ActionScript 3.0 :: Mystical Movieclip Headache Bug Part 2

Sep 18, 2009

I posted last week about a bug that has been driving me insane. At the time I assumed that it was either a bug in my GUI framework I was working on or a bug in flash. Since then I've ripped all traces of my GUI framework out of the project and am left scratching my head due to the fact that the bug still exists.

The Bug: Creating a movieclip within the event handler for a button is causing all the children movieclips of the movieclip being created to be automatically set to frame 2. I've attached a zip containing my FLA with this post. Hopefully someone can reveal cause of my insanity.

Actionscript 3.0 :: 3d Carousel + Streaming Audio Player = Headache?

May 25, 2010

I started with a XML driven 3d Carousel and a XML driven streaming MP3 player, mixed them both up, and made a mess.I can't seem to be able to modify the mp3 player to be able to select separate 'banks' of songs.I tried one method of loading mulitple XML files, each one being a single song 'bank'. But that didn't work as the previously loaded 'bank' would stay in the memory. (When I clicked the second tape, both the first track of bank1 and the first track of bank2 would play simultaneously.)

Now what I think I need to do, is load in one XML file that contains all the 'banks' wrapped in an <Album> tag like so:

Code: Select all<Album index="tape1" title="LA Tool and Die" artist="LA Tool and Die" imageURL="images/tape1.jpg">
<Tracks>
<Track

[code]....

then when a tape is selected, point the audio player to the selected <album> node.But working that into the working streaming audio player is a bit over my head, as is building a audio streamer from scratch.Included is the file that compiles to the sample with the exception of having the 'multiple XML files' bit taken out.

Professional :: Pause Video And The Audio Continues ... If Play Again It Causes A Major Headache

Apr 4, 2012

I am making my second video, so I'm not too knowledgeable. Anyway, I imported audio into my video and it plays back fine. So I play the video, and pause it to try and synchronize the audio. The video stops, but the audio keeps playing, and it will not stop until the whole thing has played. If I try to start from the beginning again and play the audio to sort of override it, it just overlaps with the original audio, and the resulting noise gives me a headache. I don't know if somehow I can stop the audio a
portion of the way through

Flash :: Capturing A Part Of A Movieclip?

May 10, 2011

I have a movieclip on stage. Its 500x400. It has many children of diffent sizes added to it. How can I capture the area 300x200 of the movieclip from (0,0). Suppose there was a child at (100,100) of width and height 300 then I should be able to see from this child from 100 to 300 and 100 to 200 respectively. The rest of the area is not needed. I should be able to manipulate the captured image later. So I guess I have to capture it as a Bitmap. But how can this thing be done.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Capturing Part Of A MovieClip?

Jan 20, 2006

I just want to know if it is possible in flash to capture, let's say, a frame then save it as an image file( gif or jpeg ) to my disk. I imagine the case like this: I have an image on a single frame with a button beneath it which says "Save Image". When I click the button, the image is captured then saved to my disk as gif or jpeg.

Sep 8, 2009

i have a parent movieclip mcA and i want to add another movieclip mcB (child movieclip) inside mcA such that the extra part of mcB is hidden. The size of movieclip remains same as of mcA

For ex:-

mcA = 300x300
mcB = 400x400

then only 300x300 of mcB movieclip is visible and rest of the part is hidden.

Flash :: Button Inside Movieclip Used As Part Of A Scrollpane?

Feb 13, 2012

I'm a beginner actionscripter, so I hope you will take that into account when replying. The problem I am having is that a client has asked me to place a call to action button inside a textbox that scrolls. My idea was to create a movieclip containing the text and the button, then place that movieclip inside a scroll pane. I've been monkeying around with it all day and have made minimal headway. I'm not even sure of the best way to accomplish this.

If one of you learned actionscripters out there could point me in the right direction, perhaps I can find my own solution. The client wants me to use custom icons for the scrollbars, and as altering a scrollbar component seems like such a PIA, I'm trying to avoid using components.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Drawing A Boundary And Testing It Against Only A Part Of A Movieclip?

Nov 23, 2010

I have a map of isometric buildings that the player walks around. in the image I have 1 and 3 working fine. I find the corner points of the building and test it against the players location and sort out their depths. easy.but 2 and 4 are the trouble makers. the left and right side of the building.because its isometric there is that diagonal line making up the sides.my only idea so far is to draw a line box around the building at test collisions against the "feet" of the player. but to do that I must draw a box and make it invisible but still be testable against only the bottom portion of the player, the players feet.

Flex :: Float Movieclip Over Textarea To Make It Appear Like It's Part Of Text?

May 29, 2009

Take a look at this demo, how do they accomplish the Inline Changes feature? To me it looks like they are floating a movieclip over the textarea. What I can't figure out is how they anchored the movieclip to stay in the correct position. If you type something before the movieclip it moves position along with the text, the movieclips even move to the next line when the text word wraps. Does anyone have an idea?

ActionScript 2.0 :: "gallery" Reading From Array, Next And Previous Button Headache?

Apr 9, 2004

Alright, I'm doing this to make a catalogue better for people on dial-up.Theres two movie clips, one will be hidden at all times, the next image is loaded into the hidden movieclip.The next button is working fine, although the previous is not, the objIndex changes down although that array index is not called in loadMovie();

I plan to switch over to colin moocks' preloader later when I get this working, make it draw/attach a preloader into each movieclip incase the movie has not loaded before the user presses "next".

Code:
var objIndex = -1;
picPath = "";
pics = ['winterrangep1.jpg', 'winterrangep2.jpg', 'winterrangep3.jpg', 'winterrangep4.jpg', 'winterrangep5.jpg', 'winterrangep6.jpg'];
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("holder_mc", 1);

Regex :: If Part Of Substring Is True Then Replace Part Of Substring With Running Var?

Mar 9, 2011

Ok perhaps ive bitten off too much here...I know you are not supposed to parse xml/html to regex but the thing is there just arent many other options.Im using AS3.im parsing the source of textflowlayout text to a different format.

string to parse :

< fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold"> some text < fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontStyle="italic"> some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold" fontStyle="italic"> some text

what i really need is:

< fontname=Verdanabold encoding=unicode> some text < fontname=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialitalic encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialbolditalic encoding=unicode > some text

logically i think of it as taking apart the string into substrings

checking if there are fontWeight or fontStyle in the substring

if there is then appending the font name with the weight or style so so that the font name becomes font NameWeightStyle.then rebuilding the string.The font could be any font with variouse styles or weights..so far:

pattern = /<(.*?)>/gixsm;
var matches:Object = pattern.exec(str);
var finalstring:String = "";[code]...........

i just would like to know how to create an "hitTest" script inside a movieclip that is actually part of that hitTest code?I mean... I have mc A, and mc B. and the current hitTest code im using (that is on the timeline) makes mc A, destroy mc B when collide with it... but there are many mc B on the stage (with the same instance name) so, when mc A collide with one mc B, it destroys ALL mc's B... but i want it to destroy only the mc B that he collides, not all the others... maybe an hitTest script inside a movieclip B would work (somethig like "if MC A hitTest ME = i die" (not all the others)).
