working on a Flash Game for my final project but only ever used Flash before for animations not games! I got a Flash Games book but I'm stuck on one of the exercises
I created a new slideshow in flash CS3 - AS3 but my code that I had for xml caching is barking at me and I am not sure what to do. The output window shows access to undefined property root.
I have a button on the main timeline that works fine, part of the code in the button: for (b=1; b< dpth; b++) { var lineMovedx = _root["Line"+b]._x; _root["Line"+b]._x = lineMovedx-9000 trace(_root["Line"+b]);
It basically moves stuff a person draws off the screen when the button is pushed, there is another button that brings it back. But when I put that same button in a movieclip on the main timeline and change the code to this: for (b=1; b< dpth; b++) { var lineMovedx = _root._root["Line"+b]._x; _root._root["Line"+b]._x = lineMovedx-9000 trace(_root._root["Line"+b]);
It no longer works and the trace shows no output, it basically loses it completely, I can't figure out why it does not work, it seems so simple.
I'm running FMS 4 Dev on my win XP SP3 machine, also running flash cs5 professional on same machine. I get the server admin screen to come up and it says it's running. I'm using a tut book on FMS and trying to run the first script in the book. It's long but I'll add the script at the bottom so you can see what i'm doing. In the server app folder I placed another folder called vid2 with nothing in it just like the book told me to do. I wrote the script line for line out of the book. When I test my movie it lays out my video window and buttons. It diplays my ugly mug on the screen. when I press the record button it does nothing. when i press the stop button the output window shows me an error of "#1009 can't access properties or methods of a null object". I assume that this is telling me I do not have a net connection.
when I types in the example it had an IP address in the code.How do I know the correct IP addy to my dev server? If I'm doing development and testing on the same machine do I even need to know this? 2) How will what I'm doing now differ from leasing space from an FMS provider?
i want to add two numbers, which has entered in two input text fields.[code]here if i entered 3 in one text field and 2 in another text field. the result is comming like 32. It should be "5".
I am trying to figure out a way to add 2 colors (hex values) to generate a new color.I am not sure as to how this can be computed. Is the new color an average of the hex values of the 2 colors?
So I've defined my variable:_global.current = 1;And below i am accessing an MC called 'carousel_holder', which has an MC named 'bar' and inside this MC is a final MC named 'bar1'.So ive tested my path and can hard code it fine, so its not a paths issue but i think my syntax is incorrect:_root.carousel_holder+".bar"+current.gotoAndPlay(" start");
if container like VBox have autoScrollPolicy for both scrolls. if VerticalScrollBar is added, why the horizontalScrollBar automatically added.. is there any option to avoid the horizontalScrollBar addition to container.. without using horizontalScrollPolicy="off"
I have created an item renderer spark list in flex , but i want to call a function on addition of new row in list and not afterwards. I am getting a data object in rendered list in it i am getting the type of data to be displayed in list ie. either text or image. So on addition of new data in list i want a function to be called up in rendered list that checks the type of data received and then it will either create and add an image element or a text element. So the main problem is how i get a function called on addition of data. I have tried events like datachange and added but they keep on calling the function over and over again when we scroll the list but i want the function to be called once only on addition of data and not after wards. Below is the renderer list code , maybe you will get a better idea of what i am trying to do:
how can I add number to a current variable in actionscript. My variable has data coming though php(numeric data) so I want to create an if statement to say this:
If the data number(let's use 5) is equal to 5+any number then do something.
Should be pretty simple but I can't seem to figure it out right now, how can I say "any number" with code?
There is more to this script, but I cut it down to this in order to focus on the error, which results in a joining aa and aaa. i.e. aa=36 aaa=4 results in a=364, where what I want would be a=40
has anyone had any problems with addition? I'm trying to get two numbers to add and instead it is concatenating them together as a string, however when I multiply, divide, or even subtract them it works fine.
I have a divided box that has 3 panels in it... when a certain tab in tab navigator is clicked, then the sidebar with the three panels changed. One tab might show one Panel, another tab might show two of the panels and so on.
I can turn panels invisible and hide the dividers and ever almost positions the panels right, but the dividers still exists so it's not as dynamic as I would like.
Is their an easier way to add and remove panels from the Divided box that won't take as much manual configuration and hacking to make look right?
The problem is once I hide a panel the divider still exists.
I've created a MXML Component that consists of two TextInput boxes (user can input a "name" and "description"). I'm attempting to add and remove this component dynamically to a VBox in an MXML application. I've achieved addition thusly:
[Code]....
However, I cannot seem to get the remove() going after trying various ways with box.removeElement().
Why not have the Adobe Flash CS5 product directly generate mp4 and other formats in addition to SWF?From my chair (as an Adobe Flash CS5 user) it
-Going about using other additional software has direct effect on a software budget. -Costs extra manhours to gather information of how it is done. -Costs extra manhours/user time to process. -Perhaps even increases the likelihood for errors and noise in re-processing already processed files (SWF->{F4V,MOV,MP4}) (F4V->{MP4,MOV},)relative to the original source FLA file?
i have two tree one tree lets say TreeDrag is drag enabled and other is drop enabled lets say TreeDrop.. when i drag item from TreeDrag to TreeDrop,, i want to show feedback and everything else normal except the addition of dragged item in TreeDrop..
I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?
is there a way to make it so when you are done putting something into an input field it will automaticly add/subtract from a dynamic field.Dynamic1 + Input = Dynamic2where each time you change the input text it will readd dynamic1 and input show it on dynamic2
I loaded a page on the server and is not showing up the flash object. You can hover the screen and you know the object is there but is showing a white box. Locally in my computer I can see it. The test page is [URL]
I have mashed a setting somewhere that put the stage in wireframe preview mode and I can't seem to find where the setting is to change it back. I THINK I have checked every setting.
how to change this back? It's a little difficult to work with images when all you see is an outline of the image's dimensions.
