I have a function and a movieclip prototype. When the prototype applies an onEnterFrame to an mc, it repeatedly calls the function (hitTests for all other mcs). Besides this, it also eases the mc to a new point. However, when the mc have reached this point, the function handling the hitTests stops being called
PHP Code:
//Prototype....MovieClip.prototype.moveSprite function(speed, spriteType) // Generate random coordinates var tarX = Math.round(Math.random()*(400-
I have a function and a movieclip prototype. When the prototype applies an onEnterFrame to an mc, it repeatedly calls the function (hitTests for all other mcs).

The function should trace "carn" over and over and over, but instead, it traces "carn" over and over until the prototype picks a new point to ease to.
ActionScript Code: /** * Use in place of trace(). Calling function will be logged automatically. * */

Put that code in a utility class, and then from any function or method in your app, call myClass.reportStatus("Something happened"); and you will be rewarded with something like this:
how could I find out how long is some function executing?is this number, however small, always consistent for the same function or there may be differences (taking in consideration that only one function is running at each moment)?
I'm trying to execute a fucntion by calling it through an event listener I can't call it directly seems to be out of scope or un intialized or something. I've had luck calling variables in this manner but have never tried to call a function. Can I do it through the event?
I have a headerbar.mxml that is displayed when user swipes_down in my app. The headerbar.mxml contains a button component I want to run an erase() in the main application window. The main application is a drawing app that contains an erase(). I just don't know how to call a function from another mxml view file. I thought it would be something like
click="{mainwindow.drawPanel.erase()}"; EDIT: protected function onColorChange(event:List):void{
I have a main.mxml, child.mxml and headermenu.mxml. I click a button on the headermenu that dispatches an event up to the main.mxml which then executes a method in child.mxml. I know this works because I put an AlertDialog in the function I'm calling inside of the child.mxml. The child.mxml contains a drawingArea object that has an erase(). When I call this directly from child.xml it executes, however if I put drawingArea.erase() inside of the function being called by child's parent (main.mxml) nothing happens.[code]...
I have 3 external .as files... Game.as Checker.as CheckerP2.as
In Checker.as I have the following function... static function checkPossibleMoves(){ ... }
I'm able to call and execute this function from Games.as using the following code... Checker.checkPossibleMoves() But whenever I use the same function call in CheckerP2 the function does not execute?
but later I want this onEnterFrame to stop functioning to conserve on processor resources. setInterval isn't too good of an option from the way I have things set up, so right now I just set it to a new function with a trace action which overwrites the old one.Is there a command to simply just clear or break the function from executing?
(Using Flash Pro 8). Currently, I just need to execute a simple show/hide function that is controlled with a key. Currently, I have a circle movieclip with this coding attached to it:
Actionscript Code: onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = true;}onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = false;}
And on the first frame of the timeline, I have this code ( so that it is visible = false to begin with ): Actionscript Code: _root.circle._visible = false;
Now, my problem is that when pressing the RIGHT key on the keyboard, it reveals the circle, but when it is pressed again, I want it to hide the circle again. Obviously there's a conflict between false and visible, but I don't yet know how to tell flash to make the distinction that the RIGHT key has already been hit once. Is there some kind of 'listener' or something?
Im currently working on a script which will dynamically create letters and then play the sound of each letter.
I can get the script to work but for some reason it doesnt seem to play the 1st sound the 1st time I click on the button to exectute the function.[code]...
I'm making this game with Adobe Flash and I have this level where you need to stop a bomb from exploding, but when you stopped it and go to the next frame the bomb is still running and you still go to the game over screen when the countdown reaches 0. For the countdown I use the following ActionScript:
[Code]...
(Frame 4 is my game over screen) I also add with the dynamic text the word ''count'' next to Var: So is there a way to make it stop running on the next frame? Also am I willing to use a different ActionScript for a countdown if somebody knows a better one.
I have this movieClip "Container" and within it on two different frames I have two movieClip/buttons, "pause_btn" and "play_btn", respectively. I would like to call a function on the main timeline on frame two of "Container" where "play_btn" is located. I think I'm getting close but really have no idea. I know about the visible property and have been considering that, but isn't there a way to call a parent function from within a child movie clip? The code looks like this.
