ActionScript 3.0 :: Even Copying Script Verbatim Brings Errors

Mar 22, 2011

I have copied ActionScript 1:1 - Create a Clock (episode 15) with Doug Winnie word for word and still I'm getting errors. /*create a timer that could do something every second 60 times*/
 
var clockTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 60);
 
/*add an event listerer to the button that will call the startTimer function*/ 
startButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startTimer);
/*add event listeners for the timer*/ 
clockTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveHand);clockTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, endTimer);

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scripting A Button To Be Pushed - Brings To A Certain Frame

Jul 14, 2008

I am looking for a script that would say that when one button is pressed it brings you to a certain frame and that a button on that frame is pressed. I am making new links to an already created site, it was not done with frames but rather has a series of movieclip buttons that make related info appear. Now I have new frames that will link to that info. I can get to the right frame by inputting

arru_btn.onPress function() {
gotoAndStop(5)

but I need to have a movieclip button (arru_txt) on that frame to be pressed so that the info that goes with the link appears as well. Is there a way to do this?

Apr 16, 2009

I want a prev / next buttons that brings the one of the carousel images to the center of the stage. Then when clicked again, it moves to the next one.

ActionScript 2.0 :: SwapDepths And Player Version - When Moving The Mouse Across The Different Mcs It Occasionally Brings The New Mc To The Top

Jan 4, 2005

I have 4 mcs across my stage (slightly overlaping eachother) and I'm using the following swapDepths script on each of the different mc rollovers...

[Code]...

When I publish with fp6 (AS 2.0) is works great but with fp7 (AS 2.0) the swap depths sometimes acts weird. When moving the mouse across the different mcs it occasionally brings the new mc to the top (like it should) and puts the previous one back to the bottom (when the previous one should stay directly below the new one).

Copying Frames Sometimes Mixes Up Art Work?

I'm sure Adobe is sick of hearing about bugs, but.... one issue that I've noticed with Flash CS4 that was never an issue in CS3 is that when selecting the frames of a complex animation, copying them, and pasting them into another Flash file, often results in some of the artwork getting mixed up.

Copying Actions To A Duplicated Symbol?

Oct 2, 2009

I am an newbie trying to take an existing Flash game and modifying it for my own selfish goals.  I am duplicating symbols and trying to preserve all of their actions so that I can then swap them out for my own symbols.  When I swap, actions are preserved, but I have run out of symbols to swap, so now I am trying to duplicate the remaining symbol so I have more to swap with, but when I duplicate the actions are lost.  I have adjusted the actions code to accommodate more symbols ( or at least I think I have)

AS3 :: Flash - Copying A Loader From One Object To Another

Jul 20, 2010

I have two classes, call them A and B. They both contain a Loader object. In class A I load content into the Loader object.

public class A {
var loader:Loader;
public function A():void {

[Code].....

But that's not what I want. I don't want to manage a bunch of children when I know I only have one child but just want to change its content.

Is there a way to copy/assign a Loader directly? I tried assigning to 'content' but that's read-only. Basically I have an array of Loader objects that all get loaded with images. I then have a single Loader that's on the stage and I want to assign to it images (Loaders) from my array.

Flex :: Copying An Instance Of A Class?

Dec 7, 2010

ObjectUtil.copy is a good technique for copying Objects. But after having a lot of problems using it to copy other classes, I guess it is not the solution I'm after.How would you approach the copying/cloning of instances of a class that you've defined? Maybe defining a function withing the class to copy it?It is cool that most variables are passed by reference in flex, but sometimes is annoying not having control over this (sorry, I'm too used to plain C).

UPDATE: I can't make the ObjectUtil.copy() work with a custom class is... is there a way to copy, by using serialization, a custom class? Did you use successfully a ByteArray copy with a custom class?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Bitmap CopyPixels Not Copying?

I am playing around with an old Zelda: Link's Awakening tile set, and was trying to make an application that will display the current selected tile.

I have attached the .fla file I saved it as a CS2 (Flash 8) file. (I use CS3 and/or CS4 depending on which computer that I am currently using. This one is in CS3)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Copying Arrays Back And Forth?

Jul 20, 2010

I am working on a program with a number of particles that fly around and can collide with each other.I keep all of them in an Array named "particleArray" However, when a collision occurs, I want the two colliding objects to be deleted, and 1 new one formed in their place. I can't do this with just one Array because it affects the order/length of the Array while it's still running through a for loop.

i'll just create a temporary array, make that a copy of the master array, make the changes I need to that one, and then when the master array isn't being used, I can copy the contents of the temp array back into it to be used for the next frame.However, flash doesn't seem to like this. I've tried splice/slice/and concat and get various errors. All the tutorials for copying arrays involve creating a new array and setting it equal, but I need both arrays to be persistent and global, only created once. Do I have to create a for loop to manually copy between the two?

flash hates this code, that I thought would be simple and work:

particleArray = particleArrayRefresh.splice(0); // empty the temp array into the main one.

All similar things i've tried have failed as well. It doesn't seem to want to set an EXISTING array in this way, but I really don't want to use an innefficient for loop to tax each computation cycle more.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Copying The Motion Tween?

Dec 2, 2010

I am attempting to follow a tutorial on [URL] to make a shooter game through flash animation. I am currently at a step where I have made a motion tween and the directions say to copy the motion tween into ActionScript 3.0. I did this by right clicking on the motion tween and selecting "Copy Motion as ActionScript 3.0" (As the directions said to) When I paste my code, however, it looks nothing like the code from the tutorial, even though both are ActionScript 3.0. I am creating a motion tween on a different movie clip (movie clip is named monster, instance name is boy) than they are in the tutorial and I'm sure my dimensions are different, but I can't imagine those two changes would alter the code as much as they are. This is the code from the tutorial:

Code:
import fl.motion.Animator;
import fl.motion.MotionEvent;
var this_xml:XML = <Motion duration="30" xmlns="fl.motion.*" xmlns:geom="flash.geom.*" xmlns:filters="flash.filters.*">

[code]....

I tried simply adding this chunk of code, (the "import fl.motion.MotionEvent;" part at the top of my code, and the rest at the bottom right above the last } ) to the code I get from copying the motion tween. I have tried changing the "this" to "boy" (my instance names), but when I ran the swift I got two compilation errors. One says "Symbol 'monster', Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 40 1120: Access of undefined property boy." and the other says "Symbol 'monster', Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 36 1120:Access of undefined property boy_animator."

I have tried changing the boy_animator to __animFactory_boy, because I see this in the code, but that just changes the compilation error to "Symbol 'monster', Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 40 1119:Access of possibly undefined property parent through a reference with static type fl.motion:AnimatorFactory".

ActionScript 3.0 :: AIR Copying A .app Using File.copyTo

Jun 10, 2010

I have been working on an air app for the last few days. It's pretty much finished except for one thing.

There is an export button on the app that copies both an exe and app. Now this is where the fun starts. When outputting from the Flash IDE, it works fine. The projector .app runs fine. HOWEVER, when running from the installed AIR package, the .app copies fine, but will not run properly, it just tries to open then doesnt do anything. If I manually copy the .app into the folder and then run, its fine.

Im pretty sure its something to do with folder permissions on the new .app, because obviously a .app is just a package folder.

[EDIT] Well i think i have found the reason, it looks like that when the .app is Packaged into the Air file, it corrupts it somehow... now to just find a fix for this heinous Air crime.
