Flash :: Declare Library Items As Either MovieClip
Nov 15, 2011Why does Flash still offer to declare library items as either MovieClip, Graphic or Button? Is this just for backwards compatibility or is there any reason not to use MovieClip for everything? (Well, Button does have some additional functionality, but what about Graphic? does a Graphic have any advantage over a MovieClip?)
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Loop Through Library Items?
May 21, 2010I was wondering if you could loop through your library or a specific folder in your library and get alle linkage names of items that have 'Export for Actionscript' checked. I have an amount of items in my library of which I want to random pick one. Of course I could just use an array of linkage names that correspond to my library items, but I was wondering if there is a more efficient way.
View 2 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Add Loop Items To Array
Jun 5, 2005What I've got is a menu that loads images as buttons. It will only display menu items that are within a certain group (i.e. if themenuitem.node Value == groupid[q] then it will display that menu item. Each of the menu items has a unique number (Itemnumber[n]). I have a loop that goes through and displays the menu items that are within a certain group. I am currently able to also find out the unique number of each of the menu items where themenuitem.nodeValue == groupid[q], but what I want to do with these numbers, is place them all into an array as it loops through.So, say for example, it finds an item in the loop. It tells me this item is number 4 (if I tell it to trace(Itemnumber[n]) within the loop). Then, it finds another item in the loop, and it tells me this item number is 6. I want to be able to add items to an array as it loops through, so I'll have an array at the end like this: (4, 6).Currently my ActionScript looks like the following. Never mind if there are variables that are not defined in there -- they have been defined in other parts of my movie.[code]As you can see, I've made an attept at achieving this by trying numarray[numarraylength] = n; -- but all this does is send me an array, then overwrite it next time it loops (so I get an array like (4, 4), then one like (6, 6). I've added comments in the code to further explain what I'm trying to do.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Items Created In Loop?
Mar 14, 2012If you have a series of sprites created in a loop:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
}
Which you added event listeners to, in the same loop:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.addEventListener(....
}
How can you remove those listeners, then add them again? I need to kill and re-enable the listeners of many sprites which were created that way.

It would be significantly more work to design the looping animations in actionscript than through using the IDE, so I would prefer not to have to dynamically create these loops.

Sep 12, 2011I am trying to coding a part of a program which is creating different listener for the same object by using a for, but the problem is that the result for all of them is the same, In the following you can find my code:
for( var i:int=0;i<10;i++){
var obj = new MyClass();
obj.y = i*30;

My goal of writing the code above is, by clicking on the first obj, the program writes 0 in output, by clicking on second one, writes 1 and so on, but this code give me 10 for all the objects.I should add that no matter there is an obj or not in myOtherMovieClip area, by clicking in that area, I got the same value.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Creating MovieClip Instances In Loop
May 28, 2010So I know that if I want to create an instance of a movie clip called part01Roads from the library I do this:

addChild(part01Roads_mc);
part01Roads_mc.x = -22379;
part01Roads_mc.y = 317;
Well I want to take this one step further if it is at all possible. Lets say I have 100 different movie clips labeled in a sequence: part01Roads, part02Roads, part03Roads ..... part100Roads. Instead of rewriting the above code 100 times, can I make a loop to do this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Referencing Of Items Within MovieClip?
Feb 19, 2010I am building a drag and drop application. I have a few items within a movie clip that are movie clips. They each have their own instance name.
I am trying to access them from the document class using 'event.target.name'.
That works and I can pick up the name of the movieclip.
I put it in a string var called tName.
Then I try to modify a property of the selected movieclip:
itemList.items.tName.x+=23;
thats when i get, 'A term is undefined and has no properties' error.
I know itemList.items.tName is the correct navigation to the clip, because if i replace the var and hard code the correct name, it works.
whats funny is my tName var is tracing out the correct name of the movieclip.
Or a better way to dynamically access mc's within mc's.

ActionScript 2.0 :: OnRelease Move MovieClip - Navigation Items
Feb 14, 2008I am making a navigation for a site, and the client wants a box behind a menu item to show that it is the active option. He wants that box to move to behind the new option when selected. So my navigation goes along the x axis; home contact about etc. Initially the box, which I have given the instance name 'tab' is behind 'home' as its the homepage.
So by clicking on say, the third option, the box will move from home to the third option, and say the user then clicks the second option, the box is to move to behind that. I got 4 navigation items, all are buttons, all on their own layer with the box being on its own layer too (obviously below the layers for the buttons so it appears behing the menu item).
I thought it would be quite simple, have some code which effectively says:
buttom1.on(release) {
tab.moveto(x value, 40);
}

Aug 15, 2010I'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.
I created the component using a s:List element.
In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.
Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.
is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?
