ActionScript 3.0 :: Duplicating AddEventListener Functionality With A Loop?
Jun 19, 2009
I have 14 movie clips on the stage, each of which has it's own on and off mode and each goes to a separate URL.I would like to use loops to consolidate the code however I am having trouble with the handler.So far I am using the code below but the question is how do you give each button it's own functionality since the handler is the same?
Code:
for (var i:uint = 1; i < 3; i++) {
this["lexus"+i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver);

Inside the iframes are two images from a Flash presentation for Arm & Hammer. I am doing something similar for them and need to duplicate, if possible, the menuing seen here. All I have is the SWF file, which I don't want to put up on the web. For one thing it's pretty big and I don't want to make people sit through it just to get to the menu.
The menu appears as a row of circles. When you mouse over the circles, they expand, and a submenu structure appears. In the example shown here, in Pic 2, I have put my cursor on the PRICING / SPEC SHEETS link. You can see that two sub menu choices appear PRICING and SPECS. These are simply links to downloadable PDFs, no big deal.

The follow code produces a strawberry image that falls from the top of the screen to the bottom. I tried using a for loop to create 10 different instances of this but it doesn't seem to work for me.(Note: ranx is a number produced randomly earlier in the program)
Code:
var nstrawberry:strawberry = new strawberry();
stage.addChild(nstrawberry);
nstrawberry.x = ranx;

I'm trying to duplicate comboboxes in a for loop. The comboboxes are populated with data using the additem function from an array of information. The first combobox is in place at runtime and populated with the data and then, after a user selects how many comboboxes he wants, I run a function to duplicate it. this is the easy part. Everything is duplicated as expected, but as for the data in the duplicated comboboxes, there is no data inside of them!
Code:
var carFieldsArray:Array = new Array (allCars.carMC);
for (var q=0; q<_root.howManyCars;q++) {
if (q>0) {
temp = carFieldsArray[q-1].duplicateMovieClip("carMC"+q, allCars.getNextHighestDepth());
temp._y += 55;
[Code] .....
The carArray is the array with the data. The carfields array is an array that i created for easy access to the comboboxes carMan is the combobox.

I have this map I'm creating in Flash. You click on a state, then you can click on an icon to view a tooltip/popup of some information. What I was trying to do was instead of creating new functions and event listeners for every different icon is to use a for loop...but it's not going so well.[code]...

I want to add a series of event listeners. they work fine in individual lines of code:
ActionScript Code:
home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, route);
resume.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, route);
portfolio.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, route);
contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, route);
but when i use this loop, i get a 1006 error, "value is not a function":
ActionScript Code:
var buttonNumber:Number;
var buttonName:Array=new Array("home","resume","portfolio","contact");
for (buttonNumber=0;buttonNumber<4;buttonNumber++) {
buttonName[buttonNumber].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,route); }
is there something obvious that's wrong with my last line in that loop? i've narrowed it down to the part where I call the array value. but after that - I'm at a loss!

I am trying to add event listeners to a series of buttons using a for loop but can't get the event listeners to trace the name of which button was rolled over. Here's a simplified version of the code.

I am creating an app with Papervision, and I'm trying to create an interactive grid.I have created a for loop to lay out each tile of the grid, but I want each tile to be individually interactive. I have tried a few things but no luck so far. This is basically how far I am:
Code:
for (var i:uint = 0; i < 10; i++) {
for (var j:uint = 0; j < 10; j++) {

Everything works fine except MouseEvent.CLICK addEventListener.menuInfo variable contains part of defined instace name.cURL contains full URL to link.If I trace menuInfo variable, it outputs correctly in order as I exptected.But last event overwrites everything to last element of xList (contains XML list).How do I make this work correctly
Code:
function createMenuEventListener(xList:XMLList):void

Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
teacherOptions.btnAction[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBtnAction);
}
I have 3 buttons inside the teacherOptions movie clip and they are called
btnAction0
btnAction1
btnAction2
The code I am using doesn't seem to work...I don't want to create an event listener for each of the buttons beacuse they are going to be a lot more than 3, how can I do what I want to do but without errors ??
PD: I know that if the buttons weren't a suboject the correct code would be:
Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
this["btnAction" + i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onBtnAction);
}
But when it's a subobject you are dealing...things change.

I am working on an Augmented Reality project .. This is the code that is called when the marker makes contact with the webcam.
[Code]...
Every time I remove the marker and put it back in view .. this script is called and is causing the action to duplicate itself over and over each time the marker is present. How can I do some sort of check to see if this is already added so that it wont duplicate ?

Here's the deal... I built a dynamic image gallery that runs hoizontally, and the idea is tu duplicate it and, when it reaches a certain point, use it's duplicate, so that there's the illussion of a "never ending" gallery.The problem is that, when duplicating the movieclip, it appears empty, even though I duplicate it after having loaded every picture.

I have two small dots (stars) that I want to duplicate. I have created a function-[ [code]I placed the function on a blankMC in the onClipevent (load) section. In the onClipEvent (enterFrame) I have placed a setinterval command [code]Now this waits 8 seconds and then creates a massive amount of duplicated stars - more than I want. I had just put the duplicate movie bit in a movie every couple of frames and that did what I wanted but I am trying to challenge myself and use functions and code.

Whenever I make a code to duplicate anything in a reaction to an action, i get the problem of having my initial duplicated mc destroyed upon re-duplicating (you fire bullets and the one shot before the last always disappears and so).The thing is, if you take kirupa's "How to Fire"-tutorial, download the source and run it, the thing works like a charm. However, even if i copy every last single bit of code and content to a new document, the duplication process acts as described above.In addition, here's a quote from the tutorial "How to Fire" [url]
explain how on earth one would get "_level0.bullet" from something the likes of "trace(this._name)", which, of course, returns the instance name. Which would, in the aforementioned tutorial's case, be, in fact, "bullet". Not "_level0.bullet". He states "It's not the instance name"... Well, what the heck is it then? The result of the trace in question varies relying COMPLETELY upon the given instance name. If you write "Bratwurst" as the instance name, you get "Bratwurst" from the trace, as god is my wittness.
Even if i remove EVERYTHING from the code that even COULD, by the user's will, remove the duped mc, the initial problem remains. You can only fire one bullet at any given time, other(s) disappear.It's most propable that there's just something i've missed completely, and end up making myself looking like an ***, but still.For those who want a code, just take a look at the tutorial (the URL above). Everything's basically the same. I would also appreciate if someone were to try what i've described, which is to copy everything from the tutorial .fla and placing the stuff on a fresh document.

but in a more complex way. I have an existing 2d array that I want to copy to a new 2d array (but the NEW array can vary in size!).
For example, my current 2d array with the data:
var old_array =
[[0,1,2,3,4],
[5,6,7,8,9],
[10,11,12,13]];
And I want the new array to contain the same data as the old_array, yet if the new array is larger, it will put a zero instead of 'undefined'...like this:
var new_array =
[[0,1,2,3,4,0,0],
[5,6,7,8,9,0,0],
[10,11,12,13,0,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,0]];
