i have like more than 5 movieclips on the stage .. and it is draggable and when you drag it and hit the target movieclip this movieclip set to _visible = false; i want to know how i can remember this movieclip so when a new movieclip is drag to the target the last movieclip that was set to _visible = false now can be true and the new movieclip is the one that would be set to false
View 3 RepliesI have a function that states when movieclip1 is dragged and hits a line then it stops the drag, however it seems to stop the entire drag function in the swf on the other movieclips even though they arent called in the function.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a movieclip that rotates 180 degrees in one frame of a flash game using the following code:

my_mc._rotation=my_mc._rotation+180;
if(my_mc._rotation==360){

I don't wanna force you to reading a long, boring text, so I'll simply show you my algorithm.
1.Place an object on the stage at a random position.
2. Move it randomly around the stage.
3. When the button is clicked, make the object stop moving.
4. Make the object repeat the path it had gone so far right to the starting point.
5. Do it by using two arrays. One to keep all the x positions of the object, and the second one to keep all the y positions.
6. Then, loop through these arrays and set the object's x and y to what the arrays hold.However, my object isn't moving when I click the button.
I used a code to have so when someone clicks on a button, it takes them to a frame, and next time they visit, the flash file remembers where they were last using SharedObject. The problem its buggy. Sometimes it works and sometimes other objects like text disappearHeres the code.1st frame looks for the Shared Object, then goes to either 2 or 3 and 3 by default if no Shared Object is found
Code:
var Frame:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("MSCurrentFrame")
function StoreData() {

I need a flash program which can remember all the boxes that have been clicked on.
Imagine i have 5 boxes. They are all white, then I click on and it turns red. I want the program to remember that and store the data in a small file.
Basically say I have 4 areas in my website. There are 4 buttons that correspond to the four areas.
On the main screen are outlines of boxes. Each section will have a different sized rectangle so I want the boxes to transform to the new sized box.
So say you click on number 2 and you are on section 1. The main box will change size to the shape in number 2 from number 1. Then say you click on button 4. The box will then change to the shape of the box for section 4 from the size of the previous box.
How do you get it to remember where you are in order to transform to the area where you click the button?
I've got a movieclip which I am tweening around the stage to various positions, depending on what buttons the user presses.My problem is, that currently each time the user presses a button, the movie clip shoots back to it's original position (placed on the time line), then tweens to the new position dictated by the button.
This is not what I want..I actually want the movie clip to tween from position to postition (not shoot back to it's original position each time).. I guess I need it to remember where the movie clip currently is, and then move to the new position..
here is my code for the tween..
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
ButtonOne.onRelease = function() {

I have attached the .fla that I am working on. I understand that it is very basic and does not use class files and so on.... but I am just applying the finishing touches so that it actually works.Inside the quiz movieclip is some code that makes people's names and scores be entered onto the leaderboard. This works perfectly fine, however when I close the SWF and take the quiz again, the people that were previously on the leaderboard have disapeared!Is there anyway to make the best people stay on the leaderboard for future uses?but the code that is in question is:From frame 65 of quiz:
Code:
Mouse.show();
finishTime = minutes+":"+seconds+":"+hundredths;

i created a functionality for minimizing and maximizing it (on the stage only)by keeping the whole application in a movie clipand then animating that movie clip on press of a buttonnow the issue is thatwhen i reverse the playback of timeline(to expand the application)it expands in its initial statebut i want it to remember the last state of my nested movie clip(10 lvls of nestin ) and expand in in that state.
View 4 RepliesI Have the drag and drop working where you drag a text movieclip onto a picture of an object movieclip but having some problems. I know its something to do with the hitTest function but when i drop the word "cow" onto the picture of a dog it actually says this is correct by displaying the word cow above the picture of the dog when instead it shouldnt allow me to drop the text onto the picture which doesnt match.
Basically i need to know how to seperate the drag hitTest function for the DogPic/DogText so that it has its own function to detect a hit. At the moment you can see in the below code I have 1 hittest fucntion detecting both collisions when they need seperate functions I tried making a seperate function for each but it didnt work

