ActionScript 2.0 :: Make One Instance Independent From Another?
Jan 4, 2006
I was working on a Flash 8 work using the Tween Class with the help from the Kirupa and gotoAndLearn() tutorials.
Here's the actionscript code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.filters.GlowFilter;
[Code].....
Now, my problem is that when I move my mouse over one of the object, the other object also reacts. Say I roll my mouse over text2, text1 reacts as if the object too has a mouse over it. Another problem is that only text2 is showing the tween class.
I want these two instances to be independent from each other while at the same time not having to create actionscripts that is exclusively dedicated to each instances (if possible). I want to make sure that if I have the mouse over one of the instance, it will be the only instance to react.

Is there a way in AS2 to stop a child movie clip taking on the parents alpha value? I want the parent movie clip's alpha to change on rollover but not the movieclip I am attaching from library via linkage.
Is there a command out there that stops this parent/child inheritance?

With the Flash IDE, I must create an AIR project for Android mobile devices (NOT tablets): my problem is that I would like to make it resolution-independent. Android-equipped mobile devices are many and they may have different screen dimensions.
So, first of all, I would like to know if I must choose a particular stage dimension in my Flash project. Secondly, I would like to know how to adapt the content to the screen resolution and if it has any drawbacks (stretching, etc.) that can damage the appearance of the app.

On my Flash site, I'm trying to make my my navagation bar run on a independent timeline from the rest of the content on my site. I built my navagation bar in a movie clip, because they use independent timelines. However I can't seem to figgure out how to make the buttons in the movie clip effect the timeline of the main file. Is there something I'm missing? Or am I just going about this the wrong way?

Does creating a new instance of an Object that uses an identical name to an older instance, delete the previous instance? Or should the original instance be deleted first? The code uses a ridiculous amount of XML vars. Isn't it less memory intensive to parse the XML and save the properties to an Object, and then delete the XML Object, rather than keep the XML Object around and reference it's child nodes directly? Is it better form to break up a huge XML file (>600lines/3200vars) into smaller chunks?

I am finding this quite difficult to explain, but I will try my best I currently have this code, which I will explain afterwards
var myMovieClip = new contact_mc();
var myMovieClip2 = new aboutUs_mc();
var myMovieClip3 = new Join();
var myMovieClip4 = new ourWork_mc();
[code]....
See an ideal thing would be having the URLRequest for both swf's at the top of the page, and container_mc.addChild(myLoader); within the functions. I read somewhere that the loader needs to be added straight away otherwise there will be issues with stage references or something.

I want a website to have two independently embedded swf files, the reason being: I want one anchored to the center, and the other anchored to the left side. However, I still want information to be communicated between the two. How could I do this?

Basically I want to have a scrollable map ie. you can grab it with your mouse and move it. Exactly the way google maps works (although I'm not terribly concerned about the inertia effect that google maps has). But I also want to have objects on the map, that when the map is moved, they also move, but I can grab them individually also, and move the objects. Obviously when I nest these objects in the background symbol, they lose their independence and therefore can't be moved separately from the map. And I've been having difficulty making the objects follow the map, while maintaining their own position (they just snap to the maps position).

I don't understand why the movements of the second puppet are summed to the movements of the first one[url]...
In other words, I would like the puppets to be completely independent from each other. [code]...

What I want to do is to let each of those three image windows to rotate a set of separate images independently of each other using actionscript.In other words, the image window on the left will be rotating about 5 to 10 images while the image in the middle will do the same but with a different set of images and the same for the image window on the right

I'm trying to control the volume of an flv in a video player I'm making. I want it's volume control to be independent of any other content on the page. The Video object is in a Component if that makes any difference.
I am able to adjust the volume of the root (aka MovieClip(this.parent).soundTransform ) but I cannot do it to the component itself.
I have tried applying the SoundTransform to the component itself (which is not a MovieClip I know), I have tried placing the Video object in a MovieClip inside the component and attempted to adjust the volume that way with no success...(obviously there's a lot more code than this)
Code:
_videoDisplay = new Video();
_videoVolume = new SoundTransform(0); // just using 0 so I can tell when it works
this.soundTransform = _videoVolume; // *this refering to the component
[Code].....

I'm building a website that is basically an art gallery. I have a movieclip that I'm placing dynamically Code:[code]This wall movieclip is basically a wall background image with artwork hung randomly at different sizes and locations... more of a collage vs a grid.I've manually placed the artwork mc's on the wall since it's such a random layout. Each artwork mc has an instance name of "art1" "art2" etc.I thought about trying to use xml, but since I'm not dynamically loading the thumbnails, I don't know how I would reference the thumbnail to the full size image?when you click on the mc "art1", make "art1" the value of the variable "currentArt" then look at the loaded XML and populate a DetailView_mc with:art1 info.[code]

So I understand that, to get frame rate independent movement I have to multiply the base speed by (1000/delta). It works on values that represent speed, but when I try this with an acceleration variable, e.g. gravity, it won't work, it isn't even frame rate independent. Is there a different formula for acceleration variables, or am I forgetting something else?

I hope that this topic hasn't been discussed ad nauseum; I searched the forums for similar discussion threads to no avail. I completed the Flash MX object movement tutorial found at [URL].I then wanted to add a second instance of the beetle symbol to the stage and assign it both a new instance name and a different set of keyboard keys that would control its movement.
When I test the movie, I am able to control each symbol instance with its assigned keys. (The instances move and rotate as they should.) However, when the first instance rotates and moves to the right, the second instance "slides" with it. That is, the second instance's assigned keys have not been pressed and it doesn't rotate, but it moves right in unison with the other instance.

It may be easier to actually do it but I'm not going to. Is the frame rate of loaded movies controlled by the main swf or are the fps all independent?

I have a symbol that I have already used and I would like to use the same symbol in another frame(s), except that when i edit the symbol the original object also edits, for example if i delete a part of it, it also deletes in the object that I have already placed, I have tried the 'duplicate symbol' method but nonetheless my symbol still gets modified and changes the way I want it to show it in certain frames.

I'm sure it's been posted about a million times before but I've been trying vars searches and seem to always be coming up with answers to do with the exact opposite of what I'm trying to achieve! I'm creating a flash Movie that is 800 x 600 pixels in size and I'd like to fix that size so that it will always be 800 x 600 regardless of the screen resolution of the computer running it. At the moment it seems to scale by default and is winding up looking ugly on other people's computers.
