Just wondering if anyone knows of anyway i can put images AND text into the drop down section of a combo box. An example of what I'm trying to achieve is in the attached jpeg.
View 2 RepliesI know how to apply a "drag and drop" to a MovieClip calling it by it's instance name, but i have a gallery of 24 images created by a Loader. And when i try to apply the drag and drop to the loaded image i can't. I thought about two possible solutions:1. Converting the loaded image to a MovieClip or putting it inside a MovieClip.2. Making a "drag and drop" that can be applied to loaded images.But i tried to get really hard to that solutions and couldn't make it. I am trully desperate.Here i paste the relevant part of my code:(mcCadenaMontaje is a MovieClip which i have the images loaded in)
ActionScript Code:
import clases.Drag;
function cargar_hueso(q,r,s){

Im writing an IOS game using AS3. Here's the problem- I have an image on the screen that moves around. When the image's y value goes negative (the image is partly off the screen), the frame rates bottom out. I've gone over my code pretty thoroughly, even threw together a few test projects just to experiment. In all the test I do, whenever there is an object that is off screen, even partially, the frame rates drop. It's making scrolling backgrounds impossible. BTW, I'm using Packager for iPhone and a 3G (not 3GS). Frame rates are normally 24 with no problems
View 2 RepliesEverything seems to work correctly locally, until I upload it to the test server. The SWF will connect to the database, but it won't load the images, and the drag and drop functionality messed up.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to make a xml based portfolio in Flash CS5. I want to use a UILoader to load external images, but I want the images to have a drop shadow when displayed. I tried saving the image with a drop shadow in Photoshop with a .png format. When it was uploaded the image didn't show the drop shadow and had jaggy edges. Normally I use a filter in Flash but the option isn't available for the UILoader object. if there is a way my images can be displayed with a drop shadow, otherwise I will do without.
View 1 RepliesI loaded some images from an external XML file, and tried to add a startDrag() & stopDrag() on my actionscript, but it got an error. "ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property startDrag not found on flash.display.Loader and there is no default value."
this is the data in my XML File

I think my "MouseEvent.CLICK" is conflict with "MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN or MOUSE_UP"
How can I drag up & down an IMAGE from an ARRAY or XML LIST since it will just LOAD a one variable array?
I have been making a memory game, where words are shown to the user. Once they have memorised the words they go to the next screen where the words that they have memorised are shown. They then have to drag each word into a "correct" place and a "wrong" place. I now want to edit it so that I can use two arrays one for correct words and one for wrong words. I want to generate random words from each of these arrays. I have sort of worked out how this is possible to do but using dynamic text, but am I correct in thinking that the whole dragging the words thing is not possible with dynamic text. (I may be wrong though, I am quite new to flash).

View 3 RepliesI need to have drag and drop functionality on a dynamic text box. I searched and from my understanding Flash does not allow startDrag() and stopDrag() on a text box. Am I correct in saying that I have to somehow embed the text box onto a movieclip and drag the movieclip? If so, how can I embed a text box on a MC in this manner?

So I'm trying to make a game where you have to complete a text with words (or expressions) from a stock. The text would be full of holes and to fill those holes you'd have to drag and then drop words contained in a stock. A bit like this:

Now I know this is possible, I have seen it (in flash) already... but I have absolutely no clue how to go about coding it myself. What I find particularly difficult is having a drop zone in a middle of a text. How do you use the hitTestObject function with just text??

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a schoolproject and I have a flashapplication that I want on my site. In this image you see a horizontal scrollbar and a vertical scrollbar. In the middle are the photographs, those you'll click in the horizontal scrollbar and they will enlarge (with some text). That's the red arrow. The yellow arrow is the thing I wanted too. When you click a photograph in the horizontal bar en you hold em, you can drag that photograph in the vertical bar and drop it there.

I have 20 squares, each one has a different number(1, 2, 3, etc.) The number is in a dynamic text box which is centered above the square( the square is a Sprite object called "MySquare".) I would like to make the squares drag and droppable. When I test the movie, the arrow cursor becomes a vertical line when over the number. I can click on the edge of the square but then the cursor automatically goes to the center and the compiler returns the error: property StopDrag not found on flash.text.textField.
Here is ActionScript Code:
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var m1:MySquare = new MySquare();
m1.theText.text="1";
addChild(m1);

I'm cruising through the Classroom in a Book series for ActionScript 3.0 and I'm having problems with the uiscrollbar attaching to a text field. I've used them before, but this time when I drag it over to the text field it keeps jumpimg to the outside of the box instead of attaching and I can't seem to get in inside the box unless I manually change the X and Y settings and force it where I want it to be. Even then it doesn't work correctly.
View 2 Repliesit is possible using Action Script 3.0 to allow a user to drop in videos / manipulate a text file to add or change videos/ text that feed to a media player, without doing it directly through the flash studio actions page. Ideally I would like to have a folder with the swf/fla file, all the video files, and perhaps a text file that alowed the user to manipulate the text of the video i.e. title/description Would it be easier to instead give that user a youtube like solution where they simply had the ability to upload/describe videos, through the webserver, rather than do it through a pc?
View 1 RepliesI'm really new to AS3 and could use some help. I have a movieClip with a drag and drop functionality that's working fine but then inside this movieClip is a dynamic text field and it won't let me click over the text field to start dragging and if I click off to the side I can drag but the movieClip is automatically centered and then I can't drop because now the text field is under the mouse and it keeps saying:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property stopDrag not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value. at MethodInfo-10()
Why is AS3 so finicky? I'm clicking on the MC for the love of $(*%@ not the text field. Errr..
