I have a few mc's in the library ("mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4...) how can I attach them from the library to the stage randomly, but without getting it out of the stage and without overlapping to each other?
View 1 RepliesI got some movie clips with different shapes and I would like to make a pattern from those movie clips. I have assigned the x y co-ordinates of those movie clips with the Math.random function. However, the shapes overlap all the time, what can I do to avoid it? I have tried to do a hitTest, but then it doesn't work.

Someone has suggested that I could add the clips to a list after being randomised, then define the area which couldn't be place by the other movie clips. However, how can I define that area in AS3? I have tried to do the hitTest, but I am not too sure what should I do if it has detected a hit, since there's a probability that it will hit another shape.

View 6 RepliesI have a mc call mcA which visible and invisible alternatively on stage. I want to attach 10 mc (mc1-mc10) in library with this mcA. When mcA is visible it will attach mc4 in library then it is invisible again. The next time it is visible, it attach let say mc7 and so on, we do not know which mc it will attach in the next session it is visible.

how to make the random MCs appear from the library. And should I put the random moving script on each of my ten MC?
i'm trying to figure out how to reset or refresh clips that are dynamically attached to another clip based on records returned through xml.asically if the user chooses a different filter for the database query I need to be able to refresh a scrolling list made up of clips which will be different based on the filter.this is what I have for a function. I try to use "attachEmptyMovieClip" but to no avail
Code:
getAll=function(){
members = getMembers.firstChild.childNodes;

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a game where clicking an object causes cartoon animals to appear. The animals stick around and do a little animation for about 5 seconds, before disappearing. I'm having a problem where if I click the object before the animal disappears, another appears on top of it.This is my code:
on (release) {
i = Math.ceil(Math.random()*3);
if (i == 1) {[code]...........
I'm trying to find a way to make it so "on release" is disabled for a set period of time once it executes, enough time to ensure the animal movie clip playing has disappeared.
using 'drag and drop' in flash without overlapping?
For example - I have a list of buttons i drag to an area on the stage. I do not want my buttons to overlap.
I am facing the problem in showing Ajax Modal Popup Extender over Flash.when Popup comes out it will overlap by flash(Its giving me problem in IE 8,its work fine with the Firefox).
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip with hit zones over buttons. It looks like a cam corder and when you roll over them a thumb moves to that button and when you click. The thumb presses on the button. That all works great. I want to put buttons in the main scene over top of these that will change things on the screen when you click it. And get urls of the videos that I have on my website. But when I put the hitzones over other hitzones the ones in back dont work. Is there a way to make them both work or am I going to have to make everything contained in the movie clip? So in short can I have two buttons on top of each other that do two different things?
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to randomly position images on the stage without having the images overlap?
View 3 RepliesThis seems like such an easy thing to do but it's driving me crazy. Sorry if this is a simple question. In a site I am building it is necessary to have a large movieclip overlaid over an image gallery. This movieclip controls scrolling so has a rollover listener attached, but of course the gallery pictures also need to have button actions. I cannot get them both working at the same time. How can I make it so that rolling over a movieclip doesn't disable the rollover for any movieclips underneath it? Here is a very simple example of the problem. Where the two buttons intersect, I want for the rollover to trigger them both: [URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm using the drawing API features to do the following: I created two different squares and want to use them as two different canvas to draw on, they should be on top of each other so for testing purpose I overlap them partially here, but somehow I'm having trouble when trying to draw on the overlapped areas. Has any one encountered this problem or know how to solve it?

View 4 RepliesI'm having some performance issues in certain areas of a flash game Im making.
Here's the situation: I have big movieclip containing a map that can be scrolled and scaled. There are some pannels with a bunch of MC buttons, controls, etc. on the right side of the stage. These are seperate from the map and stay in the same place.
Everything runs fine untill the large map is zoomed in and/or scrolled such that the right side buttons and stuff are overlapping them map. Then the framerate jumps down from a nice smooth 30 fps to about 3 fps while the map is moving. There are no issues with the map moving when they don't overlap.
Now the thing is, is that's there's no real interaction between the buttons and the map. No transparency or anything, in fact I'm perfectly happy with the map dissapearing behind a side pannel. There are only about 3 pannels that the screen drawing routine would have to worry about, as all the buttons rest on top of the pannels, so why is my performance taking such a hit?
(Hmmm. Actually I do have a lot of transparency, but each is on top of a solid background, and none interact with the map.)
I wanted to know how to write As3 so that the sound that I place on a timeline doesn't overlap? Or is it best off the timeline? I've tried putting each song into it's own place on the timeline but there are labels and when a new song plays, the old one continues. If I just have one song on the entire timeline, whenever I move across different labels, the song overlaps.
View 4 RepliesI've created a banner and made the whole area clickable with an invisible button. But there's one small element in that banner I'd like to give a roll over state for extra fun. This element doesn't need a link hooked to it just to change colour when moused over. When I put the invisible button on top, it blocks the element on top the invisible button is not working either. Since it's a banner I have the document set up in as2.
View 4 RepliesThis only happens if I've just launched IE after being restarted and goes away once I refresh the page. I even added a jQuery $(document).ready function that sets a margin between the html and the flash content to add 1px of space when the page is loaded. It's so hard to figure out, because once I refresh the page, it goes away.########### SOLVED ###################### SOLVEDI set the flash output as a javascript var (actually json_encoded PHP output) and on document load inserted the object into the "flashContent" div with the jQuery.(document).ready event.
View 3 RepliesHow to stop MCs from overlapping each other?
[Code]...
This doesn't seems to be working cause the amount of it checking whether MC is overlapping is about the amount of MC on stage. how to make it keep checking till everything's fine?
I have a weather widget that is flash and expandable. one of the issues i had is when I expand the widget, it wouldn't expand passed the flash container size, so most of the content is cut up. I increased the size of the flash container and that worked. The problem is that the I have another facebook widget that is below the weather widget and that got pushed a lot. I moved the facebook widget up with a negative margin and now they are aligned fine. BUT i can't interact with the facebook widget. and I think the reason is that it is actually behind the flash container. it works fine on ie but i am trying to get it to work on chrome. I have changed the z-index to make the facebook widget on top of the flash, but the flash started to appear behind the facebook now.[URL]...
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to develop a textual analysis program that randomly displays words around the canvas. These words are different sizes.
I've been able to randomize the positions of the words around the screen, but often times, they are overlapping each other. I'm stuck on how to check if the words are overlapping, and if they are, to re-randomize again until the textfield square is in an open spot.
Im sure this has been asked a million times, so forgive me but I cannot seem to find an answer or my search query is wrong. I am using Tweener for animation.
I have 2 MC's on my stage. I have an event listener for my main MC (MOUSE_OVER, MOUSE_OUT) that triggers Tweener to animate another MC on top of the main clip. The problem is that when it overlaps the listener no longer works, and tried to execute the MOUSE_OUT. I understand why its not working, I just cant find a solution. Here is the code and a simple FLA.
ActionScript Code: import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
square.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, RollItIn, false, 0, true);
square.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, RollItOut, false, 0, true);
function RollItIn(evt:MouseEvent):void {
