ActionScript 2.0 :: Singular Button Navigation To Multiple Places In Timeline?
Sep 26, 2006I have a navigation menu that is a movieclip (menu_mc). In the movieclip are 5 buttons. i need the buttons, when clicked, to play a different area of the timeline, dependent on where the user is on the timeline.
I've tried writing this actionscript on the main timeline. But can't get anything to work and am a little lost. for example Say the viewer is on frame 5, and clicks the "blue" button and jumps to frame 6. on frame 6 if they are to click "blue" button again i want to send them to frame 7, not to frame 6.
if anyone could direct me to a tutorial on how to write up something like this, especially one dealing with a very large timeline and multiple buttons, i'd be grateful!
ActionScript 2.0 :: Tricky Multidimensional Array?
Nov 10, 2004I can't seem to get my combobox to work right. Let me paint the scenerio.I have my multidimensional array:
Code:
nissan = [ ["altima","1984","2005"], ["maxima","1976","2005"] ];
Then I have my two comboboxes:
Code:
model_cb and
year
heres my AS:[code]....
when I do this my "year_cb" displays >> nissan[0][1] or nissan[1][1] depending on if you choose altima or maxima.So I've gotten it to do that much but now I need it to display the corresponding year for the part in the array i.e. plug in "1984" (nissan[0][1]) and populate the combobox through 2005 (nissan[0][2]).when I use this code:
Code:
for(i=nissan[0][1]; i<nissan[0][1]; i++){year.addItem(i);
My file is to big to include even after zipping.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A Kind Of Tricky Recursive Function?
Apr 4, 2005Because it's a little hard to explain what I need.. I'll make an example.So.. I have the figure below. I mean.. that's what I'm trying to achieve. For that figure I have data stored in the folowing way._root.marc is an Array.All the paths that leave a square ... like From M0 if you choose 1 you'll get M1,From M0 through 5 you'll get to M3.. and so on.this is stored like_root.marc[0].p - the paths. If _root.marc[x].p.length is 0.. that means that Mx is the last one.. and has no paths assigned, like shown in the figure. My very big problem is that I need to position that MC's.. M3,M4.. all of them, according to the paths above them.
So, to position M2, i need to take a look at M1, and if it has any paths, more than one path, I need to move it further down. But this is not the end of it. If M1 has more paths that lead to other MC-s.. i need to take in considerations their paths too . This drove me mad for the last couple of days, and my time is slowly running out for my diploma What I've tryed till now was to build a function let's say... getNextY(m) that should return a number. A "ponder"?..like...to use it in a line like M2._y = (currIndex + getNextY(1))*dy;// here it should return 5 for instanceM3._y = (currIndex + getNextY(2))*dy;// here getNextY should return 1
ActionScript 2.0 :: Tricky Navigation - Replace The Chosen Button?
May 23, 2002i got 5 buttons in a row. on mouseover i want to replace the chosen button with 3 or 4 buttons (they should smoothly, vertically come up and all other buttons should come closer, depending on the longest of the new buttons). on rollout i want to go back to the first button.
so, i put the first row of buttons on frame 1 (the actions stop). on mouseover it keeps going to frame 2 and smoothly the buttons come up. on 5 there s a stop action. on rollout it keeps going to frame 8, where its back to normal again. on a second mouseover its supposed to go to frame 2. and theres the problem, sometimes it works, sometimes not.

