Is there any possibility to load the elements of an Array individually on stage with TweenMax? I mean to be loaded individually with a delay for ex. 3 sec each?
View 1 RepliesI'm making a mockup for a client and I need to Load the .swf with the exact stage size so the graphic elements do not float outside the loaded movies stage area. [URL]Basic load code I'm using...

I have a very simple XML doc that as3 outputs via dynamic textfields. Once loaded, how would I calculate the total width of the array objects on stage? Keeping in mind that the textfields stack horizontally.

Code:
var widthValue:Number;
var spacer:Number = 10;
var startPos:Number = 0;

I have built an array of colors that I want to assign to clips on stage but there is something missing in a script and I'm stuck:

Does one normally use some sort of wrapper object to do so?
For example, if I have an array with 10 elements (for example, images that are gonna be linked), I can loop through the array and add them to stage with:
myArray[i].x = i * myArrayElement.width;
What if I wanted to position all of the elements yet keep them in the same positions relative to each other.
Can you do so with an array, I gather the answer is no. So if that's right, do people throw an Array into another object and the use that objects x property?
I have 3 arrays, each containing a random number of elements.
Lets say: array1(), array2(), array3()
I want to display information from 6 array elements on my stage, ideally 2 elements from each array. However, as the arrays may contain more or less than 2 elements, if an array has < 2, I'd like to make up for it if the other arrays have > 2 by showing extra from those arrays instead. As evenly as possible. I'd like to know at the end how many elements of each array to add to the stage (Maximum of 6 altogether).i.e.If we say array1.length() is 3, array2.length() is 1, and array3.length() is 1 - then I'd like it to display 3 from array1, and 1 from the other two arrays.If we say array1.length() is 0, array2.length() is 4, and array3.length() is 5 - then I'd like it to display 3 from each of array2, and array3.So as to get 6 wherever possible, and spread them out evenly wherever possible.
does anyone know how to shift all the array elements by one or more without deleting the array itself?
Something like rotating the array:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6
I've been trying to move array elements from one array to another using the push method. The problem is that the element pushed should any longer be on the first array where it was taken from. That's where i'm stuck..

View 15 RepliesIf I am a subclass of an Array, how do I access an element?
class ArrayOfFoo extends Array
{
public function getFooAt(anIndex : int) : Foo
{
return this[anIndex] as Foo; // <---- looks for an object attribute (named "0", for example)
}
}
I could wrap an array instead of subclassing it, however lacking a universal IArray interface, that is less than useful for standard and custom functions expecting an Array.
How do you empty an array. I want the array complete empty, so the array length =0. I have tried this code, but that doesn�t take away all elements in an array, just a few.
for (i=0; i<myArray.length; i++) {
myArray.pop();
}
What is the easiest way to let a variable refer to all the elements in an array?

I'm making a game where you move your avatar around the screen, grab pickups, and avoid enemies. The avatar and enemies are movie clips containing animations. When you collide with an enemy, his movie clip plays a quick animation. All of which is working fine. But what would be the best way to bring in new enemies (which will be different) when a new level starts?
Should I try putting the enemy movie clips inside empty holder movie clips, then swapping them with addChild? So far I haven't been able to get that working. Would swapping external SWFs into empty clips be better (which I'm reluctant to do, since the code that triggers the movie clip animation on collision is working well)? Is there a way to use normal mc's without holder clips, clear them from the stage, and create new ones? Or, is there a way to simply put all the enemy animations on different layers in a movie clip timeline, and switch them by controlling the layer visibility?

View 2 RepliesI´m trying to order elements of an array. When the dates come from dynamics text it´s no problem, bad when come from input text the dates are treated like strings and it´s impossible to order correctly, because 15 is considered less than 3. In both cases I can operate correctly whit this dates like numbers.How is possible to order this dates from input text, like numbers?

I'm writing an application in Flex / ActionScript and have a number of class member variables of type Array storing data. My question is: what's the "best" way to clear out an Array object? I noticed the ArrayCollection class has a function removeAll() which does this, but the basic Array class does not. Some possibilities I've considered are:
Iterating through the array, calling pop or shift on each element
Setting the array length to 0
Setting the member variable to a "new Array()" or "[]"
var count:uint = 0;
var textInputs:Array /* of TextInputs */ = [];
for(var i:String in columnsData){
[Code]....
here how can i access the first, second of Array of textinputs in the form of string or any thing to further proceed

I have one array with many elements inside.
ActionScript Code:
var all_id:Array = new Array ["56","42","35","64"];
I also have one cd id, which is dynamically created.Im trying to create a function, which checks if the cd id matches any of the IDs of the array.
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0; i<all_id.length;i++){
if(all_id[i] == id){
trace("ID MATCH");
[code]....
My problem is that - because I'm looping through the elements, I get several traces.Is there a way to get a result if any element matches?

I can set them up and even partially delete items (there value is replaced with "undefined") in the array but not thier index. What i want to accomplish is to have a number of words in array that are randomly chosen one at a time and only one time each on the press of a btn.
So if the array contains the words; the, go, see, a
The first press of the button might choose the word "the". Which would remove it from the list and the next press of the button would randomly choose one of the remaining words; go, see, a.
I have an array myArray:Array = [no1_mc, no2_mc,no5_mc];I have a variable imageNumber:Number which gets values from 1 - 5 or 5 - 1 depending if next_mc or prev_mc is clicked.Now, next_mc will load a next image and prev_mc will load prev image.What i want is that depending on the value of the variable imageNumber i want to toggle the alpha of the movieClips inside the array myArray.So if imageNumber = 3, then no3_mc.alpha = 1 while the remaining mc's alpha = 0.5.
