When you click on a movieclip in the menu, it is then copied and added to the container_mc movieclip.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to make the movieclips draggable once they are in the container_mc.
I tried the following as a test but its only working for the existing movieclip, not the new one like I want it to[code]...
I am basically trying to duplicate a movieclip by using a button.. (no probs there).however, i want to drag each movie clip individually.. ( my brain froze)here is my butchered code..// graphic is the mc i wanna drag, n is the textfield that i want to count up.
on (press) {
addmore = "graphic" add n;
duplicateMovieClip("graphic", addmore, n);
[code]......
ive got a text box a user can enter some information, an add_btn whcih will place the text onto an image inside a UILoader.i keep getting this error :
Quote:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at DLS_fla::MainTimeline/onClickadd_btn()
when i hit the add_btn... why has it got no properties
ActionScript Code:
function onClickadd_btn(evt:MouseEvent):void{
//and the work around for removing the old text when new confession is added.
if(newTextBox!=null){

What I want to create is a movie clip, that I can drag, but only on axis, such as up and down, but not left to right. For example, only on an X axis, but not on a Y axis.The code i'm currently using to make the items draggable is:
pc.onPress=function(){
startDrag("pc",true,50,50,550,350);
removeMovieClip("cnt");
[code]....
"pc" is the instance name of the movie clip I want to drag. "cnt" is a line that I've got drawn between the various draggable points I've created.
I've got 6 draggable movie clips that snap to a target - which works fine. If they don't hit the target area they snap back to their starting point- which also works fine.
My problem is that they can all be dragged to the target one after another, but I only want one movieclip to be at the target at any one time.
So,when I start dragging a new clip toward the target I want the movieclip thats already on the target to reset itself to it's starting position, thus being replaced by the incoming clip.
I want this to happen for all the draggable clips.
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {
startDrag(this);
this.beingDragged=true;

I have a row of movieclips that I need to drag horizontally. there could be up to 300 clips. Each clip is 100 px wide. Each clip has different content/text and animations. the viewable area will be the stage.[code]...
how to communicate with those clips specifically to make them draggable and also to change the _rotation with Key.Right, Key.Left.

I've made a draggable menu for a flash site (menu_mc), but the buttons don't work inside the movie clip when I apply startDrag. To remedy the problem, I simply made another movie clip (menubuttons). I now want to more or less attach the two movieclips:
Code:
if (menu_mc.moveTo(x,y)) {
menubuttons.moveTo(menu_mc.x,menu_mc.y)
};
I also tried some pretty iffy statements:
Code:
menubuttons._x = menu_mc._x
That last one works initially, but when I move menu_mc, menubuttons stays put.
I created an animated button and copied this six times. i would like to chane the colour of each individual button, but when i do this it changes the colours of all the buttons. how can i do this so it changes the individual the colour of a single button.i need to know how to do this as also later i want to apply different sounds to each button.

