ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Make Movieclips And Class Files
Sep 30, 2009
How would you go about accessing a movieclip inside another movieclip using a class file?ould you have to export every single part of a movieclip? Can it be done by just exporting the main movieclip?

I have two SWF-Movies. One is exported into eht other as Child.Can I instance the Objects of the two libraries in all places, where ActionScript is possible? (In Keyframes of the MovieClips and in external class definitions.)

I have some files in my src directory, some are .class files (Java class files) and some are .properties files, when I create the Adobe air native installer these files are not included. Why is that? How can I work around that?
Also it excludes .mxml files, but that's good. I'm sure that's related, how to change what it includes or excludes?

Assume I know practically nothing about AS3! I'm using Flash Pro CS5. I'm trying to reassociate a flash file I've been given with its external assets and classes. In the library I have a movieclip with linkage to a class called 'StaticMap' using the base class 'flash.display.MovieClip'. am I missing a custom class file called 'StaticMap.as' that was originally located in the same folder as the fla, or is this a generic class accessible to all movieClips from within Flash?

I'm working on making a pretty chunky game engine for games I plan on making, but I was wondering if you make external AS files unopenable such as .lib files, so that if I give it to a friend that wants to use it, he/she cannot change my code. Is there anyway to make external AS files unopenable? Also, obfuscation isn't an option for this problem as it only stops the people who hack the finished product, not stopping people who have access to the actual files.

I've got an external .as file in the same folder as my flash file. In the process of writing the code, whenever I make a change and then test the movie, the flash movie is obviously still looking at the OLD information. I tried using the "Delete ASO Files" on the menu, to no avail.I can' find these ASO files anywhere on mycomputer.Aha! I tried something else. I quit flash,restarted and ran the same script with no changes. It returned the data correctly, but then gave me this unpleasant message:256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.This is probably an infinite loop.Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.There are no loops of any kind in the code, which is below.
//This is the Person.as file:
class Person { public var HomName:String = "unknown"; public var HomEmail:String = "unknown"; public var HomPhone:String = "unknown"; public var HomSaveFreq:Number = 0;

For this flash application I'm building, it would be nice to have people upload their custom graphics and animations so my application can load them in run-time. Is it possible to load a GIF file as a MovieClip that contains all frames in that GIF file? I want this to be as dynamic as possible, like the user tells my application the URL to a XML file that has all information about the graphics he wants to use, so that my application can download those graphics.

I am having problems copying directories of movieclips from one flash file to another. They appear to be fine until I save it, then when they are reloaded they are missing a parent movie clip, and all of the children are blank.

I want to know how to make class instances into listeners and broadcasters, from inside each class. Here is what I am trying specifically... part of the Proj class... (projectiles, as a matter of fact)
Code:
private function listen():Void {
u.register(this);
onUpdate = function(){
step(); // a function I have which makes the projectile move (not shown)
}
}
where "u" is another class, the Updater class with this code...
Code:
class Updater {
// const. --- make this a broadcaster
public function Updater(){
[code]....
PS: What is the syntax for using AS2 code tags instead of just "[CODE|"?

I have built a basic preloader that runs in my document class. I'm having trouble with it.I'm guessing its due to what a class can and can not access from the stage?theres 2 problems. the first is that I cant change the keyframe the stage is on from the class. the second is im getting an error 1009 if I comment that out.
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip

I am building an image gallery which has a very simple design. The gallery has a button area, where the buttons are movieclips, and an area where there are images, which are also movieclips.I am using flash CS3, AS3.Each time I use an eventlistener to tween the alpha value of each image (the brightness) when the button movieclip is pressed, I must call a command to reduce the value of every OTHER image that is in my gallery as well as increase the alpha value of the single image I want.This means I have a lot of typing and I was wondering if there was an easier way to manage my movieclips, such as to use the Array class or the Object class. However I can not seem to on the subject on adding a movieclip instance name and its property to a class that could store the data, or the reasonable command to select/omit other movieclips

I have created an external class for a particular movieclip and I would like to link a duplicated version of this movieclip to the same class file.
Problem is I can't seem to do it. Even if I state the class as the BASE class of the new movieclip and create another random class name for it.
Is there a way I can get around this so I can assign my duplicated clip the same class name ??

