ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Clips In Different Frames With The Same Name?
Feb 18, 2009I am using an external class to control a movieclip placed in the stage, which has been drawn in flash. Part of it involves controling the clip's children . Now, the thing is, there is one child having an instance name, say ball, from frame 1 to 10. Then, from frame 11 I have removed this one, and added another child (with another type). I have given this new child the same instance name as the one I have removed. When I try to access object ball in frame 11, it doesn't work.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing / Changing Variable Across Frames
Sep 8, 2009Its a simple adding "game" where 2 numbers are randomly generated and you have to input what you think the answer is (userAnswer). Then it adds the two numbers it just generated to produce correctAnswer, and checks it against userAnswer. When you hit the check answer button, it moves the the score dialog frame and says whether its correct or not. But I am having 2 problems I think - 1 - I can't get the input textfield to assign the typed-in value to userAnswer (I'm trying userAnswer = inputAnswer.text; ) and - 2 - the second frame that has the score and "Correct!" / "Incorrect!" dialog can't seem to access any variables from the first frame. I've tried using two layers and keeping the variables on the second layer that spans both frames, but then the functions in the frames that you actually see can't change the variable to update it with the user's input.

Jul 9, 2009How do I make a button on one frame (on the main timeline) tell a movie clip on another frame to go to a certain frame inside that movie clip?
To do this, if the mc's are on the same frame is easy because you just use the dot syntax or MovieClip(parent), but how would I do this if a mc is on a different frame?
ActionScript 3 :: Accessing All Instances Placed In Different Frames From Document Class?
Aug 11, 2011I have programmed a game using the Flash authoring tool and a document class. I'm trying to graphically add instances and add functionality in the document class. Suppose I have a main timeline with 3 frames, each frame reperesents a different level of the game. In frame 1 I have an instance of the MovieClip class named tree1 on the stage and in frame 3 I have an instance of the MovieClip class named tree3 on the stage. In my document class, after an initial stop() command, I want some logic like:
tree3.scaleX = tree1.scaleX;
But tree3 is unknown to the runtime since we are not of frame 3 yet. Any way to access all the instances on all frames declared in the authoring tool from the document class?

AS3 :: Accessing Variables Between 'movieclips'
Jun 16, 2008I have finally started with AS3 and flip-'eck its a different animal that AS2
I have a swf called login.swf and in it have declared the variables var total:uint=0; and loginState:Boolean=false
All my scripts for logging in sending/receiving variable from/to server scripts are all working!
So... when a user supplies a correct password another swf (userLogged.swf) is loaded (note: in AS3 this process is seriously different than in AS2) swf dont seem to be loaded 'into' another movieclip anymore... and this leads me to the puzzle!
How do I access variables declared in the project.swf, from within the userLogged.swf!
the old AS2 way = trace (_root.loginState);
or trace (_root.project.loginState)!
I am stumped by this new approach of AS3 of loading in other swf files. The _root. options is no longer available in AS3 (that much I've descovered, some tuts say use root. but I cannot get that to work)
trace (root.loginState)
or
var userLoggedIn=root.loginState
gives me the error
1119: Access of possibly undefined property loginStatus through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.

