Actionscript 2.0 :: Using XML To Assign URL To Movieclip Button In Carousel?
Feb 13, 2009
I just completed the carousel menu tutorials 1 and 2, and I'd like to adapt the menu for my own use. I want to have each button go to a different URL when clicked, and I've assigned a URL to each button in my XML document under the name "URLREF" (because flash would assume URL wasn't an identifier.How can I tell flash (Using CS3 and AS2) to read the URLREF values for each button, and then tell it to open those URLs in a new window when their buttons are clicked? (note - The getURL should, as far as I'm aware, be in the function "released," where my "tooltext" trace is.)Here's my actionscript: (and XML a little further down.)
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 300;[code]................

I am very new to flash and AS and I have been going through a video tutorial that was done in AS2 (I believe). I did what the tutorial told me to do but when I tested it at this point, it came back with an error: The class or interface 'item' could not be loaded.[code]...

Here is the code that I have so far for the carousel project I am working on. I have been using the sites carousel video tutorials but I am stuck at this point.
/*variable which stores how many items in carousel*/
var numOfItem:Number = 1;
/*variable which indicates how wide and how tall the carousel to be*/
var radiusX:Number = 250;

I'm not very good in as or flash, but I'm learning. What seems to be a problem with that 3D carousel is:I would like to add close button when you want to go back to carousel after you click on carousel element (but it doesn't work as I would like to). The problem is that when I click on my button it returns to carousel, but carousel doesn't spin and also the last clicked element it's out of position. What I did is I'm calling the function unReleased which is working perfectlly when you clicked on the carousel element.[code]

I'm trying to achieve the same effect as the carousel on this site: [URL]. Only different thing I'm trying to do is not have it auto scroll, but to have a left and right button. I have tried using the Carousel 3 tutorial and modifying the code but I keep running into problems and I am a little lost getting the blur effect going and getting the z-index (ie items get smaller as they rotate to the back similar to the example above).

, i want to make a carousel -type gallery like the one from the tutorial but with a slight variation: i want it to move only when i press a button.(move left when i press the left arrow and to the right when i press the right).And i want it to move by one image at a time and i want to know which image is to the front(i've created a dynamic text field called imgName).I hope i'm explaining this correctly and i'm attaching an example with two arrows with no actions on them.

I am new to AS3 and, I am just trying some simple(maybe) functions. Is it possible to assign values to a movie clip? I have three buttons and I want each one to have a value (1, 2, and 3). I tried
var buttonOne = 1 and I get this error "ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property buttonMode on Number."
How do I assign a value to a movieClip(if possible)?

for (var j:Number = 0; j<myObj.rows; j++) {
var clip:String="clip"+j
_root.re1.reel1.clip.loadMovie("images/jackpot/"+display_array[j*5]+".jpg");}
This is my for loop and my movieclip path is _root.re1.reel1.clip0 to _root.re1.reel1.clip3
So how can assign clip no?

When I worked with Flash CS3 and CS4, you could click on an element (such as a photo or a button) and a URL field would appear within the properties pane. From there, you could assign a URL to this element. I'm trying to figure out how to do this in CS5, but I can't find any way of doing it without actions
Is there anyway to simply assign a URL to an element in CS5?

When I add a filter (for example drop shadow) to my movieclip on the stage (using the Flash GUI), all its children automatically has applied the filter.
Is it this a correct behavior ? How can assign the filter only to the parent movieclip?

I have a problem that should have a simple solution but I cant seem to figure it out. Basically I need to assign a movieclip a number value to that it will carry with it so I can later compare it to the number value of another movieclip.
Here is the snippet of my class code. I got a loop that creates a new object and adds it to the stage and then positions it. It all works accept for when I try to assign the i value to _dragHead.HIT (HIT is not a movieclip nested within the _dragHead object by the way). I just want each newly added movieclip to carry a unique number value so how would I achieve this?
ActionScript Code:
private function createTerms():void
{
for (var i:Number = 0; i < termsArr.length; i++)
[Code].....

I'm currently just testing a few items in Flash. While I'm in this early stage, it'd be quite handy for this particular project if there were a way to assign events to every item in a certain MC (or on _root).
Here's what I've done thus far:
Code:
for (movieClip in _root) {
movieClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(2); };
movieClip.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
[Code] .....
If I trace I can clearly see the instance names of the MCs (which means it works -- sort of), but no matter what I've tried I can't get the events to bind to the on-stage MCs.

After learning about classes and stuff, I've successfully create a movieclip with XML reading an all thru the use of classes. My problem is when I move to different frames, the movieclip I made stays there blocking whatever there is in the other frame.
Anyway I can hide all those created movieclips when I got to different frame? Maybe by assigning it to a frame/layer maybe?
Just in case you're wondering, I create the movieclip using the following code:
Code:
var header:blogHeader = new blogHeader();
...
this.addChild(header);

how I can assign a movieclip instance name to a variable, so that I can use reference it?
For example:
var mcName:String = "box2_mc"
mcName.play();
It wont work and I get the error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type String.
Should I define it as another datatype?

Sure this will be a simple fix, and I'm just not seeing the wood for the trees. I have a movie with a movieclip called scroller_mov. Inside it are 15 movieclips named pic1 thru pic15.
My code is on one frame, on the same level as scroller_mov. Just want to dynamically assign a click action to the pic1 - pic15 movieclips! have tried hardcoded links and dynamic, but no joy! Everything else works fine.

In Flash Professional, I have a MovieClip and that clip has children. Let's say the parent clip is a night sky and the children are different instances of a star MovieClip that animates in a loop. This whole thing compiles down to a NightSky.swc which I use in Flash Builder as part of a larger project.
In Flash Pro, I position the child clips with a high level of precision. From there, I want to assign properties to these "stars." Say, I want to assign "galaxyId" and "isRedGiant" but (and this is key) I want to edit those properties in Flash Professional and have those value accessible in Flex.[code]...

I create various movieClips with TextFields in them using the following function.
function AddLabel(Label,L) // create a MovieClip with a Text Field. {
obj = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc" + L,L);
var tf = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "Arial";
tf.size = 12;
[Code] ....
Lets say that I use the above function with the following statement:
JimMC = AddLabel("JimVision",1);
Then I try to assign a string to the above movieClip with some embedded html like so:
JimMC.txt.htmlText = "This is my test < a href='[URL]'>link</ a>.";
When I try to run the above the results come out blank. When I list my variables I do see that my TextField is being assign the text and html code. What I also notice is that the textWidth and textHeight value become zero. Why my results are blank? Why do the textWidth and textHeight values become zero?
