I have a dynamic text box set up called 'circle'. Each time the movie loads I want it to display different text.
Currently, I have
Actionscript Code:
_root.circle="hello","nice to see you", "hello, again";
on the timeline.
Unfortunately, when it loads it just sticks with the first 'hello', instead of choosing one of the other options. How can I tell flash to display a different text option each time?
I was wondering, how do I display text for like 2 seconds or something, then make it disappear?Another question is, how do I set a timer that prevents a function from running within a time limit (2 seconds again) after it ran? Like if a function is triggered by a Key_DOWN, what would a code be to prevent it from running again until that 2 seconds is up? This question is for a 'reload' in a shooter. Is there any other way to approach this?
View 14 RepliesI'm working on writing a new testing utility for my company, and I'm not sure what the correct answer is on this one. Their existing software uses HTML to give and score online tests, and the HTML works with mod_perl and mysql to send and receive the data. I've got the new system 90% functional, except one part.
the questions and answers are stored in the database AS HTML. They are send to the flash movie via loadvars, and I have even gotten them to start displaying. My problems however are that the images do not seem to be loading properly every time, the scrolling of the textarea doesn't seem to work AT ALL, and even when the images do load, they are not lined up properly (adobe says : "An image loaded using the IMG tag will appear on the screen on the line following the IMG tag." Now why the hell would I want it to do that?!?!?!?!)

View 2 RepliesI want to display the current time into a dynamic text box. The time comes correct but the seconds is not running... I want live seconds. what modification should i do to my following code?

I have the following situation: have a screen with 4 charts, each being populated with 59 array collections. Each array collection has 2000+ data points. This construct needs to be filtered(by time), but the problem I'm encountering is the fact that it takes a long time for the filtering to finish (which is to expected given the amount of data points that need to filtered).
Filtering one chart at a time is not option, so I wanted to ask you what do you think would be the best approach? (should I use vector instead?). To generalize this question what would be the best way to filter large collections in flex/as3?

conexion.connect(null);var stream:NetStream = new NetStream(conexion);

stream.play("motto.flv");
this.onEnterFrame = function() {

It works very good, In this line, I get de current time of the flv:
timer_txt.text = ((integer.length<2) ? "0"+integer : integer)+":"+((decimal.length<2) ? "0"+decimal : decimal)
And I need to display the total time too. By the way, I am not using the any flv component, I need to play the video in a custom player....
How can I display the timecode when using the flvPlayback component and custom skin?

View 4 RepliesHow to create some action script that will display either an image or a SWF based on the time of day ie. Day and Night and the seasons ie. Winter, Summer, Spring, Fall.
I know it has something to do with creating a file that is .as and making sure you have the correct class Id. Looked at a few tutorials on creating calenders and image galleries but can not figure out how to combine the two to just show the image or SWF.

I need this to work so that on my stage i can have a dynamic text box displaying the current time of the flv and the total time ---- example 3:45 / 6:58 where the 3:45 would update as the flv was scrubbed or played, or whenever a jump point was pressed. I found an example of this on this page.I have been using the as3 code to import my video and use cue points and for the life of me I cant get this to work.

View 2 RepliesBy default, when you visit a website that is made entirely in Flash and there is a Tme and Date movie clip feature... you know... it gets the current time and date of your computer so you're actually seeing your own time, right? What I've always wanted to do is when you visit a website that is made entirely in Falsh, and you have a Time and Date movie clip that tells the creators current time and the current date instead of just getting the values of your computer time and displaying your own. I'm in the Philippines so I want the visitors of my site to view what time and date is it in the Philippines.
