Now, the duplication works great, all books get placed well, BUT I'm having trouble with setting the variable id inside of the newly attached movieclip _root.shelf["book" +j] so I can later on use it on my onRelease function.
I have attached a duplicate movie script action on a button to create a new copy of the clip (F900) with each press. This seems to work well; however, I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to create the script to remove the duplicated movie clipHere is the script I am using for the duplication and I did also attach the fla file:on (release) { _root.F900.duplicateMovieClip ("F900_"+"x", x ); setProperty ("F900_"+"x", _x, 300);setProperty ("F900_"+"x", _y, 200); x++;}Once I figure this out I would like to add different aircraft to it but that is not terribly important right now.
I use this code on frame 1:[code]and it works great, but the flakes get duplicated even when i go to frame 2. What I would like is code to get rid of the movie clip.
I created a button that duplicates a movie clip, I want the user to be able to drag the duplicated movie clip. Right now, it duplicates the movie clip but when I try to drag it, it moves the first movie clip (the one being duplicated) instead of the one which was duplicated.
The user can at first drag the movie clip. When released, the duplicateMovieClip command runs, leaving a new ham movie clip in the position the first is dragged to.When I click and drag the first ham movie click again, the duplicateMovieClip runs again but REPLACES the previous generated movie clip. I added x and x++ in an attempt to give the movie clip duplication a different name every time, but this doesn't solve it.How do I change this code so that a NEW ham_mc is created every time, rather than overwriting the old one.
I have a duplicated movie clip and that layer is inside a mask. I would like to mask that but it doesn't work. I have uploaded the fla so you can take a look.
I have created a MovieClip in the library that consist of buttons, graphics and other MovieClips. When the movie starts I attach this movie clip to a newly createdEmptyMovieclip like so
[Code]....
So all that works fine, except when I add a onRelease event to a duplicated MovieClip it does not seem to respond. So I was wondering if the duplicateMovieClip function does not copy the button inside the original MovieClip. The code for the button is
It changes the text in 'i_lotteryball1' text field aswell as 'i_lotteryball2' text field with the value of '_global.text2' How can I update each text field with different values.When I try to change the instance name of the text field inside 'i_lotteryball2' to 'd_text2', it changes the 'i_lotteryball1' text field instance name aswell to 'd_text2'!
I have an image gallery where the enlarged image wont close. Its really frustrating! after clicking the thumb the larger image loads into fullImage_mc, and I would like to click the enlarged image and close it. What am I doing wrong? Please have a look at the source files and set me straight[code]...
error in my movie clip. The code is working just fine. The effects are just what I needed. I have a set of 24 buttons, executing 24 URLs when clicked. buttons are responding on rollover, onRollout and onRelease states.But the problem is when I click the butoons randomly and very fast, multiple buttons remins in onRelease state (as if more than one button has been selected). I do not undetastand wheather this a problem with my coding or problem with my settinf in flash or a bug in flash itself (i'm too small to detect a bug in flash though!!). My setting are: actionscript 1. fps 30.
I am currently trying to make a photo gallery using flash. I have made a scrolling menu and want to incorperate it into the photo gallery, but, my photo gallery uses the onRelease function. My scrolling menu requires the movie clips to be inside another movie clip called panel. Is there a way to add the onRelease function to a movie clip INSIDE another movie clip? Here is the code for the scrolling menu:
i am trying to do a survey and i have 3 buttons, each one represent an answer each button is a movie and i am wondering how to call a movie from my library to a empty movie clip called container when onRelease is used
I am asigning names to moviclips from a XML file... this code working fine and creating 2 movieclips named dot1 and dot2. What I need use a array or variable which can hold this movieclips name. So I can use this code like this way...
_root["box"+i].onRelease or whatever you want am i right?So with that said, that targets all the duplicated clips. So is it possible to just target certain ones? like the 3rd, 9th etc? [EDIT] Since the duplicated boxes should be called box1, box2 etc, I have tried something like:
Im working on a rock climbing game, and used duplicateMovieClip() to make all the snow. When the character gets to the top of the mountain, the movie goes to the next scene, but the duplicated snow is still there. Look through the .fla at [URL]
When you duplicate a movieclip or generate one through AS hittest will allways return true. I tried to make a selection script,by putting the code below into the frame. It makes a rectangle to select charclip movieclips (duplicated and numbered, therefor the for loop) to select them, like when you select icons on a desktop. Unfortunately, it will select all charclips wether theyre inside the rectangle or not. I tried to confirm this behaviour by making a simple hittest script like the one discribed on the kirupa actionscript tutorial, with a moviecript and a duplicated one. The moviescript was detected when it actually hit it, the duplicated one was detected all the time. How do I circumvent this? Should I ducplicate in an existing movieclip or something?
i am currently making a game , and for some reason the hittest on my duplicated movie clips isnt working i know how to do them , and know it should be working , because it works on one of the movie clips but none of the others so im guessing it something to do with depth?
just wondering if theres a way to pass variables to a duplicated movie.Ill be creating duplicate movies very fast (about 20 per second)and want them each to have differrent variables to work with.duplicating with that , and i want to pass 3 variables to the new movie clipdot.duplicateMovieClip("dot"+currdot, this.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x: xpos, _y:ypos});
i'm trying to have the text and position changed of a duplicated movie containing a text button. does any one knows how this would be possible?so you have the movie "options" thats being duplicated.in the movie you have the text named sub [code]probably basic actionscripting, but i've been trying more than an hour without any result.
I am trying to create a hitTest between two duplicated objects. The code below is on a bullet. Bullets hit "bad" MCs that are called bad + x (X being a number from 22 - 40). I can't get it to work. I belive that I am not referencing the duplicated MCs correctly
Code: for (x=22; x<42; x++) { if (this.hitTest("_root.bad" + x)) {
