I define this function
function beatsFilledcheck():void
{
if (a1Shape == "none" || a2Shape == "none"[code].....
whenever I run as
beatsFilledcheck();
it sets beatsFilled = true even if all but one a*Shape variables are still "none".cant understand why?
I have a conditional statement (if) that I am trying to use contingent on multiple variables being true. So the AS I have right now is:

But when I run that I get the following error message: "Error 1050: Can not assign to a non reference value" What do I need to change so that once 1,2 and 3 have been visited visitComplete is set to true?
Ive racked my brain on this one and I just cant seem to see what im doing wrong. I have 2 text boxes that need to be evaluated against each other. Both are input boxes that capture and store data into variables. I just want to compare those values and run the proper code. t works fine for the first round. If I enter new values, the variables are updated as well. But the new values are not applied to the condition the second time around.
var requested: Number = input_txt1.text;
var total: Number = input_txt2.text;
btn_mc.onMouseUp = doPress;

I am attempting to create what I call an 'On Air' rotator for a radio station. I would like to pull in an image file for each program when it is on air. I have the following AS 3 code that seems to work:

var day = now.getDay(); // Returns integer between 0 and 6
var hour = now.getHours(); // Returns integer between 0 and 23

The weekday programming is the same every day. We have some programs that are three hours in length. I would like to cut down on the number of statements I write. I am unsure how to combine the weekdays and have a range of hours in one conditional statement. Will the following work?
if (day >= 0 && day <= 4 && hour >= 6 && hour <= 10)
I'm attempting to express the condition "if the day is Monday through Friday and the hour 6 am to 10 am"
Let's say i have a simple app where on mouse move user draws a shape. What i am trying to accomplish is to detect if drawn shape is circle so was wondering what would be the best or easier way to do that?
I believe i should do some math based on every drawn point X,Y coordinates but i need a push in right direction from more experienced people around.
i can set color of shape easily via shape.transform.colorTransform..... etc its unbeleiveable, what color is already filled in a shape??
i know, i can draw a bitmap on top of it and get pixel data from that... but
1- it seems lengthy approach ( lazy enough, don't want to write few more lines)
2- it confuses, because if i don't want to get color from pixel but i know one flat color is filled?? but shape is strange / arbitrary / random... how can i confirm that specific pixel has some color or not??
i just wanted to know what flat color is filled inside a shape(very edgy...)
I have 2 loadVars - myVars, myPictures
basically i have defined their onLoad functions
so in myVars, i call for
Code:
myPictures.load("http://www.fakedevil.com/lurgee/pictures2.php?id="+this._parent.link2.text+"&time=" add getTimer(), "");
pictures2.php is working cos I just check so by rite the variables loaded should change.. but somehow each time I check those variables in myPictures.onLoad, the variables are always the same.
Given a MovieClip containing a vectorshape (loaded from the library) - is there a way to check whether a line (from point(x1,y2) to point(x2,y2) intersects this shape?
View 1 Repliesi have a class that creates circles randomly placed at stage, i want then to move those circles and make them bounce off the stage, i know how to do that, the problem is that when i add a new shape into my stage, that shape, has an "x" value of 0, no matter where it appears, how can i check the real "x" value of that shape within the stage, so i can continue with the bouncing check...

I'm using shape tweens to morph one shape into another:While I enjoy some of the choices Flash makes for animating the transformations,I am wondering if you can control it in any way, or even have flash generate a different transformation.That demo shows about what I know, which amounts to: applying shape tweens for morphing; and motion tweens for 2d spinning, and basic movement from point A to point B.
View 2 RepliesI just want to know if there is a way to assign multiple variables, and if there is a way to check multiple variables.
I want to be able to assign variables to false and then check if all the variables are false.
We have a FLASH website that uses PHP to authenticate users.
We have recently been asked to implement TWO variables as we used to only have one.[code]...
I wanted to check the value of 5 different variables at the same time.
Based on the value each of variable I wanted to make 5 corresponding movie clips do something.
There has gotta be a better way to do this rather than me using a bunch of if else statements.
I have a form that uses PHP to check to see if all variables are filled in. I have a button with
on (release) {
formcheck();
}
that checks the formcheck function and then sends the form or gives a popup that tells what part of the form needs to be filled in.
My problem is that I have a movie that I'd loike to act as a button. I've done this before with any other command (gotoAndPlay, getURL, etc), but the
on (release) {
formcheck();
}
does not work with a mc button, only with a regular button. Does anyone know a way around this, or why it does not work?
First of all sorry im not very familiar with the flash lingo, im still new to all this actionscript stuff
ok so i wrote this on a frame in the timeline[code]...
now i need to check which one from all these has a value of zero. then when it finds it i need it to tell me which one it is (s1x or s2x or s3x) so i can do stuff with it.
it's not working. why not?

View 9 RepliesAny best way to script several MCs (acting as buttons) so that on release(), the alphas on the others tween to 20. When you go to click one of the dimmed button, its alpha should tween back to 100 and the previous one that had the full alpha should now fade to 20. Logically, I know I need to somehow implement a variable to check the state of the MC and an if statement to script the actual alpha tweens but I'm confused as how to actually implement it. Where to put it etc.

View 23 Repliesusing the shape tool you can draw basic shapesthen using the subselection tool you can re-shape them by relocating certain points
What i want to do is create a tween whereby one of the points is movedthe problem is you have to convert to a symbol first and after you have done that you cant change the shapes shape.so how do i go about using a motion tween to change the shape of a shape?
See [URL] Now there is a button called Answera, which when clicked should have a symbol (movie clip) called Check appear at the cordinated specified. Check exists in the libary (but does not have an instance name) and no where else on the stage. when I run this code I get: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Check. -> var rightCheck = new Check(); How is it undefinded if it exists in the libary?
View 7 RepliesThe following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?

So I'm not that familiar with using conditional statements yet, and I'm trying to get my head around it. I know what I need it to do, I'm just not sure of the correct syntax.I basically want a statement that says:

then play movieClip2
