In the for loop below I use the "i" var to work with 5 movieclips. The problem is that I also want to use the same "i" var to assign text to a textfield but I can't figure out how to do it. (tf.text = String("txtInfocon"+i);)
Code:
var numbChildren:uint = this.numChildren + 1;
var txtInfocon5:String;
var txtInfocon4:String;

I am working on a page where three differnt buttons effect one movie clips properties, the one movie clip will go to its rollover state when any of the buttons are on rollover, hmm, that sounds about right] i have assigned functions within a loop and the rollovers, rollouts and instance in the loop have been defined for all but the movieClips dont go to the right place. the code i have used is this....

I'm trying to use a for loop to create 219 movie clips and have it assign the value i to each one. This is how the movie clips are named on the stage
rollover1_mc, rollover2_mc, rollover3_mc and so on.
Heres the for loop I was trying:
Code:
for(i=0; i<220; i++){
rollover + i + _mc.onRollOver = displayContent;
}
doesn't seem to be working.
Basically I need it to repeat so i creates the following lines of code:
rollover1_mc.onRollOver = displayContent;
rollover2_mc.onRollOver = displayContent;
rollover3_mc.onRollOver = displayContent;
etc, etc.
don't fully understand the Projectionpoint trick to flip items with the projection point at their own center in stead of the stage center so I can't seem to figure out how to for loop enough points to each movieClip on stage so it will flip around its own axis in stead of the stage axis.I hope I made myself clear there...

for(var i = 0; i < obj.numChildren; i++){ if(obj.getChildAt(i) is Flip1Button)

all the traces show up correct but not the gotoAndStop on the movieClip (inter+i+_mc_)'s.
I have been trying to assign tween function in an array through a loop in as3.I have 20 mc on stage, the instance names are obj1, obj2 and so on.I want to assign a tween function to each of them, the function looks like this :

function startTween(e:TweenEvent = null):void {xTween = new Tween(obj1, "x", None.easeNone, obj1.x, Math.random()*20, 0.2, true);

I am loading a XML of county data for western US states and assigning listeners to movie clips of those counties. The counties have names that are equal to the field named afips in the xml. I am trying to assign listeners to those movie clips as called through a for loop. The counties are children of the parent MC name all_cnt.

I'm loading 8 thumbnails via XML, placing in a sprite, and spacing them out with a helper grid class. This part works. What does not work is when I try to assign a mask to each of these (using a simpleRectangle class I made) I appear to only be assigning a mask to the last image. Am I doing something wrong with 'imageLoader.mask = _mask;' ?
My ultimate endeavor here is to click the thumbnail and animate the mask to reveal the entire thumb.I nested the showPictures function so it could have a reference to the masks, which is not optimal.

I have is a movie with a button in it called button.i've duplicated the movie (manually) several times on the stage.the movies have been given instance names of movie1, movie2 etc.i've then used actionscript to assign actions to the buttons.i have the following code:
Code:
for (i = 1; i < 6; i++)
{
[code].....
This function all works correctly, except where i am assigning an action to the onRelease event of a given button. Every button is assigned to the same value (appears to be the first value pulled from the array).
function createSubItems() {
vspacer = 6;
i = 0;

is that possible? i'm a complete beginner when it comes to flash and actionscript... so if it sounds like i dont know what i'm talking about... it's because i don't!let me describe my situation...I have about 20 boxes... and on each box i want to assign the onPress to trace the value corresponding to an Array at element "i" in the console...instead of doing:
Code:
box1.onPress = function() {
trace("the value is: "+hypotheticalArray[1]);

I have great difficulties with something that should be rather simpel to solve, but the problem is that I'm out of solutions to my problem.The buttons that are created from an loop that retrieves it's data from array's doesn't load the external swf, instead it gives my an 'undefined' output.I tried several different array constructions found on other threads, defined them differently, but it won't work.
Here's what I'm working with:
[AS]buttons = [m1, m2, m3, m4, m5, m6, m7, m8];
titles = ["BOEDDHA", "GELUKSHOEKJE", "GEUREN", "INTERIEUR", "VECHTKUNST", "PERSOONLIJK", "SERVIES", "VERMAAK"];
swfArray = ["products.swf", "products1.swf", "products2.swf", "products3.swf", "products4.swf", "products5.swf", "products6.swf", "products7.swf"];
[code]...
As you see, I made an Array of the .swf's, put the swfArray in a loop and tried to define them to the buttons with the onRelease function.
Here is the structure of the XML file: PHP Code: <xmlfile><page></page><page> <source></source> </page></xmlfile> Some "page" nodes contain the extra "source" node. What I'm currently doing is looping through all the page nodes and looking for any source nodes. If there is a source node, I create a variable, and want to assign it a value of the contents of the "source" (HTML).

I have many countries like netherland,italy,beligum etc.. I am creating empty movieClip, inside that empty movieClip am creating dynamic text field and assigning the different countries text.. but that font is not dispalying as such in the text Field..
View 9 RepliesI'm having trouble with dynamically assigning text to a dynamically created text field.
[Code]...
I've tried setting up the TextFormat and createTextField as a function that's called on the onRelease handler. I've tried dropping the whole frackin' code in the onRelease function for each button. Neither approach works. I've been digging around on the web, looking for answers, and nothing seems to solve my problem.
I need to assign styles (bold, italic, ...) to chunks of text in a textfield with embedded fonts (defaultTextFormat) wich is XML loaded:- HTML tags: simply ignored- CSS: Error #2009: This method cannot be used on a text field with a style sheet.at flash.text::TextField/set defaultTextFormat()
I guess I'm ignoring something obvious, it can't be so difficult!

- HTML tags: simply ignored
- CSS: Error #2009: This method cannot be used on a text field with a style sheet.at flash.text::TextField/set defaultTextFormat()[code]
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".

This code corresponds to a quiz question where the correct answer is either blue or green. I get the #1009 error if I input "blue". The answer "green" seems to work ok. What's wrong with my code? Is there a better way to make is so more than one answer works? Something like "blue" or "green" or "otheranswer", etc..?
So i'm making a flash text timeline animation that should loop continously.it goes continuesly but once its finished it disapears and goes back to frame 1.is there any as or way to stop the text from disapearing and have that nice flow of scrolling text?

the code above outputs exactly what i need it to do to the specific dynamic text fields i've assigned, but i was hoping that there is a way to put this in a FOR loop? this code below works in the output panel

I have added text to my stage through a loop. There are 3 different words that are added to the stage. I put the text in a mc and then used the mc for the reflection. but for some reason the whole word does not reflect. Just the last 4 and 5 letters. All of the words are 6 and 7 letters long.Heres my code:
Code:
public function placeletters():void {
for (var i:Number=0; i<numButtons; i++) {
textfield = new TextField();[code].....
i have a loop calling in the length from a xml file, how can i duplicate the text field, since this function does not exist?
