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'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...
i am wondering if there is a way to put a delay (seconds) on the flashs' native tween class like you can on the laco tween engine... such as

I use laco's tween class for a button color fade. A bit like on the Laco navigation itself : [URL]
It works, only, when the mouse moves a little too fast over the button, it delays, like the mouse didn't went over that button, what gives a pretty annoying effect, like a bug... this is the code I use :
menu1.onRollOver = function ()
{
this.colorTo (0xFF0099, 0.1);
}

How do I pass a variable into a Tween, lets say youve got a Tween like this[code]...
View 7 RepliesI am using the Laco Tween tweening formula, which can be found here:[URL] OK, I set an MC's width and height to 0, which works, then I try to get the MC to expand to it's width and height with the following tween code:

In flex, I am handling event like this,
myImage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, redoOperation);
Now, I want to pass some value to redoOperation. (function redoOperation myId:String)) How can I pass String to it?
For example:
for(var i:int=0; i<someArray.length; i++)
{
var loader:Loader=new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("http://testurl.com/test.jpg"));
[Code]....
The second paramter (i) for imageLoaded is always 1, I guess because i no longer exists and is defaulting to 1. Is it possible to get that second paramter to be evaluated when the load is started rather than on complete?
I think this is fairly straight forward but my skills lie in JavaScript and Ruby rather than flash so I want to run this past a few other minds :) I have a flash file that will take pictures of the user via their web cam. I want to take that newly created image, base64 encode it then pass it to a JavaScript function. That JavaScript function will essentially take this data then embed it into a hidden form element on the page.

How do I execute callback functions dynamically by passing a function in as an argument to another function?
Look at this example:

How can I combine the following functions and still pass a different string to the buildUI(); function?
I have two functions that do the same thing only at the end they both call a function and pass a String value to the function. This string value is the only thing different.
Below is are my eventlisteners and functions as they are now:
female_start.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startFemale);
male_start.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMale);
//FUNCTIONS THAT DO THE SAME THING AND BOTH CALL buildUI BUT PASS A DIFFERENT STRING.

why wont this work?
some_mc["nested_mc_name"].onPress = function():Void {

I'm trying to make a dynamic function so I can pass a string var for the name of any nested movieClip I want on the fly.
I have a movieClip named MC, and it's enabled with action script, with the class name MC_Rectangle and a Stage.I override the MC_Rectangle class file in a mc_rectangle.as external file.here is the code:
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[ code].....
I have new a object in the main stage var
mc_rect:MC_Rectangle = new MC_Rectangle()
in main stage:
1. how can i access the variable "sequence" in "mc_rect"
2. how can i pass parametre from main stage to mc_rect via function setSequence(data:int)?
3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.
in asp.net, i usually use mc_rect.sequenct,mc_rect.setSequence(data), mc_rect.addSequence() to achieve my goals......btw, can function in mc_rect return out result to main stage?
I want to know if there is a way to add an ease function to a movieclip that has a tween added on the stage already? is there a way to specify the number of frames that I want it to ease? For example, say my tween runs for 25 frames, but I want the easeIn to only last for 5 of thoes frames, and resume it's normal speed for the last 20 frames.

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.
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?
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?

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'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].............

get a tween function to left and a tween function to center from right?
