ActionScript 2.0 :: Movieclips On Same Depth?
Jan 4, 2010I'm running a loop that's creating a multiple movieclips. Each clip can be dragged to drop point on the screen. What i'm trying to accomplish is when you select an item to drag it should take the highest depth, and should appear over all other draggable items. Right now the first clip is always under all of them while the last is getting the highest.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Swapping Depth Of MovieClips?
Aug 30, 2010How do you go about swapping depths in AS3? I've got a movieClip (allContent_mc) that contains a bunch of other movieClips(mc1, mc2, etc.) that expand in size when clicked on. However, when they are expanded I need to make sure that the one being viewed is on top. The control to expand each clip lives within each clip itself. Ideally, when the expand code (below) is executed, I'd like to make sure the clip's depth supersedes all others. I'm keeping all the clips together in one larger clip because the larger clip is living inside a scrollPane component. Pretty sure I'm just not defining the path to the clip correctly.
ActionScript Code:
function goOpen(e:MouseEvent):void{
this.setChildIndex (square_mc , this.numChildren - 1 );[code]...........

ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested Movieclips - Event Listeners And Depth
Dec 2, 2005I have two movie clips. The child movieclip is a button with rollover events which is nested inside the parent. I would like the parent to also have rollover events, but I understand that this is not possible in flash. I am familiar with two workarounds: event bubbling/delegation and the event listeners.

May 30, 2007im having some trouble when trying to implement the swap depth function to movieclips that have the setmask function implimented to them. the problem is that i can get the swapdepth to work but when the setmask is implimented at the same time the movie clips will not swap depths.
the code that i am using to set the mask is _root.bgmasked.setMask(_root.dragger); this is on frame one in the action/code layer bgmasked is the imaged being masked by dragger.

ActionScript 2.0 :: [FlashCS3] Distance Detection To Set Depth Of Movieclips
Jul 5, 2010I am working on a game engine that works like an overhead RPG, but the terrain is drawn at an angle with the characters at the same angle to give the illusion of a 3D world. the problem I am running into is that, while I can get the character to move perfectly fine on the ground, I need to be able to set the character to go behind or above certain objects depending where he is.
The best example of what I am trying to accomplish is from Gaia's MMO.
[URL]
As you can see in the first frame of the image, the character is in front of the bush, but behind the lamppost. In the second frame he is both behind the lamppost and bush. In the last frame, he is in front of both the lamppost and bush. during all of this though the bush and Lamppost never change position with the terrain or each other.
Basically, I have come to the conclusion that I believe the way this RPG is able to do this is through distance detection and depth swaps.
ex. if distance is above 0 character is above object. if distance is below 0, character is below object.
The main I would like to accomplish with this is the character, enemies, and NPC's are the only thing that changes depth. why? If an enemy is following and is on a different depth then the character, possibly higher or lower then the object, it could appear above or below the object while the character is the opposite.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Clear Movieclips Content / Garbage Collection?
Nov 20, 2008I have a movie clip that has 20 key frames, and on each key frame is a different bitmap that has been dragged into place from the library. when i attached this, the movie clip play and the memory goes (levels out at the end of the sequens).
But when i remove the movie clip (removeChild) and set the instance to 'null' the memory doesn't come down (even if i wait or force it to garbage collect). Does movie clips content get cleared?

Jul 30, 2011I'm working on a game whose background has many layers that each scroll at different speeds.
Inside each layer I have a Sprite, I've started using graphics.beginBitmapFill, but what I've found is that the graphics.clear() function doesn't actually clear the contents set by the previous call to graphics.begin.BitmapFill. Each frame, I adjust the matrix to shift the layer as needed. Then, I call graphics.clear() and graphics.beginBitmapFill() with the adjusted matrix. Since my layers have alphas in the bitmap, I can see the contents that was drawn the previous frame.

Jul 29, 2010Is there any way to see if a depth is already being used by a movieclip before assigning it to another movieclip? I have a game where there are hundreds of movieclips moving around on screen at the same time and changing depths every time they move. But at rare times, one movieclip will spawn at the exact spot another movieclip is in and use that depth, making the old movieclip invisible (but still active and moving around).

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Z-depth On Already Distorted Mc?
Mar 8, 2006I've got an isometric view of a flat surface. On this surface there are various characters running around and I obviously need to control the depths of each object.
My flat surface needs to be used in two views: top-bottom + isometric.
The original mc is generated in the flat top-bottom mode. For the isometric view, that same mc gets distorted: this way the whole XY coordinates system gets distorted too.
Have a look at this (updated).
So i'd need to create this extra coordinate (is it the classic Z-depth?), and manage to gather information about it...
Does anyone know what the formula would be to calculate the depths of each character (red lines)?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Depth Vs IDE?
Aug 26, 2011Whenever I create a MovieClip in the IDE and draw on it with the IDE then use ActionScript to add more to it (add a Sprite, draw graphics etc..) the thing I added is always behind the graphics of the MovieClip that was drawn in the IDE. How do I bring the Sprite/Graphics that I draw/add to the MovieClip in front of the graphics that were drawn with the IDE?I have tried doing this:
Code:
var myMC:mcDemo = new mcDemo(); //mcDemo being a MovieClip created in the IDE.
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]...
The final product of this is the myMC movieclip on the screen with my sprite behind whatever I drew in the IDE for myMC. How do I make it so the sprite is in front of everything? I have tried setting it to numChildren-1 which should set it in front of all objects.
