ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Separate Functions For Each Button And Added The Line RemoveChild() - Statement
Jan 7, 2012
I am trying to load various swfs into a main swf. The initial swf loads in by default, the others load when buttons are clicked. All of the buttons also call a lengthy function called loadpic which appears later in the code - Currently the buttons load in the swfs as required, however the swfs are always behind the initial default swf. Is there a way to add removeChild to the buttons? I have tried creating seperate functions for each button and added the line removeChild(); however doing that means I would also have to repeat all of the later functions as well. If I add removeChild(); without placing it in a function the default swf doesn't show at all.

I have a SimpleButton on the stage, and in the click event for it, I remove it using removeChild(). When re-adding the button, it gets re-added in it's "over" state, not the "up" state as expected.
I'm pretty sure it's a bug, so I've filed a JIRA:[URL]..What I've tried: sing visible = false instead works, but I'd prefer to remove it off the stage altogether as the game I'm working on can have a lot of popups/screens. Firing the mouse_out event manually - doesn't work, and in any case, the mouse_out event fires as expected (perhaps before resetting to the up state, it makes a check to see if it's added to the stage, finds out it's not, then quits early)Resetting the stage focus - I thought it was a problem with the stage focus, as you were losing focus when the button was hidden, but resetting it didn't fix it.I could temporarily swap the over and up state when it's hidden, but that seems like an ugly fix.

This has served me well, but I've been designing a new sight and wanted to get more into Action Script to control functions to help improve both my programming and keep my file size down.
So I decided to create an instance of a block (rectangle shape as another movieclip) and have multiple layers. One which controls the actions of two other blocks. The upper most block would not be visable until I ran the cursor over it (increase its Alpha property from 0 to 100 one step at a time in a loop). This would reverse when the cursor ran off (reduce Alpha property from 100 [or less] back to 0 in a loop).
I've read and re-read every flash book I own on the subject and cannot understand why I can't control another instance of a different movieclip.

Is there a way I can make something removeChild IF it's added? Because it might not be added, but I need it to remove it IF it is.

I have 3 different functions for my preloader. I have an Event.OPEN, ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, and an Event.COMPLETE. In the event.OPEN function, I create a new variable that is data typed to the class name of my preloader that I set in it's property dialogue box. This is just a simple circle animation.[code]...

How do I create and control a line of text that i turned into a button. I want to have a selected state built into the button. is that possible? Previously I created a light next to the text that changes color or highlights when the button had been selected, but I would like the text to change color when it is selected and have script that I can use to reset the button state when another button is selected.
Current button:
Actionscript Code:
S1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,click_S1);
function click_S1(evt:Event):void {
Truck.gotoAndStop(16);}

I am trying to use the CSVLib from [URL].. However; when trying to use one of the examples I get an "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addFrameScript."This is what I did.Extracted the files, then moved all FLA, AS and CSV files in the root (where also the COM folder resides). Then added the import statement to the Applicaiton file and defined document class.

I would like to know if this is actually possible in AS3. I'm not really fluent in Java-style programming, but very used to C++'s .cpp and .h file system. Right now my functions are defined where my class is defined, so as you can imagine, my classes look incredibly untidy and disorganized.

This is doable in almost every language ive coded in. I would like to place a function in a separate .as file, as to not clutter up my main .as file. Ive already got about 15 classes in separate files and I know there must be some way to do this and its got to be pretty obvious.

I'm working on an mp3 player. It makes use of a custom scrollbar I found here: [URL]
I've gotten it to work so far, but there is one bit I would like to add. I would like it to scroll to specific y-coords when a button is clicked. The code for the scrollbar is all in an external AS file, which is referred to by an exported movieclip in the main fla.
how I would go about referring to this file, or just some other method of doing this? I'll paste the AS code as well as the basic fla code.
fla code:
Code:
var s:Sprite = new Sprite();
txt_mc.spacer.visible = false;
sb.init(txt_mc, "easeOutBack",0,true,2);

while the condition of a if statement is true, as in the following hypothetical example, will it keep executing that code continuously until the condition somehow becomes false?
i.e. - will it keep trying to load the photo into the photo_movieClip instance continuously until the condition is false?
Code:
if (condition == true) {photo_movieClip.loadPhoto(image); //send image from array to load into photo_mc};
[i]...If so, how can i make it call that function only once even if the condition remains true?

