ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Create Card Instances Based On The Movie Clip Symbol In The Library?

Jan 28, 2010

the idea is to create a loop to that displays 16 cards face down in two rows and eight columns using either a "for" loop or "while" loop, execute 16 times once for each clip.use new to dynamically create card instances based on the Movie Clip symbol in the library.use a modulo operator to operate the x position of each clip use Math.floor to operate the y position of each clip set dynamic text value of the card clip to show appropriate card number add card to the display list if using the iteration variable ("while" loop).this is what i am using and i get one card (the stack of 16) in the bottom left hand corner with a 16 trace statements of "instance 2"

//create variable for number of columns

I am hoping that using something like swf2flv will embed the .mp3 into the .flvBefore we get into a debate about reasons NOT to convert a .swf to a .flv it is absolutely necessary for my project.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Images Into Library Dynamically

Apr 5, 2006

I have Button components that are populated dynamically. The buttons need to each have an icon (using the button.icon property).The icon however, is retrieved via webservices so all I recieve is a URL to the jpg that needs to be loaded as the icon. When using the icon property, you load an instance of something in your library over the top of your button. So I was wondering if there was a way to retrieve this url, and load it into the library which would then allow me to use it as an icon??

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Load A Library Mc Using A String?

I want to load one out of 18 different instances from my library (exported as mc1-mc18). In AS2 this was simple! I fetched the variable (whC) that contained the name of the movieclip to be loaded and just put it into attachMovie

Code:
_loc.attachMovie(whC,"clip"+k,this.getNextHighestDepth());

In AS3 do I have to use this long if/else statement to make it work the same?

I am in the process of creating an info box Object, which displays one of the five organizational informations, dynamically on the user's choice. All the code is in the associated Class.I am stuck with one issue. It requires adding a PNG image, from a set of 5 small images, placed in the Library, on the top-left corner of the movie; appropriate to the contents. I tried adding an image container movieclip at the required position; but don't know how to attach the image, from the library, to this container.

Flash :: Dynamically Adding Children From Library Using Array?

Feb 1, 2010

i'm porting an old AS2 project to AS3, And have encounter a problem. I've tried a few different things but had no success.

in AS2 when dynamically attaching a MC from the library i would sometimes use an array. the array would hold linkage reference's, like so;

var mc:String = state_ar[currentState];
this.container.attachMovie(mc,mc,this.getNextHighestDepth());
targetMC = this.container[mc];

How would i do this in AS3?

Actionscript 3 :: Accessing External Library Symbols Dynamically?

Aug 14, 2010

I am loading an external SWF containing uninstantiated MovieClip Symbols. I can get the SWF loaded, no problem. If I call:loader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain.getDefinition( "TestClip" ) as ClassI get the class of a Library symbol called "TestClip", which I can then instantiate. Jawesome.The issue I'm having is that basically I want to have access to all of the Library symbols without needing to explicitly know their names. I was hoping to use:

describeType( loader.contentLoaderInfo.applicationDomain );

...to get reflective access to the Library symbols, but the XML returned doesn't seem to include any references to them. Perhaps I'm calling it on the wrong object? I also don't want to have to explicitly create coded instances to gain access. This is for a tool for Flash artists, and it's important to avoid code, even simple code.

Flash - Load Images Dynamically From Library Not Externally?

Sep 7, 2010

Trying to load images dynamically from library NOT externally since i want these images to be loaded when the site is launched. Basically i have several buttons, each button returns an event that throws a specific image name to grab. Here is the function;

function sendDisplayData(e:MouseEvent){
display_mc.displayName.text = e.currentTarget.parent.menuItemName.text; //name of image eg. "myImageName" in the library;
//create the image object

[code]....

So how can i make this function dynamic by using a String and then grabbing the image related to that string from the library.

