ActionScript 3.0 :: Calling A Movieclip Inside A Movieclip?
Feb 4, 2010I have to call a movieclip inside of another movieclip.
Let say a movieclip with an instance name location_mc is inside a movieclip with and instance name menu_mc.
How the scripting will be if I want to call the location movieclip.
Everything was working well until I put all my buttons inside the menu moveiclip because I need to do something else.
This is my code which I know is wrong but if just to give you an idea of what I have got:
ActionScript Code:
fitzrovia_mc.buttonMode = true;
location_mc.buttonMode = true;
apartments_mc.buttonMode = true;

Flash :: Check And Reset Variable On Main Timeline From Inside A Movieclip?
Feb 11, 2010I'm converting an old AS2 file into AS3 (and trying to learn AS3 at the same time).A movie clip contains a number of different animated sequences and buttons within the application trigger these different sequences.The buttons are functional only when an animation has completed playing.
In AS2, I achieved this with a var called _root.animating which was initially set to "false" and switched to true when the animation played and switched back to false at the end of the anim sequence. The buttons checked this var when clicked. Here is some of the AS2.[code]...

View 5 RepliesHow To Pass Variable From Inside MovieClip Into Another One
Sep 29, 2011I am creating a quiz and I set one quiz block with questions into a movieclip. When the person answers the correct answer I want it to add to a counter and pass that value onto the next movieclip. So movieclip one is added to the stage it does something then adds a counter. Then moves to the next frame and movieclip2 is added to the stage. It does something and add to the same counter variable from movieclip1. And so on and so on until no more movieclips.

Aug 5, 2009I need to create a variable inside a MoveClip. The easiest way to do this is to click on a movieclip in the editor and just enter the actionscript on a frame, but because i'm doing this with dynamically created movieclips i need to do it with actionscript.
PS: I'm doing it for sorting purposes in a slideshow.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Outside Variable Inside Movieclip?
Apr 18, 2004I have a movie clip that needs to load an outside Variable and I know how to do it if the Variable is in the main time line.
Main TimeLine:
timedelay = 5;
MovieClip
timedelay = _root.timedelay
What I can not figure out is how to load a variable in a movie clip that is on the Instance of itself (not in the movie clip).
I am fine if I only use one instance of the movie clip at a time on the stage since I can set the Variable on the Main TimeLine into the movieclip (using .root), but this would not work correctly if I want two instances of a movieclip with differenct variables.
Right now I am having to make duplicate copies of a movie clip with different Variable names. I was hoping there would be some way where I could only use one movie clip and give it different variables.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get A Variable That Has A Movieclip's Name Stored Inside It?
Aug 13, 2010I have a simple question about Variables in AS2, i have a feeling the solution is pretty simple. What i exactly need is a variable that has a movieclip's name stored inside it. I created a variable called cardType and stored the moviecip's name inside it. Now when i declare the Tween you see below and assign it to the variable cardType (which should be replaced with the movieclip's name), it does not work.
PHP Code:
var CardType;
CardType = LondonQuestions_mc.redCard_mc;
new Tween(cardType, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, 2.5, true);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Targeting Movieclip On Stage From Inside A Movieclip
May 18, 2010On the stage I have a movieclip called mc_back. I also have a movieclip on the stage called mc_content. Now, inside mc_content I have a bunch of code and some of it adds, or should add, an EventListener to mc_back as well as a a function that works when mc_back is pressed.
So basically, all code is written inside mc_content and some of it needs to interact with mc_back.
how to target mc_back from inside mc_content. Using stage.mc_back or root.mc_back doesn't work and Google should be my friend, but in this particular problem, it's acting more like my enemy.

Flash :: Call Variable Inside A Function ?
Sep 25, 2011I'm trying to pass a variable through a function, but I'm getting it's value 0. Here's my code:

this trace gives me value of 0. Normally I would do goToCategory(c) and inside that category I would get it's value, but in this case I'm calling this function with an event, how can that be done?
var c is declared globally, so I'm using it above this code in different place... is there smth like global $c like in PHP.. or there's some other way to do it?!

View 1 RepliesAs3 :: Flash - Resizing Movieclip Inside Movieclip?
Sep 10, 2011I have two movieclips, one loads an image, I resize that mc and add it in a bigger movieclip which has to be resized too. My problem is that that the inner movieclip doesn't resize the way I want although I've tried many variants of the sequence of the commands. I've also taken into account something that I read that an empty mc resizes strangely but it didn't change anything.
that's the code:
loader_mc.x=0;
loader_mc.y=0;
cont_mc.x=1440;
[Code]....
red mc is the outer one but the sizes of the inner are not right it should be about one third of the outer but it's about two thirds. same with the height.
All I want is to be able to resize them independenlty. with the outter beeing bigger than the inner
