View 2 RepliesInstead of posting my entire files and such, I'll make a brief example of my situation and my desired outcome.My files consist of my document class entitled Engine.as and another class Abilities.as all within the same folder.On my stage I have a MovieClip with the instance name of item1_mc. On its personal timeline I have 2 frames, one entitled "inactive" and the other "active". Here's a sample of very similar code....
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;

How do I access item1_mc? In reality I have 6 different clips and I desire to access much more than frame changes...what's the overall best way to be able to interact with an item placed on the stage via an external .as file that is not the document class?
I have created an SWFloader class that creates a container on the stage and loads an external swf into it. How can I click a hotspot in the external swf and make it instruct the loader class to load a new external swf? Basically, how can I access the SWFloader class from the timeline of the external swf?
View 1 Repliesim still trying to get into the whole oop thing but I still have some things that i dont understand.I have a movieclip on stage that i want to access using an external class that lives in a different folder.Is there a way to access movieclips on stage from external classes or that i have to create a connection between the document class and then send the movieclip instance using a class method ?
View 1 RepliesI'm new to AS3 and I'm trying to load a data from a XML file ("AppData") and set the data (text) in a dynamic text field("Label") on the stage.

I'm currently working on a game. I'm breaking down each piece of the game into individual classes and movieclips. The intro begins by going to the main menu which is a MC in my fla library. This is called through the document class. then all actions the main menu MC performs are commanded through the MainMenu class. When starting the actual game, MainMenu calls a function from the document class, after it is removed from the stage, that puts an empty movieclip called Level on the stage.

View 13 RepliesI have a Main.fla (with Main.as as document class) that calls the external SWF (which has its own document class too)
ActionScript Code:
function startLoad() {
mLoader = new Loader();
[Code]....
Another question. Is it possible to do some kind of listener? Example, I call this external swf, and if the user press a button inside this external swf, this button triggers the listener on the Main.as? Something like running an external mini game, and wait for the results/hiscore.
How can I access objects and modify their property that is ALREADY placed on the stage using external classes (AS file)? I 'm a newbie of AS3 and followed some tutorials about AS3 not long ago. For I learned scripting in AS3 can be done using AS file rather than script on Timeline. But I have a question. How can I "find" and "modify"the objects on the stage, or inside a MovieClip , in AS3?
For example, I have a file call Stage004.fla which have no document class linkage. I place the MovieClip "StageMain" which links the Stage004.as on the stage. StageMain has a textfield in it named "textFieldStage001". The Stage004.as is ran using "Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE" since StageMain is on the stage. I create another AS file WindowRename , to test can I modify the text in "textFieldStage001".
Then the famous error #1109 occurred.
"1119: Access of possibly undefined property textFieldStage001 through a reference with static type Class."
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Stage004 extends MovieClip{
[Code] .....
I can reference the main library Class, but the clips nested within are coming up undefined and the usual parent.child.child method of accessing clips using getDefinition isn't working.
Here's my coding:
Code: Select allpackage {
import flash.display.*;
public class Menu extends MovieClip{
[Code]....
I tried both instances naming and Class naming in the library. It loads the clips within the menuClip. I can see them, but I don't have access for some reason.
Say I define a variable in a class file:
public var container:sprite;
I add the sprite to the stage and define it's x and y in the class file. How would I go about changing the x and y of the container within my fla file?

I'm trying to make a simple "tamagotchi-alike" application and i have encountered problems when trying to access a movieclip. To describe the situation, at the beginning there is nothing on the stage, then from a class called Kitty I attach a movieclip called mainStage with all the animations.

