I am trying to create a two dimensional array in AS2. It should have two values like name and roll no. and stored in such a manner that they can be traced out and also the corresponding values should be together.
as of now I am using...
myArray1.push({name1:inpName,roll:inpRoll});
trace(myArray1);
I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array();
var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array();
slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.
I am currently playing around with flex, I have C++ background, so I am not used to AS3.The problem is in the main*.mxml file I have fx:script block and I try to define a multidimensional array like that:
public var Board:Array = new Array(25);
I use a function to initialize the 2d-array:
public function initBoard():void {
var i:int;
var j:int;[code]....
This function gets called later on in the main loop to init and reset the "board" why doesn't it work. The only difference to the AS3 documentation is that it gets done in a function.
I have an 2D array that will look summat like this:
var numbers:Array=[[10,1,3],[9,2,4],[8,3,5],[7,4,6],[6,5,7],[5,6,8],[4,7,9],[3,8,10],[2,9,1],[1,10,2]];
now how do I order this array by the 3rd number so it looks like this:
2,9,1, 1,10,2, 10,1,3, 9,2,4 , 8,3,5, 7,4,6, 6,5,7, 5,6,8, 4,7,9, 3,8,10
I have tried:
trace(numbers.sortOn(0,Array.NUMERIC));
returns:
5,6,8, 9,2,4, 8,3,5, 7,4,6, 6,5,7, 10,1,3, 4,7,9, 3,8,10, 2, 9,1, 1,10,2
trace(numbers.sortOn(2,Array.NUMERIC));
returns:
5,6,8, 9,2,4, 8,3,5, 7,4,6, 6,5,7, 10,1,3, 4,7,9, 3,8,10, 2, 9,1, 1,10,2
trace(numbers.sortOn(3,Array.NUMERIC));
returns:
5,6,8, 9,2,4, 8,3,5, 7,4,6, 6,5,7, 10,1,3, 4,7,9, 3,8,10, 2, 9,1, 1,10,2
spaced out for ease of reading.
following on from B.Rich's great Multi-Dimensional Arrays and attachMovie tutorial, i'm trying to load the array from an external source.i've got a text file that outputs: url... i then try to break this down in flash into a multi-dimensional array that provides info for dynamic buttons:[code]however its not working at all. i'm not sure if its because the attachMovie loop is not getting initiated or what..
View 12 RepliesI visit this site almost every other day and it has been a sort of online Gita for me. I am a designer and I find advanced actionscript really tugging at my brain cells.
memberInfo = [["1","http://www.madmusings.com"],["2"],["3"],["4"],["5"],["6"],["7"]];

As you can see I got it working this far. Now I want to have an inner loop so that only 5 buttons ["container"] come in the first line at yPos=100 and next five in the second line at yPos=150.

with this code(below) I am trying to load images into multi-dimensional arrays that will be used in another class... hopefully my code will explain my intent. Anyways, at runtime I'm getting the Error #2044 Unhandled IOErrorEvent: Load Never Completed. I've got this error many times before, and I somehows always fix it, but have never been able to figure out the problem... I've been working on this pretty much all day so my brain may be fried and I'm missing something simple, but regardless, it's quite annoying.

I am trying to add a image to the container but am having problems. The image variable is loading fine but not attinching itself to the empty MC I have on the container.

In Flex ActionScript, a new object can be instantiated via the parameterless constructor with or without (). Example: var array:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection()
var array:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection
Is there a difference between the two? Is one preferred over the other?
I have moviclip called "b1" which I am using as a button. This b1 is in the shape of switch and when I am clicking on it it turn right and when I'm clicking again the switch is turning left to the primary position. this action is explained by AS code:[code]And only thing which I do is that I have to modernize this AS code for my own requirement. My problem is that I don't have any idea to connect those two codes. My scene ( my menu bar which I was talking about) looks like that: URL...and please click one of the buttons to see what i am talking about.
View 3 Repliesfriend and I are working on this Flash application that retrieves data from a IBM DB2 database and displays it. We read somewhere that Flash can't connect directly to a database, thus some middleware is required. So we are using JSP or servlets for our middleware. The problemIn our best (but limited haha) knowledge, we understand that we need to first declare an XML object, and then use a Load method to invoke a servlet that accesses the database and fills the XML object with records of the database. Finally it'll return the filled object back to Flash. Are we correct in this sense?Er, the problem is, we have no idea on how the servlet code works. We can successfully connect to the DB2 database and retrieve records, thoughBtw, we did try loading a XML file into a XML object. However, it's wierd. This is our XML file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>

I've not touched AS2 since AS3 appeared, but circumstances brought me back to using AS2,Is there way to invoke the functions/methods in a loaded movieclip? I know you can do that in AS3 by invoking the Loader object's content's function, but I haven't been able to do that successfully in AS2. I'm currently using the AS2 MovieClipLoader object, like so (snippet):[code]as set up, I intended the target movieclip's function 'invokeInternal Function' to run, but it doesn't seem to be doing it although the SWF itself loads successfully.
View 2 RepliesI've got a movie that i'm calling a webservice from. When I run the movie in flash it downloads the service stub and makes the SOAPCall and loads the data as you would expect. But when i upload it to a site it loads the service stub makes the SOAPCall but "Received SOAP response from network" is not called.
About the files: I load the movie in an html file using UFO. There are some external interface calls before the webservice is called but these definatley return what is required for the webservice to run because the stub does not get downloaded if they don't return anything.[code]...

