ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Executes When An Instance In The Movieclip Is Clicked?
Aug 16, 2010
I'm so getting confused with this,So i'm making a card game, and i'm just on the beginning of it. I've already added the objects on the stage and stored them on an array.now i made a function that when it executes the .x and .y properties of these cards would change. this is what i did, but nothing seems to happen.the array MyCards contain movieclip objects not strings and also, the function executes when an instance in the movieclip is clicked
ActionScript Code:
distCards(MyCards);
function distCards(cards:Array):void {
for (var i:int=0;i<cards.length ;i++) {
[Code]...

Code:

MovieClip.prototype.easeX = function( to:Number , speed:Number , endF:Function ,
[Code]....
otherFunction() runs as soon as the mouse over happens and not after the ease finishes as I would like it to.

I create a new MovieClip, call it Somehow, and link it to the name "MyClip", for example.[code]...
They must be MovieClips, because the functions not only response with hello, like in the example.
So I want to create the Clip copies and call the functions in one step. This example is also not working when i put it inside of a onLoad, or onEnterFrame and so on.

I am trying to sort out someone else's project and am not used to AS2. There are nine people in a folder called peeps. I want to load a swf into a modal on the page based on the instance name of the button clicked on. How do I get the instance name? I put ? around where the selector should go, not sure what should be there.
Code:
peeps.?button?.onRelease = function() {
var peepName = this._name;
trace(peepName);
getURL('javascript:loadVid(cmsflash/'+peepName+'.swf);');
};

I am importing multiple class instances into my document class. They are buttons that I want to load larger images when clicked. The problem I have is that I don't know how to tell class instance was clicked to load the appropriate larger image.
this is how I am importing the buttons:
ActionScript Code:
package {
public class DocumentClass extends MovieClip {
private var myProj:Content;
[Code]....
I worked with trying to assign myProj.name but I understand in AS3 that isn't the best way to go about this. I also worked with trying to populate an array but I wasn't sure how to get the addEventListener to work when one of the class instances in the array was clicked.

I am a super noob at actionscript. And I want my button to open a movieclip and then close the movieclip when clicked on again. I have no idea what to add after that here is the code I have for the button so far.....this button opens it.
on(release){
this.linemc5.gotoAndPlay("ear");
}
and this is another button I made that can close it, but I want it to be in the same button rather than seperate.
on(release){
this.linemc5.gotoAndPlay("earclose");
}

I am using the loader class to load an external swf and attach it to an empty movieclip, the final step follows:
// function loadComplete(e:Event):void {
mc_launch.addChild(gLoader);
MovieClip(gLoader.content).gotoAndPlay("start");}
When navigating away from the movie clip, it's dumped as follows:
MovieClip(gLoader.content).closeAllStreams();gLoader.unload();
The linked swf has two important frames in the beginning. The first frame is labeled "hold" and has the following:
var gSC:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
var gSCBusy:Boolean = false;var gSlideIndex:Number = 0;
var gAudioPosition:Number = 0;
var gPlayList:Array = ["start","slide01","slide02"]
var gAudioList:Array = ["intro.mp3","",""]
var gRunMode:String = Capabilities.playerType;stop();
The fifth frame is labled "start" and the singing and dancing begins from there. The stop(); function in the first frame is used to prevent the loading swf from executing before its 100% downloaded (I had some early trouble where the music would start before the screen assets were in place). My problem: This works perfectly the first time the linked swf is downloaded and attached, however, if you navigate away and then back I get the error "gSlideIndex NAN" which indicates to me that the first frame in the linked swf is not executed on subsequent attachments, the playhead jumps straight to "start" and my globals are never declared. Why would a linked swf execute frame 1 the first time it's attached to mc_launch but not the second?

I have a situation where, upon loading my swf, I add an event listener to the stage to listen for keyboard commands. One of them is to listen for the spacebar, and if it is pressed, it should play a movie. The problem is, that movie is not loaded until later on, depending other user interactions, therefore, until it is loaded, the reference to it would be undefined.
But if I wait and add the listener for key commands only when the movie is loaded, then I can't utilize the listener for other keyboard commands, like RIGHT or LEFT, which are the buttons which get you to the movie in the first place. Is there a way to add a conditional or something to prevent that code from being executed if the video is not defined yet? Here's my code:

I'm using the script below for a Flash (CS3 and AS2) presentation so the client can play/stop and rewind/forward the movie with the keyboard.
It works perfectly when I go "Control >>> Test Movie" but when I publish the movie as a Projector file nothing happens when I hit the relevant keys.
Also, the same thing happens if I open the SWF outside of Flash from it's local folder.
Code:
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var nCheckPoint:Number = 0;
var aCheckPoints:Array = new Array();
aCheckPoints.push( { sScene:"Scene 1", nFrame:10 } );

Is there a way to create an if statement that executes two different loops?
For example, If I was trying to make game with a button that when clicked creates random objects falling down and when the objects are destroyed, creates random objects floating up. I haven't seen anything online, but I'm wondering if anyone know. Is it possible or should I just create two different listeners?

I need an event handler that executes only once when the root movie has loaded. If I later on return to the first frame that holds the script it should not execute again.
something like "when_root_has_loaded = function(){ some code};

I am new to flash. I can't seem to decifer the script examples in the help files. After a lot of trial and error the following codes works great. It delays playback on the video for the proper amount of time. The only problem is when the playback loops (like it should) the codes executes again. I only want to execute the code the first time thru.

I have an on(press) command that refreshes advertisements on an HTML page that my .swf is embedded in. When a user clicks on buttons that have the script, the advertisements refresh. I have a page that features a Slideshow Pro slideshow. Because this is a component, I am unable to put this script on the buttons in the slideshow. I am hoping instead, to have the script automatically run every 10-20 seconds. I am using actionscript 2.0 in a Flash CS3 file. Here is the code on the button:

If I change the value of a variable that two different classes can see (in a custom global class, for instance), and then immediately dispatch an event that the other class is listening for, will tracing that variable in the listening class reflect the variable's new value? In other words, does code that executes in another class that's called from a dispatched event elsewhere still run procedurally, or is there some sort of asynchronous thing going on, where the class that dispatched continues on to the next line of code in its own class without regard for what may or may not happen in the other class?

I'm writing an app where I want to know which, of an unspecified set of buttons, the user is clicking.The actual location of buttons determined by previous user actions, so I cant use information like mouseX.You can see from the code the way I'm attacking this - trying to access the button based on its position in the display list of a container. Unfortunately this has always led to type coercion errors 0 - AS can't see that e.target is a DisplayObject.se has solved this problem.
ActionScript Code:

I have box mc and a textbox called "test" and I have a sentence in there saying trace("word")
how would I make the sentence become the function when box clicked? Like when box clicked it traces since the sentence has the code... like for example ...
box.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, try)
function try(event:Event)
{
var newString:String=test.text
}
is it the function that has to be changed (text:String)?? Id like the textbox to contain/execute the code not "hardcoded".

My document class is Controller It's constructor addChilds an instance of MenuScreen
MenuScreen has 1 button called 'gallery'. Clicking on it removes the MenuScreen from the document class and adds galleryScreen to the Document class.
After the galleryScreen becomes a child of the document class I add a keyevent listener like so:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownHandler);
Here's a snippet of keyDownHandler:
ActionScript Code:
public function keyDownHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void{
[Code]....
The Problem is: 1) I'm pressing LEFT arrow key like mad and nothing happens UNTIL I left click anywhere on the screen, THEN keyDownHandler works.
