From what I understand, this should work:
[Code]...
How do I keep the cycles active, and also call a function at the end of each cycle/tween? Right now I can remove the soundHammer call back and the tween will continue to cycle, and if I remove the cycle soundHammer is called properly, but obviously it doesn't cycle anymore.
How do I execute callback functions dynamically by passing a function in as an argument to another function?
Look at this example:
Code:
package {
public class myClass extends MovieClip {
public function myClass(callback) {
[code]....
Lets say I add a callback function to be run every frame the AS2 way.
Code:
this.onEnterFrame = myFunction;
If I add another enter frame listener, will this replace the old one, or add to the old one, so both functions will run when frames are entered? And how do I remove these listeners?
I'm working with arrays in AS3 and some of the utility functions described in the livedocs such as filter() or some() would be very useful to me, if only I could pass parameters to them...
Actually, I cannot find a single example of the use of these functions with custom parameters passed to their callbacks. Everywhere, it is always used with constants ! E.g. on this page: [URL]
var arr:Array = new Array();var totalElements:uint = 100;for(var i:uint = 0; i<totalElements; i++) { arr[i] = Math.round(Math.random()*100);}function isLargerThan90(element:*, index:int, arr:Array):Boolean { return element > 90;}var highestNumbers:Array = arr.filter(isLargerThan90);trace(highestNumbers);
What I need is a kind of "isLargerThan" function with "90" as an argument's value, not as a constant. Something like
function isLargerThan(element:*, index:int, arr:Array, param:Object):Boolean { return element > (param as Number);}I find it very odd that I cannot find no mention of the way to do this on the whole WWW, because that makes these utility functions absolutely helpless in many many cases and programming with arrays a real pain...
My web application pass a javascript object to flex application using addCallback function.
when the flex application is in modal dialog in safari browser, the object in the flex application is null and when I open the flex application just in a new window, the object is passed correctly. But, I need the showmodaldialog to show the flex application.
The flex code:
ExternalInterface.addCallback( "handleEvent", handleEvent );
override public function handleEvent( event:Object ):Object {
Alert.show(String(event)); .....
When you call a method of a class inside a callback function, you can not use this object.To call the method, in javascript, I declare that variable, assign this to that, and use that inside the callback to call the method of this.In actionscript, do I have to do the same way as I do in javascript?The following code is the example to use that to call a method inside callback.Are there more simple way in actionscript?
class C {
private var that:C;
function C() {[code]......
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
class Scanner extends MovieClip
{
public var Scanner00_mc:MovieClip;
public var Scanner01_mc:MovieClip;
[Code].....
Makes sense as for the sequence, what doesn't make sense is why Tweener fail to loop back to the "fade" function ? They are suppose to be calling each other in an astable/blinking manner.
I suspect it's a scope problem but I don't know how to fix this, it seems AS2 Class doesn't know that there is a fade function within itself after the second Tweener call.
I rarely use NetStream or any video in my projects, but someone I email with was wondering this, and I have no earthly idea.
Is there any reason why the NetStream's "onMetaData" event cannot be listened to using addEventListener, but instead requires you to use a callback function?
Is it faster, avoiding the overhead of events? Is it to prevent more than one listener being attached?
I've built my web site using the ZigoEngine (mosesupposes)... I'm also calling my images dynamically from a folder.The problem is that the following code is making a conflict with the button which swithes the next image. If i remove the code, it works. However the purpose of thezigo is completely different and I can't see the connection..
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup(Shortcuts, PennerEasing, Fuse, FuseFMP)
winning designer, went about building a portfolio website. He left for Vermont and me hanging. When loaded, in browser, it will not start automatically and load the first page. When I load it up in Flash CS5.5, and preview it does not work at all, I think it is something to do with finding swf in the location. Oh, and one other thing the components that make up my portfolio works it just the main page. SO, the question is where did I do wrong? [URL] code for the main page

I'm currently working with soundmanager2 in an IE/flash context (not html5). The issue is that audio playback of mp3 content does not occur for the following case where the 'onload' callback function is defined as null OR as a function that does almost nothing.
[Code]...
I don't think this is possible, but is there a way to validate the arguments a callback accepts. For example someone passes me callback "mycallback", I want to assert it accepts an argument String.
public function addHandler(handler : Function) : void{
//pseudo code
Assert.functionAcceptsArguments(handler, String);
}
whenever I try to call the removeMovieClip function in a callback handler, it just doesn't work! Maybe I'm tired, or I've just missed something this is apparantly obvious. In my code exert below, is just a simple script that attaches a movie clip to stage (square_mc) and creates a duplicate instance. When the component button is clicked, I want the original movie clip to be deleted, but nothing happens!
Code:
this.attachMovie("square", "square_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
square_mc.duplicateMovieClip("square_mc2", this.getNextHighestDepth(),
{_x:50}) var listener:Object = new Object;[code].............
it seems to me that when you use laco tweens and callback a function, you can't pass data in that function, because the function won't wait until the tween is finished but is being carried out right away. For instance, I want to tween movieclip MC:

