and why would you have to use an extra curly brace on the second statement to be exeucuted?
wouldn.t one do the job followed by a semicolon???
dash.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x += ((Stage.width / 2) - this._x) / 5;
this._y += ((Stage.height / 2) - this._y) / 5;

So far, everything works well, but I am having problems getting curly apostrophes to display (�) instead I get a blank where the apostrophe is in my XML file. If I use a straight apostrophe (') it works but I can't get the curly apostrophe to work.What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to hyperlink in Actionscript 3.0, I thought this would would work.
goToHotmail_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK. gotoGoogle);
function gotoGoogle(e:MouseEvent):void

But I'm getting 'use simple identifyer' and that my closing brace is unexpected.
How can I force flex to cuddle my curly-braces instead of putting them on a new line?

My code is on the main timeline.I call a function loop to draw lines between them.The lines are drawing between the right x, y values BUT between those values on the main stage, not those values within the kite.For example, dot1_mc is at x100, y0 inside kite. the line that should go from its center, draws from stage x100, 0.How do I draw the lines inside kite so that they draw between the dots?Heres my code that draws the linesPHP Code:
function loop():void{ lineDrawing.graphics.clear(); var a:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot1_mc.x, kite_mc.dot1_mc.y); var b:Point = new Point(kite_mc.dot2_mc.x, kite_mc.dot2_mc.y); var c:Point = new

View 7 RepliesI am trying to create a mindmap where the user can drag points about the screen. I have gotten as far as drawing the line via actionscript, and drag+drop the points (defined as movie clips on stage). This is the existing script - I don't know how to get the lines to follow the points. Something to do with ENTER_FRAME or updateAfterEvent?

I have two lines. One is straight and one is curved. Both were created with the Flash Graphics interface. How would I compare the different Y value for the curved line for any given X. In other words, how do I find a point on curve if I used the CurveTo method.
View 2 RepliesI have a function ( basically its the click on a reset buttons ) that sets back quite a loooooot of variables and text boxes. But after ( I think 200 lines ) , actionscript simply stops with that particular function and doesnt even give me an error.So it looks like there is a lines per function limit or something like that.I also tried it with an external .as but its the same.Creating functions for all these commands didnt work either.The only thing I can do is move a few lines up so that they get processed earlier.... ( but the last few still don't work )I even tried to make a function with 300 lines of myTextField.text = "hello"and a line: myTextField.text = "how are you" at the endDidnt work... it stayed at hello.
