ActionScript 3.0 :: Access MC Inside An Array?
Jul 19, 2011
I'm learning a lot by reading the questions and answers that are asked in the Forum. Now it is my turn to ask a question that is probably a rookie, but I have spend 3 days breaking my head to try to find a solution and have not found it yet.
I am trying that the program responds to each click of the player in a box that is white and turns red, with a random click in another box. Something similar to Tic Tac Toe.
My problem is that I can't make te program to access the boxes in the array by programming. When I try the program to access the box with p.ex.: "this.newBox.boxplus30.gotoAndStop (2);" I always get the error "object null or undefined". I have tried everything you can imagine to formulate that line of code, but without success.[code]...

how I can access array data inside of an mc from the main timeline.. I am hoping to get into an array called children, which is inside of an mc, which itself is inside of an array called mcs.
Here is what I am trying to get to: mcs[m].children[0];

I've never actually fooled around with 2d arrays that much. What I need is to access an array and get all the objects inside of it. I actually mocked up a little something to mirror what I want.
ActionScript Code:
var arr:Array = [[{name:"Hat", price:"34", url:"http://www.google.com"},
{name:"Scarf", price:"38", url:"http://www.yahoo.com"},
[code]....
I don't have any trouble getting the data, but as you can see that it's pushing each object separately in an array. So it would look like this: I just need to get all of the objects first like {obj}, {obj}, {obj} and then push them into an array.

I've created a card (that extends movieclip) in flash and after that I've created an array and pushed some cards inside of it. The name of the mcs is already set, but now, I want to add them to the stage and set their x and y position.
Code: Select allvar test:Array = new Array();
var testMC1:Card = new Card();
var testMC2:Card = new Card();
[Code].....
How can I access the property x of this card? The next code is wrong, of course, but it gives the idea of what I need...
Code: Select alltest[1].x = 100
// or
test[card3.x] = 100;

I am making a profile sort of thing, basically what happens is: You start the program... it loops, and generates 500 text fields, it stores them in an array called profile_name[]; it names them "Profile + (i+1) (i being the var used in the loop). Changes the colour to yellow, changes the size to 13. Removes the border from it and makes it unselectable (the text). It then converts the text into a movie clip (as if you made a dynamic text area, on the stage, and clicked it, and pressed f8, and converted to mc). It stores that in an array called profile_mcs[]. I need a way to access the text inside the movie clip in both they're arrays...
Example
If you go to your flash stage, make some dynamic text, call it "ptxt1", you make it unselectable, remove any border if it has one...
you name the text "test",
you select it, press f8, then convert to a movie clip called "test_text"
you name it "pbtn1" (the instance name I mean, when I say name)
If you go to the first frame of your main timeline and press f9 (action script section)
type
pbtn1.test.text = "NEW TEXT", it will name the text "test" inside the mc "pbtn1" to NEW TEXT...
However, if you store them into an array (both text and mc) you can no longer reference them like this:
MyMC_Array[0].MYText_Array[0].text = "NEW TEXT",
It doesn't show up, and making 500 if statements is to much (I think my problem may be when I traced my dynamic text inside the movie clip (that I've made on the stage) it appears as undefined.
Code:
var profile_name:Array (my text var) = [ptxt1, ptxt2, ptxt3, etc..];
I've tried doing
Code:
var profile_name:Array = [pbtn1.ptxt1, pbtn2.ptxt2]; etc..
None works,

daFloor[a] = "plan"+a
}
[Code]....

I have an array with 10 buttons with random names, so not btn1, btn2, etc but for the sake of examples, I'll use btn1, btn2 etc
each of these buttons have dynamic text like so btn1.textField.text = "something random" etc also in each of this text there is a delimitator "%#%" I can easily use
Code:
var btn1ContentArray:Array = btn1.textField.text.split("%#%");
btn1.property1 = btn1ContentArray[0];
btn1.property2 = btn1ContentArray[1];
[code]....
I was wondering if there is a more ellegant way, using arrays or something similar to make the coding cleaner and easily scalable I can also create
Code:
var arrayBtn:Array = [btn1, btn2,..., btn10];
and do a for loop, but I don't know how to use array inside array

I'm using OOP code only, no frames nothing.
I have a movieclip called "test" which contains another movieclip called "subtest" inside.
Now, on my code I have:
Code:
var _test:test = new test;
Now, I want to access the MC "subtest", how do I do that?
I gave the instance name "subtest", if I do something like below, it says that the type subtest is not found:
Code:
MovieClip(_teste.getChildByName("subteste"));

I am trying to have the function name from itself.It will be really cool to automate something like this:

private function myFunction( e:Event ):void {
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener( e.type, currentFunction ); // where currentFunction should be myFunction}

how I can access the coordinates of an mc, but its coordinates with respect to the stage.
What I am doing is using a dragging function, but while the mouse is moving I am also trying to trace the position of the mc itself with respect to its position on the stage, but it seems to keep giving me very small numbers, almost like numbers with respect to its original position. I am not sure yet though why this is. Here is my code:
[Code]....
I have also tried to get rid of the this.x = mouseX and the same for y, but then it returns the values as undefined when i trace this.x and this.y

I am learning how to create menu systems for a game and have a few different "screens" (movieclips with buttons and such).
I am getting Undefined Property errors when I try to access a button from the class file of a screen.
Example: I have a MainMenu screen. This has its own class MainMenu.as.
Inside the library MainMenu movieclip, I have a button, instance named start_button.
But inside the MainMenu.as file, I try to do start_button.addEventListener(...) and it says undefined property. I tried doing getChildByName("start_button"), that won't work either.

When i run the AS2 SWF independently passing the param through HTML. It works fine.But when i load the AS2 swf inside AS3 swf. It is not able to fetch the flashvars, which is strange cz if i load the AS2 SWF inside another AS2 swf it works fine. how should i fetch the flashvars inside the loaded AS2 SWF.

I want to know I eat to place action in the button paraMc that he is inside of movie clip for, remembering that the button paraMc only appears in the screen when the clica user in the button in the green color.I already tried to make: para.paraMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,simbolo); but it did not function, The square in the black color is movie clip that it contains a button of it inside, when clicar in the button of green color, the function reproduces movie clip in the gray color and movie clip in the black color that contains the button. the button in the red color calls the function " chega" , the button in the black color that is inside of movie clip also calls this function.

I've created an animated scene in Flash, with a bar chart.The bar is a MovieClip symbol containing a large rectangle and a TextField.I'd like to access the TextField using actionscript, but I can't seem to reference it.
Each bar in the scene has its own instance name, so that's easy to find.
But how do I modify the text in the textfield within the symbols?