I am trying to load variables from a text file, and have them available from then onwards in the movie, globally so to speak.
While I can read the variable values in a loader function which executes when the text file is loaded, I don't seem to be able to keep those variables available afterwards.
I have a file where there is a magnet being dragged horizontal. When the magnet is on the left there is a electrical current flowing down, when it's at the right the current flows up. What I want is to have the two electrial currents play at certain points during the drag.So in the beginning the 1st current plays, which is a separate MC. Then once the user drags the magnet to the right the 2nd current MC begins to play and the 1st one becomes invisible. Then the cycle needs to repeat once the magnet gets dragged back to the left.[code]

View 1 RepliesI need to drag more than one Mc at the time:
n.b. emc2 is a mc on the main timeline. This code is in a nested MC.
prnt: MovieClip = this.parent as Movieclip;
function drag(e:MouseEvent):void{
if((e.type == "mouseDown") && (GlobalVar.stat == "clicked")){
this.startDrag();
prnt.emc2.startDrag();
} if((e.type == "mouseUp") && (GlobalVar.stat == "clicked")){
this.stopDrag();
prnt.emc2.stopDrag();
GlobalVar.drag = false;

View 1 RepliesI'm attempting to make an AS3 class that allows me to drag an object with easing. I've looked around the net and put this together.I have created this class as startDrag() doesn't allow easing. I've almost got it working but there is a problem where the registation point of the movielclip snaps to the mouse position (this is the equivalent of having "lockcenter:boolean" in startDrag() set to "true")this is the problem bit in my script:
targetX = mouseX;
targetY = mouseY;

package classes{

Goal: Now, I want to be able to drag and drop this character movieclip around the stage as I please, leaving him wherever I want, with all of his movements still going on AND the mouseover movements as well.Logic: Since, when the mouse is over this character, I need the drag option area to be a little x or any object close to him, so it doesnt interfere with the movieclips mouse over effects. (could simply be a little rectangle saying: drag me)Problem: Iave no idea how to do this... I am only now starting with this Actionscript world! Donī get me wrong, I am not lazy, Ive been researching but couldnt find exactly what Im looking for.
View 2 RepliesI have a movie clip that I am dragging onto another movie clip and i want it to stay put. But once I add in another 'OR' statement in the if statement, it freaks out and doesn't work. Why is this?
This code works:
btn1.onRelease=function(){
stopDrag();
if(eval(this._droptarget) != btn1Hold) {
this._x=this.startX;
this._y=this.startY;
} else{
//CODE
}}
This code DOES NOT work:
Code:
btn1.onRelease=function(){
stopDrag();
if( (eval(this._droptarget) != btn1Hold) || (eval(this._droptarget) != btn2Hold) ) {//CHANGED LINE
[Code] .....
For whatever reason it doesn't like the extra 'OR' in the if statement! why!?
I am basically trying to create a menu which can be dragged across the stage. I have created a main movieclip which acts as the holder. This is the movieclip that gets dragged around. Within that movieclip there are 6 buttons. I am using the MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP eventlisteners to control the dragging however it is not working correctly.
When i compile to SWF it is fine. I click down the mouse button on the movieclip and It will start dragging however if i let go of the button it registers a click. Obviously i don't want it to do that but i'm not sure why it is registering a click as i thought that i was just releasing the button...
The second problem is if i move the mouse cursor off of the movieclip but i still have the mouse button pressed it will continue dragging the movieclip about, even if i then let go of the button.[code]...
I created a movie clip (which I add to the main class of the scene in FlashCS5 with addchild). Its registration point is on its upper left. Its class is:[code]The problem is that it is not moving properly, like jittering.

I need to drag only horizontally.
I dragged and dropped my movie clip on to the stage, and it doesn't play. Other movie clips play, but the one I need to use doesn't play. I even added a function that is supposed to play the clip when you click on another clip, and it doesn't work although others do. I've attached the fla for reference, the clip that I'm trying to use is wipe3.
