ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Instances Of Clips From Library Dynamically?

Nov 19, 2010

hmm how do I describe what I'm trying to do.. well here it is: In my flash library I have a series of movieclip with names like clip00, clip01, clip02 they are set to export for actionscript as the same name.

Now in my as file I'm importing a xml file that has the names of the clips which to place on the stage. Now if it were just a regular case I would do

[Code]...

I hope I am somewhat clear, please let me know if I can explain further. My project is really complex and I tried simplify it here. Please help or suggest alternative method.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Create Card Instances Based On The Movie Clip Symbol In The Library?

Jan 28, 2010

the idea is to create a loop to that displays 16 cards face down in two rows and eight columns using either a "for" loop or "while" loop, execute 16 times once for each clip.use new to dynamically create card instances based on the Movie Clip symbol in the library.use a modulo operator to operate the x position of each clip use Math.floor to operate the y position of each clip set dynamic text value of the card clip to show appropriate card number add card to the display list if using the iteration variable ("while" loop).this is what i am using and i get one card (the stack of 16) in the bottom left hand corner with a 16 trace statements of "instance 2"

//create variable for number of columns
var numberOfColumns=8;
// requirement 1

Dynamically Creating New Movie Clips?

Apr 20, 2010

My game is initialized by calling the newBall function below. Every 10 seconds a new ball is created to increase the difficulty by calling the same function. The function works and creates the new ball movie clip, however the previous ball object gets destroyed for some reason. I have an array called ballArr that is supposed to keep track of all of the ball movie clips. I thought that by concatenating the name of the instance with an incrementing number that it wouldn't overwrite the existing object... what am I doing wrong?

Code:
function newBall() {
var ballNum = ballArr.length + 1;
var ball = this.attachMovie("ball_mc", "i" + string(ballNum), 0, {

I am dynamically creating a .swf using the Ming library for PHP. It doesn't support sound objects but it does support streaming MP3 Files. I need to know what happens to a .swf with an exported .mp3? I am hoping that using something like swf2flv will embed the .mp3 into the .flvBefore we get into a debate about reasons NOT to convert a .swf to a .flv it is absolutely necessary for my project.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Creating MovieClip From Library With External Class

Jun 10, 2010

I am making a Thumbnail class which is part of my Photo Gallery Package that I am building with the intent of automatically generating my thumbnails. I do not want to limit myself to just AS3 animations, I would also like the ability to use timeline animations. I have a system using "in" and "out" for frame labels which I find very efficient and I get stuff done quickly. So I created the thumbnails holder MovieClip with the animations and have it linked in my Library, however, when I try to pass it to my Thumbnail Class, I only get one instance and I need to create several instances.

Document Class
ActionScript Code:
var thumbCont:mcThumb = new mcThumb();
thumbNails = new Thumbnails(thumbCont);

Thumbnails Class
ActionScript Code:
var thumbContainer:MovieClip;
public function Thumbnails(thumbCont:MovieClip,) {
thumbContainer = thumbCont;
}private function createThumbs():void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < aThumbs.length; i++) {
[Code] .....

I eliminated most of the additional stuff. What this does is that it doesn't create several thumbContainers, rather it just uses the one. So how would I be able to generate several of them? I can obviously create an Array with them and create them in my document class, but if I can avoid that and have my thumbnail class do it by itself, that would be perfect.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Creating Movie Clips Using Loaded Variables?

Feb 3, 2010

I'm still a noob with flash. But I'm attempting to make my website using itSo far I haveseveral swf files that are all loaded into a "index" swf file.So all the code needs to work with that chain of MC's:_root.LoadedContent_mc.LoadedContent2_mc.Page1_mcThats the path to where I am working..Page1:I'm attempting to create a downloads list here. I have a phpfile already worked out that scans the directories "downloads" and "imgs", and generates a list of file names. It then formats each file name into a path to that file. And turns each path into a variable that can be loaded into flash.So basically after php does its thing we are left with this:

Code:
File1=Pages/PageData/Page1/Downloads/SomeTextFile.rar&File2=Pages/PageData/Page1/Downloads/SomeTextFile1.rar&File3=Pages/PageData/Page1/Downloads/SomeTextFile10.rar&File4=Pages/PageDat

Actionscript 3 :: Instantiating Movieclips From Library And Also Creating Them Dynamically Is Stop() Needed?

May 2, 2011

In the past, we've put a stop() action in the timeline of movieclip symbols so that the timeline would not play and we would control all animations via code. We've also done that to the main timeline as well. Is this still needed for performance reasons? Is this needed for dynamically created movieclips? I know that the Sprite class should be used if there is no timeline associated with it.

Actionscript 2.0 :: Creating A Gallery Of Images/sound Clips Which Load Dynamically?

Jan 18, 2009

So I've been working on a Flash-based web portfolio for my sound design work, and I'm creating a gallery of images/sound clips which load dynamically (that way I don't need to recompress the swf file every time I add/remove a production). I'm having trouble with checking to see if files exist; for example, I want to check if a sound file exists, and if it does, set the alpha property of a symbol to 100%, and if it doesn't, set the alpha property of that symbol to 25%.

The code I'm using works fine when I test the file locally, but as soon as I upload the file and test it, the movie responds as if a file exists even when it doesn't, and I can't figure out why.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Document Classes And Library Instances

Jul 14, 2009

1. I've got a Main Document class, that loads external swf each with its own document class (they are pages and pieces of the site).

2. The Main class makes use of some movieclip simply instantiated from the GUI library. It all goes fine.

3. The external swf have references to the Main class, and here start problems: when I compile them, I get an error for every library mclip used by Main. See the attachment. A simple trace(Main) is enough to start getting all that errors.

A partial solution is to uncheck Strict Mode in publish settings

ActionScript 3.0 :: Populating Multiple MCs With Instances Of Same Symbol From Library?

Aug 21, 2010

Say I've got something like this:

Code:
var parcher0:_parcher0 = new _parcher0();
_parcher0 is a Symbol in the Library with the Class definition _parcher0

I want to addChild this Symbol to an MC on the stage like this:

Code:
this.pccard0.sprite_.addChild(parcher0)

All good! Except I want to do the same thing, the same way, with this.pccard1.sprite_, and several more. When I do so, parcher0 only shows up on the final, most recently assigned addChild().

Is it forbidden to add a Symbol in this way in more than one place, and if so how do I get around it without creating a raft of arbitrary duplicates?
