ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting A Class Variable?

Aug 3, 2010

trying to get a variable set so that I can use it in another class.I am trying to set the class variable animate. My "intended" goal is that I am trying to load in an external SWF file that is a pulley In this external SWF file I have a function that stops the animation called "stopAnimation()". I want to be able to access this stopAnimation function in a couple of class files. So I pass this object to those classes and then I should be able to access the stopAnimation() function from where ever but I cannot seem to get the contentloader info into a class variable in order to call it from other objects.

Here is the code

PHP Code:

package com.ahicks.assets{
import com.ahicks.Main;
import com.ahicks.Trace;
import com.ahicks.ndTween.easing.*;

Flash Movie With Two Frames - Setting Variable?

Jan 25, 2010

I have a flash movie, which has two frames and constantly loops. On the first frame I have set my variable, and on the next frame I make it add 1 to that variable. Thing is, the variable is currently being set to "0" on frame one, added one, then set back "0" again as it goes back to the first frame. Is there a way, without adding extra frames to set a variable on Load but then to not set it again?

My actionscript is like this:
Frame 1:
count = 0
Frame 2:
count +=1

ActionScript 2.0 :: Mystified: Setting A Dynamic Field = A Variable

Jul 27, 2004

I should also mention from the outset that I'm a pretty advanced user here, and have done the following literally a thousand times, hence my utter confusion.

Here's the story:

1- Load data from XML file, parse it, assign root level variables to the data bits. This is fine, running in debugger shows all my variables are there.

2- I have a dynamic text field at the root level, called "instructions"

3- On frame one, in part of my script I simply set _root.instructions = _root.general_help; (one of my variables from the XML)

4- Nothing displays.

If I manually set _root.instructions = "blah blah blah"; it displays no problem.

If I put another dynamic text field on the same frame, on the same layer as instructions and assign it the variable _root.general_help, this works and displays the proper text.

If I throw a button on stage and set it to onRelease-> _root.instructions = _root.general_help; this works as well.

So what the heck is going on? This is as simple as you can get, and compared with the other things going on in this program it's, like, a negative number on the 1-10 difficulty scale.
