I'm basically trying to call a function that is on document class from another document class. I have a document class called Main.as in it there is a function called tester(). I need to call this function from another document class called Step1.as.[code]Does anyone know how I can call the function? I cant seen to get it to work.
View 5 RepliesHow can I run function of the main document class from a class of a MovieClip? I usually just used MovieClip(parent).function(), but now my MovieClip has another parent. Or what do I have to pass to the MovieClip class when creating the MovieClip to acess the main document class?
View 9 RepliesI have a Document class that instantiates a class named Other. I need to call a function in the Other class from the Document class.I'm getting this error: Call to a possibly undefined method OtherFunction through a reference with static type Other.I have read online that you need to use make the functions static or use a getter function but I'm unclear how to do that. I haven't been able to make it work and I feel like i'm missing something fundemental with this problem.below are simplified versions of the classes.
Document class
Code:
package {[code]......
I have a document class called Main.as In the class constructor I have the following listener:
enter code here
var listeningFORModeChangeToStudent:Sprite = new Sprite;
listeningFORModeChangeToStudent.addEventListener(TellAllModeChangeToStudent.STUDENT,exp);
addChild(listeningFORModeChangeToStudent);
[code]....
In a third class I make a call to the despatcher in the previous class:
enter code here
var ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent:TellAllModeChangeToStudent = new TellAllModeChangeToStudent;
ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent.tellAllModeChangeToStudent();
I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?
I have a document class with functions that I want to access from .as files that are "included" from the timeline of movieclips.
for example, the Document Class "docClass.as":
PHP Code:
package{
public class docClass extends MovieClip
{
public function docClass():void
[Code].....
What is the correct way to call functions in the Document Class from and included .as file?
I have a function defined in my document class that I want to call on a framescript of a movieclip placed on a timeline. Of course, left to itself it's "undefined", and I can't figure out how to reference parent/root/document class.

I also wrote a simple tracing action and saved it as "xTrace.as"[code]...
I'm trying to manipulate (in this particular case add eventListeners) objects (in this case some MovieClips) on the stage from a class that isn't the document class.
1120: Access of undefined property trans.
Now I know that it's probably a scope thing and I probably can't access stage objects directly from a non document class (as I'm doing in the code below) but I can't figure out how to access them properly.
Anyway, here's the deal:
I've got 3 dynamic text fields (called "NL", "FR" and "EN") on my stage in a movieclip called "trans". I'm trying to add eventlisteners in a second class to make them do something when clicked on.
Here's my document class:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
// Import custom classes.

I've got a simple program that consist of a document class and a buttonTemplate constructor class. I need to call a function called updateText that should be in the document class, when someone clicks on a button. My event listeners for the buttons are in the buttonTemplate class. My question is, how do you call a function in the document class from a constructor class? Here is my simplified code below
DOCUMENT CLASS
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;

I keep getting an "undefined property" error when I try to call an external function from within the Doc class. I added the error message to the Doc Class below so you can see where it occurs.
If I take the code from the Tooltip.as below and place it on the FLA's main timeline I can get things working fine, but I would like to move all script to classes. The document class structure looks like this:
Drag_and_Drop.as
Code:
package {
import Tooltip;// Import custom class
public class Drag_and_Drop extends MovieClip {
[Code]....
I realize that I could just combine all the code in the Doc class to get it working, but it would be nice to separate out this particular code which has only one use.
I'm trying to have a class reference a variable within the document class and have scoured the web but can't seem to find a solution. It seems relatively simple, but is a major stumbling block for me.
I want the variable in the doc class to increment each time a draggable object is within bounds and snapped to a box in the subclass. By tracking successful snaps, the objects will be placed one under the other each time.

My project is structured as following :
- a fla file with movieClips on the timeline , this fla is linked to the Main class
- a Main class who does some randomization of the animations
- a MenuItem class which function is to give each button menu the same functionnality
the problem is that I'm trying to access to the randomNumber function inside the Main class from the MenuItem class to prevent the rewriting of the function inside this class. I've made some research on Google and apparently I have to create a Singleton class so I can access the Main class from everywhere, I've followed those instructions but it still doesn't work, when I trace the Main class from the MenuItem class it gives me a Null result!Main Class code :

a button wich is istanced in Menu, run showTheThumbs method, in Thumbs.
have a very simple question, (Bear with me I'm still quite new to as3 and some of my terminology may not be solid) I want to access a function that is within my document class when a movie clip on the timeline has played to a specific point (being the end). I have already been able to call another function from the document class at the top/root level (it is called to initialize all clips and buttons when you click on the "enter" button on the splash screen. Problem is that I cannot call another function (in the document class) from a movie clip within a movie clip on the timeline. Is there an easy way to do this? I have considered writing a separate class for the movie clip and then adding it onto the movie clip (using the property panel). I don't really want to do it this way because I am already using a base class on that movie clip and 3 others that use a set of generic functions.
View 1 RepliesHow do you access the stage from a function in a document class file? I tried a fairly simple:
ActionScript Code:
var main:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(main)
var _stage:Stage = main.stage;
trace(_stage);
The result was null.
Tried to access a function in the document class by simply calling it. For exampe, the code in my frame is:
Code: Select allinitButtons();
And in my document class I have the function:
Code:
Select allprivate function initButtons():void{
trace('anything');
}
But it gives me an error. Even tried to change private to public the same.
I have a main movie with thumb movieclips that load new children and stops the main movie's animation. Within the child there is a close buttion that removes itself. I also wanted the close button to start the animation of the main movie again once it removed the child. Since I am using a document class to load everything for the main move, how can the close button from the loaded swf use a function from the main document class?
