i've made a function prototype to make a "type-like" effect... but when i want two textfields to use the prototype at the same time, it ****s up! its like its only possible to use a prototype on one movieclip... not two movieclips at the same time...
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to build a prototype for strings to be loaded into textfields.I want to break up a string and put each and every char in it in to the textfield with a 1 second interval.
This is what I've come up with, I don't get any script errors but nothing seems to work anyway.

Hi there,
can someone tell me what Prototype exactley is?
I guess it's something like css style sheets.
kind regards
In a ActionScript 2 code sample it uses some MovieClip.prototype's functions, as MovieClip.prototype.setModel;I'm trying to write this example using an ActionScrip 3 class, but the MoviewClip.prototype does not exists, where can I get it from? Does it exists in ActionScrip 3?
--update as you are asking, here goes, this code works just fine as an actionscript included on frame1, but I want to make a ActionScript 3 class with this same code:
//package
//{
// public class asteroids extends MovieClip
// {

I am using a software to load my swf in the TV and I can get basic functionality without problem. My issue is with creating a menu slider that is x and y sensitive without using the Xmouse or any mouse related property. This has to function within D-Pad Navigation and with a standard TV remote. I have had some success with using an invisible button (loaded with a script) to make the menu "move". This way doesn't allow much control.

I'm trying to make an educational app prototype (I'm new to Flash, this is for a Masters in education) to help students learn IPA symbols (phonetics). I have successfully made a section where the students click on symbols to hear the corresponding audio and listen to explanations.
For the final part of the prototype, I have to create some kind of instructional game. My idea is to have 12 circles, each one playing an audio file of a vowel sound (this I know how to do). The students will have to click the circles to listen and then drag and drop them to the correct IPA symbol. Flash would then give feedback on correct/incorrect answers and a score. Maybe all of this is against the clock, needing a timer.
So, I need to learn drag and drop. What else to I need to learn so that one drop position is considered "correct", the others are considered "incorrect" and a score is given at the end? And maybe a timer?)
In Flex, you can add functions to the prototype of a Class; but how do you add a setter? For example, with A some (non-dynamic) class, you can do this:
var o:Object = new A();
A.prototype.myFunction = function():void{trace("foo");}
o.foo();
And that will call the foo function. But how could you add a setter, so that setting the property calls the setter (just like it would if you declared the setter in the "normal" way on the A class). So what I want is something like this:
// doesn't work!
A.prototype["set myProperty"] = mySetter;
o.myProperty = "test"; // should call mySetter
PS: Manipulating the prototype is an unusual thing to do in Flex, and not something I'd recommend in general. But for the sake of this question, just assume that there is a reason to dynamically add a setter.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make my first prototype, but I can't put it to work, I wanted to atribute a property to a variable, so I could call the prototype on to the movie clip, asking for any property, without having to change the prototype code.Is it possible?Here is my code so far:
MovieClip.prototype.multProp = function (proper,targetv, smooth) {
this.proper -= (this.proper-targetv)/smooth;
};[code]...
but it doesn't seem to work.
I'm trying to write a prototype function that will use setInterval. The following script defines a simple movieclip prototype that traces the clip's x position when called. The function works fine when called explicitly ( _root.foo.trace_x(); ), but does not when called by a loop.There are three clips on the stage, their instance names are foo, man, and chu. I created an array so I could loop through and have each one run the trace_x function once.Here's the code:
Code:
clips = Array('foo', 'man', 'chu');
num_clips = clips.length;[code]....
but instead, the output is "undefined" over and over and over.An example .fla can be found at http:[url]....
I created a prototype function for the Array object. It's supposed to load and parse an XML file, then take all the values from the XML file and convert them to objects, which I then want to push to the array that called the function. However, I can't seem to get it to work.The function itself seems to work, but the push to the array does not. (code below)
Array.prototype.xmltoArrObj = function( path ) {
var xmlurl:String = "nav/" + path + ".xml";
var attr:String = "";

View 2 RepliesI'm using the following code to set a prototype for hitTest within a loaded mc. It works great the first time, but I need to test to see if it's been called because it doesn't work if the code gets called on successive loads...
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.oldHitTest = MovieClip.prototype.hitTest;
MovieClip.prototype.hitTest = function(x, y, sf) {
var obj = {x:x, y:y};
this._parent._parent.localToGlobal(obj);
return this.oldHitTest(obj.x, obj.y, sf);
};
Is there a way to test to see if the prototype has been called before? I was setting a variable in the _parent movie initially, but I can't do that now so I need to test to see if the prototype has been called...
I have 3 variables on the _root timeline.
var a = 50;
var b = 75;
var c = 100;
then i have a prototype which uses those
MovieClip.prototype.myName = function(a,b,c){
...
}
I then have 3 sliders which change the values or a,b and c.
My question is: How do I get the prototype to update the values of a,b and c as the sliders change the values of the variables?
I've got a menu with 3 menu items. Each item is a mc. There is a pointer mc that eases to the mc menu item that you mouseover. That was working fine...until I found out that I have to make the menu dumb enough for flash 5. As we know, you can't assign button events to mc's unless using flashplayer 6 or higher. So I tried to just drop some invisible buttons over my menu item mc's and assign the mouseover events to call the prototype in each invisible button. The prototype should then ease the pointer mc to the position of the menu item that I've moused over. Problem is that it restarts the playhead back to frame 1 each time I mouse over a button.
