I have a FLA file that has a AS file linked via the document class.
How do I remove the link from the documnet class and the place an import on the timeline to do the same thing ?
I'm just wondering about the difference between using an external .as file as a Document Class vs importing it via some timeline code like:

I have a scroll file, taken from a tutorial, which is linkedto a class. After having customized my file I did try it and itworks fine. The problem is starting when I try to import this fileto an empty MCL in my website. When I have imported all theelements they do not respond and act like single pieces (es. thescroll bar is detached from the scroller). What can I do?

View 4 RepliesI have a main.swf with a loader that loads an external.swf file. That file is an xml photogallery. The gallery has two other folders lets call them folder1 (contains xml file, image files) folder2 (which has sub folders that contain.as files for the tweens) I need to import these files to the main.swf or is it export these files from the gallery to the main.swf?
View 1 RepliesI have drawn buttons on my stage. They all set to export for as3. I then made a class for buttons
package{

public function Buttons(){

And then I put in my document class ; import Buttons; nothing happens and no errors...
I am dynamically loading external SWFs in a Main Fla in response to clicks on a menu.
The loading code is standard and works fine for all of the SWFs except one. When I try to load it I get the following error: Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
I am certain that the URL to the problem SWF is correct. The SWF itself doesn't load any other SWFs or images. The problem SWF is linked to an external class file and compiled with it. i.e. in the properties panel of the main timeline of the problem SWF's Fla I have entered the path to the external class.
1. there is no problem compiling this SWF with the class (it works fine by itself)2. if I remove the external class from the properties panel and don't use it the resulting SWF imports without a problem into the Main Fla mentioned before So the problem seems to be the fact that the external class is linked in the properties panel. Is this a path problem?
I found myself loading a new XML file every day and so decided to create a small class that will load the xml file and return it.The class is loading the file but when i try to return it to a new xml object in the document class it doesnt load it.I think that it's something to with the return being in a nested function but i tried a few ways and non seems to work.
[DOCUMENT CLASS]
loadXML:LoadXML = new LoadXML();
myXML:XML = new XML(loadXML.loadXMLFile("gallery.xml"));[code].....
Is there a way to link to a class file from the timeline rather than using the Document Class? (I tried using the document class but it messed up because of the nested movie clips and stuff like that... so I need another way)
View 3 RepliesI downloaded a sample flash that contains a class file.When try to run the file get the "1172: Definition be.nascom.flash.graphics:Rippler could not be found." error. Rippler is the name of the file and I think be.nascom.flash.graphics is the authors directory structure. I think the error is because the file is not in the right location that Flash is expecting it to be in to find it.
View 7 RepliesI am dispatching an event from one document class and listening for it via another document class.My code in class A.
Code:
this.dispatchEvent(new MYEvent(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE));
trace("Dispatching APERTURE_DONE");
my code in class B.
Code:
addEventListener(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE, onDoorsOpen,true);
trace("Lisetning for APERTURE_DONE");

My listener is registering before the event is dispatched, based on my output window, however I never get the "Open Doors" trace statement to fire.

I have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.
View 9 RepliesI'm just getting into flash and i would like to know how you run more than one as3 file from the main .fla file?
Is it possible to use more than one document class file?
It seems simple, but it doesn't seem to be working I have 2 as3 files as classes "mainclass.as3 (this is the document class)" and GamePlay.as3
the GamePlay class works flawlessly on it's own, but when i try to create the var to access it ... var gp:GamePlay=new GamePlay(); ... i get the following error.
I have looked at tutorial etc, but i cant get it to work i am currently getting the following error.[code]...
I can't do many simple things in AS3 that take 1 second to do in AS2,
All I want to do is attach a movieclip to the stage via a .as file that ISNT the document class.
So for examples sake lets say I have Main.swf - Main swf file with a movieclip called "PreloaderGUI". Main.as - The document class, this loads Preloader.as. Preloader.as - This preloads the movie and attaches PreloaderGUI.
So I had a working .fla, with a document class package in the same directory. Everything was fine, until moving both to a new directory, now the fla cannot find the document class. WTF?

View 3 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;
[code]....
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 2 flash files, one with an intro and the second that just has a document class file that plays out a snake game. How could i import that document flash file and make it play out on like frame 100 off my other flash file.
View 1 RepliesWhat I'm working on is a navigation bar populated by an XML document. I'm working from an existing navigation bar while I learn, and the existing bar has a menu, and when clicked each button has a sub menu. I'm trying to remove the submenu so that when you click the navigation bar button, you go to the address defined in the XML. So far I've got everything working so that there is no sub menu drop down, and when you click a button, you are taken to a URL defined in the actual flash AS file.
I can't seem to get the AS file to call on the XML file to the get a URL from it though. How do I tell the AS file to call a variable from the XML document? I know I have the correct Node path because it works in a second AS file.
I am trying to use the CSVLib from [URL].. However; when trying to use one of the examples I get an "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addFrameScript."This is what I did.Extracted the files, then moved all FLA, AS and CSV files in the root (where also the COM folder resides). Then added the import statement to the Applicaiton file and defined document class.

View 2 RepliesI've got a linked class, with an external .as file, tied to a movie clip called "Menu" in an encompassing fla. In this actionscript file, I am trying to pull some information from a few things I made with the flash authoring tool. There are a few symbols on stage in the fla that I drew with instance names "greensboro" and "birmingham", and I want to get their x-position inside some functions of the linked class. I've tried returning a value from "greensboro.x" but of course it says the variable greensboro doesn't exist, because I haven't defined it in the class. Surely there is some way of getting that info in a variable of my linked class!
Edit: here is some code to show what I've tried(cutting everything else). This is in the .as file of the linked class:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.URLRequest;[code].....
I am making a game in Flash CS4 using AS3. This is the point. I have a MovieClip called Menu which holds a button with instance name ButPlay. Menu MovieClip is linked to Menu.as script. This is whats inside the Menu.as:

When i run the animation i get the this error: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Menu()
When i try to trace the ButPlay inside the Menu i get null object.
