ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding MovieClip Multiple Times Vertically Down

Feb 8, 2009

I've run into a bit of a snag regarding a project I'm working on. The code below sets up the mc holder which includes two dynamic text fields sFloor and sCompany these get their contents from an xml file. YAU is one of the additional mc's that I need added at runtime depending on the number shown in the sFloor field.

Code:
var nameHolder:holder;
var nameHolderX:Number = 145;
var nameHolderY:Number = 267;
var YAU:upArrow = new upArrow();

This is the code that add's the holder mc 25 times vertically down and populates the sFloor and sCompany text fields with what's in the XML file

Code:
function loadText():void {
var txtLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
txtLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
txtLoader.load(new URLRequest("XMLfile.xml"));
removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
[Code] .....

it all works fine except that the "YAU" added mc is only added into the last instance on the list (which is the correct number) but I need it to add to any of them that meet the condition.

Actionscript 3 :: Adding Items From An Array Multiple Times To The Stage

Feb 16, 2011

I have a for loop wich passes 11 times:

private var currentItem:uint;
for(var i:uint = 0;i<10;i+){
addChild(arr[currentItem]);

[Code]....

So the problem is that the array only contains 6 items. So when it comes to the 6th item the currentItem resets and the next 4 items that are getting added are the 4 first from the array again. Now when i trace the items, the last 4 trace "null". how can i add items from the array multiple times without losing its properties etc?

Flash :: Calling Geonames.org Service Multiple Times Adding Each Result To An ArrayCollection

Nov 14, 2011

I am using a service that returns JSON (geonames.org) and I'm putting the result in an array and dumping it to a datagrid. Now that works fine for one city like this [URL].. However, I want to call this service multiple times with different city names, so I created an XML list ad figured I would iterate over the city list and get the results.

My question is how do I do this such that 1) all the lists are combined into one arraycollection and 2) this seems like I will have to chain the calls and wait for results which may or may not come back, so I thought I would ask the group about the best practice, and or resources to read and examples to build from.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get AttachMovie Multiple Times In One Movieclip?

Feb 17, 2010

Here's what i've got...

_root.onMouseDown = function() {
_root.attachMovie("flag_mc", "flag_mc" + nextDepth(), nextDepth(),{_x:_xmouse, _y:_ymouse});
}

My problem is that it only adds one instance of flag_mc to the movieclip. When I press the mouse down again, it removes my old instance and puts a new one. Is it possible to make it leave the old one and add another?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing An Array (containing A Single MovieClip Multiple Times) From The Stage

Oct 18, 2009

What I am trying to achieve is to remove an array (containing a single MovieClip multiple times) from the stage alltogether, once you call an end public function. I can remove all the other Movieclips on stage (that are not in the array) using this.removechild(MyChild) The array is located in a package, calling another package where the MC is located, and put on stage with Event.ENTER_FRAME.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding The Same Event Listener Several Times?

Jul 10, 2009

I have a button which adds an Event.ENTER_FRAME listener. Once this listener has been added it's quite possible that the user might click the button several times more. Is the same Event.ENTER_FRAME listener triggered again when the button is clicked again? or does Actionscript ignore the command to create the listener again since the listener is already running?

I'm worried about memory leaks, and I'm worried that Actionscript might create multiple Event.ENTER_FRAME listeners with the same name, but it would suit me best if I could allow the user to click the button as many times as they want.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dragging A MovieClip Vertically?

Oct 28, 2010

I'm trying to enable the user to drag a movieclip vertically. I've coded something to be dragged horizontally, and thought it would be a simple matter of swapping some of the info around.

Here is my current code:

stop(); 
var leftY1:int = 120;
var rightY1:int = 400; 
frontbar1_mc.mask = mask1_mc.rec1_mc;

[code]....

Now when the movieclip is clicked, it completely changes position and will only be dragged horizontally. Then when its clicked again, it will jump vertically by how much I previously dragged it horizontally.

Professional :: Use The "same" Button Multiple Times For Multiple Galleries?

Feb 14, 2011

I am extremely untrained in CS4 and Actionscript. However I have managed to get along fairly well until I started to dynamically upload images as a gallery. This works great if I have one gallery, but for my site I have 9 galleries!!! I have a back and next button, but I want to be able to use those same buttons for all of the galleries so they look the same. I have split them up and renamed them, but I am clueless on how to script the buttons to work.This is what I have now because I do not know where to put the other button names without getting errors.

stop();
next_btn .addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber: Number=1;

I want to get this going first). Now, I read a decent bit about onEnterFrame, and did some tutes, but I'm not quite sure how to use it to do what I want.

when I click a button it loads an SWF, then when I click another button it loads another SWF into the same loader. However it appears to be loading multiple SWF's in conjuction with the amount of times I clicked a button.

Actionscript 3 :: Sound Plays Multiple Times At Once?

Apr 10, 2012

I'm having trouble with sound in Flash. I may have went about coding the wrong way, because most of my codes are on frames.

So, I have these two variables

var outsideDay:Sound = new daysong();
var outsideNight:Sound = new nightsong();

And I want to play these songs on a specific frame. However, the sounds play sporadically, like 50 times at once. I think it's because I have other codes that link to the frames with a Enter_Frame function. How can I get the sounds to loop and not play multiple times at once?

Aug 10, 2011

The following code works in the following way:

When I enter incorrect values in the txtother.textbox and focuses out, an alert will be displayed as "Please enter a valid Format Mask." . After pressing the "ok" button in the Alertbox the txtOther.focusout even is triggered again. i.e. immediately after pressing the OK of alert, the same ALERT is displayed again.

I have added the code for ur reference:

//in mxml File:
<mx:Canvas label="General" >
<mx:VBox>

[Code].....

I don't want to the alert to come again and again .. I need it in such a way that when the ok button of alert is pressed. The txtother.text should be in focus, and the alert should not come again and again as before.
