ActionScript 2.0 :: Swap Image Based On Variable?
Apr 13, 2011
What I'm looking to do is have an image swapped with another depending on the value of a variable, but I'd also like it to choose the image automatically.[code]...
what i want it to do is when a function is called if the var == 01 it will automatically swap that image with pic_01, if the var == 02 it will swap it with pic_02. However is there a way of doing this without having to actually write an if statement for each of the pics as there is going to be around 700 of them.

Code:
moviclip.swapDepths(movieclip._y);
and it worked perfectly.
but I decided that I wanted to continue the development of the game in AS3 (so that it will be more up to date and I could learn the new syntax), and I found the equivalent to swapDepths is setChildIndex. so I followed the new rules and came up with this code:Code: setChildIndex(character_mc, character_mc.y);but, sadly it does not work the same. the game becomes extremely laggy and almost unresponsive, but becomes normal again if I remove the code. So, my question is how can I add a similar code for this to work properly.

Like any of it's simple, but here's what I've got...I'm doing my loadVars, everything's going peachy, but now I want to swap the variable. I've got a bunch of vars in a text file, and here's how I'm doing it right now...
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.name2;
}
Now, this works ok, but with as many vars as I'm planning for, I'd like something that I didn't have to make a ton of frames just to have it run.
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.(name('prevnum'+1));
}
How do I do this?

I have a gallery featuring black & white images. I want the black & white image to change to a color version if the user rolls over the image. I've currently got the bw images to load into my flash with AS2 & XML. How do I get the image to change on rollover using XML?I figured out how to have the image if clicked go to a URL but am stuck on how to swap images instead. Can I have two images called out in the XML?
ACTIONSCRIPT
Code:
Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
/////////////////
// Loading XML //
/////////////////
myXML = new XML();

Again I have a basic FLASH script problem. I would really appreciate help if someone has time. Can someone please help me out with the simple fla script for the following scenario:
1) 4 small images on the left. When mouse rolls over each one a separate larger image on the right changes. (similar i guess to a gallery with thumbnails).
2) If user likes what they see on image on right - they then click on that small image which takes them to a new page.
I can not for the life of me find the simple example. I have tried (using movie clip with four different frames and stop on each one - trying to call that from main - but then get stuck.) I'm really new to flash - really enjoying it - but getting stumped along the way!

I have a class definition as file. In it a variable gets passed to into a function (parameters). Then I want to use the name of this function to swapDepths with another movieclip.
Code:
private function alphaZero(clipToSwap) {
trace(clipToSwap+"+clipToSwap");

I currently have this button set to change the color of little dots on it to black onRollover. However, in the photoshop button sent by the client, the dots look much better. How do i use actionscript to swap one movie clip for another in a smooth fade, like it's currently being told now?
clicker.onRollOver = function() {
this.look.dotarrow.colorTo(000000, 10);
this.look.dotarrow._alpha = 80;

I am pretty new to flash, so I apologize if I have posted in the wrong area or this is a redundant post, but I have plenty of experience with Photoshop, 3d rendering programs, and some experience with Dreamweaver.
I would like to create an "about us" portion of a website similar to: [URL]. It looks as though it is a series of disjointed swap images, but there must be some Flash involved, and if you click on the image of each person it also acts as a hyperlink. So, my question, could anyone point me in the correct direction of how I would create this for my website and to what degree of difficulty is involved.

I am trying to swap out one image for another in a Flash animation. On a mouse over, the want the new image (appb_mc) to appear OVER the existing image (appa_mc).I used the following code, but the new image keeps flashing. I am assuming it is because the new image is appearing OVER the existing image. If I have the new image appear other than over the existing image, it works fine. What can I do to make it work properly? These images need to be within the Flash file and not in an array.Actionscript I am using:
appb_mc.visible = false;
function showGraphic1(event:MouseEvent):void

I'm a beginner in flash actionscript. I want to basically swap images using actionscript. So if you click on a thumbnail, the main big image will change corresponding to the thumbnail being clicked. I don't want to use a simple on click go to and play actionscript... I'll try to paint a picture of what I'm trying to achieve.
There is a background image, middle ground and foreground image... people will have a selection of thumbnails to chose from to change these images (so they are creating their own big picture) Once the user clicks on a thumbnail for the background, the main image will change corresponding to the thumbnail.. and the same for middleground image and foreground image. I can acheive this in director using lingo but I am required to use flash and actionscript.