Actionscript 3 :: Accessing Variables In Another Class?
Jul 25, 2010First off I don't understand classes, how to "call" or "initiate" them. I'm class ignorant.
I have two .fla files. One of my .fla files consist of 15+ .as files; we'll call this one XML editor. The other .fla file consists of 10+ .as files; we'll call it the interface.
The xmleditor.swf loads the interface.swf. Within the xmleditor.swf, a login screen appears and the enduser logs in as either a "user" or an "admin". The "user" or "admin" is stored in a public variable called "userType". The userType variable is created in one of the many xmleditor.fla .as files called Login.as.
Once logged in, xmleditor loads the interface.swf. interface.fla uses 10+ .as files. one is called nodeNames.as I need an if statement in nodeNames.as that is something like this:
if (Login.userType == "user"){
trace("do something");
}
I have the following FlashVars.as file but I have no idea what the steps are to make it work.
package extras.utils {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;
[code]....
Should I use this FlashVars? and if so, how?
Or is there an easier way to access the variable?
Actionscript 3 :: Php - Accessing Header Variables?
Oct 25, 2010I would like to know if it is at all possible for AS3 to grab header information and process it? I am trying to avoid having to use PHP to get the information, then store it in a DB, give it to flash, then go and delete it again, or something alike.
Basically the flash is waiting for three variables that get sent through the URL, right when it gets initialized, then once it gets those variables, it can determine where to go next.This is for a Facebook application, and I am using FBML to embed the flash.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables In A Loaded Swf
Jul 1, 2009I am creating a flash program to open other flash programs (load swf files), and change their textfields to my own extended textfield class. This is to capture all text written to screen using a textfield object. Here is what I am doing:
1. If a textfield has been created, the event is captured
2. I want to replace the textfield with my own class extending textfield
*3. Any further access to the original textfield for value changes can be captured, and would update the replaced extended textfield object
The problem is if in their original code, at sometime, the text value of textfield is changed (mainly through textFieldObj.text = some_value) , I don't know how to capture this event.
This cannot be captured by event.CHANGE which requires the user input (ie: keyboard strokes) into the actual text field and changing the text through the code: textFieldObj.text = some_value does not trigger the event.
Here is a simplified example:
// FlashMovie.fla START -------------------------------------------
// any DisplayObjects (such as a created textfield) created will be captured
// by ChildAdded()
this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED, ChildAdded);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables In A Loop?

this VERY long, redundant code works:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables Outside Function
Jun 23, 2010I need to access the contents of a variable that is filled inside a function, but is declared outside the function.. [URL] says that if you declare the variable outside of the function the variable should be accessible even when its content is filled by a function. I have declared the imgs variable at the start, outside the function, as an array. After that the function retrieves a string from the URLLoader and splits that string into to the imgs array/variable.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Accessing Variables Of A Loaded SWF?
Jan 12, 2011I'm having a SWF call functions from another SWF loaded in the first one with the Loader class. There are no problems as long as the target SWF does not contain any TLF TextFields created on stage by authoring time interface. As soon as I place a dynamic textfield on the stage of the loaded SWF, the main SWF (the loader) fails to call any of the functions within the SWF that is being loaded.Static text does not seem to present problems and neither do TextFields created via ActionScript.Also, is it possible to access variables of the parent SWF?

Dec 5, 2003I am having a problem accessing variables in a loaded flash movie.
As my understanding goes (someone please correct me if I am wrong), if I load a flash movie into a parent movie (i.e. 'loadMovie("myMovie", emptyClip);'), I should be able to access the loaded movie's variables using dot-syntax.
As an example, say I have two movies: MainMovie.swf, and SubMovie.swf. SubMovie.swf contains a (global) variable called someText. After loading SubMovie into an empty movie clip called "emptyClip", MainMovie.swf should be able to access the aforementioned variable by saying "emptyClip.someText", right....? Well, when I try this I keep getting an undefined value for the variable.

I'm trying to do this in the main movie clip of a movie that I plan on importing dynamically in another movie. I've tried to use this.int1++, but I think that flash was looking for a variable that belongs to "myfunction" when I did that. I could just use _root.int1++ but like I said, I plan on dynamically loading this into another movie, in which case it would be pointing to the wrong movie.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Variables On Different Frames?
Feb 8, 2011I have a movieclip that is exported for actionscript and has a class linked to it.In the actual movieclip I have two dynamic text fields ex: tf1 and tf2. tf1 is on frame 1 of the movieclip and tf2 is on frame 2.In the constructor I pass two strings as arguments ex: s1 and s2, one for tf1 and one for tf2.So in the constructor I am trying to assign these values to the textfields i.e:tf1.text = s1;tf2.text = s2;But, because tf2 is on frame 2, I cannot access it.I think I read something somewhere that all variables and objects that are on frame 1 are global. But this is not what I am working with, I need to access tf2 which is on frame 2.
