Nov 7, 2009I have 2 classes, Display holds the currently selected Component:
public class Display

public static var selectedComponent:Component;
}
Component has an ID string and the selectedComponent variable is set on click:
public class Component extends MovieClip
{
public var id:String;
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function() {

Removing the selectedComponent variable type so it reads public static var selectedComponent; removes the conversion error and seems to change the ID variable but it appears to only be a copy of the object.

Jul 2, 2006[AS]

myVar = "stuff";

Obviously, the above clearInterval won't work, because the clearInterval looks for "myVar" instead of "stuff". I want it to be the other way around.
I tried using the following, but with no luck.
[AS]clearInterval(this[myVar]);
clearInterval(_root[myVar]);[/AS]

Actionscript 3 :: Object Notation For Variable
Dec 3, 2011I have some variables in the format: var like6Y:Number = 50; Later I am dynamically setting some: num=6; Then I am trying to use that num to get the variable like6Y: like+6+Y I know that is totally wrong but I seem to remember you could use some kind of object notation to accomplish this: ["like"+num+"Y"] Or something along those lines. But I can't remember how to do it.

Dec 29, 2011Is it possible to reference an object using a variable value?
For example, I have a function that is supposed to hide an image and add that image to an inventory list when the item is clicked.
All the image info is stored in an object (name, imgSource, visible, x, y);
I was thinking I could do something like this:

public var item:Object = new Object();

As3 :: Flash - Dynamically Name A Variable On An Object?
Feb 11, 2012So, if I need to give a custom variable name to an object how would I do that?
For instance, if I have a gameID that is 12345 and its rating is 3 I want to save a variable called gameRatings_12345 thats value is 3 in my shared local object.
//share object
protected var mySavedData:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("mySavedData");
I have the game id in a string
var gameID:String = "12345";
Then when I try to assign the value like this...
mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID = 3
I think it's literally reading it as "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID" instead of "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_12345"
How can I give the variable a custom name?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Variable Object Referencing
Jun 14, 2007I am in no way very knowledgable with ActionScript, so this might be very simple and I am looking in all of the wrong places... but basically here is my issue: Instead of accessing an objects attributes like this, _level0.thumbnails.thumbnail0._width = 500; I want to be able to access it with _level0.thumbnails. (this.id) ._width = 500; where as (this.id) is a variable that could be equal to "thumbnail0" or "thumbnail99" depending on which object gets clicked. I have everything working to if I hardcode thumbnail0 it works fine, and this.id does get set to whatever thumbnail I click's "thumbnail" + ID
View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: String To Object Variable?
Feb 15, 2009I'm trying to format a variable into the middle of an object so that I can pass the entire thing as a parameter to a javascript function via ExternalInterface, but I cannot figure out how to format the data correctly.
I need it to end up looking like this:
Code:
{gallery:'myvar'}
braces and apostrophes included. myvar would be my variable data, which is a string. I tried connecting it all together as a big string, but the javascript function didnt like that. It did accept it if I typed the entire thing staticly as an object variable and passed that. Is there any way I can format it all into a string and then convert the string data to an object? or is there another way to try and accomplish something like this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Set Parent Variable From Object?
Apr 1, 2011I've got an external class and make like 20 objects with it. If I e.g. hover my mouse above them, the objects themselves know that, the parent clip however does not. Now I want a global boolean to be set to true, if one of those objects is focused. So in other words I want to set a parent variable from inside of an object that I created with a class.
I could make myself an enter-frame-loop and check all of the objects all of the time, but that doesn't sound like a good solution.
I could also add 20 change-listeners to the parent clip, but I'm not sure about the performance of that. And I have listeners inside the objects anyway, so those should be somehow able to take care of that, or isn't that possible?

View 2 RepliesCS3 :: Create A Different Object Of The Same Variable Name With The Switch Statment?
Oct 20, 2009I just started in as3 after a long break from flash and I have run into a slight problem and couldn't find any readily available solutions online so I thought I'd ask, I'm trying to do something like this:
Code:
switch(characters[ps[1]])
{
case 0:
[code]....
I want to create a different object of the same variable name with the switch statment but it gives me "1151: A conflict exists with definition player in namespace internal" which is of course because I'm redeclaring the variable. I'm not 100% sure it technically exists in the current scope though (but it must because I am getting this error.) I also tried a few ways of initializing as just MovieClip up topside and then just try and typecast it down here but as can be assumed that didn't work either.
Is there a way to get my intended effect or am I gonna have to make some like an above class containing all these other classes on it's various frames and just instantiate those?