I have a project in which I have an opening scene of a main image and 8 thumbnail buttons. This opening scene is pretty basic, as the thumbnails would link to a new scene or frame label (however I build it). This 2nd scene or instance in the timeline is where I would display another large image, and 6 new thumnail images that, upon rollover, would swap the large main image with the large version of the active thumbnail.
Basically I have a main 'menu' of category thumbnails that link to an instance in the timeline that displays the initial large image for that category, and allows the user to mouseover the other thumbnails to see the large images, and then click to go to a specific URL for more information. The trouble I have with my rusty, limited AS knowledge is how to effeciently write the AS so that the image swap works. I quickly ran into a wall trying to acomplish this using a very OLD method that would require a LOT of jumping around the timeline.

I have 170 images that I need to place on the same place on the left side of the stage and and have them move across the stage one at a time, increase in size and then fade out after 10 sec. The sequence then continues for all 169 images. My initial thoughts are to animate the first image inside a movie clip, duplicate it and swap the image. When I tried this it worked fine until the image had shape tweened to the larger size (at this point the image displays for 10 sec and fades out). At the key frame at this point the image changed back to the original one. What do I need to do to make the new image visible throughout the whole movie clip when I swap the image like this? Is there a better way to produce this type of animation? I am using Flash Professional 8 and quite new to the world of Flash and Action Script.

I am building a very long and detailed flash training program. I need to get a MovieClip to goto a certain frame based on the value of a variable that is defined on a keyPress.
Here is the code:
fscommand("trapallkeys", "true");
trace(nmhho);//show the value every time this frame loads
if (nmhho == 1){
Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override.gotoAndPlay(2);
}else if (nmhho == 0){
Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override.gotoAndPlay(1);
[Code] .....
The MovieClip in question is "Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override" "nmhho" is a number variable that is already defined and set to 0 initially, on keyPress of 9 it changes to 1, and when u press it again it changes back to 0, the problem is that when the page loads the "IF" statement at the beginning does not tell the movieclip to go to the proper frame.

I have a variable defined as brushSize. Depending on the value of brushSize, I want to display text in a dynamic text field that relates to its value. For brushSize values of 3, 13, 23, 33, and 43 I'd like to display 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively. I'm not really sure where to begin here, but I have tried and failed with something like this:

If the province is zoomed IN when I click another province I want it to return to its original size and have the next province that I clicked on zoom IN. Each time I zoom a province IN I want to set a variable to the value 1 so that I can use it as an indicator to let me know the status of the other provinces. Ie: if variable ON (Ontario) has a value of 1, then when I zoom IN on Manitoba I will use an IF statement to determine that Ontario is currently zoomed in (ON has a value of 1) and will zoom Ontario out prior to zooming in Manitoba. When I zoom out Ontarion I will reset the ON variable to 0. My code for Ontario looks like this[code]...

I'm brand new to actionscript and I've decided to try and make an overhead tile scrolling game. It's been going good so far, but here is my problem:
I have the level data stored in an array, where the number represents the corresponding tile.
I have movie clips in my library called "tile_1", "tile_2", "tile_3" etc.
Anyway, what I was thinking of doing was this:
var newTileContents:("tile_"+lvlArray[i]) = new ("tile_"+lvlArray[i])();
newTile.addChild(newTileContents);
Where, if the value in the lvlArray at [i] is 2, then it will create an instance of tile_2 etc.
But I am not sure how to to type the "tile_"+lvlArray[i] bit properly.

I have a very weird idea, but i can't make it work.
Theres a Movie Clip, called "bar"
And there's a variable called "Points"
Whenever we get 2 points, the MC called "bar" is moves 1 frame.
To summarize: Whenever variable "points" increase by 2, "bar" MC's frame increase by 1.

say I want to declare a global variable in my main movie on a mouse event (button) and give it a value "functionA".
then I want to load an external .swf into a clip (with the same mouse event)
then I want some code in the loaded .swf to execute a function of the same name "functionA"
how would I code this?
this way I could load the same .swf but execute different functions depending on which button triggered the load... comprende?

How can I get a variable to change based off of a function? For instance.
var imageNumber = 1;
And when I click on the next button it kicks off roughly this function.
imageNumber ++;
Effectively adding to the image number. But it is confined only to that function. The imageNumber outside of that function didnt change. How can I get the next button to change the number outside of the function?

[Code]....
but then the parseUserRank() method can't directly return the value to userRank, so there would have to be an event dispatched when its available, then update then finally update the variable value....