View 5 RepliesI am able to drag a copy of an object and drop it on the canvas, using drag-drop manager functionality in Flex.
The original object remains unchanged and a new copy of the object is created. However, If i further want to drag this copy and position it differently on the canvas, I find that the object is not draggable.
Since this copy is created at runtime, I am not sure how I can achieve to drag it? [code]...
I am developing a word game using flashDevelop . the game is working fine when I compile and run using flashdevelop and it also working fine when I directly open [swf] file from the source [bin] folder. But the problem is when I try to copy and open [swf] file from other than original location its not working. I have also tried to copy the whole bin directory but that also not working. I am using XML file to load in swf file. I am also using flash [swc] file for fl.controls.package.
View 4 RepliesI have a movieclip that effectively functions as a button, which we'll call BtnA. When I click it, another movieclip containing the content (CntntA) fades in (this mc is on another layer). Then when I click another button (BtnB) CntntA fades out and CntntB fades in. I've got all this working fine for now, but the problem I have is that once BtnA is clicked, it is still clickable and it fades CntntA back in even though it is already active. Is there a way to disable BtnA after CntntA has appeared? So u can still see it, but you cant click it? Obviously I'll need to do this with BtnB and any future buttons I add
View 1 RepliesI have twenty movieclips on stage with these names:
g1
g2
g3
g4
....
How can I make invisible with a for loop, like
for (i = 1; i < 20; i++) {
g+i.visible=false;
}
This that not work.
Can I make an array of movieclips, and then make all of them visible? some-thing like:
ActionScript Code:
myArray[1] = new MovieClip();
myArray.visible = true;
[code].....
How can I get my movieclip which has been duplicated to act as a button? Neither of these seem to work:
Code:
"thumbContainer"+nextPicture.onMouseDown = function(){
trace("Clicked")
[code]....
I have several movieclips placed on the timeline that I want to be invisible and not run until the user clicks a button. The movieclips are linked to a class I set up:
Code:
class Hidestop extends MovieClip {
function onLoad() {
[Code]....
The problem is that some, but not all, movieclips show briefly when they load before becoming invisible. I can get around this by starting each movieclip with a blank frame, but there must be a better way.
I have just taken over a Flash website for a friend (like two days ago!) He needs me to add a picture to a movie in his website. He likes how the previous designer has the images fading in and out not a slide show, i 10 layers with actions on each) so I figured I could duplicate/copy an existing layer & paste it into a new one... but here is my problem, when I change out the image on the new layer it also changes the image from the copied layer. What am I doing wrong?
View 1 Replies[URL].. When I test my flash file, within flash it works properly. But when I upload it my content MCs at the bottom of the page are not showing up. Afghanistan content does show up, but the following countries do not.
I may have made a mistake in the method I tried using... I copied the content MCs into a new flash file, changed names and brought them back into the original file for the next country, to save time...or so I thought. Would that throw it off? I will continue to work on it.
I have dynamically attached a number of movieclips inside a another movieclip on the stage, and now I want them to act as buttons, but I can't work out how. They are named as they are created, so I know I can target them, but as to how to assign an onRelease functions to them I have no idea.I don't want to hard code a load of onReleases, as the number of movieclips will change depending on outside data, how I could do this with a loop or something, given that I have an array of their names?
View 4 RepliesI mostly use flash for the animation, so my action script tends to be mostly functional.
I am now however having an issue, i am using a variable called language which I am setting in frame one as "dutch", "english" , "german" etc... Im then using this to set dynamic text as appropriate in each frame as necessary.(and yes i may switch this to case statements )
if (language == "dutch")
{ tcMC.peasantBubble1.peasantSpeech.text= "Bescherm je een schat?"};
My problem is however that one Movieclip does not see the language variable.
Is there anway in CS4 i can direct it to where it is, or define the varibale instead to be global (perhaps id have to change it from a string though)?
Using Adobe Flex Builder Pro stand-alone, how do I filter or exclude some files in my project source folder from being copied into the bin-debug folder during a build? Flex Builder is based on the Eclipse platform IDE, this could be as much of a question about Eclipse as it is Flex Builder.

I just started trying out cs4.
first time trying copy motion as actionscript.
Summary:It works when I directly paste the codes on the first frame of a blank document, with the movieclip on the stage.
BUT, if i put the motion codes in a class file, then strange compiler errors will appear in CS4 [code]...
These errors are shown without LOCATION. (i.e. cannot trace which line produces this error).
I really want to try out "copy motion as as3" in CLASS method.[code]...
For a project, I'm making an interactive side scroller.You move the character with the arrow keys and press the space bar to interact with things.So far, I followed DexNote's tutorial on YouTube.I thought that I would make the interactable objects as buttons, while the mouse focus would be on the character and when you press the space bar it make a mouse click in that area.The trouble I'm having now is that I don't know how to make the space bar trigger the "interactions."
