I'm trying to duplicate custom MovieClip instances from the library in a document class.Here is my code:
package { import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.display.Stage; import flash.events.*; import flash.net.*; import com.greensock.*; import com.greensock.easing.*; import
[code]......
Im Have a function which is called after n ms and in this function I have code to change a movieclip to visible. I have 10 different movieclips with instances named n1, n2, n3 etc So everytime I call this function I want the next movieclip made visible.
So the code I'v been trying to use is this -
ActionScript Code:
function startNoFX(eventArgs:TimerEvent){
i++;
n+i.visible = true;// where i will corespon to the number giving n1, n2 etc
}
Im sure I'v seen something similar like this done before, I know I could write code for each individual Movieclip but I want to keep it tight.
Is there any method to looping through instances of an object that are present on the stage/(or in a given container)?For the moment, I am creating a dice program (which allows the user to generate different dice) and I want to be able to roll all the dice at the click of a button.Right now the dice are added to a dynamic list, but I wanted to be able to loop through the "Dice" class instances on the stage so I didn't have to keep track of instance names or removing/adding/updating an array of the instances.
View 2 RepliesIn AS2 - it was possible to declare a for in loop to trace out all of a movieclip's child instances like this:
Code: Select allfor(item in my_mc){
trace(item);
}

I've created a movie clip and placed it in the library. I've given it a class name via the properties panel in the library. Every time I drag it to stage I want to make sure its alpha is set to 0. If I drag 300 of those clips to stage, is there a way to reference the class name I gave it in order to automatically set the alpha value as soon as they're dragged into the stage?
View 2 RepliesI would like to load movie clips from the library to the stage.How can I load them with some code on them? I mean load them already with onClipEvents on them, as if I added them myself to the stage..
View 4 Replies1. I've got a Main Document class, that loads external swf each with its own document class (they are pages and pieces of the site).
2. The Main class makes use of some movieclip simply instantiated from the GUI library. It all goes fine.
3. The external swf have references to the Main class, and here start problems: when I compile them, I get an error for every library mclip used by Main. See the attachment. A simple trace(Main) is enough to start getting all that errors.
A partial solution is to uncheck Strict Mode in publish settings
How do you tell flash to stop Looping a stream sound that is imported from the library via Linkage method into AS3? I understand the idea of soundChannel that control the sound.
PHP Code:
block_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterframe);
function enterframe(event:Event):void{
if(block_mc.hitTestObject(circle_mc)){
myChannel= mySound.play();
}else{
myChannel.stop();
The above is a drag and drop situation, so when the block_mc is no longer hitting the circle_mc, the sound echoes or loops multiple times before coming to a stop. Any clue how to rectify this. How do you use onSoundComplete in AS3.
I am working om a navigation that should change/swap some instances clip to other ones from the library.[code]...
View 2 RepliesBasically, I have made a new FLA file, and in it's library I have created two symbols. Both symbols have their own class .as file.The first symbol is a movie called GridBox, and it's class has a package that uses lines to draw a shape, namely, a diagonal box tile.The second symbol is a movie called MainGrid, and it has a class that loads the movie GridBox from the library, in to its self.All my code works fine, the thing is, I would like to load more than one instance of the same movie clip, at a series of different locations, and im lost.Here is the code:
Actionscript Code:
package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class MainGrid extends MovieClip private var myMovieClip:MovieClip;

hmm how do I describe what I'm trying to do.. well here it is: In my flash library I have a series of movieclip with names like clip00, clip01, clip02 they are set to export for actionscript as the same name.
Now in my as file I'm importing a xml file that has the names of the clips which to place on the stage. Now if it were just a regular case I would do

I hope I am somewhat clear, please let me know if I can explain further. My project is really complex and I tried simplify it here. Please help or suggest alternative method.
why this sort of, but doesn't work?I'm just creating a group of buttons using imported pictures without having anything in the library.Here's the code I'm using:
[AS]clipArray = [];
posArray = [];
for (var k = 0; k<3; k++) {

I am trying to add instances of the same library item on stage with tweening. Each one will "appear" on stage with delay. I have this code so far:

I have several instances of a movieclip which I placed on stage dynamically out of the library. Inside these movieclips I have a textfield. Is there a way that I can change the text of each instance independently?
Code:
var backing1:mcBacking = new mcBacking ;
backing1.x = 94;

Say I've got something like this:
Code:
var parcher0:_parcher0 = new _parcher0();
_parcher0 is a Symbol in the Library with the Class definition _parcher0
I want to addChild this Symbol to an MC on the stage like this:
Code:
this.pccard0.sprite_.addChild(parcher0)
All good! Except I want to do the same thing, the same way, with this.pccard1.sprite_, and several more. When I do so, parcher0 only shows up on the final, most recently assigned addChild().
Is it forbidden to add a Symbol in this way in more than one place, and if so how do I get around it without creating a raft of arbitrary duplicates?
I am creating multiple bitmaps within a loop, and placing them inside their own MovieClip. I then have another MovieClip in the Library which I am calling and putting inside the MovieClip generated for the bitmap. Alas I cannot get multiple instances to work of the MovieClip from the Library. I think it must be my syntax in the following code..
Code:
for(i=0;i<10;i++){
this['bmp'+i] = new BitmapData(etc,etc)
this['box'+i] = new Bitmap( this['bmp'+i] );

