I'm just trying to add the mc's from the array into a column but don't know how to gain any control over them since right now, they're just all overlayed on top of eachother .
Code:
var myArray:Array=["mc1","mc2","mc3","mc4","mc5"];
for (var i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
var classRef:Class=getDefinitionByName(myArray[i]) as Class;
addChild(new classRef());
}

I have the minWidth set on all of the DataGridColumns and the width set on one of them. If I simply maximize/minimize the display (in browser or stand-alone flash player) of the application, the columns scale up and down nicely. But if you grab the edge of the application and drag it to make it bigger, only one column grows really big. When you drag the size down again, the one column remains big, but all of the other columns get squished way down.

View 1 RepliesI have an array with names referencing movieclips, how do I add them so that I can control them in a function? I want to control each one seperately.

Is there anyway where I can pass the Array values (not the array collection values) to the Bar charts or column charts using flex 3.5...
here is the thing i want:::
I have array values like this,,
array1 = [23, 49, 40, 239, 20, 80, 39,49,120, 24, 31,41];
and i want to show these values on the Yaxis and months on Xaxis....
I have two Qns,
1) how can I pass this array to Bar chart or column chart.
2) how do I need to show months on Xaxis. beacuse I'm asking this regarding, I have kept a filters that even if we want to see some months or a particular months or perticalar span of months... there on Xaxis it need to change the months dynamically depending on the filters..... (for ex, on Xaxis the values should be (Jan, Apr, Jun,Oct) if i select the 3 months period filter....)
I have written a logic to collect the values of those particular months into an array, but not understading how to pass this array to Bar chart,, beacuse there I don't know what Xfield and Yfield to be given....
Is there a simple equivalent to what I used to do in AS2 to add a bunch of new objects to the stage and throw them into an array so they can easily be referenced? I'm finding this more difficult than it used to be.
Old code:
ActionScript Code:
mc_array = new Array();
for(i=0;i<5;i++){
[code]....
so i have an array containing many instances. let's say movieclips.
and i have another array which contains numbers..in this case those numbers represent selected indices that i've somehow chosen!
var manydots:Array = new Array ();
for (var i=0; i<10; i++)
{
var newDot:dot = new dot ;
manydots.push(newDot);
}
var indices:Array = [0,1,5,8,4]
i want to use AddChild to add those movieclips into my scene, but not all of them, only selected indices contained in my 2nd array

I'm familiar with AS2 and just getting started with AS3. I found a submenu fla I would like to use, and I have everything set up, just not sure how to attach movies from the library when someone clicks a navigation button.In AS2 I would have made an empty mc and used attachMovie when the button is released.I've looked at some of the addChild questions and tutorials here, but since I'm working with pre-written code for a submenu, I'm not sure about how to modify what I've read to work in that code.Here's the code that sets up the submenu, the last function (navigate) is where I'm not sure how to instruct flash to load an mc when one of the buttons (from the var subButton:Array) is clicked. The MCs in the library correspond to the array entries ie: s.home has a library item mcHome, s.web has library item mcWeb that would load when they click that button. var s = this.services.subBar //create a variable to shorten the path to the buttons in the sub barvar subButtons:Array = new Array(s.home, s.it, s.web, s.graphic, s.contact); // create an array with all the buttons in the sub bar
for (var i:int = 0; i< subButtons.length; i++) // create a for loop to add the CLICK event listener to all the buttons in the sub bar at once

I have an array of a custom class. The class includes 3 movieclips that all share the same position. I have 5 items in the array, and in the document constructor I fill them as such:
ActionScript Code:
glassArray[0] = new glasses(spot, beam1, glasses2, "index/nav/aboutus", new Point(156, 400));(different string and point for each of the 5 items)
Here's the glasses constructor:
ActionScript Code:
public class glasses extends MovieClip{ //I am the Constructor.
public var spot:MovieClip;
public var beam:MovieClip;
public var glass:MovieClip;
protected var target:String;
[Code] .....
It then goes on to fill each of those mclips with properties based on the point received. How to addchild from the class, I've got a simple for loop in the document constructor that adds them all in. Everything works, except what I'm seeing is that as each item in the array is added in, it overwrites the previous items' properties. In effect, I can create 5 items and give them each a different position, but when I go to addChild I see that all of them have taken on the position of the 5th one.!
I am creating a container. When I press a button outside the container it adds a movieclip. The movieclip is the width of the container but only a fraction of the height.
I need to know how to get it so every time I press the button it adds the movieclip after the last one, almost like appending a list. Does anyone know how I would do this?Do I use an array or does flash have some sort of table feature?
I want to create a grid of movieclips using an array. But every movieclip added needs some sort of unique idenifier so i can access each individual movieclip.
The grid is 6 movieclips on the Y and variable on the X(that doesnt really matter to be honest)
I have managed to create an Array that displays 6 movieclips on the Y using this [code]...
now i tried creating another class and storing the 6 tickets i made in this class in another movieclip and then using the same method in the other class (i called it Ticket_Batch) i created another row of 6 movieclips. although this kind of worked visually i could no longer access each individual ticket.
my question is: how do i create a 6 x 36(or any other multiple of 6) grid of my movieclips in the same class using an array (or 2 arrays) and giving each movieclip an instance name that i can access and use?
I'm using addChild(new nmonster()) to populate an on stage MC from my Library.

Why won't the MC display a child without using his stage?
I'm trying to resolve an issue that reared it's ugly head yesterday.Frame one of main timeline I have the following code:
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[code]....
The newMC doesn't show up.If I add 'parent.' in front of the addChild then it appears.mc_LibItem has a base class of "flash.display.MovieClip" and is exporting for ActionScript and on frame one.For grins I created a new .fla and began messing around with the same addChild idea and it worked.
somewhat understood the basics of adding and removing children, however, I am facing another problem. After using the removeChild Function, I can't seem to add another child.For example:
ActionScript Code:
var attachedMC = new (getDefinitionByName("Content1") as Class)()
Page.addChild(attachedMC);
[code].....
I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);
This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
[code]....
What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?
