ActionScript 2.0 :: Setting Slideshow To MovieClips In Array
Sep 19, 2007
I already have an array set up with a navigation and tween on the MC's when the navigation is pressed. My question is, how would I apply a simple automated play to it. The functions are already there that make the navigation bring up my corresponding MC, i just need some autoplay to it.
Here is my source:
Code:
this.scrollIcons = function(p_offset:Number) {
// Scrolls the icon list
this.setIcon(this.currentIcon + p_offset);
[Code] .....

I've got an image slideshow, and a preloader for each individual image. I want the preloader BAR to be dynamically assigned the width of the banner, which is defined in a variable. Here are my preloader settings and function call:
ActionScript Code:
/****PRELOADER SETTINGS****/
progressBar._width = myVars["BANNER_WIDTH"];
progressBar._height = 2;
progressBar._visible = false;
progressBar._xscale = 0;
[Code] .....
Basically, what is happening is. The "progressBar" width is being defined as the variable BANNER_WIDTH, but when the _xscale property is run in my preloading function, it doesn't care what the banner width is. So what I want to say is. I want you to _xscale according to what is being loaded, but I don't want your _xscale to exceed BANNER_WIDTH's width. I don't know how to do this and keep the preloader accurate. I can only save as CS4, CS5.

I have some variables created on the main timeline and a mc called options which will be where those variables can be manipulated. A way I've tried to this is by creating a first array(array1) and populating it will all the variable names found on the main timeline, and another array(array2) containing the values of the variables the user has changed(which are displayed on some dynamic text fields). To make these changes, an "apply" button is pressed which will set the values found in array2 to the variables in array1.[code]How would you do this so that var1, var2... are updated properly according to the values found in array2?And because array2 contains strings(read from dynamic textfields), how do you deal with that since var1 and var2 are numbers?

I have a library of about 70 movie clips of company logos that fade in and fade out...I wanted to make a sort of 'random slideshow' of all the move clips, so I went ahead and copied the actionscript code for a timer that would (ideally) delay the time that it takes for the next clip to load.
Problem is, the timer starts up first thing rather than after a clip has played, and the clips then play at the same time. The actionscript is on frame one of the Flash movie (there are about 70 clips, for the example I'm working on I'm just using 3 to start with):
stop();
function wait() {
for (i=25; i<=27 {
_root.attachMovie("my"+i+"_clip","new"+i+"clip", i);
clearInterval(myTimer);
i++;
}}
myTimer = setInterval(wait, 4000);

I have 6 movie clip objects and I want to assign them all a value for when the user clicks on them. This value is to be hidden from the user but I will later use it with an additional software to capture the value. I assume this will be done by using a dynamic text field for when the movie clip is pressed.

I want to make the kirupa slideshow that loads in movieclips instead of images. This is a huge multimedia project and the movieclips will each have a lot of text and graphics in them. I want it to autoplay AND have manual controls like "back" and "next".
I'm not too familiar with autoplay, except in a timeline. How can I make this work if everything is in a movieclip on the first frame? Do I need to use the timeline or scenes or can it be done with out them?
to clarify... I have 20 buttons at the top. Clicking each one of them will open a different movieclip into an empty mc in the middle of the stage. I have back, next and autoplay buttons at the bottom. I want the user to be able to manually control the movies AND to autoplay.

Is there a way to do this? I have a bunch of photos scrolling left and right and I need to reduce the jerkiness of the scrolling motion somehow (so it works well on slower machines). Is there another way to do this via AS3?

Is there anyway to make a certain MC in a movie with low quality while the rest are all high quality? Like, I got this movie right, but I used a pixel font for the body text, and no matter what I try the text is ALWAYS antialiased.. I need to be Aliased and the only way to do that is to make the movie low quality.. but that messes up everything else...Is there a setting to keep the text low quality? I am using (fonts for flash).

I have been hacking together two different tutorials to create a menu with changing images, and some animating text. Everything looks great, except the menuitems, which i try to resize dynamically depending on the menuitem-movieclip-contained dynamictext. When i resize this movieclip, the whole movieclip scales, and everything looks odd.
this is my first flash project on my own, so be nice :-)

I'm working on a Flash game (AS3) and have come to a point where I need to change the value of a global boolean variable from within a movieclip. After searching all over I have yet to find a solution. Essentially, the problem is that I have a movieclip that contains a section of animation for my game. When this movieclip is told to begin its animation, it checks these global variables to see which of six animations to play. When it finishes any of these animations, I need to set the associated variable and increase the score.

