ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Button. (using FlashDevelop And Flixel)?
Nov 27, 2010
I'm completely new to ActionScript (as well as brand new to this forum). I'm using FlashDevelop and Flixel to attempt to make games.
The error code I'm getting is: "Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type QuitButton." I have an image, quit.png, that I want to use as a Quit button. When clicked on, I'd like the game to go back to the MenuState. I have the image embedded in QuitButton.as, and MenuState is MenuState.as. The actual button appears in PlayState.as. Here is QuitButton.as, as this is where the problem lies:
[Code]...
I have done some intense googling to try to find a solution, which I'd assume is obvious since I've only just started with flash and I'm not programming anything too difficult yet.

So I got this AS3 game thats completely written in Flex without the .fla file and I want to put a clickable button that links back to a webpage to the mainmenu screen.
In the IDE and AS2(which is what I usually work in), it was just simply:
Drag button onto the screen Convert it into a button symbol and then do this:
Code:
on(release)
{
getURL("http://www.urlhere.com",_blank);
}

I'm currently trying to work with flixel library via Flash IDE.
Everything is okay except the preloader - it just doesn't work.
I suppose the flash IDE does not support the directive [Frame(factoryClass="Preloader")], which flixel uses when being compiled in flex builder to create a preloader.
Any way to get the flixel preloader working with ide (without modifying flixel sources)?.

I have a Flixel project with multiple FlxCamera's. One of them is the main play area, and another is the radar display within the HUD to the right of the main area. I want to add a layer (FlxGroup) to just the radar camera, and I also want to exclude my other layers from the radar camera so they don't randomly show up in the radar's area.
My question is, how do I tell the cameras to only show objects in certain FlxGroup's?

I have something odd happening when I update a FlxSprite's alpha repeatedly to make it fade out. Instead of taking 150 seconds to fade out completely (I actually want 15 seconds), it fades out over maybe 2 seconds. I tried tracing the actual alpha value, and the sprite is invisible when the alpha value is around 0.95 (95% opacity, ie slightly transparent). how I can get the alpha to work properly in Flixel?

I have been searching the web and all of the codes I have found are to play external swf files that have a timeline. The file that I am trying to load does not have a timeline. I am using the Flixel framework for this project and the file that I want to play is also made in Flixel(don't have the source file just the swf file).Most of the code I have is from a cutscene template that I found on the Flixel forum. Here is what I have so far:
package
{
import org.flixel.FlxState;
import org.flixel.FlxG;
[code]....
When I run this I get this error: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert SponsorsState_SwfClass@fb5161 to flash.display.MovieClip., all I want to do is play the swf file for a set frame count then move onto the next state.

I have a couple of dialog screens made from FlxGroups. The first screen, LandingScreen has a button that opens a second screen, CargoShop. Whenever a screen is added, it is made the active screen in my FlxState, and the other screens' buttons are set to active = false; So, when the button to open the CargoShop screen is clicked, it is set to active = false; at the next update cycle.
Now, the CargoShop screen has a button to close it, which makes the LandingScreen active again. For some reason, as soon as the CargoShop screen is closed, a new one is instantly opened as if the shop button had been clicked again.
These buttons are not on top of each other. Is there some trick I'm missing with FlxButton that is thinks it's clicked when it's not? It only happens when I use the mouse; if I close the CargoScreen with a keyboard command, a new one is not instantly created.

I have been programming with as3 for the past 4 months and Ive been getting rather good at it. I just recently decided to work with flashdevelop. I notice that there is alot of code that is availible in the flex sdk that isn't available in as3 with flash cs4. Like embedding of assets and such. I've been trying to find some up to date tutorials on how to embed things like xml and so far the tutorials are inaccurate or unclear about how to go about doing so. Ive been trying to find some good books that cover that and havnt been able to.
The books either cover as3 with flash or as and flex builder. Which is more towards working with the mxml. I havnt been able to find any books on how to work with as3 and flex sdk. Which show examples like embedding of xml and so on. I was just curious does anyone know of any good books that cover EVERYTHING there is to know about as3 and the flex sdk. Not so much on flex builder and mxml.
In a sense, I just want to get better with working with as3 projects with flashdevelop. And it would be great if there was books that covered that. Cause lets just face it, We developers sometimes just get sick of searching the web for bits of pieces of things. and its just great to have that one good book that references everything.

I have inherited a Flash project that (I THINK) was started in FlexBuilder, but I dont have FlexBuilder. I have CS3 and FlashDevelop, is it possible for me to continue this project using the tools that I have?
There are a bunch of wierd files like ".project" and ".actionScriptProperties", and obviously no .FLA file.How can I get up and running using either CS3 or FlashDevelop?

Draw a rectangle using the rectangle tool; select the text tool and create a text box inside of the rectangle, and type in BEGIN; make sure it fits inside the rectangle; select entire image by left clicking then dragging over it; convert to symbol button.
Then, I add in the code of going to keyframe 4 when released (which works fine). But when I test it out and mouse over the button, I can still select the text which gives me like barely any space where I can click the button to go to keyframe 4. This is reeaaallly annoying me. How can I fix this?
