ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Random MovieClip From Library To Stage Dynamically?

Aug 4, 2009

How to add random movie clip to stage from many different movie clips in library? If I wanted to add one movie clip to stage I would do liko so:

Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMove);
function onMove(e:MouseEvent):void {
var mc:MovieClip = new Ball();
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
addChild(mc);
}

Code above works perfect but I tried following but with no success, no errors, but nothing happens - no mc's are added to stage. I have 6 movie clips in library and they all are linked, exported for actionscript. On MouseOver I want to add random movie clip from those six movie clips to the stage.

Code:
var myArray:Array = [mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6];
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onLoop);
function onLoop(e:MouseEvent):void {
for (var i:int = 0; i< myArray.length; i++) {
var randomMc:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*i);
var mc:MovieClip = new myArray[randomMc];
addChild(mc);
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
}}

Oct 27, 2011

I have a game where i add some cartoonish ants, that when they are clicked, they need to be removed from stage. There are 4 differend kinds of ants, so im doing a Math.random for picking which one to add. (ant 1+2+3 have 50% chance to spawn and 4th 50%)

Code:
rnd_nbr = (Math.random() * 5)+1;

I have a timer doing 10 tick, and i reset the timer to make neverending. Then i have a math random and if sentences adding mc' to the stage with movement from Tweener, and event listeners for clicks. But i cant figure out how to remove them when clicked. I have done alot of failed tries right inside the click_candy_anty function. I've left them commented out.

Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var ant_index:Array = new Array(10);//index for ants
var ant_number:int;

I am in the process of creating an info box Object, which displays one of the five organizational informations, dynamically on the user's choice. All the code is in the associated Class.I am stuck with one issue. It requires adding a PNG image, from a set of 5 small images, placed in the Library, on the top-left corner of the movie; appropriate to the contents. I tried adding an image container movieclip at the required position; but don't know how to attach the image, from the library, to this container.

Flash :: Dynamically Adding Children From Library Using Array?

Feb 1, 2010

i'm porting an old AS2 project to AS3, And have encounter a problem. I've tried a few different things but had no success.

in AS2 when dynamically attaching a MC from the library i would sometimes use an array. the array would hold linkage reference's, like so;

var mc:String = state_ar[currentState];
this.container.attachMovie(mc,mc,this.getNextHighestDepth());
targetMC = this.container[mc];

How would i do this in AS3?

Professional :: FLVPlayback Adding To Stage Or Library?

Jun 17, 2011

I am unable to add the Action Script 3 FLVPlayback component to my stage or library in Flash CS5.5 when working with an action script 3 document.
 
Under components in the video folder i click and drag anyone of the FLVPlayback components (FLVPlayback, FLVPlayback 2.5 or FLVPlaybackCaptioning) to the stage and nothing happens. I am unable to add it to my library as well. All the other actionscript 3 components under the Video folder work. (BackButton, BufferingBar, CaptionButton, If I create an actionscript 2 document the FLVPlayback component drags to the stage and adds to the library just fine. So this appears to be an actionscript 3 issue only.
 
I have 2 other employees in my office using the same product and none of them have this issue. Only me.
 
I have tried to uninstall the product and reinstall but nothing helps. I have Flash CS3 installed on my PC and the product has the same symptoms as the Flash CS5.5 trial version that I am running.
 
I did not try this with Flash CS3 before I installed the CS5 trial. So I do not know if it worked prior to my CS5 evaluation.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding MC From Library To Stage From External Class

Oct 14, 2009

I'm trying to create an application with an extensive user interface. I've come pretty far and decided I wanted to really take advantage of the object oriented features that AS3 has to offer.

I've started off by created a few classes: User, Background and Main. Main is the document class of course. In the document class I have a function "resetStage" that clears the display list of all children. This is because I have many layers of images making up the UI and they all show up at startup unless I remove them. Besides I want to see where the stuff is positioned in the Authoring tool so I don't want to just create movieclips and then delete them.

My issue is with my Background class. Basically what I want to do is create a new DisplayObjectConatiner called bgContainer or something and then put all the background stuff in it. (The main background image and a status bar image). Then add the bgContainer and its children to the stage. This should all happen when the object is constructed.
 
Main .as
---------------------
package
{
public class Main extends MovieClip
{

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Objects From Library Vs Directly On Stage?

Dec 7, 2009

I am a flash developer and I've got some experience in games and applications, but there is a problem that always comes back and that I solve in sometimes discussing manners, but I've decided to find the "good way" of doing it.Ok, here's my problem :I have a game where I set the publish setting to export in Frame 10. Most of the graphic content is already on the stage on the frame 10, but there are a few MovieClips that I add and remove using AS from the stage (a "How To Play" movieclip, for example).All the movieclips I want to use with AS are set to export in Frame 10 and are used in different custom classes.Everything works just fine if I set everything to export on Frame 1 and all my graphics are on frame 10, but not if I export in any other frame than 1.The workaround I've found is to create an instance of the objects I want to load outside of the stage, but I hate that way of doing things :I get no error if I create an instance of my movieclips through AS, but they won't show up when added to the display list (yes, I know how to use addChild )

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mask Multiple Images Adding To Stage From The Library

Nov 23, 2009

I have a series of images I'm adding to stage from the library. I need them in separate movie clips for tweening. If I create a new layer... add a shape to the layer... mask the layer... finally, add a layer below that layer (with nothing on it) then all of the images I've added from the library are masked. No matter what I try with code however, I can only get one image to be masked. must you create a new mask for each image you would like to mask? I thought maybe if I could do it all in one go on a layer, there must be some code that allows one shape/mc/object to mask several clips.

1: this is my third attempt at mastering OO and flash CS5 so, i hope we can all have a laugh after.

2: In short.. I added a 64x64 tiled movie in flash. Read it out in an array, in a.. well original way(just to see if i could get it to work so stop lauging already), and tried to recreate them using a flash class.

Dynamically Adding Movieclips To Stage In 'for Each' Loop

Dec 2, 2009

I am reading in collection objects from an XML file. Each collection has an img field that stores a URL to the collection image. So I am trying to load the images of each collection, storing each image in a MovieClip, and add these MovieClips to the stage. However, my problem is that after adding a MovieClip (with the collection image) to the stage, when a new MovieClip is created in my 'for each' loop it overrites the previous MovieClip. So the images I am adding to the stage are being replaced by the following collection's image on each loop iteration. What can I do to avoid this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Adding Movieclips To The Stage?

Oct 20, 2009

I am trying to write some code for someone show wants to be able to control their timeline animation by using the slider component. Everything was going fine until I tried to add the Play and Pause buttons to the stage. I instantiated both movieclips and added "stage.addChild(<mcName>);" but neither clip showsup when I test the movie. I tried removing "stage." but that didn't help either.

I tried to find a solution to my problem online, and while I haven't figured it out yet, it seems that these movieclips might need to be part of a function. This could be totally incorrect, but it's the best guess I have right now.

My AS code is below. (I couldn't get the .FLA file to zip small enough, but if anyone wants it, I'll find a way.) See comment "// PLAY/PAUSE CODE" for Play/Pause buttons.

Code:
//SLIDER CODE
// Import slider and movieclip classes
import fl.controls.Slider;