What I am trying to do I think is pretty simple.
Consider this code:
ActionScript Code:
var imageContainter:String;
var fileName:String;
[Code]....
This code appears to be working. I'm dynamically creating a bunch of movieclips that each contain an image. The also code stacks each clip on top of each other.
I'd like to be able to now set the alpha or visibility of all of those movieclips to 0 or false, except for the first one. I have other code that will set specific movieclips to display based on mouseEvents.
How do I refer to all of them? And should I be using arrays as well?

Im writing an application that parses xml to display a menu system in Flash. The same loop that grabs the xml creates a new movie clip for each node(menuitem). I need to set a delay between the duplicated movie clips so they appear one after another rather than all at the same time. Ive tried a few different things (interval and timer) but havent got it to work.
Code:
var item_spacing = 60;
var item_count = 0;
var item_count_next = 0;
var newy = 0;
_global.itemNumber = "";
function CreateMenu(menu_xml){

I received help on this site on this info-graphic im doing and the solution was to use an "array" which im not familiar with at all. the person that helped me added the following code that worked:
var city_arr:Array = new Array("louisville");//filll that array with all nedded cities//make all the boxes invisible at startfor (i=0;i<city_arr.length;i++){ var [code]...
since i dont know how to use arrays im stuck. i need to add at least 30 more cities to my info-graphic but don't know how to use the naming conventions of an array.Only one of the houses works (when you click on it a pop-up appears, is draggable and has an x to close the pop-up)

I have an array which is filled up when someone clicks on a button.
something like this:
Code:
var ThumbArray:Array = new Array();
//on click, adds new value like this
ThumbArray[ThumbArray.length] = [productid.text, viewID.text, price.text]
I limit it to a maximum of 14 values.I now need to know a good way to set a variable equal to the value of a row of the array - but if there is no value then it becomes "0"
So this is my code so far
Code:
theVariables.varMat1 = ThumbArray[0][1];
theVariables.varMat2 = ThumbArray[1][1];
theVariables.varMat3 = ThumbArray[2][1];
theVariables.varMat4 = ThumbArray[3][1];

I have an array that I have set up that would go with a series of movie clips, and I am trying to combine them with functions that upload xml pictures--firstImage(), secondImage(), and so forth.
Here is the array that I have:
Code:
var currentButtonId:Number = 0;
var buttons:Array = [btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4, btn5, btn6];
function buttonRelease() {
[Code]....
It enables and disables the movieclips depending on which one is clicked. But I want to make the xml functions (firstImage(), secondImage()...) go with the buttons in sequence. So once btn1 gets pressed the firstImage() xml function gets called.

I have a simple slideshow with images beside each other with a mask on top of them. I currently have it where I can click on the images and they will move with a switch/case statement. I'm puzzled on how I can do it so simple so I can use a next button so the images will be clickable for other reasons!
Here is my code:
Code: Select all
import flash.display.Sprite;

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: I have as3 script that successfully displays an array of MovieClips, the MCs have variable xy positions, and in some cases they overlap each other. I have a function within the array that I can't quite figure out. Here's what I'd like the function to do: When the cursor rolls over a particular MC displayed by the array,I'd like that MC to be brought to the front of the others. This is my script:
var myArray:Array = new Array(); for(var i:int=0; i<8; i++) { myArray[i]= new myImage();addChild(myArray[i]);myArray[i].x = 180*i;myArray[i].y = 330;myArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER , overlap);
function overlap (event:MouseEvent):void
{trace('function triggered on image ' + i);

I'm trying to create a dynamic text field which displays the first number contained in an array named _root.arr. I set var to "_root.arr[0]" to catch the first number in the array. Unfortunately it doesn't work because it shows just a blank text field.
I've also noticed that if I just set var to "_root.arr" all the numbers contained in the array will be displayed separeted by a comma.
So, how can I just display the first number in the array?

I'm having trouble defining the width of an mc based on an entry in an array.
Here's what I have...
var arr_obama:Array = new Array();
arr_obama[0] = {Name:"mc_obama1" , Frame:"obama1", Width:"34"};
arr_obama[1] = {Name:"mc_obama2" , Frame:"obama2", Width:"143"};
arr_obama[2] = {Name:"mc_obama3" , Frame:"obama3", Width:"23"};
[Code]....
Basically what I want is when you rollover the mc obamaxx it makes the mc_bar the width as defined in the Width entry in the array.

I've creating a drag and drop card game in AS 2.0 and need to set the cards randomly in set positions every time the game is played. no two cards can be in the same space, so the taken position needs to be taken out of the array.I am not concerned about the Y value just X . I think this needs to be an array containing the positions. then using slice to remove the value from the array. I'm not sure how to assigned the array position to the movie clip.
