Array's And MovieClips - Use The Naming Conventions Of An Array?

Nov 18, 2009

I received help on this site on this info-graphic im doing and the solution was to use an "array" which im not familiar with at all. the person that helped me added the following code that worked:

var city_arr:Array = new Array("louisville");//filll that array with all nedded cities//make all the boxes invisible at startfor (i=0;i<city_arr.length;i++){    var [code]...

since i dont know how to use arrays im stuck. i need to add at least 30 more cities to my info-graphic but don't know how to use the naming conventions of an array.Only one of the houses works (when you click on it a pop-up appears, is draggable and has an x to close the pop-up)

IDE :: Accessing Different MovieClips In Array?

Mar 14, 2010

I'm having problems making a loop of different movieClips. I've been able to find info about duplicating the same movieClip but I can't seem to get it to apply to this. This is what I am working with: I have 13 different movieClips of an animated character. They are titled montyDog_mc, montyBear_mc, montyCat_mc, etc. I also have a next and a previous button. What I need to happen is for the movieClip animations to cycle through, one at a time, each time the user clicks the next or previous button. I think I should be creating an array of some sort but I am very confused about how I list the movie clips in an array and apply it to the button.

This is what I have:
montyArray = new Array();
montyBear[0] = "montyBear_mc";
montyBee[1] = "montyBee_mc";
montyCow[2] = "montyCow_mc";
montyDog[3] = "montyDog_mc";
[Code] .....
Am I targeting the movieClips properly?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Movieclips From An Array?

Nov 29, 2010

Just started to make the switch from AS2 to AS3 and am having a few problems, most of which I've managed to fix but this one has got me stumped.

I'm trying to create some buttons dynamically that are spaced out evenly.The clip is in the library and exports as NavButton. I've created an array with all the button clips inside it. This is called navButtonArray and when traced shows the NavButton clips. My problem is when I try and add them to stage. I can't tell if it's only adding 1, or just placing them in the same place, or if it's continually replacing the previous navButton.[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: MovieClips Array Is Not Working?

May 14, 2009

I'm creating multiple movieclips, containing a TextField and an image as a background. In order to keep track of them I'm storing them in an array. The problem is that I can't add the movieclip to the screen >.< What I'm doing is

PHP Code:
addChild(movieclips[0]);

but it's not displaying. I know it's not the movieclip as I can addChild that and it shows, but trying to call it out of the array is not working and it's REALLY frustrating the nark out of me .How do I add the selected movieclip out of my array?

Actionscript 3 :: Re-stacking MovieClips In An Array?

May 13, 2011

I was trying to make a similar thing with the game SameGame (ie. the block above the removed blocks fall downward). Before trying this with an Array that contains MovieClips, this code worked (tried it with int values). With MovieClips on the array, it seems not working the same way.With int values, example:

popUp(0, 4): Before: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10; After: 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10

But with MovieClips:

popUp(0, 4): Before: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10; After; 1,2,3,4
// Assume the numbers are movieclips XD

Basically, it strips everything else, rather than just the said block >_< Here's the whole method. Basically, two extra arrays juggle the values above the soon-to-be removed value, remove the value, then re-stack it to the original array.

function popUp(col:uint, row:uint)
{
var tempStack:Array = new Array();
var extraStack:Array = new Array();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stopping Movieclips In An Array?

Jul 16, 2010

I created 6 movieclips and imported them into my main file. They each play a short animation when clicked. I added an event listener and a .stop() for each movieclip.Instead of writing all the repetitious code, I want to put them all into an array. The question is, how do I get the movieclips to stop so they don't play before clicked on?

var myClips:Array = [a_mc, b_mc, c_mc, d_mc, e_mc, f_mc];
myClips.stop(); //I tried this but it didn't work

ActionScript 3.0 :: Manipulating MovieClips In An Array

Jan 19, 2011

I have a rather unusual problem. I've got an Array consisting of ten different MovieClips (all pre-placed on the stage), and would like to be able to manually use the gotoAndStop and gotoandPlay commands on these via the array. I've tried ActionScript Code: //This script does not work IconArray[1].gotoAndStop(1); however it simply throws out an error. Is such precise manipulation of MovieClip arrays even possible, and if so, how would I code it? (Nb: I've looked at the ForEach method, but couldn't find a way to make it sit my current dilema).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using A Function On An Array Of Movieclips?

Mar 12, 2011

I'm trying to apply a function to an array of movieclips, rather than have to type out the function for each one. So, if my movieclips were mc1, mc2 and mc3, I would have:

Code:
function Invisible (movieclip){
movieclip._alpha=50;
}

[code]....

This does not work - I still have to put Invisible(mc1) for each object to make it work. Is there a way to use arrays to do this?

Actionscript 3.0 :: MovieClips In Array Not Playing?

Jan 6, 2010

I'm trying to make a menu that has multiple movie clips as buttons and control them all with an array and one event listener. There will be many movieClip buttons on my page but for now I have two animated movieClips each with a stop(); action on fram one. The movieClips have 15 frames of animation. The main timeline of my movie has only 1 frame. Each movie clip is on it's own layer. If I create an event listener without the array I can get the buttons to work individually but when using the Array I can't get it to work.

Code:
Select allvar buttonArray : Array = [btnA, btnB,];
for each (var button : MovieClip in buttonArray) {
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, _handleMouseEvents);
} function _handleMouseEvents(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

When I use the trace function instead of gotoAndPlay(1); it works perfect?
Code: Select allvar buttonArray : Array = [btnA, btnB,];
for each (var button : MovieClip in buttonArray) {
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, _handleMouseEvents);
}

But when I call this function it does nothing but remove p1s, p2s, p3s and p4s. Also when I type trace(s) in one of the for loops, it outputs 0 for some reason.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Array With MovieClips And Listeners

I've created a code to add a custom cursor and drag movieclips. It works fine for one moviclip. But I would like to create a function to add the drag function with custom cursor to any movieClip that i add to an array. My first try has problems cause I need to create a different listener name to each movieClip.
cMouse = CustomMouse;
mystring:FunctionParameters = movieClipsNames;
mouseListener => Needs to duplicate (i guess);

function arrastar (mystring) {
arrasta = false;
cMouse._x = _xmouse;
cMouse._y = _ymouse;
clips_array = new Array();

I've attached my original working code to 1 movieclip with a customCursor onRollOver
