ActionScript 2.0 :: Scope - _root In Gallery.swf Doesn't Work Within Index.swf?
Oct 27, 2006
This is a situation: i have a index.swf in which i have holder movieclip in which i load gallery.swf (where i load pictures in it's holder mc). The thing is i used _root in gallery.swf so when i publish it separately it works, but it doesn't work within index.swf. I suppose there is a scope problem where _root adresses _root timeline of index.swf instead of gallery.swf when index.swf is published and gallery.swf loaded inside. I tried to solve this by putting: Code: this._lockroot=true; inside of gallery.swf but now my Flash 8 player just freezes when index.swf is published and gallery.swf loaded into it but i have no idea why? What would be other solution for this problem?

I feel like I'm missing something obvious here, but I'm unable to add a textfield to any movieclip that I've attached to _root. Here's a generic example:
_root.attachMovie("generic_mc", "clip1", this.getNextHighestDepth());
rect1._x = 200;
rect1._y = 200;

what i need to do is create an instance of an input text box when a button or key is pressed. However as of yet i've been unable to no matter what i try, for some reasons i guess it's properties don't carry over the same way a static object does.

I'm working on my website which is a portfolio site, to showcase my work I have a basic XML image gallery which does 1 of 3 things loads a large photo, goes to a frame with a video player, or goes to another frame with a gallery of web design or flash work i've done. when a thumb is clicked i trace the indexOf(event.target) of the thumbnail clicked (all thumbnails are placed into an array).
the problem is that for some reason randomly the index will not be found and return -1, but then other times it will find the correct index and work properly. i don't know what the inconstancy is thats causing this to occur

know if the index effect the scope of an object because I am creating a game and for some reason, I get an error like below
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at com.objects::Torret/updateObject()
at com.objects::EngineApi/loop()
[Code].....
updateObject is the loop for all my objects. I have one centralized loop and in that loop it calls on an array of objects that have been placed on the stage. all of them containing the method updateObject. to update the status of the object. addGameChild() is a encapsulated addChild() , that not only adds the object to the stage, but places it in a array so it's updateObject() method can be called on. it is also used to make it easier for garbage collection.

I have a simple object defined by an object literal, and have a couple functions assigned to this object. Inside the functions, I try to access global variables, and it only gets undefined. The Flex debugger tells me the variables are just right up the scope tree.Yes, I know I can access Thing by using 'this', that doesn't solve my scope issue though.Project Flex Compiler Settings: Flex SDK 3.4, Require Flash Player 10.x.Example:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" creationComplete="Thing.bling();">
<mx:Script>

I have several SWFs that I need to work when loaded into another container SWF file as well as work when they are stand-alone SWF files. Because of this, in circumstances where a movieClip is being talked to from another MovieClip I am using _parent as opposed to _root. It has been working fine until now. I have one circumstance that only works with _root and will not work with _parent. _root.content_mc.anim_mc.screenShots_mc.gotoAndSto p(2); Obvously this works fine as a stand alone but not of course once loaded into the container movie.

I'm having some weirdness with a project that I'm doing in IE. Long story short, I've got a basic shell that loads in external SWFs based on user feedback. Once those SWFs get loaded in, they execute functions from the shell (_root) movie. It works great in Firefox, but immediately breaks (no way) in IE. The movie gets loaded in, but none of the functions run.
I suspect it has something to do with security, because, for a variety of reasons, I have to load the SWFs from their absolute location, rather than their relative location. When I test it locally (but loading the movies from their absolute, live location), everything still works, but I get that damn security warning that reads like this:

I decided to try to use setInterval for myanimation, which is just a mouse trail.However, I'm trying to get teh mouse trail to be a dynamic mask.In my previous swf this was achieved by using a holder mc with the animation inside and then using this as the mask. But this time I just canpt seem to hit on the right way to get it to work. The code I am using for the mouse trail is:
Code:
var i:Number = 0;
var myInt:Number;
var t:MovieClip;[code].....
in the function, but now the trail doesn't resize and the mask still doesn't work.

-I have an object with a function:
var AppMethod : Object = {
testFunction : function() { trace(this) }
}
-In the constructor of a separate class named "Vec", I call testFunction in the AppMethod object by:
NameSpace.AppMethod['testFunction']();
-After I create an instance of Vec, flash traces the AppMethod object. I thought it would trace the Vec object? At least that how it worked in javascript. The keyword "this" doesn't change scope in Actionscript 3? Is there a keyword that will trace the Vec object instead of the AppMethod object?

I have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410

my code is:
on (release) { BMI_SUM = (Number(WEIGHT_INPUT.text) / Number(HEIGHT_INPUT.text * HEIGHT_INPUT.text)); _root.BMI_FINAL.text = BMI_SUM; }
the BMI_FINAL.text box always displays NaN, and when traced it says Undefined and the code looks sound but i cant get it to work.

I am writing code to order the tab on multiple tags like "img","Panel","LinkButton",...and pie charts. when I run my flash program, the tab indexing does not work at all. it just works on pie chart and "link button" tags, not on "img","Panel","Group" tags. I also have tried to "enable tab" on those fields , but no help.on the other hand when I disable tab on the pie chart,and link button, still the tab is enabled.

I have one folder called "Gallery" consists of the following 4 Files/Folder. It works fine on my Virtual Machine. I copied the "Gallery" folder to my PC and tried. but it doesn't show any images on my PC. It doesn't throw any error either. It throws an error if the location of images is not correct. What could be the problem? I tried a lot but fail to understand.
Folder "Gallery" contains the following:
1) Images (Folder)
2) Gallery.swf
3) GalleryMain.as
4) Gallery.xml

I followed someone's tutorial on CWD.dk and made this image gallery scroller. I have attached the file downloaded from the website. Basically, when you click the buttons, it will scroll the images. However, it doesn't ease in or out, and I would like to know how to make it ease in and out. I've been trying for the last 2 hours with no success. Anyway, the file is too large to attach, so here is the direct link. [URL]
