Flex :: Flash Shared Objects Storage Location Changing Occasionally

Jul 3, 2011

When running a flash application that I run locally i.e., I get to it from a browser but with a file path
file:///C:/Projects/test/bin-debug/Main.html#

Now, most of the time the shared objects are stored in
%APPDATA%MacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjectsXXXX#localWithNet

But occasionally, it reverts and thinks this application is running on localhost
%APPDATA%MacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjectsXXXXlocalhost
Which means all previous saved settings are gone.

How flash decides if the application is infact localhost or localWithNet (local with Network access). Rebooting can sometimes make it revert, but I've also had it stay localhost for a few days then revert.

Flash :: Access Stage From Arbitrary Location?

Sep 2, 2011

Say I've got a utility class in which I would like to access the stage (in order to get the frameRate).

I don't particularly want to force the user to pass in the stage to each method or set a static property on my class before using it.

Is there any way to get ahold of the stage without it being passed in? All I need is the frameRate!

I have drawn colored rods which I have placed in the library and have put one of each on the stage with instance names likeblueRod_mc, etc.I place them around with time-line code like
blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;I have now created an Actionscript class called Problem.I build a new object from Problem which I have called Riddle.But when I put blueRod_mc.x = 300.0 in a method (of Problem),I get the message that blueRod is not accessible.So I triedstage.blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;That did not work either.

Flash :: - Xml - As3 - Can't Get Loaded Image To Attach To The Proper Location On The Stage

I have a sample XML file with two images. If I remove either of the items from the XML, it everything displays fine, but with 2 items in the XML, the first item doesn't show an image, but the second does (maybe the first is being attached in a position behind the second?)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Animate A Movieclip To A Random Location On Stage Every 5 Seconds

Aug 6, 2009

supposing there is a movieclip in stage.. let's say its a circle with an instance name of "theCircle"..

the circle has to move / go to / animate to a random location on stage every 5 seconds... basically, the circle should move to the random location, stop and wait for 5 seconds, then move again to another random location.. again and again...

the code below is untested and incomplete.. but it is what i am trying to do... how i should go about this...

ActionScript Code:
var randomXPosition:int;
var randomYPosition:int;
var positionTimer:Timer;

[Code]....

on the moveCircle function, i can simply set the X and Y of the circle equal to randomXPosition and randomYPosition... but that would just change the location of the circle, not move it.. i am trying to make the circle animate towards that location at a constant speed..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Simple LocalToGlobal - Indicate Its Actual Location On The Stage?

Dec 4, 2010

Ive tried looking in a whole bunch of threads for a solution to this probably common issue but to no avail.I have a bunch of objects of same type on the stage which are generated through code.Inside these objects which are generally at x=300 on the stage.

Code:
this.x+=2.3;
trace(stage1.localToGlobal(new Point(this.x,this.y)), ", ", this.x , " ", this.y);

stage1 is the stage object I pass into my class.The trace output is as follows

(x=2.3, y=0) , 2.3 0

Now im expecting some values in there somewhere to indicate its actual location on the stage, ie, x=300.This isnt happening.Whats the correct syntax i should be using.

IDE :: Showing Objects Beyond Stage

Feb 17, 2011

how would I go about creating a flash application that has the ability of extending beyond its object width and height on a page? I've seen those crazy flash ads which beg you to hover over them only to have it take over 3/4 of the page you are viewing. How are they doing that? Is it a combination of Javascript and Flash? Or, is it actually a really big stage that is somehow hidden in the HTML? Or (better yet) is there a magic way of pushing flash objects beyond the stage and out into the HTML?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Find Objects On Stage

Aug 25, 2009

I'm studying the code for a vertical shooter game that is given in the book "ActionScript Design Patterns 3.0." The author is explaining the factory pattern and so covers just that aspect of the code -- doesn't cover hit testing. I would like to figure out how to do hit testing for this example because it's similar to something I am planning.

The code for the game consists of 12 classes, abstract and concrete creator classes, abstract and concrete product classes and a Main class. These classes instantiate the ship and weapon objects at various points in their execution. I made a separate Collision class and I'm trying to find all the objects on the stage using this Collision class so I can hit test them with each other. Here's my code:

Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

[Code]....

Is there a way to fix this code so I can access objects on the stage? Am I missing a cast somewhere? Or do I need a different approach to find objects on the stage in a multiclass game?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Objects Already On The Stage?

Nov 10, 2009

I'd like to be able to access some objects which are on the stage before compile time (e.g. in my .fla file). I can do this fine from the document class using the names I've assigned to them, but I need to be able to do this from other classes (instantiated at runtime) too.
 
What is the best way to go about this? Can I use the stage variable (this isn't looking likely from what I've read so far) somehow? Or do I need to pass in references to these objects from my document class when I create the instances of the class that needs to access them?
