ActionScript 2.0 :: Cleaning The Stage?
Mar 2, 2005
I have a stage that's filled with dynamically generated isometric objects [ in the shape of a smiley, placed according to an array ], and when i click a button, i would like the stage to be cleared, then another frame with another isometric code and another array to load.The problem i am facing now is that the items positionned from the smiley are still on the stage if the next array is smaller than the previous one.Currenlty, i triedunloadMovieNum(depth) in between with this code:
Code:
n = 50;
onEnterFrame = function(){

The problem I am facing now is that the items positioned from the smiley are still on the stage if the next array is smaller than the previous one. Any way I could clear the stage before going on the next frame? Currently, I tried unloadMovieNum(depth) in between with this code:
Code:
n = 50;
onEnterFrame = function(){
trace(n);
n--;
unloadMovieNum(n);
if ( n<=0){
nextFrame();
} else { stop(); }
}
What happens is that it clears the stage, but doesn't load anything in the following frame.

I've created a map with the 50 states. I then hardcoded this so that when you hover over them the alpha is set to .5, and if you click on when it's ChildIndex is set to -1 and it plays the animation of the state growing to full size. I know there is a better way to do this, rather than how I wrote each line of code for each of the fifty states...
I'm also trying to play an outro animation "down" after the state is clicked while it is enlarged from the "up" animation.I also tried to create a var state so that when you mouse off of a state the state is no longer highlighted, but I ended up doing a work around using currentframe=.
Code:
//import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var small:int = 1;
var big:int = 2;[code]....

I'm trying to clean up my code for an animation I created. I'm hoping by doing this, my animation will stop being as buggy and/or I can more easily figure out why its being buggy. think that variables are the way to go so I read up on them and have a decent idea of what I need to do. But what sounds good in my head doesn't seem to work on screen.So basically I would like to take my three buttons called card1, card2 and card3 and combine their functions. All the code for each button looks exactly like the code below (except for the mc name of course)
Code:
card1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overhandler);
function overhandler(event:MouseEvent):void {

The reason why I'm writting it's because I'm doing a website in Flash, and I don't know how to do one thing.I can create the TextArea, it's ok by now. But what I want to do now it's create 2 buttons. In the first, the "Clean" button, if I clicked on him, the TextArea delete everything it was written there, and in the "Send" button I send an e-mail to one e-mail, with what was written in the TextArea.

I had Flash 8 on my computer, and back when CS3 came out I purchased the full suite and installed that. Yesterday (years later, now) I was cleaning up installs on my computer to free space. I used Control Panel to remove Flash 8 from my PC.Now Flash CS3 still launches and works, but I cannot get .swf files to launch on their own at all. When I double-click them to open them, I get the message:
The file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel. I've googled to figure out what that means or how to do it, but I haven't found a decent reply that's been effective. If I try to drag a .swf into a browser window (or just open it with a browser), it is also not recognized. Oddly enough, I can view Flash files on web pages no problem (when browsing online)...
Some necessary components must have been removed when Flash 8 was installed. I suppose I could try re-installing Flash CS3, but the problem with that is that I'm out of town on business for the next 10 days. My Studio install discs are back at home, and I need to get work done this week!.

I'm a relatively experienced programmer, but I'm completely new to as3my question is how can I remove one object and subsequently all it's child objects and their listeners?I need to remove all objects from a certain object called "world". My objects are all on top of this "world" object. the game has a level object which is on top of this "world" object and it produces enemies among other things on an enter frame event.To remove this from the stage I call the world.destroy() method from the main timeline.
Code:
// * Destroy the world
public function destroy()

Lets say a scene started off around 70-80mb, it loaded a swf in, and by removing the event listener and setting objects to null and numbers to 0 before unloading the swf,and went back to the original scene, the memory stack up till like 80mb++, and every time I repeats the same process the memory goes up higher,is that normal? or its a memory leaking issue?

As a best practice should trace statements be removed form all AS once we're on the final files? Or does it not matter and therefore best for future reference to leave them be?

I have a working rotating menu that I have been changing to suite what I am trying to acheive. it all works apart from the distance between images which I can sort out later. At the moment the movie has a UI which I would rather remove including the script that makes it function just leaving the rotating menu, and the script to change the radius and size etc witin the main.as. I do not want the user to have the capabilities of the UI control panel. remove and clean up the script as everytime I remove related script the menu stops playing.