I have externalized the actionscript code of a movieclip into a separate class files.This movieclip requires references to some other clips on the stage. What I am currently doing to reference those clips is by using Movieclip(this.parent).otherclip but somehow that feels wrong.Is there a better way to pass in the required references into a class extending from Movieclip inside of the constructor? Or what is the recommended pattern here?

I have two MovieClip symbols in my library and I want them to share the same class, but Flash doesn't allow me to assign the same class to any two different MC symbols, so instead I created two bogus classes which extend the class I wished to share initially.
So having two MC symbols defined by 2 different classes extending a different class allows me to share the same piece of code.
My Question: is there a better was to share a class between 2 or more different library symbols?

how to target MovieClips from a class. If I have a MovieClip on the stage named recMc and I want to manipulate it using a class, I know that if I attach my class in the Document Class field in my .fla file and then just do something like this... it works
- class and fla are in the same folder -
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
[Code]....
how to target this object without attaching the class to the Document class?

I'm having a lot of trouble understanding a certain thing.I'm creating a child of a symbol in my 'main' class.[code]I have no idea how to access 'player' from a seperate class? I would like to change x and y coords from a seperate class. However when I use code like 'player.x = player.x + 2' i get the error message Line 17 1120: Access of undefined property player.I guess in the most simple words, I do not know how to access symbols or their children from a class that is not the document class.[code]Basically I just am curious as to why I can't simply access these items from another class?

I'm having a problem where I can't make an instance of a class in one class like I can in other classes all in the same package. When I call the update function from another class it doesn't work. I traced the xPos of the instance of the class I was talking about and I get zero, but that is incorrect so I'm thinking it's the above problem. If anyone knows what the problem is please tell. Here's my code:

I just want different-looking movieclips to move in the same way so that I will only have to edit one file if I want to change their behavior, instead of copying the class file and renaming each one, and then I would have to edit the builder function name and class name inside each one as well, even though it would do the same thing.

I would really like a class that i can use to load all my movieclips from.I have 100's of external swfs - and i want to load them to stage from one class - as they are requested.I did manage to do it one way, to get access to the stage i did this:
Actionscript Code:
private var _stage:Stage;
and in the constructor code, just did:[code]...........
how to actually load the swfs, what i'm really looking for is a way to use addChild to the stage from within my class.

I am able to dynamically create an object on the stage with a function, but I am at a loss for how to access and manipulate the properties of that object from my Main Class.
in my Main Class I have:
ActionScript Code:
NLP_addChild.addObject(stage)
// NLP_addChild is the other class addObject() is the function
in NLP_addChild Class appears the following:
ActionScript Code:
public static function addObject(stage:Stage)
{
var myCircle:MovieClip = new circle()
[code]....
myCircle displays correctly on the stage, myCircle is correctly assigned an x of 300. But myCircle x property cannot be assigned from my main class.

i want to create and manage 2 movieclips inside a single class. i just wrote a simple setup for this and i ran into a problem:i create 2 movieclips and want them to be displayed on stage.but only the second movieclip is actually displayed and the first one is just not visible. when i switch the order in which the movieclips are created i see the one being created last. so i totally dont know what to do here. since i am very new to flash i might be missing out on something obvious.here is my class:
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I've been coding actionscript poorly for about 5 years now. I'm actually pretty proficient at sloppy code. Well, now with the advent of AS3, I have to get everything right. So now it's all from scratch.
I have Lee Brimelow's example of the Timer class:
Code: Select all// We need to import the utils package
import flash.utils.*;
// Create a new Timer object with a delay of 500 ms
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(500);
[Code]....
However, I have no idea how to connect this to a movieclip without re-building the thing over and over again with a new instance name inside the function. This is horribly redundant, something I got used to using setInterval, and I want to break that habit.

I have been able to draw rudimentary shapes on the main timeline by importing this class on the main timeline (first frame) and plugging in the requisite parameters.[code]When I have created movieclips without actionscript, then attached AS 2 classes to them I can manipulate them. If there is not a way that I can manipulate AS-generated clips on the main timeline, is this doable from within the class?
