I have created 2 separate arrays. One that contains all of the "options" and the other which contains all of the "products". Since the products change depending on the options, this way I can just update the products array whenever the filtering options get changed.So far, everything is working as expected. I can change the filters whenever I want and tabbing works exactly as expected.The problem arises when I click on one of the products.This brings up an informational popup. When that happens, I loop through the products array and the options array and set tabEnabled to false on all of them so that you can't tab through to items in the background. This works great. When you close the popup, I once again loop through the products and options arrays and set tabEnabled to true, but this is where the weird happens.
What happens is that you can now tab through the options and it goes through them all just fine, but when it gets to the end of the options, where it would normally start tabbing through the products, it skips them and goes back to the beginning of the options. HOWEVER, if you shift-tab from the beginning of the options, it goes to the products and as long as you are shift-tabbing, it will cycle through only the products. If you release shift and tab normally, it will tab through the products and when it reaches the end, jumps over to the options and tabs through those, once again skipping the products unless you are shift-tabbing.
I have traced the tab indexes and they aren't changing. I have no focusManagers implemented in the entire project. All of the various items are added programatically and dynamically at runtime. I'm at a loss here, and haven't been able to find anyone else with a similar problem... Any thoughts? Most of the options items are components (radioButtons and Checkboxes) if that might make a difference.On a side note, it also seems like whenever I set tabEnabled to false, when I set it back to true, I have to set focusRect to true as well. It seems to automatically set focusRect to false when you set tabEnabled to false as well. Is that normal? Seems like those should be independent of each other
I am trying to make a sound crossfading between the loops (an example would be: same as in a "Winamp" media player you toggle the Crossfading function in a Modern Skin and select a duration of it). Say I got a loop of 10 seconds, altho it is not perfect as its cut of the song without a proper editing tool. Any way I could accomplish it by using the ActionScript?
I am trying to create 6 TextFields with a loop which I have done but I can't seem to figure out the right syntax for setting the properties such as font, size, etc. in the loop. Here is my basic code:
var Tiles:Array = new Array();for (var i:Number = 1; i< 7; i++){Titles[i] = new TextField(); Titles[i].TextFormat.size = 17;}addChild(Titles[f]);}
I'm trying to create a grid of hexagons by using nested for loops. I picked up this code trawling the forums but this creates a diamond shaped pattern of hexes rather than neat rows that interlock together. I want to create one row in the first place, increment the x and y placing coords so as the next row is offset as appropriate to lock it into place under row above.
This is the code I'm using, which is clearly not doing the trick.
spacing = 35; spacing2 = 35; for (x = 0; x < 10; x++){
I'm building a quick products display app for my company (basically customers put in certain numeric values and the app recommends a product based on the numbers.) I've done this with if statments and addChild()s
Now if they've gotten one result and they want to try with different values I need to removeChild() the product images from the stage.
So far I have this working by adding the addChild()s to an Array and using a for loop to remove them everytime the calculate button is hit. This works fine until I get to product double ups (some products can work across multiple values) then it errors.
Below is part of the code I've shorthanded some of the parts which are working fine as well as the repeat parts so that it's not just a whole blob of code
creating If loops with multiple-dimensions. What I am trying to do is simple in concept: create "boxes" (square movie clips) surrounding another movie clip (one to the left, to the right, above and below). Essentially what I have so far looks like this:
The problem with this is that as soon as I use the function createmoresquares, the for loop is run again for that second set of squares, but the original for loop to create the original set of squares is forgotten so that I end up with this:
I know this all seems very confusing but the basic mistake I am making should be easy to resolve. I have the same problem creating multiple-dimensional arrays.
for (var s = 0; s<mainSections.length; s++) {//grabbing the fabric types Handblocks,Screenprints,and Wovens for (var i = 0; i<subSection.length; i++) { //grabbing each fabric design of the fabric
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having just one main loop and having a main class control individual objects on your stage, in oppose to having each individual object have its own loop and giving it the responsibilities of doing what ever it has to do on its own. What are consider best practices.
I want to create a tab-enabled popup window in an AS3 Air project. Currently, when I press tab several times, the focus goes through all the components in my popup window and then starts focusing the buttons and TextFields from the components that are behind the popup. I have tried to solve this problem in two ways, but none of them worked. I will explain both of the methods here
I have this array that contains the names of various images I want to load into Flash
var imageArray:Array=["image1","image2","image3","image4","image5","image 6","image7","image8","image9","image10"];
Now I want to create 10 different buttons with each button loading in an image. I know there's a way to do this with a for loop without having to make 10 different buttons and writing 10 different functions. Not sure how to correlate the members imageArray with the generated btns.
