Can I get a letter from the alphabet using a numerical value, without assigning an array with the entire alphabet?
I seem to vaguely remember such a function, or meaby I'm imagining things...?
I've got an inputfield.OnChange Event Handler.When someone types a letter, i want the letter to become 0, then 1, then 2, and so on until 9 and then i want the letter to be there.And when they click on another letter, same effect happens.so at the end if i typed, "testing", each letter scrolls 0-9 like a roll dial and settles on the letter typed.What i've managed to do is make it work, but if i type at normal speed and not slow, i end up getting something like: t32t43g
View 3 RepliesI have a combo box that I'm trying to enter a letter for to search values for that particular letter and I keep getting this error. Every other combo box works fine when a key is pressed so I'm not sure why this particular combo box registers an error. The complete error looks like this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

View 3 RepliesSortting an Array by alphabet or number
say I have a list of array like this
var SDArrayIndex = new Array();
var SDArrayName = new Array();
var SDArrayNum = new Array();
[Code]....
How can I sort all the array by ascending and descending order by both alphabet (SDArrayName) and by numerical (SDArraryIndex) value? Do note that all 3 array had to reflect accordingly
How can I match lower case i and variants like à for example in ActionScript 3?
EDIT: The above is just an example, I am interested in matching all diacritics and special letters in general with a similar Latin Alphabet equivalent.
I have a list (LIST#1) of artists:
2Pac
Adele
Amerie
Beyonce
Jason Aldean
Shakira
The Trews
I also have a list (LIST#2) that has the values #,A-Z - how would I create an alphabet jump? So If a user clicked on "A" in LIST#2 that would automatically scroll to "Adele" at the top of LIST#1 - not filter so he/she could scroll up to view 2Pac or down to view The Tews if they were not in the view yet. Its a standard Flex Spark List with an ArrayCollection as the dataProvider - the artist field is called: "title" along with a unique id field that is not visible to the user.
private function alphabet_listChange(evt:IndexChangeEvent) : void {
var letter:String;
letter = evt.currentTarget.selectedItems[0].toString();
trace(currentDictionary[letter]);
ui_lstLibraryList.ensureIndexIsVisible(currentDictionary[letter]);

I need to be able to 'clean' dynamic string from all symbols (all characters that are not a letter or number..) and replace them with "-"

SO NUMERICAL PARAMETERS DON'T WORK! I not a new to Flash. Have worked more than 5 years with this. Also we've tested such behaviour with latest (downloaded today and yesterday) packages from OFFICIAL url...we've tested this behavoiur on different machines, with different operating systems.
how can i call a numerical value from a frame to another using an input text and use that number as a value for a variable.
View 2 RepliesOnly the number and alphabet is allowed to be contained in the input string, return true or false.

I used to use flash years ago, and have only recently come back to it in my course in university so im very rusty.
What i am looking to do is in flash create two sliders where the user can slide along to their shoe size, and their weight, so that as they do that, the numbers in two other boxes will periodically change to help indicate what size snowboard they need to get.
eg. as user makes shoe size slider go along to larger sizes, at certain points the number in a box labelled board width will increase.
also as an added touch I would like a character to actually increase in size as the slider is used, I'd imagine for this I would need to have a movieclip of the character getting bigger and allow the slider to progress through the frames of this movieclip.

I am trying to develop a simple game for kids in which an Alphabet will be spoken and the kid will have to choose the correct alphabet being displayed on the screen. What I have tried to do is that I have saved each of the sound in a seperate movieclip.
how can I develop the code that randomly choose a movieclip to play the sound and then when the kid click on the correct alphabet, it adds the point and if wrong alphabet is clicked, it gives error.
It's been 2 days and counting since I started to debug my code to make it work and It's eating up all my time and I don't think I'll hit my deadline If I don't start asking.
The gallery is working well, It can load the thumbnails smoothly without returning any error. However, the thumbnails doesn't load as expected, I think because the smallest file size gets to load first. So if thumbnail[3] is the smallest, it'll attach itself to thumbnail_container[0] which it should always be thumbnail[0] to thumbnail_container[0] and so on.
