Sep 19, 2006
How to create class files in flash. I am trying to create a rectangle with the class file here is the code also.

function hotSpotClass(logoToLoad:String){
var myName:String;
var hotSpotX1:Number;
var hotSpotY1:Number;
[Code] .....
I am accessing all the methods working fine but the rectangle was not created. I have wrtien this code in my FLA file.
import hotSpotClass;
var testObj:Object = new hotSpotClass()

I'm new to Flash AS3. I started making a game and I am a bit confused. Let's assume that I want to create a game that has multiple levels/modes, how can I do this in an object orientated way?
When i create games in other languages e.g. XNA C#, i create a separate class then create an object of that class within the main class and run the game based on a simple statement.

i) Create a symbol called SimpleSquare. This should consist of a simple red square graphic
ii) Create a class file to define a class called SimpleSquare. This should be linked to the SimpleSquare symbol. SimpleSquare ashould have the following functionality: When the instance is placed on the Stage, it should start to disappear by decreasing its alpha at 0.01 in every frame (hint: alpha)

I have been practicing and trying to understand how classes work and I was wondering if it is possible to create a class that can be reused by declearing the class only once in my fla file. Rightnow I create an instance of the class than I asign it to a MovieClip the problem is that I can only use it once and if I want to use it again I have to create another instance of the same class, something like this.

I am trying to create a basic flash script to load an external swf file using MovieClipLoader class. Here's my code:
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("splash.swf",5);
I simply copied it from a tutorial. Unfortunately it throws an error message as follows:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MovieClipLoader
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method.
PS: I have CS3 professional in my machine but I am following Flash 8 book. But my CS3 application supports AS1, 2 and 3.

I have a class called shapeC that only creates a rectangle and then addChild(rectangle);. That class is instantiated on the main timeline. Currently, the only way you can see that rectangle is to add the instantiated class to the stage via addChild(shapeC);. My question is, is there a way that the shapeC class can add the rectangle to the root stage without requireing the instantiated class to be added to the stage?

I can create a MovieClip using the follwing process:
1. Select rectangle tool from ToolsWindow and draw a rectangle by dragging through mouse.
2. Then press F8 by selecting the drawn rectangle, select radio-button with "MovieClip" and click "OK".
3. Now give the instance-name to this newly created Movieclip(say,myMovie). Now, we are able to use this MovieClip.
But, I don't like to use this process and I like to use ActionScript 3.0 code as a sole to create a custom-sized MovieClip(here, size depends on MovieClip's "width & height" properties) upon which I need to place as many no. of text-fields( say, "n")& "n" value is known dynamically upon requirement. Hence the MovieClip size must be increased/decreased as per our requirement depending on "n"(i.e., no. of TextFields.
And my code writte in "Actions" panefor changing the MovieClip's size dynamically upon requirement looks like this:
HTML Code:
myBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onSubmit);
function onSubmit(evnt:MouseEvent):void
{

My need is:
1.) I need ActionScript 3.0 code to create a Rectangle shape which must be a MovieClip. So, I need to pass/access MouseEvent_CLICK events on this MovieClip.
2.) Now, this newly created MovieClip(or rectangle) should not be created with same/static size always. Instead, it's size is dependable on some value(say,var index:int).
In this case, I think it is better and good programming practice to write the code for dynamic-sized MovieClip in a user-defined method(say, createDynaMovieClip()).
I need the full requirement in ActionScript 3.0 code format only.
I got struck up with this problem and the sample code which I developed till now is as shown below(which creates the required rectangle):
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var rectangle:Shape = new Shape();
rectangle.graphics.beginFill(0xF3FAB8);

