ActionScript 2.0 :: Duplicate Click And Dragged Objects?
Jun 14, 2006
I'm supposed to create something like this:1. Create 4 coat of arms (Shields2. Pour colour onto different segments of the shields3. Click and drag objects onto the shield4. PrintMy problems lies in step 3. How do I actually create multiple copies of the same object that I clicked and dragged? At the same time, I also want the original copy to stay in position so I will only need to click and drag on the original copy to create the duplicates.I got the code from the net (I'm no pro in this). What I did was, convert the object into a button, then into a movie clip. Double-clicked the movie clip, I inserted the following code on the movie clip:
My problem is that when I click the letter movieclip it does create the duplicate as it should and it starts to drag the duplicate mc. However, when I release the clip it doesn't stop dragging? I realized that if I put onMouseUP event instead of onRelease it actually does stop dragging when I release the mouse. I would, however not like to use the onMouseUP event if possible.
I am trying to simulate onpress and onrelease functions but using onMouseDown and onMouseUp.squareContainer can be dragged around but squareBack, which is inside squareContainer changes colour when clicked. These both work.But.. when I drag squareContainer around, if the mouse is on squareBack (back) it changes colour as it sees it as onMouseDown. In the mouseUp, if squareContainer has changed position then it has been dragged. Then, using this I somehow want to say in mouseDown that if squareContainer is being dragged then dont change colour.. but it doesnt work!!![code]
I'd like to create an ability to drag-n-drop ~10 max. objects onto target and to get a list or a line of names 'associated' with them, separated by commas or smth. Then, to be able to copy that list into clipboard.
I have a movie that I want to be dragged on the x coordinate on click, and if you drag it to the left it should play a different movie then when you drag it to the right. here is what I tried so far and of course it does not work.
I set up this practice file for a photo gallery, but why do I have to click the "thumbnail" twice to get it to kick in and duplicate? One click should duplicate the thumbnail, enlarge it, move it over, and gray out the thumbnail, which works except for the 2 clicks thing.

duplicate the dynamic objects and have a little problem. It looks like this: Flash retrieves data from sql, PHP returns the result to me in the form: $name1=some text $name2=some text $name3=some text $count=3 Flash creates elements very nicely but I do not have no idea what type of code place in script (in the place marked by ?)to put text to those MC.
Script look like this:
ile = parseInt(count); for (i=1; i<ile; i++) { threadCanvas.attachMovie("border", "post" add i, i);
I have this script on a button: Code: on (release) { kast0.duplicateMovieClip("kast"+(num+1), 0); this["kast"+(num+1)]._x = kast0._x+((num+1)*15); this["kast"+(num+1)]._y = kast0._y; num++; }
And this in frame one: num = 0; "kast0" is a MC, that I want to duplicate (with every click), so there would be many of those in a row. But that script "erases" the "kast1" if it creates "kast2" currently I have my fla with only one frame and there is no other actions.
Is there a way to duplicate objects, like lines across the screen quickly without using AS3 at a fixed distance apart? I tried using Ctrl+D but it has a distance for 7 pxl apart. I want to change that to 1 pixel. Is there a way to change this setting or a tool in flash IDE to perform duplicating quickly?
but adding "removeDuplicates(aPeople);" after "createfile(thename);" has no effect: in other words, when I push the savefile button, it keeps creating clones of the same objects. What can I do?
I am planning to create Dynamic Boxes, in which may contain buttons, pictures and textboxes in the box. but I'd really want to know are
When a duplicated Movieclip was clicked, I want it to return a value so which I can know what Movieclip was clicked.
How do I manage them in one duplicated movieclip? for example, A duplicated box, and then in that box is an image, textbox and a button MOVIECLIPS, so when dragged, they can be dragged also.
have a imageHolder_mc wich is calling the image from the local drive / server, and this container is inside of PictureHold_mc and that inside of Image01_btn.image01_btn.pictureHold_mc.imageHold01_mcand all this for 1 image tobe displayed in the website. But I am going to have something like 300. This is for example HomePage to ProductPage to SpecificIndividualProduct.I have created an instance but DO I NEED TO DUPLICATE ALL _btn and _mc all the way down? Or is there any better ways.And next question. I have done Home Page with 18 images called from the local drive but despite of Preloader showing 100% loaded page look empty for about 30 sec. and suddenly all images starts popping out ramdomly.
