I have five buttons on stage and I simply want to trace "1" when I click the first button and trace "2" when I click the second button and so on.I am always getting the last number and cannot figure out, how to store the values.
View 4 RepliesI have 15 sets of x and y values, that should be stored together. I was thinking I could have an array, holding 15 other arrays, each holding the x and y value? Is that a valid way to do this? Also, is there a way to create those arrays holding the x and y, dynamically, so they just get numbered?
MainArray[
subArray[x1, y1];
subArray[x2, y2];

Obviously, above is not correct AS. Is this even a way to do this? Are there other much better ways?
for (var s = 0; s<mainSections.length; s++) {//grabbing the fabric types Handblocks,Screenprints,and Wovens
for (var i = 0; i<subSection.length; i++) { //grabbing each fabric design of the fabric

I've been trying to figure out a solution for a problem.. Which is really bugging me. The only thing I could think of that has potential to possibly work is being able to store bitmap names in an array.. Like this example(which doesn't work):
Code:
var hairBitmapA:Array = ["hair_1_1", "hair_1_2"];
var i:uint = 1;
var hairBitmap:hairBitmapA[i] = new hairBitmapA[i](0,0);
The idea of this is simple, although not correct, is there a way that I can do what I'm trying to do?
I'm making a portfolio, it has a large amount of images, one by work, (maybe there are 25) and they are put in a horizontal band, the images all have the same height, but not he same width, and they load an external MC of each work.So I want to create an array storing all this values, _width, and MC to load.
Secondly I have a frame like a stroke of the picture, the frame is in the center of the band of images, and there are two arrows, one to move on the band to the left, and other to the right. The thing is that when I push the arrow the band must move 15 px on left or right, and te frame must adapt (with easing) to the _width of the image.And one more thing, there will be many many images in a future, so I would like that a user if it's holding the left or the right arrow for a medium/long time it could make the band of images to go faster from one to another. I think it's so simple of changing the speed of the movement, what I don`t kwow is how to know if the button is pressed for a long-meidum time.
This is really holding me up, so I hope someone can help me fast. I need to store each value of my for loop in a separate instance of my movieclip, but the movieclip only seems to pick up the last value of the loop.
Why is this and can I do this any other way apart from storing the value in a textfield or creating a loop within the movieclip?

View 3 RepliesI have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop. The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure. Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly. My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this: While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc. How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.

I have a movie clip (mc_moviegroup) which is made of a group of many dynamic text fields. I want to loop through the dynamic text field children of mc_moviegroup and pull out their text values in a string. Does a movie clip have a property which gives the number of it's children movieclips?
View 2 RepliesI have this little loop that creates buttons. My aim is to change value of variable 'thevalue' on everytime button is pressed, first button should give value 0, second 1, third 2 and so on.
Code:
for (jo=0; jo<xmlData.firstChild.childNodes.length; jo++) {
value1= xmlData.firstChild.childNodes[jo].attributes.value;
_root.attachMovie("button", jo, (1000-jo), {_x:20, _y:20+(jo*20)});

I have a bunch of thumb mc instances on my stage, using the same mc symbol. They're all sized differently so the widths(which are same as heights) vary.I want to be able to access their width value from an array independent of all the scaling I'm doing with rollovers. That is, I need to have each mc instance's original width accessible from anywhere in my code.The simplest way to do this is to hard code an array, like:
var Twidth:Array = new Array();
Twidth[0] = "33";
Twidth[1] = "45";[code]....
But since I have 22 thumbs and several portfolios, and want the option of changing their original sizes on the stage, I want to create the array above on the fly using information in a loop. For instance, I already have a loop in a function called generateThumbs(). Here's what I've tried:
for (var i = 0; i<total; i++) {
Twidth = new Array();
Twidth[i] = this["thumb_mc"+i]._width;[code]....
for trace on the first method, replacing 'i' with the key I want (Twidth[2]):
undefined
undefined
45
undefined
undefined
As you can see, this gives me non-indexed non-delimited value for the whole loop (the actual in my real movie is 22). There's no length or array because its actually just one value. Entering a number in the key will display a bunch of undefined with one defined. I have no way of extracting that one key without getting all the other undefined values.my question is: How do I put 'this["thumb_mc"+i]._width' values into a loop with each value indexed for the rest of my functions to access?
I have a array of categories, for e.g.
var categoryArray = new Array('value1', 'value2', 'value3');
I would like to loop and create new arrays from each of the values in the categoryArray I tried...
for(var i=0;i<=categoryArray.length-1;i++){
this[categoryArray[i]] = new Array();
}
value1[0] = "dsfsdf";
trace(value1[0]);
It doesn't seem to work.
DISCLAIMER: relatively new to Flex/AS3, I might be missing something obvious. After doing some research it appears that using the for(var property:String in object) does not guarantee the enumeration order of properties, however it doesn't say anything about modifying the VALUE that property points to as changing the for...in loop.

As a solution I can create a temp object to store the data while doing the loop on the original object, and then replace the original object with the modified data, but I'd like to know what exactly is going on.
So my question is, does the value of object property modify the looping order of the for...in construct? And if so, should it or is this a bug?

i got this perlinnoise called function and movieclip.filter = [displacementMapFilter] inside a onEnterFrame and it's eating me at 100 percent. are there any substitutions for making it much less processor intensive?
