I have a loop in a function which condition depends on some variables a,b,c and d. I would like to change that condition depending on where the function is called from. Would it be possible to assign those conditions to a variable (string maybe)?
Like this
function varcon():void{
while (conditionVar){
a=...

Is it possible to use a for loop within an if condtional statement? I have been trying but just get errors no matter what I do. I have a series of buttons that pop up in a window and I want to make it so a click anywhere outside of the buttons will close the pop up window. I have been doing this by running a hitTest that checks if any of the buttons are being touched one at a time. It works, but it seems overly tedious, especially since there are a lot of buttons. I do not want to put the hitTest on the background of the window because it will cause the mouse cursor to turn into a hand even when it is not over one of the actual buttons.
If the for loop can't be within an if condition, then maybe there is a better way to use the hitTest code, but I couldn't figure that out either. Here's a simplified version of what I have now (it works, but is too much code..):

Just wondering...s it possible to create a while() loop with as condition comparing a value against all items in array?e.g.
ActionScript Code:
while(myValue == for each(var i in myArray)) {
//Do Something

i tried to use setInterval() and Timer function, but it doesn't work
Code:
for(i:Number=0; i<100; i++){
if(i%2 ==0 ){

I'm wrestling with an issue right now and I'm hoping for some help, and more so, I'm hoping I can explain my problem. With the thought of a "fill in the blank/drag and drop/string replacement" interaction, here's how my swf works:
I have a various movie clips that can be dropped on various movie clips.When one movie clip is dropped on another, the corresponding __#__ within myTitle.text will be replaced with a string that is related to the movie clip that was just dropped: i.e. myTitle.text becomes 'This is the most annoying [thing]...'Per that example I just mentioned, in the code below, my for loop searches for __1__ and moves the hTarg movie clips accordingly.Once a __1__ is replaced with the associated string I mentioned, the indexOf the __1__ becomes null because it no longer exists in the string, and the following startRect(s) below also become null.
So, my question is: How do I continue to loop through my for loop if the first index is null? I hope this makes sense, and I'm hoping someone can ituit what I'm trying to do based of my lousy explanation. If more clarification is needed, let me know and I will do my best to further explain.

I'm loading a variable from a .txt file into flash (per client request).The variable is as follows &ClientNumberOf=4 so the variable = 4, this works on trace, happy, joy When I try and add the variable to my for loop..[code]I've tried a slew of different options...(for example)var newVariable: Number = ClientNumberOf; Nothing works, again, trace works, but script fails to work when I try and dynamically set the loop?!

Is there another way to achieve the same results?
I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands[code]...

I'm loading 8 thumbnails via XML, placing in a sprite, and spacing them out with a helper grid class. This part works. What does not work is when I try to assign a mask to each of these (using a simpleRectangle class I made) I appear to only be assigning a mask to the last image. Am I doing something wrong with 'imageLoader.mask = _mask;' ?
My ultimate endeavor here is to click the thumbnail and animate the mask to reveal the entire thumb.I nested the showPictures function so it could have a reference to the masks, which is not optimal.

public class MiniGallery extends Sprite

How can I load sounds using a loop? As there are around 20 sound files named something like s1.mp3, s2.mp3......sn.mp3
We can load sounds and create dynamic sound object in AS2 something like this:
ActionScript Code:
for(n=1;n<=20;n++){
_root["s"+n]=new Sound();
_root["s"+n].loadSound("s"+n+".mp3");
}
Is there anyway in AS3 to create dynamic sound objects?

Well, i have this line of code
Code:
var t1:thumbBack = addChild(new thumbBack(x, y));
And i want to create many thumbBacks with names t1, t2, t3... with a for loop.
I tried something like this, but it doesnt seem to work
Code:
for(i=0; i<8; i++){
var this["t"+i]:thumbBack = addChild(new thumbBack(10 + i*200 , y));
}
I'm not sure why the dynamic text only appears once and doesn't loop. It's in a movieclip that's in another tweened movieclip. [code]...
View 4 RepliesI'm creating a searchable database in Flash where all the content loads dynamically from external sources. the main interface is columns of buttons where clicking in the first column sends the user to a named frame with a second column of buttons, then onto the third column then the final content is loaded into a new movie clip. The interface uses just one button(a movie clip) and the columns of buttons are created with a duplicateMovieClip function. that part works fine. However I can't get the button labels to load from an external text file even though I'm using the explicit button names, and I can't get the buttons to react to clicks even though they're "hot", i.e., the cursor changes when I mouse over them. the button behaviors use the dynamic button names.
Here's my code:
//creates a load Variables object
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("text/patent01NumbersText.txt");
//this makes a column of duplicate button movie clips
for (i=0;i<13;i++){
