ActionScript 2.0 :: Working With Checkbox Component - Getting Errors?
Sep 13, 2011
I know my way around basic Flash, I can work with script as long as I have script assist for basic things like getting URLs and linking buttons etc. I'm trying to create a "don't show this page again" on the opening page of a mini-site using a checkbox component and so far, I've dragged a checkbox onto the stage from the components window and only been able to change its label to "don't show again" from "checkbox" in the parameters window. I've given it the instance name of 'showAgainCheckBox' and I have this code on the component layer first frame looking like this.
Code:
Select allshowAgainCheckBox.addEventListener( Mouse.Click, onshowAgainClick );
function onShowAgainClick( e:MouseEvent ):void {
// do something about the click here
}
Of course the code is filled with errors from what I get of the compiler message. I've been trying to get the logic. So I might need like a 'checkbox component for dummies' kinda explanation.

This PHP contact form works well and is very simple. I have one checkbox in the fla file. However, it keeps displaying 'No' in the email message field, whether the checkbox is selected or not. It should display 'Yes' if the checkbox is selected, and 'No' if the checkbox is unselected.Here is the PHP:
PHP Code:/DESTINATION--------------------------
$destination="***@***.com";

I have a project with 100 pages or so. Each of this pages will have a label name. I am trying to create a toogle button that will ad the frane name to an array by using "currentLabel". If the user unchecks the box, then remove "curentLabel" from the array. At the end, there will be a "review" section where the items on the array will show in a comboBox so that the user can navigate to each of these pages.
I already have the combo bit working:
flaggedList.dataProvider = new DataProvider(flaggedQuestion);
flaggedList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);
function changeHandler(event:Event):void
[Code]....
I tested it by using a button that added the "currentLabel" to the "flaggedQuestion" array. But is the user clicks on the button more than once on the same page, it keeps adding the same label (as it should). Thats why I figure using a checkBox component that the user can check and uncheck would be an ideal solution. The problem I have with checkboxes, is that it is not keeping the "check" on the box is the user navigates back and forward thru the sections...

Relative newcomer to Flash, and I have (what should be) a simple question: how does one go about making the CS3 checkbox component larger? I'm not talking about the bounding box (checkbox + label); I'm talking about the checkbox itself. I've looked all over the place, and I'm stunned that this doesn't appear to be as easy as I thought.

I have a component with checkboxes, the checkboxes are bound to booleans in the main code:
<mx:CheckBox id="LyrClearAll" selected="{Application.application.bLyrClearAll}"/>
This works fine for the checkboxes that dont change unless a user interacts with them again. My problem appears because I want to uncheck one of the boxes everytime the component is closed. (I know something other than a checkbox would work better, but Im trying to keep things consistent in this component.)
I have tried setting the bound Boolean variable to false, and Ive tried setting the checkbox.selected value to false. Neither are working, everytime I open the component the checkbox is still checked.
private function makeLyrsPopUp(evt:MouseEvent):void
{
var panelLyr:popUpLayers = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, popUpLayers, false) as popUpLayers;

I'm trying to call a movieclip dependent on which checkboxes are selected. The user selects checkboxes and the presses a button to call the movie. How do I set the function for the button to check the values (true or false) of the checkboxes to decide which movie it is to play. Each different combination of checkbox selections calls a different movie. I need guidance on how to do this. Do I need to do something specific with the checkboxes? As of now I have something like this..
function dressUp ():Void {
if (head1=true && top1=true && bottom1=true) {
outfit_MC.gotoAndPlay (1);

I'm trying to make selectable thumbnail images for a touch screen app where the user can touch the thumbnail image and turn a CheckBox on or off to select/deselect it.
The thumbnail images measure 100x100 pixels, and I want the CheckBox to be in the upper right hand corner of each image. When I go to the Adobe AS3 help site, it says that it should be possible to increase the size of the CheckBox hit area in one of two ways:
1) Select the component on the Stage and use the Free Transform Tool or any of the Modify > Transform commands.
2) Use the setSize() method or applicable properties of the CheckBox class.
According to this same site, if you increase the size of the instance, you also increase the size of the hit area.
I've tried both of these, and none expand the hit area over the entire thumbnail. In fact, neither seems to increase the size of the hit area at all. In order to select a particular thumbnail, the user still has to hit the CheckBox.

