i am trying to define a dynamic object name.. here my code, but i guess it is wrong.
PHP Code:
i = 0
var knobListen = "knob"+i;
var knobListen:Object = new Object();
};
//add the event listener to the knob
myKnob_mc.addEventListener("onRotate", knobListen)
Basically, the problem I have is that I'd like to limit the predators to their own hunting environment, ie. Polar bear to ice, killer whale to sea so that the penguin has at least some chance of avoiding either predator. My initial idea was to define a boundary (apologies if this isn't the correct terminology) around the ice, thereby achieving what I'd like but I have no idea how to do this. Am I thinking about this too simplistically? Also, I would like the killer whale to retain its ability to swim under the icebergs. Note: As you can probably tell, the killer whale is on the lowest layer below the sea and then the ice is on a layer above the sea.

View 3 RepliesI'm creating a number of dynamic text field objects in my Actionscript, but it looks like its being rendered on the wrong layer. I've written the actionscript in the first frame of my 3rd layer (which is masked), but the objects that are rendered dont appear to be affected by the masking effect (that does work with static objects). Is there a way to define programatically which layer an object is rendered in? Something like layerNo.stage.addChild(object)?

I intended to write a script that would create a dynamic guided character motion. The drawing API tut gave me an idea how to do it. I thought I'll write a script that would draw a line (or a curve) and would put it into guided motion layer. So I just wrote it by the tutorial and put it into guided motion layer. Yeah, that was naive.So how do you define where (layer) the script would draw curve/line? How do you define the layer in which the new object would be crated?

I am very new to Flash and I have the following script:
mouseInterval = setInterval(changeAlpha,10);
function changeAlpha(){ fader_mc.alpha = Math.round(root.mouseX/550*100) }
This is simply to change the Alpha of my object as I change the X value of the mouse cursor. I keep getting the following error message:
1120: Access of undefined property mouseInterval
Essentially this is what I want to accomplish, however it doesn't work like this. Is there any solution: - The problem is I can't dynamically name a new object..

I have value object that one of its field is meant to be filled trough a dropdown chooser. I'm very new to flex so I'm not sure what is the best way to maintain this field.
Should I make it a simple string in the value object and a table in the DB, and each time I have the dropdown to send a request to read it from the DB? That what I would have done with JS but in flash I thinkl it might be better to somehow keep that information in the flex app instead of keep asking the server to send the names every time.
The field has about six options and it is choosing htat field happens a lot during work with the app.
I have this situation where i'm trying to save "chat logs" while people switch around views in my flex mobile application..so, my plan is i'm starting out with a main object that I plan to re-use as the main chat log object..I call it textObjso, when someone new wants to chat my plan is to make a new object with the persons username.so how if i were to get the username from something like data.username how could I translate that into the var name of the object I want to make?

View 2 RepliesI am using a regular Flash object as a simple data container, and I want to remove a particular property of that object. Then that object gets passed on to a for..in loop. But even after using delete to remove the property, the key still shows up in the loop.
For example:
var obj:Object = { a: "a", b: "b", c: "c" }
delete obj['b'];
for ( var prop:String in obj ) {
[Code].....
So deleting the property seems to be the same as assigning its value to null.
Is there any way to immediately remove the property from the object altogether so that it is no longer looped over in a for..in loop?
It is not sufficient to check the property for a null value since a property with a null value is not the same as not having the property in the first place, and represents a different state. I don't want to set the property to null, I want to remove the property.

I'm creating a list of news items you can click on to open the news item.Each "open button" is created dynamically.I want it so when you roll over it runs a tween that changes the colour and when you roll off it changes it back.I found the code to do the colour change but the same tween class is being used for each button so if you roll out of one button onto another it stops the tween and starts again half way through.How do you define a tween dynamically for each button?[code]

I have a symbol called Score which has 1 static textfield and 1 dynamic textfield called scoreDisplay. Instead of dragging the symbol into the FLA and naming the symbol right there I want to add it as an object instead.
When I add it through the FLA and try to update the score in the textfield everything works, but I don't get it to work using AS.
So, is there any way to name an object that you create by using addChild in the same way you name it when you drag it into the FLA?

I have a general Flash question. I have got 2 .SWF wrappers (Playbook and Android,that work perfectly) that takes any .SWF file and wraps it up as an application. I'm hoping to make 1 application and have it run on both the Blackberry Playbook and any Android device.Technically everything is perfect but the problem I am having is with the layout.For example if an object is placed at x= 512 y=400 then it looks great on the Playbook but that looks horrible on an Android screen thats not 1024x800px. What I want to be able to do is something like (x=DeviceWidth/2), (y= DeviceHeight/2) so that it resizes and repositions itself automatically. An example of where I need to change the code is shown belowbt1.tween("_y", 400, 0.5, "easeOutBack");

why I am getting undefined every time I trace the following:
Code:
c = currentCount; //current is 1.
trace (eval("mcSlide" + c)._x);
trace (this["mcSlide" + c]._x);
I would think these would output, if I incrementally go through 3 slides, the correct _x for each slide e.g. mcSlide1._x , mcSlide2._x
Is there a way to get something that would do this?
