ActionScript 3.0 :: Copy And Pasted Code, First Code Works, Second Doesn't?

Jun 9, 2011

I've literally been staring at this for 7 hours. I'm missing something.I have two movie clips on the stage. The instance name of the first is puzzleAK. The instance name of the second is pieceAK.The first is linked to a custom class called GeoPuzzle. The second is linked to a custom class called GeoPiece.The code compiles but throws an error (as explained).The code in the main timeline:

puzzleAK.fullName = "Alaska";puzzleAK.abbrev = "AK";puzzleAK.isLocked = false;trace ("made it through puzzle definitions: " + puzzleAK.fullName + " " + puzzleAK.abbrev + " " + puzzleAK.isLocked);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cut And Pasted Code Not Working?

Feb 11, 2010

I created a drag and drop quiz following an online tutorial.  It worked fine.  Then I made a different one.  I cut and pasted the code from the working file into the new one and changed the names of the movie clip instances.  When exported (control +enter) I can pick up the MCs I want but I can't drop them;  they just stay stuck to the cursor until I click on another MC.  I have gone through the code and I can't find anything wrong.  It just doesn't work I'm stumped.  Here are the working and not working versions:

var counter:Number = 0;
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Copy XML String And Hard Code Into Flash

Aug 27, 2009

I have swf that loads xml from a folder. I want to copy that XML string and hard code it into flash as an entire string. Then dim my xml object equal to that string. Is this possible? Reasoning is because I don't want people duplicating the swf and chaning the xml to create a whole new object. I don't want to have to manualy enter each question and answer and value into the arrays. That's to time consuming.

AS2 code to load the XML:
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = "<myxml>My XML STRING HARD CODED HERE?</myxml>";
var questionXML:Array = new Array();
function loadXML(loaded) {

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Creating TextFields - When I Copy The Code Into The Loop It Fails?

Oct 15, 2009

I'm currently creating an app which allows users to select blocks of text from a List and dynamically create a TextField on the stage.I'm calculating the height of the TextField and positioning the next TextField beneath.I'm also recording the total heights of the TextFields so that I know when the total height exceeds the available height, at which point I move the x position and reset to y position to zero.

When the next TextField will exceed the available height I want to split it into two, so I'm calculating the remaining height, making the TextField.height into the remaining height.when I try to get the position of the last visible line.If I have the TextFieldAutoSize as LEFT, then I can dynamically generate the heights of the TextFields.For the final TextField in the column I need to set TextFieldAutoSize to NONE so I can change the height of the TextField. i.e. I don't want it to autosize.However, bottomScrollV returns the total number of lines, not the last visible line.

I can create the required behaviour in a separate doc but when I copy the code into the loop it fails.Here is the code.

Code:
public function buildTextFields() {
3 columns (I'm calling them TextBlocks)
// so the first is 0;[code]....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Code Works On One Frame But Not The Other?

Mar 8, 2011

I have 2 frames in my movie, 2 buttons and a video.  On the first frame there is code for button #1.  On the second frame i have code for button #2 but I'd also like to appear on the first frame. The problem is that when I put the code for the second button on the first frame, the video won't play.  so I can only have it on the second frame.  I can't figure out why the code, which works when its on frame 2, then won't work on frame 1.  When I put the code on frame 1 it breaks the functionality and the video won't play.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Code Only Works After A Page Reload In Firefox 3?

I'm using Flash CS3, exporting for flash player 9 and having troubles with the code below only in Firefox 3 (flash player 9 or 10).In IE 6 & 7, all works OK.The code below should show small thumbnails of images. It does work on everything I tested except firefox 3. What is weird is that if I empty my cache and load the page online, it does not show any thumbnails or sometimes only one. However, if i reload the page without emptying my cache, it will then work perfectly.Here is my code :

ActionScript 2.0 :: KeyPress Not Working But Code Works On Button

Jan 28, 2009

[code]It works fine when I press the button but not when I press the enter key.Just to set the context I want users to be able to use enter to enter an answer into a grid before moving on to the next cell. My cells are all labelled A1, A2 etc so that I didn't get confused. As I am and will always be a newbie I couldn't figure out a function to do what I wanted so came up with what is probably a long winded way around: store the textfield instance name in an array and then call the item in the array in conjunction with setFocus - like I say it works when I click the button (which I intend to hide off screen).

ActionScript 1/2 :: Preloader Not Previewing - Code Works Out A Value Between 0 And 1 Called 'loadVal'?

I've written a simple preloader which I've put in its own movie clip. The code is as follows:
 
[code]...
 
The code works out a value between 0 and 1 called 'loadVal' this is used to animate a masking object a distance defined by a variable called 'yShift'. loadVal is rounded up to give a whole number that is displayed in a text field showing the percentage of the movie which has loaded.The preloader seems to be running and it will trigger the move to play when it completes but I can't see the preloader previewing in the Bandwidth Profiler, even when I set the data speed to be very slow. I've noticed this issue before and it is annoying as I need to see how the preloader looks and works.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Loop Fails To Execute Code But List Of Commands Works - Baffled?

Jan 19, 2011

I've got 13 movieclips that all run a function (setNames) contained in a child object (namer) it contains. The function displays text in a dynamic text boxI've set them up with the instance names mark0 > mark12 so I can target them with a loop and array notation which is something I often use. But the loop sometimes doesn't work, however a list of 13 separate lines of code works fine. Am I overloading Flash with too much code commands at once, and is there a way around this?This doesn't work...

for(i = 0; i<13; i++) {
//sets names
this["mark"+i].namer.setNames();

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 XML Variable Doesn't Carry Into Second Bit Of Code

Nov 23, 2009

The problem is, the variable doesn't carry into my second bit of code. I can add a button and use trace to display the correct variable in the output box, so I know it's getting into Flash. The problem is that it's not applying itself to the second piece of script. Triple checked that the code with by putting in the number manually and using a normal variable, only when I use the XML file as a variable does it refuse to work. I'm very new to Flash so sorry if I've left any important information out, but can anybody shed some light on this?
