What i'm trying to do is: check if one item of my movieclip is a button and if it is then check its vertical postion and if it's < 70 then disable the button....
so i'm using this but it doesn't seem to work
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
for(var prop in this){
if(typeof this[prop] == "button"){
if(this[prop]._y < 70){this[prop].enabled = false}else{{this[prop].enabled = true}
}}}}
I'm using Actionscript 2 for this interactive.This is what I'm trying to get a button to do:on release:check "mainmovie1" mc on main timeline.If "mainmovie1" mc's timeline is at frame labeled "finished" go to label "1.0" on main timeline If not, go to label "fake_1.0" main timeline
View 2 RepliesHow would you tell a movieclip button to check to see if movie1.swf is loaded, and if movie1.swf is loaded go to and play the frame in movie1.swf? If movie1.swf is not loaded, I don't want movie1.swf to go to and play.

So, now I need to check if my varHloder Array is changed?
Sorry if this is a little n00b-ish. I'm working in AS3. I've got an array of 8 buttons. I'm currently hiding the button that is clicked using e.currentTarget. How can I tell flash to make all the buttons that aren't the currentTarget to become visible (i.e. if a button has been hidden by previously being clicked, how do I tell it to become visible again when another button is clicked?)

View 2 RepliesI'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.
View 2 RepliesThis is something that is probably really basic but for the love of gawd I can't remember how to do it.
Example: 3 menu buttons, you press the first button and it executes a function and disables itself leaving the second and third button enabled. You then press the third button and the first button gets enabled while the third button is disabled. Same thing goes for the second button.
Is there any way to check if any other movieclip is hitting one specific movieclip (not two specific movieclips) something like --> if(movieClip1.hitTestObject(movieClipX)){
with movieClipX being any movieclip
I have 8 movieclip on stage, 4 of them being the contents, and the other 4 being the target. I have to drag all of the 4 contents, into the target. apparently, i am able to do that, but the problem i'm facing right now, is the button that is on stage, is suppose to check if the movieclip are in the right place, which i set them.
Here are the codes:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var startX:Number;

i'm trying to use if statements but can't get this thing to work i want to check if another button is visible on release of a button to determine what action to be taken.the 'gotoAndPlay("firstscene",1)' is just there as an outcome, will be changed later. anyway this is the code i've got on the button i'm pressing. blobyellow2 is an instance of a button blobyellow is it because it's an instance that it's not working?
[Code]...
edit: sorry forgot to put what's wrong with the code. it acts as though the statement is correct no matter if it is or isn't.
I have an xml file that I pull values out of and push into an array. I want to use a value from the array as the name of a movieclip but I keep getting the following error.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI'm currently just testing a few items in Flash. While I'm in this early stage, it'd be quite handy for this particular project if there were a way to assign events to every item in a certain MC (or on _root).
Here's what I've done thus far:
Code:
for (movieClip in _root) {
movieClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(2); };
movieClip.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
[Code] .....
If I trace I can clearly see the instance names of the MCs (which means it works -- sort of), but no matter what I've tried I can't get the events to bind to the on-stage MCs.
How can I target a movieclip that is inside each item in the array using getChildByName. Heres my code so far:
var aMC:Array=new Array(letter, envelope, parcel);
if(i< aMC.length){
var myTargetName:String = aMC[i].target.name;
var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
trace("Stamps Target: "+myTargetName);
if (evt.target.dropTarget != null && evt.target.dropTarget == myTarget) {
// do what ever here
i++;
}}
I have what I think should be a very simple problem. I have an array and can access an element of it like this:
var test = finalArray[0];
Will be a number between 1 and 7
say this will trace a number.No there is a movieclip on the root of stage whose name is a letter (always the same, say "R") and whatever the number is. I'm trying to get this movieclip to gotoAndStop at the frame corresponding to the number that is test. However this isn't working:
"R"+[test as MovieClip.gotoAndStop(test)];
I have a movieclip created with the following code:
var thumbContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
thumbContainer.name = "thumbContainer";
stage.addChild (thumbContainer);
If the window gets larger/smaller I want everything back in place. So I have an stage Event Listener. Now I want to see if this mc exists to put back in place. I've tried different ways but keep getting an error that does not exist.1120: Access of undefined property thumbContainer.
if (this.getChildByName("thumbContainer") != null) {
trace("exists")
}
and
if ("thumbContainer" in this) {
trace("exists")
}
Here is what is happening:
1. click on a thumbnail and an image loads from the library
2. click on a different number and another image loads from the gallery
I don't know how to remove the first image that is loaded.
The images load on top of each other. How can I check if there is already an image loaded? and if there is an image loaded how do I remove that image and load the next image? I'm sure it is a boolean thing but I can't figuare it out.[code]...

How can I check if a Movieclip is clicked.I have two MovieClips on my stage .one has the instance name "yes" the other one is called "no"
if yes is clicked it should do something
if no is clicked it should do something else
but how do I check which one was clicked ?
How do you check if a movieclip exists?
View 5 RepliesIs there a way to check if a movie clip has already been loaded, and then skip it if it has? Attached is my swf. The front info text should only fade away once, not every time someone clicks on a button. Once they're already in a gallery, it shouldn't come up again.

I have a movie clip that is added to the stage.. by the instance name of PHP Code:"ITEM1"Is there a way to check if a particular movieclip/instance is already on the stage?Maybe something along the lines of
PHP Code:
if(_root.ITEM1 == true){}
In AS2, I'd create a movieclip and give it an instance name. Then all I'd have to do for example is, check if _root["myinstance"+i] == undefined but in AS3, if i'm dynamically creating 10 movieclips, how do i check to see if it already exists?
