ActionScript 3.0 :: Decimal Values For X And Y Properties Of Display Object
Feb 13, 2010
As far as I know, a pixel is a pixel. You can hardly move a DisplayObject half a pixel, can you? Still the x and y properties of a DisplayObject allow values with two decimals.
A small test..
PHP Code:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(e:Event):void {
myDisplayObject.y = Number(myInputBox.text);
trace(myDisplayObject.y);
}
Shows that this happens in steps of five (0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, etc.).
Values like for example 0.16 get converted to 0.15.
Also, the object moves 1 pixel as soon as it's x/y value is .2
You would expect the x and y properties to convert the given numbers to integers, no?

how to set default property values for objects that are being created in a loop.
In the example below, these propeties are the same for each object created in the loop: titleTextField.selectable, titleTextField.wordWrap, titleTextField.x
If you pull these properties out of the loop, they are null because the TextField objects have not been created, but it seems silly to have to set them each time.
var titleTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTextFormat.size = 10;
titleTextFormat.font = "Arial";

I must have done something wrong because when I try this
var a = 5.222+ 0.0002trace (a)
I get // 5.222200000000001
And then I try
var b = 2.222+ 0.0002trace (b)
I get // 2.2222

I have colour values from a Flash application that are ARGB format(A being the alpha/transparency value). I have to convert that long decimal number to a RGB/Hexadecimal number in Javascript. Do you know how I can extract the individual R, G, B & A values from a long(8 digit) number? Here's my function which converts a number to hexadecimal BUT its not good enough because it needs to convert the values individually(R,G,B,A):

i'm attempting to cast an object's property as an actual property of another object. here's my object variable: var propObj:Object = {prop:"width", width:50}; now i want to assign the property of a sprite using that object's properties. var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); sp.(propObj.prop as Sprite.property) = propObj.width; now, i'm not even going to try that because i know the compiler will explode all up in my face. but you should be able to see what i'm trying to do. why i'm trying to do it is because i'm reading in an XML file with an undetermined list of usable properties for specific objects. so instead of writing something like a huge switch statement to evaluate whether the XML file has a value for that specific property, i'm trying to assign properties dynamically based on what's available in the XML file. if what i'm trying to do is possible, what's the best way to do it?

I am totally confused about this one. I am trying to display a number as x.xx, but I'm having problems! The number has 0, 1 or 2 decimal places, so I have an if else to add '0' or '.00' on the end if there are 1 or 0 decimal places respectively.[code]...

I forgot to put it in the title so I'll just place it here; I am using AS 2.0. I know that there are other ways to accomplish the goal that am after, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to access the properties of an object's properties?
Here is the code that I thought of, even though it doesn't work
var a:Object = new Object();
a.bproperty = 0; //lowerlevel properties
a.cproperty = 1; // lowerlevel properties
[Code].....
This really just boils down to how I am organizing the code(I have ideas on what do next, and i am 99% sure that I can get them to work), and if there is a way to dynamically access the properties of the objects properties, It will save me from creating yet another large block of code for my project.

If I create a rectangle with 100px width and 100px height and then rotate it, the size of the element's "box" will have increased.With 45 rotation, the size becomes about 143x143 (from 100x100).Doing sometimes like cos(angleRad) * currentWidth seems to work for 45 rotation, but for other bigger angles it doesn't.At the moment I am doing this:
var currentRotation = object.rotation;
object.rotation = 0;
var normalizedWidth = object.width;

I've got a properties file with two distinct key-value pair patters like the following;name.name.name.key = valuename.name.fullname.key = valueAccessing them one by one is fine if the key is known.What I need now, though, is to access ALL values from say name.name.name without knowing the keys (integers to be exact). The values then have to be added to an ArrayList to be displayed in a List.The keys are completely random, so I don't know the range beforehand (I can't and don't want to hardcode the range of range of keys for each single properties file), so simply looping through a previously defined range isn't what I need here. Also, the keys are not successive.
How can I do this with AS3?Just for clarification as this seems to be a little confusing;I do not want to parse the properties file. I rather want to solve this using the methods AS and Flex already provide.The ResourceBundle class already has a method that outputs the content of the specified bundle. However, it contains all values. What I need is just a subset of values that match a given key pattern.Edit:To make this easier, I can drop the key pattern matching and create a new resource file with a distinct pattern. Now I only need to get all key-value pairs (I need both the integers from the keys and the value) from that resource.

I'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....
the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

I want to create a Flash movie which displays four numerical values. I am a teacher and the four numbers are pupil teampoints gained during the week in class. Each friday I want to open the Flash movie and the four numbers to be displayed with a bit of music in the background for dramatic effect!I want the Flash movie to retrieve the four numbers from a txt file located in the same folder as the movie. I want this as other teachers at my school will then be able to come along and change the totals without having to fiddle around in Flash, and also so that the values can be entered before the children arrive in class. Is this possible? I think there are functions in Flash that retrieve information from txt files but I am not sure!