What I am looking to do is: 1. Click a button to activate (mcButton). 2. Only be able to "dot" when its over a certain area(mcCanvas). 3. When you click on the area (mcCanvas), then it places new instances of the dots(mcDots) on the canvas where your pointer is. (new instances on every click) 4. Click the button (mcButton) again to deactivate.
I am first trying to create the action with out needing the area (mcCanvas). This is what I have so far: Code: startDots = new Object(); startDots.onPress = function() { var d:Number = this._parent.getNextHighestDepth(); var dup:MovieClip = mcDots.duplicateMovieClip("dup_"+d, d); attachMovie.dup(); [Code] .....
I need to be able to know when a container is clicked and when a button on the container is clicked. I am loading a swf with buttons into a container sprite. If I add a click event to the container it does not get triggered when a button in the loaded swf is clicked. if I add mouseChildren false to the container the it gets triggered. What I need is both the button in the loaded swf to work as well as the click event on the container.
I have unit A: on a mouseEvent: MouseUp and MouseDown event. I'm going click and dragging objects. Unit A when I pick it up says I have picked up Unit A. I drop it in a location and it stays. GOOD I pick up Unit B and it says I picked up Unit B. I drop it on top of Unit A and it says I have dropped Unit A. NOT GOOD.
I only want to drop unit B, not A. So I looked at the events: Target: The InteractiveObject instance under the pointing device. The target is not always the object in the display list that registered the event listener. Use the currentTarget property to access the object in the display list that is currently processing the event.
So I use currentTarget instead: currentTarget: The object that is actively processing the Event object with an event listener. Except they both return the same. Both will register Unit A, even though I am holding Unit A.
I am having problems dupliating a movie clip. I can make a duplicate from an original but when I edit the duplicate it also modifies what is in the original. (I am just changing the text, thats the only difference between the 2) How come it effects both clips when I only change one?
I have somme mc's on the stage an I want thatto change on mc with antoher by clicking on them. For example if I click on mc1 and than on mc2 than they schould change the positions.
I am trying to create an interactive animation which allows the user to click on objects which then starts a new animation and i'm having trouble with removing the old animation movieclip and adding the new one my code is this:
stop(); var snake:Loader = new Loader(); var box:Loader = new Loader(); var snake2:Loader = new Loader();
[code]....
(its after the box is clicked I want the snake animation to be removed and the 2nd snake animation to be added)now I reckon I dont need the boolean.
I need to add things to the stage and later they get removed, my first flash had a problem because when I removed things from the screen their click handeler didn't get removed, and was slowing the program down.So I've been trying to figure out the best way of making a thing and assigning a click handeler to it that I can remove later.
I've written this as a test piece of code .This basicaly makes 20 circles and adds a click handeler to each that knows which circles been clicked but it dosn't work.The error I get is
TypeError: Error #1006: value is not a function. at test_fla::MainTimeline/addClicks() at test_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()[code]......
I am working on a simple "Drag and Drop" deal and I have encountered an interesting bug that I can't seem to track down. When testing the movie, the FIRST TIME you click and drag any of the objects (black circles in this case) to their target (the big rectangle), all is well. However upon dragging them OUT of the target area, the object appears to "fight back" against being dragged. I am fairly new to Actionscript and can't seem to find the answer for this one elsewhere. I'm going to apologize in advance for the messy script.
I have been trying to deal with sound attachment. Attached is the source file that i am dealing with(I deleted the sound files because the size is too big): Simply, i have to click on the objects first before clicking on the play button. Each objects i clicked represents a different sound and will be stored in the array. So i will be clicking the objects in sequence and when i click on the play button, the music will play. Now comes the problem with my coding, I was unable to let my music coming out one by one at the time in sequence.
if got a question, when designing in the fla, you can create objects convert them to movieclips and then double click on that movieclip so your inside your movieclip. Now i wanted to code everything so no more designing any more just code. Now i searched google for a as3 movieclip in movieclip but cant seem to find anything.
So what i basically want is a code for; the design trick movieclip in movieclip.
If I plan to implement 100 objects on stage to be listen to mouse and keyboard input, is using "function" call responsive enough? How good does eventlistner work?
I tried to make a "drag" and "click" balloon which goes up and with a guy who follows the balloon movement through a line.... No prob, it works, but I need to duplicate the balloon 8 times (i want to create a menu with these balloons).... I tried to duplicate it in a for loop, but it doesn't duplicate the string and the guy.... if somebody has a clue I'll take it...
currently i making this game and objects would spawn at random and be able to click but when de game starts itself, the spawn is correct but i am unable to make it stop when time goes to 0seconds.
