ActionScript 3.0 :: Targeting A Textfield On Stage From A Class?
Feb 13, 2010I'm trying to access a text field from what I believe is called a sub-class. The text field is defined in the .fla file and the .fla file is set up to use Main.as as its document class.I got three files; scrollText.fla, Main.as and TextUtils.as.I know most of the code is working as I programmed it all in Main.as first, but when I moved the code to target the text field into its own class file I ran into error "1120: Access of undefined property" although I have declared the variable correctly and early enough to be used at this point in my code.This is the code I got so far:Main.as

package{ import flash.display.Sprite; import TextUtils; public class Main extends Sprite public function Main()

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Textfield On Stage From Another Class?
Jan 13, 2009This is for AIR: My document class imports a separate class "ConnMonitor" and uses it to constantly monitor the network connection. It's at the very end of that class where it's supposed to update a textfield on the stage as the connection changes, but the class can't access the textfield.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Display Object On Stage From Another Class
Jun 8, 2011I've googled this to no avail, I've only found how to manipulate the stage itself and not a display object on it,I have a movie clip on the main timeline with instance name displayName. I created a button that should change what frame displayName goes to (in order to...did you guess it?! diplay the Name of the button.So I am trying to write the code in a reusable fashion and have the buttons all linked to a class called GeoPuzzle. Inside GeoPuzzle I instantiate a touch event and run the code. However, the function has to be able to change displayName in the main part of the timeline and, of course, the compiler says displayName doesn't exist because I'm in a class and I'm talking about the stage.[code]How can I tell displayName to change it's current frame from within display object class?

3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.

Feb 3, 2009Ok, this is one of those walls that I know once I can jump over it, I will be a much happier developer again.
I've done tons of reading, and think I have a firm understanding that the general consensus is that if you want to reference something, it needs to be added to the display list, using addChild().
I hate to be defiant, but what if I don't want to?
Or at the very least, what if I want to add a movieclip class to the stage using addChild, and then reference objects inside it?
It is much easier this way than what most people recommend - adding 15 objects via addChild, then setting the x and y for the, etc.
That said, I'm all about using classes and using as3 the way it was meant to be used. So what this is, is a best practices question I guess.
HERE ARE THE STEPS I'M TRYING:
- Create new flash document
- Draw graphic symbol bg, with text field over it, select them, convert to movieclip symbol, and export class name "box", then delete it from stage
- Add document class .as file, which simply adds that class "box" from the library, to the display list using a simple addChild()
- Set a name for that box using box.name = "test" let's say
- Do a simple trace like the following - "getChildByName('test').textFieldName" - it shows up great
- So then, I'll now try to set the text by doing this - getChildByName('test').textFieldName.text = "yo";
That last line above, is what doesn't work. I know I'm referencing wrong, but how would a pro as3 developer, reference something on the stage within a movieclip class, from the document class?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Access TextField From Class Imported By Doc Class?
Aug 17, 2010I'm just now learning the new object oriented way of scripting. It's been a wild ride, but I've finally learned how to keep script off my frames (very hard coming from as2).Here's my problem:
I have a TextField on the stage in my main .fla file named loadPercent.
I'm loading a jpg with preLoad.as and displaying the bytes loaded in loadPercent.
I can access my loadPercent TextField from my MainClass
but I can't access it from preLoad.as
the document class is MainClass.as
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
I get three '#1120 access of undefined propery' errors for each time i try to access loadPercent.
a few basic questions: 1. all my files are in a folder in my documents, not in the flash directory, is this bad? I've seen people using com.whatever etc.
2. my main .fla file does not share the same name as my MainClass.as (it's not named MainClass.fla) Is that a problem?
I'm assuming these are inconsequential because my code seems to work up to a certain point.
Actionscript 3 :: Flash CS5 Reference A Display Object From A Class Other Than The Document Class
Jul 28, 2011Using Flash CS5 Professional I have created a symbol, dragged it onto the stage, and given it an instance name of GreenLight1. If I want to make this visible from the document class, I can simply do the GreenLight1.visible=true; and poof it's good to go when I test the file. As long as I stay in the document class I am good to go, but now I'm trying to move to another class and hitting ALL kinds of trouble just trying to get Flash to allow me to access this simple object. All I am looking to do is have this GreenLight1 go invisible (visible=false) when a certain condition occurs in this new class and Flash just won't let me access GreenLight1 at all. Things I've tried thus far:
stage is passed to the class and is referenced by _stage and is working just fine when I do _stage.addchild or anything like that. So I have tried "_stage.GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property GreenLight1 not found on flash.display.Stage and there is no default value." My document class extends Sprite, so I figured I'd try the root function. So I tried "Sprite(root).GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property GreenLight1 through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite." I tried to create the Resource class as described therein. To which I came across the same problem that I started with in that it doesn't know what GreenLight1 is to begin with so I got "1120: Access of undefined property GreenLight1." Here is my code for Resource.as (am I supposed to pass something to this class from the document class?)

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField Does't Display?
Jul 23, 2009Im making a swf that makes a Tween of 3 textFields, when i export it for flash Player 10 it works right. But as soon as i export it for Flash Player 9 or play it on a machine with Flash Player 9, everything works right except the TextField, it just doesn't display but doesn't throw any error. Even the TweenEvent gets dispatched like if it had worked right.I've been debugging it and all the variables are present and with correct values. Is there an issue of TextField or Tween compatibility with Flash Player 9??, NOTE: Currently Working with CS4

ActionScript 3.0 :: Display Raw XML In TextField
Feb 23, 2010Is this at all possible? I'm trying to write raw XML (tags, attributes, indents and all) in a text field. The problem is that the text field is using .htmlText, for text coloring, so I cannot simply use the .text property instead. The result is that the XML tags are interpreted as HTML and subsequently only their contents are shown.

Dec 13, 2009I am trying to display a text field that has text inside it, and display the flashing Caret at the end of the text. I have tried the following:
Code:
// ti_title is my textField
stage.focus = ti_title;
ti_title.setSelection( ti_title.length, ti_title.length );
[code]....
The field is focused because I can type into it, but I do not see a Caret until I have started typing. This is not very good for usability.
I have even tried removing text then re-adding it and then setting the selection again, but still not working.
