I have a Debug class I've written, and I'd like to include a static trace() method in there, unfortunately I have no idea how to then access global / top level trace as effectively I've blocked it with the local static scope.[code]

View 1 RepliesI want to make a movieclip of a fly (yes, the insect) (named "flue" in norwegian) follow my mousepointer around the stage, or on top of image, either by following (which I imagine will be quite advanced) or hovering beneath the mousepointer, and would prefer it not to be necessary holding the mousebutton down, as this might be uncomfortable for some timeI've tried:
flue.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, movingFly);
function movingFly (evt:MouseEvent){ flue.x = flue.mouseX+225; flue.y = flue.mouseY+220; }

I need to process this chain using one LoadXML method and one urlLoader object:
ResourceLoader.Instance.LoadXML("Config.xml"); ResourceLoader.Instance.LoadXML("GraphicsSet.xml");
Loader starts loading after first frameFunc iteration (why?) I want it to start immediatly.(optional)
And it starts loading only "GraphicsSet.xml"

Is it possible in actionscript 3.0 to play chain of sounds (i.e. several mp3s)?Or should I manually start playing first sound, wait for SOUND_COMPLETE event, then start second sound and so on?
View 1 RepliesI don't think "Chain" is the right word here. But this is my problem: I have a que of 1000 items that need to be downloaded. I use a loader with an event: Event.COMPLETE calls a function. This function creates a loader with an event which on Event.COMPLETE calls that function again ... etc. This has never been an issue. I never even knew it meant that it would all be stacked up in memory.On iOS this is proving to be an issue. At a certain maximum, it just tells me I've reached the limit. So at 500 I insert a Timer so that I can start calling these functions from "level 0 " again.

"you should create a fla, drag an flvplayback component to the stage, create an array of your flvs, initialize an index at zero, assign the flv to start playing your first flv and increment the index in a function that executes when an flv complete and play that array element until all are played. you'll publish your html and swf from that fla." And he gave me a code sample which is below... modified to show my "instance" name as FlvChainand my flv file names... vid1.flv, vid2.flv, and vid3.flv...

I draw a designed chain in the middle of my stage (the width of designed chain is exactly the same of my stage width). I want this designed chain to be moved continuously (From right to left) as long as the .swf file is playing.
I am using Actionscript 3. The designed chain movie name is Chain_mc.
Lets say I have the following inheritance hierarchy:
Code:
Select allpackage {
public class ClassA {
protected function foo():void {
// do something
}}} package {
public class ClassB extends ClassA {
[Code] .....
Now this is all well and good, as the call to ClassC.foo() will propogate through the inheritance chain; C > B > A. But what if I want ClassC.foo() to call foo() that is in ClassA and bypass the method call in ClassB? I have tried the following:
* Cast the method to the super-class type I want to execute, but this does not work as intended.
Code: Select all...
override protected function foo():void {
// do something related to Class C
// call ClassA.foo
ClassA(this).foo();
}
I am using E4X to bind some values from xml in flex 3.There is a problem when xml tag's (or attribute's) name has special character in it: having xml content
var xml:XML = <tag>
<special-name att="val" />
</tag>
special-name could not be accessed using xml.special-name.@att because it is interpreted as subtraction, on the other hand using square bracket notation xml['special-name'].@att breaks binding chain.
Having a few problems with what I thought was a simple if statement. Here is the code:
[Code]...
I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.
if (variable == 1){
//code
//Execute this code.
} else if (variable == 2) {
//code

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.
The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
why this code won't work

I'm sure you can put if statements inside other if statements, seriously I can't figure it out
I need to write an if statement inside an if-else statement. But no matter how I write it it keeps giving me a syntax error.The syntax error is "1083: syntax error: else is unexpected".[code]No matter how or where I place the braces, it keeps giving me errors.

}
to which I want it to GENERATE THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Code:
}else if(baskets[i].used == false){
baskets[i].used = true;
drawButton(i);
}
the problem is obviously that the compiler reads this code rather than understanding I'm trying to regenerate the code within the for loop...does that make sense :S? So basically I need as3 to read the code between the for statement as if it is going to echo that out later. Is this even possible?
i'm currently working on packaging air application to iPhone with ADT (air 2.7). i get the key.p12 and .mobileprovision file in the IOS provisionning portal and i did this operation from a MacOS (keychain software). When i run the adt command, i get the following error : "could not retreive certificate chain from keystore". I notice a curious thing in the Provisioning Portal. In Certificates section, the name which appears in the list is different than the name i have entered in keychain. For information, i have a professionnal account and not create by me.
View 1 RepliesWe want to "chain" multiple FLV video's on the same web page. We can combine them in my video editor but the resulting file is over 30 minutes long. But, I'm hopeful that we can do this using code in the web page so...
1 - We convert each AVI video to FLV video and then "publish" it locally to get the associated files.
2 - Then combine the HTML as necessary to have one video play right after the other.
Can I just... - copy the javascript AC_FL_RunContent code and change the 'name' and 'movie to be the name of the next video. - and then do the same thing for the object code?
or is there a shorter or more easy way to do this?
Finally, is this the best forum for Flash FLV questions?
PS - I know some will want to know why we want to chain short videos instead of just making one long video but the explination is long and will bog down the discussion.
Its pretty simple what im trying to achieve.I have a MC on Stage, which im trying to tween to different X coordinates.I've set up four TweenLite.to sequences, however for some weird reason only one is being triggered - what am I doing wrong?
TweenLite.to(slider.mc_slider,1,{x:_returnXPos(95), ease:menuEasing});
TweenLite.to(slider.mc_slider,1,{delay: 1, x:_returnXPos(35), ease:menuEasing});

View 2 RepliesI have made a script, and now has come the point when I need to use removechild. Whenever I try this I get an error. After looking at the problem, I think I need to learn more about scope and packages. I think if I put everything in the correct scope, I will be able to use the removechild command. I tried to make all my vars public, so that removechild would work, however I got an error that anything public needs to be in a package. I tried to add the package part to my script, but got the error that packages cant be nested. I tried some other things and still no luck, just more errors.
So, if anyone could point me to a tutorial, or recommend a book or something, that will help teach me about scope and packages, Or if you are feeling patient and generous, and you think you could explain this problem to a 5 year old, please explain it to me the way you would to said 5 year old. If you maybe think you can help me out on the script, it can be found here: [URL]