ActionScript 3.0 :: First Letter Of String To Capital?
Jul 24, 2010Trying to get the first letter of a String to capital, and the rest of the String must be lower case. I think I am on the right tracks with the first letter, but not sure how to make everything else forced to be lowercase. Heres a bit of info because I might need to change things. I load in a flashvar vaiable by
var flashVar3 = root.loaderInfo.parameters.myVar2;
I am not to sure what data type this would be, not sure what flashvars comes as. I am then doing
var oldStr:String = flashVar3;
var newStr:String = oldStr.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + oldStr.substr(1);
tf3.text=" "+ newStr;
I dont know if the first line is an issue, because i dont know if flashvars comes as a String. But what I have generally would work on the first letter. Not to sure how I can force the rest of the String to be lowercase though. At this moment in time, I get the error TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
But I am not sure if this is because my flashvars variable is defined at runtime. Any advise on getting all of this working would be great.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Splitting A Var By Length?
Sep 15, 2004i have a var lets say 'x' x="i like cheese and want to eat it everyday" i want to split the var x by every 10'th character, assuming the 10 chracter is not in the middle of a word , then i want it to split it before that so that no words are not cut out...
ex:
x="i like cheese and want to eat it everyday"
arr[1]="i like " 7chars causs 10th char was inside 'cheese' and spliting of words is not allowed
arr[2]="cheese and " 10 chars exactly , splits at space
arr[3]="want to " 8 chars 10th char inside eat .. u get the idea by now i hope
arr[4]="eat it "
arr[5]="everyday"
so its splitting the variable every 10th character.. if the 10th chracter is a space, if it is not it backs up to the previous space and for the next array slot starts from there
Flex :: GWT Style Code Splitting?
Dec 22, 2009I do a lot of work with GWT but don't have experience of Flex. I was talking to a guy today who was looking at moving some large Flex based applications to GWT due to the Flex application getting too big and using too much memory in the browser. This is a problem I have had before with GWT - browser apps using lots of memory as all the code gets loaded when it starts.
However, in GWT 2.0 there is now a code splitting feature to overcome the problem of the client code getting too big. This allows all the code (javascript) not to be loaded as one big file on start up but instead code split into different files that can be loaded when required.
I was thinking as to if there is anything similar in Flex. I assume the Flex application code all lives in one single SWF file which loads at start-up so this approach is not possible but thought there might be other solutions.
Javascript :: Splitting A File Before Upload?
Nov 4, 2010On a webpage, is it possible to split large files into chunks before the file is uploaded to the server? For example, split a 10MB file into 1MB chunks, and upload one chunk at a time while showing a progress bar?
It sounds like JavaScript doesn't have any file manipulation abilities, but what about Flash and Java applets?
This would need to work in IE6+, Firefox and Chrome. Update: forgot to mention that (a) we are using Grails and (b) this needs to run over https.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Splitting Up A Large Project?
Nov 4, 2009I'm currently working on a little project of mine, where I have a character and a number of different items like clothing,hairstyles etc, which over time.. hopefully will grow into a tremendous amount.The thing is, if I have eveything in one fla file, there'll come a time where it becomes too bloated/large and Flash will eventually lag.So, is there anything way I can keep for example.. all the clothing in a separate fla/swf and the main character in another fla.But when I publish.. They all combine back together?I customise the character dynamically with references to linkage identifiers.. So I need a way which allows them to be split into different swfs, but still be able to call to the right clip.
View 6 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: LoadVars Result Is Splitting?
Oct 8, 2007I am always using LoadVars to load in data from PHP or whatever and it normally always works. But some times my result data is split into multiple variables when there is only meant to be one var. I think it always splits on ampersands ("&") which makes sense, as they are used to tell Flash when a new var is starting.
I was wondering if anyone knows more about this, and if there is a way around it. Usually I get around it escaping the characters on server-side, but I recently have a project where I cant change the data that is sent to me.
Splitting Animated Shapes Onto Separate Layers?
Dec 1, 2010Here's what I'm trying to do:
I'm doing some animated characters (I'm on CS5), and I'm trying to optimize the animation/rigging process to save time and manpower (there is very little of both).
The characters all have multiple animations, which are stored each in their own movieclip, which in turn is placed on a main movieclip where each animation verb (states) is stored on a frame, so we can switch between animations (the usual game character setup)
Each state movieclip has the entire animation on it's timeline. they have about 20 layers, each with as few objects as possible in them... The idea was that later, these layers could be moved onto movieclips of their own, to allow for character customization (changing colors and whatnot)... This seems like a pretty straightforward setup, but there is a snag.
Some objects that need to be moved onto movieclips are sharing layers with other objects that don't, despite my best efforts to plan ahead and prevent that (hence the 20 layers, which obviously weren't enough).
So my question is:
Is it at all possible to select shapes across all frames of a layer? I know you can edit multiple frames, but I haven't found a way to select a specific shape across all frames.
For a better unerstanding of the situation, imagine that a layer might contain the shaped for an arm. They're all at shape level, and the only separation between the different arm sections are the different colors each has, which makes it possible to select a single shape on a single frame just by clicking it (which will 'flood fill' the selection).
Now, with edit multiple frames on, clicking a shape will only select it on a single frame, and drag selecting will select a rectangular area across all frames.
What I'm looking for is a way to 'flood select' a shape across all frames, so I can select, say, the upper part of the arm across all frames, and then delete it, leaving me with a layer that only has the lower part (and a previously coped layer that can have the lower part removed, effectively separating them).
Shift/Alt/Ctrl/Right clicking won't work here... there doesn't seem to be one of Adobe's obscure shortcuts for this..
ActionScript :: Splitting Flash Design And Coding?
Oct 14, 2009Hi, I am brand new to Flash and I come from other development environments so I have a question about a possibility. I am aware that you can have a symbol (like a MovieClip) use a custom class to handle how it responds to the world, but I was wondering if it's possible to be able to set some values via flash without having to touch code. For example, I create a MovieClip called Crate, which has a class that lets it be destroyed, but then the designer wants to specify that certain crates have contents inside of them. Is there any way to do that in flash without having to create a new class for the crate?
In other words: the designer puts a Crate in the world and then sets a propery (for example: contents = TennisBall) and the Crate class handles the rest. Will this work? Also, am I right to understand that instances of symbols are all the exact same? So I can't have the designer create a new instance of Crate and then change it to be a little different (like draw a sticker on the Crate), but still have it be the same as all the other Crates?
I hope these questions make sense and I apologize if I asked this in the wrong forum. I'm very interested in developing games for flash, especially after the news that CS5 will let you export to the iPhone, but I'd like to keep the code away from the designer as much as possible,
Actionscript 3 :: Splitting Values And Putting It In A Text Box ?

array.push(Number(t3.text));[code]........
But now I need to know how to do the same thing for any dynamic value that is entered.Say I have a text box tt1 and a button b1. When I enter any value (say 6) this number of text boxes are created (6 new text boxes with names t0,t1....t5)I have another text box tt2 and a button b2. When i enter a set of values in it (say 10,66,33,45,2,4) I need these values to get displayed in those text boxes t0,t1,t2..

snd.addEventListener("complete",loaded);
