I send to the function a movie clip that I use for drag and drop, so when I drop this function is called. The problem is that of the three rectangles that I use for contain the others, only the last senses the drop target.
I want to have an array that loops my movie clips.However, there also needs to be the ability for the loop to stop and play a specific movie clip when a specific thumbnail that corresponds to that clip is clicked on.Then, when that movie is done playing, the array is accessed again and the array continues once again, also looping.I don't even know if this is possible.I set up something that worked in Flash Catalyst, but the only problem is that FC doesn't have the ability to have a fullscreen button in it for the document.I need to be able to have the entire document go fullscreen when a button is pressed.I do not have Flash Builder.[code]
I'm working with Flash Builder 4.5 on an Actionscript project. I've created the following classes:
package { public class ComplexNumber {
[Code]....
but the code inside this loop generates the following run time error: "ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property 0 on ComplexArray." Thus, my code for "BXFN_complex[ii] = ~" is incorrect. Anyone know how to achieve what I'm trying to do? Basically, ComplexDivide.v1p0 returns two numbers, and BXFN_complex is an object containing two number arrays, and I want to assign the ComplexDivide two numbers into the ii'th element of arrays in BXFN_complex.
I am trying to loop a .flv clip located in an array when that clip has finished. Do I add an EventListener.complete then play it again? Ummmm. This seems pretty pedestrian.
Can anyone tell me why the following is taking 4 seconds for Flash to execute:
_moleHoles = new Array(); var countingMoleHoles:Boolean = true; var holeCount:int = 0;
[Code].....
There are 9 object on the stage (but this number could go up or down, that is why I'm dynamically grabbing these this way). So in my test case, this loop runs 10 times.
I have narrowed it down to something to do with the following line:
if (this['moleHole' + holeCount])
Is using dynamic (array syntax) object lookup that much of a performance hit?
I have a label I am referencing form a movie clip inside the movie clip which contains the "label_2." Here is the code I used: MovieClip(parent.parent).gotoAndPlay("return_2"); Now I need to reference a instance name of a movie clip in side the same scene.
It's me again and I'm running into a problem. So, I have this movie clip that is nested inside multiple movie clips. I want to tell Flash to perform an action when that movie clip hits another movie clip in the main timeline. It's just collision detection for a game using the hitTestObject code. I was thinking of using MovieClip(root), but that won't work since it's nested so much.
I want to loop through a movie clip and assign a function to each of the clip's child movieclips. when i do a for...in loop and then do a typeof() trace I get "string" and obviously it won't let me assign lets say 'onRollOver' functions to the children.
I am importing a movie clip as a symbol from a SWF using Embed to a AS3 program and, after attaching the movie clip to the stage, the movie clip keeps repeating. Before you ask I have indeed creating a script layer and put a "stop()" on the last frame. In fact the swf containing the symbol works perfectly fine when executed on its own or in Flashdevelop (my choosen IDE). Its only when imported does the clip keep repeating.Here is the code:
Currently i am working on a project and i need the gallery to appear when a movieclip boxp_mc gets to frame 11 i have this in a function that i call onRelease of a button. However it donsnt seem to read this write. As soon as i click portfolio_btn it traces "dosnt work" i feel its reading it right away. I want it to wait till it gets to frame 11 then to this.
I normally write javascript code, so I wonder how to do this. In JS "Microsoft IS" you'll write code like this:
document.onclick = func; function func() { var obj = event.srcElement; //And there I have reference to the object; }
The graphic designer creates flash drawings and then converts whatever objects to movieclips. Then passes them over to me. All these "mc" need the same action applied to them. So I don't need to know how many they are or their names.
In AS2 I used to be able to reference a movie clip using a variable like this: Code: var target = nameofmovieclip; I've been looking for an answer on how to do the same thing AS3 but with no luck. I'm trying to create a dynamic homing missle, but unfortunately everything I've tried just generates errors.
I have been struggling with what I suppose is a very simple issue: I am importing content into my application via a text file, this all works fine. I have about 10 different movie clips on the parent timeline that I have hidden (dc_mc.visible = false.So what I need to do is take one of the variable names that I've got from my text file and use its value to "turn on" one of these hidden movie clips.So I'm trying stuff like:
var directory = e.target.data.directory; // Grabs the data, sets var var raceNameButton:String = directory+"_mc"; // Set data into new var raceNamesButton.visible = true; // display movie clip with var name
I'd like to invoke a function inside a mc from it's parent, but I want to have the reference to the clip be dynamic. When I path the mc directly and invoke the function it works, how would I make that same reference work dynamically.
Here's a sample of what I'm trying to do:
Code: var myArr:Array = new Array(); myArr[0] = "galleryContainer_mc.eventGallery1_mc.imgContainer_mc"; trace(myArr[0]);
I'm creating a movie clip button and for the out state I have this:
web_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, at_out); function at_out(event:MouseEvent):void { web_btn.gotoAndPlay(30-(web_btn.currentFrame-11)); }
It gives me this error when I click the button: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at index_fla::web_mc_37/at_out() I know the error is in this statement: web_btn.gotoAndPlay(30-(web_btn.currentFrame-11));
So I have created a button and am trying to program the button to start my movie clip of a metronome. I am able to have the movie clip not going, but when I press my start button, the move does one click and does not loopAlso, how do you change the "label" of a button. I have changed it to "start" on the stage and it shows up like that on the screen, but when I view the final scene the button's text says "label"
what I'm trying to do is have a mc play continuously either forward or backward depending on whether you roll over the "forward" or "reverse" buttons..I've almost got it there, except I can't figure out how to get the reverse to loop after it gets back to the beginning of the animation.
i want to loop a movie clip i have (an swf from swift 3d).i want it to spin 4 times, then stop . (using actionscript). [maybe even switch it with another movie clip, or a button or whatever.i have NO idea how to do this. i think maybe using a loop of some sort.
i am making a sidescroller and i'm working on the collision and the way my teacher suggested was to give all the movie clips an instance name (which i did), but i'm not too sure on how to put them into an array for collision detection
the movie clips are within a movie clip simply named levelOne (and lvlOne_mc for as) which is exported for action script. the pieces within are well named and have an instance name (for example the first platform instance name is Pf01) but i don't know how to set up the array so i can set up collision detection between the character and the objects
I know that a movie clip is supposed to loop by default, but mine seems to only go through the code once. Here is my code:
[Code]...
This code is supposed to check server time every second and once the server time passes the end time (stored in a global variable) it should go to a different frame. I've created a variable cd_time for testing purposes which displays current server time on the screen. I would expect it to change every second, but it only displays current time when it loads and does not refresh after.
