I have an AS3 ResultEvent Object and this object has several propeties which can be accessed by this like:event.result.name or event.result.age and, I have this String variable: eventProperty:String that contains "name" or "age" How do I access to event.result. with the variable?
How can I access the member variable of an object by using a variable in the name.Example:
Entries Object has properties 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Normally I would access them by
var i : int = Entries.1;

I have a button inside a MovieClip (instance name: bt_fechar) and I want to refer to it from the main timeline (that's where I want to keep most of the code). It returns the following output error message: "Error #1065: Variable bt_fechar is not defined"
Heres the code:

How to access a local variable from another class? I have this powerup class that changes the speed value of the enemy in enemy class(it's a game). For instance, if player hits the powerup it changes the local variable 'speed's value inside enemy class.
View 3 RepliesOn the first frame I have a string variable called "nextSection". When the user clicks on a menu item on the site then "nextSection" is populated with the name of that section. Later on in the fla I have a movieclip containing various sections for the site. The swf compiles without any problems.
I'm now attempting to make the file smaller and easier to update. Rather than have 8 different movieclips that load images, I thought I would just have the one. I changed the following lines in my fla
PHP Code:
// nested within 2 movie clips (sections.aboutUs)loadImage("aboutUs/mainImage.jpg");//nested within 2 movie clips (sections.outdoorAdvertising)loadImage("outdoorAdvertising/mainImage.jpg");// there are 8 of these in total.
[code]...
I'm now getting the error "1120: access of undefined property nextSection". The variable does not contain anything when the file compiles. Only when the user clicks on a menu item does the variable get filled (ie: if user clicks on the OutDoor Advertising button, the variable contains the string "outdoorAdvertising" which is also a folder in the site directory). I tried to populate it with the name of one of the sections on the first frame ( ie: nextSection:String="aboutUs"; ) just to see if it worked but still got the error.
i have variable a=0 and i want a movieclip that runs to change it to 2, what do i write in the movieclip code ? i tried parent.a=2 but it's error.
View 4 RepliesI have a MovieClip who's added on stage by code.I would like to access to rond2(which are an instance of rond on frame 10) but one error appeared like you can see.This the code that i've maked on first frame on the scene:
var monCarre:MovieClip = new mv_carres();monCarre.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, leDire);
addChild(monCarre);monCarre.x=275;monCarre.y=200;//monCarre.rond2.alpha=0; <<<<L'éxécution de cette ligne provoque une erreur
function leDire(e:Event):void{ trace("monCarre est ajouté");}
Normally, I declare a variable at the very top of all my code like, var myObj: Myobj = new Myobj();...
but for some reason the the new variable being declared is necessary to present within the function, like displaying same objects in the library using for loop.
I notice that variable declare within a function will not be accessible outside the function or from another event handler or from another function....
I have seen code that make it possible my declaring a new variable?
I have a class with a var textFieldObjets:Textfield in my class environment. What I'd like to do, is access this var from another class and change the text. I tried things like

I can't even access my environment class...

View 1 RepliesI have 2 classes: A Main.as and XmlLoader.as. In Main.as I now want to access a variable of a XmlLoader-instance, which has been changed in run-time by a Event.COMPLETE EventListener.To make things clearer here some code:
Code:
Main.as:
package {
import flash.display.*;
[code]....
in Main.as I want to trace (trace(_xmlData._xml)) the xml file which is loaded.
function fn1(var2)
{
//here i want to trace the name of var1....ie output: "var1"
}
fn1(var1);
how to trace the variable name i am passing to fn1 (ie. var1) as string?
ie. output shoud be
"var1"
ie i want to trace the name of argument variable i am passing
[code]...
I keep on getting the output "undefined" everytime trace was called.
function loadHandler only runs one time .. since it runs only once it makes it very difficult for me to do anything with.I can only access the variable "myClip" inside of the function.... if I could access it outside of the function I would be able to write some if statements.Basically what I am trying to do ... is the first time this script runs ... I don't want "myClip.gotoAndPlay(2);" to run. Every other time this frame of code runs .. it wont run the function a second time. So I need to somehow tell it every time it runs after the first time to run the code myClip.gotoAndPlay(2);

I am trying to access a text object inside an MC inside a variable (with a corresponding Symbol name) after dynamically attaching an MC. the code that sets the "dockTemplate" variable is below. I'm trying to write to the "item" property called "label" on a rollover function called "dockRolls".
var dockTemplate = {
layout: 0
icon_size: 80,
icon_min: 50,

externally, there is another AS file that extends the MovieClip class which is setting up the functions, etc. in 'var dockTemplate'. that seems to be working fine. my question is:
HOW do I write to/access the text object 'orderEntry_txt' inside 'dockTemplate'?

View 4 Repliesi'm making a menu with flash cs5 using actionscript 2.0 for my game that can be use scaleform menu made it with flash, i have a little problem.
i have a layer called "action" in my timeline where is a function that receives from my game a variable value (slot) that indicates to the player if the slot is available to save a game or not.
i have another layer called "newgame", where are some controls, pictures and movie clips, when the player click on the marker in this layer, i need to load the "slot" variable from the layer called "action" to let the player save or not save the game, but i can figure out on how to get the value for the slot variable from the Action's layer.

I've done a pretty thorough search but I can't really find an answer to what I believe must be a common question. I have a simple variable defined in my Main class that loads an mp3. I'd like to be able to turn off the mp3 from within another class. Obviously, in order to do so, I need to be able to access that variable. How can one class "talk" to another? Or more specifically, how can I access a variable in my Main class to use in another class?
View 9 RepliesSo ive made a custom message system for my game and the scrollpane component requires me to have the info inside one movieclip. I have a couple of textfields there that i want to change to some variables on demand. The vars are in an external as file and im able to reference them well on the main timeline. The problem is when im inside the scrollable object, all the vars return blank instead. This is the code which is placed inside the object:
Code:
import Variables;
var variables:Variables = new Variables();
function setMsgSlot (e:Event) {

I am trying to set up a situation where a user types a date into a textbox on the main swf file and then clicks submit.

View 3 RepliesI am new to AS3 and am working on a project where I got stuck trying to figure out the best way to access a variable set in my MainDoc from a subclass. Nothing I've read has either made sense or seems like best practices. I understand a little about encapsulation to know that a subclass shouldn't be able to listen to a parent, but there has to be a way to do this with OOP in mind.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI have a movie clip I'm duplicating.
This movie clip is only one frame long and has a couple variables and functions in an actions layer on that first frame.
When I duplicate the movie clip I can't access either the variables on the timeline or the functions.
MovieClipA
var blee
var blah
var tempClip:MovieClip = MovieClipA.duplicateMovieClip('createdClip', 100);
trace(tempClip.blee) // This comes back undefined.
Is it not possible to retain the variables and functions inside a movie clip when it gets duplicated?
I know you can define the variables and functions after the duplication but I'd like to be able to have them almost like class attributes / methods for when a new clip is duplicated.
Is there a way to access a variable via a String? Something like this:
HTML Code:
var myVar1:Int = 1
var myVar2:Int = "myVar1" as variable name
This is obviously doesn't work (and in this case pointless), but is there a way to do this?

newnode.name=i;
addChildAt(newnode,i);
newnode.1.x=10;
