ActionScript 2.0 :: Why Is A New MovieClip Not Being Created

Sep 5, 2006

this should be a pretty simple one. I am trying to dynamically generate a movie clip, attach a movie clip from the library and then animate a tween but for some reason, even though the name is being generated dynamically to be different every time and each new MC is put on a different depth, the first movie clip disappears once a new one is generated. Here's my code:

In part of my actionscript i'm using: thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth()); to create a seperate movieclips for ewach image in my xml file.

I have two character to choose from, so I created two movieClip to contain the character max and luna. When I choose the desired one, it's added to a hero MovieClip. It works, the hero acts as a container and it is referred for the movements by the keyboard event. Now I want to target hero.character.gotoAndPlay for the animation in the timeline of the character movieClip in the Main class, but I can't do that. I tried to trace the instance character.name but it won't do the trick it throw the same error :

ActionScript 2.0 :: Put A Rollover On A Dynamically Created Movieclip?

May 7, 2009

How do I put a rollover on a dynamically created movieclip?

I have several movieclips being placed inside a container movieclip and I need them to have onRollOver, onRollOut and onRelease events. The way I usually target and do this...

_root.mcContainerName.mcName.onRollOver = function() {
_root.mcContainerName.mcName.gotoAndStop("over");
}

...does not seem to work for whatever reason. However, if I put a named instance of the movieclip on the stage myself and target it in exactly the same way (with similar syntax), the rollover works fine.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Referencing Movieclip Created In Another Function?

Oct 14, 2009

wrote a couple of small games using AS 2.0. One of the things I found easiest about AS 2.0 is that a MovieClip created using _root. attachMovieClip() inside of one function was accessible to every other function. For instance:

Code:

function AddClip() {
TheClip = _root.attachMovie("Object", "TheClip"+ClipCount, _root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:30, _y:30})
}[code]....

This causes an error, because the MovieClip variable was declared inside of a function and when the function ended, the MovieClip variable was erased. Is there any way of doing this without declaring the MovieClip variable outside of the function? I want to be able to create an unknown amount of these movieclips on the fly, so I can't just declare them outside of the function.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Completely Remove A Movieclip That Is Created As A New Class?

Mar 6, 2009

how do I completely remove a movieclip that is created as a new class.I have an event listener that does a removeChild like this

e.target.parent.removeChild(e.target);

is this enough or do I have to 'null' the object? I can't just do 'e.target = null' because the property is read only. Will the internal garbage collection do the rest for me if I have no references somewhere else?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Applying Physics To Movieclip Created With CreateEmptyMovieClip?

Jun 14, 2009

As the title suggests i want to apply physics (gravity mainly) to a line drawn with the curser using the createEmptyMovieClip method.Below is the code in the main frame (sorry its a bit long), what I'm trying to do is make something like crayon physics (i know it will be difficult).So far i can draw lines and make certain objects ( a ball for example) be affected by gravity, but when I try to make the drawn lines be affected by gravity it stuffs up.he first line drawn is produced in the wrong position, (it should be at mouse point but isn't) and you can't draw any subsequent lines. This problem doesnt exist when i remove the gravityBasically what i want is that each line that is drawn can have actions assigned to it... (so i can add gravity and unique properties for different line types)

//force settings
//Drawing tools
_global.general = 0x0000FF;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Created MovieClip Never Displayed On Stage

Jul 15, 2009

I'm trying to build a Flash-based controller application to go on the web interface for the rack-mounted units which my current employer builds.  The interface is defined in an XML file which is parsed and processed when the Flash application is started.

I've created some library symbols which act as various controls - sliders, toggle buttons, etc.  I can add these fine to the stage. What I would like to do is group them together in a container of some sort so that I can show and hide them en masse without having to loop through all the controls. All library symbols I'm using are linked to ActionScript classes.

If I use a symbol I created earlier and added to the library as this container, everything works fine and the controls display correctly on the stage.

However, if I dynamically create a MovieClip and use that as the container, it never appears on the stage.  The code is identical in both cases except for the class names being used.  I am calling addChild() on the MovieClip instance to add the controls to the MovieClip, and then call addChild on the document class to add the MovieClip to the stage.  As I mentioned above, this all works perfectly if I use a pre-created symbol from the library as the container.[code]...

Php :: Save A Toggle State That Is Created Using A MovieClip In Flash?

Aug 23, 2010

I have MovieClips on my Flash Stage that when clicked on--they toggle ON/OFF. My goal is that when a user clicks either ON/OFF--then leaves the flash website--another user can visit the site--and see that state of that MovieClip was either left ON/OFF.

I would need a way that when a user toggles ON/OFF--that state is saved in a variable--passed onto PHP--saved in an XML file--and then when that is done--Flash calls a function to update--to read the XML file--see if it needs to update the ON/OFF state of the MovieClip toggle button.

Multiple people would be able to go to this flash site--and toggle (ON/OFF) the objects on the stage. When more than one person is toggling--those people should instantly see objects being toggled (ON/OFF).

Actionscript 3 :: Access The Methods Of A Dynamically Created Movieclip?

Jun 28, 2011

How do I access the methods of a dynamically created movieclip/object?

For simplicity sake I didn't post code on how I dynamically created the movieclip. Instead, assume its already created. It is an object. It is called field_2. Below it is referenced by using getChildByName('field_' + field.id);

Check_box_component.as

public var testVar:String = 'test';
public function testReturn()
{
return 'value returned';

[Code]...

When I trace temp.testReturn, why does it show "function Function() {}" instead of "value returned"?

This link below helped me get this to this point.

Flash :: CreateEmptyMovieClip Inside Another Dynamically Created MovieClip?

Apr 1, 2012

I'm trying to create a movieclip and load a "frame" image inside of it, then create another movieclip inside of the first, and then load another picture inside of the second. Something like this:

var thumbFrame;
var thumbPicture;
thumbFrame = container_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(thumbFrameName, 1);[code]..........

But it doesn't seem to work the way I want: the "thumbPicture" doesn't appear on top of the "thumbFrame" as I expected... only the "thumbFrame" shows (with it's image succesfully loaded). Am I missing something?

EDIT: If I comment this: //thumbFrame.loadMovie("thumbFrame.png");

The thumbPicture.jpg shows inside of the first movieclip, so maybe the issue is with the .loadMovie?
