ActionScript 3.0 :: Class - Keep Track Of The Currently Selected Tab In UI Navigation
Jul 31, 2009
I hope this isn't faux pas, but I'm making the transition from AS2 to AS3 and was wondering if I'm on the right track with this class. One question in particular I have is, I'm storing a reference (I think it's just a reference and not a copy) of "curTab" in order to keep track of the currently selected tab in this UI navigation. Is this using unnecessary memory and is there a better way to do this?

I'm using Flex 3 VideoDisplay class for playing streaming video. When I drag the track slider(change the playheadTime) there are no preview frames even if that part of the video is already loaded.
Is there anything I can do to enable this feature (from the configuration of media server or in the Flex client)?

I want to build a flash based website and place there 4 button MovieClip instances. Once the user clicks a button, all the EventListeners the button attached to (Mouse_OVER, Mouse_OUT, CLICK) are removed until you click another one. Then the previous button gets these listeners back again. One button is always active at a time, so you can't turn on/off buttons.I thought it would be easier to write a ButtonClass and link the button MovieClip to it. But I had to realize that I can't listen that previous button from that class, because it only listens itself obviously. I'm trying to use "dispatchEvent" but I can't get it to work.In the flash movie I have only one frame, 'cause I'm trying to do this without the timeline. I want to use Classes and this and that to practice but I'm stuck with this problem.

menu.menu_buttons.about_us.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, about_us_onClick);
function about_us_onClick(event:MouseEvent):void

I have used this navigation script several times in regular flash coding without problems (as in functions). Now I'm trying to put this code in a class for easier usage in future projects.Concept of the code is that I pass the instance of the mc in an variable so that I have an old and new location for enabling and disabling a "ON" state in an mc (vars : OldLocation && NewLocation).This is pretty basic stuff but I can't get it to work inside a class..Offcourse at the first click you will get an undefined because of no instance defined yet (I define it in the fla file).[code]

how this sort of navigation works: [URL] (you have to enter the site). I see this sort of thing used a lot and I would like to implement a simple version of this. I am assuming it is using the tween class and moving a movie clip based on coordinates.

So I want to create a timeline nav like this site:timeline is a 40 x 40px color filled movie clip that use as the playhead.featContent is the movie clip that contains the feature content.I make the timeline controls the feature contents to slide (using tween class) to the next feature. No problem on this, but I can't make the feature to slide when click on the button.
Code:
function loadFeature(node){
var m = 0;

I'm currently putting together a navigation that will be XML driven. The broad outline of what I'm trying to do is:XML > Custom XML parser class > Native Actionscript representation > Abstract Navigation Class > Concrete Navigation Class.The concrete Navigation class would have setter methods to allow you to skin it's appearance using display objects.
Code:
setButtonUpState(upState:DisplayObject)
This is fine if the Display object is purely Class based and draws itself programatically,

Is there any way to disable a few columns for a particular row in flex datagrid?
I have a datagrid with about 10 or more columns, say for example a few column names are: Item Id, Item Name, Item Status and VerifiedState. Initially I want the column Verified State to be disabled.
Now When the value of the column, Item Status is Review Passed for a particular row, I want the column VerifiedState to be enabled and editable. Is that possible in Flex datagrid.

I'm trying to make a game that is turn-based and allows players to first be selected, then click on a grid square to move there. However, I can't get a way for a variable storing whether the player is selected to be passed back to the actual grid class. I want the grid class to have an event listener that when the grid is clicked on, it will move the player there only if the player is selected. But whenever I try to declare a global variable either inside the grid class or even a document class or even access properties of the character class I'm trying to move I get errors.

// This is an array, a list of the buttons used. var myButtons = [this.myButton_1, this.myButton_2, this.myButton_3, this.myButton_4]; // Loops on all buttons from the first to the last one for (var i=0; i<myButtons.length; i++) { // When the mouse rolls over this menu option... reduce size just a bit. // NOTICE: I'm not taking into consideration the problem of having the hit area going down and "moving" the // mouse area and out of the button (possible rollover flicking). This is just a simple example afterall.

In the above instance how would I address the problem of flickering? I think want to apply the .onRollOver to an invisible button instead. How can this be done? Im just getting started with tweening animations outside the timeline with MCTween

The buttons on the page cause a jump to the individual movies (the web pages) which are on one layer concurrently. What I have right now works and now I want to add audio. The intent is to have a song start when the viewer connects to the website and will have controls to stop it if they wish. I added a layer that contains the audio which works OK but clicking the Home button causes the audio to play again resulting more than one audio track. I was able to fix that by starting the Home movie one frame later than the audio but I don't really think this is the right approach. Is the method I'm using for the audio correct (see screenshot) or is there a better way to do it? I need to control the audio independently with affecting the other layers. The music track will be in the Sound layer. I had to remove it because the song hasn't been released yet.The attached FLA is saved in CS3 but I am working in CS4.

Does anyone know of a way to track the load time of an XML document? I have an xml document that has over 150,000 lines and it takes a little time to load. I am ok with the load time in general however I would like to create a preloader to tack its process.
I have tried putting the xml load/onLoad code in a movie clip and use getBytesTotal and getBytesLoaded to track the mc progress but it seems as though when that mc is loaded the application freezes until the xml is fully loaded.

I"m using Flex 4 and an AdvancedDataGrid. I need to keep track of the previously selected item. I can't think of where to capture this though. In an itemClickHandler method, the grid's selectedItem value is already the current selected item.

I'm trying to make a "next track" button. "T" is meant to be track number, and every time they click this button, I wanted "T" to increase by one until T>4 where I need it to go back to T=1 (I've only got 4 tracks). Then, I want, depending on what "T" equals, for it to start playing Track"T" and stop playing previous track. I also want the track playing to be looping continuously. At the moment, everything is muted, until I press the button; where it then plays all four tracks at once. I also have a problem with the mute button, but I've got a strong feeling both are of the same reason. I think my problem is that it does not know what "T" equals to begin with so it accepts all if statements; playing all tracks. But I'm new to Flash (my second project) so I'm not sure.
on (release){
stopAllSounds();
T =T+1
if (T>4){
T=1
} if (T = 1){
_root.snd1.start(0, 100);

has anyone seen a handy component or code to monitor playback of your flv to see if flash is dropping frames.It would be nice to see total frames dropped, and maybe average frames dropped per second.In a perfect world it would be a graph over time.

I am using an addChild() method to place an intro MovieClip into a website. It has a short ten second musical track. I also have a skip intro button on the stage which does a removChild(). I keep trying to write code that will also stop the sound, which continues to play. I tried loading the sound separately and used the channel.stop(); So far nothing is working. It seems like I've been here before.

I have a quiz created in Flex using Spark forms, with a series of questions which are a group of radio buttons. When the user clicks "next", I get the value of the selected radio button in the group. What I need to do is keep track of these values; at the end of the quiz I will need to see which value was chosen the most. So if the user mostly picked the questions with a "3" value, I can display a summary based on that, e.g. "You mostly chose type 3 answers". I was thinking about having an int variable for every choice (there are 5), and incrementing the appropriate variable when the user clicks "next", as in
private function enterScore(i:int):void {
switch (i){
case 1:
num1++;
break;
But this seems unwieldy. I also will need to compare the 5 tallies for which one was chosen the most...

I am using CS4.What I want to do is gather input from a user, and each time they click on a certain button, in this case the YES button, I would like a number added to the var such as score++. This way, I can use a case statement at the end to direct the user to the right product.However, my code does not work,
var score:Number = 0;
var score_txt:TextField = new TextField();
score_txt.x = 150;
