I have a flex application that has a home button. I need to reset the application when this button is clicked. I can't use navigateToURL or ExternalInterface.call("window.location.reload"); as its not acceptable to reload the swf file.
View 5 RepliesI have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.
View 3 RepliesI used a preloader to play an external movie that loops. Both files are uploaded to a site. When I open the preloader in my browser the first time, everything works fine. The preloader loads correctly and plays the external movie automatically, which continues to loop correctly. So no problems so far.
Now, here's where problems begins:
If I refresh the browser or close it, and try to view the preloader/external movie again, nothing gets shown. I can manually play the external movie by right-clicking and selecting Play from the menu.
The only other way I can view the preloader/external movie again is if I delete the preloader from the cache and refresh/restart the browser.
My external movie does not have a stop in the first frame and it is uneditable so I can't add that in. However, the preloader should start playing the external movie when it is in the cache.
Here is the script in the preloader:
Frame 1:
Code:
mcLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
loadListener = new Object ();
mcLoader.addListener(loadListener);

is it possible to get data from mysql database and post it to a flash movie dynamically without refreshing browser?
View 6 RepliesJust new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

View 1 Repliesim making an image recignition app. for a kiosk and im trying to figure out a way to make the movie start over if it hasnt been touched after a certain amount of time. i tried to use a timer class but it doesnt seem to be working the way i want it to.
View 1 Repliesreset in google yields only its use for timers.However I have code bg.reset() which I suppose puts the background back to the beginning of its timeline.

View 1 Replies I have an avatar that's made up of several child movie clip sink points such as head, arm, pants, etc. I'm trying to be able to swap out items, such as a new hat, new gun, etc dynamically based on the user's selection.
I'm able to modify a regular movie clip in AS3, but I've now moved to having a avatar that's composed of several labeled animations such as "walk" "idle" "jump", etc. The problem is, once I modify the avatar, and do a gotoAndStop("walk"), the avatar reloads all the original assets that were created when the avatar was rigged up.
Sounds strange, but let me explain. What the user sees: Loading the page, color swatches fade in and slide over into place, row by row. Once in place, user can drag and drop swatches around, place side-by-side, etc. The script necessary to attach to a button so that all swatches can be reset back into place where they were, and not generate a replay of the initial movie clip from the beginning. (a goto and play is not what I'm looking for) Here's my code so far:

I'm working on a project for my class using flash as2. I want it to be able to, when you click on a button, it drops a movie clip down the screen, essentially just adding _y to it, but then when it reaches 300y coordinate it resets the movieclip to its original position so that you can click the button and replay the same function. I'm not sure if this would be create empty movie clip each time you release button. I'm quite lost in this area so i dont have any actionscript to show, I really dont know where to begin. <3
View 9 RepliesWith out getting into a ton of background I am wondering if there is a command that will reset all the variables in a swf at once with out having to do them individually?
I've googled and searched my books and can't find anything. Another option I could see is having the current flash reload, that would set everything back to the start but I couldn't find how to do that either.
Anyone know?
I have a flash file that has frame 1, 2, 3. And below that is a Continuous Layer that has an OK button. (If I go to frame 1/2/3 the button is still there)This button calls a javascript

getURL("javascript:command('check',1)","_self");

I've got some coding to create buttons into an array, and on press of these buttons the function should remove something from another array and remove the last one of the line, so far the coding is working for the first removal, however thereafter the other buttons stay there I think it's to do with the line in bold but I cant put my finger on what's wrong with it! The trace's I've set look plausible...
function removeList (event:MouseEvent):void{
myArray.splice(0,1);
list_text.text=myArray.join("");

I'm having a problem refreshing an xml file. I am bringing it in through an HTTP service component and putting it into a bindable array _cattArr, that I am using as the dataprovider for a grid.When someone adds an item to the datagrid, it saves to the same xml file. Then I close the window, reopen it and don't see the item that has been added.It is writing to the xml file, because when I restart the flex app, the item has been added, it's just not refreshing it. I have tried to resend the httpservice, but still no luck. What is the correct process for doing this?

