I'm trying to create 4 MC's, mc1, mc2, mc3 and mc4. Populate the arrray testArray with then and then trace testArrays' contents so that that the output is:mc1mc2mc3mc4do i have to treat mc like a string in order to concatenate it with the var i in the loop?that isn't working.
Code:
var testArray:Array = new Array;
for(var i = 1; i < 4; i++){

When receiving an array from flash, in C, how do I populate that array when its size isn't constant but the values types are?
In Alchemy's documentation, the example given is:
S3_ArrayValue(arr, "IntType, StrType, DoubleType", &arg0, &arg1, &arg2);
But this means that if I my array is of size 100, I need to create a string describing each of the cells types.
Isn't there a way to populate it by saying something like "fill the following 'int * array', with the first 100 value from this AS3_Val int array?"
I'd like to populate a datagrid from an array I created from an external text file. The array looks like this: 422239;24H.SE;20100507;1;1;0.00,I'd like to use the second to sixth item to populate the grid, but I have no clue how to get into a datagrid since it has the array data has no colums or names

["BTW", "By The Way", "0"][code]....
I recently learned how to populate a component list, using an array like this:
Code:
var colours:Array = [
{label:"Blue", data:0},[code]....
Now I want to take it a step further, and populate the component list using values from an XML file. I have loaded up the XML file correctly, but I'm not sure about the syntax to use it, as I'm not really familiar with arrays that use curly braces to provide properties. My XML file contains data like this:
Code:
<colourList>
<colour>
<colourLabel>Blue</colourLabel>[code].....
it updates the list with each item in the XML progressively, and I end up with only the final item.

I suppose this is an easy question but I can't seem to get it to work. How does one create and populate a 2d array in flash? I am first defining the array with:
[Code]....
that this code exists in another for loop which loops i also please assume that 5 is my total list of entries in the xml file i simplified my code for posting. i just want to know what the proper synax is for populating this 2d array. also how do i access it? array [i,c]? right now whats happening is the array does fill up but only with the last values.
I've got some xml that I want to use to populate the labels on an array of buttons that I'm putting in with attachMovie. the button(s) load (well, the first one does) and I've got a trace statement that shows the exact data I want in the button labels. But the numbers just refuse to appear in the button labels.the labeling is correct; I've been looking at this for three days and checked the path and naming at least a dozen times.
Code:
for(i=0; i<total; i++){
patMenuHolder_mc.attachMovie("patentBtn", "patentBtn"+i, i, {_x:xPos, _y:yPos})

i was just wondering how to do this. I want my table from the database in an array in flash.What is the concept of this, should i send a string with each variable/object and have flash sort it out into a array or can you just let php make the array and send that over?
View 5 RepliesIn ActionScript I have string as
str="subject,r1,r2:a,b:1,2:3,4";
Dynamically I have split this string and build array collection as given below
arraycoll.addItem({subject:a ,r1:1,r2:3});
This example of one set. The array collection should be built dynamic. I have tried but not successful.
I have 25 dynamic text fields. If I could, I'd just assign their text by calling the array in the text property var, but that doesn't work.My text field variables are simply B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, I1, I2, I3, I4. . . (I'm populating a bingo card)I'm using 5 Arrays to get the 25 numbers. bArray, iArray. . . and so on.Now, obviously I can fill in my text fields by assigning each variable separately, however, I'd like a shorter solution.Instead of coding B1=bArray[0], B2 =bArray[1] I was looking for a way to assign all the variables in a for loop... or something...
View 7 RepliesSpecifically Im trying to make good use of some error messages by populating them to a TextField.
What I've done is to collect all the error messages in an array. I've been working on this for the better part of a day but I can't seem to get it to post as I'd like it.

i'm attempting to populate an array with random numbers, but the random numbers must be a certain, minimum distance apart from each other.i've populated an array with 5 random numbers between 0 - 100:[code]after populating and sorting let's assume that myArray now contains these values:26, 27, 42, 92, 97 now i would like some ore all of the array values to be reset, if they need to be, so that they are at least a certain percentage (let's say 10%) of the maximum value (100) apart from each other.the first 2 values (26 and 27) are not at least 10% apart and neither are the last 2 values (92 and 97). however, if i simply moved the value 27 10% away from 26, so that 27 changes to 37, 37 now conflicts with the next value of 42.what is the best approach for populating an array of random numbers who's values will be at least a certain percentage apart from one another but still random.it may go without saying, but i'm looking for a solution that is portable, where maximum values and minimum distribution percentages can be anything, not just for my example above.
View 2 RepliesI am creating an option in my application to create a PDF report based on the results from the application.The results are represented as an ArrayCollection of XMLList objects, which I am using to populate a BarChart.To create a screenshot of each result (as a PNG), I am loading the Results Window (a Title Window) and hiding it (visible = false). I am using AlivePDF to add the capture to a PDF report.
I have been using a Timer to iterate through the results, load each result to the chart, create a delay, and then capture the image and add it to the report.
UPDATE.Currently, I am able to iterate through the results (using the Timer), but the chart does not refresh properly before capturing the screenshot and saving as PNG.Essentially,I am trying to see if there is any other possible solutions for iterating through the results and creating a delay so that I may be able to load a result to the chart, capture the screenshot, and add it to a PDF.Is there any other way to do this in Flex?Initially, I was thinking of iterating through the results array using a for loop,but this was not working due to the fact that the results were not loading in time before capturing the screenshot of the chart.

I have this map I'm creating in Flash. You click on a state, then you can click on an icon to view a tooltip/popup of some information.

This works fine - the array is loaded and plays through once... What changes are needed to get it to loop through the array.
how can i set an array by using a loop.. the array is contains by a data that i read from database.. so the length of carry depend of the length of data in my database..
i try to use
for (var i:int = 0; i < xxx; i++) {
products = [p[i]];
}
i never read data from database in as3.. so if i want to use the data in database for this loop,what should i do?

I'm having to make an array that has each value increase by a 10, like 10, 20, 30, etc. is there an easier way to put in those values without adding them 'manually'?
and I have another question that is related. For this same project, on the stage there will be a text box and the user will put in a number--how can that value be run through the array? like say I input the number 500, how does it find it in the array? is there a passed id, a listener and a broadcaster?

I have an array like this:
Code:
var myData = new Array();
myData["name"] = "John";
myData["Age"] = 35;
What is the syntax to loop through and get the key and value? I have tried for each and for in but they just give me the value of "John" or "35", how can I get the key e.g. "Name" and "Age"?
Is there a simple equivalent to what I used to do in AS2 to add a bunch of new objects to the stage and throw them into an array so they can easily be referenced? I'm finding this more difficult than it used to be.

Consider an array with x number of elements (of type Object) where some of the elements might be undefined.I use a for-each loop to access all the elements of the array that is not undefined (since it simply skips the undefined elements).But I also want the index of that particular element.The only option I can see is to use indexOf(). But it feels a bit like looking for water on the other side of the river so to speak.
When looping through long arrays each frame, is there a change indexOf() might slow it down? or does the for-each loop somehow know what index it's dealing with?
I am quite new to AS3 and I am having trouble adapting my knowledge of Java to this new language i am trying to make a simple grid in which i could work on each individual square seperately(changing their colour for example). To do so, I created a 2D array,hoping it would allow me to work with some kind of coordinates system. I initialised the array using while loops and for some reason, this does not let me access the array outside the loops.[code]The two last lines are causing the problem, instead of turning the last square red, they return the following error: TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.However, when placed inside the loop, there is no problem and the whole grid turns red.
