I have 4 buttons that just tween a large MC. When I tween something though It loads the content to be tweened. After that if user clicks another tween I need a a way to remove the last thing that was just tweened. not methods, just a way to select the correct MC and remove it.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple game I am attempting to write. random movie clip (from the library) is displayed on the stage from an array of mc's Here's the question. What my game will do, is allow the user to select one of two buttons (red and green) based on the movieclip that is displayed. One will yield a correct result and the other will yield an incorrect result.HOWEVER, depending on the movie clip displayed, sometimes the red button will yield the correct result and sometimes the green button will yield the correct result. I am having trouble figuring out the best logic in writing code to accomplish this.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to remove the value "3"
Code: Select allvar myArray:Array = new Array("1","2","3","4","5");
myArray.pop(); // removes the last value "5"
myArray.shift(); // removes the first value "1"
How do you remove the value 3 and still have the correct length?
I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

Flex 4 Combobox is extended with a Text Input that helps in getting to the item that is searched for.I have created a Check Box as an itemrenderer for this Flex 4 Combobox. I would like to Add a Select All and Select None options in the drop down of the Combobox. I know that i could accomplish by editing the dropdownfactory in case of a Flex 3 Combobox. But in Flex 4 the dropdownfactory doesnt exist.

Just wondered if I remove a parent movieclip and then set it to null, will it remove all the child movieclips within it from the Display list and also from memory, or do I need to iterate through the parent movieclip removing all its children before removing the parent?

I'm running into an issue with a Library class not being able to get the correct getQualifiedClassName. Here is my setup. I have a lot of MovieClips on the stage with instances names like item0, item1, item2 and so on. What I need to do is extend some of those items and give them extra functionality so I opened the items Symbol properties dialog box that I wanted to add a custom Base class to and Checked Export For Actionscript. Kept the Class name the same as the stage instance name. as it needs a unique class name. Then for the BaseClass I added a path to my class that I wanted each item to have extra functionality. The base class was called StageItem which extends MovieClip

Using CS4. I made a little 300x250 animated ad to place into online newspapers and published a swf movie. At work, they opened it in safari and it shows the whole safari screen and objects outside of the 300x250 boundary show up. Can I assume that when it goes into the 300x250 slot in the newspaper only the ad will show with it's true boundaries? They think at work that the newspaper will shrink down the whole thing. And sending a swf movie is correct? Not some other file type? And is it correct to save the movie for Flash Player 10 or would 9 be a safer bet?
View 5 RepliesI have read all kinds of posts on this, most are old from back in the early 00's. I have some flash banners that I made that need .gif back ups and I find myself pretty screwed if I can't do this. I tried exporting an .swf thru the publishing settings in Flash and no matter which setting I choose the gifs are pixelated and very bad quality. I just finished reading a post where it said to use the file - export from the menu which I did use and the quality is much better but nothing near acceptable for the client.
I also read to export the swf to Quicktime and QT can convert to animated gif so while I look at that option is there someone that can point me in the right direction as this could spell trouble for me if I cannot come up with a solution as I have multiple swfs that need to go through Google analyctics and need the gif back ups.
On my website I go to "movie explorer" and go through all the ActionScript and on the bar tab it does open upa moving vertical options (it shows up when I have it in swf or preview it) but while I am in Flash CS4 I can't find it....there are extra componentsin separate files inside the folders (mx) and (tm). It is not live on my site yet but what I am trying to do is have certain tabs go directly to a different webpage (not all of them to the flash tabs as specified) as you will see by visiting my site: [URL]

I am trying to store the x and y position of a mc and thought I would do it using object. I am getting a compile error but do not see why?
"Case insensitive identifier 'object' will obscure built-in object 'Object'"
Code:
var some_mc = new object ({_x:150, _y:50});
trace("some_mc x position is " + some_mc._x);
this is an atempt to make a infinite menu, but the AS has something wrong.
please try and make it OK.

When I make a MC and I put another MC inside of it, whenever I write code in the frame of the main stage to use the child MC's x and y coordinates, I get the child MC's coordinates in respect to the _parent MC. If what I wrote didnt make any sense, what I mean is that if I make a tank MC named tankBody and a turret MC named tankTurret, and I stick them both in a MC called tank, if I write code that moves the tank MC's y the tankTurret and tankBody's y will stay the same. How can I make it so that I can read tankTurret's y & x coordinates in repect to the main stage?

View 5 RepliesI have a background image at 720x576px. My flash document is also set to the same. When I import my graphic and drag it onto the stage it is a completely different size?
This means I have to re-size using the free transform tool, and as I have to re-size many images for different movies that have to be exact, what is the best way to re-size them? Should my imported image not fit the stage size exactly without re-sizing at all?
I understand the developer has no control over flash player's garbage collection routine, but whats the best way to ensure you've deleted a movie clip and done pretty much everything you can?

So I'm working on a portfolio and I'm trying to load an image with a submenu on top of it that will let you click through a couple different related images. However, right now the submenu keeps loading underneath the image, so the buttons are there and you can see it a split second before the other image loads over the top. I tried manually putting in levels for the image and submenu and no luck.
