ActionScript 3.0 :: Reorder Array By The Z Coordinate And Add An Event To Animate It?
Nov 22, 2010
how to reorder my Array by the Z coordinate now I want to add an event to animate it. I want my shapes to move from their position on the stage out of vision with the vanishing point at the bottom of the stage. I hope this makes sense its kind of hard to explain but heres the code I have to reorder my array by Z.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;

I am trying to write a function that is passed an array and will then reorder it randomly and return the array. My problem is that as the position is generated randomly I dont know how long the loop must run for, this function doesn't work but it should give you an idea of what I'm trying to do:
[AS]
function randomise(the_ar:Array):Array {
var ret_ar:Array = new Array();
for (i=0; i<200; i++) {

After creating a container with 5 dynamically attached clips. I want to place the move the clips to coordinate from xArray and yArray the clips are not moving. What did I goof?
Code:
//Variable to Store Number of Clips Desired
clipCount = 5;
xArray(25, 50, 75, 100, 125);
yArray(200, 250, 300, 350, 400);
newX = xArray[i-1];
// set coordinate X (destination)

I want to create a simple array of points, representing a clockwise set of coordinates at 45 degree increments, such that the array would be (starting from 12 o'clock):
var coordArray : Array = [
new Point(0,-1),
new Point(1,-1),
new Point(1,0),[code]........
I'm looking for the most efficient way of creating this array (ideally with the coordinates themselves generated through some sort of equation). What's the best way to do this? All I want to do with these is create a coordinate on the stage relative to the clips current coordinate in which to move, based on that clips, such that if the move distance for clips was 50px, and the clip had a depth of 0, it would move 50px in the coordArray[0] position, or 0*50 in the x direction, and -50px in the y direction (0,-1).

I have a question; is it possible to animate an array that contains a split string? I've added the string into a dynamically made textfield, and I'm trying to figure out how to have each letter appear one by one, creating the typing effect and have easing towards the end.

I'm building a portfolio site and I've renamed the secenes and reordered them but when I test the movie it defaults to what was originally scene 1. I'm working in AS2. If the mods will allow the web site is [URL]. There is an intro page which was scene 6 which is now renamed "intro" and draggd to the top of the pile but it doesnt show when I preview or upload.

I'm using the following code to load XML directly into a datagrid:
import flash.events.Event;

How can I reorder my columns based on the title?
EDIT:My XML looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I have a little trouble in managing the children my container. The fact is that it has a lot of children and their y coordinates are very random.
Is there anyway i can order them by y coordinates that the lower will be in the front and the higher with be in the back?

I am loading a master XML file and then trying to break it down into sections
Here's my XML file:
Code:
<listarray>
<items>
<entry type="ecard" num="2">
[Code]....
So I was able to create a new array that contains only entries with the attribute "ecard" in them, but now I want to re-order that array into numerical order based on the attribute "num" so that it lists as Ecard 1, Ecard 2, Ecard 3 in the XML. How would I go about re-ordering the new array I've created?

I am unable to find if the spark DataGrid supports moving / reordering the columns. If not what could be the best solution? Maybe using the mx version?
I want the user to be able to drag the columns and arrange them.

I have a control which contains many child elements (about 1000), and I need to sort them.Now I doing that like this:
_elements.sortOn(...);
for (var i: int = 0; i < _elements.length; i++) {
setItemIndex(_childItems[_elements[i].id], i);
}
_childElement - object that contains UI-child elements, which i need to sort (key of the dictionary is an identifier from data-object
_elements - array contains data-objects
But this is too slow! How to reorder the childs by my criteria as fast as possible?

I am making a horizontal list that I want to be able to drag each item around to reorder the list. When one clip is dragged over another I want the one under it to move left or right to fill in the empty space left by the clip being dragged. I cannot seem to figure out how to tell which movieclip is touching or "under" the movieclip currently being dragged around. It seems that the hitTestObject method need explicity instance names to work. In summary, I want to know the instance name of any display object that the dragging moveclip touches.

I have a Flex List which is databound to a Array. My problem is that when I reorder the List using the built in dragMoveEnabled, the values are reset to the original values.I assume I need to somehow do a two-way databinding but I am not sure how.
<mx:List width="100%" top="20" id="uiItemList" dragMoveEnabled="true" bottom="0"
dragEnabled="true" dropEnabled="true"
dataProvider="{listArray}" >
<mx:itemRenderer>

I am using CS3 set to AS3. On frame one I have 120 buttons ( yes, one hundred twenty buttons), unfortunately I have tried to reduce this but to no avail. Anyway, I know I can put these into an array to take away some of the coding. but my question is can I also use a integer?
My button are named Btn1 - Btn120. I would want to use the array and integer for simple things such as event listeners for roll over, click, roll out, and a couple of basic if statements. All of the buttons are movie clips.For some other more detailed functions I know I could still call the button name ( at least I think I should still be able to), but wanted to make sure.

I am trying to create a drag and drop activity, and I would like to use an array for easy reusability.I'm new to as3 so I've been adjusting my old as2 code. I am using a component for each of my drags and most of it is working well.My problem is with the event handlers. I use the array to populate all of my 'drags' with the information added in their parameters and this works, but when I create my event listeners it seems to only want to move the last item in the array.My drag components are called drag1, drag2, and drag3.[code]

I have an event listener applied to an xml load and it currently traces out the values it grabs which is fine, but what I want it to do is return an array for me to use. I have the Array creation and return working from "LoadXML" (it returns the array) but I can't get this to work with an event listener.The event listener runs the "LoadXML" function fine, but I have no idea how to take the returned array for use, this is an example of how my event listener works right now:xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());and my assumption of how I would take the array (this doesn't work):var rArray:Array = xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());so instead I tried the following:
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function():Array{
var rData:Array = LoadXML(datahere);
return rData;

How would I go about as to addEventListener for a array object. I'm trying to avoid running a timer every x milliseconds to check for new elements in array object, rather trying to make a event fire when new elements are detected to process them and remove them. Is it possible with Arrays? maybe ArrayCollections? either is fine.

I want to know how i can add an event listener to every item of an array.I know I can do it like this
Code: Select allvar stuff:Array = [MC1, MC2, MC3, MC4]
for (var i:Number = 0; i < stuff.length(); i++)[code].........
But it occurred to me; after coding for loop after for loop, that there must be some way to use the forEach(), or every() method to accomplish the same thing.

I'm creating an image gallery and the below code is what I have come up with to create a 'container' movieclip which dynamically adds a number of thumbnails, each as a separate movie clip, one after another vertically inside the container (which is contained inside a 'main' movieclip - note the existence of mc1 is to enable me to mask the container - this is worknig so you can disregard it).(Note the number of clips is currently hardcoded to 7)
Code:
image = new Array(); //array of movie clips to be contained
imgLink = new Array();

I'm trying to tween six Movieclip (using TweenLite) in an Array to where they scale up when pressed. When another is pressed it scales up and the others will scale down.
