Actionscript 3 :: Cast A String As An Array?

Mar 1, 2012

I have 5 different arrays for a bunch of excercises, like so:

const oef1:Array = ["citroen","schoen","boek"];
const oef2:Array = ["huis","muis","jas"];
const oef3:Array = ["boek","koek","sok"];
const oef4:Array = ["ei","bij","bot"];
const oef5:Array = ["vier","mier","muur"];

Now I want to set the current game. I do this by copying the array, like so:

var curArr:Array;
var curExc:int = 1;
curArr = ("oef" + curExc) as Array;

I can't convince flash to accept the string ("oef"+curExc) as an Array. How do I do this?

I have searched Stack Overflow extensively but I think I simply don't know the correct lingo for what I'm looking for. It's the only possible reason I can think of why I can't find the answer here because I'm sure someone must have already tried this.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Way Of Dealing With 'implicit Coercion' Of Array To Sprite?

Apr 18, 2011

With continued help from this forum I am getting closer to having a working program. I look forward to being able to help others like myself once I finish learning the AS3 ropes.I have created a 12 x 9 random number grid that populates each cell with a corresponding image based on each cell's numeric value. I have also created a shuffle button that randomizes the numbers in the grid. The problem I am running into is getting my button-click event to clear the current images off the grid in order to assign new ones (i.e. deleting the display stack objects in order to place news ones in the same locations).My question is this: what is the best way to handle an implicit coercion from an array to a sprite? I have pasted my entire code below so that you can see how the functions are supposed to work together. My trouble apparently lies with not being able to use an array value with a sprite (the sprite represents the actual arrangement of the grid on the display stack while the array starts out as a number than gets assigned an image which should be passed to the sprite).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Making A Sprite Move In Directions From A List In An Array?

Jan 26, 2007

I wanted a sprite to move round on the screen when a play button was pushed. I have a left and a right button which store strings "left" or "right" into the next positions of an empty array called history.

When i push the play button i want i want the sprite to move either left or right according to what commands are in the array. My code just seems to play one single command and then stops when i hit play again it just repeats the same command.

Is there any way to make it play through all commands in the array one after another?

Here's the loop that i was trying to use.

Actionscript 3 :: Class Extending Sprite - Set The Sprite's Width And Height Properties?

Mar 5, 2010

I created a class, extended the sprite class, and now in the constructor I am trying to set the Sprite's width and height properties which are inherited from the DisplayObject. However, after I set this.width and this.height, and print the values, I get 0 for both.

What the heck is going on? When I view the livedocs I see that DisplayObject has width and height listed as public properties. I have been able to instantiate a Sprite directly, and set the width and height after it's been instantiated, so I don't get it.

package {
import flash.display.*;
public class ScrollBar extends Sprite {[code].....

Flash :: Rotating Sprite Moves The Sprite From It's Original Location

Jul 6, 2011

I'm doing a simple rotation on a sprite but there's a weird behavior where the sprite does not rotate around it's top left. I think I'm rotating along the top left of the test class instead of the sprite child. I would like to rotate the rectangle around it's top left corner (kinda like a clock hand). The code is pretty short so I'll let the code + pictures explain my problem:

package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;

[Code]....

I've read a lot of stuff about rotating around a fixed point, I've tried doing it with movieclips instead of sprites, I even copy pasted a tutorial on rotation and nothing works.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Sprite.addChild(NumericStepper) Resizes Sprite To 100x100

May 27, 2008

[Code]...

Then the numericStepper is drawn as if it is squished to 20% its normal height. If I pre-set mySprite width and height before adding the numericstepper, the trace output is 0,0 after adding it and it is not displayed at all. Is there some way I can make the sprite only adjust to correctly fit the numericStepper OR resize it afterwards without distorting the numericStepper component?

i have a list of items that get returned from a database.  the list is composed of strings. what i need to do is convert each item into a variable so that i can use each item as an array.
 
for instance, my array will look something like this: deviceArray = ["osx106", "osx107", "winxp", "win7"];
 
what i want to do is turn each item into its own array.  in AS2 (iirc) we had an eval() method.  that is no longer supported in AS3.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cast Error When Redispatching Event?

Aug 24, 2009

Can someone explain me why when I listen for a custom event and then redispath it it is redispatched as an Event instead of an object of custom event type ?

Exemple : You make un custom event, name it CustomEvent.

In a first class you dispatch an instance of this event and it is managed by a method in a second class, let's say this one :

[Code]...
 
I missed probably something in event dispatching process but I don't know what. However I found a solution : In the first event manager, dispatch a copy of the custom event received instead of dispatching the object itself. It works in this case.
