ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Current Label In An Array?
Jul 29, 2011
I have six movieclip images ( nested in the movieclip "mainInsight") in an array. I am using event.currentTarget to trigger MouseEvent.CLICK event that reacts to a parallel array. The parallel array, uses current Labels, to go to the frame labels in the main movieclip "mainInsight". It's supposed to scale up the image that is clicked, by gouing to a certain label with tween functions, and scale down the others. My current code returns this error:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label TheCompetition not found in scene Scene 1.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
at tweenTestFinalTwo_fla::MainTimeline/clickHandler()

I am trying to get the Frame labels from a movie clip in AS2. I know you can go to any frame using gotoAndPlay , or gotoAndStop using frame names but now i am trying to get them... I have just being able to get the current frame number, does any one knows how to get the current frame name ? , where does this name is stored? know AS3 has a property called currentLabel or something like that, is there any thing similar in AS
I tried this code but doesnt work properly, anyone has a solution? i need to load different swfs in the same MC depending on the frame, i have placed the simple loadmovie code in each frame with the different swfs and it works but i would prefer to keep the code in 1 frame. This would be even better if using labels instead of frames.
I have a 10 frame flash movie. One of these frames has the label "hide". Is there a way to check whether I am on the frame "hide" or not? Ofcourse I know how to read the property _currentframe but is there a way to (which will give me a string)?
For the life of me I can't figure out how to trace out the current label in my movie's main timeline. This is in AS3. I have a button on stage that spans the timeline of the movie. It detects keypresses. I want to trace the current frame label that the play head is on.
[Code].....
I get "_level0" for this...and undefined for the rest. What am I doing wrong here?
I have a sprite loaded as an array, and that array has an event listener for a function. say that function is called funct1. in funct1, i want to be able to grab the index of the array and load it into a variable for future functions and what not. how would i go about this?
When i try to add label components through a array to a single frame only the last one that was added shows up. Then if i was to comment out the 2nd array of labels. the first one will show.
Code:
Exchangelist = new XML (); Exchangelist.ignoreWhite = true; stop() Exchangelist.onLoad = function (success) { if (success) { _global.NextNum = 0; _global.txt_ExchangeNumber = []; _global.txt_ExchangeID = []; _global.txt_ExchangeName = []; [code].....
I'm getting the "Label must be a simple identifier" when trying to add to my arraywhy?
// var roundOne: set outside of function on main timeline // var allRoundWinners:Array ; is declared outside of the function on main timeline // both reside where all the code is created.. frame 1 -> layer "actions".
I think that arrays are probably one of the more powerful tools available in flash,
mc with instance name but0
inside mc is a text box var name label , code is [AS]label = _name;[/AS]
mc on main timeline code in frame 1 is:
subjects = new Array("page1","page2","page4","page4","page5") butHeight = but0._height+5; butNumber = subjects.length[code]....
What this code does is produce 5 buttons appearing one after the other, like a cascade effect, so far so good, I then want to insert the array elements into text box label, but all I get is subject, subject1, subject2 and so on.So, what do I need to do so that my buttons are called page1, page2 and so on.
I need to create an array inside a movieclip, so: var Container:MovieClip = new Movieclip; Then how do I make an array inside of the that movieclip. I've tried Container.mCONTENT:Array = []; But I get "Label must be a simple identifier"
Is it possible to change a frame label within a gotoAndStop('label') with the parameters in a function?I'm playing around with updating code as I learn more and more techniques, and at the moment the code is a basic click-a-button to select the object shape, and on press the button disappears:
// Change the object into a circle. circle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(circle_btn,circle);}); // Change the object into a square. square_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,function(){changeShape_fun(square_btn,square);});
[code]....
However I can't/don't seem to know how to change a frame label through function parameters, or if what I'm trying to do is even possible.Also to note, while I'm all ears for any more efficient ways of doing what I'm trying to do, I would still like to know how/if you can change frame labels through function parmeters.
I've got two different domains and both of them direct to the same website. This website has a menu on top made in Flash (the rest is HTML, so the page must be reloaded everytime I click on an option or I need new content).
But this Flash movie has to show a different animation depending on the URL.
What can I do to find out the current URL in ActionScript?
how can I get the current frame of a MovieClip.It's an animation that just loops over and over when its opened with ctrl+enter.On the stage its just one layer and one frame, but when it's double clicked, it has its own timeline with 20 frames.
Actionscript Code: //what i had but it shows frame 1trace(myMovieClipInstance.currentFrame);
display the current frame when it changes. So something with a while loop. Like while the movie clip is playing, display the current frame.
I am not sure what to datatype my currentSWF var. What is that? function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event) { var currentSWF = loadEvent.currentTarget.content; swfHolderMC.addChild(currentSWF); }
I have this code within the flash to load in the XML file. A list of buttons is generated from the XML list. How do I find out which is the current 'item' selected, and then how to select the next 'item' from the XML list
myXML = new XML();myXML.ignoreWhite = true;myXML.load("items.xml");myXML.onLoad = function(_status) {if (_status) {var clientList:Array = [];var clientRegistry:Object = {};tempxml = myXML.firstChild.childNodes;var space = 10; for (var i = 0; i<tempxml.length; i++) {var clientData:Object = {};var item = all_items.list_mc.attachMovie("clip", "clip"+i, i);
I'm trying to get the current unix timestamp in AS3 via:
var date:Date = new Date(); var unix:int = date.time; trace(unix);
For some reason I get:
2775219874
But when I use time() in PHP around the same time, I get:
1321330282
I don't understand? I could of course request the timestamp from PHP via URLLoader, but I'd rather get it working properly without needing this if possible.
I am new to AS3 and I have one task in which I have to read browser current url through actionscript.For example if some xyz website is using my flash player then I should be able to get that xyz website url and store it in our reporting database to get an idea about how many website are using our flash player.
I'm building an application that is simulair to a realtime world clock. I want to be able to show the current day of the year and the current second of the year. Based on those variables I will calculate realtime data basd on data that I will put into the application monthly. I have written a script, but it's not very accurate. I think the time part of the script is slipping for some reason. Plus I have to account for leap years.
