ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Add , Move And Then Remove Text?
Feb 16, 2012
In almost all video games when you take damage a number appears above your head the slowly moves up and fades off out of existence. My question is, how would you do this in AS3 reliably with up to say 20-30 of these max occurring on the screen at once?
I know you can do an enter frame event listener on each one and a timer to let it live for a certain time span. The problem is making sure that the listeners are all being destroyed. I am also concerned about having that may enter frame listeners all going at once.

I have an input text box and a button. When you type specific words into the input box and then hit the button it sends you to a specific frame. What I want to do is essentially remove the button and only have to hit the enter key to submit my text and to move to the specified frame. Here is my current code that is placed on the main timeline, first frame:
[Code]...
I'm trying to just hit the enter key instead of having to click the submit button. I've been trying to get it working for the past couple of hours but haven't had any luck. My best guess is that the enter key isn't valid because it's an input box and may be confused with trying to create a new line (even though my input box is set to single line and not multiline). If so, is there any other way to do this?

I have a map that I created to display some results of asmall town election. There is a statsBox movieClip that pops up onmouseOver on each county that displays the results pulled from anXML file. The statsBox is on the stage and I am dynamicallycreating a movieClip (named candidate) that goes inside of it thatlists the candidate, percentage and so on. As I move around themap, the info for each county gets placed on top of the info fromthe previous county. How do I remove each instance of candidate onmouseOff? This is my code:
function showBox(e:MouseEvent):void {
var raceList:XMLList = xmlData.row.(AreaNum == areaNum
&& RaceID == 484);

The problem is that this code is in a frame and when I leave the frame the MovieClips I have created will still be there. I think this is because I'm creating a global MovieClip right? If so then is there a way to declare the MovieClips as local? [code]...

I have a movieClip in which by default it does not have an 'onPress' function applied to it. However, I have a button on the stage that the user can press to 'unlock' that mc, and when they unlock it, it sets a 'locked' variable to false, calls a function which checks the 'locked' status, and if it is false, it that sets the onPress for that movieclip (which makes it draggable)If that button is clicked again, 'locked' is set to true, and that same function is called again, and then the status is recognized as locked...but I need it to somehow remove/delete the 'onPress'function. I know the first thought would be to just set 'enabled' for the mc to false...which I tried at first.... but the problem is that some of the mc's are transparent in the middle, and there can be other items below them...and those items below need to be 'clickable'. Even though the top mc is not enabled, it still recognizes that it has had an 'onPress' function applied to it, and thus won't let anything below it be clicked. (When the movie first launches, the function setting the onPress has not yet been set, and so the items below it are therefore clickable).
I know that might have been a bit confusing, so let me know if you have any questions to further clarify. need to make a movieclip that was clickable (through an onPress function) onClickable, but also treat it like it has never had an onPress applied, so that any items below it can be clicked.

I have a button that uses attachMovie to add a movieclip to the stage. You can add multiple instances of this clip to the stage, which works fine. I also have a feature whereby you can select and move these objects around the stage one by one. I am trying to add a feature whereby you can select more than one object at a time (indicated with a drop shadow - which I have working) and then move them together. This feature would also allow you to rotate the selected objects by 90, leaving the unselected objects where they are. I'm fairly certain that I'll need an array to hold the selected objects, and then use this info to move/transform only the chosen objects, but I can't figure out how to implement this.

I am having a problem in adding and removing the the email field text boxes dynamically. I have an add button beside an email field. On clicking it a new email field is generated below it dynamically with a remove button beside it(this too dynamically). The problem is if I have added 5 email fields and I want to, say remove the third email field, then i have to reset the 'y' position of the subsequent email field text box; i.e; I have to reset the 'y' position of 4th and 5th email fields. This problem becomes serious if I have 10 instead of 5 email fields. I have learn that in Javascript we can do this use of a container that automatically resets the position of the text fields. Is there any way out in Flash for this?

get something to work. What I'm trying to achieve is this: there's a slideshow that automatically changes pictures every 10 secs (I've used a kirupa tutorial to achieve this). The pictures are loaded from an xml file, which also contains captions for the pictures. What I would like to do is to have the caption fade in and slightly move to the left with each picture change. E.g. picture 1 is displayed, caption 1 fades in, moves to the left and stays there; picture 2 is displayed, caption 2 fades in, moves to the left and stays there, and so on.

I'm trying to figure out how to make a dynamically loaded image actually move across my screes. So far, my script loads the image, but stops after 1 frame. Without the loaded image everything works just fine. It's all Action Script, so my gues is that I probably missed something along the way.Here's my script:
Code:
scaler.loadMovie("image.jpg");
set the starting value for 2 variables
var targScale = 45;[code].........

how do we remove object( sprite which has an external swf as it's child ) from display and more importantly from memory yet we still can use the same variable to add another object (yes another sprite like the one we removed yet has different content).., "
i did tried the removeChildAt thing it did remove all the child from the display list but i still can hear sound from video running.
here is small scale code of what i'm doing (sorry that i can only give you chunk code of loading and adding)
// var SWFList:XMLList; //used to hold a list of all external swf source,atribute and etc// var totalSWF:int; //hold the total number of external swf there is to be loaded
// var swfLoader:Loader; //instance of loader class used to load the external swf
