trying to find how to assign listener to an object created with this function...
Code:
private function placeBtn(thumb:String, Xthumb:Number, Ythumb:Number, targetHolder:MovieClip, ID:String):void{
var clipHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();

I have the following game:
dev.multimedi8.com
I assign the following event listener at the top of frame 1:
ActionScript Code:
crossHair.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, shoot);
But it doesn't trigger on every MOUSE_DOWN. I mean it should at least get called on every mouse press right?
EDIT: Forgot to mention all the germ movieclips are created inside a holding movieclip:
ActionScript Code:
mc.addChild(germ)
I have three MCs on stage and I want to put them in an array and assign event listener to those MCs. I tried like this but it gives me error[code]...
View 4 RepliesI am having a weird problem with scope/reference. I am using a loop to preload a number of thumbs in one go, I am creating a different listener for each one on the fly and then passing event handlers for each one of them. This should not be difficult using a loop, but somehow I cannot access the the parent object on my listener and therefore I can't do much with my thumbs after they are loaded.Here is the relevant segment of my code. myThumb_mc is a temporary variable that does not exist when the loop finishes, you can copy and paste this code to test it though. It should work to that extent. (you'll need an image1.jpg to be in the same directory)
Code:
var myThumb_mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("myThumb_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
myThumb_mc.clipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
myThumb_mc.clipLoader.loadClip("image1.jpg",myThumb_mc);[code].....
The code above works, but it does not look nice and it cannot be the right way of doing this. Long question short, how can I access the parent of a listener from a listener object? ._parent does not work.
Alright, I've looked online at a bunch of different collision tutorials but they don't explain what I'm looking for. I want object A to hit object B and then execute a function via to a Event listener.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to automatically assign an object to a class during testing project? I know you can do so by assigning in a movie clip's property the identifier but I need to know if I'm say creating a game, and it gives the user the ability to choose a player, I need that player/movie clip that the user chose to be assigned to a specific actionscript class.

which if applied, would have no effect, but would be valid (actually not exactly that matrix, but you get the idea). i want to set the values of the matrix and the object should be affected by those values that i set by myself, no scale rotate or any predefined operations. how can i set my own matrix?

How you can assign a class to an object on stage.[code]...
This would make a new object, but the current object already exists, it just needs to be notified that it's of the type "ClassName" so it can inherit it's properties.I've also tried assigning the "ClassName" in the linkage as either the base path or the class name. But in either situations I get an error saying that the class needs to be unique when I use the same class on multiple objects.
This is a work around question:
lets say I have the following:
onstage:
this.someobject
this.someobject.x
this.someobject.y
is there a way to assign the x or y property
var xORybject;
so that the following is evaluated correctly
this.someobject[this.xORy] == this.someobject.x || this.someobject.y
I have created an object called myObj.
How do I create a class that I can call that will assign properties to myObj such that PHP Code:
myObj = {foo:15, bar:"hello"}
...?
BTW, I do not want to just say
PHP Code:
var myObj:Object = {foo:15, bar:"hello"}
...because in fact I am going to be creating a bunch of objects all having the same properties, and there will be many more such objects.
I am really confused with this tutorial as there is shown how to assign z dimension to the Sprite object. It is never declared, so I assume the z property should be implemented to the Sprite class. But obviously I get an error when I try to build the application does not matter if it is flash or flex app. From my point of knowledge I can not find z property for Sprite in the actionscript, so I do not know how Lee implemented his code to work. Below I put all the code from the tutorial, so you can quickly glimpse at it. How is it possible to assign z dimension to work it, or suggest what kind of class to import or whatever I should do, or know anything about the z dimension in flash player 10.I do not really think z could be in 10-beta and is not in 10 official.