I have created a flex project on flash builder 4. In the MXML I have
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" creationComplete="init();"
And to check if it runs
[Code]...
The type of "for loop" in question:
for (i=1; i<5; i++) {
theClip="clip"+i;
eval(theClip).onPress = function() {
found(i); // passes the i variable to a hypothetical "found" function
}
}
"theClip" evaluates correctly, i.e. clip1, clip2, clip3, clip4.
The i inside the callback function is useless though. Every clip's onPress function will pass 4 (the last loop #) to the "found" function. I must be totally missing some basic restriction on callbacks.
I have a "Menu" button that goes to a menu page on the timeline when pressed.
The stop(); action works great.
But... if I hit the same button again, it does not return to the menu item but goes to the next timeline item and displays that page. Repeated "Menu" button hits cycle to the next timeline item. If I got to the "Home" button (first item on the timeline), then it lets me start fresh. No other buttons have this action when pressed repeatably.
My homepage contains a flash file that tweens through 4 product images. I want to program my file so that every time the user goes to the homepage, the flash cycles through the four images randomly. I thought the easiest way to so this would be to create four series of image tweens and label each, and then code the first frame of the movie to go to one of the labels at random.
View 8 RepliesI have a main movie with 2 empty movie clips on the stage. They have the instance names clip1 and clip2. I also have 10 swf files named movie1.swf, movie2.swf, movie3.swf, etc. I want to randomly load any 2 of these swf files into the 2 empty movie clips in the main movie. After the 2 swf files have been loaded, I want one of them to last 20 seconds, and then randomly load a new swf file to replace it. And the other one, after 30 seconds, will randomly load a new swf file to replace itself. And this cycle will go on & on...
I have the following actionscript:

Unfortunately, it isn't working. Is there an error with how I typed this? Or do I need to change something so it will work?
I basically want to load 2 swf files into 2 different targets, have one of them last 20 seconds & then randomly load a new swf, and have the other last 30 seconds & then randomly load a new swf. What is the correct actionscript to achieve this?
fspaiva just posted a thread with a scale script [URL] attached to a movie is attached this script :
[Code]...
when i try this script and watch the CPU monitor of the computer, after hitting one button this movie keeps eating cycles and a lot of it, meaning after the movie has adapted to it's new set scale, so tried if adding an "if" in the script could stop that :
[Code]...
but that doesn't work, the CPU keeps peaking, so my question is, should i worry about these things? if so what to edit to make that more efficient?
I have a form, with input text fields, and static text labels between each...
like this
(static) name
(input) name
(static) email
(input) email
[code]....
then a submit button. on the right hand side of all of these fields.It seems that when I press tab, instead of cycling from one input text field to the next, and then ending with the highlight on the submit button, it keeps tabing up to the "Address" line of my browser.I'd rather it tabed through each of the text fields.
I need to create a navigation scheme with a dynamic list of movieclips that cycles, the user being able to cycle through the list left or right seamlessly.For example, say there are 12 items in the list, and at any given time three of them are to be displayed, with the center one being the focus/selected item. If the user clicks on the center/focus item, it takes them to a page, no trouble. If they click on the one to the left of the focus item, the list slides right, with the clicked one becoming the new center, focus item.
So, now say that the three visible items are 10, 11, and 12 in our array. If the user clicks on number 12, the list will slide left, with number 12 becoming the focus, and the goal would be to have item number 1 become the new, right-most item in the display - thus, the visible three would be 11, 12, 1. If the user then clicked on one, the cycle would continue, making number 1 the focus and the visible items would be 12, 1, 2. This should work seamlessly at both extremes of the list.
So in one instance, I have created a single movieclip that contains all of the items in the list, plus four extra at the end, to allow the appearance of seamlessness; when the user got to the end, the entire clip jumped to the start. This works, more or less, but it's clunky and I need to find a better way.
I recently posted a .swf inside a new window with javascript. everything works fine on a PC, the movie will load on a mac. You should be able to click and drag to "spin" the object within the movie (it cycles a series of photos to give a 360 view), but when on a mac the cursor changes but images are not cycling. i'm sure it could be a number of different things but I'm unsure where to start.
View 5 RepliesI am integrating a flash module with Drupal using XMLRPC module. I am currently calling a node.save on Drupal(which creates a page in drupal), using Actionscript 2.0. On a flash button click, I am currently calling the node.save function. But ideally, I would like the function to be called first and only after the success of node.save, forward to the confirmation url. Right now, I am being forwarded to the page even without node.save being completed. I then have to refresh the page in order to see the results.

how to write a callback instead of using an event to communicate between two classes (objects) in Actionscript 3.0?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to write an IF Else statement that will check to see if a movieclip on the stage has an external SWF loaded in it that was loaded using the loadMovie command. Does the loadMovie command or the internal movieclip object have any kind of a built in function that will return a value if it has an external SWF loaded in it?
View 1 Repliesi made an example so i can explein the prob better.[code]I am making a class and if have another build in object in it. I what to add a callback to it but the inheritance is not right. I know how the set up inheritance
1) subClass.prototype.__proto__ = superClass.prototype;
2) subClass.prototype. = new superClass;
but its all messed up in my head so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction on how to get the callback to work with out messing up the LoadVars class too much
I have a Javascript API, which should be usable with GWT and Flex. Using the FABridge it is really easy to call Javascript methods from AS3 and vice versa. But when I try to register a callback to an AS3 method in my Javascript API I get stuck. Here is a short code sample:

I am pretty new to flex, so forgive me if this is an obvious question.Is there a way to open the Security.showSettings (flash.system.Security) with a callback? or at least to detect if it is currently open or not? My flex application is used for streaming audio, and is normally controlled by javascript, so I keep it hidden for normal use (via absolute positioning it off the page).
When I need microphone access I need to make the flash settings dialog visible, which works fine, I move it into view and open the dialog. When the user closes it, I need to move it back off the screen so they don't see an empty flex app sitting there after they change their settings.
