ActionScript 3.0 :: Shorten The Length Of "e.target.name"?
Apr 18, 2011
shorten the length of a target name? As you can see in the code below I have added "_snd" to "e.target.name".Let's say "e.target.name" equals "square_1" so the code below returns "square_1_snd", when the square is clicked on.What I want to know is how do I get "square_snd" to return? I would think if you can do (e.target.name + "_snd") then you could do (e.target.name - "_1" + "_snd"), to get just (square_snd), but it doesn't work.
PHP Code:
var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName(e.target.name + "_snd") as Class;
var mySound = new ClassReference();
mySound();

I'm sure .split() and .join() is what I need to use but can someone show how to use it in the code below?

var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName(e.target.name + "_snd") as Class; var mySound = new ClassReference(); mySound();

Let's say I have array foo and a positive integer y, where foo.length > y.I want to remove elements from foo so that foo.length becomes y (or very close to it).Also, I need to preserve the first and last element of foo. The indices of the removed elements must be spaced apart as equally as possible. Foo can be sliced, or it can be used to create a new array.
Example: if foo = [a,b,c,d,e,f,g,1,2,3,4,5] and y = 6, then trimmedfoo could be [a,c,e,g,2,4,5] or maybe [a,c,e,2,4,5], but not [a,c,e,g,2,4] because the last element of foo is missing.

Is there any way to determine if a (anonymous) function has defined the ...(rest) parameter in ActionScript 3? I know there's the function.length property, but it only counts the explicitly defined arguments.

How can I shorten this if else statement which just simply counts up? I know there's gotta be a way. I tried a for loop in the middle of it but I couldn't get the syntax right.Basically, it compares a date range that is in an array and then loads the correct banner by date from an xml file. It's part of a scheduled banner system controlled my one xml file. It has to have that else fallback at the end.[code]

I'm using Fl for the first time and I'm trying to create a slideshow. Everything was going fine until I realized I had spaced out the different image timelines too far to the right. Now that I've moved them all leftward I have these blank ends that make the slideshow end with a long empty nothing. How do I cut those timelines off to eliminate that dead time?

So if you press and hold a button, it does the function once, then waits 0.5 of a second or so then repeats the action quickly. How do I remove the 0.5 of a second wait?

I am trying to use the class Sound of actionscript.My code is really basic :
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest("mysound.mp3"));
trace( new String(snd.length));
snd.play();
The audio is playing very well but in my trace, I get 0 instead of the length in milliseconds of the Sound.

qi have a movieclip which is added to the stage:
var profileholder:profileHolder=new profileHolder ;
inside of profileholder is another movieclip(infoBtn) that acts as a button.when the mouse is over profileholder i want to do something with infoBtn like:
//profOver is the over state of profileholder
function profOver(e:Event) {
e.target.infoBtn.alpha=1;
}
this doesn't work and brings up this error:ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property infoBtn not found on flash.display.Loader and there is no default value.
at main_fla::MainTimeline/profOver()
i also tried:
function profOver(e:Event) {
var item:profileHolder=e.target as profileHolder;
item.infoBtn.alpha=1;
}
and get this error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have an 11 minute video (.MOV) that I want to convert to an FLV. The file is about 29GB. I first tried to convert it using the CS3 Video Encoder but only the first 5:00 were converted. I tried this a few times with different settings but got the same results. Then I switched to Cleaner but again, only about 5:00 was converted. The length is not exactly the same but close enough for me to think that there might be a 5:00 limit to how long an FLV can be. Or is there a limit to the size of MOV the encoding process will handle?

I have 10 dynamic text fields inside a movieclip, which are populated via an XML file.However, the xml file sometimes has less than 10 items. It never has more than 10. This results in the following error, which is normal. I need the code to count the amount of items in the XML file and then create a for-each loop. I can visualize it, but I don't know how to write it.Basically what I need the code below transformed in to is this... (notice the #'s)

Each line in the dynamic textbox has 15 characters, and yet you can notice the difference in the length(between each line).
I want to make the length of each line look same if they have same number of charaters.

I am trying to find out what the max length is for a string because since as3 doesnt provide any methods for removing characters from a string by changing the initial string itself, i am going to have to stick to re-initializing.I did a little test to see how long it would take for my program to break using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
+[code]..............
The program crashed at a string length of about 500 million.
EDIT:however before it crashed,it performed the incrementations with reasonable performance.
EDIT EDIT: which is strange since my ram still had over 2 gig the program didnt use

I am using as2 to stream some mp3s. At the moment I have an attribute within the xml for giving me the length.I guess the length for the mp3s is buried in the mmp3 file somewhere. If I load the files in totally first, then I can get at the info (ID3 is it?) however, this doesn't work for streaming them . Or rather, I can't make it work! (I have found posts which suggest making an estimate if you know how much has downloaded in so many seconds and you know the length etc etc - but this is exactly that - an estimate!)So my question is how do I get the length of an mp3 clip that I am going to stream?