Is it possible to create one or several instances of a movieclip from the library with variable names
my1_mc
my2 _mc
.........
my5_mc
so that I can make a function that will use the name of any of these movieclips.
the idea is to create a loop to that displays 16 cards face down in two rows and eight columns using either a "for" loop or "while" loop, execute 16 times once for each clip.use new to dynamically create card instances based on the Movie Clip symbol in the library.use a modulo operator to operate the x position of each clip use Math.floor to operate the y position of each clip set dynamic text value of the card clip to show appropriate card number add card to the display list if using the iteration variable ("while" loop).this is what i am using and i get one card (the stack of 16) in the bottom left hand corner with a 16 trace statements of "instance 2"
//create variable for number of columns
var numberOfColumns=8;
// requirement 1

The issue I am running across is this: I encoded and embedded a movie clip to act as the background. There are other animations that can and will loop, as the movie resets itself. But there are some elements that I only want to run once and not repeat once the embedded movie loops (link introductions, where objects fly in and transition into the button). How can I set the one time animations to fire just once, while keeping the embedded animation on a loop?

View 1 RepliesI am working in two different applications, one to be compiled for desktop use (AIR) and one to be compiled for the web. They are part of the same project and use the same visual components, but they are completely different apps. When a visual component is changed in one application then it should also change in the other one. Is this a good situation to use a shared library fla? I am new to the concept of shared libraries and I am considering the options.
On one had I would not have to update 2 applications everytime I change something, on the other, I would always have to recompile the library folder when I do the smallest changes to a component.
it is said [URL]You can download the JSON library as part of the core ActionScript 3 library.but when clicking on the link it doesn't work
View 1 RepliesHow can we import images using AS3 code so that when they are imported once will remain in the library forever..
View 3 RepliesI've got a simple question. Suppose some simple lib written on c. Did I understood correctly that alchemy compiles it AS3 before compiling it to swf. If so, will the lib be slower or faster in comparison with the same lib written on AS3.
View 2 RepliesI am making a flash app where I want to have a user defined viewport like the stage in the flash IDE which the user can use to define objects that have a starting postition somerwhere off or on the stage and an ending position either or on or off the stage with the object then tweening between the two points. My question is this: I want the user to be able to define a curved path for the object to tween along. Is there a library of code that I can use to define curved paths for the app?
Ideally I would like something similar to the functionality available in Flash, so a bezier curve sort of path that is subdivided into handles that can be dragged to define the path of the tween. If there isn't an existing library, then do you know of the functions that I would need to define (mathematical equations related to drawing curves etc)?
In my child swf I am using the sound from library with "attachSound". I also use the play/pause button controls of this sound alongwith the other animation.Now when I load this into my main swf file with "loadMovie", It plays fine but no sound. I found that this is due to no sound linkage in my main file library.I want to share my child swf's library with main file's library.
View 3 RepliesAs one would expect, Classes within my RSL can access the classes and methods of the embedded swcs. In other words, classes in my library can for instance call import org.alivepdf.Print and then call AlivePDF's Print.print() method. But it there any way for my project to also use those third-party classes and methods, by "tunnelling through" my RSL??? Even though my project is using my RSL, when I try to type out org.alivepdf.Print it cannot be found.(Obviously I can make a manager class in the library to "pass through" specific commands to the embedded swcs; I'm looking for something a little more generic and all-encompassing here).
View 0 RepliesLibrary symbol "Card" is linked to class "Card" which extends "MovieClip". Library symbol "Card" contains a card background image.Library symbol "Ace" is linked to class "Ace", which extends class "Card". Library symbol "Ace" contains a TextField with a big letter "A".So we have Ace extends Card which extends MovieClip. Ace therefore extends MovieClip, but does not DIRECTLY extend MovieClip.When I drop an instance of Ace on the stage and compile the clip, all that shows up is the big letter A. However, I expected the background image from Card to be included, since Ace extends Card, and the Card symbol contains the background.It seems like Flash ignores symbol content unless it belongs to the top-level class being instantiated.I think it's LAME that one symbol can't extend another. The IDE could easily draw Card as a non-editable background while I'm editing Ace which extends it, and it should instantiate Card's content and then Ace's content when an Ace is instantiated.

View 5 RepliesI'm a newbie at Flash...and have a main movie that I would like to load external movies into..for ease of modification of the different areas vice having one large swf.I'm using the loadMovieNum command to load the external swf's just fine.

When they are loaded into the main movie...they loop.I've placed a "stop();" command at both the frame in the main movie...and also on the line directly after the loadMovideNum line.
