ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Modification Using Buttons?
Oct 29, 2004
I have a dynamic text field with space for only one character. The text field id embedded with a space and the 26 uppercase letters A-Z. The text field is intiated being empty. I have two buttons, and up and a down. When i press on the up button, i want the value in the text to be incremented by 1, for example, if it is a space, it should increment to an "A", if it is a "P" it should be incremented to a "Q", and if it is a "Z" it should be ncremented so it goes back to being a space. I have managed to do this with a bunch of 27 if else statements, but surely there must be a way of simply incrementing the value in the text field?

I am using a swf file as the back drop for a page and it works on Firefox and Safari but not in Netscape, Opera, and IE. I have chased the issue to the actual flash element and how it is programmed to play differently by the AC_RunActive javascript file. code, written to allow for a change of the z-index position. Also, the problem with Netscape is that the entire animation is not being shown. I have the html for linking flash in a div tag and it doesn't seem to want to see it. I may have two seperate issues with the same code or they may be linked.

I need to create an arrayCollection as a copy of other arrayCollection. Then I need to change some data inside the copy, but when I do that the original arrayCollection changes as well. Is there a way to stop the changes in the original arrayCollection? For example I got: arrColOrig[0].someVar = 1

well this is gonna be a long big essay. So lets start. I used this tutorial to make a nice menu. I got some ideas by searching this forum. Finally came up with this (check the attached .fla) ... Allright, now umm...its really hard to explain. But i gotta explain this. lease Check the attached fla to get the idea of what I am talking here. You will notice that there are 3 buttons in the MAIN MENU. 1) Home 2 Forums. or the SUBMENU : I put 3 more buttons inside the forums_mc (look in the library) on frame 61. The buttons are 1) EXT MC 1 , 2) EXT MC 2, 3) EXT MC 3. I want to use these buttons to load external swf. I want to use the same logic used in the transition tutorial to make the intro and outro transitions. In addition to that, if I press any button on the MAIN MENU, the externally loaded swf should play outro transition and also collapse the SUBMENU. BUT (this is important) , if I press any button in the SUB MENU (like the button EXT MC 2) , then outro transition should play in the ext swf, but the SUB MENU SHOULD NOT PLAY THE OUTRO ANIMATION (which we want to do, when pressing any button on MAIN MENU).
Also the externally loaded swf should load in the emptycontainer movieclip inside the FORUMS_MC clipSo, got any ideas how to do this ???k the attached files. The above discription will only make sense if you see the .fla and other files attached. tried my best to do this, but could not succeed. Also, i asked many friends, but they are not able to do this...I am pretty sure that Masters like POM and Voetsjoeba, scotty and many others will be able to solve this problem.

I'm using Flash MX and am following the falling snow tutorial in the actionscript section. What I'd like is for the snow to move from right to left, but still with the random y position.This code gives me snow (particle) moving right, left, and right again but most ends up along the top (y value of 0).

I am trying to modify the "Adding Thumbnails" tutorial found here:[URL].. I would like to have the bottom thumbnail scroller start to scroll automatically upon page load. The two areas within the scroll area that currently control the moving of the scroll area would not be needed. Each thumb nail would also need to be clickable and point to their full size images. Currently, when the user causes the scroll to happen, it moves untill their are no items left in the array. I would like for the automatic scrolling to continually scroll, looping back to the beginning of the array when completed, over and over again.

Is it possible to modify a shape within a body after assigning it, for example I have a box shape for my game hero body, and when I press the down arrow I want my hero to crouch witch means that I need the body shape to be resized.
I've already searched in google but it appears that the topic of modyfing shapes is not so popular. If it's impossible maybe you know a better way of doing this.

I am using loadMovie to put an image onto the movieclip instance "mov_NowPlaying". The movieclip is sized to 56 X 56 on the stage, however, the image is around 120 X 120. I cannot seem to trace or change the width and height properties of the loaded image to 56 X 56. Here is what I have:
Code: Select allnewClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying.loadMovie("../videos/video3/meow.jpg", newClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying);
newClam.clamTop.mov_NowPlaying.onEnterFrame = function () {

I'm trying to make a few modifications to the XML Slideshow; I've removed the scrolling, and would like the thumbnails to animate X position when they load; starting off stage and moving on. I'd also like a black border around the thumbs to appear on Rollover/Click...I have an idea on how this should work, but having trouble implementing it...I'm guessing I'd have to attach another movieclip behind each thumb and set visibility of that clip on rollover.
Here's the code I'm using with the attempt at animation.
function thumbnails_fn(k) {
thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
tlistener = new Object();
tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {

i followed a tutorial on line that showed me how to create a scrollbar gallery with the use of only action script and xml, i also looked at another tutorial that allowed me to be able to use thumb nails to change the images been displayed. now i'm trying to modify the former tutorial gallery i made to include this function by using my already set images as the thumbnail and when this images are clicked i go to the next page or frame and display the corresponding image. i have been able to get the images clickable but i can't seem to get the image to be displayed. here is my code and my xml file here. even if its an idea i wouldn't mind. been at it for 2weeks now and i can't seem to find a solution.
PHP Code:
stop();import mx.transitions.Tween;import mx.transitions.easing.*;//maincodevar myGalleryXML = new XML();myGalleryXML.ignoreWhite true;myGalleryXML.load("test/gallery.xml");m

I was working with the sample code from the Click and Zoom 3D Carouse tutorial and was wondering if anybody figured out a way to have full rotation?
When the demo tutorial files first load the first image is the energy drink. The last is the cat. When you click on the cat first, the carousel, rotates all the way around to it rather than just one slot back. Similary, when at the cat (the last image) and clicking on the energy drink (the first), it rotates all the way around back rather than just one slot forward.
How do you make it rotate seamlessly both ways?

How can I change these file attributes using Adobe Air? I'm able to READ them both just fine, but the properties are read-only. How do I change them?

I'm creating a menu system, the text buttons should, on rollover, move all buttons to the left (of the button currently rolled over) 100 pixels, in the gap created a sub menu running vertically will appear which will break into a 2nd horizontal submenu etc. I'm still in the early stages, and have hit a stumbling block, I placed a trace (this); cmd in root of the roll over function then again in each segement of the IF/ELSE loop inside that fuction. The trace CMD in the root of the rollover gives me the feed back _level0.btn1 or 2 or what ever button I have rolled over but the ones inside the IF/ELSE loop all say _level0.btn0 regardless of the button I roll over!

I want to make some buttons and use the buttons.fla library. The button is inserted and given an instance name. A second button is inserted (same kind) and given a new instance name. But when I am trying to change the label text in one of my buttons the text is changing on the other button as well. I believed they where separate instances?

I have read the tutorial called "loading text from external sources"(with 3 buttons loading 3 different texts) . I tried it but when I click right on the button, it says "cannot place actionscript directly on an object" Must the different buttons be on different layers?(In my project, they are on the last page of my site)

The code I'm building creates two MovieClips on the stage, in one it instantiates several text boxes and in the other some buttons.
What I can't do is access data from the text boxes (e.g. textField.text) for use in the functions called by the eventListeners attached the buttons. I had the system all working nicely before I placed the text boxes and the buttons on separate movie clips.but this structure makes it much tidier to refresh the text I'm using.The button functions are fine with variables created prior to the building of the text boxes.
Am I failing to address the text boxes correctly (because they're on another movie clip) or is there a stage / movie clip property I need to set so they can see each other ... or is this something else altogether?Could it be that the buttons are created before the text boxes?
