ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect If A Variable Has Been Changed By A Swf Loaded Into Another Swf
Jul 20, 2010
So I'm trying to detect if a variable has been changed by a swf loaded into another swf.What I'm doing is when a thumbnail is clicked on the child swf I want it to fire a function on the main swf. I can get the model to trace out when the value was changed inside of the child swf by itself but when i load it into the main swf I can't get the onModelChanged event to fire off.Container swf as
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[code].....

I'm trying to detect if a shared object's value has changed. Is there a way to do this? I'm using setProperty and it works fine but I need to change info the info has changed. I have tried event.changeList but it just shoots out [Objects] without giving me values. Can't it tell me a boolean to see if it has changed?

I just want to know if there is any TextChange Event or equivalent to that in AS3? I am currently using Adobe Flash CS3 with my AS3 files and I have to detect whether or not my TextTool's value has changed or not. With my data being integers ranging from -4.440 to 3.560, I obviously cannot use the != operator.

I need to detect when a Flex Spark List (spark.components.List) data has changed so that I can programmatically change its scrollbar. I know that List is a an EventDispatcher but it's unclear which event I'd register for.
Edit: My List's dataProvider is an ArrayCollection that elements are added too. So the dataProvider is never replaced. I considered listening to the backing ArrayCollection, but it's possible the List will react to the change after my listener, which alters the scrollbar. Thus my listener's changes will be superseded by that of the List.

I have 2 classes: A Main.as and XmlLoader.as. In Main.as I now want to access a variable of a XmlLoader-instance, which has been changed in run-time by a Event.COMPLETE EventListener.To make things clearer here some code:
Code:
Main.as:
package {
import flash.display.*;
[code]....
in Main.as I want to trace (trace(_xmlData._xml)) the xml file which is loaded.

I am converting all embed statements in my site with lazy loading. The code which was previously like this:
[Embed(source="/newswf.swf", symbol="kungfu")]
public static var Kungfu:Class;
has now been converted to this form:
private var _loader:Loader = new Loader();
public static var abcd:Class = null;
_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onLoadComplete);

I have a flash movie being loaded inside a parent movie. Inside the loaded movie is a variable called lvl, and its refered to as loadedmovie.lvl in the parent movie.
So if i'm wondering what the lvl is in the loaded movie, I just use loadedmovie.lvl to get the variable.
But I want to know when this variable CHANGES. How am I able to detect when this lvl variable changes? Inside the loaded movie, it's been set to change almost every frame in the movie, but I'm not going to call a function inside every frame of that movie to find out when it changes.
how do I detect a variable change and then make it call a function?

Well basically what I want to do is have my code figure out that a variable has changed value and then call a function to store that value in my class.I have a component with a text box in it that displays a value gotten from either typing in the box or moving a slider. I then need the last value (where they stop sliding or typing) to be stored in my class

I have an external transparent swf loading in to my movie. The swf has to be imported over a button element on stage. The swf plays for a few seconds than it appears to go off-stage... at which point I need to free up that button to be clicked.
So, I need to detect when that movie has finished playing and then unload.
My code so far.
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
[Code]....

I can't get my head around this. I know there's a clever way to do this but none of my ideas seem to be the solution. I'd like to dispatch an event when there are no more items to be loaded. I'm working with Drupal and AMFPHP and loading some nodes. The number of nodes may vary from day to day so I need a way to know when the last one has loaded.
In the code below, I am building an array to use elsewhere in the application. Once all nodes have finished loading I'd like to know what the final length of portfolioItems is.

I have a main swf that will load external swfs into a container. I need to detect the end of the loaded external swf in order to start to load and play a new one into the same container. The problem is that i do not know what the length of the external swfs will be, and will have no control over the development of them, so i cannot place a variable at the end of their animation which would allow me to detect from the main movie its end. I also cannot rely on the _totalFrames property because the loaded swf might not have all the animation inside its main timeline.

In the past, using Flash CS3 when I needed to remove timers or event listeners from a swf that had been loaded into a parent swf I'd use this inside the loaded swf:
Code:
this.addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, deactivate, false, 0, true);
function deactivate(e:Event):void
{
[code]....
Now that I've upgraded to CS5 and am outputting to Flash Player 10 this no longer seems to work. The event fires right away. Does anyone know why this might be and if there's an alternative that I can use?I tried the unloadAndStop() method in the parent swf but I'm trying to remove some TweenMax delay timers and it doesn't seem to be working.

I'm going to load some external files in to my main fla-file. I want the code in my main fla to be executed when all files are properly loaded.
#include "MyFile.as"
I had this:
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadCompleted);
loader.load(new URLRequest("MyFile.xml"));
[code]....
but now I want to include an as-file aswell so both has to be loaded before loadCompleted triggers.

Working in AS2, using CS3 Flash Pro I've simplified this to just the one little thing I'm trying to do.
countervariables.txt has this text in it:
[Code]...
The trace shows itemsPerMili as 'NAN' and totalForYear as 'undefined'. I know itemsPerMili yields 'Not A Number' because totalForYear comes up undefined, but oddly, the loaded variable does show up correctly in a dynamic text field assigned to the variable. I don't understand why it should show up in the dynamic text field correctly when it won't trace.
I want to see the number "3.80517503" in my trace for itemsPerMili.

I'm using AS3 to get variables from a plain text file. The variables are loaded, and assigned as a variable in Flash.
Code:
var checkNew:Timer = new Timer(2000);
checkNew.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, reConnect);
checkNew.start();
[Code].....
So basically as you can see here, the gamertag is loaded from a plain text PHP file and converted into a variable. What I need to be able to do is tell whether or not that variable has changed (ex. 1 changed to 2).

how do you detect change in a _global variable?
This following is the code I am using which watches for change. (only the local variable)
ActionScript Code:
// Declaring the variable
myVar = "AtoF";
// Callback that will be triggered every time there is a change
[Code]....
I use _global to declare the global variable and its not working with this code.

I am loading jpgs into an MC. I make sure I wait to run and modification to the MC by confirming the image is loaded first.If I comment out the IF statements within the function "RW_pic_modifications()" and I trace the width and height of the MC AFTER each photo is loaded, I successfully trace the correct W and H.
My issue, however is when I DO RUN IT THROUGH the conditions within the "RW_pic_modifications()" function. Then any modifications to the MC W and H seem to compound and apply it to each iteration of the next MCs.I confirmed that my code and logic is correct. I just dont understand why performing a resize to the MC with one jpg loaded into it is not reset to the NEW JPG loaded into it, after the new JPG is loaded.
NOTE - I have an MC that stops on a frame until all the code here is executed. Once complete, then this MC plays to allow the pic to stay on screen for a given amount of time THEN it calls on the RW_Pauser() function.I am way over deadline.
Code:
How_long_to_pause = 4000;
Maximum_Image_Width = 137;[code].....

I have XML that looks like this:
<question>
<type_elt>
<opt_out_flag />
</type_elt>
</question>
type_elt is not an element name; it might be <single>, <multiple> or something else, determined at runtime. How, given this, can I detect the presence of the opt_out_flag element?
I tried this (where xml refers to the question element):
if (xml.*.opt_out_flag) {
do_something();
}
but even in cases without opt_out_flag the above expression returns true. Obviously I'm missing something, but what is it?