I've attached a project that I'm working on, but this is a couple versions old as it's the only one small enough to upload. While I've not yet completed everything, I'll try to talk through what I'm trying to do. I've included actionscript on (a couple of) the home/aboutme/etc. buttons so that when clicked, it calls a gotoAndPlay instance on the label layer, and I'll eventually add this same code to all five of the buttons. What I'd like to do is have the animation that's being called simply play and then stop rather than just continue on through the rest of the timeline -- for example, clicking on the home button plays from the frame where I want it to start, but then it continues on through the rest of the timeline.
I'm not having much luck with doing a mc.stop(); -- so would adding a this.stop(); to the actions layer at the various spaces where I want to stop playback meet my needs of (1) stopping the various actions the buttons have called, while (2) still allowing for button clicks to resume navigation and playback throughout the various animations?
I have a flash movie that starts with an intro video, once the video has played a menu will appear, but I can't get the action script to go to another frame / scene / movie clip once the flv file has stopped playing
View 4 RepliesI have a movie with a video and when I exit fullscreen mode (pressing ESC) I want to execute a function. I mean, exit fullscreen and execute my function at the same time when pressing 'ESC'.I tried to add a listener but it doesnt work.[code]When I go fullscreen, I press ESC and flash exits fullscreen, but myFunction() doesnt load. If I press ESC a second time myFunction() works.Is the ESC key blocked in fullscreen mode?
View 2 Repliesi have a for loop running through an array:
Code:
for (var e:int = 0; e < coo.length; e++) {
coo[e].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, evidenzia);
coo[e].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, evidenzia_fisso);[code]....
i'm recalling this cycle in a lot of functions so it's kinda boring and confusing repeating it every time.i tried assigning a variable to the elements:
Code:
var coo_att:MovieClip = MovieClip (coo[e]); but it doesn't work properly.
I have no trouble invoking a Class using the code on the main timeline shown below; var testClass:MyClass = new MyClass(); //code on maintimeline invoke Class. However, if I were to remove this code and just use the Flash Class Input Field and insert; MyClass //the name of the Class. I get throwback errors:
1 - Call to possible addFrame Script?
2 - MyClass must subclass flash.display.MovieClip etc
I've tried variations of adding and removing the flsh.display.MovieClip Class
I'm working with a third party swf that I cannot change and am charged with making it work in a local environment, loaded within a container application I have built. The SWF was published for accessing the network sandbox, so whenever it invokes the ExternalInterface in a local html container, it throws a security sandbox error and kills execution. The ExternalInterface calls are all non-critical (logging) so if I can block them somehow, then I won't have a problem any more.

the global.pane_array is specified in my FLA Obviously i would like to see the trace from the array, but nada.... if i put the movePanes() outside the rollover event, it works fine... however this does not achieve my goals
also if i declare the function as a global function from within my FLA, and then call it on the rollover e.g. _global.movePanes() - it works!

I've got a bit that loads a big chunk of xml data about products.I push product info into an array(e.g. productArray), then add that array to another array (e.g. allProductsArray)How do I sort those arrays? For instance, if I want to sort the allProductsArray based on the info in productArray[0]?Alternatively, would something other tha an array of arrays be a better route?This loader loads the same sort of info for many different clients, so the bit to sort on will change.
View 5 RepliesI want a bubble chart that just shows items along a straight line. So I'd like the horizontal axis to essentially not exist. I have it working right now with the yField assigned to a field that happens to always be '1' on my test dataset.. but this is not going to be the case in general, so I need some way to restrict the y-axis... preferably without needing to go back to my model and parse through all my data to add a dummy value '1' on each entry.
Unfortunately setting min/max values just cuts off anything above or below rather than restricting entries.
I set computedMin and Maximum (no idea what they are and the docs don't really explain) but it didn't seem to restrict the data in any way.
I have this as xml :

I'm trying to write a function where I can specify any amount of array, and the return value will be an array containing the contents of all of the specified arrays.I've done this, but it seems like a really slow and ugly way of doing it:
var ar1:Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
var ar2:Array = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h'];
function merge(...multi):Array[code].....
Is there an inbuilt and more efficient / nice way of achieving this? The result does not need to be in the same order as the input - completely unsorted is fine.
A little explanation: Im making a random arranging number Array. So instead of using a loop and assigning 0 to first array element, 1 to second, etc.I need to make it totally random but without repeating any numbers. To do that I made a second Array that will have the same number of children to serve as a reference.Each of them will be an Object with a property "num" , wich will be its actual number, and a property "called" wich defaults to false.Like this:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i:int=0;i<vQuantity;i++){
ranArray.push( new Object() );
