I've been hurting my brain for 2 days now trying to figure out the following:I have an array called Objects.This array contains 2 fields: dbid (database ID) and children.The children field contains an array with more objects (and so on and so on).
ActionScript Code:
Simple example of Object:Array

I've got a function that loads an XML file, and processes it into an array. Outside the function, if I trace for any of the contents of the array, it comes back undefined. What I've noticed is that the trace command is triggered before the array has been populated, even though the function to populate the array is called prior to the trace command.Here's the code:
Code:
var playListArray = new Array();
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite=true;[code]......
The issue I'm having is that I have a main "wrapper" 100x100 (but it could be any size) - it's just there to hold and display whatever content, swf, gif, etc we may want to throw into it. As long as the loaded content doesn't have 3D animation like rotationY going on, it displays fine. But when it does, the 3D "anchor" properties (like projectionCenter) of the loaded swf inherit those of the main timeline (i.e. 100x100 (main) vs 728x90 (loaded)). If I change the dimension of the main "wrapper" in Flash IDE to match what's coming in - the 3D behaves fine, but I won't know what the dimensions of the content will be until it comes, so I need a way (if there is one) to dynamically alter the main "wrapper" or root display object through AS. Stuff like "this.width = loader.width" or "stage.width = loader.width" or "root.width = loader.width" etc doesn't work. Flex has the hBox and vBox
View 1 RepliesI have some 2D arrays. I would like to add a 3rd dimension. How do I add this 3rd dimension?
I don't know if I'm stating this correctly but what I would like to do is have an array that holds a bunch of [thumb.jpg, number, bigpic.jpg]. This way all the values entries are related. So if I wanted to get any of these values I could use the same key value.
I don't know if this makes sense. Plus, do I get the values of the 3rd dimension by using [i][2] in a for-loop? I know that [i][0] gets the 1st dimension and [i][1] gets the 2nd dimension.
Trying to create and populate a bi dimension array.
[Code]...
The following code showing error
var objectArray:Array=new Array();
for (var i:uint=0; i < 2; i++) {
for (var j:uint=0; j<2; j++) {
[Code]....
can we create multiple dimension array?
something like this
array[1]['name'] = asdf
array[1]['age'] = 22
[Code]....
How can I find out the length of the second dimension in a multidimensional array? this is not working:
[Code]...
var asdf:Array = [ [1,1] ];
trace( asdf.indexOf( [1,1] ) ); // -1
Why can't indexOf() find the [1,1] array?
I can push into an array just fine, but now I have an array created by a for loop. It has 30 numbers in it.
Now I want to go back and add another dimension to each element in the array.
So I might have (1,2,3,4,5,6....)
and I want to go back and add ([1,"Susan"],[2,"Matt"],[3,"Marc"]... I read somewhere that I need to loop it and first make each element and array and then push into arrayName[0].push as a loop, but that doesn't seem to work either.
How do i traverse multidimensional array so i can turn this into value objects :
Code:
<accordion_nav>
<item branch="PATIENT TYPES" level="1" treeID="10.00">[code]......
so each items has a propery of branch, treeID, and level?
I think im missing something really simple here. I'm just trying to sort a multidimensional array.
Code: Select allvar array:Array = new Array();

Images I am loading from XML are associated with the right record on first load but then on refresh they swap places.I am loading XML and creating arrays.Then I pass the array data to objects using loop functions.the AS counts how many books there are in total then and creates the objects and passes informations regarding each book into the individual objects.when I trace the array data just before starting the loop function I get a good consistent read:[code]
View 1 RepliesEDIT::Just realised I could of asked this a lot shorter =/How / Can I use array.push() to make an associative array that keeps its order the way I added the item?Sorry if this is confusing!!
ORIGINAL:So I have this Multidimensional array that stores objects that are sorted into groups.
The array structure looks like this:
[Code]...
So I thought about adding them using the array function push() but how do I do this do its associative?

I'm trying to determine if an object exists in a multidimensional array.I found this code:
Code:
contains = function (input, arrayData) {
for (i=0; i < arrayData.length; i++) {
[code].....
Here is the data:
[Code]...
Here is an example with some of the above data:
[Code]...
I have all of the data combinations, I just cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to output the data
I have an array created by .push method. The entries are like:
myArr=(
{item:"Item 1", type:"type A", date:"09/05/10"},
{item:"Item 2", type:"type A", date:"12/05/10"},
{item:"Item 3", type:"type B", date:"27/04/10"},
[Code]....
I forgot to mention that, i've done it by spliting the date entry to subentries and sort the array according to them and it can be also be done by creating a new array by fetching entries from the prototype.. but i wanted to see if there is a more "proffesional" way to do this.
i do have problem with searching through my multi-dimensional Array to insert newly value to currently existing value..what I have now....
Code:
var someArr:Array = new Array(["apple"],["orange"],["watermelon"]);
so what I wanna do is I able to search the desire valeu 1st and append to existing value eg;
word search = apple
match and I can append new value to this particulars array and my expecting result new array after append new value
Code:
var someArr:Array = new Array(["apple","expensive"],["orange"],["watermelon"]);

i'm still transitioning from as2 to as3, i'm having trouble with parsing XML data to Multi dimensional array, below is the onComplete handler which is succesfully tracing 'event.target.data' but outputs 'A term is undefined and has no properties' when tracing _vein_data[0][0].xPos. I'm guessing there is a easier way to approach it than this attempt

