I have 3 movieclips as windows on my stage. I would like to navigate between them to attach objects to those 3 movieclips. My question is: How can I tell flash which is a currently selected movieclip...? So that the to be attached object goes and sits in the currently selected widow/movieclip?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to do a motion tween on a movieclip that is selected from an array via the following code:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var toMove;
[code]...
unfortunatly it doesn't seem to be moving the movieclip, nothing happens. If I change toMove to a static name it'll detect it and work properly.
'tf' is the instance name of the textfield inside a series of movieclips (_root.gm_mc.tfP1.tf, _root.gm_mc.tfP2.tf, .... _root.gm_mc.tfP99.tf). How do I make the selected movieclip active? and make the following onRelease action work only for the selected?

Im building a game, where the user has several images as movieclips. He can drag them to an area of the stage, and selecting them, he could rotate it. Does anybody knows some tutorials on hoe to start?

I have a menu with many sub menus. I need to change the color of the selected button and then move on to the sub menu. My menu is horizontal and now it's not obvious the path that you follow.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible? What I'm trying to do is enlarge the hitArea for a selected movieclip on my stage, but only onRollover. I have 5 MCs on my stage acting as buttons of sorts. onRollover of any of the clips, they grow in scale and I'd like the hitArea to do the same so they (MC and hitArea) are proportional.
View 2 RepliesLets say I have a nav with 4 items that are blue. If I click on one, I want it to turn red and stay red to reflect that Im looking at content in that area. If I click another nav item, the previous turns back to blue while the newly selected one turns red. I started to write a function and define a variable but I would like to see an example.
View 3 RepliesIs there any way to disable a few columns for a particular row in flex datagrid?
I have a datagrid with about 10 or more columns, say for example a few column names are: Item Id, Item Name, Item Status and VerifiedState. Initially I want the column Verified State to be disabled.
Now When the value of the column, Item Status is Review Passed for a particular row, I want the column VerifiedState to be enabled and editable. Is that possible in Flex datagrid.
Lets say you have a bunch of similar movieclips and you want to move anyone of them dynamically. We would use:

Something like that. However, my issue is not selecting a movieclip dynamically, but selecting another movieclip dynamically within a dynamically selected movieclip.
I have placed TextFileds inside TileList Compontent. When i try to select the TextField it can't show the selected Textfield in the TileList items by default the TileList items are selected.Finally i need to select the TextFields.
Here is my code:

function TileListExample() { var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(); var totalEntries:uint = 3; var i:uint; for(i=0; i<totalEntries; i++) { dp.addItem( { source:getTf(), scaleContent:false}

On the website I'm currently working on:I'm running into a problem with my flash pages. If you click on About Us from the menu, on every computer but mine the About Us header at the end of the animation shows up as regular text and not the style I used.Here is a screen shot of what it is suppose to look like:on why this would happen? I thought it may be because the font wasn't installed throughout, but it's the same font as "embrace hope' which comes up fine.
View 2 RepliesI have a list component on the stage in an AS3 movie. I populate it with values at runtime and the user can select multiple values. When a button is clicked I want the list to reset to a state where nothing is selected, all I can figure out is to set the selected index to 0 and have the first position on the list either blank or reading "choose from the list" and make the code ignore this if it is selected. Is there a way to reset list (and combobox components) to nothing selected.

I want to be able to select a item (image, movieclip etc) that has been added to the stage in Flash and access its file name.
So if I drag a image called 'imageOne.png' onto the stage, I want to be able to access its name, 'imageOne.png', and pass it to a Extension for Flash that I'm building. I know I can get details from the library, but not from the items selected on the stage.
Can anyone tell me how to access this information using JSFL.

I would like to apply a transition effect to a group of selected layers. Essentially between each scene of my intro.Can anyone shed some light on the best approach to do this effectively?
View 1 Repliesan example how to do this?UPDATEI know how to get the selected item in actionscript,but my question is how to get it in javascript?
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble trying to use actionscript to load different files when different values are changed. I am currently using a tilelist and they have different values so the code is something like this: (the title is just there, non-related)
if (startTileList.selectedItem.value == 1)
{
//textFile1 load here[code].........
So I want different text files to be loaded when different value is selected but I cannot seem to get it working.
I have two layers namely topLayer_mc and bottomLayer_mc. The actual vector drawing is drawn on the top layer and onmouseUp of the tool, a bitmap copy of the vector graphics on the top layer is taken and added as a bitmap to the bottom layer. The top layer is cleared subsequently. It is working for the pencil tool.Now I need to create an eraser tool. This is where things get tricky. In the application there is an option to save the image as png, so alpha has top be preserved. So the coventional method of draw a brush using the vector and using the draw method of bitmap will not work. Of course, on a visual level it would work if the brush drawn using the vector is to have the same color as that of the background.
What I need is to excatly erase the pixels.Now I have created a brush tool using the conventional technique and clearing is possible but what I need is to exactly erase the pixels. Is there some technique to draw this ? This is the code that I am using: I have also uploaded the swf and source code, When trying out, please draw all over the stage using the pencil (press Pencil button and start drawing)The source fla is also provided.
I have been searching around for a while now, and cant find anything. In Flex, I need to be able to change the fontWeight of a RadioButton that is selected to bold. So, when a RadioButton is selected, it would call a function in AS3 that would set the fontWeight of that selected RadioButton...
valveRadioGroup.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeRadioHandler);
private function changeRadioHandler(event:Event):void {
//change this RadioButton's fontWeight to bold

studentID = myDataGid.selectedItem.studentID
Does not want to work for me. Tracing the expression in debug it is returning "XMLList (@11e55e8d1)".
The datasource is an XMLListCollection. tracing the expression myDataGid.selectedItem I can see the studentID node and it has a value.
I see that starting with Flex 4.5, Adobe recommends that we use the spark.components.DataGrid class as an alternative to the mx:dataGrid which I am not at all familiar with or where to start to learn. I have this mx:dataGrid all setup and otherwise working and would prefer not to have to learn something new.
I can't retrieve an equivalent to selected button on spark .
A bit of code:

I'm new to the whole flash thing and I'm learning on flash 8 - In photoshop you can group layers so that the blending mode you use on a layer will only apply to the layers in that group... I've been searching all over, and maybe it's right in front of me, but does flash have a way of isolating the selected blending mode to just the layers or objects of the user's choice?
View 6 RepliesThe only thing that has me puzzled is the preview field. Basically i have a background which is a movie clip, it basically transforms from the loader to the background (over 70 frames).
is there a way to have the preview field for the root movie display a child movie at a frame other than frame 1? At the moment it looks like this: [URL]
But i'm wanting it to look like this: [URL]
It would help or positioning other items if i had the background displayed how it will actually be?
