ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Properties Of All Mcs Loaded Using For Loop?
Mar 22, 2010I am running a for loop to bring in movie clips from an array, and I have a couple buttons that I want to affect the properties of all of the mcs. The buttons (labelsOff_btn, labelsOn_btn, increaseSize_btn, decreaseSize_btn) are only affecting the second-to-last item on the list, although the drag functions targeting the same mcs (thIcon) are working for everything. Code is pasted below:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change The Properties Of Objects Stored In An Array Using A For Loop?
Mar 30, 2012I have a little bit of code that makes a nifty kaleidoscope effect, but I would like to take it one step further by having each star in the kaleidoscope gradually shift color as it expands outwards. Right now, I create randomly colored "star" movieclips by drawing 6 different triangles within the movieclip, and then add those individual "star" movieclips to a "stars" array.
What I'd like to do is use a "for...in" loop to grab the .color property of each of the "star" movieclips and change it slightly (using colorTransform?) at each ENTER_FRAME. How can I go in and access the star.color property (or is it star.transform.colorTransform?) of each of the movieclip objects that are now stored in my "stars" array?
Would it be:
Code:
for (var i in stars){stars[i].transform.colorTransform = myColorTransform;
}OR
for (var i in stars){stars[i].star.transform.colorTransform = myColorTransform;
}

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Use Local Instance Variables Vs Attach New Properties To The Instance Object?
Mar 14, 2006I am wrapping my brain around OOP in AS2. I am making two posts on two different subjects. My question here is: when should I use local instance variables, and when should I attach new properties to the instance object? (Feel free to correct my terminology.) Let's say I have a class for a scrolling background, which scrolls when I mouse over its edge. I want to put these values somewhere:
1) How wide is the border in which a mouseOver makes it scroll? This is basically a semi-constant I set it up once and keep it the same, unless the user changes it in an options menu to make the border wider or narrower. Call this scrollBorderWidth.
2) How fast is the background scrolling now? I want to track this so I can smoothly change the scroll speed over several frames. This is often changed. Call this scrollSpeed.
It seems I have two ways I can store and access these values and darned if I know which is better practice. METHOD A: Make them local variables in the class, so the scrolling background instance has them as local vars. I set them up thusly:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Set Properties - Get Properties - Change An Mc Name Dynamically?
Sep 14, 2005Just been playing around with the tutorials, on the Set properties/Get properties. Everything is all cool, except the "instance name" aspect. I dnt really understand that too well. Is it possible to change an Mc Name dynamically? If you look at my FLA when you hit the top left red button you will get a trace of the mcName as "square". Now if you input a new mc Name on the right hand side, you will see it change on the left hand side. But i want to know why it doesnt remain as the new mc Name, it still goes back to square.

Jan 30, 2012I am using this code to iterate through the contents of a movieclip which contains instances of "alien2" - my alien. I have each alien in a movieclip called squadron1. They all have their own layer and follow a motion path to recreate the attack sequence in Galaga. I can add action script to them by right clicking on them, but when I do this test below I can't call any MovieClip methods on them. It is my intention to add a function to each one via code to make it detect bullets, look for the player etc, but at the moment all I can do is add the code to each one individually on the stage.
Code:
var target;
for(var item in _root){
if(_root[item] instanceof MovieClip ){
target = _root[item];

ActionScript 3.0 :: Properties Of Instance Of Specific Class
Jan 29, 2009I'm having a little trouble with the properties of an instance of a specific class. Here's and example of the code I am using:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
public dynamic class Circle1 extends MovieClip {
private var _root:Object;
[Code] .....
This is in the class code for Circle1. Now here is the error that is being displayed int he Output Box when I try to run the file:
Code:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at Circle1/eFrame()
Here's the code that creates the two class instances as children on the Main Time Line:
Code:
if (spaceDown) {
var newCircle1:Circle1=new Circle1();
addChild(newCircle1);
} if (enterDown) {
var newCircle2:Circle2=new Circle2();
addChild(newCircle2);
}
EnterDown is a defined variable for the key press of Enter, and spaceDown is a defined variable for the key press of Space.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Instance With Custom Properties?
Oct 14, 2009Through searching the various forums I have found that Loaders are not dynamic and hence you can not apply custom properties to each instance of them. I miss the old way (as2 way of attachingMovieClip) that you load dynamic content, at least you can apply custom properties, and you can always reference them for each object.What I'm trying to do is load a group of Images via XML. Each one of those images have a set of information that is associated with them (name, description, etc). I have the images loading in and positioning just fine, however when trying to have a tooltip show the name on Mouse Over, I'm not able to achieve this.
In short. I want to be able to store information for each item so that I can access it. Is there a way to do this in AS3 with a Loader or is there another route I can go? If I do this with Arrays, how do I store the Index of the specific item so I can use that in reference to the position in each array?** Should I use getChildIndex() in the function for the Event Listener to reference the data stored in the arrays for each item? If so, how do I do so? ***
PHP Code:
num = 0;var titleArray:new Array();function createImage(){ var thumb:Loader = new Loader; thumb.load(new URLRequest(url);

ActionScript 3 :: Reset Collection Of Properties Or Create New Instance?
Apr 10, 2012I have a Matrix which I recycle and use for drawing DisplayObject instances onto a Bitmap. At the moment, I reset the Matrix before I render each item, like this:
_matrix.a = 1;
_matrix.b = 0;
_matrix.c = 0;
_matrix.d = 1;
_matrix.tx = 0;
_matrix.ty = 0;
Would it be better to do the above, or to simply do this?:
_matrix = new Matrix();
Generally I would say the former, however I'm unsure if in the case of Matrix there is some heavy stuff going on for each of those properties that I reset (mathematically).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Visibility Properties Of Different Layers?
May 18, 2009I currently have a scene in Flash CS4 that consists of an image layer1 (converted to a motion tween), image layer2 (converted to a motion tween), an actionscript 3.0 layer, and a hotspot layer. Let's say the animation is 10 frames long for simplicity. At frame1 I want the visibility of image layer 1 turned on and the visiblity of image layer 2 off. Then, I want to spin image layer 1 and 2 simaltaneously (I know how to do this with motion tweens of course) but mid-spin, say at Frame 5, I wish to turn on the visiblity of image layer 2 and turn off the visibility of image layer 1.
How do i change the visiblity properties of my image layers with actionscipt? I assume there is a class I need to load and then change the properties of the image layers in the actionscript layer at the corresponding frames I wish those properties to change.