I'm making a game and the main functions are close to finishing. But I'm having problems with my start screen. I'm working entirely in Flash Builder.My users should be able to click a button to start the game. Right now I don't have a functioning start screen yet, but initially the game started immediately with Game.as. But I now decided I want a start screen. So I made a new class file with the graphics and buttons for the start screen in the constructor function, and I added a Mouse click event listener to the button.The game itself is in Game.as, that runs perfectly.In the function for the mouse click event I added:
Code: removeChild(startscherm); var startgame:Game = new Game;
I have a pause function that fires when the first frame of my swf loads. PHP Code: Welcome transition function pauseMC(sec) { var i = sec - 1; var MyPause = setInterval(function () { if (i == 0) { clearInterval(MyPause); [Code] .....
However, if the user navigates away from this "Welcome" section, the actions following the "pause" still fire. I need to find a way to stop the pause function prior to the actions executing. Below is the function used to trigger the navigation events and where I should be executing the action to stop by pauseMC.
PHP Code: function moveLeft () { var t = this; this.opened = true; //this._x = _root.navWidth * this.index; [Code] .....
I have a function which contains some code and about half way through calls another function. Only problem is it stops the main function from running so the code following it snt executed. What I want to know is is there anyway to go back into the original function at the point at where I left and carry on executing? I've thought of one solution but its a bit long winded and I just wanted to know if there was a quick and easy method, before anyone asks the code needs to be in its current order.
I have a function that has a site pop up when the user clicks on a button. This works well except it goes until the frame that has the command stop(). Is there any way to have this function continue on, even when that frame says stop? Or is there a different command besides stop that allows this function to work up to and including that frame?
The stop() command is on frame 90.
I tried gotoAndPlay(88) and it gives the user the mouse hand, but nothing pops up.
I made a flash site and one of the pages has drag and drop functions with drop target actions, so that text appears once dropped onto a target.It works fine but when I have it loaded inside an external editor, the drop and drag still works but the drop target function stops working.
I have a movieclip with the instance name information_mc. I am trying to get this movieclip to move up and down, depending on its y co-ord or in what direction it is tweening at the moment it is clicked.I have the following AS:
Code: information_mc._y = 240; var curMovement:String = "goingup";
I have a movieclip that has selectable text / scroll bar / other buttons etc - What I would like is to have an onRollOver / RollOut event to call a function on the entire movieclip, however when I do this - The entire movieclip is treated as a button and I cannot select the text nor click the scroll bar / other movieclip buttons within this movieclip. Is there a way to set the onrollover / rollout to execute a function without having the movieclip itself turn into a button / stop functioning?
I have a function which is meant to check a variable called basetemp against a variable called newtemp and, if they are not the same, change basetemp until they are. It does this in increments of 0.1, and neither value ever adds or subtracts fractions smaller than that.The code responsible for this function looks like this:
I have a very simple website in flash, just some buttons and minor animations.I have a stop on frame 105, and the code for the buttons on frame 1. It's all there and recognised by the script assist, but won't show up if I debug OR test the movie .Finally it's recognised the "Stop();" function, but still not executing it, says "Error 1180 - Call to a possibly undefined method Stop." Really can't work out why it's doing this, read somewhere that it could be because of a corrupt library item, but I deleted all of them and the stop function still didn't work.
I have a function that states when movieclip1 is dragged and hits a line then it stops the drag, however it seems to stop the entire drag function in the swf on the other movieclips even though they arent called in the function.[code]
im trying to do is have a button that shows an animation (created by a duplicateMovieClip function) with onRollOver and stops the animation with onRollOut. It works when i roll over and it stops when i roll out, but then it continues in a loop up to the point where i rolled out (instead of cutting off completely as i would like). Id be extremely grateful if you could tell me where im going wrong.
I'm using the loadmovie action on a frame that is played several times when certain buttons are clicked and the problem is that everytime the frame is played it would load the new movie again. Is there a way to disable the loadmovie action after it is executed the first time? I only need it to play once and thats it.
