ActionScript 2.0 :: SetProperty Doesn't Work?
Jul 16, 2010I'm trying to do something pretty simple: I am duplicating a movie clip and setting the _x and _y properties of the duplicate. The reason it is driving me up the wall is that the code works if I export for Flash Player 6, but not for anything later, and according to the sites I've read this code should work. I don't want to get into this project (which is big) and find out later that I can't export for such an old player.Here's the code:
Code:
function createBalls(ballNum) {
var newClipName:String = "ball" + ballNum;

ActionScript 2.0 :: SetProperty - Can See Only With One Coordinate
Oct 8, 2005first have a look at this: [URL] It loads "auto" coordinates from php file, and makes the "auto" move after timeinterval. It is needed tht it could load infinate coordinates, but i fail to do it. If u change setProperty(auto, _x, kord ) to setProperty(auto, _x, x2 ) , it works, but as u can see only with one coordinate.
View 9 RepliesFlex :: Difference Between SetProperty And RemoveChild
Jun 15, 2011When state is changed, we can define the new properties for the new state overidding the properties of the base state.
But, I had a doubt. What is the difference between using setProperty() and removeChild() in Flex ?
Take the following case.
Suppose there are 2 Vbox inside the application container. When the state is changed by some event, I need only 1 VBox in the appln container.
(a) Should I set setProperty for that particular VBox of width and height to 0 ? or (b) Should I remove the VBox from the new state by using removeChild() property ?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Unable To SetProperty Deprecated?
Jun 21, 2010I have read this a few times, however, I never really understood the alternative. Please help me understand.How would I, without SetProperty, change the _alpha of a movieclip defined by a variable.With setProperty I would define the variable(which obviously will be changing, therefore a variable is needed):var movieClip = "_root.someMovieClip_mc"setProperty(movieClip, _alpha , 50)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using SetProperty Function In Masked Layer
Jul 12, 2002I'm having some problems setting _x and _y positions of a movie clip attached (into a clip on a masked layer) using attachMovie. The code should position the clips icon1-8 on the y axis (100 pixels Ipart). The destination movie clip (the one with the actions) resides in a masked layer, I remember reading that there were some problems with masked layers in version 5. (i'm using flash MX). The movie clip is _root.openwindow.files
onClipEvent (load) {
for (var counter=1; counter<9; ++counter) {
this.attachMovie("icon", "icon"+counter, counter);
this["icon"+counter]._x= 37;
this["icon"+counter]._y=counter*100;
}}
I am pretty sure there is nothing wrong with the code.. as it works outside the masked layer..
ActionScript 2.0 :: SetProperty (multiple Targets, _property, Value)?
Mar 28, 2005I've 2 mc in timeline instance names are:
form1
form2
in first frame I wrote the following code
setProperty(form1, _alpha, 50);
setProperty(form2, _alpha, 50);
this works ok. but the question is... multiple targets, how could I do something like this:
setProperty((form1; form2), _alpha, 50);
although I know this doesn't work... how could I setProperty of more than one instance?
Media Server :: SharedObject - SetProperty/getProperty No Change?
Feb 15, 2012I can't seem to get setProperty to affect any change detectable by getProperty, or any other means.
* Can you please help me find and fix the problems in my code? Also, it would be great if you could provide a snippet of code to both read/write to the SO from the Flash swf client, and changes required in the FMS server-side code to receive events onSync from another FMS server (also sending to another FMS server.. I know it should be very similar in theory).

ActionScript 3.0 :: SetProperty Method Only Applicable To Remote SharedObject?
Jan 25, 2011Is the setProperty method only applicable to remote shared objects and not to local shared objects? The following code works fine:
Code:
web_so.setProperty("web", "someURL");
trace(username_so.data.Name);
Where 'web_so' was earlier declared as a remote shared object. When the above line of code is parsed, the bbc website opens in the browser and the trace statement get's printed in the output cosole. However if I were to replace the web_so...code witht the following:
Code:
username_so.setProperty("web", "someURL");
trace(username_so.data.Name);
Where 'username_so' was earlier declared as a local shared object. The trace statements prints out fine, but the brower dosent fire up at all. Which makes me wonder if the 'setProperty' method is something unique to remote shared objects, but I dont see the API mentioning that.

IDE :: Swf Files Work Fine Separately, Don't Work When On Same Page?
Feb 22, 2010I have run across a strange problem. When I load products2.swf by itself, I can call the two "copy" files and everything works. When I open 0342.swf (the index page), I can switch between the home and products2 pages, but I can't view the "copy" pages.I'm guessing there may be some sort of conflict with variable names, but I have been messing with it for most of today.I have uploaded all of the FLA files to here:[url]....
If you make an swf file out of each of the attached items, and open the 0342 file, you will see what is supposed to be happening.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Width Doesn't Work - How To Make It Work
Apr 21, 2010I have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410

Oct 15, 2010I have a completed project (AS2) that contains a lot of FLVs. I burned it onto DVD and it works great on Mac (guide.app) and PC (guide.exe).Here's the web version of the project.http:[url]....Now, months later, I have to provide the project with source files (FLA's) and some other stuff - so I got an external HD, copied the files from the working DVD onto it. Running the guide.exe off of the external (connected to WinXP SP3) works just like running it off the DVD - EXCEPT for the FLVs which simply to not appear.
http:[url]...Everything up to that step works: When I click on "guide.exe", the "splash screen" opens showing the title and 4 buttons. These buttons are to choose a language and they work.When I select a language and click its button the GUI for the language with menus appear and they work. When I click on a topic from the menu, the topic's skin appears but the video inside the skin doesn't play. Everything works but the FLVs.
Even weirder - If I use VLC Player to open an FLV directly - the FLV will play. That tells me there is some path issue but how can a path change when it's compiled into the SWF? Besides - the paths from swf to flv has not changed when I copied all the files to the external.why the FLVs will not play on the external the same way they play when on the DVD?

Jul 23, 2009I have a swf that is pretty complicated, you can interact with the page and go to different keyframes and it stops and/or starts depending on buttons, but I want to put it in a fla or something so I can put other swfs next to it and build it up and put several of them together as one.
I don't care about making it too complicated, I just want one interactive swf to go to the next compiled swf when that movie ends, but when I try importing it or loading it it just runs straight through without stopping or paying any attention to the scripting.

AS 2.0 :: Button Does Not Work

I have made them into Movie Clips and put actionscript onto the MC instance which looks like this: [code]The button does not work. I have converted the symbol to a button and kept the Actionscript on the instance and they do not work. I have in fact copied exactly what I have done on a previous site that worked and it is not working here.The AS is not on the timeline, nor on the button or movieclip but on the instance of it. I am at a loss as to why it doesn't work. When I use the button instead of the MC the button flashes/blinks but still does not work.

Can't Get Tween To Work
Aug 23, 2010I am working on a site (in Flash CS5 -- using AS3) with drop-down menus. I finally got my drop-downs to work and was stoked for that. I then decided that I wanted the menu bar to motion tween in from the left. I placed the tween on the bar, and saw the tween line on the stage. However, when I go to test the movie in Flash, or publish it and watch it in my browser, the tween doesn't happen, the bar just stays left of the stage.
