AS3 :: Flash - Finding Out What Button Was Clicked From Looped Dynamically Added Buttons?
Jan 12, 2012have a loop that creates buttons. Each button stays on the screen, but scrolls off, meaning there are at any one time upto 4 buttons on the screen. There are a total of 241 buttons.t is to my understanding that using an array will allow me to access these buttons later, and that is great, but I can not find a way for it to tell me exactly which button was clicked.Am I missing something very simple here?
if (canAdd == true)
{
canAdd = false;

Actionscript 3 :: Accessing An Instance In A Dynamically Added MC?
Apr 11, 2011I've added a movie clip dynamically using the following code:
var apie=new cPie()
apie.x=100
apie.y=100
stage.addChild(apie)
I now have a pie on my stage. Yum. Assuming this works like a movie clip placed on the stage by dragging and dropping, I added this in to change an instance in the pie.

View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Added Event Listener?
Aug 29, 2010I'll present my problem in a few steps:
- I have a constructor method which is trigerred automatically once the program starts
- The method's argument determines whether or not an enter frame event is to be added(move:Boolean = true)
- If true, add the event listener
- there are getters and setters created to access the variables from another class
The problem is that the event listener is run only once - at the initial phase, so it checks the move's value just once (true - add, false - don't add), so it can be turned on and off only in this class. I want to allow a user to change its value from an external class, which is impossible even with getters and setters, because it adds the listener before the user even gets a chance to change it. I want the listener to be added only if the user wants it to. I know it looks complicated,
ActionScript 3.0 :: Tweens And Dynamically Added MovieClips
Jul 20, 2011I have a question about Tweening for dynamically added movie clips: In Main.as constructor file I added a movie clip:
addChild (new Arrow());
in Arrow.as I want the new arrow to tween as soon as it is added by Main.as file.
To do so, in Arrow.as I put this code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
mport fl.transitions.easing.*;
...
private function onAddedToStage(event:Event):void {
tween= new Tween (this, "x", Regular.easeInOut, x, 400, 60, false);
}
But "this" seems not to work because the file simply adds my movie clip to the stage without tweening or error messages. What I should put instead of "this" in the Arrow.as? Or any other options to tween this movie clip?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Finding The Instance Name Of An Dynamically Added SWF?
Apr 26, 2009What I have is a navigational button. On click, it adds a MovieClip that contains a SWF.This SWF is a third party news reader/blog. My problem is that when I click on another Navigational button, I can't remove the added SWF (whether I use removeChild() or unload()).The container MC that was added to hold the SWF is removed but the newsreader stays. I assume this is because, that while the newsreader itself works great, it has too many unremoved event handlers, connections.
My main problem is that I can't figure out how to call that added swf by it's name and where on the displaylist it resides. Because I really want to use this newsreader, I've come to accept that I can't remove it. What I'm doing instead is trying to set up a conditional that looks to see if this SWF is already on stage, if so, do nothing but make it visible again(don't re-add the SWF).This is what I have so far, but it's not working (or at least not working without error)
Code:
var blogNewsMC:BlogNewsMC = new BlogNewsMC();
function loadBlog(url:String) {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Do Not Mask Dynamically Added Symbols

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Added Movie Clip Won't Animate
Oct 2, 2009I am working on a project where i have been given an FLA that has lots of images contained in movieclips that animate when you roll over them. These animations are all contained on the timeline of each separate movieclip, so the code was basically a lot of gotoAndPlay("2") statements and so on.
I have been given it to work on because the different movieclips need to go to a URL read in from an XML file when clicked on, and i have this part working no problem.
I also need to be able to read in image paths taken from the same XML file as the urls, and load these images into a movieclip holder within the movieclips on the main timeline. However the problem that i am having is once the images are loaded into img_holder which is placed inside a movieclip they will not animate on that movieclip's timeline.[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Children Of Dynamically Added MovieClip
Jan 8, 2011Code:
function saveAction(evt:MouseEvent):void{
var choice=evt.target.name;
var inputText:String = saveName.text;
}
I have this and I am trying to make a variable from the contents of the input box. Simple ya? The issue is that it is a child of another clip that is being added dynamically, so it doesn't think the input exists. How do I declare the input? How can I target it's contents? Also I have a remove function that is meant to remove this same parent clip.
Code:
function closeSaveWindow(evt:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(saver);
}
'saver' is a variable created in another function, so I think there is a scope issue there. To try to fix that I declared 'saver' as a movie clip as a global var.
