i try to migrate from as2 to as3 and i have one problem When i attachMovie from library (addChild in as3) and i add custom property its work fine.Here is ex.
Code:
var i:int;
for (i=0; i<5; i++)[code]....
when i attach to that symbol custom class in the library.i got the error: #1056:Cannot create property...
why I'm getting "error 1056:Error #1056: Cannot create property login on lash.net.SharedObject." when i try running this code (client-side):Username is a input text box.Password is a input text box.debug is a text area.the enlarged text is the code that is failing.
Code:

I'm getting this error but not sure how to change it from a string. I can 'trace("myfilling: " + myfilling);' and this outputs the instance I want to change the X and Y position of fine but when I try to do myfilling.x = leftBaseX, it throws up the error:

I'm creating a website and I have several flash files. I have the main flash file and then sub pages are loaded into the main flash files as external swfs.To make things clear, I have got site.swf (the main file) and news.swf (a sub section).Now in the news file, I am attaching a movieclip item from the Library. I have set the class name of the Movieclip and the base class for the movie I want to attach. Now in this movieclip I am attaching, I have got various other movieclips inside it. Everything works fine inside the news file.When I load the news file inside the main website (site.swf), it is giving me an error:
Code:
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property test2 on com.esprit.ui.content.company.news.NewsMC.

I try to load swf files to keep them and load in different frames, so i created a SWFManager Class(Singleton) to have access to all keyframes, because I want to switch between swf files like "views"(like ViewStack in Flex) I have 8 SWF files evriting is loading fine except the FLVPlayback 2.5 componet, when swf file is loaded, controls for play, pause and seek bar are gone and I get this error message.

I create a shape, and I want to move it with a ENTER_FRAME event, like this:
public function makeShape(){
var myShape=new Shape();
addChild(myShape);
[code]....
But what if I want to pass a variable with my shape to the event function. Say my shape has a no or a name or anything like a data; so I rewrite the code;
public function makeShape(){
var myShape=new Shape();
myShape.thisShapesNo=50;
[code]....
See the extra workload.. And the other way (and I've never tried) is to write your own event function where you can pass variables.. I guess something like this:
myShape.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveMyShape, 50 );
So it seems like this is another extra workload for the code.And so here is my question: How can I add a you-name-it property to any thing I've created in AS3?
I am trying to tween some text and keep getting the error.
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property alpha on builtin.as$0.MethodClosure.[code].....
I fixed the last error message, but I still cant get the xml to load, I am getting this error message now. I am trying to load the title of a video reel onto a button and load a corresponding move, 1 of 4...getting this error now.

This is the correspoding codeits referring to:

var name_txt:String = vidList_XML.vid[i + count].file;
var reelTitle = this["vid" + (i + 1)].name;
reelTitle.text = name_txt;
}}
I have an AS3 script that calls an XML but when compiling I get this error

I have this error when running my application on debug mode :
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property root on MyClass.
The problem is that MyClass doesn't contain any root property and i don't know how it get it,
I have isRoot property at the Java Class with setRoot setter and isRoot methods,
at the flex side i have isRoot as public without getter and setter.... could the problem be just convention names compatibility

View 8 RepliesI'm using AS 3 in Adobe Flash 9 Public Alpha. I have a MovieClip named "RandImg" in my Library with an associated "RandImg.as" class file. I'm placing this MC on the stage during design time. This MC contains an instance of another MC with with the instance name of "mcDefault". In the constructor of my RandImg.as class file, if I attempt to reference mcDefault, I get the following error when I try to compile: ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property mcDefault on RandImg. How do I reference this movie clip in AS 3?

First let me warn you that I'm "old school" i.e. code is on my timeline and the only classes used were those automatically created when I added several new fonts to Script1.swf which is my movieclip for embedded fonts.
On the first frame of my main movieclip which is named Round.fla, I have loaded Script1.swf that contains the fonts using the loader object. I'm using a trace statement that shows that Script1_lb.swf is loaded.
I am using a listbox (script1_lb) with movieclip icons (jpg picture of the sample font) and the data is the name of the font class, like this: script1_lb.dataProvider.addItem( {icon:akaDora_mc, data:"akaDora"} );

I'm having an issue using a class I've created as the base class for library symbols: I've created a class AvSkin which will act as the display for an instance of AvChild. It looks like this:
package avian.environment.skins
{
import flash.display.DisplayObject;[code]....
Is there a way around this? I don't want to do either of the following:
Make AvSkin extend MovieClip.
Create a class for my library symbol that extends AvSkin.
I am new to AS3, as well as Flash in general, so forgive me if this seems highly elementary. All I am trying to do is create a custom class that extends the MovieClip class and contains a custom property of "marker". I want to be able to use and change the value of this custom property on the timeline for an instance of this class and have it behave just like any other (Ex: this.x ==> this.marker).

