how to animate cells in a grid. An example being [URL] when the cells fly in to form the grid at the beginning randomly. I know how to create a grid and dynamically load content into each cell with XML, I'm just wondering how to achieve the animation at the beginning forming the grid?
View 5 RepliesI have a MovieClip that when the update(); function is called, it checks the cells (on a grid) around it to see if there is an object there. If so it updates it's image to reflect that.
How i'm doing it now is something like 40 if/else/else if statements..

View 2 RepliesI have a grid with 16 cells, and I want to give each cell a different instance name; like for example, boxy1, boxy2, ....boxy16; how do I achieve that ? Here is the code:
var rows:int = 4;var cols:int = 4;for (var py:int = 0; py <rows; py++){ for (var px:int = 0; px <cols; px++) { var box:Box = new Box(); box.x = 30 + box.width * px; box.y = 30 + box.height * py; addChild(box); }}
I have set up a grid class that contains theoretical cells. I have a method collectCells() which accepts a starting point, radians and distance as arguments. I want this method to return an Array containing all the cells that are along a given angle and that are within the specified distance from the starting point, e.g. The easiest way for me to do this is just loop through all the pixels in the given direction and pick cells up as I go, something like:
[Code]....
This is obviously really poor, as the loop will be as long as the distance I specify - extremely slow. I tried something different, creating a nextCell() method which accepts the last collected cell and radians. The method threw a point 25 pixels in the direction specified by radians, collected the resulting cell and then started over from that cell for a given amount of cells.
I didn't really think about this approach clearly enough, and once done realized that I had a problem, being that the actual path I'm testing gets broken each time the next cell is sought, e.g. Where the green dotted line is the desired path, and the blue lines are the paths that make up each nextCell() call because the check is made from the centre of each cell. What is the correct way to efficiently collect the cells in a given direction over a specified distance (pixels)?
I have a 850 by 480 px grid. For every keystroke i am looping through an array to check if input textfield is matching object keyword, and then create cells that cover the whole grid.
But i am not sure how to populate the grid. The range is between 0 and 300, and the user input decides how many cells i have to create.
If the result is 4, i should create a two by two table. If it's 64, i should have a eight by eight table.
I have Flash CS4. I like the way the Vine Pattern can be animated with the Art Deco Tool, but I don't like the vines.The Grid Pattern, however, is good. But... there's no Animate check box as there is with the Vine Pattern.
View 4 RepliesI'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.
View 2 RepliesI need to create a simple multiplication grid where children will fill the grid. Its an empty grid at the begining, when they start the time start as well.Its a grid of 10 x 10. when they enter the last number, the grid should show what they did wrong and the time they spend. It's an idea of how it could work but if anyone has something that looks like this.
View 6 RepliesI want to make a square grid of fixed side length but varying grid number using code.That is, the number of grids should be specified by the user (say 3*3) and after pressing a button, the stage should be broken into 3*3 grids.I don't want any code, just a method on how to do it. I have tried it by using simple loops but the method just fails for no reason I can figure.

I really like the thumbnail gallery for its simplicity and beauty. But I would like to ad or vertical scroller (I'm unable to find it here too, maybe I'm blind, just I'm more at the end of my seeking options) or a make a grid thumbnails, that will show 2 columns of thumbs and 5 pictures in each columns, then under the 2 columns i would like to ad a sort of arrow or button that if my gallery have more then 10 pictures it will go on the next thumbnail list. I'm not looking for any extra fading effects or special movements. Just would love to have a single thumbnail grid on side, with option to have lists of thumbnails by 10 if there is more then 10 pictures or so.

What I want the moviclips to do is to look in the four spaces either side of itself i.e. up, down,left and right.I have managed to pull the grid coordinates out of the grid which enables me to tell the clip which grid space to look at but have been unable to successfully get the code to work.Here is my code:

Is there any way to merge cells (vertically and/or horizontally) in a datagrid? At least, for example, is there a way to show that certain datagridcolumns belong to one group. For example, I'll take three columns: column1, column2, column3. All these three should be grouped to the Category cell with a rowspan of 3 -- a "super header" if you will.

View 5 RepliesBasically an array if fed to callThumbs() which iterates through it and compares the entries with preloaded XML _my_images. If match is found, it's sent to processXML which loads all relevant info and loads a .jpg thumbnail. All this is then fed to createCell which creates a specific cell with position values depending on x_counter and y_counter values (4 cells in a row) and adds the cell into a container _container_mc.
The Problem: This all works fine and looks fine, the problem is that the cells within the container do not display in descending order. They are in random order, probably because some of the .jpg's takes longer to load etc. How do I easily organise the cells within the container in descending order by the XML .id value? Or how do I tell Flash to wait till the thumbnail and data is loaded and the cell created and added?
//Flash (AS3)
function callThumbs(_my_results:Array):void { // selector = 1 for specific items, 2 for search items
var _thumb_url:XML;

I am developing an application and making use of a list component. I have set the List to use a custom cellrenderer.I need the list to have rounded corners but the problem is that where my custom cell corners are transparent I can see a default white cell underneath instead of the background.I found this discussion seemed to be relevant http:[url]......But when I add this function to my cellrenderer class I get compiler error
override public function set data(data:Object):void{
super.data = data;
Set the default skin to be invisible. This is a bit easier than creating a new skin, if your goal is to hide the white background.
this.skin.visible = false;
}

I'm making a Flash game (which is basically a version of the same game), and I've used a tileList for the board populated with movieClip pieces. I would like the pieces to respond to mouseOver, mouseOut, and mouseClick events. From looking at other question/answers, I get the idea I'll need a custom imageCell. Is that the way to go. I was hoping I could get the responses I want by putting the actions into the movieClips themselves as below, but that doesn't seem to work.

I need to merge the cells as shown in the picture:
View 2 Repliesi would like to basically represent a group of cells multiplying and dyeing. I have some data im pulling in, from an xml file and would like this to generate some cells. I have figures that change frequenly, so for example, if the figure increases i would like the cell to multiply and if the figure decreases i would like cells to die off.
If any one point me in the direction of some examples or give me some ideas about the best way to do this i would really appreciate it.
As you can see im not sure if i should be looking at flocking or recursion etc so

I'm using the Spark DataGrid for the first time and finding it generally very usable.There's something I'd like to do with the contents of my grid now that I've drawn it though and I'm a bit stuck as how to proceed.I'd like to make a function that runs through each cell of a certain column in the DataGrid, that checks each value against an Array of predefined values; if it finds a match, it should then highlight the cell as conflicting, by changing its colour.I know you can access a particular cell's item renderer, by using the getItemRendererAt() function, and passing the column and row indices. But I can't see how I would, for example, loop through the values in each column
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to code the snap to grid functionality. The dragged object should snap to the grid if the distance between the object bounds and a grid line is less than 5px. I found a way to do it if the object's rotation is 0 but it doesn't work if I rotate the object. I need a different approach. Can you point me into the right direction with the algorythm or any source code?
