ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Input Field From Document Class?

Feb 27, 2012

Everything with my PurePDF project is in place I just need to be able to take user input and put it into the PDF document that is created.

If I have a text input field on the stage called inp_Name, how would I access the text the user puts into that from my document class which creates the PDF file and put that information into a variable in my document class?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Text Field Input From Document Class

Feb 23, 2012

So I am making a small course in Flash CS5 that will take the users input from the course using Text Input boxes on the stage and create a PDF document with the information using PurePDF. I have the PDF documents all working the course all set and I can access the Text Input field text from the main timeline and store it in a variable but I can't access that variable from my document class in order to plug it into the PDF document. I did some searching and I found people saying to use MovieClip(root).myVar but it just comes up null when I trace it.

Actionscript 3 :: Access Dynamic Text Field On Stage From Within The Document Class?

Sep 2, 2010

I'm trying to access a text input that I've already placed on the stage (inside a movie clip) but with no luck.I've defined an instance name for this dynamic text field which is currentUserCount.I've got something like this set up in the document class actionscript file:

package {

import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;[code].......

What am I missing? When I run this I get:

1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.

1120: Access of undefined property movieClipName.

1119: Access of possibly undefined property movieClipName through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.

1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.

Actionscript 3 :: Access A Displayobject On Stage In A Class That Is Not A Document Class?

Mar 7, 2012

How to access a display object on the stage in a class which is not a document class?

I am looking for a solution that doesn't involve passing the stage as a parameter to the class.

One solution i always come across is using "TopLevel.as". Is it a good method because as far as I have heard using global variables is not recommended because it might cause some problems while working on big projects.

CS4 Non-document Class Can't Access Library

Got two classes "Engine.as" and "Player.as". Engine.as is the document class that is calling Player.as.

The point is to have Player.as create a movieclip on the stage, but it seems it cannot access the library or something. Because when the player class is at the createHero() method it gives me the "error 1009 cannot access a property or method of a null object reference"

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access A Mc Or Textfeild From A Non Document Class?

Sep 21, 2010

It used to be simple to access an object you put on the stage like a mc or dynamic text field by simply using _root.instanceName ect.  Now I see references to making references to the Stage and such like:
 
private var stage:Stage;
stage = stageRef; 
and I am still confused.
 
What I have going on is, I have placed a movieclip on the stage in Flash and gave it an instance name of Cell_mc.I have a cusom class that extends MovieClip with the following imports

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;

[code]....
 
This Class is tied to a set of MovieClips in my Library.

I have a listener: this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,pickUp);
 
And a function:

private function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void
{
this.startDrag();

[code]....
 
I get the following error whenever I try to access an object I placed on the stage from anywhere other than the document class:
 
1120: Access of undefined property Cell_mc.
 
How do I access the cell_mc that is already on the stage from this non-document class?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Document Class From Within Movieclip?

Jan 30, 2009

I was wondering if it was possible to access the document class from within a movieclip.

I am creating a slideshow type project, and I'm using a document class to switch between the frames using the arrow keys. However, in one of the "slideshow screen" movieclips, I want to have it stop, and then play another part when the arrow key is pressed again.

I tried to access my nextScreenToPlay method within the document class, but whenever I try to do it within a movie clip, I get this error: Call to a possibly undefined method nextScreenToPlay through a reference with static type class.

If I do a trace(Main), within a movieclip, it shows the class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Vars Between Document Class And Other Classes?

Apr 19, 2009

For the example, there's a single FLA with a document class "main.as." In the public class main.as package, there is a public variable: "var example:String='example';." Inside of the FLA, there is one movie clip in the library and it is assigned a custom base class "sub.as." The movie clip is then placed on the first frame of the stage so its constructor is run at runtime and reads the value of example.

What is the proper way to get the value of "example" in the root document class? Using "root.example" in the sub.as class to target the document class returns an error and when I trace "root", I get "null." Main.example naturally throws an error because that's looking at the actual class and not the movie / stage its attached to.The round-about way I've done it before is to dynamically add the object in the library and pass in the root path when I create a new instance of it (example: submc:sub = new sub(this); ).Is there anyway to get back to the document class with a built-in method like root, etc?

Flash 9 :: Access Document Class Methods From Within MovieClip?

Aug 27, 2008

Let's say I have a FLA file with document class called main. In main, let's say I have a method called test1 that just outputs "hello world" via trace. On the FLA I have a movie clip. In that movie clip, when the timeline reaches frame 123, I want it to invoke the test1 method (I just set up a simple action on the frame). However, I get an error saying that the method is undefined. I try this.parent.test1() too but that gives me the same error. Is it not possible to invoke a document class property from within the timeline of a movie clip that's on the stage?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Direct Access Of Document Class Static Var?

Sep 19, 2009

I often write apps in flash where I wrap all the display elements into one parent display object container (not the stage). Let this parent container be mc_world for example. I declare this in my Document class (Main) as:

ActionScript Code:
public static var mc_world:MovieClip;

Since this container is unique and often times needs to be referenced from various classes in the project (that are not its children) I find myself often doing Main.mc_world across my project to access this container.

Is it bad practice to directly access static members of the Document class throughout my project? Are there any simple alternatives? I don't want to dispatch events every time I need to access mc_world. And using a singleton class doesn't seem all that different from the Document Class (which only has one instance right?).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access The Document Class Directly With A Getter?

Oct 25, 2010

I am start developing small games (I have just finished reading a nice book from Rex van der Spuy) but I would like to use the best OO approach.Let's make a very simple example: suppose that i have a Player class which adds a listener to the stage waiting for keyboard events in order to move around the stage.I have also some enemies on the stage and the player must register a collision with them; what is the best approach in order to access the enemies on the stage and check for a collision with them on the ENTER_FRAME player's event? I have read a lot of solutions, but I am just starting coding and so I don't know which one is the best approach.

a) Access the document class directly with a getter (e.g. Main(root).allEnemies, supposing that every time an enemy is created it is added to the allEnemies array)?

b) A singleton class which has a reference to every instance in the stage?

c) I have read about using events, how?

ActionScript Code:
package 
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code].....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Of Variables From Root Or Document Class?

Nov 13, 2010

Anyways, I've been trying to figure this out for quite some time.Let's say I have my document class. I'm guessing the document class can correspond to the first thing that gets run? (such as the "main" function in most C++/low level languages).If I set a variable in it:var myNumber:Number = 10;how would Iaccess: "myNumber" from other objects in my stage?Like a movieclip on my stage for example.If I go inside that movieclip into the movieclip's first frame, how would I say:trace(TheDocumentClass.myNumber);Another similar question is, what about the actual stage frame?If I click on frame 1 of my stage, set a variable:var aNumber:Number = 5;how would I access it from other objects?In my movieclip's first frame, what would I put?trace(root.aNumber); ?trace(stage.aNumber); ?