Is there a way to refresh a component or an application back to its initial state? I have an accordion navigator that stays on the most recently selected index even if I log out. Right now, my log out function takes me back to the login page which is at state(1). If I log back in and go into the accordion, it is on the last tab I had viewed.I would like to be able to clear any data from the controls inside the nav and reset the nav back to its default. I thought something like,
public function logout():void{
currentState = "NotLoggedIn"
myAccordion.initialize(); }
would work but nothing happens. This is done in Flex 4.I know I can make a huge loop clearing each control individually and setting the selectedIndex of the accordion to 0.
I am hardly getting experienced on Actionscript3 but I sometimes get stuck.I want to use complex if function. what I am trying to say is;if, gezegenler.rotation not equal to 0 or 120 or 60 info text = ajdusting.
ActionScript Code:
else if (geegenler.rotation !==0||120||60){
bilgi.text = "adjusting....";}
is this usage possible or not Also, use stage as an event listener to update the textbox. But the event is mouse event and mouse move.. are there any muuch reliable ways doing this? Because when I do not move my mouse it does not change.
[Code]...
However, after an unpredictable amount of time it will stop refreshing - appearing as if it has frozen. But escaping the app out of fullscreen mode will cause it to instantly revive into action as if nothing had happened. Returning to fullscreen then will once again "freeze" after time, but its not technically freezing due to memory issues, it just won't continue to display unless escaped.
View 2 RepliesThe preloader works fine in all browsers except in IE if you reload (refresh) the webpage the preloader stops at 0. It works OK the first time if your cache is cleared but not the second.
I've published directly from Flash and using same html page.
I want to make a web radio and i want to have a box displaying the current song playing and the song that is going to be loaded after.
In fact i need a solution to the first one as the second is the same.
The streaming provider is going to provide me with a txt file that is going to be refreshed every time the song changes .
So we have a txt file changing it's contents , now how can i make the swf refreshing it self to read the new changed txt file and displaying it ?
The best solution would be the swf refreshing every time the txt changes but i believe this isn't possible. So how can i at least refresh it let's say every 2 minutes or so ?
I cannot seem to get a swf to get refreshed data from an external txt file on a localhost (I am using Xampp on a mac), whereas the very simple dynamic textboxes that I have load the data easily from my regular hard drive folder.
View 3 RepliesAlright. I've made a tool in flash that calculates the value of money in comparison to the value of goods avaliable. however, the values that my program is supposed to calculate wont update when variables are changed, how do i fix this?
[code]...
As a brief explanation, I have 4 sets of buttons (the code for the first two sets is in there), They Create goods that are used to back paper currency (amtGood and amtMon are the amount of goods and money). To calculate the dollar value of goods, the total money is devided by the total amount of goods. However it won't calculate anything but the original 10/10
I have a project where I have code inside a MC on the main timeline that loads XML via a php file on the server. Once the data is loaded, it sends commands to other MCs and works just fine.However, I need to refresh this XML info every 5 seconds or so. I have tried several things such as interval code and pause code, but the farthest I got was that it paused the initial clip for 5 seconds, then ran the script once, but never again. Or it refreshed, but got stuck on the first frame of the clip.Now I am thinking I would be better off NOT having the code inside the MC, but on the main timeline and just having the action span the course of the main timeline. That way, the call to the php can be refreshed from any frame of the main timeline. Does that sound right?
View 3 RepliesI am building an application that uses a Shared Object that is shared (ironically) between 3 separate applications. 1 application listens for updates, and the others update the app. The problem I am having is that I need the main application to be able to detect changes to the Shared Object. Unfortunately there seems to be no events to listen for that are not for 'remote objects'. Because of this I created a timer that gets a new local instance of the shared object every X seconds.I just call the following before I read or write to the sharedObject:[code]This is causing a CPU Hiccup every 3 seconds and bogging down the system. so all this being said, does anyone know of a clean way to refresh a copy of the sharedobject without creating a brand new instance of it
