Well this is strange:
ActionScript Code:
var myObject:Object = {firstName:"Alf", age:34, city:"Oslo"};
for (var prop in myObject) {
trace("myObject."+prop+" = "+myObject[prop]);
}
This will output all the properties of the object, but if I make my own class object it doesnt work at all! Simple.as:

I'm currently implementing an 'interactive map', and I want the mouse cursor to change (from one to, two, to three arrows custom-made arrows), when the user 'mouses over' certain parts of the map. For example, there is currently 4 x3 grid on the map and when the user mouses over to each of the four corners, the cursor will change to three arrows (which have already been designed), and when the cursor mouses over the grid on the 8th grid on the right, the cursor will change to two arrows..... and so on.

View 1 RepliesInside the attached .rar Two seperate objects are made, object A and object B, but they share the same variable (only works with arrays) even though they aren't linked in any way. Any changes made to A is reflected in B, and vise versa.
How would I go about fixing this issue? (SIMPLY, aka I don't want to write a class or whatever, I just want to know if I am doing something wrong, like not writing new or something)
i need to mix two images one photo and a placeholder. The idea is that we see the placeholder except where the palceholder has a particular color, in that case the user sees the photo. Something like chroma key.For this purpose i wrote a Pixel Bender shader that acts as a BlendMode. If the background is in the right color output the pixel image otherwhise output the pixel from the placeholder.
<languageVersion : 1.0;>
kernel Crossfade
< namespace : "mynamesp";
vendor : "Artbits snc";
[code]....
Everything works fine except for the fact that i had multiple placeholder, one over the other and my shader don't check the color of its own placeholder but the color of everything under the photo.Is there a way to force BlendMode to consider only a layer or a specific background color ?Is there a smarter way to obtain the same result ?
I want the stage to react every time some changes are made to certain objects. Is there a way to write custom Event? I could of course modify this object, but I would like to know if there is any more OOP way to do it. And events ARE OOP, ain't they?
View 2 RepliesI have a bit of code that calls a custom class that I made in flash. Basically when you roll over this logo I have a function that makes a new instance of a custom class and calls it to the stage like a little pop-up text when you roll over something. Then when you roll off of it I remove it from the stage. The following code is for the first pop-up text.

I'm attempting to create a template with one simple change to the file output location. I need the .swf file to placed in a subfolder, i.e. "output/filename.swf" Instead of the default "filename.swf"My problem is, if I edit the output file name field in publish settings in any way, the export file name is now locked, meaning if i have used my new template to create 3 fla files, they will all be named the same thing and replace one another in the output folder i've created. (trying to eliminate the need to open the publish settings menu here)I was hoping there was a variable like ${filename} or something i could use, but cannot find something like that.

Essentially what the project consists of is I have random balls appearing on the screen and moving around and I need to make it so that the user is able to draw a circle around the ball (may be more than one) and have that balls dissapear and count the number of balls circled.This project is being done in flash builder 4.5 and is being made for the android platform as part of a senior project.I have been able to randomly create the balls and give them a random movement. I have also been able to figure out how to allow the user to draw on the screen.
What I am trying to figure out is how to make it so that if the user draws a circle around the balls make it so that I know these balls have been circled and make them dissapear and have the number of balls inside the area calculated.I have thought about making the entire background a grid and make it so that I can track somehow the line made by the user and then track the coordinate of the balls then if it is within that area it means that the ball has been circled but I would like something more efficient than that.

I apologize if it is unclear for what I am looking for but a simple description is I am making a simple game where you are able to circle a moving item on screen, then once it is circled the item disappearsand you gain a point.

View 1 RepliesI have a date object and I want to listen to any changes made to it. The changes can be made by either directly assigning another date object
var newDate:Date = new Date(2009,10,9);
date = newDate;
and by using
date.setTime(timeInMilliSeconds)
I tried using BindingUtils.bindsetter:
var myWatcher:ChangeWatcher = BindingUtils.bindSetter(updateDate,date,"time");
private function updateDate(value:Number):void
{
trace(value);
}
but this doesn't seem to work. I wish to know what am I doing wrong or if there is someother way to do this.

I'm made an Item class which extends the Sprite class, the Item class basically has a few checkmarks & labels at the moment.
Then what I try to do is run through a for loop of items and create Item classes that I want to place one after each other on the y-axis, so I'm reading the Item.height property to find the y of the next Item in the list.
The problem is for some reason there is always an extra 75 pixels added to the Sprite height at the bottom, no matter how many checkmarks and labels are in each Item class ( varying the height of the Item class ).
Any idea why this is being added and how it can be removed?I'm having trouble figuring this out, I tried dynamicly calculating and setting the Item.height property but when I do that the Sprite is simply cropped.
I am using the following code to Pause, Fade-in & Play a streaming Mp3 from an external site:[code]The problem is that this file is never-ending and ultimately slows the computer WAY down. I'm assuming this has to do with the cache filling up with the never-ending Mp3 file.Does anyone know a way to periodically dump the Cache or... limit the amount of the file loaded into the Cache? Say 3-5 SecondsI am assuming a "DO NOT CACHE" code won't work as the Mp3 is streaming and requires a certain amount for uninterrupted play.

View 3 RepliesI am building a dynamic menu system with XML. Back in AS2 I would make a movieclip, then attachmovie and duplicate the attached movie. When I did this I could always over write the old data. Now in AS3, it seems to be overlaying or "stacking" on top of one another. So my question is, is there a way to overwite the addChild, or a way to dump the contents of a movieClip so I prepare it for another attachment? Here's a sample of the code I am using.

I want to listen for a custom event dispatched from the document class in a custom subclass. For example, let's say in the document class I have:
ActionScript Code:[code]....
So that the subclass will trace 'Event from document class received' when the 'customEvent' event from the document class is listened by the eventlistener. However, the output is only 'customEvent dispatched', meaning it wasn't heard in the subclass.
Out of good programming practice, I generally check for null displayobjects before trying to access a method or property of said object. Ive noticed that the IDE compiler output will bark at you if you do not check for nulls (while trying to access a null object), but it will continue to run unphased. It also doesnt show any errors in the flash player while trying to run it in a browser. So I guess my question is, what exactly happens when you try to access a null object? from what its showing me it doesn't cause any memory problems, doesn't crash the app, and it only displays an error if I am in the flash ide.
View 6 RepliesThis includes some code and some traced output. I've been looking at this for 2 days and it stupifies me. I'll elaborate: There is a game object, its a dictionary object containing a screen tile with index/name tile_x_y So i can look it up using the x and y coords. The object contains lost of stuff but in this case especially: x, y , width, height, xtile, ytile (self explanatory i assume) & xmove, ymove (-1,0,1 depending on direction.)
So, now these objects move around the screen (yes its just a game) and check if they hit the screen bounds and if they try to move onto tiles that are occupied/non traversable. It goes fine for most objects but sometimes, or for some objects (no clue why and it changes on restart), halfway the boundaries check, the object internal x and y values go ballistic and i end up with a reference error on the dictionary object because tile 280 30 just doesnt exist.
