I have been working on resolving a TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor in Flash CS 4 / AS 3.0 .I decompiled a file for a client because the original developer did not leave the .fla file.... so i am stuck with a bunch of weird syntax and playing guess ...Here is the Error message in its entirety :
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at VidPlayer::UtilMethods$/createTextFormat() at VidPlayer/loaderInit()
I have an image gallery with thumbnails and a previous button and next button. "nextPrevPosition:Number" starts out with the value of 0 and increases or decreases by 1 every-time the previous or next buttons are pressed. The thumbnails assign a value when those are pressed:
Quote:
private var nextPrevPosition:Number = 0; private var currentPort:MovieClip; private var POSITION:Array;
[Code].....
all works fine except when NextPrevPosition reaches the original value 0...and this is when I get the error message. It looks like the line "currentPort = new(POSITION[nextPrevPosition] as Class)(); is when it is happening.
After a couple of hours of looking into a weird 1007 error i give it up. I hope you guys can help me with the Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor error i have.The problem seems the creation of the laughing man icon instance.[URL]..
Im stuck with actionscript error, the error i got:- TypeError: Error #1007:Tried to create an instance in a no constructor. at Away3dScene/initObjects()
I'm getting the following error:TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.at Website()[/Design/The Silver Collective/_classes/Website.as:42]
This is line 42:var top = new top(); package { import flash.display.*;
I'm gettnig the following output on the code below - Its driving me mad trying to find th eproblem..
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. var nc:NetConnection;var ns:NetStream; var nsPlayer:NetStream;var vidPlayer:Video;
I wrote a script to make a random image from an array appear and float up through the stage. The problem is that at some random time in the movie, i get the error: TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/enterFrame() This occurs at random intervals. From that point on, the script stops working. There must be something wrong with the way I generate MCs from the array.[Code]...
first it might be valuable to mention that i have a one document class and a child of that class, which is the one im having problems with. My library objects is added to the stage perfectly, but after i wrote the last code (in bold), i get:
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at Entity/moveE()
I am just trying to explore flash by my own little cognitive thinking..
import flash.events.Event; var slot:Array = new Array(26); var letters:Array = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m ','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x1','y1 ','z1',"hypen"]; var posx:Number = 125.5; var posy:Number = -47; [Code] .....
And the error is pointing in this line of codes: this[getChildByName(letters[rand]+counter)] = new this["mc_"+(letters[rand])];
I found two difference that I feel might be important:
-If I decide to put the variables within a constructor, then I must have an object parameter for any function that wish to alter the variables, even if the code is internal to the class.
-Subclassing would cause the variables to not appear, something that causes problems when the class and any subclasses must have the variables in order to operate properly.
I have a combobox named myComboBox on the stage.my library has pngs with linkages ClownFish, FishWithStar,etc.What i hope to achieve is that when a item is selected in the combobox, my png will show at the stage. but gave me the error:
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at main_fla::MainTimeline/changeHandler() at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunctio n()
So I've been messing around with some code to see if I can get a button to play a random sound from an array by using a function. However, I keep getting the error
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/ClickHandler()
I am new to AS3 and writing classes and keep having a hard time with these error messages I am getting. I have the following AS: public class PrevNextNav { public var back_next_nav:MovieClip; public var next_btn:SimpleButton; public function PrevNextNav() { back_next_nav.next_btn.alpha = .3 } .... etc.
The class works fine, except when I try to set the alpha to 30% in the constructor function, I get this error in the output window. TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at _classes::PrevNextNav() at InteractivePilotDocument() If I comment that line out, all is good. What does this mean?
I am trying to call a custom component but it keeps telling me this:

Starting new thread for this topic as suggested by forum. I have a website which tweens movieclip pages (named home, bio, music, video and contact). Love the effect and trying to keep it. Main timeline contains the main buttons (home_btn, bio_btn, music btn, video_btn, contact_btn). Music page has a XML mp3 player contained in it with button control. Video page has an encoded video with no code.
I need the following:
1 - Music and video to shut off as those pages/movieclips tween off the stage. Gets annoying with them playing especially at the same time
2 - Music player to play correctly. It is not with the new code.
I have the following code. The "Tween Code" is on frame 1 of the main timeline of the movie. The "MP3 code" is on frame 1 of the music movie clip. I am getting the following ERROR message when running my movie. I ran the Debugger as I publish and it points to music.my_channel.stop(); in below code. My thought process on this was that it would reach out to the music movieclip, find my_channel and stop it.
I am not an expert in flash, but i do work with AS and tweak Flash projects , though not having deep expertise in it. Currently i need to revamp a flash website done by one another guy, and the code base given to me, upon execution is throwing the following error."--- TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null objectreference.atNewSite_fla::MainTimeline/__setProp_ContactOutP1_ContactOut_Contents_ 0() at NewSite_fla::MainTimeline/frame1() --"The structure of the project is like, it has theifferent sections split into different movie clips. There is no single main timeline, but click actions on different areas of seperate movie clips will take them between oneanother.All the AS logic of event handling are written inline in FLA , no seperate Document class exists.
Preloader Movie clip is the first one getting loaded. As i understood the error is getting thrown initially itself, and it is not happening due to any Action script logic written inline, because it is throwing error even before hitting the first inline AS code.I am not able to figure Out what exactly it causing the problem, or where to resolve it. I setup the stuff online, for reference if anybody want to take a look at it, and here is the link.You need to have flash debugger turned ON in your browser, if need to see the exception getting triggered.

#1006: value is not a function. at MethodInfo-43() I don't know what the problem is, or where could it be, here is the problem code, but first a brief description: Every 3 seconds 3 enemies will be created with a random position, the enemies can't be appearing on top of the other so I check if they collide with any previously added enemies, if they do I assign other random coordinates and check again until there is no collision (I'm using the collision detection kit CDK for the collisions[URL]..the first 3 enemies appear correctly but afterwards the error appears and the next time the program enters the generation part the enemies begin appearing in ridiculous numbers.
I have strange error which i tried to fix all day but with no result. The application is working fine in debug modus, but after I uploaded it to my server it throws following Error:
Within my movieclip WinLose I'm getting an error for a movieclip on stage called mcRestart. When it's pressed it's suppose to trigger function Restart. But for some reason, it's giving me the: "TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Stage@4f4ff99 to flash.display.MovieClip. at WinLose/frame1()"
stop(); button3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playClick3); function playClick3(Event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(422); }
On frame 422 there is no code at the moment. I keep getting the error TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
