View 5 Repliesi am learning AS 3.0 at present using FlashDevelop which is really nice to use. I've created to arrays using the following code
[Code]...
now, everytime i do the following myArray. and the methods appear, i can clearly see them. However, when i do it with the latter ie youArray. nothing appears, not even one method. why it does not show the methods when i do the latter method.
(Using Flash Pro 8). Currently, I just need to execute a simple show/hide function that is controlled with a key. Currently, I have a circle movieclip with this coding attached to it:
Actionscript Code:
onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = true;}onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = false;}
And on the first frame of the timeline, I have this code ( so that it is visible = false to begin with ):
Actionscript Code:
_root.circle._visible = false;
Now, my problem is that when pressing the RIGHT key on the keyboard, it reveals the circle, but when it is pressed again, I want it to hide the circle again. Obviously there's a conflict between false and visible, but I don't yet know how to tell flash to make the distinction that the RIGHT key has already been hit once. Is there some kind of 'listener' or something?

im trying to do is have a button that shows an animation (created by a duplicateMovieClip function) with onRollOver and stops the animation with onRollOut. It works when i roll over and it stops when i roll out, but then it continues in a loop up to the point where i rolled out (instead of cutting off completely as i would like). Id be extremely grateful if you could tell me where im going wrong.

That's to say,user can upload .ppt file to my server side,then other people can browser these ppts in the page ..

View 2 RepliesI'm wondering what the difference is between creating a new object with a class or function? For example:
Code:
class snake{
this.id = index++;
this._x = 0;
this._y = 0;
}
or
Code:
function snake(){
var snake = new Object();
snake.id = index++;
snake._x = 0;
snake._y = 0;
}
Whats the difference between a variable and a function? Ive started reading an actionscript book.....and to me it seems there the same.
View 4 RepliesI working on a game project in Flash AS3. I need to pass data from one class (Game) to other class objects (Ships) on EnterFrame and performance is starting to be a issue. I was wondering is there a difference in performance between calling to the Ship a direct function or dispatching an event which the Ship can listen.
another question is where should I put the enterframe function. Is it better to use only one enterframe function and call the methods dispatch events from there, or it will be wiser to put the enterframe in the different objects (Ships)? note: some Ships are inactive most of the time.
What is the difference between the following two function definitions in ActionScript 3?
f = function(arg) {
// body
}
and
function f(arg) {
// body
}
If i keep aside the loose coupling advantage of Events, what is the difference in the way of working of
1) Simple function call
2) Dispatching an event

View 9 RepliesI'm trying to get this one function to be able to call many functions (not at once, but call many possible ones)In other words, I'm trying to get this variable to be named as a function. That way, this one variable can create multiple functions.example:
actionscript Code:
class Thing extends MovieClip{ var funcvar; var othervar; function onLoad() funcvar = "YYY"; othervar = "ZZZ"; function onEnterFrame()
[code].....
is it possible to write a function to move an object and then call that function on a clip event for instance
function (bounce){
script;
script;
}
and then call it by saying
on(mouseOver){
this.bounce;
}
is it possible to store a list of params needed for a function in an array and then use that in a funciton call?
[Code]...
or something like that?? Prob have to iterate the array but how do i get the params into the function call? Is this even possible?
How do I execute callback functions dynamically by passing a function in as an argument to another function?
Look at this example:
