ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Activities Node In Sequence To XML
Oct 3, 2010
It seemed to me that adding nodes to an xml would be an easy task, but this one result seems to be bit illogical to me. I have a xml with list of activities nodes are to be added. I keep adding the activities node in a sequence. But then when I trace the xml to find its not in a sequence. I have code below
Code:
//Assuming there are two nodes to be added in the activity XML
var typeOne:XML =<quiz type="1" ></quiz>;
var typeTwo:XML =<quiz type="2" ></quiz>;
//Activity XML to which activity xml would be added as per requirement
var app_xml:XML = new XML(<quizData><global_properties></global_properties><allquiz></allquiz></quizData>);
//variable to keep track of total activities added
var _currentQuestion:int = 0;
[Code] .....
When the fourth node is entered its not in the fourth place rather in third place. This is my issue, I want them in the order they are entered. Array returns in right order.

I have this actionscript so far:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
[Code]...
This loads the xml, assigns it to bookInput and traces it, but when I try and trace bookInput.project, or bookInput.button, or anything besides bookInput, no data is returned,
XML;
<button label="test1">
<project path="http://www.google.com">
</project>

I've got a couple trees that I allow a user to drag and drop from one to another, works great except one apparent limitation. I'm picking up where they drop it in the list and adding it to the dataProvider manually. The user can drop it everywhere except after the last child of any particular node it seems, since it reads that position as being between the node and it's next sibling.
It seems the best way to deal with this is to add something like a dummy leaf so the user has something to drop the item in front of. I don't want this leaf in the dataProvider, so is it possible to add a leaf (or a folder) to the tree without adding it to the dataProvider?

My company recently contracted an outside web developer to create our new website. I have some experience with Flash, but not beyond basic timeline controls. I've been given the task to update the flash element that has a horizontal carousel. Inside, there's three series, each with 6 buttons. The controls are a left and right arrow button on either side. I added a new button into the series and moved each of the series so they no longer ovrlapped.The carousel should just rotate through continuously, but it returns to the start after 6 clicks. Please let me know if there is any other materials I need to provide. Did adding in another button change the positions in the code? If so, what do I need to do to fix it?

Scenario: in MAIN file, i have a door, when door is open, we can see activities behind the door - LOADED SWF - when the door is shut i would like all the activities behind the door - LOADED SWF to stop
Problem: my first attempt was to REMOVECHILD when the door closed, however, still functions in child=loaded file are continuing Possible Solutions i had in mind: I assumed if PARENT, dispatches an event and CHILD listens, i can say, if the door is closed, dispatch event to the child to stop functions. but it doesnt work, because i assume i dont know how to listen for an event dispatched from parent
[Code]...
I am also open to any alternative solution that helps me shut off the activities when the door closes down, dispatching event was the first thought that came to my mind, not necessarily the only answer i m looking for.

I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.

I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
Code:
<gallery>
<collection title="Christmas 2004">

how to swap to a new keyframe from a animated sequence. I'll try to explain clearer if I can. I have a button that when clicked on an animated sequence starts and the panel slides along which is fine but I can't seem to click on the back button to start a reversed sequence - I want it to slide back to the start page... so the user can click back and forth.
I've uploaded an example - squidgeye....co....uk if you click on the 'hello' button then click the arrow the sequence starts - I got the back button to have a slight colour change when the mouse goes over but that's it! I'm now stumped... and it's really annoying! I have the initial page on keyframe 1, then the animated slide on keyframe 2 - I was trying to put the reverse animated slide on keyframe 3.... but I'm now confused... I'm sure there was a better way but I'm a total newbie

I have a peice of video that I exported as a swf from after effects. Now that i've imoprted it into flash it's broken down into a squence of images. The problem is I need to move the video (Pics) but obviuosly I can only move 1 image at a time and that's a real pain as there is nearly 80 of them. I really need a way of moving all of them at the same time. Highlighting all the frames and moving them doesn't work.

I am working on a big project today and I'm importing images in by the hundreds. Is there an easy way to import an image sequence into the timeline? I remember there use to be with earlier versions of flash but I can't figure it out for CS4 - Luckily these images are named sequentially.

I'm doing a presentation where it loads different swf files in sequence. I already have a holder with width = 819, height = 614. Right now, I'm loading 1024x768 swf files in it.
This is the code in use:
loadMovie("movie1.swf", holder);
holder._width = 819;
holder._height = 614;
The swf file is loading in the correct position, but when I test play it, the first one [movie1.swf] loads and plays in it's original size [1024x768], then the following one [movie2.swf] loads and plays the way I want it [819x614]... Then when the whole movie loops again, now, the first one [movie1.swf] plays the way I want it to.

Let's say I have 2 buttons at the beginning and 2 different endings, but same sequence in the middle, how can I click on button 1 > same middle > ending 1 ; as well as button 1 > same middle > ending 2. Surely I know I can do it by duplicating frames, however it seems not right if I have more buttons and more endings.

From some reason when I'm importing a PNG sequence onto stage, it's loading all of the PNGs into one frame instead of distributing them into their own keyframes like it's supposed to. I've seen this problem posted before. Anybody have a solution for this? I've also seen that people have posted that Flash CS3 HATES After Effects PNGs....how bizarre....I'm starting to figure that out.

I've been working with AS3. The crux of the problem is that before I run a function I need to know that certain conditions have been met, for example loading my config.xml and putting it into a class variable. Where I run into trouble is that URLLoader is async so I can't put code after the load, the only thing I can do is put it in a lambda on the listener.
var conf:Object = new Object();
var ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, geoLoader, false, 0, true);
ldr.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
function geoLoader (e:Event):void {

This worked great for short bits of code, but I've got a bunch of functions that are relying on huge amounts of preconditions (this pollutes the namespace if I use the first method) or functions that rely on one bit of the stack (which means that I can't use the second method even though it's slightly more obvious to me). So, my question is: How do flash professionals handle preconditions? I'm trying to find a solution that allows tons of preconditions as well as a solution that allows different orders of preconditions or just a few preconditions from a group.

I want 2 swfs in a sequence.I tried one techinique wherein on the last frame of the first swf i have put the followig code
stop();
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_holder", this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc_holder.loadMovie("first.swf");
the problem is that it works fine when I export it to swf but when i export it exe format It does not play the first swf and instead directly plays the second swf.

trying to use a CallAction in a Sequence?the effect I want is to rotate a shape on the Y-Axis while fading the shape to invisible...then adding a new shape with alpha at 0...then un-fading the new shape to visible...then stopping the spin...
so...I'm creating a Sequence, adding a Parallel, then a CallAction, and then another Parallel...seems like the elements in the Sequence should run one at a time, in a serial fashion, in that order they were added to the sequence...but the CallAction always runs before the first Parallel completes.why is the CallAction running out of order?
here is the code:
ActionScript Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application frameRate="50"
creationComplete="creationComplete()">

I'm making a menu. It consist of three mc's (btn1, btn2 and btn3) and two squares The two squares rescale horizontal in different directions depending on the button that is presses. When the squares come to an hold there is a little gap between them underneath the button that was presses and the button is going 20 pixels down into that gap. Below is the code I have used:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.yPos = function(y){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._y += (y - this._y)/3;
[code]....
And that is where I have problems. Point one when I don't know how to integrate a if (if used) in the button event, so everything is going to move at the same time(btn2 already moves before the squares are in place and the squares are already moving before btn1 is back up again) and secondly the way I have it now btn1 is indeed moving back up again, but after that its up it also going back down again.

I have a main movie with 12 buttons (numbered 1-12), each button loads the relevant swf into a blank 'content' MC on the main stage.I also need to have 1 button called 'start' which plays whichever swf is due next. ie; if you are on swf no. 3 pressing start will load swf no. 4. I guess a simple way would be to have the 'start' button tell the 'content' movie to go to a certain frame which has an action on it to load whichever movie is next... ?

I am coding a pretty simple photoslide that gets jpgs from an XML-file and tweens between them. Everything is working well, Flash finds the files and goes through them all. The problem I have is that I want to load them in sequence for the people who don't have fast connections. Right now he loads them all at the same time, which seems pretty unnecessary. I need some way to tell him "if nextpicture is loaded, then tweenToNext()". First I load the XML, then I go to frame 2 where the tweening starts. This is how I load the pictures:
Code:
stop();
function createSlide(pics_xml) {
var picArray:Array = pics_xml.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;

I want to create a preloader that plays a video frame-by-frame in sequence according to the percentage of the total bytes loaded.in short, if the swf has loaded 25%, then it should show the video at frame 25 or at 25% the project; I want an image of my 3d model to start off as appearing to be hand drawn 2D, then transition into a full color 3D image as the swf loads.
Since my background is in 3D, not web design, I only have a basic grasp on Action scripting, so I tried to modify other code snippets with disastrous results, and most of the time, no results.It doesn't make a difference to me whether the video would be encapsulated in a movie-clip or if its just embedded in the time line, whatever is easier to do.