I have a fla file that has a hardcoded variable which is used to validate that a user has permission to run the swf.The variable hold the number of days from the start of the year. If the current date is later - the swf will not play.I need to generate mutliple swfs each with a different day-code (possibly 100s). Apart from editing the .fla and publishing each time,is there any other method of doing this. For example, the code being read form a file and built into to the swf when publishing.
My goal is to create multiple objects that fall downwards. The problem now is that the object stays in the left upper corner. I've linked the object to actionscript with the name "object". Can someone help me?
This is my code:
Code: var namer:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("objectHolder", 1); for (i=0; i<=count; i++) { var newName:String = "object"+(count);
I am attempting to use multiple AS3 timers to run a short animation in flash but I'm having a problem with some of the instances running slowly or not being removed when they are supposed to. I found a way to make things work the way I want but in being new to AS3 I believe my runtime issues are due to jumbled code.
I have a problem creating multiple movieclips inside a container mc. The one created later always overwrited the one created immediately before it and ended up with only the last one left in the container mc. Below is the code:
I'm having trouble creating multiple instances of one movieclip. I've got an array set up that loads photos into flash and places them in a grid (sort of). I want those photos to have outlines around them. So, i created an outline. Now, when i try to place it on all of the photos, it will run through them and only apply itself to the latest photo (one instance overwrites the others). How do i make multiples of the outline?
I am not even sure this is possible but I thought I should ask anyway. So I usually have to create several different template ads that have the exact same content but have different stage width and height. To do this I just have 5 flash files that have the exact same code except different stage size and publish them out.I want to make this process faster (if possible) by having only flash file that when it is published, the code will create the 5 templates at once with the different dimensions. Is there such functionality in AS3 that lets me do that?
creating some with the .createEmptyMovieClip() method.you see i have a variable rks and accoding to the amount specified in the rks,i want flash to create that number of movieclips
I'm currently trying to program a flash game using actionscript 3.0 where users would step on insects. Basically, I added multiple instances of insects movieclip and remove them by using hitTest function. When the mouse_mc. hitTestObject(insect), there were times the insect was not removed.
Here are the errors I encountered: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. at flash.display:isplayObjectContainer/swapChildren() at SteppingGame/hitTest() Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at insectmc/onEnterFrameEvent_SF()
Also, is there anyway I could simply my code like creating multiple arrays of movieclip insectmc? Here's my as3 code: package { import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.ui.Mouse; import flash.display.Sprite; [Code] .....
I try to create multiple text fields in a movieclip. However, the one created later always overwrite the one created immediately before it. Below is the code in the first and only frame in the application:
create2TextFields(); function create2TextFields() { this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc",this.getNextHighest Depth());
[Code]....
The code is writen in AS2 and Adobe Flash Professional CS5 and tested with Flash Player 10.
When I ran it in Flash Player 10, I only saw message2 displayed on the stage. When I stepped through the app in Adobe Flash Professional CS5, I found that as soon as message2 text field was created, message1 text field which was being displayed on the stage disppeared.
I have made a movieClip (mcMask) which I can use to mask another movieClip containing a bg image (mcImage). I have given the image movieClip an instance name(bg_mc) and I have given the mask movieClip a class of "Mask" in the "linkage" field. Now, I want to create multiple "Mask" movieClips using AS3 and use these to mask the image movieClip (bg_mc).The problem comes when I want to call the instance names of the "Mask" movieClips and set them to be the .mask value of the image movieClip.Because they are created from a class dynamically they don't have instance names. Is there a way to easily give them all instance names and then call them to use as masks? Or is there another way of calling them without assigning instance names?
Code: //creates Var to create new "Mask" movieClips var timer:Timer = new Timer(100, 999999);
want to simplify coding and wondered if there was a way to write a script that could be used on multiple objects without having to write it to address each object individually. I am building a simple menu where I want the menu link to rise and scale up when the button for it is rolled over and then return to its original position when the mouse rolls off. I know I can write this per button and per item, but wanted to see if there was a way to write it once and then apply the action to everything. EX. My menu consists of 5 items (and respective buttons) home_mc (home_btn), menu_mc, dining_mc, contact_mc, specials_mc.If I write the code
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, homeOver); home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, homeOff); function homeOver(MouseEvent) {
