ActionScript 2.0 :: Pop Up Window Using AttachMovie Method
May 18, 2005
I'm trying to create a pop up window using the AttachMovie method and i want it to act like a coventional pop up window should do, i.e. it should be draggable and it should have a close button.
I have no problem getting the window to pop up and drag but when i try to use the close button it doesn't work or visa versa.

public function mc1():Void {
for (i=0; i<9; i++) {
c = c+30;
var mc_new = my_clip.attachMovie("mc_bread", "bread_"+i, my_clip.getNextHighestDepth()+1, {_x:80, _y:385-c});
mc_new._visible = false;
bread_1._visible = true;
}}
When compiled the code gives error:
There is no property with the name 'bread_1'.

I am creating a gallery that loads the images from the library. The only method that I managed to do this is by creating movie clips that contain each of those images and then calling those movie clips from the library using the .attachMovie method because this method only works for movie clips and not instances of other library items such as actual images.
Is there anyway in ActionScript to create an instance of an image asset in the library?

basically i am attaching a movie dynamically with the attachmovie method like so:
Code:
for(var y = 0; y < rowSize; y++) {
for(var x = 0; x < colSize; x++) {
attachMovie("box", "box" + count, count);
[code]....
now for each attachmovie they have a Event handler, rollover,rollout, but, on the release event holder I want it to load in some XML like so:
Code:
path.onRelease = path.onReleaseOutside = function(){
//alot of my nifty code that will be skipped for elongated post purposes
//but here is where im getting a error
[code]....
I thought at first having the XML declared in the loop does make it just loop through 15 times ( length of my nodes) and just display the last XML item, but when i declare it before it, it does NOTHING !!!!!!!!!! it doesnt even display a damn thing, soon as i put it within my loop it displayed atleast something?

I have a slight issue with my application I'm working on. Whenever I attach new "windows" to the stage (using attachMovie), it seems that the window that is currently on top allows the user to click the buttons and components on the window behind it. I'm using Flash CS3 Professional, but exporting to AS2.0/Flash8.

I have a class called Animal that has a method foo() and I call it out within the Animal class.
Code:
protected function foo():void
{
trace("Animal");
}
I also have a class called Cat that extends Animal and overrides the method foo()
Code:
override protected function foo():void
{
trace("Cat");
}
However when calling the function foo() from the superclass it traces out Animal not Cat (using a Cat object).How can I make superclass call out methods in the subclass?

two classes, both extend EventDispatcher. Static method in 1st class calls instance method in 2nd event not getting caught. [code]also, since dispatchEvent() is an instance method, is there any way of calling it without first instantiating the class? i expect not.

So I have this AIR app coded in flex where I have several floating native windows and what I want is to detect when a user clicks outside of a window so that I can close it. (I don't want to use the PopupManager Class and would want to use the native windows).
My question is, is there a way to detect a click outside of a spark window, or alternativley is there some root container/object which is a parent to all the native windows so that a click inside any native window would bubble up to it? (Apparently the stage object of the root windowed application is not that object since each window is not a child of the stage for the root application).

I created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]

I'm trying to create a pop up window in Flash which also fades the background window to 75% black. When the user closes the pop up window, I'd like for the parent window to un-fade back to normal. Is this possible? I can do the first half of it and make the background window fade to 75% black. The difficult thing is making it fade back to normal when the user closes the pop up window.My thoughts are that I need to attach some code to the browser's built in close window button. It might require some javascript or a fscommand. I'm not sure.

ACTUALLY i just thought of another one so now i have two. sorry. hope you don't mind. i get sidetracked rather easily. before i start, a quick nota bene. i'm a complete newcomer to flash so my questions are very simpleminded. not much of a challenge i'm afraid.
1. can i put a link in my movie that will close the window?
2. can i put a link in my movie that will open a new window of a specific size, and without the menu-buttons of explorer?

Go to [URL]. Click on "The Photos". It will pop up in a fullscreen window. Try resizing the window and you'll notice that the background is vector and it looks like the scale mode is set to "showAll". BUT, the photos look like they have a separate scale mode set to "noScale". They don't resize.

I have a window, the window I programmatically change the size of the window depending on the current view it is displaying. The user cannot resize the window them self, but they can maximize the window.
The problem is if the view is changed while it is maximized, the maximized window size changes, I do not want this, I want it to only change the size of the non-maximized window.
My first thought is to just check if the window is maximized, and if so do not resize it...but the issue there is then when it is restored at a different view then when it was maximized it will not restore to the new size it should be.

I have a Adobe Air app (AS3, not Flex) that has 2 windows. When I click away from them onto another desktop program, I get an "Deactivate" Event (as you would expect).When I click on say Window#1 I get an "Activate" Event (as you would expect).But when I go from Window#1 to Window#2, I get nothing. And I believe this is because the Air application is still the active program, Just a Different Window.
But I have the need to know when I go from 1 window to another.The horrible solutions I have come up with so far is to have an onEnterFrame and check if the current window is the active window. But I would much prefer to do it a much better way that such a hack.I have gone though Stage, NativeApplication and Native Window Events and none of them do what I need. Can anyone point me to another Event I may have overlooked?
