ActionScript 3.0 :: View Same Movieclip At Multiple Positions?
Feb 22, 2011
i want to have the same movieclip showing up multiple times at different locations on the screen. i don't want to create multiple instances just cuz it seems less "efficient", so it'd be neat if there's a way to do this.essentially what i'm trying to do is have a the user see the same movieclip but with different things on top of the movieclips, and if the user does something to do the movieclip in one location (ie: click to change a tile in the movieclip), i want that to take effect in all locations.i could just add event listeners to each tile in all the movieclip to have the same effect independent of which movieclip you click the tile in, but i'm hoping i can avoid this.

I've 6 different movieclips on stage, with one main focal movieclip in the center. What i need is that when clicking on the surrounding movieclips they animate in to swap their position with the main focal movieclip, which then animates to take it's replacements former position. So after a few mouse clicks all of the movieclips could have had their position shuffled from it's original location.
I know i've seen a similar thing on a photo gallery where the current photo is swapped with whatever thumbnail is clicked on but can't seem to find an example.
Currently i have the positions of the movieclips controlled by variables, the animation handled by tweener, and can quite happily find the position/scale etc of the movieclip that get's clicked on, but can't figure out how to get the focal movieclips details as it might never be the same movieclip.

I'm building a game that will be using a bitmap to render the environmental scene. the bitmap is a black image with little green squares to indicate x,y place holders for tree locations as i render the scene. i was thinking of looping thru each pixel to find green pixels but this proves to be a performance hit when the image is 2500x2500. then i found what i thought was a handy little method called BitmapData.getColorBoundsRect() that will locate the position of the green box. It does this but it returns me 1 rectangle of all the green boxes inside.

I need to realize something like a multiple track player. The users can upload multiple tracks and start to play them together. My problem is to allow the user to define a start position of each track to allow a synchronization between them, something like this:
Track 1: start at [x] sec.
Track 2: start at [y] sec.
play/stop
where the user can input the x and y. I've tried with AS2 (using netstream and SetIntervall) and AS3 (using netstream or sound and timer). If I set the same x and y both tracks are playing simultaneously. But not if the x and y are different.

I have thumbs placed on the stage. I create an empty mc to load swf. But my thumbs disappear from the stage when I test the movie ( html or swf) if I settle the _ and _y position of the empty mc.why the emptymovieclip positions affect the positions of my thumbnails?

I've just added in a bubble effect I found here. At the moment the script creates bubbles randomly across the whole width of the stage. I want the effect to only occur between two x positions, say 50 and 845, on the stage. This is the Actionscript I have at the moment.
function bubbles(){
xpos = Stage.width*(Math.random());
xpos = Math.round(xpos);
_root.attachMovie("bubble", "bubble"+xpos, 999+xpos);
_root["bubble"+xpos]._x = xpos;
_root["bubble"+xpos]._y = 299;
} interval1 = setInterval(bubbles, 50);

I have a text movieclip (service_mc) on the stage for which I need to control 4 different _xpositions (_x = 0, _x = -700, _x = -1400, x = -2100) with 4 button mc's (btn_one, btn_two, btn_three, btn_four).
For these four buttons I already declared the Over, Out, Release and Restore stage in a function:
Code]...
What I like to accomplish is to control the _x positions of "service_mc" with the same buttons. I mean when btn_one is pressed service_mc should go to _x = 0, when btn_two is pressed the _x position from service_mc should change to _x = -700 etc, etc
How to integrate this possibility in the existing function?

I'm adding several similar movieclips to the stage with a 'for' loop. However, I'd like to increment the position of each movieclip when added on to the stage. I know exactly where I want each movie clip positioned as well. At the moment I just have a small 'for' loop which setups the movieclip. Like so...

i want to drag a movie-clip from A to B via different positions and on stop drag , the movieclip must go back to initial position ,via the same way traversed by the mouse and with the same speed. i did an example but it's not taking exactly the same speed and i'm not using classes(you will find it attached). i have to use classes in AS 3.0.

ActionScript Code:
for (var i:uint = 0; i<=8; i++)
{
zone[i] = new Zone();
}
I then have a long list adding and setting each mc position on the stage...
ActionScript Code:
stage.addChild(zone[0]);
zone[0].x=267.6;
[code]....
Although I've just had a thought as I was typing that last bit of code. Will I need to setup a for loop for each row...so the y position remains constant and I just increment the x value for each movie clip, and then repeat this for loop for the next row with the new y coordinate?

I want 3 movieclips to change positions (swap places) on the stage randomly when I push a button and make sure they are always in different positions, so they don't randomise the same way.
cat, dog, fish
position_a,position_b,position_c
position_b,position_c,position_a
position_c,position_a,position_b
then loop and randomize the position they popup in again. So I can just keep on clicking the screen and they always change.
xxxa
xxbx
cxxx
I will have the 3 movie clips on the stage with instance names.
position_a
position_b
position_c

is there a way to view all of the hit spots with in the project at the same time? I have multiple hit spots attached to various buttons and it would be ideal to view them all at the same time to ensure I am not overlapping.