I'd like to add a couple of different MC's to the particle stream. I'd like to do that by referencing different items in the library.So I have 12 different particles in the library exported with classes named from Bubble0 to Bubble10 now as I run through my for loop I'd like it to use a different particle each time. first time I tried:

ActionScript Code:
var bubbleArray:Array = new Array();
bubbleArray.push(Bubble0,Bubble1,Bubble2,Bubble3,Bubble4,Bubble5,Bubble6,Bubble7,Bubble8,Bubble9,Bubble10,Bubble11)
for (var j:uint = 0; j < NUMBER_OF_BUBBLES; j++) {

P.S. I tried searching the forum for an answer but the terms are so common I couldn't find what I'm looking for.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Random MovieClip From Library To Stage Dynamically?

Aug 4, 2009

How to add random movie clip to stage from many different movie clips in library? If I wanted to add one movie clip to stage I would do liko so:

Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMove);
function onMove(e:MouseEvent):void {
var mc:MovieClip = new Ball();
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
addChild(mc);
}

Code above works perfect but I tried following but with no success, no errors, but nothing happens - no mc's are added to stage. I have 6 movie clips in library and they all are linked, exported for actionscript. On MouseOver I want to add random movie clip from those six movie clips to the stage.

Code:
var myArray:Array = [mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4, mc5, mc6];
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onLoop);
function onLoop(e:MouseEvent):void {
for (var i:int = 0; i< myArray.length; i++) {
var randomMc:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*i);
var mc:MovieClip = new myArray[randomMc];
addChild(mc);
mc.x = mouseX;
mc.y = mouseY;
}}

Actionscript 3 :: Dynamically Load Movieclip From Library Without Exporting In Frame 1?

Mar 9, 2010

I have some fairly large movieclips in the library which need to be dynamically loaded at runtime. I don't want to export them all in frame 1, because that would slow down initial loading of the movie. I tried putting an instance of each of these clips later in the timeline where they wouldn't normally be encountered. When I then tried to load one from the library dynamically, I was able to successfully get an instance of the movieclip, but its currentFrame property was 0 and I couldn't see anything on the stage. As soon as I enabled "Export in frame 1", it worked properly. Does this old trick of putting an instance on the timeline somewhere no longer work in AS3?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Creating MovieClip From Library With External Class

Jun 10, 2010

I am making a Thumbnail class which is part of my Photo Gallery Package that I am building with the intent of automatically generating my thumbnails. I do not want to limit myself to just AS3 animations, I would also like the ability to use timeline animations. I have a system using "in" and "out" for frame labels which I find very efficient and I get stuff done quickly. So I created the thumbnails holder MovieClip with the animations and have it linked in my Library, however, when I try to pass it to my Thumbnail Class, I only get one instance and I need to create several instances.

Document Class
ActionScript Code:
var thumbCont:mcThumb = new mcThumb();
thumbNails = new Thumbnails(thumbCont);

Thumbnails Class
ActionScript Code:
var thumbContainer:MovieClip;
public function Thumbnails(thumbCont:MovieClip,) {
thumbContainer = thumbCont;
}private function createThumbs():void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < aThumbs.length; i++) {
[Code] .....

I eliminated most of the additional stuff. What this does is that it doesn't create several thumbContainers, rather it just uses the one. So how would I be able to generate several of them? I can obviously create an Array with them and create them in my document class, but if I can avoid that and have my thumbnail class do it by itself, that would be perfect.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Attach Movieclips From The Library Into One Main Movieclip?

Dec 19, 2008

point me to anything which will help me dynamically attach movieclips from the library into one main movieclip, which then I can duplicate it many times..You see, what happens with duplicateMovieClip,is that it duplicates the main movieclip itself, without taking its contents..I want to take the contents too. The only way I can imagine this could work, was if I could take a 'snapshot' of the movieclip and keep it as a bitmap, from which this could be duplicated - because I dont need the movieclip and its contents to contain code or have any animation playing. I just want it as an image, so I can create a pattern from..

Actionscript 3 :: Instantiating Movieclips From Library And Also Creating Them Dynamically Is Stop() Needed?

May 2, 2011

In the past, we've put a stop() action in the timeline of movieclip symbols so that the timeline would not play and we would control all animations via code. We've also done that to the main timeline as well. Is this still needed for performance reasons? Is this needed for dynamically created movieclips? I know that the Sprite class should be used if there is no timeline associated with it.
