ActionScript 2.0 :: Storing Initial Position Of MC?
Apr 17, 2004
Okay maybe its because I've been working on this all day and can't think straight any longer but this seems like it should be really obvious and I'm getting frustrated that I can't think of how to do it.I have a movie clip sitting just off stage. When the file is first launched I want to record the x position of this movie clip in a variables, say startX. When a button is pressed (and there are several of these) I am using Voetsoejba's easing code (brilliant) twice, once to move an MC just in the x direction (easeX):(on the main timeline, whre movetxt and content are the two MCs)
Code:
//record initial positions
menux = movetxt._x;
[code].....

I am using a ScrollPane in my application(viz., instance name is: myScrollPane). When I view the contents of the ScrollPane, it shows them perfectly. My issue is: When I try to view data present inside the ScrollPane, if I move the Vertical-ScrollBar of the ScrollPane to middle(or somewhere from top to down) and then click on Submit button(viz., instance name is: submit_btn), then its Vertical ScrollPosition must be reset from middle(or any position where we leave it before) to top(or initial position). Hence, I need to move the Vertical ScrollPosition of ScrollPane to top (or) initial position. Everytime, I need to refresh the VerticalScrollBar Position when I click on the submit button. How to do it?

I have created a simple audio player to play continuously even if the page is refresh it will play continuously.This is my code to store audio position in flash Temp memory
MySharedObject.data.audioPos = mySndChannel.position;
MySharedObject.flush();
MyProblem,When the player starts the sndPosition is null, so it was not playing. If I set some value, when I am refreshing it will not continue from the last position. How can I set the initial position to play from the start?

I have a slider in my movie (depositAmount) and in the component inspecter it has Initial value for the slider. In my first frame I have an input field for depositAmount and i want the position of the slider button to reflect that. So if the min and max deposit amount are 0 and $10,000 respectively and the user inputs deposit Amount as $2000, I'd like to position the slider button 1/5th of the way across the slider. Is that possible? At the moment the slider button will just reflect the initial value position.

I'm trying to store the initial X position of five movieClips in an Array by looping through it. Should be no worries, but I only end up with "Undefined" when I trace the array afterwards...

The issue i'm having is that i want to have dispersed code-generated stars, and then they form a form (reindeer, santa, etc).
The idea is how i make the stars disperse and then return to their previous positions, knowing that the initial positions were randomly generated as well.

I have two movieclips in the centre of my stage. One is on top of the other and fade's between them using left/right buttons.I want to change this so that they slide in like a jQuery slider does. I don't want to change the initial position of the movieclips (on top of each other) just change the fade effect to a slide in.

I've always wondered if there was a way to retrieve and store the current position of an object. i am trying to develop a background slideshow using penners equations. but i get into trouble because you have to define the start position. so let's say you click button 1, and the object moves from x =0 to x = 200. Now when i press button 2, i want the object to move from x = 200 to x = 400. and if i then press button 4, i want it to move from x=200 to x=800 and so on. So i need to go from the current position to any of the new positions. i could do this simply using the normal inertia code.

well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.

I can't seem to find a way to get more than the initial set of 4 stage3Ds provided by flash. I have tried instantiating a new one using it's constructor and then adding it to the stage by simply pushing it to the list stage.stage3Ds.push(new Stage3D());
but this doesn't seem to be working as my eventListener for the Event.CONTEXT3D_CREATE is never called (it is if I use one of the default Stage3Ds. workaround or a way to accomplish this?

I have developed some code whereby the positions of objects on the screen are represented by two values and I store all this data in three arrays like so:
Code:
objectName = new Array('flower','boxy','fleawhale','vampirefish','littlefishies');
initialXoffset = new Array('24','83','14','50','40');
initialYoffset = new Array('100,-170','10,50','20,100','50','-200');

I'm using FLVPlayback to display a flv in a swf embedded in html. Autoplay = false, wmode = transparent / windowless. I've got it working (not yet set up the way I'd like, but that's another issue), but the way the flv displays when the page loads is a problem. The controls skin is clearly visible, but the movie frame displays as a white box on a white page, barely visible except for a faint outline.
I guess the white screen simply represents the first frame of the flv. Ideally I'd like to see either a black box or the first frame with meaningful content. Is there any way (say with ActionScript) to advance and stop the flv to a particular frame? Or is there some other way to not see a white box here?
See attached screen grab detail. If it helps, here's my html.

I have the following code:
Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i<buttons.length; i++){
buttons[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myFunction);
}
[Code]....
I would like to add a code that would add an initial call to the function myFunction, but because it is listening for a MouseEvent, it has to wait until a MouseEvent happens (CLICK)
I thought that I could add a parameter to a function call like this:
Code:
myFunction(e:Event, buttons[0]);
but that did not work.

If I have a textfield instanciated from the document class with a base .string set as for example "4444" and BEFORE adding it to stage, I change the .string value to say "1234", when I test the swf, I can see the 4444 for a very short time changing for the 1234.I didn't change the value after adding to stage so I don't get why the display number is changed after being added to display.How to force it to add to stage (display itself) only once the initial changes to his properties are done?

I've been trying to solve this problem for a number of days now but I must be missing something.
Known Variables:
vi = Initial Velocity
t = Animation Duration
d = Distance.
end velocity should always be zero
The function I'm trying to create: D(0...t) = the current distance for a given time
Using this information I want to be able to create a smooth animation curve with varying velocity (ease-in/ease-out).
The animation must be able ease-in from an initial velocity.
The animation must be exactly t seconds and must be travel exactly d units.
The curve should lean towards the average velocity with acceleration occurring at the beginning and the end portions of the curve.
I'm open to extra configuration variables.
The best I've been able to come up with is something that doesn't factor in the initial velocity.

I've set-up a menu using the actionscript below tracking bt up / down states (credit - thanx Barn:[URL]..
But I'd like to adapt the script to have the home button (mvcBtn0) initially set by default to the down state - and then revert to the up state as soon as another button is pressed.
I've tried various adaptions sending the clip to down state on load and then the up state once another button is clicked - but none are working.

This is in AS2 and should really be quite simple. I have a populated list box control that may or may not have an item selected. When the user enters some data in one of the data fields on the screen and then moves to another field, a database access is performed which returns some data which is used to populate other fields on the screen.
As part of this the item in the list box is selected based upon a code returned from the database. All so well and good. However, I cannot get the list box to move it's 'display window' to the position of the selected item. Ie I want the selected item to become the first item displayed in the list box. (Note: NOT the first item of the list box...

i am doing a photo album type site where all photos (which are movie clips) appear small and when clicked they enlarge. when the enlarged photos are clicked the movie clip continues and they go small again.
as you'll see from the code below i am doing this by basically saying if the photo is small, play the movie clip from frame 2 which enlarges it until a stop value at 30, and then change the variable value. if the photo is large and then it is clicked play the movie clip from 31 to a stop action at the end and then change the variable value.
everything is working fine except i am not receiving the initial value of the variable "picbtn_position" which is set on the main timeline to value "mainscreen". can anyone help me as to what is going wrong here? maybe i have to do something else to get a variable value from the main timeline to the mc.
here is the code on my movie clip:
on (release) {
if (picbtn_position == "mainscreen") {
trace(picbtn_position);
gotoAndPlay(2);
[Code]....
and here is the code on my main timeline for the initial variable value:
var picbtn_position:String = "mainscreen";
