I have an array packed with 100 movieclips. Say, I randomly move each array element across the stage. Now I decide to stop a specific mc. What I would normally do is remove it from the array it currently is at, so the for loop cannot "see" it. When I work with only one mc, I simply set a boolean flag, e.g. ActionScript Code: var isMoving:Boolean = false;, and make it possible to move only when the flag is true. However, it fails to work right when there's more objects on the stage, because once I set the flag to false, all mc's freeze, not the one that actually was meant to. Finally, here comes my question: is it feasible to assign a flag to a specific element of an array? Each element to have its own flag?
I am tring to create a simple mine game..so I created a couple movie clips one of which is to be assigned a value of "0" and the other is to be assigned a value of "1" randomly. That is if the one on the left has "0" the other should have "1" and that if I click the one having "0" value ,let it explode or do something..The problem is that I am not sure how to use "onClipEvent(enterFrame)" and on(press).. I named my MCs as "mcleft1" and "mcright
what is the use of flag variable in the flex RegExpValidator. what I am to do is to create a validator that can provide variety of error messages as in EmailValidator
I have 4 movieclips. MC_flag MC_flag2 MC_flag3 MC_flag4
I have a enemy. (Not programmed yet ) And MC_dude, the player.
When I move MC_dude on top of MC_flag1,2,3, or 4, I want the flag to change to a different Movieclip (An american flag that I have already made.) after 5 seconds. I would also like to know how to make it go to the next level after you cap all the flags. Also, If the enemy captures the flag, it displays a lost screen.
this project is created in FlashDevelop. It is a waving a flag by clicking on it,but, how I can make the flag flown directly when i execute the swf?.Here's the code:
I've been trying to piece together a way to have an image with a flag wave fade in as soon as the movie loads. Once the image is faded in almost all the way, I want the waving to slow to a stop so at the end, it's a static image. I've gotten most of this accomplished, however, once the flag wave slows and stops, the entire image shifts up and to the right. I'm sure it has something to do with some displacement variable, but since I'm no coder I can't seem to figure out how to stop this.[code]...
I'm making a site that has a scrolling set of thumbnails and then when you click on one of the thumbnails a video will play. I used this (httpurl].....) tutorial and the scrolling is fine, but when I set the thumbnail to go to a certain frame/flag it doesn't go? I click on the thumbnail> +> Movieclip> goto and play at frame or label> and put in the label I've used for the frame (F15) and then when I test the movie nothing happens when I click on the thumbnail. Can someone help me? I'm dyin' here.
I am trying to make an API in which there are 3 screens: 1. User drags items to a blank square(area) and makes a flag in the area with the items-i will call it "the flag" from now on 2. User dresses a puppet-i will call it "the puppet" from now on 3. User can print puppet+the flag(and he can arrange it-over/under the puppet, resize, rotate etc.)
I think all I have to do is create an MC with the flag and then move it over frames, or insert the flag (blank square+components used) to an MC in advance, and by code remove unused items and then "pop" it in the other frame (but then i need it to be the edited one, not the original). I attached the frame. The square is the area and the blue squares are the draggable items. I want to preserve that edit (post drag locations).
I'd like to mention that i'm a totally newbye with flash and actionscriptI'd like to load some external text inside a movie clip that contains a bitmap from library.It is a waving flag created via AS2 with "Waving***EffectAS2" from flash-filter.netthe code is:
Code: // attach filter on stage var myFilter:MovieClip = this.attachMovie("WavingFlagEffectAS2", "WavingFlagEffectAS2", 1);
I'm working on a timeline system which you can see here:http:[url]....I am generating each flag using attachMovie to duplicate a TextFlagMC over and over, giving each one a date and blurb.If there are a lot of them on screen they often overlap.I wrote this code on the 1st frame of the TextFlagMC so that each flag will create itself into TopShelfMC, a shadowed container MC on a higher layer:
onRollOver = function(){//Pop flag ontop of all others TopShelfFlag = _root.Timeline.TopShelf.attachMovie("TextFlagTopSh elf", "TextFlagTopShelf" + FlagNumber, + FlagX)[code]....
and to turn it off when we rollOut, I have this code on the 1st frame of the TextFlagTopShelfMC that just got loaded in the TopShelf layer:
onRollOut = function(){//Pop flag ontop of all others unloadMovie(_root.Timeline.TopShelf["TextFlagTopShelf" + FlagNumber]); }
it works.but often times not if you roll from one button right to another.
it is possible to create a waving flag effect from the image in Flash using ActionScript 3? How can I do that? I found a lot of topics like this, but have not found a solution
Code: var run:Boolean; var jump:Boolean; if (run && jump){ // }
is flash smart enough to flag the if statement as false based on the first parameter? or will it still process both booleans, even though it is known the if statement must return false based on the "run" Boolean alone. just wondering if its a waste of processing, although trivial at this level.
