ActionScript 2.0 :: Shorter Notation For Zillion OnRollOver's?
Oct 5, 2004
I have 10 or 100 or 1000 mc's on stage that do exactly the same on an onRollOver event and on an onRollOut event, what's the easiest way of writing this ? let's assume that the mc's are called mc1 to mc100, could it be done with an array and/or for statement ? Cause I'm used to old fashioned coding, I'm used not to try to cut corners So it kind of restricts my thinking a bit at times. So, do I need to start with an onRollOver event handler for each button in order to make Flash notice the onRollOver event for each button ?

I have a movieClip, which in turn has a nested movieClip. I need each of these to have thier own onRollOver events, the parent movieClip is OK, but the event never fires for the nested movieClip. My code goes something like this:
[Code]...
is output when mcOne is rolled over, as it should, but nothing is output when mcTwo is moused over.

I have 16 tweens happening at the same time which I've done using actionscript. Its basically the same thing happening 16 times with slight changes to coordinates and mc names in each tween.
Is there a way of creating an array with a list of mc names which can just be dropped in to a template? Below in my code:

I am working on a flash site where I want the buttons to animate on Rollover and reverse animation on Rollout. Here is the code I am using at the moment.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
this.nextFrame();
} else {
this.prevFrame();
}
This works fine but I would like to go one further. Is there a way for me to make the Rollout animation shorter?
So if the button animation is 60 frames long can the Rollout animation occur from say frame 30 on Rollout? The play head needs to jump to frame 30 on Rollout and I have no idea how.
Of course if the playhead is only on frame 20 then on Rollout the animation will reverse from frame 20. (not from frame 30).
This way the Rollover animation will be the focus and the Rollout is...well simply a Rollout animation. Short and sharp.

In the following example the first trace gives me the xml data at the node, but the second trace does not. This is AS3. How would I use a variable to do the same as inline dot notation?
var x:String = "animXML.home.version";
trace(animXML.home.version); // this works
trace([x]); // this does not

I have a dataGrid with a custom itemRenderer. Everytime I tab at least two times on the dataGrid, the cell below the one I taped gets selected. This doesn't happen if I uncomment the code in the method saveBackDataGridContent().The second problem is that if the Line is shorter than the entered text, a horizontalScrollBar will get active, although I set setStyle("horizontalScrollPolicy", "off");...
CustomRenderer.mxml:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" initialize="dataService.send()">

I have some variables in the format: var like6Y:Number = 50; Later I am dynamically setting some: num=6; Then I am trying to use that num to get the variable like6Y: like+6+Y I know that is totally wrong but I seem to remember you could use some kind of object notation to accomplish this: ["like"+num+"Y"] Or something along those lines. But I can't remember how to do it.

I have the following: ActionScript Code: if ((player.charVelocity < 9.0180945396304027e-26 && player.charVelocity > -9.0180945396304027e-26)) it seems to be firing as soon as charVelocity gets between 1 and -1. Am I writing that correctly? I assume it would work as I copied the syntax it was outputting for the variable value (which is set to 'int')

I am trying to create a number of movie clips in my main movie but I don't seem to be able to access these movies using array notation and the 'this' keyword. Here's some example code in a main timeline.
var i=0;
createEmptyMovieClip("clip"+1,0);
trace(this["clip"+i]);
////undefined - why?????
var clip=createEmptyMovieClip("clip_holder",1);
clip.createEmptyMovieClip("clip"+i,0);
trace(clip_holder["clip"+i]);
/////_level0.clip_holder.clip0.
This is ok. What's wrong with this["clip"+i] ?

I know that a dynamic mc can be referenced using array notation
viz: myArray['someName'+i]
My question is ... can mcs that have been placed on the stage and given instance names be referenced in some similar way? If I have placed 10 mc's with different instance names eg mg1, mg2, mg3 etc, can I reference them using array referencing?

I've created a custom class to represent a monster in a game. The class definition has "public class Monster extends Object". I'd like to know if there's a way to initialize the object using object literal notation. For example, this works ok:
[Code]...
I get this error: "Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type Monster." Is there a way to do this? I'd rather NOT have to call the Monster's class initializer each time, because in the actual code there are a lot more variables in the monster class than just those three, and it's kinda unwieldy to pass a dozen long strings into the new() function.

I've got a calculator that i created in as2 that converts different units of measurement. However, right now it always converts the numbers into a decimal number like 0.33333333 or 450.72. How in the world would i convert these decimal numbers to scientific notation? For example, say i have a number: 12,700. Expressed in scientific notation, this would be 1.27x10^4.I hope there is an easy way to make flash convert to such a number system? I know its easy to round numbers in decimal, but have never worked with scientific notation before.

I have attached a simple test fla.I am trying to centralize my code in all my movies using dot notation instead of spreading my code all over the place. It never works, I must be doing something wrong.The test .fla has a movieclip with a timeline animation. I used the linkage identifier to name it 'reload' AND named the instance 'reload'.
_root.reload.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
The pointer doesnt even change to a hand.

Is there any reason why Vector would not be supported in CS3?
I have the following line:
private var pageRequests:Vector.<PageRequest>;
I'm getting a compiler error on the "." but that seems to be the defacto Vector notation. If for some reason this isn't currently supported in my version of CS3, then does anyone know how I can update the actionscript library to allow it?

I just started an open source project @ Google Code. I came up with this simple notation for a recent project. I have since used it on several projects and am happy to share it with anyone else who might benefit. I could also use a hand with the documentation and also features if anyone is interested in helping out. Take a look and feel free to provide feedback. [URL]

I have a class Inhabitant with a property skin which is of type DisplayObject.
Within Inhabitant I need to access the x and y properties of skin using this method:
this["someProperty"];
Rather than:
this.someProperty;
This is fine with properties defined within Inhabitant but I'm not sure how I could do this for a property of skin. This obviously doesn't work but it might give you an idea of what I'm trying to do:
this["skin.x"];
The reason behind requiring this notation is that I have a function which I can parse a String though that will represent a property:
public function addTokenable(property:String):void
{
if(!isTokenable(property))
_tokenables[property] = true;
}
And then a related getter that will return a representation of this instance of Inhabitant as a String:
public function get token():String
{
_token = "class:" + getQualifiedClassName(this).split("::").join(".");

Right now my stage dimensions are 980 X 800 px. I need to cut or "crop out" the bottom portion of the footer because its height is too long. So I changed the stage dimensions to 980 X 600 px (and changed the corresponding dimensions in the embed tag in the index.html file to match). Doing this seems to cut out the bottom but at the same time adds space to the top and seems to distort the overall spacing. Is there a simple way to crop out the bottom of the stage (just like cropping out a section of a photo)?
