ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables In A Loop?

Sep 9, 2009

i'm having trouble creating an image preloader with a loop. my apologies, this might be a very simple task that i've been pulling my hair out over for an hour.

i have 8 UIloaders. each named image1,image2,image3, etc. they are inside a movie clip called "allClips_mc".

this VERY long, redundant code works:

Code:
magicBox_mc.allClips_mc.n1.image1.source = "newsClips/images/newscast01.jpg";
magicBox_mc.allClips_mc.n2.image2.source = "newsClips/images/newscast02.jpg";
magicBox_mc.allClips_mc.n3.image3.source = "newsClips/images/newscast03.jpg";
magicBox_mc.allClips_mc.n4.image4.source = "newsClips/images/newscast04.jpg";

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables From A For Loop In A Function?

Dec 30, 2009

Is there a way to make the variables generated from a for loop within a function accessible to other functions? because at the moment other functions are firing errors because the variables refferenced are from a different function.

You may of seen this code from other threads

ActionScript Code:
function nodePoints():void {   
//VarName,     mcName,          XPos, YPos
var row1:Array = ["clientComp", new clientComp(), 100, 200];

ActionScript 3.0 :: Array Of Variables - Make A Bunch Of Variables From A For Loop

Feb 21, 2009

How can I make a bunch of variables from a for loop. for example for (var i=0; i<total; i++) {var bunch(i);}. that i make a bunch of variables named bunch1, bunch2, bunch3. I keep getting errors. I program and use so many different languages that I dont know if that can be done with AS3. my only other alternative i can think of is to create some sort of event dispatcher object array. but I dont know how to get them all to send events to one listener with there index number.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Items Created In Loop?

Mar 14, 2012

If you have a series of sprites created in a loop:

ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
}

Which you added event listeners to, in the same loop:

ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.addEventListener(....
}

How can you remove those listeners, then add them again? I need to kill and re-enable the listeners of many sprites which were created that way.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Multiple Movie Clips With Loop And GetChildByName

Nov 3, 2010

All i really want to do is be able to affect multiple movieclips at once with event listeners and greensock tweens.The first snag I hit was that I couldn't create references to movie clips using the old [] Associative array referencing method. Maybe I still can with AS3, but I couldn't get it to work..So I found another technique using getChildByName that returns a reference to a movie clips and allows me to store that reference in a variable.However, the movie clip I'm trying to affect with an event listener resides inside of another movie clips, so to build the address (aka, root.mc1.m2.mc3) to the mc I want to get to is proving to be difficult. (I'm very new to AS3...)I thought the trace(target1_mc.target2_mc.name); at the bottom of the following code would output the name of target2_mc but it doesn't...[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Getting Variables Out Of A For Loop?

Jan 2, 2011

i'm trying to use a for loop to generate for me a set of vars, but it's not really working out. =.=.

I'm loading the image file names from a xml, and i want that the for loop create vars like "fotoToLoad0, fotoToLoad1 ..." and load the filename within.

I guessed i had to use the eval command, but as far as my ignorance sees it, when it is used, the eval makes a variable reffer to another and not fill it's value. (I guess i'm wrong thou).

Here's what i've tried so far:

Code:
for (i=0; i< totalNodes; i++){
var fotoEnd = imagesXML.firstChild.childNodes[i].firstChild.firstChild;
var fotoTemp = eval ('fotoToLoad'+i);
fotoTemp = fotoEnd;

That's quite not working thou =(. If i try used 'fotoToLoad1" for example, in a text box it just returns undefined

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Variables In A FOR Loop?

Apr 23, 2009

I used to dynamically set some variables using a FOR loop kinda like so PHP Code:

//Sorry, from memory
var possibleValues:Array = ["red","green","blue","yellow"];
for (i=0;i<possibleValues._length;i++){
_root["colorNumber"+i] = possibleValues[i];
}

Second question, using that code in a function would set the variables at the root level making them available throughout the timeline. Without "_root" how do I get that variable available to everything?

Actionscript 3 :: Getting The Right Variables In A Foreach Loop?

Dec 20, 2011

I'm trying to get specific variables out of a for each loop. These variables are used to display a click event on a marker on a map. If you click the marker on the map, the details pop over it. Now these details are being overwritten each time the loop starts (50 times). The solution I'm looking for, let's me select a marker on the map with the according detail attached to it.

There might be an easy solution but I haven't found it yet.

The code : for each(artistXML in artistList.events.event)

ActionScript 2.0 :: [MX] - Defining Variables In A For Loop?

Here's what I've got:

What I'd like to do is write a loop to handle all that code in less code. So, how do I define variables using variables?

Something like:

for (var i:Number = 1; i < 6, i++) {
var cColor+i = new Color(eval("mcBut"+i).mcFill);

IDE :: Complex Loop CurrentTarget Variables

Feb 1, 2010

i'm trying to create a menu system where each item expands in height when clicked but is then collapsed back to the original state when other items are clicked.m is the height of the expanded state. n is the height of the collapsed state. i is the number tacked on the instance name.Also, I'm using Tweener for smoother transitions. I've done this already by copying out the code but it's 24 items so 24x24 lines of code when I'd like to be able to do it a little more elegantly. Here's roughly what I want to do, but don't know if it's possible:[code]So every box below the one that's been clicked on most recently gets the value of m added to the y value and every box above doesn't.Is it possible to retrieve the value of the variable i that corresponds to the currentTarget?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Loop To Create Text Field With The Loop's Current Value

Dec 11, 2010

I am attempting to use a loop to create text field with the loop's current value. The code looks like this:

ActionScript Code:
for (var i = 1; i<=10; i++) {
var 'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt':TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.x = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.y = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.text = "Hello World"
}

So essentially what it should do is create 10 text fields at 40, 40 with the text: "Hello World".
