ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Create 'playtoAndStop' Function

May 3, 2011

I was hoping somone good tell me how to create a "playtoAndStop" function. Essentially, what i want the function to do is play from the current point and stop at a designated frame or label. I do not want to have a stop command in the actions panel to serve as the stop as that would interfere with the functionality that this function is intended to serve. If anyone could provide a solution to this function that should have been included with AS3.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Equivalent To A PlayToAndStop?

May 14, 2009

I've got a button on screen and behind it a slideshow rotating images with a fade transition from one to the next. What I'm trying to figure out is when you MouseOver the button... the slideshow stops. When you MouseOut, the slideshow picks up where it left off. Seems simple enough, but I can't seem to get the correct combination of conditional statements to get this to work. Here's what I've got with a couple notes giving my thought process.[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Create On Key Down Function

Dec 26, 2008

I understand that you make an event listener and an event handler, but I do not understand how to create a function were I can hold down a key and the object keeps moving until the key is up.With the following function it only moves it every time I press a certain key. I need to move while the key is held down until released.

stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, jumpEvent);
private function jumpEvent(event:KeyboardEvent):void

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function To Create New MC?

Jan 22, 2011

I want to create a function that can create new MCs. I have a movieClip exporting as "Box" in my library, and I want to add an instance to the stage called "box"... like so:

Code:
function addNewMC (instanceName:String, mcName:MovieClip)
{
instanceName:mcName = new mcName;
addChild(instanceName);
}
addNewMC(box, Box);

but that does not work! I think it's something small, but I'm not sure what. I'm going to use this function for a bunch of different MCs, which is why I want it to by dynamic.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create Function In For Loop?

Apr 6, 2011

How would one go about creating a function inside a for loop that does not have a button action attached to it while still having access to the current index number.

This code was found on senocular:

Code:
var curr_button; for (var i=1; i<=3; i++){
curr_button = this["button"+i];
curr_button.num = i;

[Code]....

This is all great however i would like the functions to just be regular old functions, not button actions (onPress), is this possible?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A Function That Will Add An Object To The Map (stage)?

Oct 13, 2010

I've begun development on a isometric game, and have what I thought to be the hard part out of the way - the map generation from external files, screen-to-isometric conversions, etc. However I'm getting stumped on the "easy" stuff.Basically what I'm trying to do is this. Create a function that will add an object to the map (stage), then add an eventlistener so when it's clicked on, it gets added to the player's inventory. Lets take this sample code:

Code:
public function addObjectToWorld(o:IsoObject):void {
// ...code to add it to the world

AS :: Professional - Create Delay Before Tween Or Function?

Jun 25, 2010

I have a number of cases where I have a tween happening in ActionScript, but I would like it to happen after a delay from the event that triggers it. At the moment I'm creating this delay by having a tween that does nothing (eg. an "_x" tween for which the start and end points are the same) and then using tween1.onMotionFinished = function(){to create the one I really want. Is there a way to create this delay more neatly?

Php :: Create Date-dependant Function In Flash?

May 7, 2011

So here goes my stackoverflow debut... (And I tried searching and reading thru a lot of posts (php flash date) before asking this)I would like to make an swf that will find out what date it is and do sometinhg correspondingly. Eg. go to a specific frame or load a movieClip.I would also like to avoid the Actionscript "Date Class" because I need to feel fairly certain that my end user will see the swf of the day not of his/her local date-setting.So I'm thinking to somehow bring in php with 'echo date' inside the swf and then have the result create a goto-(or load-)command.

To make matters worse I have to rely only on code within the swf using ActionScript2 (in CS4 or 5). I am not able to publish any outside php (or any other code for that matter) so everything must be done internally. Only swf has to work regardless of server (I am expecting the server will work with php)So I hope some gurus here will be able to tell me:1. If this is possible2. How I make the date thing happen in Flash3. And how I somehow grab the date as a variable (?) and make that determine some action.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Button Listener Outside An Instance Function?

May 29, 2010

I have a set of thumbnails in a "gallery" class calling a "feature" class that's presents/displays the associated content.

I'm stuck with a runtime problem where I have a thumbnail button calling a "feature" class. This "feature" class contains a function with an instance of a button listener. So everytime I call this function it creates a duplicate instance of this listener. - BAD

I would like to move this addListener instance out of the function in the "feature" class so it doens't multiply instances every time it's called by the thumbnail.

However, when I take the listener instance and it's function included out of the function in the "feature" class being called it can't access other functions in the "feature" class.

Is there a simple way around this so I can have button listeners in a class but not added every time the containing class is being called? Should I have these buttons in a separate class that just extends from the "feature" class?

Actionscript 3 :: Create A Subclass That Takes In Different Parameters For The Same Function Name?

Nov 1, 2011

So I have made this simple interface:

package{
public interface GraphADT{
function addNode(newNode:Node):Boolean;[code]........

Having this setup here is giving me errors, namely:

1144: Interface method addNode in namespace GraphADT is implemented with an incompatible signature in class AdjacancyListGraph.

Upon closer inspection it was apparent that AS3 doesn't like the different parameter types from the different Graph classes newNode:Node from Graph , and newNode:AwareNode from AdjacancyListGraph

However I don't understand why that would be a problem since AwareNode is a subClass of Node.Is there any way I can make my code work, while keeping the integrity of the code?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create Different Variable Types From Single Function?

This is hard to describe in a sentence, so i'll write some false code: (with incorrect syntax, of course)[code]...

Is it possible to do something like this, where I pass the name of the data Type that I want it to create and it does it within the function? And I know that with this simple example it isn't necessary to do it this way, but in the full program this would save some time and make the code more efficient.
