I have a series of movie clips that are named image1, image2, image3, etc. And I need to modify their visibility with a loop (make them all visible=false), but I just can't seem to get it right...
View 1 RepliesI have created a timeline with visibility button against each column. The timeline.swf is loaded into two empty movieclips to create a two-screen operation. Everything works fine except, I cannot for the life of me get the visibility button on the first swf to affect the visibility for the column on the second swf.

I have recently started using AS3 and can't seem to get to grips with some basic syntax for parent/root navigation. My problem is, I have an intro movieclip on the stage that plays first, when that is done i want some code on the last frame that navigates to another movieclip on the main stage to set its visibility to true. i have tried mMovieclip(root).mOther.visible = true; and a lot of other variations. Do i need to set them up as children? or something else.
View 3 RepliesI've got some quick code here. Basically, i'm trying to control the visibility of a single movie clip at the click of one button. One Click makes it disappear, the other brings it back again. Nothing i've tried seems to work.
ActionScript Code:
/* logic
make 1 variable

How could I get a bunch of randomly created (AND LOCATED) MovieClips to move away from the mouse coordinates when I click. In a shockwave pattern. From the center to the outside. Clearing a minimum radius of 50 pixels from the mouse click position.
I have no codes to show because I have NO idea how to calculate the movement. So that's my problem. I can get the mouse coordinates when I click, even calculate the radius that needs to be cleared, and detect any MovieClips inside it. But I don't know how to calculate where they would move to start the motion.
When I have a movie clip on stage and assign the peoperty like:mv_mc._visible = true /falset either shows or hide the movie clip. What I have on the stage is just a Graphical Element and Visibility is just an property.
View 1 RepliesJust new to As3. I can't set visibility of movieclip inside another movieClip
ActionScript Code:
player.vidImage.visible = true;
trace(player.vidImage); // shows - [object SimpleButton]
tracing player.vidImage show [object SimpleButton]. But can't set visibility true.
VidImage is physically placed inside player MovieClip.
this concerns flash cs5 and the timeline.Everybody knows the effect you get when you use appendText() to add text to a multiline dynamic textfield, right ? Well, I have a movieClip as a container, and I would like dynamic textfields to populate this movieclip in the same manner as textStrings would populate the dynamic Textfield.
How would this work?I have buttons that trigger addChild() function so as to populate the movieclip with textfields, but how do I make sure that the textfields make up an arbitrary list as a menu user chooses which buttons to click?
Let's say this is the visible text when the swf runs.(I cut away some of the code to make this more to the point):
var buttonTrace:TextField=new TextField;
addChild(TextClip.buttonTrace); buttonTrace.x=0;
buttonTrace.y=0;
buttonTrace.text="Breadcrumbs";
Now for each time I click a button in the menu I've made, a new textfield appears with the name of the button. This is how I want it. BUT......... How do I control the display properties and positioning of dynamic textfields within a movieclip ? How do I control persistent visibility, and how do I make these textfields appear one after the other in the order they were clicked.
I'm trying to create a movieclip object that contains another movieclip that continuously loops. My current problem is, no matter what I try, the embedded movieclip will not play inside the one containing it. It would be significantly more work to design the looping animations in actionscript than through using the IDE, so I would prefer not to have to dynamically create these loops.
View 1 RepliesI have created an bar of thumbnails and added as3 code so that the imagebar scrolls to the right or left depending where the mouse pointer is located. However once you reach the end or beginning of the clip it just stops. How can I make it loop to beginning or end (depending on which way you're scrolling?? I'm very new to Flash and as3 as a warning.
Here is my code so far.
MovieClip(root).addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(event:Event):void{if (MovieClip(root).mouseX > 600 && mouseX < 800 && mouseY > 450){imgBar.nextFrame();
}if (MovieClip(root).mouseX > 800 && mouseY > 450){imgBar.nextFrame();
imgBar.nextFrame();
}if (MovieClip(root).mouseX < 300 && mouseX >100 && mouseY > 450){imgBar.prevFrame();
}if (MovieClip(root).mouseX < 100 && mouseY > 450){imgBar.prevFrame();imgBar.prevFrame();}}
I got a Flash AS2 website and I need to get all the buttons inside an instancied movieclip (to define an specific property for each one). I've been searching for an hour or more, but I just got solutions for AS3

