View 7 RepliesI am having referencing a linked movieclip.
I have a scroll pane with the instance name menuScroll. The scrollPane loads a linked movie clip called menuDropMC with the same instance name. MenuDropMC also loads several instances of a linked movie clip called moduleNameMC with the same instance name. The moduleNameMC contains a button called moduleBtn. I am trying to disable this button from root.
The moduleNameMCs are generated dynamically and are followed by a number using a for loop.("moduleNameMC"+i)
e.g. moduleNameMC0, moduleNameMC1, moduleNameMC2, etc.
I have tried the following:
_root.menuScroll.menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBt n.enabled = false;
menuScroll.menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enab led = false;
menuDropMC.moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enabled = false;
moduleNameMC0.moduleBtn.enabled = false;
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/abc', since linkage identifiers must be unique.**Warning** The linkage identifier 'ComboBox' was already assigned to the symbol 'ComboBox', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'GUI MC/Combo Boxes/def', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.
I have attached a video on a frame of my website in Flash. When I preview the movie the film plays as it should.But when I export the Fla. as a Swf. file it then doesn't have the movie there anymore?It does show this error:
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'Video/FLVPlayback', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', since linkage identifiers must be unique.
I really don't know what that refers too.
I'm having trouble referring to a dynamically generated variable...

The Quartz class is an extension to the movieClip class. It adds an image to the stage. I want to be able to write code to add 3 images (without having to do it manually) and access their x and y properties.The error on is for line 2 and says: error 1078: Label must be a simple identifier.
Anybody knows a way of setting the linkage identifier of the movie clip symbol in the Object.registerClass dynamically?
If I write "LinkageId" between " " it works fine...
Object.registerClass("LinkageId",MyClass);
BUT if I don't use " " and try to set the contents of a variable, it doesn't work
myLinkId = "XXX";
Object.registerClass(myLinkId ,MyClass);
I've already tried to concatenate " " to myLinkId and it still doesn't work...
I need to dynamically register lots of MCs to myClass
Flex complains if I want to create an object from a library symbol with linkage: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method [linkage name]. So to avoid this, I create a class for that symbol, in this case extending BitmapData using Flex's new ActionScript Class feature. Flex create that class for me and the constructor looks like this: public function CustomBitmapData(width:int, height:int, transparent:Boolean=true, fillColor:uint=null)

I'm trying to create a linkage to swap movie clip dynamically. I already create a linkage and after my movie clip symbol actuall say Export: contact_idea. But when I try to attachMovie("contact_idea"). It does nothing. Is there anyway that I can test that the linkage is actuall linked?

Lets say I have 5 text boxes that are named t1, t2, t3 etc. I would like to use the variable "i" in the array below as part of the identifier to populate the field is this possible to use an incrementing variable as part of the instance identifer? for(var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {t(i).text = i;}
View 3 Repliesi have an externally loaded .swf file i'm loading into a container mc with a unique identifier. that .swf file itself is dynamically loading a .txt file into a text boxow do you script the .txt file to have a random identifier? a code on the actual .txt file or actionscript on the buttons that call the .txt file?i have a few buttons that when pressed load a new .txt file into the text box called newsBox. the buttons have this code:
on (release) {
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("newsitem1.txt");

Before Actionscript 3 I did my sounds for my MCs through Linkage but it tells me I can no longer set an identifier for my sounds. What do I do now?

View 1 RepliesI could not find this one. So say a movieclip is called Background.I have some code in its timeline's first frame and i want to use trace to print its prototype/identifier name.how can i do it?could not find anything even on googling.May be I'm searching for the wrong keyword.
What I mean to find out is what is shown in the Identifier section of the symbol properties.
i have an externally loaded .swf file i'm loading into a container mc with a unique identifier. that .swf file itself is dynamically loading a .txt file into a text box.how do you script the .txt file to have a random identifier? a code on the actual .txt file or actionscript on the buttons that call the .txt file.i have a few buttons that when pressed load a new .txt file into the text box called newsBox. the buttons have this code:[code]what i want to make sure is that when called upon, the new .txt file is loaded and not the one on the user's cache.
View 2 RepliesIs there any way to get some UNIQUE, unchanging value from the user's computer, such as MAC address etc, via ActionScript? IP Addresses change too often, and even though MAC addresses are fakeable, at least it is a bit of protection.I can find many uses for this, including making it more difficult for people to copy over SharedObject data from computer to computer.
View 3 RepliesI have a question regarding the use of variable identifiers when using SharedObjects, I will explain. I want to have the identifiers of a SharedObject as variable names, so: I create a variable: var destinationLoc = ["destination"+mySharedObject.data.numRuns]; I write to SharedObject: mySharedObject.data.destinationLoc=destination;
Unfortunately the above script does not see the variable, destinationLoc as a variable and instead views destinationLoc as a "hard-coded" identifier Is there a way to create a variable sharedObject identifier?

I have an xml and it has items, you can trace the items in Flash, but how do I call them to allow me to identify that object getting clicked on the stage?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<menus>
<menu id="1">

I have an 'if' statement that has decided that it is going to be difficult. I'm getting the following errors:
1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before greaterthan.

My xml file contains a tag<bla:red>.I would like to go through all the content of an xml file. Something like:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i:int=0;i<5;i++){

}
But i get error that label has to be a simple identifier. In my case i can NOT change the tag name. How can i do this?
I have some problems quite some time. My problem is in flex 4. I'm working on an application for our business. This is the code where I have an error:

I'm a beginner to Action Script and I'm going through the lessons in the Adobe Classroom in a Book. I cannot get past this one code line error:
Expecting identifier before a right paren.
Of course I'm just copying what the book is giving me to do the lesson. I have already come across a line of code that is wrong in the book, so now I'm thinking this line may be wrong as well.
I'd like to use a variable I'm pulling from XML to compleet a property like so[code]...
I could of course construct some large switch statement to account for every blending mode, but why wont this work - and how might it?
Code: Select allstop();
door.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, go_door):void;
function go_door (e:MouseEvent);
{
door.gotoAndPlay(door_open);
}
Flash is giving me this error message.Scene 1, Layer 'code', Frame 1, Line 21078: Label must be a simple identifier.
evrytime inad a error message "label must be a simple identifier" i gave button instance the name "btAnimate"
View 7 RepliesI'd like to first say that I can program in C++ but this is a little new to me. So I did an internet search for this problem and I received "the main reason you get this error" and a couple other suggestions but never does it say what the error exactly means. why one would get the Label must be a simple identifier error on this line of code?
View 1 RepliesGoogling and trying, I've found: Variables identifiers cant begin with numbers and can only contain letters, numbers and the _ character. I was wondering if there is a length restriction.
