I have been trying to display a bounding box (free transform box) for a MovieClip at runtime whenever I click on it but am completely lost. The reason why I would like to display it is to do transformations on a MovieClip at runtime.
View 2 RepliesI have a blank FLA. with document class index. I have an AS file name index saved in same folder. My custom package looks like this, but the movieClip does not display at runtime. I'm just trying to begin work with OOP and custom classes and I'm not sure why this isn't working for me:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class index extends MovieClip {
public function Main () {
var D:MovieClip = new dMC();
D.x = D.y = 100;
addChild(D);
}}}
Is it possible to make a bounding circle instead of a bounding box?The objects should bounce INSIDE the circle.I have now a bounding box outside the circle, but the objects exceeds the circle at the corners.
I was thinking of making an array of Points on the edge of a circle and when the object is < or > then do something... but that would be a lots of if/else statements.
Anyone know of a method whereby when i click on a movieclip on my stage i can create a bounding box which will allow me to click on any corner and re size the box manually......?
View 1 RepliesI'm making a simple platformer. I have an array holding what my level looks like and my main character is a horse.... okay it's a unicorn... anyways, Whenever I jump to a platform the hittest is saying that he has landed even though his head or his tail is just over the edge... I'm trying to make it so that only his feet will allow him to land.

This is my code so far and I can zoom in and out but I can keep going and going. I want that he stops after 200% or something and when he is 100% you cant zoom out more. Also I want a bounding so I cant move the MovieClip outside his own stage height and width.
package {
public class priyan {

The above script, i got it from one of the ActionScript 3.0 book. i just work it out in flash. But it shown error 5000: The class 'priyan' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.

How do I manage that, while the movie starts, some parts of the Display List are "hold in the backhand" and get loaded when I decide that they should.Can I only do that via external SWF-Files? Further question: Is it possible to stream the files, by calculating the download speed and starting the movie when I want it to do, or is Flash doing that automatically
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to create a replicating a display object on runtime, so it imitates all the actions done on the original, or do I have to perform every action I'm doing on the original, on the replica as well? I thought maybe there's a way by making a Bitmap object out of the original and updating it each time, but I don't have lots of experience using these kinds of methods.

View 29 RepliesI have a MovieClip with multiple child MovieClips. I would like to add a class to each child MovieClip. Unfortunately, I can't just create the class and mc.addChild(class) because classes aren't display objects.
View 3 RepliesI have a class which takes in another class as one of its parameters, and creates instances of it according to certain rules.In the past, I've had no problem with passing classes from the library to that class, which obligingly does its magic.In this case, however, I'm dynamically loading an image at runtime. I'm trying to wrap that image in a MovieClip, and somehow pass that clip *as a class*, to the one that creates multiple instances.Is this possible? I thought I'd cracked it with something like:
Code:
theMovieClip.addChild(thePicture);
var apples:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName(getQualifiedClassName(theMovieClip)))

I'm working on a pause function for my game. Instead of manually writing code to pause all possible animations that a movieclip has, I wrote a function that runs through its children recursively until it reaches the end. For each child it checks to see if it's a movieclip, if so it will run a stop() on it. This works fine, except that I noticed it wasn't pausing my walk cycle.
Upon some investigation I found that while I created the walk cycle as a movieclip, it is recognized by flash as a sprite when the game is actually loaded. This does not make sense because the walk cycle clearly has more than one frame. Adding any kind of code to the MovieClip will stop flash from seeing it as a sprite, so to fix this I can just go into the animation and add '//' to any of the frames.
Code:
public static function togglePauseChildren(curObject:*):void {
if(getQualifiedSuperclassName(curObject)=="flash.display::MovieClip") {
if(curObject.numChildren>0) {
for(var i:uint=0; i<curObject.numChildren; i++) {
var curChild:* = curObject.getChildAt(i);

I'm trying to place an instance of a movieclip (instance name: tehMovieClip) from the library within another movieclip (instance name: parentMovieClip) on the stage. tehMovieClip, the movieclip going inside another movieclip, belongs to a class called CollisonDetection (linkage properties, class:CollisonDetection, Base Class: flash.display.MovieClip). When I put tehMovieClip inside parentMovieClip, I get this runtime error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
If I just place tehMovieClip on the stage by itself, it works fine but I need it to be inside parentMovieClip.

For my project I need to copy the graphics of a Movieclip with all of its children without copying anything else into a second Movieclip.

View 13 RepliesIn my file I have used greensock transform manager class. At he same time I have used a code to generate text field at runtime which can be moved and deleted. Now the problem is that If I select the text box and then select the black box, the text box will lose its selection.Now if I delete the black box the text box will also be deleted . I don't know why it happens every time. But if i select and delete the text box , then only the text box will be deleted, which is quite natural.
