ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Stage Elements From Within Nested MC?
Apr 3, 2011After quite some time I finally decided to pick up Flash again, this time taking the OOP route. I'm a bit rusty though, so I'm stuck on something pretty basic.Here's my Layout of relevant objects and scripts:
Stage > gunAmmo (TextField)
Stage > player (MC) > pistol (MC)
........ > player.as > pistol.as
As you might've guessed, what I'm trying to do is set the gunAmmo.text property from within my pistol class. I've tried using MovieClip(root).gunAmmo, stage, etc., but neither seems to be working. I sort of get why, but I don't know what the correct syntax is. (And yes, the TF's instance name has been set correctly.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Values From Child Elements?
Jul 9, 2009I have a movieclip, with the instance name SizingBox, on the main timeline. Within that mc, I have a Slider component, with the instance name Sizer. I want to declare an action listener on the main timeline which will listen to changes for Sizer and do something based on the current value of the slider.In AS2 this was really easy, but I cannot seem to figure it out for AS3.
Code:
var X = SizingBox.Sizer.value;
this code gives an error.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Difficulty Accessing JSON Values Of Elements
Aug 25, 2009I am working on a information visualization project that involves visualizing json data from online forums. The problem that I'm having is that I'm not able to access all of the values of elements the json. Here is my Schema:
[{"course": "compsci 101",
"forums": {
"forum": {
"forum_title": "Week 11 - Cable and the Specialization of Television",
"forum_word_count": "1000",
[Code] .....
I tested and the json is valid but when I run it with this code it only is able to pull the last value (Week 2 Discussion 1 - Cable and Broadcast Television).
for (key in tuples) {
trace("forum title: "+ tuples[key].forums.forum.forum_title);
}
So, my question is, why isn't it tracing all of the values for the forum title? and what do I need to change to access those values?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Accessing Authoring Elements Of Component At Runtime

Nov 28, 2007I'm trying to link a clip to a class, and it goes well until I try to access MovieClips or TextFields placed on the stage within that clip from code in the class. My code is below; there is a TextField called output_txt on the stage within this clip.
class Main extends MovieClip{
public function Main() {
//trace("123"); <--if I replace the line below with this, it traces nicely
output_txt.text = "123";
stop();
}

Actionscript 3 :: Accessing GUI-created Elements In A Class Definition File?
Mar 18, 2010I've used the GUI to create a rectangle that I turned into a button symbol (SimpleButton). I then edited the button so that it had 4 different button states and a text layer on top. I then created a class definition file for this object so that I could dynamically change the label text (the text layer) when adding instances of this button to the stage.
I was able to create and link a class file (DynamicButton.as) just fine, but when I try to access the text field that I created on the button, I get the error:
"Access of possibly undefined property btnLabel through a reference with static type com.examples:DynamicButton."
when i couldn't get that to work, I decided I'd try adding the TextField directly within the class definition file, using the following code:
package com.examples
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
[Code].....
The problem is that I can't seem to add the TextField to the SimpleButton, as it's not a display object. So, I tried adding it to the parent of the simple button (and I figured, I'd just place it exactly above the button). But then I get a "null object reference." error.
is there a way to access GUI-created elements from w/i a class definition file? How would I add the TextField to the button using only AS3 inside of a my class definition file?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Elements From Xml?
Sep 18, 2009I'm having a bit of a problem loading in xml into my flash document. Current my file loads in thumbnails and if you click on those thumbnails the full size version of that loads on the screen - you save it - and it writes to the database. If you come back to this application - I want it to load the photos that you saved to the stage last onto the stage again. There are 5 photos that should be loaded - but for some reason only the first one is loading. The xml looks like this:
Code:
<items>
<item id="2" type="body" src="body/body/body_2.png" />

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Swf Under Other Elements?
May 1, 2010I'm working on a site which is loading different swf to a main file. For that i have a script which is calling my six swf from six button. I'm also having a basic sliding animation in actionscript when I change page.
Everything works find but now for this project i want to place 3 element which are going to stay on top of the swf. This is the tricky part for me as i'm a novice to AS3. I searched for few days and i find maybe 2 ways to do this.
the first one would be to upload the external swf to an empty movie clip which would be place under the other elements. So i try to use an addChild(); on the button action but it just duplicate the swf (one on top same as before and one into the movieclip) and the animation is not working within the movieclip.
after i try to place the swf to load on the lowest level with a movieClip(root) but i don't know where to place it within the script to make it work correctly.
This is the script i'm using:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
//Assign CLICK listeners for each menu button
btn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
btn2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked);
