I have an fla that uses the following AS:

I have four MC's that I want to fade onRollOver and onRollOut. As you can see, writing code for each MC is a rather convoluted way to achieve the effect.how to write the code as a function and apply it to all of the clips?
I have alot of mc's and I want them all to have the same code applied to them without having to copy/paste all the code in each one and also it would be easier for any changes latter. I have tried making the code a function and then calling it inside the mc's but it did not work and I am fairly new at functions themselves so I am stuck.
[Code]...
The code marks the mc position, then moves it to 0,0 then moves back to the original postion while degrading alpha. I set it up this way so I can arrange the mc in any shape and the mc's will look like they explode into the shape when played. It is used for a fireworks effect.
is there a way to refer to all movie clips on the stage or apply a function to all movie clips without applying the function to all manually?
View 3 RepliesHow would I apply my existing function that involves calculating the x and y position of a specified movie clip, to multiples of movieclips. MY MOVIECLIPS on stage are
Code:
Ball_mc
Ball_mc2
Ball_mc3
MY FUNCTION is
Code:
function hitDetect(event):void {
var ballX:Number = (ball_mc.x-videoX)/sizeDif
var ballY:Number = (ball_mc.y-videoY)/sizeDif

Should I use Arrays? Loop?
I would like some help on writing a piece of code.I need to write a function that if some movie clips are in some x and y value, then gotoAndPlay('end');

tv_mc._y = 157.3;)
then
gotoAndPlay('end');
}
I have a small slideshow loading 3 different images with XML in an animated loader.My problem is that the first round, when the images are not cached in the browser, it starts playing before the images are finished loading.Is there a way to add a sort of preloading code to my code below without having to re-write everything? I tried to add an eventListener COMPLETE to the loading images but somehow it wont work?[code]

I haven't used as2 in a very long time. I found this code for rotating an object based on the mouse position. How do you actually apply this to the object?
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find x and y differences
disx = _root._xmouse-_x;
[code]....
say I have a clip with an onEnterFrame running on it with a hit test to check if the user has rolled off the clip . . . Then i create an empty clip within that clip and attach clips to it. Will my .onEnterFrame and hitTest now apply to the clips i have attached to the original clip?
View 2 Repliesis it possible to write a function to move an object and then call that function on a clip event for instance
function (bounce){

}
and then call it by saying
on(mouseOver){
this.bounce;

i have this code for my site which Martyn_c kindly put together for me but i need to link this animated button to an existing page in my flash doc.
The object name is homepage and is on frame 2 of the homepage layer. I will paste the code below and what i have tried to do with the linking code is at the very bottom.
Unfortunately this doesn't work so if somebody has any ideas where i am supposed to put the code and if it is even the right code, please feel free to alter it please:

I have a image gallery slideshow, and when it loads an external image there is no smoothing applied. So being as this slideshow scales a image to the browsers window size, the image gets pixelated.Problem is, being as i did not make this slideshow myself, i dont know how to apply smoothing. And the AS code is very long, so i cant really paste it all on here.So i want to know if there is a way to force image smoothing on any image that is loaded in to the slideshow .swf? or any other way i can do it?This is with CS4 and publish settings are Flash 8 AS2.
View 3 Repliesim trying to use a use a code segment that makes something avoid the mouse. My issue is the code requires that iff i have more than one object that i want to avoid the mouse than i need to make a new set of variables for the second object and pretty much copy the code than change the variable names. Thats all great and dandy but i have a couple hundred very small objects that i need to avoid the mouse. is there any way to maybe apply the code to each object with an onclipload maybe?
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.Event;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fun);
function fun(event:Event) :void {

as you can see the object i want to move requires its own variables and 2 if statements. and i REALLY dont want to have to copy/paste that code over 200 times and make a new set of variables for each object. maybe i could apply the code to the object itself ? but than what would i name the variables?

I was wondering so long that how can people analyze the trait of each file extension (of course open it in notepad is not readable) For example, I want to write a program that can read everything from .fla file like timeline, movie clips, position of each MCs or all the motion tween values. And get the image embeded in it. (I'm planning to use flash as IDE for another project.)
(The reason that I tried to read proprietary format is I want to utilize their awesome editor. What I actually want to do is, I want to make an iOS game with cocos2d. There is a code to move things around in cocos2d but there is no decent editor. So I'd like to use Flash as an editor, then convert the motion to objective-C cocos2D code by reading the .fla file.)
I have 16 tweens happening at the same time which I've done using actionscript. Its basically the same thing happening 16 times with slight changes to coordinates and mc names in each tween.
Is there a way of creating an array with a list of mc names which can just be dropped in to a template? Below in my code:

View 1 RepliesI am trying to use Flex Builder 3 to write my Actionscript 3.0 Code however whenever I try to Eg: import fl.transitions.Tween; it does not recognize the fl folder let alone the Tween Class to import.

completing the code to get a return value from JavaScript to flash, but all the code was in a frame. My issue is I need to apply this code to multiple buttons, and then have them navigate to the appropriate frame. I thought I could put some of the code on the buttons themselves, or possibly I could call each button and keep all the code in frame one.....the external interface call function and the button functions....btn1, btn2; etc......I am not to verse in code and need to know what and how the best way to do this would be.

View 4 RepliesIm making a transition from Java to Flash/Actionscript and Im having sort of a hard time figuring out where to write my code for my flash game loop(or engine) due to flash having "frames" unlike Java.Am I able to put the loop inside the Document class even having like game menus in the game? I havent found a way to put it in there without it always running when the flash application begins.Or should I just have the game loop called every frame? For instance, frame 4 will be level 1 and so the engine will be called out there. And frame 5 will be level 2 and ill call a different instance of the game engine there.Im just having a difficult time due to the "frames". So where would be the best place to put the game loop?