I'm trying to create a flash animation with the effect of a waving flag and have seen online some, but what I liked most is the following website: [URL]
But I have a question because I want to customize it a bit more.
Actionscript banner is perfect except for one question I have. When you edit from the page: [URL]
and paste the resulting code to my actionscript 3 flash cs4:
import cfx.Efectos.*; var neBandera=new FxOndular(new Bandera(0,0),new Point(0,50),new Point(2,2),8,3); neBandera.Start();
If in a situation, the addEventListener is being assigned more than once for same actionwhat will happen then? Suppose on frame 5 there is ample_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK...... ... and when user navigates the application/site it comes on frame 5 again and again. Will the addEventListener be applied more than once on that button? If yes then what will happen on clicking on that button? will the associated function be called more than once now?
I've written a class in AS2 that extends the Object class It's an abstract class for debugging purposes. The class is defined in an external .as file. The problem is that in an .fla file, after I assigned a variable to a new instance of the class, and I trace that variable, it comes back as 'undefined' The reason it's a problem is that I want to call methods on the instance of the Debug objectIn the .fla, I have the following code:
//import any external classes import Debug; //Create general application properties
i am having a problem assigning letters to each position in the array the for loops im using are working but when i check the variables after they have run they are still empty
for (var i:Number = 0; i < selectedWord_str.length; i++){ letterNeeded_array[i] = selectedWord_str.charAt(i); }
i have also having similar problems with another for loop
for (var i:Number = 0; i < selectedWord_str.length; i++){ interface_mc.display_txt.text += "?"; letterGuessed_array[i] = "?"; }
where display_txt is staying empty as is letterGuessed_array i have checked the loop is running.
I need a way to wait running the parseCSV command until the readFile event has updated the content of importData. I have seen a few things about custom event dispatchers but cannot quite figure out how to use them in my situation.
private var importData : String; public function importFile(event:MouseEvent):void { var data:String = chooseFile(); parseCSV(importData);
Basically, Im learning how the socket class works in AS3, seems pretty simple, but I dont know what port to assign in the second connect() parameter, let say I wanna load a image from the web, what should I have to do to figure what port is the right one?
I have different textarea in a application and these have different Ids, once user move cursor inside in the specific textarea, delete button activate and it execute a function to remove this item, the Id of the textarea assigned as string variable, In this case how could i delete the component from Canvas
I had a bunch of movieclips on the stage and each of them gets assigned a variable called "clientName" onLoad.
I want to later reference the movieClip whose clientName was "foo" and changes its color, move it, make it bounce, whatever. It seems like it should be possible, but I don't know the syntax.
I've had this problem with Flash for awhile now and I've always been able to find a way to work around it, but this time, I think I'm just going to have to figure out a way to do it. Say I have a bunch of movieClips on the stage that have text fields in them that have data dynamically assigned to them from an SQL database. Once I've assigned data to these fields, can I reference a certain movieClip that contains a predefined value within its text field?
So, if I had three movieClips on the stage, with textfields in them that have the values "500" "600" and "700" is it possible to just reference the movieClip whose textfield currently says "700"? It doesn't have to be a just a textfield, either. If I could reference them by variables assigned to them. Like, it I assigned them a variable called "id" and the values were "500" "600" and "700" would it be possible to just reference the movieClip whose "id" is "700"?
stop(); toggleKonto.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,buttonPressed); function buttonPressed(event:MouseEvent){ MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop(2); }
What it does? Well, I have 4 tabs at the buttom of my flash application. I'm currently at Frame 1, also called toggleBuy. In Frame 2 I have toggleKonto.
I can easily run the swf and then click on the MovieClip assigned to toggleKonto, but when I'm at toggleKonto, I can't click back to toggleBuy (Frame 1).
