If you have a function that accepts a parameter of Point type, how do you assign a default value?
PHP Code:
setPosition(position:Point =(0,0)){
}
I tried (0,0), (x:0, y:0) {x:0, y:0} and none worked... anyone know the correct way?
I'm trying to assign values to my array. Here is what I have so far.

I am new top actionscript that is why I am trying to learn AS3 instead of the AS2 etc.anyway I am trying to create a number pad in flash (like a calculator but wothout the add, subtract etc) so that when I press a number its displays the number in the flash movie. I nearly have it but it only displays one number at any one moment but i need to be able to add upto 5 digits in the display, so that later on in the project I can validate this field to make the input is correct.here is the code that I have made but remember this is my first AS3 flash program so go easy on me
stop();
display.maxChars = 5;
// start of the array

[code]will this represent possible performace increase instead of writing like so:[code]
View 1 RepliesSo I'm coding a maze in Flash using ActionScript 2.0. I'm using a 2D array and with that I will give each point a value, either 1 or 2. I then plan to use modulo and an if else statement to pull a brick movie clip from my library. Here's what I've coded so far with the 2D array. This is my first time using this array and I'm unsure wwether I have coded this correctly. how do I use this array now to assign the values of 0 and 1?

I am new to action script , I am using Flash CS3-pro
I wanted to assign a value to a text box- dynamic :so I create a dynamic text box with instance name : value_text
when I assign the value frameRate to the text box [code]...
I am getting the following error message.
" 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type flash.text:TextField."
I am using a Field Container to enter a new Contact information, and I would like to populate some of the fields with values.
I can do this for normal fields like Phone and LastName, but ti does not work for lookup fields like ReportsTo and Account.
This is th code I am using:-
var acc:DynamicEntity = new itemClass("Contact");
acc.Phone="8888";
acc.LastName="Nieddu Srl"
acc.ReportsTo ="0012000000RsJYb"
acc.Account="test"
_createFieldContainer.render(acc)
Is there any way to populate a lookup field with a default value when the field container is called?
How can I set default values for the parameters of a function in AS2? I am trying the common way but it doesn't work...
Code:
private function myFunction (param1:Number = 3,
param2:String = "a string",
param3:Boolean = false, etc ....):Void
{

}
xml values are stored in 'arr' array collection. depending on the length of the array stored, the below described components are created and assign those values to relevant components dynamically. For Example:

I am creating a flash money game in which you have to drag coins onto an area to add upto a certain amount and then you click a button to see if you are correct.
I'm really confused on how to assign values to each coin, a value to the area you are dragging the coins onto and how to add these up when they enter the area. Then once the button is clicked for it to check that the value matches that of the value you are adding up the coins to.
I thought the higher the depth number the closer to the viewer it was? I have created a movie which pulls back info from a database, on the original movie, once all the data was loaded, I created the required number of dynamic text boxes on the _root and everything worked perfectly. I then decided that I would need to display other information on other movie clips. So I decided to turn the movie into a movie clip, so that I could create other movie clips and load these as needed. I created a new blank movie, attached a blank movieclip (depth 0) as a container for the movie clips that will hold the different data.
I then used attachMovie(depth 1) to attach the original movieclip, which holds the database info. I then changed the original movie, so that it would create the text boxes in this movie clip(depth 3), so that when I decided to load another movie, I don't have to clear up text boxes on the root. When I run the movie, I get the background image for the data movie clip, but I don't see the text. I used trace to make sure that the text boxes were being created and the text values were assigned and they are. So why can't i see the text?
I have a dobut in assign a value to a particular location in an 3-dimensional array during runtime..for example i want to enter value in aBoxes[1][2] on runtime.
View 3 Replieswould anyone be able to help explain whether it is possible to change the default save as to a CS5, rather than going to file-save as.
View 2 RepliesI got Adobe Creative Suite 5.5, and all the projects in company are made in 5.0. And i can't simply save by ctrl+s because Flash (thats concrete program i am asking about) want to save in 5.5. So every time i have to push file-> save as-> change from 5.5 to 5.0. I was trying to find somewhere, where to change it, but i didnt manage to.

View 1 Replieshow to set default property values for objects that are being created in a loop.
In the example below, these propeties are the same for each object created in the loop: titleTextField.selectable, titleTextField.wordWrap, titleTextField.x
If you pull these properties out of the loop, they are null because the TextField objects have not been created, but it seems silly to have to set them each time.
var titleTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
titleTextFormat.size = 10;
titleTextFormat.font = "Arial";

I've run into an extremely odd problem. I'll give a code example to start. This is the superclass Building.
Code:
public var allowsEnemyMovement:Boolean = true;
public var information:String = "";
public var buildingName:String ="";
[Code]...
Now here's the odd part. Only SOME of the variables defined in the superclass do this. the variable information, buildingName and health all will take the default value from the super class. But the variable defenseValue will take its value from Factory's constructor. What am I doing wrong here? I would like to keep default values in the superclass so that I don't end up with null pointer errors later just in case.
I'm importing an external image, but by default the anchor point (coordinates 0,0) for the movieclip it loads into is the top left,this is obviously an issue if I want to rotate, as I need coordinates (0,0) to be the centre of the image, not the top left?
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

View 1 RepliesGoal: load XML data (it parses automatically), parse through the XML tree and assign the values to an array of my choosing for access later in the movie. Problem: I can load the XML data, but the only time I can access the XML functions, i.e. XML.firstChild, or XML.getChildNodes(), is when I am within an XML.onLoad function.

I have an xml with an xml-schema. The xml-schema defines an abstract complex type with 2 optional attributes that have default values. Then I have several complex types that extend the base one. And finally nodes of the types defined.So I load the xml and when I parse each node, the optional attributes are not present at all.I've tried fooling around with the namespaces, even[code]...
No luck. Something similar was being experienced by this guy on codingforums, but that was like 5 years ago. Same is happening to me with firefox 3.0.11 - the xml is shown without the default attributes.For now I'm setting the default values in code, but isn't there a way to make them available from the xml-schema?[code]...

I'm working on an accordion component and I was thinking that it'd be cool if I could write a very basic one and then set it up so that it would be possible to pass in any kind of container class and child class so long as they subclassed a particular parent or implemented an interface (haven't really gotten that far yet).
What I've noticed though is that I can't setup a default class for my constructor parameter. For example I'd like to do this:
Code:
public function DropDownList(containerClass:Class = ContainerSprite, childClass:Class = ChildSprite)
However it gives me the following error:
1047: Parameter initializer unknown or is not a compile-time constant.
