In As2 i was used to just being able to put for example: Apple = House
and when i typed Apple As2 would see it as House, im trying that in As3 and it says "Undefined Property" which is obvious but,how would i be able to do this in As3? could i possibley make this a Variable? if so which do i use kind of variable do i use? Example: :Number:Boolean etc
we have this variable from the internet, val(0), in a dynamic text field we can see a digit from this variable. but when we use this variable in actionscript and test it with trace, the variable shows as undefined.how can we make this work without it coming up as undefined??
View 12 RepliesI created a new slideshow in flash CS3 - AS3 but my code that I had for xml caching is barking at me and I am not sure what to do. The output window shows access to undefined property root.

I'm currently trying to make a class that changes the mouse cursor. I made it in a new class so that I can call it again whenever I needed it, but there are some errors and I don't know how to solve it. The class filename is Cursor. This class is not linked with the fla file.
Here's the ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Cursor extends MovieClip {
public function Cursor()
[Code] .....
This class will just let me type Cursor.makeCursor(cursorMovieClip); and the cursor will change. The problem is that Flash does not recognize "addChild" and "stage". Is it because the class isn't connected to the fla? Or do I need to import some stuff in? Also, flash does not recognize "obj" in the code line
ActionScript Code:
var cursor:MovieClip = new obj;
I'm trying to change a static variable in the class's constructor. At the start I have:
public static var mainReference:Main;
public static var timerReference:Timer;
public var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
This is so my static functions can access main and timer. At Main's constructor I have:
mainReference = this;
timerReference = timer;
The problem is, the first gives no error when I compile it, but the second tells me Access of undefined property (timerReference).
I'm trying to write a dollar recognizer in Flash Builder. actionscript and mxml, and I''m getting this error on the line "myRec.addTemplate..." in the code below:

import flash.display.Shape;

It seems that with as3, the error compiler is just waiting to get you.I have a function that loads in an external swf. Which swf depends on which button they click. So, it could be pic1.swf, pic2.swf, pic3.swf, etc.
function loadMovie(){
my_mc.addChild(my_Loader);
addChild(my_mc);[code].........
When i test, I get "error: access to undefined property myVariable.
im having problems getting some as3 generated (not drawn on stage) movie clips moving across the screen.
Code:
package {
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;

I have a swf file that loads other swf files with an XML file, which are populated by external text on the fly.
Everything works perfectly on my computer. And it all worked perfectly on a previous website.
Now, for some reason, when I load these onto my website, the text fields show 'Undefined'.[code]...

For some reason I keep getting "name_text" "phone_text" and all other variable as Undefined property". The input box is in TLF text with the instance name labeled correctly. I've used this script before and it worked fine, why won't it work again?
I know there are a number of posts dealing with this issue. But, I'm still not understanding it.I keep getting a "1120: Access of undefined property CSSloader." in the following script:
package as3.comp{
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;

This is the code (simple):
var timer:Timer = new Timer(2000, 1);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.Timer, onTimer);
timer.start();

I have an app where I am wanting to use some movieclips when clicked on to remove the current movieclip and add a new movieclip. My problem seems to be that whenever I refer to the homeArtist_mc movieclip I get an error.
For example on line 50 in my actionscript I have
homeArtist_mc.buttonMode = true;
And I get this error
1120: access of undefined property homeArtist_mc.

I have created a game that works fine when publish it and run the swf. However, I have a short animated piece that runs and uses a loader to load the game.swf file when the animation is complete. Once I run the animated piece with the loader all of my instances break because it is looking for myLoader.instanceName. Is there any way that i can load the external swf without having to go into the game.as file and recreate all the instance names?
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.load(new URLRequest(game.swf));
[code].....
i keep getting that error and cannot figure why. This is my code:
Code:
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.ui.Keyboard;

I am working on a piece of code and I am getting bizar Access of undefined property name errors. I am posting my code below. About half way through the function, references to "name" become undefined.
Code:
private function getIcon(_name:String):int{
//5 is min length valid name can be y.xxx
if(_name == null || _name.length <5){
[code]....
In all the code past this method, all the variables and class names are showing as undefined.

Here is the simple loader script i am using in case there error is within there.

myLoader.load(new URLRequest(game.swf));

So I'm quite to Flash, AS3, etc... And this is making me nuts I'm taking on creating this website but some of my buttons just continually get a "1120: Access of undefined property" error. These are very simple buttons (not movie clip buttons or anything fancy), and their use is to navigate from one section to another (no more no less), using Labels (not much of a surprise here either).
I'm not sure whether this is relevant but the button IS inside a movie clip called "jobPositions_mc", the instance name is "jobPositions".The button is a generic button that I reused for different job positions, each one with a different instance name. In this example, the button name is "JobsOpeningButton_btn" and the instance name is "jrSalesBtn"The label of the frame I want to go to by pressing the button is "jrSales"
The script I'm using is the following:

is there any known bugs with the .name property? I created a movieclip and added it to the stage via addchild. Here's the code:

the trace statement shows that myChoice name is in fact "extravagant". So is "extravagant" my instance name? I don't know, because when I try to use extravagant as the instance name for a button the compiler says extravagant is undefined. Here's the complete code...
