View 8 RepliesI 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 2 RepliesI though this would work but unfortunately I am not pulling the txt files into the field.
It is definitley giving me random feedback.
There are ten quotes in a folder: Suzuki_quotes/quote1.txt etc
Should I not use a Dynamic Text field and create a text field using the var.
stop();
var randomNumber:Number = Math.ceil(Math.random()*10); var reqB:URLRequest=new URLRequest("Suzuki_quotes/quote1.txt");var loaderB:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I'm trying to set-up a simple random navigation using labels and an array that jumps to different points in the timeline. I've used a simple onpress handler to initiate. As far as I can figure this should work, however I only ever get one random selection. If I press the button again the playback head does not jump to a new random location. What am I missing here that is obvious?

There is this random image that appears everytime your mouse rollover. If you guys noticed, when it rollover to rollout, the animation seems to control by the x y position of the mouse. It seems logical to be done in animation but not by actionscripting. Would love to get some tips on using actionscripting(randomness) or whatever to do this
View 2 RepliesI don't think I'm as familiar with arrays as I need to be to complete the following project - I've read about 60 posts and no one seems to be doing exactly what I am. Here's what I need to do: From a main swf (home.swf), I need to load 7 consecutive swfs in random order, (movie01.swf, movie02.swf, etc) from an array, into level 1. I need all seven to play without repeating, then repeat them in the same order in a loop.
But I ALSO need the user to be able to navigate through the swfs by using next or previous buttons (or by selecting individually 1-7, but that may be asking too much from my limited knowledge).Here is the code I'm using to generate a random ordered array:
var fileNames :Array=new Array("movie01.swf","movie02.swf","movie03.swf");shuffle = function (targetArray) {for (i=0; i<targetArray.length; i++) {var tmp = targetArray[i];var randomNum = random(targetArray.length);targetArray[i] = targetArray[randomNum];targetArray[randomNum] = tmp;}};shuffle(fileNames )trace(fileNames )
I assume from here I can load the swfs from fileNames [0]. I'm way out of my depth so the rest is a mystery to me.
Making a random number between lets say 0 and 99 is relatively straight forward using the Math.random class What is the best way to create 100 unique random numbers from between 0 and 99 where no random number is repeated?Would I make a random number, chuck it into an array then the next random number created is checked against the array, and if the number has been created before try for another number?
View 2 RepliesHow can i create a random number without using Math.random() I think this can be done with a array... i just don't know how.

how can we create the navigation bar in flash AS2.0. i need to create a navigation bar with the slider control. I called some .swf files from external folder. Now i want to add the navigation bar for that external files. That navigation bar should get the bytes of loaded .swf files. Then that navigation bar will animate upto the 100%. If i drag the slider, loaded .swf file should controlled by the slider(forward and backward).
View 2 RepliesI'm in the mist of a flash project and my client really liked how the (www.nike.com) navigation on this site works to get you into their multitude of sites. I don't care about the sliding and following the mouse. I only care about the showing of "submenus" they way they are doing it to the side with the easing and reveal effects.I would like to create the navigation effect with XML and Actionscript 2.0.

However, I don't know where to start and my Googling effort have been unsuccessful - I guess that I am searching using the wrong terms. It the the way that the wheel moves and interacts with the other segments around it that interests me.

View 2 RepliesAny tutorial for a simple vertical navigation menu with a submenu. Like a drop down menu but vertical where the main links are on the left and the submenues come out the right side of the menu. I don't need any bells and whistles and I am just learning so it doesn't need anything but a button link when rolled over more link options appear to the right. Is there a tutorial that is not a place trying to sell me this capability and actually works (CS3), no errors, broken links etc...just a how to for a simple menu with submenus.

View 1 RepliesIs it able to create a SWF with for example 800x650px and to define some 'containers' within it for other SWF-files? I want to create a container for navigation at the right and when clicking on a navi element,changing the content of anorher container availalble, perhaps like'headAnimation'.
Is it able to change attributes of an included 'container'with a SWF when clicking an element within another SWF placed in a
'container'? Perhaps I have an 'container' with 'navigation.swf' within. When clicking on an elemnt .I want to start a function that fades in/out another'container'. Am I able to create a function that works for all 'containers'? E.g.like that fader so I can submit the name of a 'container' to let it fade out and I can use that function within all elements in any 'container'.
I'm a web designer. In a effort to make Flash-based sites for my clients I have gone over stacks of AS books now for months. I just don't get any of it--and I've tried. Moreover, the books all give abstract examples to do just about anything with AE. My needs are very limited: I need to use AS for web navigation in order to create Flash-based websites. Here's an example of what I'd like my websites to do: [URL]
Can anybody point me to Flash templates, demos, tutorials, AS libraries, websites, videos, classes, that focus on Flash navigation, with specific examples of real life websites? Or blocks of code where all I have to do is replace some lines with my own stuff? Or an AS library comparable to jQuery? I know this has to be doable. I don't know any JavaScript either, but I'm perfectly able to fulfill all my web design needs with jQuery.

View 2 RepliesI need to create a navigation scheme with a dynamic list of movieclips that cycles, the user being able to cycle through the list left or right seamlessly.For example, say there are 12 items in the list, and at any given time three of them are to be displayed, with the center one being the focus/selected item. If the user clicks on the center/focus item, it takes them to a page, no trouble. If they click on the one to the left of the focus item, the list slides right, with the clicked one becoming the new center, focus item.
So, now say that the three visible items are 10, 11, and 12 in our array. If the user clicks on number 12, the list will slide left, with number 12 becoming the focus, and the goal would be to have item number 1 become the new, right-most item in the display - thus, the visible three would be 11, 12, 1. If the user then clicked on one, the cycle would continue, making number 1 the focus and the visible items would be 12, 1, 2. This should work seamlessly at both extremes of the list.
So in one instance, I have created a single movieclip that contains all of the items in the list, plus four extra at the end, to allow the appearance of seamlessness; when the user got to the end, the entire clip jumped to the start. This works, more or less, but it's clunky and I need to find a better way.
I am still using flash MX. I'm pulling random text from a textfile (array.txt) into movieclip instance textbox.[code]All is good, but now my question is if I can have a text effect as well. For example having the random quotes typed out as they appear.
View 16 RepliesI'm trying to find out if you can use an input text fields as navigation?
The idea: If I open my page and then enter (G-12226) or a (MiniGrim) into an input text field is it possible that the flash navigates itself to the Number or Name that is been entered in the input text field, Either automatically or via the touch of a button have no idea what is easiest No idea if this is possible?
My functioning navigation bar is called like this:
_root.attachMovie("navigation_cb", "navigation_mc", 100000);
I want to have dynamic text on the navigation bar that I can changecontroll on different frames, so I added a dynamic text box inside the navigation movie clip. On the frame (in the main time line) that I want the text in the dynamic text box to change, I have this:
_level100000.navigation_mc.mainTxt2.text = "Introduction";
//where mainTxt2 is the var name of the dynamic text box...
//no luck however...not working
if the dynamic text box needs to live at _root, (taken out of the navigation_mc) then how do I get it to appear above level100000?
Edit: NVM i firgured it out alone.