This is a hard question to phrase and having trouble finding the right search terms. In the last couple of weeks I have been learning AS 3.0 and the fantastic Classes that are cool as heck (not a programmer... well sort of). Everything has been working great and I've grasped the concepts well, but because of my lack of experience I am not sure of the "best" way to do some things. For example where (which "as file" to create an array of characters?)
This is a very simple game:
25 "characters" (character class in Character.as)
All characters have the exact same properties with different values:
charName:int
life:int
strength:int
movement:int
type:String
char_mc:MovieClip (or sprite.. probably mc)
There are 2 types of characters; shipCrew and aliens. The differences between the two is that shipCrew can use various weapons and have unique "names". Aliens don't have names, just a type and they can grow and/or multiply. All of the interaction and basic game play I can handle no problem once I figure out "where" to create my characters and classes and or subclasses. My initial "training experiments" worked well... until I started reading up on "best practices" in coding and realized I had it kind of all mixed up and backwards. My concern is "doing it wrong at the start".
My first stab at this was to create the array of ALL characters in the "main.as" class for the document, then looping the array, creating new character instances on the stage. Since each character has different properties I just created the same array properties for each with a different value. So basically I am "hard coding" all the characters up front "by hand" so to speak with all the properties in the array. Since they were all identical basically, looping the array to "do stuff" was straight forward... for now. The array looks horrible in the code and is hard to "read" but since it's all "static" anyway it doesn't seem to matter... but would still like to "do it right".
Game play is simple because at a basic level each character regardless of what type it is will do the same thing. I would expand on the differences later. However as part of this inquiry I will need class instances on the stage to communicate with each other (like the idea of a registry for this). So my questions are:
Should I create individual as class files for all 25 characters? (icky?)
Or use an array to store the character class objects? A dictionary? A vector?
They all worked, I tried them all. I like arrays better because easier to deal with, but dictionaries look like fun and might be more efficient (only 25 items, how bad could it be?) storing in an object works too. Whatever type of "array thingy" I choose, Which class file do I create the array in? In the "main" document class or the character class itself? In another type of file like an "init" file? Could I create a "custom" file "type" or class... thingy like "CharacterCreator.as"? How about using a registry?

Is it possible to use scrollRect without the flash.geom.Rectangle class?I know the scrollRect can be used like this:import flash.geom.Rectangle; myMC.scrollRect = new Rectangle(10,10,100,100);I need to make a flash which doesn't extends outside the stage (bacause loading it from another flash will expose anything outside the stage area). Using a mask is an option, but scrollRect seems very interesting because it would be easier and give greater performance.But I can not import the flash.geom.Rectangle class (and it seems overkill to import a class just to set x,y,width and height)How can use scrollRect without the flash.geom.Rectangle class?

I've been playing around with custom classes. My objective was to create a custom class (Testing) that would create a box when an instance of the class is created. I've tried three different approaches, however only (3) seems to be showing up. I'm just curious why (1) or (2) doesn't work?
Also is there a better approach than (3)? Since at the moment it's been created on _root. I hope the box can only be accessible through the instance. Since I'd like to incorporate the whole idea of public, private, encapsulation, etc.

For those of you still with me, I am tasked with making some scrollable content in Flash. Load in a TextFile using LoadURL(), then display it. To get the text, we've written our own class TextFieldExtended, which is basically just there to give the textfile location to the constructor and then have the class do the various steps of getting it and loading it for you.So I needed to get a Scrollbar, which I got hereThe thing is, it works with Sprites.After trying to get it to accept TextFieldExtended, I bumped into a block, since the scrollbar relied heavily on a Sprite property that TextFieldExtended didn't have or could have.
So I tried adding the TextFieldExtended instance to a Sprite instance using addchild.A problem occurs here that I do not know how to handle. It seems that a Rectangle is drawn and the Text is drawn on that. I say this because the scrollbar moves the Rectangle up and down a bit, but the text doesn't scroll, just the Rectangle it is positioned in and the text then moves along with it.My question: can this be fixed, or is does this implementation of scrollbars need a lot of adaptations before this is possible?

I have the following code to create a Sprite with a rectangle in it:
container = new Sprite();
container.graphics.beginFill(0x00CCFF, .5);
container.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0x00CCFF);[code].......
The only thing is, I'd like the registration point to be in the middle (not the top left corner). Is there a way to set up the registration point in the middle of the rectangle, but still have the position of the rectangle be correct?
i.e. not moved over so that the top left corner of the rectangle is in the "middle" of where I want the rectangle to be...

I am trying to convert a rectangle(actually multiple rectangles) to a curved rectangle. I think it should be pretty easy but I guess i am stupid. Basically I would have a start position and stop position (many of these), and they would be converted to curved rectangles and follow in a cicrle around.

I would like to create a rectangle inside of a rectangle, starting approximately 15% inward from the right side of the other rectangle.
I know how to create rectangles with:
Code:
var newHotRect:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
newHotRect.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
newHotRect.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
addChild(newHotRect);
But how would I make another rectangle on top of that (the black one pictured) that is approximately 15% from the right?
I toyed around with .right, and .bottomright with no success. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? or even finding the x and y of the upper right or bottom right side of a rectangle?

how to respond when a rectangle hits another rectangle? I already know how to detect the collision, I just don't know how to respond to it. I'm just trying making a simple side-scrolling platform game where I have platforms I can walk on and bump against on all sides. I have searched everywhere and just can't find the tutorials I'm looking for.
