ActionScript 3.0 :: KeepCreating Function Creates A Random Shape On The Stage?
Jul 30, 2009
How would I make it if I wanted a function (that happens to run on event MouseEvent. MOUSE_DOWN)to run while mouse is down, not just once. For example, I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, keepCreating);
My keepCreating function creates a random shape on the stage. But since it runs once during mouse_down, only one shape is created until you activate mouse_down again (by lifting the mouse button and pressing down again).
What I want it to do is keep creating shapes over and over again, instead of creating one shape per mouse_down.

I am trying to make a so called pixel effect in witch I want to make a shape only from pixels that are positioned in some random place on the stage. And all these pixels move to a certain point and create that shape. I've been looking into BitmapData Class but I don't now if that is the best way to do it.

The SWF in question is on this page: [URL]
The problem arises in the reflection. It's a duplicate MC of the main text. Once the faces spin to show letters, green boxes of text appear on top of the letters. In the reflection, once these boxes disappear the letters that were behind them do too.

I'm having problems with deleting what a variable creates on stage!I have a random image loader as seen below.This creates a random image from the list I give it (only 4 in this example) and puts that picture on the stage.[code]Depending on the image the right or left door is the correct door (tr is the left doors name).The code below works fine, it even inserts the _whatPicture randomly again but the problem is the new picture overlaps the old picture, I can't figure out what to type so it will delete / remove the first _image, so that the new image is the only one there.[code]

ActionScript Code:
private function drawMap(tile1:DisplayObject, tile2:DisplayObject):void
{
var _tile1 = tile1;
[Code].....
The idea behind this is to store custom sprites in an array and then feed the array to the drawMap function, which would use the sprites from the array to draw a map.

I have a loop which creates a bunch of movieclips and sets them on the stage.As I create each one I attatch an eventListener to it.My problem is that when the eventListener fires, the function it calls always works on the first mc added to the stage, not the one that fired the listener.How do I fix this?Here's a bit of the code:
Code: Select allfor (var i:int=0;i<numOfItems;i++) {
item = new Item();

I am trying to make a random shape, I want each different point to draw a line to every other point, which I know this won't do yet even if it worked the way that I wanted. But, at the moment, my code does nothing. It is supposed to draw a line from from the first value in the point array to the second value in it to the third value in it.
Here's my code:
Code:
onLoad = function() {
drawIt(10);
}
function drawIt(numberOfPoints) {

I need to have a shape (black rectangle) that will cover the stage. It should resize with the stage when needed. I'm trying it with the following code, but when it's resizing, there is a clipping effect that is visible and it is not fluid. How can I prevent this?
Code:
Select all
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
var blinder:Shape = new Shape();
[Code] ......

I have a question regarding TweenMax and the way it tweens MovieClips. Here is what I have.
1. I have a rectangle movie clip on stage (width:20, height:20). When you click it, it expands (to width:650, height:350) and gets a 3-d function attached so it reacts to mouseXY position (like Lees 3-d photo tutorial). This part works fine.
2. I click it again and it retracts to its original small size (width:20, height:20). This also seems to work fine.
Problem: When I click it again it expands (to width:650, height:350), but when the 3-d function gets added it starts tween all weirdly shape and not the way it is intended.Here is my class
Code: Select allpackage
{
import flash.display.Sprite;[code].........

I have a relatively simple drag and drop function. When the target is hit, the shape stays on it. Otherwise, it goes back to its original place.
ActionScript Code:
square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
square_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.startDrag(true);
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
[Code] .....
The slide function is supposed to bring the shape back to its origin (passx and passy are the coordinates), through an Enterframe event. It works fine, but it only works once. And if I drop the shape, if I pick it up again, it's impossible to "cancel" this action (which means the shape keeps going back to the origin). I tried removeEventListener but no luck.

I've been trying to simply get random movement on a MC on my stage.
Most of the tutorials I come across deliver jittery motion, not smooth eased motion.
Also, I'm trying this script found here: [URL]
The random motion looks great! .... but I can't stop the MC from moving to the top left of my stage. The script isn't setup to restrict the motion within a given area on the stage. I tried modifying it, got nowhere!

I've got an MC that walks a path, this path is tweened, not scripted. Now this MC is in my library, I want this MC to spawn on the stage(random) and unload it once it is finished. If possible, I want to have multiple of this single MC on stage at the same time. And finally I want all of them to spawn at the same coordinates.