I've managed to create a button which on MOUSE_DOWN scales its parent object- it works just like windows in your OS, where you grab the corner and can change the scale of the window.
Here's how I've done it, (minus the MOUSE_DOWN listener)
Code:
function scaleDragHandler(event:Event):void {
var mcWidth:Number = event.target.parent.width;
var mcHeight:Number = event.target.parent.height;
[Code].....
However, it throws the error, "Access to undefined property 'scaleMC'" on the removeEventListener line. My thought was to put another listener for mouse up inside the first, but that sounds wrong

I'm adding a line to a canvas using canvas.moveTo(0, 0); canvas.lineTo(100, 100);, but I then want the user to move the mouse to set the rotation of the line.Google suggests using the rotation property,but I don't have a reference to the line object.Can I get a reference to the line or should I rotate the whole canvas?

I have just started learning AS3 (2-3 weeks) and I have to say its very enjoyable!I am trying to make a function that pulls in values to save me writing 15 separate functions!I have a "street mc" which has 15 "house mc's" inside.When the user hovers over a house I want the resident to appear above the house.The house instance name is house1 and there is a mc in the library linked using the MrsRoy() class.This is my code so far:
Code:
var house1Res:MovieClip = new MrsRoy();
function resIconIn(e:MouseEvent):void{
var currentHouse = "street." + e.target.name;
var currentRes = e.target.name + "Res";
[code]....
I get the error:
TypeError: Error #1006: value is not a function.

I'm learning AS3 and I'm doing pretty well at the moment but I've got stuck at a point I can't seem to get past or work out a way to do it. After a few hours of googling I've decided to pick the brains of KIRUPA forumBasically I dynamically create a dozen movieclips. Now I have drag and drop events on these clips and I want to be able to drag a movieclip, drop it onto a trashbin movieclip that i've named 'trash' which would then removeChild the movieclip i've just dropped it ontop of.How would I go about doing this?

This may be a stupid simple question. But I am unable to figure out how to edit a Transition Time Line Effect once it's been implemented. I added the effect with no problems, but I need to make some adjustments to the fade now (because I am using the Transition effect), and I cannot find the controls again.

I'm trying to add a line to a movie clip. When I trace the width of the lineadded it traces correctly, but the line doesn't appear. If I do everything the same but add the line to the stage instead of the movie clip it does appear. I know this is one of those cases where I can't see the forest fro the trees but
Here's the relevant code:

I'm using the text effect I found in ActionScript Text Animation , and the script works great.
My question is, is it possible to have line breaks? I tried adding spaces to end a line, but you'd have to wait for the script to read through the added spaces before the next line begins.

The old method for the mx:TextArea no longer works. Specifically:
myMxTextArea.verticalScrollPosition = myMxTextArea.maxVerticalScrollPosition;
I've found this method for Spark but seems a bit kludgy:
mySparkTA.scrollToRange(mySparkTA.text.length-1, mySparkTA.text.length);
Is there a more straightforward way to do this?

I'm using Flash MX 2004 Actionscript.
I'm trying to get control of the time line using a conditional statement.
if (myVars.logged == "Logged") {
gotoAndStop(20);
}
I trace the myVars.logged variable and the trace tells me the value is Logged.
But the above statement won't go to frame 20.

myButton.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://google.com", "_blank");

the only problem is that the button doesn't work onRelease. i think that it is because there are too many functions there, but at the same time,

I'm loading in some data from an XML into Flash then searching a level and returning a number depending on how many nodes are on that level (at the moment is "2") Then I collect bits of info from each and trace the results which works fine, problem is I can't seem to create a separte textbox for each result?
Code:
_root.total = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
venue[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[8].firstChild;
team_a[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild;
team_b[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild;
kick_off[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[5].firstChild;
trace((venue[i]) + ": " + (team_a[i]) + " v " + (team_b[i]) + ", Kick off at " + (kick_off[i]));
I thought I would just need to write something like:
fixture[i].text = (venue[i]) + ": " + (team_a[i]) + " v " + (team_b[i]) + ", Kick off at " + (kick_off[i]);
But that doesn't work..it just displays the 2nd result

I've created a small application that links various Sound Clips to corresponding Sound variables, and the individual start and stop commands work fine. However, when I try altering the volume, the controls affect all the sounds in the movie. I'd like to refrain from creating separate SWF files to represent each sound, but I will if I have to.