I am trying to assign a few variables to checkboxes that I am adding dynamically to the stage. There are like 40 checkboxes added dynamically and I need to keep track of a few variables for each checkbox.It will only let me assign a "name" to the checkbox. If I try something else like "Group" (see code), then I get a runtime error:[code]

I want to use the checkbox component in my flash app, but it's really tiny. According to this article 1, the size and scale parameters only affect the invisible bounding box. Does anyone know of a quick solution on how to scale up (enlarge) the visual area of the checkbox component in flash CS3?

I'm working on a mini-site and there is this opening page with some text bla bla and I need to give the viewer the 'don't show this again' option. I've discovered the components in Flash (yoo-hoo) and so far I've dragged a checkbox to the stage and only been able to change its label in the parameters in components inspector.
The opening page is in scene 1 and I just need the movie to play scene 2 frame 1 if the checkbox is clicked. How do I go about this? I'm very confused with event listeners etc. Could anyone give me a "for dummies" walk through?

I have a Flex repeater that has a complex item template. When a checkbox is clicked, I need to toggle the visibility of a sibling button contained in the same repeater template. Since I can't add binding expressions to event handlers, I can't pass in the repeater item's index.
How can I access sibling components inside a repeater item?

I have an MXML component that includes a .as file with
<fx:Script source="myfile.as" />
Running asdoc throws a whole bunch of errors like
"Error: The private attribute may be used only on class property definitions."
"Error: The public attribute can only be used inside a package."
Solution 1 is to move the AS code into the MXML file. Kind of defeats the objective of using external .as files for MXML components in the first place, so really a last resort option. Code inside a mxml file is messy (I really don't want logic mixed in with mxml), and would also require using the < !--- ---> asdoc syntax.
Solution 2 is to have the MXML component inherit from a normal class file. That would mean no private members in the base class, only internal (meaning a separate package for the component to be safe) or protected. This would make things tedious to say the least.
Are there any other work-arounds or possibly a beta/nightly version of asdoc that fixes the problem? I am using the Flex 4.1.0.16076 SDK, the "latest production quality release".
Update:Just tried using asdoc from the svn trunk, (4.5.0 rev. 16942) and the problem persists.

I've found out that when publishing with Flash 8 my previous MX's working fla files, I get multiple errors.I've had a look at the Export publishing settings and I think they're all correct: - Exporting version: 8- AS Version: 1.0So, I guess it must be a silly thing I'm doing wrong but after a long while I haven't been able to know what's wrong. Perhaps AS compatibility is not that accurate?The most common error I get is:"A ')' or ',' was expected" or"An unexpected '}' was found"(I'm using Spanish Flash 8, so I don't know if this is the exact message you're given in English Flash 8) The 'supposed to be wrong' code seems to be in lines like[AS].posicion = posicion+eval("abc" add i)+gap;abc=eval("_parent._parent.abc" add _parent.n)[/AS]and I even get a "Declaration must be inside a on/onClipEvent controller" here:[AS]._xscale=abc*1.4;[/AS] ...while ALL of this code worked perfectly in Flash MX, I get up to 104 errors in Flash 8

I have this streaming video player with an asyncErrorHandler function which isn't working correctly.In Flash player 10 I get no errors, but in Flash player 9 I'll get a popup window with the error message that shows up in my output window when I test on my local machine.
Error #2044: Unhandled AsyncErrorEvent:. text=Error #2095: flash.net.NetConnection was unable to invoke callback onBWDone. error=ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property onBWDone not found on src.display.VideoClass and there is no default value.

I have a checkbox in a component:
<s:CheckBox id="myCB_1" />
In my main.mxml I need to test for the state of the checkbox. I originally had all my code in main.mxml, but it was getting really long, and I thought that it was better practice to break my code into components. Also, I have other projects where the same concept will apply.I have the following function :
private function checkAlarms(currentTime:Date):void
{
if (!breakfastAlarmSounded)[code]....
doesn't work. Someone mentioned that I need to create a variable in my component that refers to the id (myCB_1) of checkbox, but I don't really understand or know how to do that, and they didn't elaborate.How do I test for the status of the CheckBox "myCB_1" in the component from within my main.mxml?

I'm trying to make a flash animation but I'm getting these two errors: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property enabled through a reference with static type Class. (line 4) 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class. (line 5) This is the code I'm using:
Code: Select allimport flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
stop();
buti.enabled;
buti.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pla);
function pla(e:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
My animation is a initial photo that turns around and becomes a black backgroud (were I'll add some text), now what I want is that the photo won't animate until I do a click in it. I used a Layer with a transparent image and converted it to a button and the export name is buti. The other to layers were converted to movie clips named preto and foto.