To line up with my multi-dimensional data array, I would like to create and display textfields. I was hoping to do this in a multi-dimensional textArray however flash does not seem to like it and I am getting a #1010 error. Here is the code I have:

var textArray:Array = new Array();
createTextFields();

I am currently poulating a Flash production for a client with XML generated data, simply so that I can give my client a piece of work which they themselves can update easily. The problem comes from the fact that I could have quite a lot of information hanging around in the form of a multi dimensional array structure where the XML data will be placed after parsing.Ideally I would like the ability to create a delimited Multi-dimensional array, which can dynamically update it's size, without me having to declare an array of 32000 cells each time, which could waste system resources to a stupid proportion.I have tried:-
Code:
_global.myArray = new Array();
but it didn't seem to initialise the array unfortunately....

I'm using a multi-dimensional array (openImage[]) to track the open images in my multi-dimensional array (Images[]).
I would like to check and see if an element in a multi-dimensional array exists before I access it because there are rare occurrences where the data in openImage[] is not valid. I keep on getting errors every way I've tried it.[code]...
I have a question regarding the use of mouse clicks events in a multi-dimensional array (or a "2D" array as we refer to them in Java and C++).
Background
I have an array of objects each with a corresponding mouse click event. Each object is stored at a location ranging from [0][0] to [5][8] (hence a 9 x 6 grid) and has the specific column and row number associated with it as well (i.e. tile [2][4] has a row number of 2 and a column number of 4, even though it is on the third row, fifth column). Upon each mouse click, the tile that is selected is stored in a temporary array. The array is cleared if a tile is clicked that does not share a column or row value equal to, minus or plus 1 with the currently targeted tile (i.e. clicking tile [1][1] will clear the array if there aren't any tiles stored that have the row/column number
[0][0], [0][1], [0][2],
[1][0], [1][1], [1][2],
[2][0], [2][1], [2][2]
or any contiguous column/row with another tile stored in the array, meaning that the newly clicked tile only needs to be sharing a border with one of the tiles in the temp array but not necessarily with the last tile stored).
Question
What is a clean, tidy way of programming this in AS3? Here are a couple portions of my code (although the mouse click event isn't finished/working correctly):
[Code]....
I hope this isn't too vague, but I'm stuck on a problem that has put me in an Unfortunate Position. I'm Flash developer getting my feet wet with with AS3 and am trying to build an interior decoration tool for a client. My thinking so far has been: create the basic user interface, get the screen flow down, and then finally use a couple of simple arrays to store user selections and stuff like that.
Naturally my 'couple of simple arrays' is totally inadequate to model the many user decisions that my program has to take into account. So I find myself trying to create an enormous, multi-dimensional array with several layers of nesting and before Panic sets in. Here's an example of my thinking for the 'bedding' component of the application in pseudo ActionScript:
[Code]....
... keep in mind that this is just a fraction of what goes into bedding and there are several other of these kinds of arrays that would go into a room like flooring and walls and funture... all equally complex. And I'll need to frequently access different combinations like, how many options under bedding have no value associated and things like that.
So, I realize I'm out of my league and am going to get hurt on this,My questions are:
1) Could it be that using nested arrays like this actually isn't such a bad thing and I should just stick it out? That would suprise me, but I want to make sure I'm not already on the right path.
2) If not, where do I go from here if I want to do this right?
Off the top of my head I feel like I could maybe make everything class based. So my sheets are a class and beds have instances of sheets and rooms have instances of beds... etc. It think it would be complicated but might be the way to go. Or maybe, I go the XML route and store all of the room options in nested blank XML nodes that a user then populates as they move through the application. These are my thoughts but I'd like to hear what more experienced members of the community say.
I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array();
var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array();
slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.
if i create and swf let say for desktop application and it is full action script without any object in the stage ( movie clip and etcetera is created and placed by action script 3) not even in the library panel ( i mean no manual object that i added to library oanel and linking it to my code by using the linkage ) what would become the width and height of this application?? let just say for example i make a slideshow swf which load it's image by reading a xml file (the url of the image file is in the xml file).i ask this because when i test my swf (stage.width) it return 0.and when i loaded it into another swf i cannot set the loaded swf dimension (i did use event.complete).
