Flex :: External SWF Variable Updates Global Variable In Main Timeline?

Feb 8, 2010

I have 2 movie clips, one being loaded into a container MC via "loadMovie();"In the main movie there is a variable with no value, in the external movie there are 5 frames, each with a value to update the variable in the main movie.

IE: if on frame 1, global value = 1 / if on frame 2, global value = 2 / etc etc I'm familiar with passing variables INTO an external swf, but am stumped on how to do it the reverse way.

AS3 :: Xml : Declare A Global Variable?

Feb 28, 2012

I'm trying to get a value from a function which is a URLLoader COMPLETE event but even with declaring variables outside of the function will not allow me to get the value out. I'm stuck.It seems that the Asynchronous nature of Flash makes it impossible to get a value out: e.g. this works:

// Initialise a URLLoader to get XML data from XML file
var myFPBLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myFPBLoader.load(new URLRequest("flightPlannerBoard.xml"));

ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Value To Global Variable

Aug 11, 2009

I have a movieclip on the stage, and in that clip I have a button that is supposed to turn a global variable from true to false, but the compile tells me:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property root through a reference with static type Class.

When I use this code:
Code:
function closeMSN(event:MouseEvent):void{
this.visible = false
Stage.MSNOpen = false
}

I know how to reference the movieclip itself by this, but how do I change the value of a variable on the main stage, from inside the movie clip?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Global Variable Within Function?

Aug 24, 2009

I'm having an issue with a global variable. I'm trying to give it a value within a function and it isn't working.The variable is imageList. It's an XML List. I'm making it global so I can use it anywhere in my project. I suppose if someone has a better idea to avoid the global variable, I'm up for that too. But for now, it seems like the way to go.
 
Here's my .as file:
package
{
public class MyGlobal
{

[code]....
 
It's giving me the same same Error #1009 as above. It seems like a scope problem, but why? Shouldn't it work since it's a global variable?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Global Variable Not Targeting?

Jan 8, 2010

I am trying to set up a global variable. On the root of my timeline, I have this;

_global.floorVar = "0";
trace(floorVar);
 
which seems to trace fine to say 0.
 
Then, inside of a movie clip on the main timeline, I have a button function:
 
floor1.onRelease = function() { _global.floorVar = "1"; trace(_global.floorVar) _root.gotoAndStop(2);};
if (_global.floorVar == 1) { trace("it works");
}
 
It traces as 1 once I press the button, but the if statement doesn't trace "it works" is my global variable set up wrong?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Set A Global Variable To A New Value When Clicked?

Nov 4, 2003

I have a button in a movie that I want to set a global variable to a new value when clicked. I want it to access a parameter of a movie clip that this same button loads onto the movie for the new global variable value. I have the final line under this button's onrelease script with something like this:

globalvariable1 = movieclip.parameter; Everything is on level 0 and I've tried prefixing everything with _root. but it didn't make a difference, the global variable still wasn't changed. I'm a newbie so don't laugh if this is a really dumb question!

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Use Global Variable Declaration

Feb 24, 2003

I am trying to use the global variable declaration. Up to know I've been using the x coordinate of a movie clip to pass variables between different movies, and I thought it was time to learn properly! Just to get it to work, I am trying a flash file with two movies in the root. One movie defines a glabal variable on load;
_global.numb = 6;

And then I am trying to just get the other to trace it on enter frame, so the code attached to the other movie (on enterframe) is...
trace(numb);
(And I tried trace(_global.numb) as well, but I was under the impression that you only had to define it as being a property once.). All that happens when I run the movie is nothing is traced.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Hanging The Value Of A Global Variable?

Mar 17, 2006

I'm having a problem changing the value of a global variable.

I'm using the xml photogallery thats available on Kirupa. I have 2 movies on the main timeline: the galley movieclip and a navigation movie clip. I want the buttons in the navigation clip to change the global varable 'section' and this to be passed to the galley xml load function. So far i have this for the button:

Code:
gallery1button.onRelease = function(){
_root.nav.select(0);
_global.section= "gallery1";
};

I am using php to deliver the xml data dynamically to flash so I only have one xml file for several galley section. the AS looks like this:

Code:
xmlData.load("photos_xml.php?section="+_global.section);

It doesnt seem to be working though.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Displaying Global Variable On Stage

Nov 9, 2009

I've got a Global variable here in my flash project, which is stated like this,
_global.swfloaded = "home";

This variable then changes throughout the project, depending on what buttons are pushed. One example of the change is when a button labelled Classic is clicked, taking the user to the Classic page, the variable is changed like this -
swfloaded = "classic";

I then have a dynamic text field with the instance name of 'output' on the stage, which I want to display the variable, the code I've used for that is -
output.text = swfloaded;

The problem is the 'output' field doesn't update at all, no matter what is clicked. How I can quickly and easily get the field to update when the global variable itself is changed.

How can I put a variable into a string like this, so the variable is actually the variable and not the strict text?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Modify A Global Variable Within A Function?

Sep 24, 2009

I've currently got this script (see below). What I'm trying to do is make it so I can load several images from a loop. I've played with a few different things, but I'm not completely understanding how the listener works as it relates to the loader. It seems when I try and add a second image, it only enters the onComplete function 1 time, therefor i only get one Image loaded. As a side note, I've also been trying to dynamically change the x and y position, but I'm not sure how to modify a global variable from within that function, or better yet, pass in the arguements during the eventListener call to onComplete.[code].....