I am trying to coding a part of a program which is creating different listener for the same object by using a for, but the problem is that the result for all of them is the same, In the following you can find my code:
for( var i:int=0;i<10;i++){
var obj = new MyClass();
obj.y = i*30;
[code]...
My goal of writing the code above is, by clicking on the first obj, the program writes 0 in output, by clicking on second one, writes 1 and so on, but this code give me 10 for all the objects.I should add that no matter there is an obj or not in myOtherMovieClip area, by clicking in that area, I got the same value.
Trying to convert a project from as2 to as3. Take this simple function:
Code:
function add_tf(contents:String,target_clr:uint,font_size:Number,a_type:Number,a_thickness:Number,a_sharpness:Number,target_width:Number, target_height:Number) {
var format:TextFormat=new TextFormat ;
var tf:TextField=new TextField ;

How do I reference the newly created textfield into a for loop?
This is really holding me up, so I hope someone can help me fast. I need to store each value of my for loop in a separate instance of my movieclip, but the movieclip only seems to pick up the last value of the loop.
Why is this and can I do this any other way apart from storing the value in a textfield or creating a loop within the movieclip?
i have a for loop and i want to do things with it:

I've got a movieClip that's scrolling across the stage that loops nicely (kinda like the many cloud animations out there).
I've set the clip up to stop it's scrolling on a rollOver, and start up again on the rollOut.
My problem is that after the rollOut the loop doesn't work. The movieClip just keeps travelling.
Code:
blue.onEnterFrame = function() {
blue._x -= 2;
if (blue._x<=-0) {

I have an .fla with multiple movieclips. For most of these, as one finishes, it calls the next with code like _parent.nextmovieclip_mc.play(); on that next movieclip (the one to be played), the first frame is blank with actionscript stop(); so that it won't begin at the start of the movie. nearly every movieclip plays just once and this has worked fine. I have run into a snag because I want *one* of these to loop 20 times, and I'm trying to do a loop, but either it plays once and stops or never plays. this clip should not begin at the outset of the movie, and so like the others above, it has a blank keyframe with a stop(); for frame 1

this["b" + i].visible=true
}
I am wondering whether I can set all b1,...b8 movieclip to visible except b7?should I identify each movieclip to visible each or a script can be written in 1 line?
Why cant i do this in actionscript 3

Is there another way to achieve the same results?
I've got a load of videos
var ns1:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
container1.compMa.theVideo.attachVideo(ns1);
ns1.play("sukh_diesel.flv", 1);
var ns2:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
container2.compMa.theVideo.attachVideo(ns2);
ns2.play("sukh_beneath.flv", 1);
And 4 more, which I've left out to be concise. I want to pause them with
function pauseVid(){
this.ns1.pause();
for(i=1;i<7;i++){
this["ns"+i]pause();
}}
The commented out line:
this.ns1.pause()
works, but when I try it in a loop it can't access it?

I have a movie clip (mc_moviegroup) which is made of a group of many dynamic text fields. I want to loop through the dynamic text field children of mc_moviegroup and pull out their text values in a string. Does a movie clip have a property which gives the number of it's children movieclips?

I've got a form with radio buttons which were duplicated depending on the response from the database. However, when they are selected (even though they have the same group name) it is possible to select more than one. I've got round this problem by adding the selected one to a blank array and removing it from an array with all the possible radio buttons in. This then enables me to get the selected value and use it, and However, the other values (which are in another array) still show as selected (i.e. the dot is in the middle of the button) which isnt good. I've set up a loop which should go through each value in the "unclicked" array and set the radiobutton corresponding to it to unselected. The code I have is below:
for (i=0; i < unclicked.length; i++)
{
_root.RB[i].radioButtoni.selected = false;
