ActionScript 2.0 :: Loader Instances - Cannot Create Dynamic Names
Jul 30, 2009I have a number of loader instances (loader1, loader2, loader) which I will use to load pictures. I tried to create a loop and run the command
for(var st=1,st<4,st++) {
_root.movie_clip.loader+st.load("picture.jpg");
}
The concatenation "loader+st" doesn't seem to work. Is it not supported in AS2.0?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Array With Dynamic Names From Within Function?
Oct 15, 2009I've got an array (slides) that I parsed from an amfphp return that contains the following data in each array element:
slides = (chapterName, lessonName, slideName, slideText), for every slide in the course
I'm trying to get arrays out this that will look like:
chp1Array = list of Lesson names in that Chapter
chp1Less1Array = list of slide names in that Lesson
chp1Less2Array
chp2Array
chp2Less1Array
chp2Less2Array
chp2Less3Array
etc. etc.
This wouldn't be a problem in as2 but I can't get it to work in AS3 because it gives me errors when I try to create the arrays with dynamic names from within the function? How to get the dynamic number into the array name...
Flash :: Dynamic Variable Names In Static Function?
Dec 14, 2011Is there any way that you can have dynamic variables inside of a static function considering that you can't use "this" inside a dynamic function.
What I am trying to do:

{
if(pString == "" || pString == null) return "";

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Hit Testing Against Dynamic Instance Names?
Jun 22, 2010Ok, Background. I have two objects both of which im spawining in though code. We will call them bullets and wolves. They have their own .AS files which tells them everything they need to know about themselves. I figured i would do most of the hit testing on the bullet.AS file, hit testing against the wolves as there were going to be a set number of wolves but not a set number of bullets.o, I named them by running a loop and putting the linenewWolf.name = i.toString();Yes, new wolf is a declared variable, and i is the name of the variable that makes the loop run. I also have a test in it, and it works fine.
However, The hit testing is where i come into an issue. Remember, its on a seperate .AS file. The wolf maker and namer is on the main flash page.The hit testing function isif(this.hitTestObject(a)){i changed up my variable name to run a second loop. first variable name is "i" and the second variable name is "a"And for some reason i get a type error 1034, which from what i understand is an error that you get when two instance names are the same. Also, If possible, i would like to add letters to the name of the object, but im not sure if flash will let me as i belive the code would look something like this
ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Add Dynamic Names To MC's
May 27, 2010I am trying to create a pretty simple image script for a flash website. What it does is to create a container named mc and then loads in an image into the mc from XML. It goes through the XML file like in a for each loop. But the problem I have is that every image container then gets the name mc. So then now when I try to build the function which makes it possible to press on one of the image containers to enlarge them, it only makes the last image larger since that is the last one to be created with the name mc. So how do I give every movieclip that I create a different name such as mc1, mc2 etc.[code]

ActionScript 1/2 :: Dynamic MovieClip Names?

But it does not work. The trace comes back with the full movie clip name ex: mcTom, but even though that value comes up in the trace, the AS doesn't see it as a movie clip. Any thoughts on how I can correct this?

But my code isn't working. I'm guessing the "this" part is what is messing it up. Thinking that the computer doesn't know which MC is "this". It traces fine outside the function, but inside the function it traces undefined.[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: ASP And Dynamic Variable Text Box Names
Nov 23, 2005Having a problem with a Flash/ASP/Database project.I've seen tutorials that pulls address book listings dynamically from the DB. When you hit "next" button it just populates dynamic text fields with variable names like "name" "address" with the appropriate info. Problem I'm having is.. what if you want to display all the entries on the same screen.If the variable names on the dynamic text fields are hard coded named "name" "address" "phone number" etc. , how can the second set of info display underneath the first one properly and not just pull the same text from the first record into the text fields? (name2, address2, etc.)
Is there a way to dynamically change the variable name of a dynamic text field? I'm thinking you should be able to have it note how many records there are, then loop until it reaches the end of the record set. So, can the variable names be dynamic so it will populate the text fields with the appropriate info?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Class Names With New Operator?
Aug 4, 2006I have 50 movie clips in the Library that use Linkage to set the Class name to: Img1, Img2, Img3, ..., Img50. I have a parent class named RandImg. I want the constructor for RandImg to randomly select one of the 50 movie clips from the Library and display it. I could get this working by generating a random number, and then writing a really huge switch statement to associate each possible random number with its respective Library Movie Clip Class name, but I would much rather do this with a dynamic/variable class name based on the random number, such as:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Array Names In A For Statement?
Nov 27, 2007I am making an XML multiple-gallery flash site for a client. The chunk of code I am having trouble with is populating the thumbmails section of the site with all the pictures in all the galleries. The image paths are brought in and stored in an array - one array for each gallery's image paths. The problem is that when I try to cycle through all the images to put them into movie clips (using a fore statement) I am having trouble dynamically addressing the arrays. More specifically, flash interprets them as strings, and does not evaluate the variables in them.
Code:
function images(i){
var temp:Number = eval("g"+i+"im.length");
for (var r:Number=1; r<=temp; r++){
[Code]....
The argument images() takes is the gallery number (from another function). I have tried using eval() and trace to see what the problem is. Basically I can make it output the correct STRINGS, but flash will not convert the variables in the strings! So in the URL (first arg) of loadMovie it is seeing something like "g2im[3]" as a string, and not evaluating it to the value at index 4 of that array.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Arrays - Dynamic Field Names?
Mar 3, 2010I need to create dynamic arrays with field names loaded from a database. So, the names for the fields will be always different.Then, suppose I have the names "product" and "color" to create the following array structure dynamically:var myarray:Array = new Array;myarray[0] = ({product:undefined,color:undefined});But in other ocasion, the names may be say "brand" and "model", so the array will be:myarray[0] = ({brand:undefined,model:undefined});
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Call Dynamic MovieClip Names?
Oct 17, 2011I'm looking to get some information on something I've been wondering about for a while now. Is it possible to call a dynamic movieclip? Here's an example: I have 30 movieclips all named sequentially: A001, A002, A003, etc. I want to make a listener to dynamically know if I've clicked any one of the 30, but also know which of the 30 I've clicked.
You know, to avoid writing 30 variations of a listener. (not to mention that I have 5 categories to do this for, meaning there are 150 in total) Perhaps what I would need out of it would be the number value, as well. To perhaps place that in a variable after it has been recognized, so I can use it in the function.
