ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing An Array Inside An Object With A String?

Feb 2, 2010

I have an object with an Array of objects inside. Each object has a name property. To scope it directly I would use:

ActionScript Code:
obj._arrayOfObjects[0]._object name; // trace returns the first object's name in the array
if you understand this so far then here is an easy question for you.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Accessing Components Nested Inside A Movie Clip Instantiated At Runtime

Jul 31, 2009

I am having this problem with actionscript 2:

I have a class that instantiates a movieclip from the library, eg: myBar:MovieClip = level0.AttachMovie("debugbar", "debugbar_mc", 999);
 
myBar is an instance variable in the class.

Now the important part - debugbar in the library is a movieclip that contains some components - buttons and textInputs. The problem comes when trying to access these components.

I would have thought that this would work: myBar.input_txt.text = "hello";

in order to set the text of "input_txt", the instance name of a TextInput component on the timeline of the movie clip (frame 1 of a 1 frame mc).

This does not work. Infact, I cannot access any specific "component" properties - they come back undefined. I cannot added event handlers for the component events either.

I can however set and retrieve MovieClip properties for the "input_txt", such as _x. However there is one added strange thing with this too - setting _visible to false doesn't seem to work (however perhaps a component by default overrides this).

I tried casting it to a component, such as:
var temp:TextInput = TextInput(myBar.input_txt);
trace(temp);
 
which gave "temp" as null. Without casting, it gives the path to correctly.

It almost seems like the components are somehow broken when trying to access them this way - or that they cannot be accessed this way?

The thing is, I was able to access all of this before, when the code to do it was placed on the timeline (frame 1, the only frame) of the debugbar itself, where the components were placed at authortime.

I need to have it in a class though, as I need to pass in certain objects that need to be accessed by the mc. I am rather baffled as to why all this doesn't work.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Accessing Hotspot Mcs From Inside Of An Object()?

Jul 5, 2011

I am trying to use a new script that uses XML to dynamically create a menu on the stage. Within the XML, I am establishing a function to use with that button. One button may just link to something on the web while another will simple display/hide a specific movieclip on the stage. I also have another button that I need to use to show any hotspots on the stage. Originally, I had the code on the instance of a static button on the stage and used a loop to get the items on the stage. Now, though, I have this "generic" Object() with a function called showHot. I have been playing around with using _parent, but can't figure out how to get to the items on the stage. All my hotspot movieclips' names start with "hs", so if I can just figure out how to loop through the items on the stage, I can check the names of those items.

Accessing MovieClip Inside Button Object In AS3 (Flash CS4)

Apr 7, 2011

I want to dynamically load the graphic of the button into an mc inside each frame of the button (up and over). Inside each frame I have a movie clip (canvas and canvas_over). The green box is the button object (header_btn):

This is my code:
var hLoader:Loader = new Loader();
hLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, hLoaded);
hLoader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
function hLoaded(event:Event):void {

It would be nice though if as3 allowed for buttons to contain objects.

The Problem is splice doesn't appear to be showing anything in return, it comes up with an error saying: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.What am i doing wrong ? And how would i go with moving my playerObject around the array?

Actionscript 3.0 :: Access Property X Of An Object Inside An Array?

I've created a card (that extends movieclip) in flash and after that I've created an array and pushed some cards inside of it. The name of the mcs is already set, but now, I want to add them to the stage and set their x and y position.

Code: Select allvar test:Array = new Array();
var testMC1:Card = new Card();
var testMC2:Card = new Card();

How can I access the property x of this card? The next code is wrong, of course, but it gives the idea of what I need...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Object Not Showing String Inside When Added To Array

Sep 14, 2010

I have an object which needs to be added to an array, but when it is, it doesn't show the string inside. However, when I alert the exact same object, I get the result I'm looking for.

Here's my code.
newArray.push(obj.responseData.results[i].phoneNumbers[0].number);
alertMe(obj.responseData.results[i].phoneNumbers[0].number);

The first line shows nothing in that location in the array, and the second pops up a phone number, just like I'm after.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Dynamic Nested MC's?

Jul 30, 2009

I'm working on an educational game that interacts with randomly selected characters. The names and attributes are imported from xml. I have a mc called characters that contains each character on a frame tagged with their name. The frame label is the characters name and I am having no problem displaying each character as they are randomly called.

Code:
characters = new Characters();
characters.gotoAndStop(characterName);
characters.y = 350;
gameSprite.addChild(characters);

Each charater is a mc with 2 frames one with mouth closed and one with mouth open. Because the characters are accessed using the variable characterName as the frame tag I can't figure out how to tell the movie in AS3 to gotoAndStop on frame 2 of the character mc. I've tried numerous variations and just can't get it to work.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Accessing A Nested Movieclip?

Sep 1, 2010

This is probably a very simple solution, but I can't seem to find it online. Basically, I have a button that need to change a movieclip's frame in it's parent.So I tried:

ActionScript Code:
_parent.slideshowImages.gotoAndStop(2);

But it's not working! I know I'm getting to the right locaiton because _parent holds a variable, and I can access that just fine. But I for some reason can't access the movieclip at all.

Note: I can't upgrade to AS3 (What I'm used to) as this isn't my file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: [F8] Accessing Nested Nodes In XML

I'm trying to access some information in XML. I got the first few nodes working, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get to the nested nodes. I've tried everything i can think of. I thought it would have to do with nested for loops, but i couldn't get it to work. What am I missing?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Nested Movieclips?

Dec 5, 2009

I have a movie clip (assigned to a class) with several keyframes. Each keyframe consists of another movieclip, which contains an animation and all use the same name. Lastly, several of the animations contain a third movieclip, which is also assigned to a class and also use the same name. I need the first movieclip to speak to the third, unfortunately, it simultaneously tells me that the clips in the second layer (the ones at the keyframes) exist and do not exist. Namely: second layer "does not exist" in that the primary movieclip has only one child: a null. If I add other movieclips to the primary's frames, they also report back as nulls depending on what frame I'm on. I've tested this in several parts of the code, though I suppose it's possible that I managed to pick five equally bad spots. It's just so bizarre I still don't know what to think about it. However, the second layer of named clips are there, but I can only prove it by deliberately breaking the code in hopes of deliberately getting a reference error (by attempting to make the clip private, which isn't allowed given my setup).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Stage Elements From Within Nested MC?
