I need to create an action script function so that when a mc is pressed, it sends a variable that is in it (letter_rdm)to a dynamic text field at the bottom. Heres my code:
function placeALetter(e:Event):void{
var tmp:mcLetter = new mcLetter();
tmp.width = 100;
tmp.height = 100;
[Code]....
The following code, when attached to the MC panTracker_mc works as desired, passing the value of the dynamic text field with a VARIABLE name of s1Pan to s1 sound object, thus controlling the pan.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
s1Pan = Math.round(_root._xmouse/2.5)-100;
_root.s1.setPan(s1Pan);
[Code].....

I'm making a calculator using Flash MX that works the same way as the basic calculator found on windows (not the scientific one). But having the user input a number, store it as a variable, store which function the user wants to perform and clear the text field then store the new input in the same text field as a different variable and multiply or add or divide or subtract the 2 numbers and getting the equals sign to display the answer when clicked is harder than I thought it would be.

On my stage I have a dynamic text field (instance name = lives).
In my actionscript I have created a number variable called livesnum. And then beneath that I'm setting the textfields value to be the livesnum variable but I get the following error:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.
My actionscript is as follows :
var livesnum:Number = 4; //Amount of lives
lives.text = livesnum;
How would I achieve setting the textfield as the numeric value of the variable?

I have a test field that I've created dynamically. If I add text to it by writing: myField.text = "some text" the text appears, but if I add text using a variable I don't see anything. If I trace the text field's text trace("text = " myField.text) I get the right value.

View 3 RepliesThis should be basic enough but I'm having trouble troubleshooting it
var instrument:MovieClip=banjo;
instrument_txt.text="The " + String(instrument)+ " has been selected!";
I wanted this to result in dynamic text field displaying
"The banjo has been selected!" but it results in "The [Object MovieClip] has been selected!".
Is String(var) wrong command to use? The only reason I could think why it's not working is, that the variable has been stated as 'MovieClip' instead of Number or Text. What can be done in the case of MovieClip if this is correct?

I have 10 text fields named "text1", "text2" etc;
I'd like to use a for loop to pulate each one, so that each text filed is populated with whatever i is:
for (var i:Number=1; i<=10;i++) {
"team"+i.text = i;
}
I keep getting errors with regards to how the text filed name is referenced.
What is the correct way to increment the text filed name and reference it?
I've tried:
["team"+i].text = i;
"team"[i].text = i;
but they don't work.

I have a preloader. On one frame of the preloader is the code:
i++
loadtext = i;
emptyMC = "holder"+i
allimages._visible = false;
allimages.createEmptyMovieClip("holder"+i, i);
allimages[emptyMC].loadMovie("weddingsintro"+i+".jpg");
Everything works fine, but the dynamic textfield with the var name loadtext is blank. If i set loadtext = i+"loaded" then it just displays "loaded". I know the variable "i" has a value since the rest of the preloader works.
I have a variable that changes according to the position of a slider. I would like to display the numerical value of this variable inside a dynamic text field (created on the stage during authoring).I tried many approaches, but the one I was sure would work didn't. I referenced the "text" value of the dynamic text field from the frame in which the variable was instantiated and used. This did not work, so I am not sure what to do.[code]
