I am following video by Buck Defore on Creating a simple application. I compile the ActionScript by hitting Control Enter. List and button come up but the text in the List does not appear.
I am trying to add an item to a list and have text display and have a different hidden value when i access selected items. I also need to do this with a loop.
Currently i am trying to add a label and set the labels id to my value. But the list just shows the ID and not the text.
var theLabel:Label = new Label(); theLabel.id = "123"; theLabel.text = "test"; lstLayerList_array.addItem(theLabel);
I'm building a multiplayer game which when connecting to the server, the server sends back a list of available rooms (each room has MaxPlayers,MinRank,TableId,TableName,Password) so everytime I recieve these 5 strings, I create an instance of Mxml UI Component I have created and fill it with the relevant details. In the main.MXML i've added an AS3 script variable to hold the GameInstances object i've created when rcvd data back from the server: private var gameInstances:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(); GameInstance.mxml is a component that has UI components in it and AS3 script to set some data. When rcving data from the server in main.mxml :
I am currently trying to learn how to use MySQL, PHP/XML, and Flash together. What I have so far is a list box that loads the MySQL table "subject" through the following code: PHP File:
[Code]...
This code works exactly how I want it to but what I now want to do is have each list item in the list (when clicked) show another list component that will display the corresponding product items from the MySQL "items" table. I was thinking of creating a new flash file for each set of items and then have the subject list display the SWF files but I want to be able to add new subjects without having to go back into flash and do more coding.
I have an object that is instantiated, then placed into a property within a singleton (single instance) object. When a button is clicked an event is dispatched carrying a payload that references the display object that is held within the Singleton. When the event is heard, my view object adds the object to the display list e.g. addChild().The Item shows. Now If I hit another button an event is dispatched, and a new item is added to the display list via the method above and is seen. The 1st object is removed from the display list Here is my problem. When I click the button to load the 1st Object the above process is executed again but the object does not show.
I can run trace statements from the object that is supposed to be visible and they run fine. I even do a check to see if the visible property is set to true, and it is, but not object is on my screen. Code for this process.
//custom event carries the name of the page aka display object. this is a string dispatchEvent(new MenuEvent(MenuEvent.CHANGE_VIEW_STATE, event.payload)); //When the event is heard, the following condinial is run
To show the complete list of available colors, one has to click the color box of ColorPicker control.How can the component be modified to forcefully always shown the colors list without any interaction from the user?
When I do the above on a List component, the hand button is shown and the whole component loses it's interactivity (Hand cursor is shown even on scrollbars).
So how can I show the hand cursor only when rolling over the list items?

I have an (empty) ArrayCollection that I wrap with a ListCollectionView. Then I add a series of items to the ArrayCollection, but these are not showing up in the view.
public var transactions : ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(); public var filteredTransactions : ListCollectionView = new ListCollectionView(transactions);
transactions contains 150 items, filteredTransactions contains none. I originally thought it was the filter I was applying, but even when I remove the filter, I still get no items in the filtered list.
Do I need to add the items to the view as well as the underlying collection (this would seem to defeat the purpose of using a view though...)?
I have a situation where I have a List showing a queue of Upload Objects:
[Code]...
I would like to create three different views of the List: One showing All uploads in the queue Another showing only the Upload items with Upload.type == "Update" and another showing only the items with Upload.type == "Create". Another example of this would be on an email inbox, where we could filter "All, unread, or read". I realise I could just create three different lists, one for each view of the list (maybe I'm just being picky) but I was wondering: Is there is any easy way to conditionally select the items to display from a DataProvider based on a parameter (for example type =="Upload") so I don't have to juggle three separate ArrayCollections about?
In a nutshell, I'm trying to create a dynamic text box in which text show up for one XML node but not for another, so I have some XML nodes that have info in them and others that don't. This seems like it would be a realatively easy thing to do, but I've been working on figuring out how to do so for days with no avail. I'm working on a template for my portfolio gallery at: [URL] I've linked pdfs to just some of the images in my modified xml slideshow from the tutorial using the following code from this forum:
I am using a dynamic text field to show html formatted text from .txt files. I have set the html property both in the properties panel and in AS, and it mostly works. All html formatting show up just fine, except for when "&" is used. Flash CS3 documentation indicates that & is supported, so.? All text after the & does not appear: the only text loaded is that that comes before it. I am using CS3, AS2, publishing in Flash Player 9. Sorry if this problem has been addressed elsewhere, but I've had no luck with my searches.

I'm trying to show a question from a list of 10 question at random that also has a timer set for 2 secs. After the 2 secs are up, another question is selected from an array. Below is my code. Is there sometime I'm missing or forgot to add? I keep getting the error 1120: Access of undefined property changword.
PHP Code:
//Randominzes Arrayvar randomizedwords: Array = new Array;var num:int = new int;var i:int = new int;for (i=0; i<10; i++) {while (words[num]== ""){num = Math.ceil(Math.random()*10);}randomizedwords.push(words[num]);

I dowloaded and played with the following scroller on this site... [URL] I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text. If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link. Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
I can't get my text to show in a text field created at runtime within a movieclip on _root. I use a trace statement and it loads into the Output box but is not visible in the textField area..there are no masks in the movieClip.
My function for creating it...
// Call the function to create textField printBtn.onRelease = function() { makeTxtBox("text/print.txt");
I'm new in actionscript and I'm learning how to show text.Now I'm using a TextField to create text and trying to style this with a stylesheet but isn't there another way for showing a simple text?
I'm trying to implement an 'add text to list' feature on an interactive map I'm working on. Here is the run down on how it is supposed to work:
-User selects dot on the map.-A speech bubble gets brought up in the corner of the map application with the address and a picture. (These speech bubbles are movieclips from the Library that are loaded on to the stage when the user selects the dots) -This is where the user has the option to select a CheckBox inside the speech bubble movieclip, which will then update a list inside a movieclip (named 'backpack') which is offstage, but on the main timeline.
Here is an example of the code I am trying to work with: I have gotten it to work, but not when dealing with unloaded movieclips and what not.

I have a SWF file that is the first frame of the movie and it's only purpose is to load in another SWF and show text corresponding to the progress of download completion. When I test the movie (Simulate Download) it just simulates without showing my text with percentage complete. The only way I can get it to show, is if I add a button to click to make it show. How can I get it, so that when someone opens the movie, it will start the download process, show the percentage, and then upon completion, start the UILoader movie?[code]...
I have recently made the transition from AS2 to AS3 and having worked out how to input text to be shown in another frame on the timeline, I would now like to input text in one swf file to be shown in a different swf file. I have searched the web for answers but cannot find what I am looking for.