Library symbol "Card" is linked to class "Card" which extends "MovieClip". Library symbol "Card" contains a card background image.Library symbol "Ace" is linked to class "Ace", which extends class "Card". Library symbol "Ace" contains a TextField with a big letter "A".So we have Ace extends Card which extends MovieClip. Ace therefore extends MovieClip, but does not DIRECTLY extend MovieClip.When I drop an instance of Ace on the stage and compile the clip, all that shows up is the big letter A. However, I expected the background image from Card to be included, since Ace extends Card, and the Card symbol contains the background.It seems like Flash ignores symbol content unless it belongs to the top-level class being instantiated.I think it's LAME that one symbol can't extend another. The IDE could easily draw Card as a non-editable background while I'm editing Ace which extends it, and it should instantiate Card's content and then Ace's content when an Ace is instantiated.
View 3 RepliesIs there a point of creating custom event class if i dont need to pass custom property with that event?
View 3 RepliesWhen you attach a movieclip taken from the symbol library to the Stage, by using the attachMovie function and its Linkage name, do you have to - previously - place a dummy instance of the mc anywhere on that Stage to get it works ?
View 5 RepliesRunning Flash CS3, I've reviewed the lynda.com tutorial on building particle systems in ActionScript 3.0 to try and build some shooting sparks in an animation.I'm getting stuck at what I think is a really elementary point, but I can't seem to get past it.
Basically, all I'm trying to do at this point is create a class called Particle (which I will teach to do things that particles do a little later) link it to a MovieClip on the stage in my .fla file and use the particle's update function to move it across the stage in a manner defined in the instance (so I can later give different movement properties to each AS generated instance of the MC). I know there are easier ways to accomplish my base task without loading an external package, but this seems so strightforward that I must be doing something very simple wrong I just can't see so I thought I'd post the code here and see what I'm missing.
I start with a file called Particle.as in the same folder as my Spark Test.fla file.
In Particle.as I have the following code:
package{ import flash.display.*; public class Particle extends MovieClip { public xVelocity:Number; public yVelocity:Number; public function Particle() { xVelocity = 0; yVelocity = 0; } public function update():void { this.x += xVelocity; this.y += yVelocity; } }}
So I'm declaring that all particles are built with no motion, but if they are explicitly granted an x or y velocity, they will move by that much when the instance's update function is called in the timeline.
Then in my Spark Test.fla file, I have a small shape in a MovieClip called Spark. In the Linkage properties of Spark I have chosen to Export for ActionScript and Export in FIrst Frame. The class is called Spark and the Base class is Particle. For testing purposes I've dropped an instance on the stage and called it spark. Then in the actions layer in the first frame (the timeline is just the spark layer and the actions layer, one frame long each with no "stop();" so it should run forever) I have included the following code:
spark.xVelocity = 5;spark.yVelocity = -1;
function updateSpark(event:Event):void{ spark.update();}
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, updateSpark);
What it looks like this should do is on each ENTER_FRAME Flash should call updateSpark which is a function that runs the update() event for the spark instance which is a instance of a movieclip that has an update event which moves x and y position by their relative velocity variables. This all seems pretty straightforward to me, but when I ctrl-Enter to test the movie, I get the following 3 compiler errors:
Particle.as Line 1: 5000: The class 'Particle' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.
Particle.as Line 7: 1071: Syntax error: expected a definition keyword (such as function) after attribute public, not xVelocity.
Particle.as Line 7: 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightbrace before semicolon.
Getting this error when instantiating this class. It's set up in my FLA as the document class:
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property tab0 on

I am trying to create a custom class of my AS3 XML News Ticker. I am getting the error "1120: Access of undefined property" for references to objects which are already on the stage i.e. not dynamically created. I am pretty sure that it is an encapsulation issue.
View 7 RepliesHow I can create a MovieClip Symbol and put it into the Library using ActionScript?
I want to do this so I can dynamically create content for a ScrollPane.
I couldn't work it out yet...
package components {
public class templateSelection extends VBox {
static public var tempSelectionBag:Dictionary;
[Code]....
I want to have a custom class tempSelection with a Dictionary as a public accessable property of that class. If I use this code, the compiler tells me:
1046: Typ wurde nicht gefunden oder war keine Kompilierungszeit- onstante:Dictionary
Which translates to:
Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Dictionary
When you import a PNG into the library, Flash creates a symbol as well. It doesn't do this for JPGs, so I'm wondering if there's a setting that I can change that. I don't want it to create a new symbol. If it can't be changed, can anyone tell me why it does it for PNG and not JPG?
View 4 RepliesI've been playing around with custom classes. My objective was to create a custom class (Testing) that would create a box when an instance of the class is created. I've tried three different approaches, however only (3) seems to be showing up. I'm just curious why (1) or (2) doesn't work?
Also is there a better approach than (3)? Since at the moment it's been created on _root. I hope the box can only be accessible through the instance. Since I'd like to incorporate the whole idea of public, private, encapsulation, etc.

I have a movieclip library symbol exported for ActionScript with name McFloor and identifier McFloor and I'd like to access it from OneChart class.

Can any answer the following questions and maybe point me to a "for dummies" tutorial on 'Classes'. I have the books but they have seemed to disappoint me. Unfortunately I can never ask "why" when reading a book.
1) Does a Class file need to be attached to a library symbol?
2) How do you know what to import?I know this sounds funny but should you always import flash.display.MovieClip? I just want to create a line using a class to begin with and call it from a flash swf with two parameters (start and end).Wouldn't it only need to be a import flash.display.Graphics
3) What is "Base class is final."? Anybody had this error before?[code]
