ActionScript 3.0 :: How Does MXML Relate

Mar 8, 2009

I have been using Flex Builder for a while now, infact since i started coding in AS3 Projects.One of the fundamental issues i have from experience of trying flex, is i dont see how MXML tags and AS3 is related.Can someone try to explain to me from an Actionscript perspective?If i create a PixelBackgroud.as class which extends sprite and draws a random pattern, then how can flex use that class? Does it automatically become <PixelBackground /> ?

ActionScript 3.0 :: How Does Extends Relate To Getter Functions

Jan 21, 2010

Like I understand that if you're assigning something within a class it would have to involve what's extended to this class.So if a class extends MovieClip, would you only Set properties that involve the MovieClip object?Adversely, with Getter functions you could be retrieving anything from XML to volume. So that can't have anything to do with what that class is extending towards right?Is that how the extends relationship works with Get (return) and Set (value) functions?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get The X,Y As They Relate To The Main Stage(_root)?

Apr 12, 2006

Im trying to get the X, Y of a Movie clip (well call it "target_mc").its inside of a parent MC (well call it...."parent_mc")but im trying to get the X,Y as they relate to the main stage(_root).so far the two methods ive used are

Code:
this._x = _root["parent_mc"]._x + _root["parent_mc"]["target_mc"]._x
this._y = _root["parent_mc"]._y + _root["parent_mc"]["target_mc"]._y[code]....
neither worked

it seemed like the first method(the one in the code block) places it at the starting position of the MC i need the location of, but to further complicate it the parent_mc is a rotating clip(Ive got code to make it follow the mouse).how i can place this in a location that is changing whenever the mouse moves

Flash :: Position 2 Movie Clips On The Stage That Relate To Each Other?

Nov 20, 2010

I'm a bit rusty of my trig, so I'm not sure the best way to do this ... I need to position 2 movie clips on the stage that relate to each other they can't be nested ,the registation points are in the center, assume "clip B" is 50 px to the left of "Clip A" as pictured in the diagram to the left , when "clip A" is rotated, I need clip B to follow ( still 50px ) away but with new _x and _y relative to the rotation of "clip A" as in the diagram right.

Javascript :: How Flash Events Relate To DOM Event Model

Apr 4, 2011

I wondered if anyone can provide any information on how flash events relate to the DOM event model.My issue is this:body > div > object.The div has a mousedown event which calls 'preventDefault' on the event object.This shouldn't bear any relation to a click event within the objects swf however in IE9 it prevents the swfs mousedown event from firing..I'm struggling to understand how swf events fit in with DOM (presumably they continue to bubble up from the object element?) and why a click event on a div would affect a childs swf click.

Actionscript 3 :: Make A Flash Shape's (x - Y) Coordinate Relate To Not Its Starting Point But Its Location On The Frame

Alright, so I've been struggling with this one since last night. When I create a new object (a new unit), and draw it to the screen (Flash does all the work there), the point at which it's first placed is considered its origin. That is, getX and getY will return the distance from that point... Why is that? Or how can I stop this?

Actionscript 3 :: Three Way Binding In MXML Custom Component (using Only Mxml)

Jun 22, 2011

I'm trying to do this using only mxml, no <script> tags, although I don't necessarily need a solution that's only mxml. It was more of an educational exercise to see if I could do it all in mxml. I have a custom component that has a slider and textinput and their value/text properties are bound together. I'm surfacing a few properties of the slider in my component so that it can sort of be treated like a slider.

Flex :: Extending Mxml Component With From Another Mxml Component With Visual Child Supported?

May 18, 2011

I've been trying to create a custom mxml component that extends another custom mxml component (i.e.MyMXMLComponent -> BaseMXMLComponent -> Group). I've been reading that trying to add visual children to MyMXMLComponent caused error with Flex 3 but that's no longer the case with Flex 4.

What I want to know is whether this is a supported/fixed/documented feature of Flex 4? or just some undefined behavior in Flex 4 that may get changed with future updates?

if this is supported and documented feature, does anyone have link pointing to adobe document stating it as such?
