ActionScript 2.0 :: Function That Gets One Movieclip At A Time?
Oct 5, 2007
I have a bunch of mc's, called like mc1, mc2, mc3 and so on.
What I'd like to do is to tween those in order, with the tween class. So when mc1 is finished, I want mc2 to start and so on.
This is of course possible when writing something like
Code:
var testTween:Tween = new Tween(...);
testTween.onMotionFinished = function():void{
var testTween:Tween = new Tween(..);
}
But when you got like 36 pieces or something, this tween gets really big. Is it possible to use some kind of loop to get the same result? Or maybe a function that gets one movieclip at a time?

I have a movieclip which has 3 frames inside it. These each have a movie clip on them which is different. There are three frames on the above layer. The first two have code on them which check the date and time and then skips to the next frame if a specified date is reached. The final frame is just a stop as its the final option. So Its works great in as2 but I am trying to rebuild in AS3. I think I am nearly there but since you cant have two of the same function its throwing a wobbler - also when I rename the 2nd function (on the 2nd frame) it wont compile correctly throwing all sorts of errors.
Code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, functionOne);
function functionOne(event:ENTER_FRAME):void{
var today:Date = new Date ();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear()
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2011,05,22);

I'm trying to run a function where after an amount of time of the mouse being idle a movieclip plays, then if the mouse moves another one plays. I have gotten my code to do this, but the last function runs over and over as the mouse is moving. I want it to run once, so the movieclip plays once. how do I do this?
here is my code,
standstill = 0;
lastmove = 0;
timeout = 3000; // 1000 ticks = 1 sec

I'm trying to run a function when after a specific amount of time of the mouse being idle a movieclip plays, then when the mouse becomes active again a different movieclip plays. I have gotten my code work for the most part, but the last function runs over and over as the mouse is moving. I want it to run once, so the movieclip plays once.
here is my code:

My goal is to change the time for setInterval each time the function is called. Planning to replace myInterval = 5000; with a randomized number. My problem is getting setInterval to recognize the myInterval variable from the function.

I have an AS3 program that calls a function multiple times. The function must return multiple variables, so I created a class for the function to declare an object containing all of these variables. For example, here's my class:
package
{
public class PER
{
[Code].....
Let's say the calling program calls the function, which returns the variables into data_set1 (where data_set1 depends on input variables arg1, arg2, arg3) using:
var data_set1:PER = function_name(arg1, arg2, arg3);
The calling program does some stuff, then calls the function again, but returns the variables into a new variable name, data_set2:
var data_set2:PER = function_name(arg4, arg5, arg6);
My intention is that data_set1 and data_set2 are different (e.g. not linked together).
My question is, given that arrays are passed by reference, will data_set1 be modified to agree with data_set2 upon the 2nd function call? Why or why not?

What I have is a movieclip and a button in scene 1 (which is the main timeline).There is an actionscript layer also on the main timeline. what I want to do is when I click the button, it would do a nextFrame(); in the movieclip timeline instead of the main timeline.

time-out feature on my timeline? I have certain spots in my timeline where i want a time-out to occur after 5 seconds of the user not clicking anywhere or doing anything. I am familiar with mouse-listener functions... but only used them for something that i was going to make time-out after an already pre-determined time...

Is there any way to make a function run only one time? to be specific:
ActionScript Code:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
playerHp();
}
[Code]...
but i have a lot of these kind of functions and that would be a lot of vars... is there another way?

I am new to AS and need to know the relation between position and time in AS.
If we have this code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
speed = 1;
this._x += speed;
}
nd a framrate 16 fps, how can we calculate the time it takes to move the MC from position A to position B? I mean how can vi control the speed here as a function of time (say as a function av fps)?

I have a function that calls another function once every 30 seconds. Each time it calls the function it updates the variables each time. My problem is that it only wants to call the function one time. All the variables are correct but it wont call it again.
Code:
//----LEVEL CHANGER----
newLevel = function(e_freq, s_freq, current_level){
clearInterval(_root.spawnInt);

I am trying to activate a rollOver-function when the mouse rolls over a movieclip inside of a movieclip.On the main window (root), first you rollOver a button where a window shows up with more options (movieclips).From stage, my first movieclip is called "catapultas_read_more" which leads to amother movieclip called "pic1_mc". The label that is going to play when mouse over on pic1_mc is "rollOn".I tried this.gotoAndPlay("rollOn); directly inserted to the movieclip, but the movieclip inside pic1_mc never starts

I have a piece of code, and in that function i call to another function that has 3 parameters.now i've decided that i want that last function to be called after a couple of secs, instead of immedietly. I can't simply use a timer, and addEventlistener, because then i cant give parameters.

I'm having this trouble with Tweenlite. I downloaded it and started to use it since it was quite easier to do the tint morph, and that part works great! However, one thing I've noticed is that for some reason, If i activate more then one thing that has a function at a time, it will freeze up most of the time.
For example. When you click on one of the links in the Nav Bar, it uses Tween Lite to scroll to the page you selected, with out trouble. So after I had done that, i wanted to make it so that Upon rollover, the Links in the Navbar would change color. Now they both still do what they are told yet 90% of the time one of them freezes, whether its the page that scrolls halfway and stops, or the color on the link halfway to its final destination color. Is there a known fix for this or is this the tradeoff?

I have a function that draws a rectangle on the screen (see createInfoPanel())While drawing rectangle, I am adding 2 text fields on it.But as you may guess, it is adding those immediately. I want to delay adding these text fields, then I want to remove these panels after a while. The problem is, when I set an interval or timer, they won't work after I using once (I had to stop them by clearing/removing, it didn't set them again).Since my panel is being created each time image changes, I need them to work every time image changes.
So, I have 2 questions:1- How can I re-set interval each time my createInfoPanel() function works? It won't work anymore after setting and claring once. 2- You can see infoPanel.addChild(titleField); line in addInfoPanel() function. How can I work a smooth animation here? I mean, text appears slowly?

I have this MouseEvent function that I have totally no idea why it fired twice. Is there a way I can disable the function in a period of time? I tried disabling the button, but seems like it directly called the function and does not trigger from the button.
Addition info:When I add in more object to the array, the function fired more time
The Class the handles the button
package classes

import flash.display.MovieClip;