I want to display HTML formatted content from various sources inside a Flash Flex application. Flash supports HTML formatting in its text fields, however it is very limited compared to a web browser. Are there any scripts out there that will convert common HTML formatted text into a format that Flash can handle? My particular use cases are:Displaying HTML formatted emails inside FlashDisplaying RTF files inside Flash (after running an RTF2HTML conversion on the server)Displaying random HTML content copied and pasted from other sources into Flash

I have a bit of code that calls a custom class that I made in flash. Basically when you roll over this logo I have a function that makes a new instance of a custom class and calls it to the stage like a little pop-up text when you roll over something. Then when you roll off of it I remove it from the stage. The following code is for the first pop-up text.

I have made a game that after you reached a certain object it will switch to the next level. The next level is in a new layer and in a new frame. Problem is I think all of the properties (speed, collions etc..) have been inherited... Meaning my charachter will move on his own and collisions will still apply for objects if the previus frame.
Is there some kind of way to clean all of the properties and have "fresh" start? I have tried to clean the Array that detects the collisions, the collisions work now. But the player now is 2x faster and also jumps 2x higher... I don't have the code to past in here right know, I will add it later. So, summing up. Is there some kind of way for me to clean the properties of objects from one frame to the other?

I have created an animation (see attached) where the stage can be dragged from left to right to reveal hidden areas off the edge of the stage. Unfortunately I need to add buttons containing links to websites within the dragable movie symbol and I can't work out how to do it.

I am using SWFOBJECT to embed my flash content. I have been worried about stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight returning 0 in Firefox/Internet Explorer; this problem is referred to in question #21 on the SWFOBJECT FAQ [URL]..I have been told that this problem is particularly prevelant on Macs. The SWFOBJECT FAQ (question 21) indirectly suggests that this problem does not occur with static publishing. Is this correct? Is it still advisable to implement a solution to this stageWidth/stageHeight problem, even if you are using static publishing?

- I have A.fla.
- A.fla includes buttons, movie clips and also B.swf is loaded in A.fla using a LOADER
- i want to access elements in A.fla, from the actionscript codes inside B.fla to modify those movie clips and buttons based on actions going on in B.swf
for instance, lets say there is a button X in A.fla, and there is a button Y in B.fla, B.swf is loaded into A.fla, and I want the button Y to erase button X when clicked.
general question: accessing elements in a stage, through a SWF file loaded into that stage.

I'm writing a web based flash app that's written entirely in AS3. I have objects on the screen as part of a GUI. I would like the user to be able to resize the window, or make it full screen. I would like everything to auto-scale with the resize, but also remain in the same relative position on the stage.

I've been working on a project that requires lots of scaling around a center point.
I always thought that stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight give you the dimensions of the stage you set in the properties panel no matter what. But when I went into fullscreen mode (with scaling), both the width and the height changed to the dimensions of the screen rather than staying the dimensions I specified.

I have a moving vehicle on the stage, which should change directions according to where I click on the stage.I already made it work using this formula:var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90;However, I need the car to tween to the correct angle, instead of just "jumping" to it. While this is easy enough to do, the car sometimes takes the longer turn (especially when I click in the bottom-left quarter of the stage), and it seems unnatural.

In my AS3 code all the elements on the page are dynamically positioned depending on the current width and height of the SWF - providing it's not under a certain value, then the items are back in their original position.
When debugging in the Flash player the size all reports correctly however when run from a web browser it does not - initially.
This is my HTML & PHP code for the entire page:
HTML Code:
<?php
function hashId($fn) {
$hash=md5_file($fn);
[Code].....
But I cannot get the size to report correctly without, say, clicking a button.
It seems to me like I need to force flash to re-draw the screen, but I had no luck trying to do that.

When you resize the browser window the thumbnails rows and columns adjust accordingly to fit.I've managed to attach the thumbnails correct when my enableButtons() function is called but i'm unsure how to approach resizing.
Stage.align = "TL";
var numberOfGalleries:Number = 20;
var thumbMarginX:Number = 163;
var thumbMarginY:Number = 109;