what appens when I add an Event Listener to Object Event?
Following the logic with the display list in AS3, I thought only Classes who inherit flash.display.InteractiveObject could react from events coming from mouses (or keyboard).
I have four buttons named button1, button2, button3 and button4. I want the code to trace the name of the button when the button is clicked. This is just an eample of what I'm doing in my project. The project itself is too convoluted to put up and explain. My problem that needs to be solved is, how do I refer to the button in the Function?
var c:int;
var buttonName:String;
for (c = 1;c < 5;c++) {
buttonNum = "button"+c;
[Code]....
When I say "trace(this)", the code doesn't know what "this" is because I've taken this[buttonNum] out of the loop by having to put it in a Function. How do I call to the object that is in the listener that called the Function?
ActionScript Code:
/* Setup listener for each video/audio cue point ============ */
myListenerObject.cuePoint = function(evt:Object):Void {
if ((evt.info.time == cpTime[n]) || (evt.time == cpTime[n])) {
[Code]....
The code above does not work because of the if/else if statements. What I'm trying to accomplish is that I have a listener object that in one frame listens to an flv playback object, and in another frame listens to an mp3 file.
The listener code for both types are exactly the same, except that the flv listener uses the evt.info.time to check for cue points in the flv and the mp3 uses evt.time to listen for the cue points in the audio. Since I can't combine these with an OR operator, is there any other way to consolidate these two, or do I just need to keep two sets of the same listener code for each to refer to?
Trying to access a listener that I have created in a .as file from within a .fla file. My chapters.as class is as follows:
Code:
// Define Chapters
class Actions.chapters {
// Constructor function that is called from external swf file

how I can access this properly or do I have to define the listener object within the .FLA file?
I have a movie clip being dynamically added to the stage via an AS3 linkage call:
gameOver_mc = new GameOver();
stage.addChild(gameOver_mc);
The movie loads as required.But when the movie has been added I want the user to be able to press spacebar and a function to run.So in the GameOver.as class I wrote the following:
Code:
package
{
import flash.ui.Keyboard;
[code]...
But as soon as the movie clip tries to load I get the error message: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.I would have thought this would work fine. When I trace the statement in the Constructor function is works. Its only when I try to add an event listener that I get the problems. So am I not allowed to add event listeners from a dynamically loaded class?
$("#listView object.modal").click(function(){
// Get the ID of the clicked link:
var link = $(this).closest("h2").attr("title");
[Code]....
This fires a modal (jQuery UI). It it working in FF, Chrome/Safari but not in IE 7/8. Is there something I'm missing here?
Big Picture: We're using a swf to render custom type and there is a link in the rendered (flash) content. We're hoping to catch the link action in the jQuery listener so we don't have to extend our swf have an optional param to return false on link click.
I'm trying to add an event listener inside an object but it doesn't seem to work. other OO languages it makes sense for an object to be able to attach events etc itself rather than have some external action do it.Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Player extends MovieClip {
[CODE]....
This gives an error "1120: Access of undefined property MouseEvent." suggesting that I don't have access to MouseEvent from within the instansiated object.What I can do is create an instance of the class from the Document Class for example and then do the following:
ActionScript Code:
newInstance.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, newInstance.mouseClick);
run event listener through dynamic object call
View 1 RepliesI'm pretty new to AS3, but I have not managed to solve the following problem: basically adding instances of a bitmap on the stage (working), but then adding an event listener and knowing which is which. So for the first part:

I have written a framework that facilitates RPC calls between AS3 and PHP 5 called FlashMOG. I recently got a forum request that has introduced a pretty bizarre question regarding access control. This will be a lot easier to discuss if you have access to the FlashMOG 0.3.1 client source which is here:
[code]...
The basic idea is that I have a FlashMOGService class which has an RPCSocket member that it may share with other FlashMOGService objects. The idea is that you can create two distinct FlashMOGService objects and have them both connect to the same host/port via socket. I use my special RPCSocket class for two reasons:
1) Let developers use one port but separate functionality into two distinct services...a form of multiplexing i guess
2) RPCSocket adds functionality to the standard Socket class that works to serialize and unserialize data and get it where it needs to go. The essence of the problem here is that created a class with a FlashMOGService object as a member and has tried to assign a private method of his class as an event handler to the FlashMOGService object:
[Code]....
My initial thought is that this should be fine because it's all done within the class. However, when I consider the monkey chain that results in this function being called, it seems almost logical that it wouldn't work. The problem is that the browser freezes when a socket message arrives that tries to call the service's client method, _service.client.firstClientMethod. This client firstClientMethod is attempted when data arrives from the server on the Socket (an RPCSocket, actually). The RPCSocket class deserializes the socket data and extracts an array with a service name, a method name, and an array of arguments. It looks into its own private class variable (an array of services using the RPCSocket) and tries to invoke whatever function was assigned thusly:
[Code]....
I'm guessing there's some kind of infinite loop going on to check access control for the various intertwined classes.
