ActionScript :: Toggling Boolean - Always Tracing True For Mouse Click

Sep 11, 2010

This code is written in simple ActionScript, but I'm assuming this problem of mine would occur in all languages that have boolean datatypes. I'm simply clicking the stage so that my boolean variable reverses its value and than traces/prints/logs it's new value. However, it's always tracing true instead of switching between true and false for each mouse click.

var myBool:Boolean;
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouseClickHandler);
function mouseClickHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
changeBoolean(myBool);
} function changeBoolean(boolean:Boolean):void {
boolean = !boolean;
trace(boolean);
}

ActionScript :: Xml - Setting Object Properties From Other Object Properties?

Jun 25, 2010

i'm attempting to cast an object's property as an actual property of another object. here's my object variable: var propObj:Object = {prop:"width", width:50}; now i want to assign the property of a sprite using that object's properties. var sp:Sprite = new Sprite(); sp.(propObj.prop as Sprite.property) = propObj.width; now, i'm not even going to try that because i know the compiler will explode all up in my face. but you should be able to see what i'm trying to do. why i'm trying to do it is because i'm reading in an XML file with an undetermined list of usable properties for specific objects. so instead of writing something like a huge switch statement to evaluate whether the XML file has a value for that specific property, i'm trying to assign properties dynamically based on what's available in the XML file. if what i'm trying to do is possible, what's the best way to do it?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Tracing An Object In An Array?

Aug 19, 2010

I have some simple Sprites that I'm putting into an array. However, when I click on them I want to trace what their position is in the array. How do I go about doing that?

ActionScript Code:
var myArray:Array = new Array();
var mySpriteOne:sprite = new Sprite();
mySpriteOne.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);

[Code]....

I want to add some mouse click listeners and then I want to trace the currentTarget's position in the array. I just have no idea what parameters to give the trace().

ActionScript 2.0 :: Tracing The Rotation Of An Object

Mar 14, 2006

check out the attached file. Don't ask me why, but I need that yellow rectangle to follow that grey dot, which rotates around randomly... but see, if you place the dot to the center left of the grey rectangle, you see that the yellow rectangle screws up. I've deducted that this happens for this reason: to the left of the grey rectangle, the rotation value is 178... 179... 180... then it jumps to -180... -179... -178... (you can try this out using an onEnterFrame function and tracing the rotation of an object that follows the mouse).

Since the yellow rectangle follows the grey dot with an ease, it doesn't just do: rectangle._rotation = dot._rotation But instead: rectangle._rotation += Math.round((dot._rotation-this._rotation)/rotatespeed) Some of you guys should already be familiar with this kind of movement, but it's usually used to move objects smoothly. The bug here is that whenever that dot randomly jumps up into -180 from it's original position at below 180, it screws up the yellow rectangle.

Arrays :: Tracing Object Whose Property Equals To Certain Value

Mar 29, 2011

I have an array of objects. What I would like to do is get the last index of an object whose property equals a certain value.
Ex:
// this occurs on a mouse click
var stockObj:Object = new Object();
stockObj.ID = "an_id";
stockObj.category = "a_category";
array.push(stockObj);
//psuedo
trace(array.lastIndexOf(stockObj.category=="a_category"));
I would like this to trace the index of the object whose category property equals "a_category"

ActionScript 3.0 :: Tracing Contents Of Display Object?

Sep 19, 2008

The author shows a function that is supposed to trace the contents of any display object. In his example file he has several nested movie clips on the stage and everything works just as it should, this is the code.

ActionScript Code:
function showChildren(dispObj:DisplayObject):void {
for (var i:uint = 0; i < dispObj.numChildren; i++) {
var obj:DisplayObject = dispObj.getChildAt(i)

[code]....

The problem I am having is that when I open a new actionScript 3 .fla and try to recreate the nested movie clips and use the same code I get these errors:

ActionScript Code:
line 3  1061: Call to a possibly undefined method getChildAt through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.
var obj:DisplayObject = dispObj.getChildAt(i)
line 2 1119: Access of possibly undefined property numChildren through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject. 
for(var i:uint = 0; i < dispObj.numChildren; i++){

ActionScript 2.0 :: Trace The Properties Of An Object's Properties?

Jan 30, 2008

I forgot to put it in the title so I'll just place it here; I am using AS 2.0. I know that there are other ways to accomplish the goal that am after, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to access the properties of an object's properties?

Here is the code that I thought of, even though it doesn't work

var a:Object = new Object();
a.bproperty = 0; //lowerlevel properties
a.cproperty = 1; // lowerlevel properties

[Code].....

This really just boils down to how I am organizing the code(I have ideas on what do next, and i am 99% sure that I can get them to work), and if there is a way to dynamically access the properties of the objects properties, It will save me from creating yet another large block of code for my project.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Retrieving Object Properties From Object Array?

Nov 11, 2007

I'm basically loading an XML file to assign instances of a movie clip a distinct value, which it uses to modify its height. So, I'm looping through the xml and instantiating my class Object each time (Rect) and then placing that Object into an array:

Code:
function loadXML(loaded){
if(loaded){
var boxArray:Array;
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

[code]....

the trace here always comes up undefined. "listPosition" in this bit is an Rect parameter, defined in the previous bit of code as "i", so I can keep track of the order of the stack.I've found one or two examples of putting objects into an array and getting them back out, but it doesn't seem to work with this, maybe because I'm using a class. I don't know.Could this be an area where I need to use the array access brackets, like around the movie clip the object is loaded into. I've tried everything I can think of -- referencing back to the movieclip, adding extra objectRef type parameters... nothing has worked yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Your Own Properties For An Object?

Sep 11, 2008

Back in the day (AS2), I used to create what I called an"ivar" property that collected the index of a series of buttonsthat were clickable (see attached code). Imagine 10 buttons on thestage with names (selectButton0, selectButton1, ...selectButton9).The code under the //----------BUTTONS header would make a propertyof the button that was clicked, call it "ivar" and then send it upto a function that would use it as an index to then load theappropriate content with MovieClipLoader (remember that Class?).I have tried something similar in AS3 without any luck sincethe whole button thing is now steered by events. Does anybody knowan elegant solution that would achieve a similar result. That is,click a button called "selectButton0" and have returned the zero asan index variable that could be used further?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get A List Of All The Properties Of The Object?

Dec 12, 2002

I am having a hard time understanding for...in loops. I have seen David use it in his signature, and I understand what the loops is doing, but only from the context of the rest of the signature. If somebody could explain how the for..in loop works, I'd be greatful. Here's what I know:

PHP Code:

for (proprtyThing in objectThing) {
trace (proprtyThing);


My understanding of this loop tells me that if I run it, I'll get a list of all the properties of the object named objectThing....but this makes no sense to me!!
