ActionScript :: Navigating Long Scripts By Locking Selections (Collapse/Expand)?
Oct 11, 2010
if there's one thing i miss about native programming for Mac OS X using Objective-C and XCode, it's the ability to set #praga marks (essentially bookmarks) to easily navigate thru long scripts via the pull-down menu.
in Flash Authoring CS5 i can can collapse/expand selections of code, but these are removed when the selection is removed - whenever an edit is made. using collapse/expand selections would be an ideal equivalent to XCode's #pragma marks if it was possible to lock these sections so they don not disappear when the selection disappears, but as far as i know it's not possible?

Using a large amount of formatted text, is it possible to make titles or headlines within the text clickable? Once clicked, the portion of text would expand and collapse accordingly. The text field would likely include around 80 headlines. I found code to show/hide a string of text, but not formatted tlf text.

I have created a tree with a custom treeitemrenderer where I have added a textinput box next to each label. My data provider is an ArrayCollection. When I enter value in the input box, I can see the value fine as I expand or collapse the tree using the disclousure arrow. There is a strange issue when I try to expand and collapse tree from the mxml page with a button click to expand and collapse tree using the following code.
The problem is as I expand or collapse tree, the values I entered in the input boxes appear to be moving.
For example, I have entered 15 in input box 1. When I expand and collapse tree, 15 moves to another input box, and moves to another, and then it moves back to where it was entered as I keep expanding and collapsing the tree. I am still learning Flex. I am not sure what is happening, it is something to do with arraycollection.

My FLA file is based in CS5 with AS3. I posted this in the AS3 forum but if it can be done without AS3 then I am open to that possibility as well.
I am creating a non-functioning form, meaning I just need it to look like a form but the functionality doesn't need to work. Atleast not in this stage of development.[code]...

I am having some trouble with the flex Tree control.I have a control in my system and of course it is data driven.I have a group which shows a folder icon and that's fine but it also shows an expand icon when the item has no children.I don't what it to show the expand icon when the group has no children but I do want to show the folder icon, because it is different entities in my system.

I am currently working on an XML navigation component and am having problems making it collapse and expand correctly with easing animation. I have no problems when it goes two levels, but it messes up on the tertiary navigation, and I REALLY NEED three levels in this thing. Here are links to my swf files to demonstrate it working without animation, and broken with the animation. Also linked is my source file for anyone to look at and debug. If anyone can fix this, well, they'll have a component for a dynamic generating menu with as many levels of subsections through xml.
Otherwise, would anyone know where I could find a collapsible xml menu with three levels sub navigation (like a section with a subsection that has another subsection)? The other ones are only two! Anyways, here are the files:

I'm in the middle of creating a tree menu that needs to expand/collapse when items are selected. I'm drawing all my info from a DB via sendAndLoad. I'm having alot of problems getting the "math" right for the menu tho. If you look at the attached movies (play main.swf, which loads 1.swf) and click on Villas, you'll see what I mean. I need to have each of these items expand/collapse when they are clicked on. There will never be more then one layer under each main country, so it only has to do the expand/collapse when clicking a country.

I'm trying to play a 10 minute long video (h264/mp4) which is 39MB in size, after I call stream.play(fileURL) it doesn't start playback until its loaded around 12-16MB of the file (many many seconds later), I finally get onMetaData at this point too. Why doesn't it begin playback right away, or at least w/in a couple seconds? What can cause this bloated lead in time?

I'm not that knowledgeable with AS, but what I'm trying to do is display my selections from an array. Basically, there are some checkboxes -- from there the user ticks a few boxes, submits their preference and then the system tells them what they have chosen and acts accordingly. In this case, the reason there is an array is because the user is selecting which videos they want to watch, and the videos will then play after each other, once one of the videos has come to an end. At the minute, initially the array is set up, the user ticks the boxes, submits, then their options are added to the array. I'm having difficulty looping through the array to find only the values that have been chosen.

I am having some problems with a small survey swf i am making in actionscript 3. I have multiple choice questions on different frames using radio buttons and i need the users selections shown in a dynamic text button along each frame and also on the last frame of the survey.
Another problem i am getting is i need the last radio button clicked to be stored, so if the user clicks lets say 'rb_2' on frame 1, clicks next to go to frame 2, then if they were to go back to frame 1 again 'rb_2' is still selected.
Thought it would be easy using the 'Shared Object Class' but from reading tutorials i cannot get it working.

I have a Main Menu swf with Menu selections. When you click on the Menu1 button it launches a separate swf file that will be doing allot of things. I have buttons, video etc. All with some sort of a addEventListener attached to them. Because the Main Menu is running and you have the option to select another button, which launches another swf, I am unloading the current swf. I can tell the video is still running in the previous swf because you can hear it. I use the SoundMixer.stopAll() and that stops the video. But what about all those addEventListeners?
This is what loads the external swf (Main Menu).
Lesson = external swf
var myLesson:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(myLesson);
myLesson.x = 205;
myLesson.y = 30;
[Code] .....
This is what unloads the external swf: I call this in a couple of places depending if the selection is in another external swf.
myLoader.unload();
I also have been noticing that the naming of instances is increasing allot in a few of my lessons. Don't know if that has an impact on anything or not. How do you control events running in a separate external swf from a Main swf or stop, remove them.

I have a grid made from dynamic boxes and I need to check each box to see if it is selected or not to perform a function..
Problem is I have 60 boxes in the grid - in the code below, there are only the boxes which need to be selected !
I still need to add the other 54 boxes and set them as .chosen = false;
Surely there's a more efficient way of doing it than my code ??
if(event.currentTarget.parent.getChildByName("m1").chosen == true && event.currentTarget.parent.getChildByName("m2").chosen == true && event.currentTarget.parent.getChildByName("m3").chosen == true &&

I have a comboBox that I need to associate different email addresses with the different selections (the "selections" are the labels of the comboBox - not the data... the data fields for the comboBox are blank). right now, as written it returns "email2" no matter which I pick.
Code:
if (comboBoxName.getValue() == (("selection1") || ("selection2") || ("selection3") || ("selection4") || ("selection5") || ("selection6") || ("selection7") || ("selection8"))) {
var comboSelectionEmail = "email1";
} else {
var comboSelectionEmail = "email2";
}
Also, is there an easier way to do this than by using the if statement?

I just got CS4 and was following some tutorials for what I wanted to do. I Created a button and then inside of that button I created a movie clip in the keyframe "Up." In that movieclip I created a keyframe at frame 10 and created motion tween. I went to put a stop action in frame 10 and it says the current selection can not have action applied to it. I cant write any code for the button at this stage and I am not sure why.

I have an AdvancedDataGrid which Im attemping to update with data from a web service that I poll once very 10 seconds. Im using a HierarchicalData object to provide data to the grid. The update seems to work fine, except that on each update, any nodes that were expanded are collapsed when the grid is refreshed. Stranger still, when I dig down into the bowels of the thing and look at the contents of the HierarchicalCollectionView that backs the grid, I can see that the openNodes property correctly contains the nodes that I opened, but those nodes are not shown as open on the grid...the state seems inconsistent.

Im creating a little flash swf for a website of mine, but when i zoom in or out of the website (ctrl, +) the text moves and you can see outside elements of the canvas. what is the code to lock the canvas?
i thought i was: stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE; but that isnt doing anything.
[URL] shows you what i mean, it is the text at the top that starts with loading...
