ActionScript 2.0 :: Set Properties - Get Properties - Change An Mc Name Dynamically?
Sep 14, 2005Just been playing around with the tutorials, on the Set properties/Get properties. Everything is all cool, except the "instance name" aspect. I dnt really understand that too well. Is it possible to change an Mc Name dynamically? If you look at my FLA when you hit the top left red button you will get a trace of the mcName as "square". Now if you input a new mc Name on the right hand side, you will see it change on the left hand side. But i want to know why it doesnt remain as the new mc Name, it still goes back to square.
View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Trace The Properties Of An Object's Properties?
Jan 30, 2008I forgot to put it in the title so I'll just place it here; I am using AS 2.0. I know that there are other ways to accomplish the goal that am after, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to access the properties of an object's properties?
Here is the code that I thought of, even though it doesn't work
var a:Object = new Object();
a.bproperty = 0; //lowerlevel properties
a.cproperty = 1; // lowerlevel properties
[Code].....
This really just boils down to how I am organizing the code(I have ideas on what do next, and i am 99% sure that I can get them to work), and if there is a way to dynamically access the properties of the objects properties, It will save me from creating yet another large block of code for my project.

ActionScript :: Xml - Setting Object Properties From Other Object Properties?
Jun 25, 2010i'm attempting to cast an object's property as an actual property of another object. here's my object variable: var propObj:Object = {prop:"width", width:50}; now i want to assign the property of a sprite using that object's properties. var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); sp.(propObj.prop as Sprite.property) = propObj.width; now, i'm not even going to try that because i know the compiler will explode all up in my face. but you should be able to see what i'm trying to do. why i'm trying to do it is because i'm reading in an XML file with an undetermined list of usable properties for specific objects. so instead of writing something like a huge switch statement to evaluate whether the XML file has a value for that specific property, i'm trying to assign properties dynamically based on what's available in the XML file. if what i'm trying to do is possible, what's the best way to do it?
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Using Variables In Properties?
Jun 8, 2009I'm trying to craft a simple image gallery with 6 thumbnails on the left and a large image container on the right. I've assigned a MOUSE_OVER listener that executes the following function when activated:
Code:
function viewLargeImage(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var imageName:String = evt.target.name + "_large";
this.mc_tabRight.imageName.visible = true;
}
The instance names of the thumbnails are img1, img2, and so on, and their larger counterparts are img1_large, img2_large, and so on. When the MOUSE_OVER occurs, the larger version becomes visible. The gallery is within a movie clip (mc_tabRight; a tab that pulls out from the right side).So in my mind, the second line of the function should make visible the instance passed from the variable in the first line based on the rollover. I tested the code using trace("imageName"); and it returned the correct instance name, but when executed and the thumbnails rolled-over, it returns this error: TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
The larger images are all present on the stage when the function is called. I'm sure I'm making some fundamental error here,

View 2 RepliesAnimation Properties As Text?
Oct 12, 2009I need to create animations to serve two audiences: 1) human participants in an experiment, and 2) a program I'm writing that will "watch" the same scenes. For the first audience, exporting to SWF works just fine, but for the second "audience", the Export Motion XML option isn't working as expected.
As a test, I created an ActionScript3 FLA file in Flash CS4 with a stationary red circle in one layer and a green circle in a second layer that moves across 10 frames. When I export each of these layers, the files differ only in the "x", "y", and "symbolName" attributes.
How can I generate a single text-formatted file that shows the positions of each symbol in each frame?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Is It Really THAT Bad To Use Public Properties
Jul 26, 2011So the reason I'm asking is..I have like 2000+ lines of code in 5 different separate classes. And they ALL have public properties and methods (as in, ALL the properties and methods are public). This is a fairly complex tile game 2d platformer. And yet everything is working fine. From what I've read, it seems that it 'MAY' cause problems later, where you might make a mistake and call a property twice, or call it 'wrongly', which then 'MAY' cause a bug that would be hard to backtrack.
There are surely many other reasons why not to do this..but if everything is working smoothly so far, should I really go back and try to make every variable private and recode this engine before I get to far?

Apr 3, 2010Is it possible to define 'public properties' of an object in the constructor method when you create the object ? similar to..

when I specify one or more of these I get... 1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0.

View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Properties Between SWFs In Different Browsers?
May 18, 2009My main swf calls in an audio player that I wrote as a separate swf. There's a seek function inside the audio player that skips to any given track in audio player's list, after receiving 2 arguments: artist name and song name. That's semi-irrelevant... but just to keep you updated.
In the parent swf, there's a list of songs, and when clicked, each song will pass those 2 arguments to the audio player swf's seek function. The problem is simple enough to explain:
In the Flash test, it works fine. In IE it works fine. In firefox, I click the song button, and nothing happens. The audio player still works fine, but I can't seek to other songs from the parent swf.

View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Instances Of MC All Have Same Properties?
Aug 16, 2009I have a Hero that can shoot bullets. I can get him to shoot multiple bullets, all with equal velocity. The bullets are supposed to be peas from a pea shooter, so I want to apply friction and gravity to them so they slow down and fall. I'd also like them to bounce of objects too.At the moment I'm just applying friction, so the peas should be shot forward, and then gradually come to a halt in the air. The problem I'm having is that if I apply friction to one pea, it generates the next one at the velocity that the 1st one is currently at - that is, the second pea starts out slow, and stops very quickly. The 3rd one is generated not moving.
How can I set the velocity to reset for each pea, so they all start out equal? They all move with the same properties, so I want to deal with them all in one arrray/loop. Is this possible?I have posted the basic structure without any velocity or anything specified because I'm not sure where everything should go. If I specify a starting velocity in the document class and then use the for loop to apply friction, it changes the velocity of every pea. The Pea class just contains functions to draw the pea.
Code:
public function bullets(event:Event):void {
if (s==20 && PandaHero.currentFrame==13) {

View 3 RepliesSetting Same Properties To Multiple Buttons?
Oct 16, 2010I'm completely new to this forum, and would like to ask your help for one issue. I am working on an interactive flash map, I was able to set all the countries borders with the help of fireworks (awesome tool), and import them back to flash and set each country as a button. I would like to set all of the buttons to have the same properties for example : All the buttons have default red color, and will have a mouse hover frame that will change the color of the button to blue. I DO NOT want to set each button manually, because I would like to have the choice to change the mouse hover color to a different one, and would like to avoid passing each button and changing each one's mouse hover frame.
Is there a way I can built a template of a frame, and for each button set its mouse hover frame as the template frame I built ? And then if I make any changes to the template frame, all of my buttons would be automatically updated ?