I'm developing a Flex/AIR application that's growing big, and some of the components need to be seen from different points of view (i.e Admin, Staff, User, Guest). I've seen myself placing code in those components to handle what the user can and can't see. But it's becoming unmanageable as the code and the roles grow bigger. I was wondering what's the best way to implement multiple views inside the components while keeping them as reusable as possible.
What I'm doing right now:
<mx:HBox width="100%" horizontalAlign="right" visible="{_view == TS_VIEW || _view == PRJ_VIEW}"
includeInLayout="{_view == TS_VIEW || _view == PRJ_VIEW}">
<mx:Button label="Agregar" click="button1_clickHandler(event)"
enabled="{_state != ADDING_STATE && !_loading && _canAdd}"/>
</mx:HBox>

I have a flex application in which I have a TabNavigator with multiple tabs and a datagrid in each of those tabs. I have bound s single array of data to each grid.
What I want to do is to bind each grid with a particular set of data in that array i.e. to distribute array contents among grids based on data type. For example items starting with letter A could be displayed in first grid, B in second, starting with C in third and so on. Hence you can say alphabetically distribute the data on different grids. The problem is that the data will be added randomly by the user.
To make one data array for each grid is not an option (due to design restrictions).

I have an application that takes the user through a set of steps, configuring a product, say about 10+ screens. With options to go back, skip to a certain point etc. I need to fade between these steps, and also have language switches available at any point.
I was thinking of using an MVC style pattern, having a master view that accepts a 'next view' and fades it in, removing the old.
It feels bloated to have 10+ separate view classes, using similar components for this task, so was wondering what other approaches there are that I should look into? or one that is suited for this kind of application

apologies if this question doesn't seem very clear, i'm finding it difficult to describe what i mean.can i make object move 'out of view' in a movieclip?for example, in the same waya movieclip can move offstage, i'm trying to find a way to make the content of a movieclip move out of view to the side but within the scope of the movieclip.so if i have a square movieclip size x=100 y=100 with a circle size 10 in the centre, i'm trying to make it so when my circle moves to the left more than the size of the movieclip it starts to move out of view.another example would be if i had a character on a television (the screen being the movieclip

Here is the set-up.
I have a scene where there are 10 artist names. Each artist name is a button with a rollover image. The first artist name has an uploadMovie command in the timeline to show an image immediatly when the user opens the page.
_root.attachMovie("anne_01", "screen",1);_root.screen._x =417.9;_root.screen._y =135.7;
How do I unload that movieclip when the user scrolls over the nine remaining buttons? I know it is an unload command but I am not sure what the code should be or where I should put it. I have tried to put an unload command on the other buttons but I had no luck~

I'm about to have to write a web page/app that will serve the agenda for circa 100 people on a page. One line per person, one column per day with 3 clickable zones in each cell. In HTML, the page is way complex for the browser to load quick and there is no possibility to click on a border between 2 cells to for example split an event that spreads among several cells. So I search an not too overkilling technology to render this kind of view. I begun with a PHP generated HTML page but the number of elements in the page make the mouse move jerky.
Moving to JAVA would give me better performances regarding the reuse of the generator of the view but it will still be an HTML page. So, here is my question: do you think that going forward with JAVA and its graphical capability is the simple solution or is Flash a better option for this part of a Web App? I'm afraid of the code I'll have to write in JAVA to handle the GUI presentation as well as the events generated by the 1000's cells plus borders of the page. In Flash, the graphical part seems simpler even if the actions handling is still huge.

I'm currently using RobotLegs with the Presentation Model pattern to develop a Flex 4 project. I understand that all business logic related to a View resides in the Presentation Model associated with that view, however, I am confused when it comes to View specific logic.For example, I have an indicator that needs to be positioned relatively to list items depending on which list item is selected. Is it acceptable in the Presentation pattern to put the logic that will position the indicator in the View and simply have that logic run in reaction to a selectedIndex property changing in the presentation model?The reason I am considering this is that since the Presentation Model does not have a reference to the view it is difficult to come up with an ideal solution for manipulating view components.

I tried modifying the line as well. It also doesnt work.
navigateToURL(new URLRequest ("http://engineering/history/thisyear/ceomessage.htm"), "_blank");

I have one .mxml file (the Application) with a ViewStack (with 4 views) and a ControlBard, obviously I can change the views with it, but what I want to do is: in view #1 I have an image which I want to convert to a "hyperlink", so when I click it I go to View #2, is this doable? Also I would like to pass somehow some data (like a String) to that View #2 (lets say the it's a user avatar I click so I want to go to the second view which will show me his profile, that's why I need his name/id).

in flash, I encounted a source file that is cropped and I cannot move it, is there some sort of cropped view in flash I dont know about? I cannot find anyinformation about it, it has rulers displayed as far as I remember.
Basically you cannot move in the file to edit anything viewpoint wise, everything outside of the movie area is invisible and not there? As if cropped.

I have this four draggable movieclips. I have able to drag the green bar within the gray bar and the dynamic percentage text increase/decrease accordingly.
The program should make the second draggable determine the percentage of the first (100 - current value) and make it the basis for the other 3 draggable.
Example:
if the 1st draggable will be 75%. the other 25% will be divided by the other 3 draggables.
The 3rd draggable determine the 2nd percentage (100 - current value) and make it the basis for the other 2 draggable and so on.
When I drag the 1st draggable the other 3 is drag & animated accordingly but I cannot drag the 2nd, 3rd and 4th draggable.

I have a movieclip in the library that I am exporting for actionscript. I duplicate the movieclip by adding a child for each occurance of a tag in actionscript. This works fine, but I can't figure out how to change the y postion of each new child to be 30 pixels below form the last child. Here is a snippet of the code where I am having the problem:
for (var i in xmlData.region){ for (var k in xmlData.region[i].regionInfo.payment);
var mcRI:regionInfo = new regionInfo(); this.addChild(mcRI); mcRI.txtPayment.htmlText = xmlData.region[i].regionInfo.payment[k].card; mcRI.y += 30; }
}
Instead of each new child's y position changing +30, every duplicate is on top of each other at +30.
