ActionScript 2.0 :: AttachMovie To Create Multiple Columns?
May 6, 2008
I have this code that I've used before to dynamically attach a movieclip to create one long list of movieclips, however for a design I'm working on I need to be able to create multiple columns of 4 (configurable) items so the 5th items get's a new _x position, and starts over calculating the _y position.
Code:
var x:XML = new XML();
x.ignoreWhite = true;
var thumb:Array = new Array();
var thumbTitle:Array = new Array();
var thumbDesc:Array = new Array();
[code]...

I have a single text field that attaches numerous lines of text. Because each line has an individual hyperlink, I'm using += and a for loop to append the next line. Here's the problem... When the text reaches the bottom it keeps going past the viewable area instead of becoming a new column - obviously by default. I know I can use scroll bars and all that mumbo jumbo, but having several columns is the way the client wants it.

I have multiple datagrids with about 10-15 columns total. I have a numeric sortCompareFunction for each column. At the moment, I have a separate function for each sort compare I do....each does the sorting numerically. I'm guessing I could condense functions sort1, sort2, sort3, etc into 1 function but I can't figure out how:
private function sort1(obj1:Object, obj2:Object):int{
var value1:Number=(obj1.zip==''||obj1.zip==null)?null:new Number(obj1.zip);
var value2:Number=(obj2.zip==''||obj2.zip==null)?null:new Number(obj2.zip);[code]...............

I have a datagrid with multiple columns. I can click a column header to sort the rows, but I don't know how to sort on two or more rows. For example, last name, age, then racing time.

I'd like to set up a 2 column, multi-row text box where a user/viewer could input text strings in and upon completion the text could be sent off, retaining its columns/rows, via email. This is on a page where clients can see a window dub of their videos and use one column to enter a timecode number(i.e. 1;03;25;23 or just 24;25) and the next to make comments.
I was thinking of two text input boxes- side by side, and then using some sort of dynamic arrays to create/push new input text boxes after a hard return is entered, but I can see all sorts of problems with that...
And I'm not sure if a data grid box component even accepts input text or whether a table would work etc. So I was wondering if you folks out there might have an idea as to the best approach for me to at least start researching or a on-point tutorial that covers this situation, etc.

I'm trying to create a Flex DataGrid where the firstname and lastname are shown under each other, but in the DataGridColumn
Ideally I would want to do something like
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 2" dataField="time"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 2" dataField="firstname,lastname" itemRenderer="renderers.FirstNameLastName"/>
so that both values get passed to the itemrenderer, is this possible?

I want to save remotely (on a database) the state (visible columns, columns width and order) of a Flex3 DataGrid.For width and visibility I can simply save them by accessing each column attribute.. But for the order? Do I have to create the dataGrid dynamically?

I have 5 text files that contain a list of 50 items in each file.
I want to bring that information into a datagrid; 1 column per text file. I'd also like to extend the code to add more columns when new files are created.
I was able to bring in one column, but maybe an approach with xml, an xml connector and dataset would be better.
Here is the code so far:
Code:
var PATH:String = "10-12-09.txt";
var extIndex:Number = PATH.lastIndexOf( '.' );
var extless:String = PATH.substr( 0, extIndex );

I need to create a multidimensional array with a certain number of rows/columns from variables that store the number of rows/columns. For example say I have:
var r:int = 5;
var c:int = 10;
I want a multidimensional array that has 5 rows and 10 columns, every space within the array filled with the value 0.

Here's what i've got...
_root.onMouseDown = function() {
_root.attachMovie("flag_mc", "flag_mc" + nextDepth(), nextDepth(),{_x:_xmouse, _y:_ymouse});
}
My problem is that it only adds one instance of flag_mc to the movieclip. When I press the mouse down again, it removes my old instance and puts a new one. Is it possible to make it leave the old one and add another?

Now that I'm on the verge of madness I must consult the forum. I'm simply trying to take one movie clip I made, make it behave like a button, and attach multiple instances of it on my stage, each of which will load a different image to the page. Therefore each movie clip instance contains one crucial bit of unique info -> a number.
That way when I click on the upper left movie clip button it will load ["poster"+this.num] where this.num = 1 and so on. Im having a heck of a time talking to the variables stored in my movie clips... tried to do an onLoad since I only want to set it once but to no avail. any ideas? i'm confused myself just trying to explain it so i'll attach the fla, it's not too big.

