I have created a class, that is simply a group of text fields. In the main app, I create instances of this class, and add them to the main app. How can i access the textFields that are in the class, to say, change the text, etc... When I try, I get this: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property txtHeadLine through a reference with static type Article.
View 3 RepliesI have a class, call it MyClass, and there are several variables that I need to be able to access each instance of from within the class.So for instance, I need the object myObject1, a member of MyClass, to store the variable myNumber.From the main timeline, if I trace myObject1.myNumber, I get whatever number I've stored.
However, I need to check the numbers against another parameter, so I need to be able to test if myObject.myNumber == myOtherNumber. But from within the class, if I trace this.myNumber or myNumber I get null.What is the proper syntax for accessing a variable within a class?

View 3 RepliesWhat I have is a game with a Level object, inside the Level is a Player object, and they don't have instance names given, what I'm trying to figure out is how to do is make it so that the player can change the x or y properties of the Level object.
To be more precise, I'm making it so that when the player moves in a certain direction, he either moves accross the stage, or he starts moving the Level object around the stage, it'd be in an Event kind of function, now I can easily make the Player move, but I don't know how to make the Level object move which the player is inside of.
I'm trying to set up a menu. Because this menu can have a varying number of entries, I'm generating it instead of hard-coding it. The Menu object contains an Array of MenuEntry objects, and each MenuEntry has a framework.Button object which contains the text and box that actually gets drawn to the screen. I can add a MouseEvent.Click event to the Button, but not the MenuEntry. If I do it that way, though, I'm unable to access the data in the MenuEntry object that contains the button, so I don't know which MenuEntry was clicked.
The only solution I can think of involves checking the mouse position against the position of each MenuEntry, depending on the number of Menu Entries. This does not seem like the right way to do it, though, as it is not scalable. I tried having the MenuEntry class extend the Button class, so theoretically, the MenuEntry itself could dispatch mouse click events, but that didn't work.
I have the following class, I want to do what is in the comments.I know I can do it with conditionals.I'd like to know if there is a way of doing that dinamicaly.This code is in AS3, but I know maybe this is related to javascript because AS3 is based on ECMAScript
public class ClientStatus
{
public static const INVITED:int = 0;[code].....
I'm new to as3 and I was trying to make my own slider for a while until I found the slider component. The slider component is so perfect for what I want to accomplish. But the size of the little graphics is ridiculous. If you click on the line that the slider knob is on top of the knob will snap to where you click. This is great but with only 3 pixels of height to click on it's pretty much useless. I tried going into the slider movie clip and altering the individual graphics but when I run the program the sizes are back to their teenie tiny size.

Otherwise you can suggest how i can able to access the FileReference class new properties and methods without CS4.

View 12 RepliesI am building your standard slideshow flash header for a web page.
There are three main parts:
The Slideshow class A controller class that is used as the projects Document Class Some linking timeline code.
The slideshow class has all the functionality, so I used the Document class to create a new instance of the slideshow and keep a property variable called slideshow that keeps a reference the Slideshow instance.
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
public class Header extends MovieClip
{
[Code].....
Despite me being able to call regular methods that are in the Doc Class from the timeline, I can not call properties without the following error, for example when i say slideshow.play():
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type com.example.test:Slideshow.
I have to make a method on my document class every time I want to wire an event to call an object in my Document Class?
Let's say I have a defined ClassA. ClassB extends ClassA and there's a Movie Clip instance on the stage linked to ClassB. How would ClassC access the properties and methods of ClassB without extending ClassB or creating a new instance of ClassB? The way I'm currently doing it is by referencing the stage instance linked to ClassB and then using the dot syntax to access ClassB instance variables, and this works only if the the accessed variables are public or internal, depending on what package ClassC is part of. I would like to know if there's a better, cleaner way to accomplish this.

View 1 RepliesI created an flv video player using Flash Builder 4. This "BasicVideoPlayer" project is compiled into a SWC that will be eventually be used to create other video players that extend the functionality. One of the features is a view that appears when the video has finished playing that displays a "Play Again" button. This "Play Again" view has its own class, "BasicPlayAgain", that accepts a graphic asset that is exported from a .fla file that contains all of the graphic/UI assets.
In my new project, "EnhancedVideoPlayer", I'm using the BasicVideoPlayer SWC as a library to create a new video player that will add more functionality to the "Play Again" view; specifically it will add more buttons to that view.The EnhancedVideoPlayer uses a default class that extends the BasicVideoPlayer class. The BasicVideoPlayer class has a member called "playAgainScreen" whose type is BasicPlayAgain. The EnhancedVideoPlayer needs to override the playAgain member and recast it as EnhancedPlayAgain so it can control the new buttons properly.

How is it possible to access another movieclip inside a movieclip, if you have the movieclip linked to a class in the properties. ?
[Code]....
my workaround is to send the attached movieclip into the constructor of the class, then use it from there, this will somehow make it work. But then I'm losing the point in directconnect the baseclip to the class in the properties.. example: attaching mctest.fla (cs4 file) and baseclip.as
So I have a movie clip associated with an external class in the linkage dialog. I put that movie clip on the stage. I have another external class that contains some code (not for the movie clip but for the stage). When I access the custom properties of the class in the actual flash file (not the external code) everything works fine.For example.myMovieClip.explodeTheCode = true;works in the main movie. However, it doesn't work in the external flash file when I have a reference to that movie clip.myRefToCustomMovieclip.explodeTheCode = true fails!It throws an error. In java, I'd just import the custom class the movie clip is linked to and then I can call all the extra custom methods on the movie clip in the external class I want. However, this does nothing. I still can't access any properties.So my question is, how do I access the custom features of a movie clip (that is linked to a custom class) from an external code file. It works in the movie, but not in the external source code.
