I made a panel movie with required designs which can be used as several pages in flash document. This is the basic design for all pages. Now, I would like to make changes in pages according to their subject. But when I make any change in one page the other pages are automatically changed.
View 1 RepliesI can't seem to get my head round why when I set the colortransform object for one clip in my movie, it seems to affect the entire movie - textboxes and everything..I thought that a colorTransform it only affected the specified and child clips in the movie.Example - I have a lot of things attached to _root.I have a particular clip which is on its own and is attached to the _root - this is my code...Code:clip.transform.colorTransform = new flash.geom.ColorTransform(0.05, 0.05, 0.05, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0);That seems to set the clip nice and dark as I want it to - but it also sets all other clips and all clips dynamically added afterwards to have the same colortransform settings... am I missing something from the CT object?

View 2 RepliesI'm writing the application for iOS in Flex (sdk 4.5). Is it possible to play movie in such built application?
I was trying to use Video component - which works well on my desktop, but it doesn't work on my iPod. Of course my application is running, but the video isn't playing.
I made an image of an arrow and it is set as a button, not a movie clip.
I have made it so one of my scene loops, frames 65 to 85 and added a button to go to the next scene which is at frame 86.
The code I used is
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(86) ;
}
But when ever I test the scene I get an error saying "Mouse events are permitted only for button instances".

I need to add 5 cubes made from container movie clips to the stage. So far I have added the container movie clips to the stage, given them instance names and then referenced them in code from there. e.g.
ActionScript Code:
cubes.cubef(cube0);
cubes.cubef(cube1);
[code]....
(cubes.cubef is the function for creating the cube from the container movie clip)So I was wandering if I could dynamically and add the clips to the stage from the library by just using code. I have tried this so far:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i<5; i++) {
var cub:MovieClip = new cube_mc;
[code]....
From that code, I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at cubes$/traverseParents()
at cubes$/cubef()
at rota_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
EDIT: I have solved this. I used an array for storing the instances then refer to it.
ActionScript Code:
var cubeArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:int = 0; i<5; i++) {

View 1 RepliesI'm new to AS3 and I'm currently trying to code a project that allows the user to dissect an image made of movie clips:

rightnip_mc.y+=100;[code].....
I have literally duplicated this bit of code for the sixty movieclips that comprise this image. This would be fine, but I need another image (again, comprised of about sixty movieclips) to appear, and have the same functionality as the first, once the pieces of the first image have left the stage.I have been reading articles about classes, creating classes; my teacher gave me vague advice about creating a number that increments as the images fall and then creating a conditional statement that would display the new image once the pieces of the first have reached a particular Y location. But at this point I'm on the verge of tears and can't seem to make it work.
I went to the following site, [URK] and I i noticed that the movie took up the whole page but resized if you made the window the smaller.

View 1 RepliesNow then, I am working on a game and I've come across a problem that I simply cannot figure out. I have a symbol with the instance name of "textbox" (genius, no?) and I have a button with no instance name. Now, within the "textbox" symbol, I have two frames; one of which is named "descentlava". When the aforementioned button is clicked, I need the "textbox" symbol to gotoAndStop on the "descentlava" frame. My feeble mind managed to whip up the following code for the button:
on (release) {
_root["textbox"].gotoAndStop("descentlava");
}
Unfortunately, this does not work and frankly, I'm losing my mind trying to figure this out all on my own. Anyone feel like they could offer some assistance?PS: Not sure if this changes anything, but I feel I should mention that the button and the "textbox" symbol are both within ANOTHER symbol with no instance name. Perhaps this is whats causing the problem, but taking everything out onto the stage is a big no-no. It must be contained within the symbol.
So I created a flash banner and I want the whole banner to be clickable I made an invisble button on the timeline into a movie clip and insdie the movieclip in the actions layer my code is thi:
mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);function mouseUpHandler(evt:MouseEvent){navigateToURL(new URLRequest(root.clickTAG),"_blank");}<mybutton>.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, handleMouse);[code]...........
ok, i made a form and i want to count how many characters you can type so i got this far...
[AS]
mlength = message.length;
charsleft = 466-mlength+" characters left";
[/AS]
that works except when i made the movie 2 frames and looped it back the form wont work

I have a combobox (ddList) populated through xml and I can get a movieClip to change its alpha when an associated item in the combobox is clicked. What I'd like to do is return that original movieClip back to its original state when another item is clicked from the combobox. Thus having this second movieClip change in alpha.[code]
View 3 RepliesI habitually create my websites with a stage size of 950 x 580. They tend to appear slightly small in any browser which is ok because they can all normally be "zoomed-in" on using the browser zoom functions.
I have just created a site which loads several external .swf's into a main movie clip and the browser zoom works fine UNTIL I incorporate a further .swf which was created from a PDF file (using swfTools - pdf2swf).
This seems to disable the normal browser zoom with the effect that everything is just moved up and left a little rather than remaining centred and enlarging.

View 1 RepliesI have created a .swf with flash cs4 actionscript 3. I placed it into an indesign page (cs4) and then exported to make a pdf. The movie played correctly before being placed and made into pdf. I have a stop in the first frame of the movie. So when you open the movie there is a black screen (first two frames only) with two buttons, a start and a stop. click the start the movie plays. when made into pdf and opened the movie plays automaticly no black screen and the buttons do not work.

I need to display antialiased systemfonts (because the swf filesize must be small, therefore i can't embedd fonts). So I wrote this script in order to manually antialias the text
Code:
public function renderTextField():BitmapData{
var w:int = this["mainTextField"].textWidth+10;
[code]......
ActionScript Code:
import fl.controls.ColorPicker;
import fl.events.ColorPickerEvent;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
[code]....
I was going to use this code and modify it to work with the previous code.
ActionScript Code:
var OBJECTcolorInfo:ColorTransform = OBJECT.transform.colorTransform;
cpOBJECT.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE, colorChange);
[code]....
A quick note, the OBJECT is there to show it's supposed to refer back to the "["bg"+String(i)]" bit is. I just don't know how to tell the code to look for it.My main goal is to have an object, for instance a rectangle, be draggable (and placeable). You would then set a series of color pickers to said rectangle, changing areas of it's colors once you double click it.However, the rectangle must move as a whole and not have to have each individual color part be repositioned along with it.
