View 2 RepliesI'm trying to build a little tile editor for a game I'm about to make, but in setting up the tiles on the screen something goes wrong. Here's the code:

the trace just spits a whole bunch of 'undefined's at me. I double checked the variables once again just to be sure, and they're all right.
I'm new to Adobe Flash CS4. I'm making an animation of some fish underwater. I have 2 small fish motion tweened to follow a large fish from left to right. When I view the animation in full screen the small fish seem to be wiped off the screen at a certain point. The tween box continues to follow it's path but the symbol disappears. This only seems to happen with larger objects.

I'm making a flash lite 2.1 (AS2.0) game when i came across a very annoying, and interesting error. Took me several hours to track down.
function createUnit(spawnPoint) {
if (Math.random()<0.8) {
// Create and attach Unit to codeLine.
[code]....
Which stuffs up code that needs this.So why is attachUnit being so temperamentall?[URL]
Note: Doesn't have a problem if i add it programicaly earlier - only if a drop it on the stage.
is there a way in action to group to object so when one object is drag across the screen the other object sticks with it, im using flash btw
View 6 RepliesI can't make Flash do a gosh darn thing 'flashy', no matter how many tutorials I read, and how many demo's I see, it never seems to do what would make sense. This worked fine until I tried to plop the dynamic text box into its own movie object in the library... I've opened flash, drawn a simple dynamic text box. Set the dynamic text box's data variable to szTextBoxData (why don't text boxes just have a value property? anyways..).
Then selecting it, I convert it to a symbol (as a movie) call it DynamicTextMovie, and stuff it away into the library. Now I delete it from the layer, as I want to add it dynamically at run time. Next, on frame one of the main movie, I insert this code. (sorry for the bad formatting, limit of the forum here..)

I am trying to move a 'Shape' object across the screen. As the object moves, a copy is being left at the initial position. Almost as if only an instance of original object ahs been moved
This is not an issue for moving an image or MXML graphic. Is something wrong in setting to the move object?
The code is as follows
private var arrow:UIComponent;
private function resetAssets():void{
arrow = new UIComponent();

I'm making this banner, or FMA if you rather call it that, for a company (school assignment). I have some text fading in and out displaying the message. But I want an interactive FMA.I want to make some buttons, and when you go mouse-over on them, I want a picture to be displayed (different image for each button), WHILE the animation keeps going. Thats not the tough part.However, when the animation repeats (starts from the beginning), and if I'm holding the cursor over the button connected to the picture, the picture disappears and I have to go over the button again.

View 1 RepliesI have some code here, works fine and everything, but I was just wondering if this code is an efficient way to add an object onto the screen. I just have mc's come on depending the amount in varFromAnotherFrame. Is there a better way to do this?
var someArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:Number = 0; i < varFromAnotherFrame; i++){ if (someArray.length < 6) { var newMc:libraryMc = new libraryMc();
someArray[i] = newMc; addChild(newMc); newMc.x = -295 + (someArray.length * 80); newMc.y = -10; } else if (someArray.length > 5 && someArray.length < 12) { var newMc2:secondLibraryItem = new sisecondLibraryItem(); someArray[i] = newMc2; addChild(newMc2); newMc2.x = -775 + (someArray.length * 80); newMc2.y = -0; }}
I want to know how can I check if an object entered the screen .
View 1 RepliesI need to take a 2d object and use a point on the screen to skew the object accordingly to that point to create a point perspective.

View 3 RepliesI have a button control set up to switch my program from windowed mode to fullscreen, and back again.
This is just 2 buttons that alternate frames in a movieclip.
I was wondering if there was a way to keep the movieclip locked to the upper right corner of the program when the user switches between windowed and fullscreen modes.
The code for the buttons; if needed, is:
//Fullscreen button
on (press) { fscommand("FullScreen","True"); }on (release) { gotoAndStop(2); }
//Window button
on (press) { fscommand("FullScreen","False"); }on (release) { gotoAndStop(1); }
If you click the "FS" button inside the player for full screen, it goes to full screen, but does not scale my player. Here's my SWF embed code. I have tried it both this way and taking out the wmode line.
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("player_bitgravity_fs.swf", "flvplayer", "724", "409", "9", "black");
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");

I'm trying to debug AS3 code on production. I have no access to trace(), can't write to disk or open a socket. What I want is to display something on screen.
With AS2 I could just access _root and create a text field with my trace data.
how I can pull this off with AS3? My class extends Object, it is not a sprite and is never added to a parent display object.
I am new in flash developer. I want to set my frame at the center of the screen interdependent of screen size. but we are working on full screen view (means stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.EXACT_FIT).Logically I want one background image at back side, which cover all part of the screen, and on that background image I want to set my frame image at center of screen with fix size of (1000 X 750 px).
View 1 Repliesso i am having trouble with adding a box randomly on the screen. I have done this before and it seems like it should have a relatively easy solution. But alas, i have not been able to figure this out. This is the info: I have a box mc with exporting as Box. I have a Box Actionscript file with this code in it:
[Code]...
Nothing happens at all but there is no errors. Also i would like to keep everything in the classes.
On my previous post Adding a object randomly on the screen in as3 I explained the specifics of my situation. But I will go over it again. I have a box with a class(not my document class. I do have one called Main but this one is just an AS class referencing my box.) The classes name is Box and my MC box is exported as Box. This is the codethis is in my main file on the main timline
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, createbox);
var _box:Box = new Box;
var boxlimit:int = 2;

Just starting my first project using AS3 and using SWFObject to embed in HTML to get a full 100% width/height flash (photography site so needs to fill entire window, especially with widescreen).Is using SWFObject the best way, and what do you think the best width/height stage dimensions are?

View 2 RepliesI have a Large moveable object that can be clicked and dragged around the movie, but how can I make so that if I border off an area of the movie the objects movement is limited to those corners.
