ActionScript 2.0 :: Syntax With For Loop?
Dec 15, 2005
I've got a for loop and some fuctions working, but can't get one line of code to work. The red line below is what I'm having a hard time with. I'm calling a function called "moveit". If I insert moveit(x1, y1); then it works, and my movieclip is moved to the x and y positions that I specified for item #1. Though I want it to work for 10 items (I only have coordinates for two here, and will add the rest later).
I've searched my ActionScript book and just can't figure out what the syntax should be for calling that function.

I have an array like this:
Code:
var myData = new Array();
myData["name"] = "John";
myData["Age"] = 35;
What is the syntax to loop through and get the key and value? I have tried for each and for in but they just give me the value of "John" or "35", how can I get the key e.g. "Name" and "Age"?

I've got this loop and can't get it to work. It won't read the trace so I know the array call in my function statement is wrong but I can't see it at the moment. What am I doing wrong here? The rollover works when I write it out repetitively for the four buttons.
var btnAction:Array = new Array (oneBut, twoBut, threeBut, fourBut);
for (var i=0; i<btnAction.length; i++) {
this.menuMC.btnAction[i].onRollOver = this.menuMC.btnAction[i].onDragOver = function() {

what I'm trying to do is access the data of several movies clips, that are inside of several other movie clips: MC1.insideMC._visible=false (which works, but isn't dynamic) but dynamically with a FOR loop. I've tried: For(bullet=1; bullet<5; bullet++){ "MC"+bullet.insideMC1._visible=false (this does not work) } Does anyone know the dot notation or another way to do this?

I have a series of images loaded in via XML and assigned to "loady" movieclips. This code works fine:
Code:
_root.myMCL.loadClip(_root.myImages[0].attributes.url,_root.loady0);
_root.myMCL.loadClip(_root.myImages[1].attributes.url,_root.loady1);
_root.myMCL.loadClip(_root.myImages[2].attributes.url,_root.loady2);
_root.myMCL.loadClip(_root.myImages[3].attributes.url,_root.loady3);
[code]...
I want to replace this with a loop since I know the total amount of items (myImagesNo), but this isn't working:
Code:
for (i=0; i<_root.myImagesNo; i++) {
_root.myMCL.loadClip(_root.myImages[i].attributes.url,this["_root.loady" + i]);
}

Can anyone tell me why the following is taking 4 seconds for Flash to execute:
_moleHoles = new Array();
var countingMoleHoles:Boolean = true;
var holeCount:int = 0;
[Code].....
There are 9 object on the stage (but this number could go up or down, that is why I'm dynamically grabbing these this way). So in my test case, this loop runs 10 times.
I have narrowed it down to something to do with the following line:
if (this['moleHole' + holeCount])
Is using dynamic (array syntax) object lookup that much of a performance hit?

using action script...
stop();btn001_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage1);function showimage1(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(10);}btn002_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage2);function showimage2(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(20);}
however movie is playing without stopping to "Listen" for a Mouse CLICK. Images placed at frame 10 and 20 should appear only when CLICK'd.
This code is straight out of Classroom in a Book CS4.

I think this should be pretty simple but I have been trying to figure it out for ages. I have an xmllist that i am creating from an xml object so I just get a list of nodes, I want to target each of the page nodes using square bracket syntax like this:
xml..page[0];
but for some reason it isn't working. My xml file is loaded in and is written below.I need to be able to target the nodes numerically,
xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encode="UTF-8"?>

explain in very very basic terms (or direct me to tutorial) what is happening in this syntax:

this was part of and example on how to optimist code (posted in this forum awhile ago), specifically for replacing either:

I understand how the brackets work, and that X is a variable (I presume a Number).
I assume that '^' == 'to the power of'.
I dont understand why they are using >> or 31 at all.

This animation I'm working on has a dozen pairs of movie clips (with only two library items, one for each type in the pair) with instance names of the form "x" and "xgoal" (this is a drag and drop thing).When I'm writing AS for the "x" clip, how can I refer to its "xgoal" generally? I tried something like:goalName = this._name + "goal";And then using the goalName variable in my dot syntax (retrieving the _x coordinate for the goal clip):this.xgoal = _root.goalName._x;But, of course, that did not work. How can I get around this?

I'm porting an existing java library to actionscript and since they are both realy similar, 95% of the work is simply flipping variable and function definition around.
public int foo(int bar) {}
//converts to
public function foo(bar:int):int {}
Is there a tool to automate the transition between java syntax and actionscript? I'm not looking to compile java to swf, just transform the source code to be (often nonworking) actionscript.
