes any difference.
If I embed the font in the library of my project I can access the font this way:
mytext.font = new AvantGarde().fontName;
But when I try this code with the Embed tag I get different errors compile time depending on how I've define the variable.
It appears that the code samples I found are for Flex and not Flash?
I really want to be able to make this work without embedding the fonts in the library.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on some classes in Flash Mx 2004 Pro, but I cannot seem to get the #include to work.
This is the error msg Flash gives me:
**Error** myClass.as: Line 1: Classes may only be defined in external ActionScript 2.0 class scripts.
class myClass {
Total ActionScript Errors: 1 Reported Errors: 1
This is my approach, maybe I'm doing something wrong...
1. I have an external AS file called myClass.as, which resides in the same directory as my Class.FLA
2. I have a constructor function in my class called myClass:
Code:
class myClass{
public function myClass(){
}
}
I have used PHP Code:#include 'asfile.as' But it doesn't work in my sig. Any ideas how I could make it work?.

I have a series of AS3 classes that I want to install into the default directory that Flash looks for when, in code, one writes: import com.flashsim.FStEng.Three.*;
In AS2, there is the Classes/ directory within the Configuration folder. Very easy, nice. In AS3, that folder is not consulted, and I understand the Flash IDE does some kind of internal mapping.
I have created a SWC and added it to my Library path. However, I would like to package the SWC in a (code-only) component and put it in a folder that Flash is, by default, looking at to consult swc's. Alternatively, if there were an "include" directory, I could put the as files. However, when I try to put the SWC in the Configuration folder's Libraries, or ActionScript 3.0/libs (the "libs" I had to create), or I put the as files in the Include folder, my Flash code cannot access the stuff being imported.
I have to include a PHP page in a flash movie.