I'm developing a game and the objective is to drag some objects to a container. Some objects add points, and some other subtract points. So, all the objects are in the library and have a linkage name to be called by attachMovie. I want to create an Array with all the objects that belong to container, like for example filename1 = ["obj1", "obj2", "obj3"]; etc... I have a var called count1 that defines the number of objects to appear on the Scene

Basically, on my stage, the user can select a bunch of different weapon parts and each 'part' has its own movieclip. Once the user has customised a full weapon, I need to give them the ability to convert the entire array of parts into a single movieclip so that I can then use that generated weapon (move it around in a game) without moving the individual parts around.

I want to make multiple empty MCs and fill each one with a thumbnail for a menu. I want to do this using for loops so I can control as many as I need.
What's the most efficient way of doing this?
I'm used to creating empty MCs in AS2, but I'm not familiar with the new display object way of handling this method.
So far I have this:
Code:
for (i=0; i<numImages; i++) {
thmb.push(gallery.features.image[i].@thmb.toString());
var imageLoader:Loader;

Another question re setting up FMS to do multiple vid conferences:I have 3 or 4 video feeds being generated from different locations, and those 3 or 4 video feeds are going to be consumed by others. Can I do that through the same NetConnection/FMS application? Or do I need to create multiple FMS applications (i.e. one for each feed)? I currently have one feed on a NetConnection, but I'm looking to expand it.

I am trying to create a project with multiple pages. I stumbled across a tutorial demonstrating how to load and unload swf's. I used it and it works. way i could specify a btn or mc in the loaded swf that will specify the "click" area where the unload content takes place? Right now if i click anywhere on the loaded swf it unloads (i want that to be specified).
var myLoader:Loader=new Loader ();
page1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page1content);
function page1content(myevent:MouseEvent):void {

i got this flash with duplicated mc's say...enemy1, enemy2, enemy3. now we all know we can do something such as..
if {_root.blah.hitTests(_root.enemy)){_root.enemy.nextFrame();}}
because the enemy is duplicated and its no longer "enemy" but enemy12 or ****.is there any way to ...create multiple enemies and be able to do hitTests against them somehow.Also im not really a fan of attachMC

My issue is that I have 10 small audio clips and I want to make them into variables that i can access later in the code. But I'd be happy if I didn't have to write the same code 10 times down over and over to create/access them.[code]...
A question on the side, is there any built in sound generator in actionssccript 3.0?

I put together this code that builds a container that contains boxes(squares) in an ordered way. Problem is when I rotate the container, the boxes don't stay in their order. (something to do with swapping depths I think) . In fact, they look a bit confusing. Just create a movieClip 24 x 24 and Name it Box. Create another movieClip and name this one Container. Save them in your library. Then just copy this code and compile. You know the routine.

i'm having a problem with a for loop. The problem is that it doesn't create multiple movieclips with an unique instance, i think it copies over itself.
for( var i = 1, x = -20; i < 4; i++){
if(this['plaatje' +i] != undefined){
_root.again.createEmptyMovieClip("image", i);

I'm running into a roadblock with creating multiple instances of a movie clip. I'm trying to display a series of boxes across the bottom of the stage. The number of boxes are determined by _global.maxStep[_global.sectionNum]. I have a movie clip called StepBox that will serve as the template for each box. In the StepBox movie clip is a dynamic text box called stepNumText, which I want to set to the value of the counter. The problem I have is that I've only ever used attachMovie, but there is no movie for it to attach to. I tried using Content since that's the name of the layer this is in, but I know that doesn't make sense (and it doesn't work).
Code:
_global.updateBoxes = function() {
var curr_box;
for (i = 1; i <= _global.maxStep[_global.sectionNum]; i++) {[code].....

If I have multiple variables of the same type, can I create an array and loop to create them or do I need to create them individually.
For instance,
var ajArray:Array = new Array(mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6, mc7, mc8, mc9, mc10, mc11, mc12, mc13);
for (var i:number = 0; i<ajArray.length; i++){
var [ajArray[i]]:MovieClip;
}
