ActionScript 2.0 :: Concatenate A Name And Variable Number?
Nov 20, 2007I'm trying to concatenate a name and variable number. Then trace it, so answer3 should output from my loaded xml data "water". Instead all I can get to trace is the word "answer3". If I type "answer3" in the trace I get the variable im looking for. If I type [this.getCorrectAnswerNumber()] in the trace I get number 3. How do I go about concatinating the word answer and a dynamic number.
Heres my code...
Code:
trace("answer"+[this.getCorrectAnswerNumber()]);
ActionScript 3.0 :: Change String Variable To A MovieClip Variable?
Oct 10, 2008I have been banging my head against a brick wall regarding the following problem which must be very simple to fix, just can't see the answer.I have a class assigned to a movieclip called canvas. The class is called drawClass. I have called the instance of canvas on the stage 'drawingCanvas'.When I trace "drawingCanvas" I get object drawClass] which is fine. Tracing drawingCanvas.name gets me the instance name 'drawingCanvas'.This is a String variable.Basically what I am trying to do is pass the MovieClip name to another class. In my example the class 'toolBar', which can then interact with the MovieClip.
The problem is passing 'drawingCanvas.name' results in a String, so I get an error saying :TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "canvasArea" to flash.display.MovieClip.I can't for love or money find a way to convert a String variable to a MovieClip variable! I have the name of the MovieClip, I just need to tell the toolbar class. But I can't find a way of doing this as the instance on stage is an object of drawingClass, not a MovieClip (unless MovieClips with attached classes are not treated as standard MovieClips?).

View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Button Change A Variable, And Add A Number And String?
Jan 25, 2010I would like to make a dynamic button on a website I am working on. I would like one button to update a variable, and another set of buttons to add 1 or subtract one from the variable I have buttons on the left side of the page for some bands that load conent into an empty movie clip.
The website: [URL]
I would like to set up some forward and backward arrows above that content on the right, so users can also scroll through the content in order. So if someone loads the content for soul asylum, and click the back arrow, it goes back to the Wailers, and if they click the forward arrow, it goes to Swollen Members. So there is an order of pages: 1. Wailers, 2. Soul Asylum, 3. Swollen Members, 4. Passafire, 5. Beats Antique, 6. SFM Kind of an order of importance. The idea is if somebody starts by clicking #3 Swollen Members, my application will know that it is on #3 and the arrows will go to #2 or #4.
Is there a way for the main artist buttons on the left to reset a variable for the current slide? So if someone clicks on the Swollen Members picture button, a variable called currentselection equals 3 And then when the forward arrow is clicked, it will ad 1 to the current selection and load movie #4
So in VB the main Swollen Members button would be something like: im currentselection as int = 3 Which would reset the current page as 3
Then the forward arrow would have code like:
Dim Nextselection as Int
Nextselection = & currentselection +1 & ".swf"
And the button in flash would be something like:
on (release) {
loadMovie("Nextselection", "rightcontent_MC")}
Which would load 4.swf the slide for passafire.
So how would I do this in action script 2.0?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Application Variable Or Static Variable?
Oct 16, 2010The Idea is i want to make avariable that stores his value after i close the swf and open ti again,
an example:
i make acounter
var i:int = 0;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
timer.start();
[Code]....
the value of i will increase but after i close the application and open it again the value will return to 0 , keep the variable stores his value after closing the application ?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Using A Variable To Change A Variable?
Jan 14, 2009I'm creating a board game which has 3 variables, p1Move, p2Move and activePlayer.
p1Move and p2Move store the p1 and p2 location on a game board. activePlayer stored who's turn it is at the moment.
I am loading a value in from a text file which changes the value of move. This all works fine when i designate a player directly:
ActionScript Code:
p1Move = [insert variable name],
but i want to designate dynamically based on who's turn it is.
Something like this:
ActionScript Code:
_root["p"+activePlayer+"Move"] = Number(this.varAmount);
so that flash changes the value of p1Move (or p2Move depending on who's turn it is) to varAmount. varAmount is the variable being read from the textfile.
Hopefully that all makes sense. Basically i want flash to change the variable associated with the active player only.

View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Detect Variable Change
Nov 7, 2010I have a flash movie being loaded inside a parent movie. Inside the loaded movie is a variable called lvl, and its refered to as loadedmovie.lvl in the parent movie.
So if i'm wondering what the lvl is in the loaded movie, I just use loadedmovie.lvl to get the variable.
But I want to know when this variable CHANGES. How am I able to detect when this lvl variable changes? Inside the loaded movie, it's been set to change almost every frame in the movie, but I'm not going to call a function inside every frame of that movie to find out when it changes.
how do I detect a variable change and then make it call a function?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Detecting A Change To A Variable?
Oct 31, 2011Can I detect a change to a variable (a data string)?
I am making a AS2 SWF (player level 7) with a combobox page navigation. I have a page name variable that I am changing from outside of the SWF with Director and Authorware using (I believe) FlashVars. The variable (internally) is set by default during SWF initialization. The external variables values allowed are always one of the combobox's data field values. The combobox default variable is not always index positon 0 (zero). Or the order of the data either. The variable can get changed internally by the nav combobox used for navigation independent of the external variable. - this works When the shared nav var is changed from the external source, the combobox needs to change to the match the corresponding combobox's data variable. This is what I am trying to do. I can change the combobox setting programatically (index) but not get it to recognize it as a change event. Or tell it programatically
Can the combobox be selected by the data variable or is the only option to use the index (and loop through index values to match variable to data field)?
And update the combobox selection (and as a result the nav page) by triggering a change event programatically?
Detecting the var change cleanly without the OnEnterFrame trick is my goal - if it even works in the version I have to use (flash palyer 7).