I have a blog that I insert swf video into via an iframe which references a CS4 published html page from my swf file. I would like to put html links into each individual blog post to act like a table of contents that someone could use to move to specific frames in my video.
View 3 RepliesHow do I get to the MovieClips within an externally loaded Movie Clip. Lets say I have a movie Called ONE in the swf I just loaded. How can I work with it alpha, position and other properties of the children of this clip? CODE IN MAIN TIMLINE:
[Code]...
Now its loaded I want to change the postino of the clip called ONE in the movie LoadedMC I just created.
I have a .txt file with 10 variables containing 10 sentences. The variables are named myText1, myText2, myText3, etc.
I want to be able to load one of these sentences at random into a dynamic text box.
My plan was to generate a random number i and concatonate it to the variable name (ie myText + i) then call that in a LoadVars.
However, I am not able to properly reference it.
I've used the GUI to create a rectangle that I turned into a button symbol (SimpleButton). I then edited the button so that it had 4 different button states and a text layer on top. I then created a class definition file for this object so that I could dynamically change the label text (the text layer) when adding instances of this button to the stage.
I was able to create and link a class file (DynamicButton.as) just fine, but when I try to access the text field that I created on the button, I get the error:
"Access of possibly undefined property btnLabel through a reference with static type com.examples:DynamicButton."
when i couldn't get that to work, I decided I'd try adding the TextField directly within the class definition file, using the following code:
package com.examples
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code].....
The problem is that I can't seem to add the TextField to the SimpleButton, as it's not a display object. So, I tried adding it to the parent of the simple button (and I figured, I'd just place it exactly above the button). But then I get a "null object reference." error.
is there a way to access GUI-created elements from w/i a class definition file? How would I add the TextField to the button using only AS3 inside of a my class definition file?

I would like to provide my own sortItemRenderer within an AdvancedDataGrid like so:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid sortItemRenderer="MyRenderer"></mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
MyRenderer is a class that I wrote, but Flex doesn't see it and gives "defintion not found" error, because it is not within the mx namespace. What is a clean way to make this to work?
Background: I have a project where i need to create multiple objects that consume the same base calss from an external .as file. each of the individual fla files that consume the base class need to pass a variable to the base class so the class can return information specific to the fla.
My question is,if i have an external class path set up, how do i get a variable on the first frame of the movie to be visible to the base class && how do i call upon its value from within the class.

I have problem accessing content from an Illustrator SWF(I create the swf using illustrator, I export I Save layers as symbols). When I create my swf file using flash i can access shapes and symbols using this code. I am trying to get and change the color of a symbols in my swf file.
var flashMovie:Sprite = this.content as Sprite;
for (var i:int = 0; i < flashMovie.numChildren; i++) {
flashMovie.getChildAt(i).name;
flashMovie.getChildAt(i).transform.colorTransform.color;

But when I create my swf file using Illustrator it return nothing. How can can I access the content and change the color of an Illustrator SWF
I'm trying to create a new instance of a MovieClip when the original one has been used. Would sound easy enough. Just use: var
instanceName:ClassName = new ClassName();
the class name/mc in the library im trying to duplicate is MCg1 so
var instanceName:MCg1 = new MCg1(); right?
However, the particular object in the library i'm trying to duplicate has a base class that is an external class file (just to control it's drag drop functionality)... i.e baseclass is not set to the standard flash.display.MovieClip, or whatever the case maybe. So i end out with a: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I want to draw something on an <mx:Image> I have in my .mxml file, but I want to keep my drawing implementation in a separate AS class.
View 4 RepliesI've got a Flex application running on a JBoss server, with dev/QA/production environments. The application needs to coordinate with some other services, also with QA/prod instances. Currently I'm sending the current URL in via javascript values, like this:
index.template.html
AC_FL_RunContent(
"FlashVars", "myhost=" + location.hostname,
etc
index.mxml:
switch (mx.core.Application.application.parameters.myhost) {
case "qa.servername.com":
xmlURL = "http://server.com/qa.xml";
break;
and so on. I'd rather not do that though; I'd rather edit a .properties file in JBoss to identify a particular machine as QA or Production and access that value via Flex.

I'm trying to do something as simple as reference the stage and I just can't figure it out; something that usually takes me seconds has eaten up 2 days of my time.
I have a Main.fla that outputs Main.swf; it contains no script, only library assets. I have a document class set up using Main.as, which itself has 1 trace and code to run the Preloader class, which is held in Preloader.as.
