ActionScript 2.0 :: How The Level Names Could Replace With Variables
Oct 7, 2006
I've a problem with accessing different levels..
actually i'm in the 6th level of my swf and i need to access a movieClip in the 2nd level .
Is it possible to use variable names instead of giving the real level name and movieClip...
My code is something like this...
var levelData:String = _level2.mc_myMovie;
levelData.onRelease = function()
{

I'd like to replace a swf on what used to be called level 1, with another swf on level 1, by just loading a swf on that level, from the swf currently on that level, so it kicks out the current swf that called the new swf - just like it used to be in the old days of as2 How can I do this with as3? Do I just do an add swf with a remove swf straight after?
ActionScript Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myExternalMovie.swf"); myLoader.load(url);
myMovieClip.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.UNLOAD, closemyLoader0);

In the first frame I have 60 buttons with each having a actionscript in it using the instance name "A1". What I need to know is how can I REPLACE the instance name from A1 to B1 in 60 buttons in my NEXT FREAME?
Is there an easy way to do it rather than typing one by one?? I used the "FIND AND REPLACE" option but it replaces A1 to B1 in both the frames. I need to alter the instance name only in the second frame. How can I do it?

I am working on making a photo flip animation between 5-7 photos but i have to duplicate this 70 different times. So what i have done is made a scene for each set of 5-7 photos, they are externally being pulled in through an AS3 script to prevent a large .swf file from happening with all those photos. The problem i am running into so that i cant seem to run a find and replace search to replace the instance name values.

I have a scene with 3 buttons on it. I would like to be able to click the button and move on the to a specified scene. Will the following code work or do I need to used something else?
on (release) {
_root.contents.loadMovie("locations.swf");
}
Can I replace the locations.swf with one of my scene names or do I need to find another piece of code?

I can't seem to unload a movie, I've tried every possible actionscript code and still it won't go away. My objective is to run in the main stage a sub menu and for that I've done sub pages each one with a previous and next button (inside the movie that will be loaded), and that's the catch. I can't put the loadMovieNum in 0 level because it would replace the main stage. So I'm trying to do on the button:
on (release) {
unloadMovieNum(1); // it was loaded into level 1
loadMovieNum("new_item.swf",1); // he overlays both movies with transparency
}
Is there anyway to remove the actual movie and replace it with the new one?

The thing is, I create a grid on the screen, and each of its element is given a name. The question is, how can I access those specific grid's fields by their names? Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
private function drawGrid():void
{
var startX:uint = 0;
[Code]....
Now, If I wanted to remove, for instance, the box of the 13th row and the 25th column, how can I do that?

If I have a MovieClip called parent_mc and inside it I have another called child1_mc, I can use a variable for the "1" part of child1_mc and change the alpha for example like this:
ActionScript Code:
var myVar:Number = 1;
parent_mc['child'+myVar+'_mc'].alpha = 0.5;
What is the right syntax to use if child1_mc is not actually a child of anything and just sits on the stage? I have tried the following and it didn't work:
ActionScript Code:
['child'+myVar+'_mc'].alpha = 0.5;
and I tried:
ActionScript Code:
stage['child'+myVar+'_mc'].alpha = 0.5;
That didn't work either.

_root.varname._x=33; but it thought varname was an instance name instead of var.

So, I have something like..
Code:
select = ("block" + number);
trace(select._currentframe);
number++;
This is because I have 5 movieclips named block1, block2, etc. However, it returns undefined. When I directly state the instance name, like:
Code:
trace(block1._currentframe);
It works. How do I use variables as instance names?

I'm working on a game. I want it to attach a different level to the stage depending on what value a 2 variables are, but I keep getting Type Mismatch, or it doesn't work.
Code:
_root.attachMovie(PROBLEM IS HERE,"map"+mapSwitch,_root.getNextHighestDepth());
The current linkages are 00 (0x, 0y), and -10 (-1x, 0y). They are comprised of 2 variables, the first one is xmap, and the second is ymap. I want to be able to combine the 2 variables and then attach the clip with that linkage to the stage.

I would like to make an Object that has key names taken from a variable. Probably this is not clear enough, so let me make an example.
I have two variables var str1:String = 'firstKey'; and str2:String = 'secondKey';
How can I make an object that would look like:
var obj:Object = {firstKey: 'some value', secondKey: 'some other value'}, note that firstKey and secondKey are values of variables str1 and str2.
Doing obj = {str1: 'some value', str2: 'some other value'} does not yield a result that I would like

I can't create new variables within a for loop:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i<numBtn; i++) {
var this['menuBtn'+i] = new Sprite();
}
This doesn't work, saying I need an identifier before 'this'.
What I am trying to do is to make a dynamic menu, and the number of buttons depend on how many files there are in a directory, as each button links to each file;I get this value (numBtn in my example) from a php script, and I need to make a menu depending on it, but I can't seem to make it so that when I add a new file into that directory, a new button comes up on the menu and I don't have to change my flash file.

I have created movie clips using loops that names them box1, box2, box3.... via = i + 1;duplicateMovieClip (_root.box, "box" + i, i);but i then want to edit a textbox which is rooted inside each movie but related to the movieclip just produced. so if box1 had just been produced then:box1.textbox.text = " E cell = +j+"V";is done so effectively i am looking to do: box+i.textbox.text = " E cell = "+j+"V";

I am using the tween class to change the alpha value of a MC upon rollOver and rollOut. To refine the effect, I assigned a variable to the MC's alpha value so if the mouse moves off the MC before it has reached 100% alpha, it wont start immediatly fading from 100%, but from the value it had reached before the user stopped the rollOver action. Unfortunately, when I leave my mouse over the MC until it goes to 100%, and then I wait a second or two, the alpha snaps back to 50% (the starting alpha value).I can't figure out why this keeps happening, but I have run into it with other projects and I surmise it is the way I am using the tween class. Below is the code I used to make this happen.To see the problem, here is a link to the compiled file:
// image 1 Set 2
groupA.group2.image1.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("main_resized/1.jpg", pictureHolder);
