ActionScript 3.0 :: Assigning Functions To The Keyboard
Aug 9, 2011I'm trying to get the arrow keys on the keyboard to control timeline navigation. The AS3 code i'm using works the first time, but then goes a bit crazy and stops working for some reason. Please see my attached fla. In the example you're supposed to be able to navigate along the timeline using the arrow keys (going back and forth) I'm sure there's a really easy solution to this problem but I'm new to AS3 and can't figure it out.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Nested MC's And Assigning Functions?
Aug 16, 2005I have a few rows of movie clips making a menu. Because I will be adding to the number of MC's I use a variable called "menuitems" and run a FOR loops to assign all of these MC's onrollOver, onrollOut and onRelease functions. I'm doing this to save having to assign these functions to them individualy (as they are the same functions). Its works fine, but when the MC is released it is told to jump to frame 2, where there will be nested mc's that need to be able to clicked and rolled over. Because the parent movie has event functions assigned to it they seem to overide them. Is there a way around this? I tried placing a transparent MC on the 1st frame of the movie and trying to assign the onRelease function to the "hotspot" but it doesnt work. Here is my code:
Code:
function buildthumbs () {
for (i=1; i<= menuitems; i++) {[code]...........

(you get the idea...) i want to assign roll over,roll out, press functions to all of theme.g. when you press on one movie, it highlights it.but I am trying to find a summarized way over writing each one out:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Assigning Functions To Button Events Results?
Jun 25, 2009I am in the process of writing a scrolling image viewer that dynamically updates from an xml file. I have written the scroll function (with a lot of help from Kirupa and other sources), and the pictures are updating beautifully, but when it comes to adding the function for the buttons I am encountering an unusual error.
Using the following code:
Code:
initButtons=function(){
for (var i in btnArray) {
var btn:MovieClip = btnArray[i];
[code]....
from this site results in the doClick function being called for each of the buttons in the btn array at runtime, and then not working afterwards.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Loaded Movie Doesn't Execute _root Functions In IE (security Sandbox)?
Apr 23, 2010I'm having some weirdness with a project that I'm doing in IE. Long story short, I've got a basic shell that loads in external SWFs based on user feedback. Once those SWFs get loaded in, they execute functions from the shell (_root) movie. It works great in Firefox, but immediately breaks (no way) in IE. The movie gets loaded in, but none of the functions run.
I suspect it has something to do with security, because, for a variety of reasons, I have to load the SWFs from their absolute location, rather than their relative location. When I test it locally (but loading the movies from their absolute, live location), everything still works, but I get that damn security warning that reads like this:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Import Vs Include - Basic Functions To Be In BasicFunctions.as And The Make A Library For More Specific Functions
Jun 6, 2010I've got a project thats getting a bit big, so Im taking the actionscript out into separate as files. I want all the basic functions to be in BasicFunctions.as and the make a library for more specific functions. I find that a lot of people use the import statement but I cant get that to work with a simple Hello World trace, yet the include statement works fine (see attached). I understand that import/include work differently, but which is the better method? If import, then is that heavier to work with. Any rate, what's the best way to organise code when it gets to the 1000+ lines?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mimicing The Until Functions - Load Of Global Functions In One File?
Nov 4, 2009I'm trying to find a way to have global functions in my as project, similar to how flash does with stuff like the util functions (describeType()...), where you can just call the function wherever you need it. For example:
[Code]...
So when I call Test(), it prints out "hello world" fine. My problem comes in that I can't change the name of the Test function, and I can't add any other functions without compiler errors. Is it possible to have a load of global functions in one file, or do I have to split them up into separate files like in the example? Also, I know that I can make a Global class and call static functions like Code: Global.doSomething() but I'd like to know if there's a way to do it as flash does it (describeType(), getDefinitionByName(), etc), or rather, how does flash do it?

Is possible to add functions to top level's classes in compile-time ?
If not , is there a way to allow this functions to compile ? I dont like to turn off strict mode
ex:
string.removeWhiteSpace();
string.sliceStr("." , "end");
textField.scrollBottom();
this return compile-time error , cause there is no such function , i have to write it in braces :
string["removeWhiteSpace"]();
string["sliceStr"]("." , "end");
