So i have a movieclip on stage and I addChild(myMovieClip). I need all the movieclips to have a number (like the first one i put with be 1, the second 2 and so forth) How can I add to the movie clips custom properties like myMovieClip.mynumber then give them their numbers when i add them to the stage
addChild(myMovieClip)
myMovieClip.mynumber = 56;
I have two movieclips; mc1 & mc2. When rolling over mc1 I'd like to change the alpha level of mc2 to 50%.
View 2 RepliesIf I have three classes:
public class Example {
public function Example () {
}[code]............
You can see that the two last classes extend the first one, and both have the 'variable' property. In case that I have an instance of Example and I am sure it is also an ExtendedExample OR AnotherExtendedExample instance, is there some way to access the 'variable' property? Something like
function functionThatReceivesAnExtendedExample (ex:Example):void {
if(some condition that I may need) {
ex.func()
Lately i discovered MATE (for Flex development) and was wondering: how do i bind a property in a view (actually a navigatorcontent component) to another property in a class so that they stay in synchronization (meaning that whenever the property in the class changes the property in the view also changes).
So if we have a view called Target.mxml and a property targertProp how do we bind it to the class called SourceClass with property SourceProp?
For example, if an application uses class, method, or property which is supported only by Flash Player10.When you run the application on Flash Player9, what will happen? Flash Player will be crashed? Or Flash Player will show you a message screen to upgrade your Flash Player? Or the application will normally run and will ignore the part which uses the unsupported class, method, or property? Or the application will cause a runtime error when the unsupported class, method, or property are called?
View 2 RepliesGiven a dynamic or non-dynamic class like the following:
package {
public class MyClass {
public var myProperty:String;
public var myBooleanProperty:Boolean;
public function MyClass() {}
}}
Flex 3 allows you to assign a value to myProperty like this:
myClassInstance["myProperty"] = "myValue";
myClassInstance["myBooleanProperty"] = true;
I regularly parse XML to get property names and their values then update correlated classes using this technique; however, Flex 4 no longer allows assigning the boolean property. I don't have a work-around.
If you trace the results:
trace(myClassInstance.myProperty) // Returns "myValue"
trace(myClassInstance.myBooleanProperty) // Returns null
I have the following inheritance structure:
var environment:AvEnvironment = new AvEnvironment(...);
addChild(environment);
environment.addChild(new Terrain());
environment.addChild(new Player());
I am trying to access a public property from AvEniroments class through the Player class, however I'm getting an undefined property error (#119). I've tried the following:
this.x = AvEnvironment.xs // public property in this class
this.x = parent.xs
I've also tried something like this:
var ev:AvEnvironment = AvEnvironment(parent);
this.x = ev.xs
but I get a TypeError. Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I was wondering how do you access the stage property from a different class that's not the principal class tied to the fla? Essentially, I have main.as which calls another class menu.as, and I can't seem to be able to use the stage.stageWidth property from menu.as. What's the proper way to be able to use the stage property from any class? Do I have to import it separately each time?

The Main.as file will have all of the game logic, such as the mysteryNumber.
The other actionScript files represent rooms that the user may click and depending on the 'mysteryNumber', it will execute the 1 of 6 scenarios.
So for example, if a user clicks the Library page, the LibPage.as will call the 'mysteryNumber' and execute some code to display on the library page.
It will be the same for the other 4 rooms.
The problem I have is that the LibPage.as won't call the 'theNumber' property from Main.as
Here's the Main.as

import flash.display.MovieClip;

This seems like it should be an easy one but I can't figure it out.I'm trying out a very simple class that, when created, loads and XML file into the class's property.

I can use toString() to return any string desired when using trace(instance), is it possible to return other types of objects?For example, I may have this class:
public class List
{
private var _content:Array = [];
public function add():void{}
public function remove():void{}
}
I normally need to make a getter that returns the _content, eg:
public function get content():Array{ return _content; }
So that I can do things like:
for each(var i:Object in myList.content)
Can I make myList in the above case actually return the value of content automatically? So that I can do like:
trace(myList); // item, item, item (similar output as tracing an array)
for each(var i:Object in myList)

is there any way, within a class definition, to access the instance name of the class?as in, say you have a class "playerObject", and you instantiate an instance of it like usualplayer:playerObject = new playerObject();is there an inbuilt property or variable i can access within the playerObject class code to return "player"?if, in the constructor, i trace(this) it returns [object Object], i tried things like this.name, this._name etc, of course they didnt work...

I have a problem with the piece of code that's been annoying me for a week. It should be very simple but all my attempts at a solution somehow seem to get thwarted by an invisible hand that wants me to fail.Here is the scenario: I am trying to create an image strip consisting of image thumbnails. When one mousovers each image it should print its information (say a name) in a textfield.I created an image container class that loads the images through a url request, then an image strip class that receives an array with image names and urls and displays them in a row. So far so good.
However when it comes to showing the info I have no clue how to address which image is being pointed at. I put a variable called imageIndex inside my imageContainer object, then put all the created containers in imageStrip's for-loop inside an array called mgContainerArray. I created a for loop in my fla that goes through this array and assigns all those containers a mouseover event listener. What I'm stumped with is that there is no way I can access the imageIndex variable from my function to tell the code which image is currently being mouseovered. It keeps giving me an error.Here is the code:
Code:
for(var i:Number=0; i<myImageStrip.imgContainerArray.length;i++){
myImageStrip.imgContainerArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,
