I want to loop through an array of mc's, and assign each a onRelease function. I have the following code but the trace inside the function doesn't seem to find the array.I understand why but what is the correct way of doing this?
ActionScript Code:
var theArray:Array = new Array();
var j:Array = new Array();[code].......
About making a pallet loaded by xml and selecting a color you change another mc but the action of button it does not make:
ActionScript Code:
x = 8;
y = 32;
ancho = 28;
alto = 28;
num_columnas = 8;
System.useCodepage = true;
XML.prototype.ignoreWhite = true;

I'm creating an image gallery and the below code is what I have come up with to create a 'container' movieclip which dynamically adds a number of thumbnails, each as a separate movie clip, one after another vertically inside the container (which is contained inside a 'main' movieclip - note the existence of mc1 is to enable me to mask the container - this is worknig so you can disregard it).(Note the number of clips is currently hardcoded to 7)
Code:
image = new Array(); //array of movie clips to be contained
imgLink = new Array();

Is there any solution to make this work so that the function carrega_movie uses the temporary value of i assigned in the for loop?
I am designing and coding a navigation menu at the moment, and so far I have got the button instances to duplicate for each of the menu items, and set widths, positioning values and RollOver/RollOut functions. However, I would ideally like to include the onRelease button functions in the for loop too - as they are all the same apart from the variable "i". Here is the code snippet:
ActionScript Code:
for (i=1;i<(_root.noofmenuitems+1);i++){
duplicateMovieClip("mc", "mc"+i, i);
[code]...
Now my problem is that by the time the onRelease function is called, the for loop has been completed and the value of i returned is the last i value from the loop (_root.noofmenuitems+1). The this["mc"+i] part obviously works, because the trace function is called when I click any of the menu items.The problem is that I have 6 menu items, and when I click any of them, the trace function returns "test 7" - not the corresponding i values for each button.
I'm trying to display thumbnails with a for loop but i would like that each thumbnail have an onrelease action.
here is my scriptnote: i use trace() for look if my loop works aswith the onrelease function)
HTML Code:
var posX = 163;//1st position
var posY = 103;//1st position
var Dec = 0;// var for the space between thumbnails set to 0

I have the problem with creating multiply functions. I want to create onRelease function for every item in array that will navigate to specific URL from xml.Here is the code:
for(var i=0;i<numOfItems;i++)
{
var t = home.attachMovie("item","item"+i,i+1);[code]....
The problem is that the trace for url will work if I put nodes[0] for example instead of [i].
I hope the title of my post isn't confusing, I wasn't sure how to phrase it. [code]...
View 1 RepliesI'll try to make this as clear as possible. Let's say i have 4 "classes".
[Code]...
Let's say now i use a loop to create 8 obj. I'd like to assign a class to each obj in function of an array like : array = [class1, class2, class1, class3, class2, class4... ] so obj0 class' should be array[0]
Sure this will be a simple fix, and I'm just not seeing the wood for the trees. I have a movie with a movieclip called scroller_mov. Inside it are 15 movieclips named pic1 thru pic15.
My code is on one frame, on the same level as scroller_mov. Just want to dynamically assign a click action to the pic1 - pic15 movieclips! have tried hardcoded links and dynamic, but no joy! Everything else works fine.

I want to loop through a movie clip and assign a function to each of the clip's child movieclips. when i do a for...in loop and then do a typeof() trace I get "string" and obviously it won't let me assign lets say 'onRollOver' functions to the children.

what I'm trying to do is to get 4 movieclipps (leaf1, leaf2, leaf3, leaf4) to play the sound that is attached to them when is dragged onto another movieclip (NatureTarget) and the play button is pressed so that the sounds are played in the order they are dragged on. I know I need to use an array and the push function and a loop...
View 1 Replies[code]I've tried some various things (including "this"), but basically, I need to loop through data held in arrays to create several dynamically named functions on the the fly.
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering which is faster in AS3:
array.forEach( function(v:Object, ...args):void
{ ... } );
Or
var l:int = array.length;
for ( var i:int = 0; i < l; i++ ) { ... }
I'm tring to add a onRelease event into every button I have, code like
for(var i = 1; i <= totalPage; i++){
_root['button'+i].onRelease = function(){gotoPage(i-1)};

why its doesnt work. I have to do like following
button1.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(0)};
button2.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(1)};
button3.onRelease = function(){gotoPage(2)};

I am having a hard time trying to use an onRelease event handler inside a for loop. Basically, I am developping a custom player for articulate presenter using flash and AS2.This code is generating a movie clip in a for loop for each line in the sidebar, with slide title and slide number parsed from a XML.Until here, all works fine.But when I try to generate the onRelease event handler to play the wanted slide when I click on the line, the value inside the onRelease is always the highest value of i.Looks like the onRelease evaluates i only when I click on the line, after all the clips have been generated.[code]I have to find a way to capture the value of i for each clip.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to have a bunch of buttons generated in a for loop, and I want the onRelease function defined so that each button has a unique e-mail address attached to it.As it stands now, all the buttons are being assigned the last e-mail address in the XML file. I've got more code in my actual file that creates text fields on top of the buttons, and they're displaying the correct info, so it's only the onRelease function that isn't working...Here's the abridged code:

I have a loop to create clip buttons w/jpg images on face && load same jpgs into main viewer clip. Problem is, the mc buttons won't respond to onRelease.

I am making a few drag and drop games that work great when I hard code them. When I use a FOR loop and name = eval("something"+i+"_mc") everything works great. I can assign startDrag to all MCs, I can make it stop drag, and so on. But when I try to do a hitTest, it only works for the highest value of [i] in the FOR loop. It will still assign text to all the dynamic text boxes in each MC, and do the dragging stuff, but it won't do a hitTest for anything other than the highest value.
I've searched several sites and have found things about Delegate.create, using [this.i] rather than just [i], and much more. The problem is it always partially or half works. It won't just break, it will either let both drag and only acknowledge one hitTest, or ignore the stopDrag or whatever else. Either they both partially work, or only the highest [i] value is acknowledged.

View 1 RepliesHere my attempt at creating the Kirupa's Spinning Images gallery. I'm so damn close it somewhat works, I'm still having trouble with the rotational calculations. Not sure, but I think I might be passing the wrong values from the onRelease to the enterFrame loop?

I have a number of 'items' (mc's) contained in a scrolling mc that can be drag-dropped to other matching mc's. The items names are listed in an array and I wish to assign variables of suitability and feedback to each mc from the array also. I think this is called an associative array?
Having some trouble correctly referencing the items from the array. To explain, here's a working script with a simple array and an inefficient workaround:

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands[code]...
