Mar 23, 2010It's me again and I'm running into a problem. So, I have this movie clip that is nested inside multiple movie clips. I want to tell Flash to perform an action when that movie clip hits another movie clip in the main timeline. It's just collision detection for a game using the hitTestObject code. I was thinking of using MovieClip(root), but that won't work since it's nested so much.

ActionScript 2.0 :: FMX: Get Reference To Clicked On Movie Clip?
Aug 31, 2005I normally write javascript code, so I wonder how to do this. In JS "Microsoft IS" you'll write code like this:
document.onclick = func;
function func()
{
var obj = event.srcElement; //And there I have reference to the object;
}
The graphic designer creates flash drawings and then converts whatever objects to movieclips. Then passes them over to me. All these "mc" need the same action applied to them. So I don't need to know how many they are or their names.

Jan 28, 2009I have been struggling with what I suppose is a very simple issue: I am importing content into my application via a text file, this all works fine. I have about 10 different movie clips on the parent timeline that I have hidden (dc_mc.visible = false.So what I need to do is take one of the variable names that I've got from my text file and use its value to "turn on" one of these hidden movie clips.So I'm trying stuff like:
var directory = e.target.data.directory; // Grabs the data, sets var
var raceNameButton:String = directory+"_mc"; // Set data into new var
raceNamesButton.visible = true; // display movie clip with var name

ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Reference A Movie Clip Array Via For Loop
Feb 1, 2007I have this problem since many weeks ago, I can't figure out how to resolve it. My partial code is:

for(j=0; j < drop.length; j++) {
temp2 = eval(drop[j]);

I send to the function a movie clip that I use for drag and drop, so when I drop this function is called. The problem is that of the three rectangles that I use for contain the others, only the last senses the drop target.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference Child/parent Movie Clips With Event Handlers?
Jan 13, 2010I am wondering how to correctly reference child/parent movie clips when creating event handlers? I have a button within a movie clip, which is within a movie clip.This is what my handler looks like right now:
this.DropMenus.DMSeats.ButtonSeats.addEventListener("click",SeatsOver) ;
The button instance name is ButtonSeats Problem is, I get this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Also, if I were to move the vent listener directly into the movie clip where the button is located, how could I reference the parent/ parent timeline(the main timeline)? Am I correct to understand that .this refers only to the current clip?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Compiler Is Throwing That 1000: Ambiguous Reference Error For Any Reference ?
Sep 3, 2007I'm having this frustrating error showing up and I have no idea why. Let me show you my classes and see if you can spot anything wrong.
First, here's my ILode interface:
ActionScript Code:
package com.schelterstudios.lodeSystem.flash.lodescode].....
So the problem I'm having is the compiler is throwing that 1000: Ambiguous reference error for any reference to instance.priority or instance.label. Why??? Instance is typed to IFlexLodeInstance, and IFlexLodeInstance lists method signatures of priority and label getters, and it inherits ILode, which lists method signatures for priority and label setters. What can I do to get the compiler to stop complaining?
Flash :: Reference The Default `this` Reference In Actionscript3 From An External Package?
Jul 7, 2011My code is an external .as file. Google provides this code on their demo, which contains the this keyword:
[Code]...
Notice that I have 4 calls to console.log. The first 3 fire, but after the new GATracker statement, the 4th does not fire. I have a feeling that I'm overriding the entire package with the object created from new GATracker when I should be passing a different context. I believe the correct context I should pass is whatever this defaults to when not inside of a package/external file, I assume it references the main stage object.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference A Movie Clip With "button" + Event.target.name?
Sep 29, 2009Basically, I want a speaker (movie clip) to turn off if an answer is correct. I have several text boxes and don't want to write a separate function for each one.Here's what I have so far:

function textHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void{

obviously it doesn't work. It sees speakerName as a string value.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Movie - The Last Frame Of The Movie Code Execute And Second Movie File Open Up And Start
Dec 3, 2009I'm currently making an animation which will eventually exceed the 16,000 frame limit (don't ask haha), so, short of making two movies and having to just start up the next one, what is the code for loading a movie? I presume they need to be in the same directory? So basically all I want is on the last frame of the movie the code executes and the second movie file opens up and starts. I guess I'd want the current movie to close, too.

boxClickedin.field1.text = "set_this_text"
