IDE :: Adding Dynamic MovieClips (Products) To Stage
Nov 16, 2009
I have connected to a web service built in java and would now like to add the products to a stage. I want to show 5 products and if a user clicks <- the previous 5 and -> next 5.
Code:
import mx.data.components.WebServiceConnector
// Add preloader here
var wsConn:WebServiceConnector = new WebServiceConnector();
wsConn.addEventListener("result", res);
[Code] .....
In the res function I would like to add my movieclips but I don't know how to move on.
I'm currently reading the book Learning Actionscript 3.0 and I cannot figure how this was done. In chapter 6, there is an example of Ingeritace, Encapsulation etc. where there is a class called Vehicle and from that class a few more classes were created Car, Truck etc. and everything make sense but there is something I don't know understand, there are two MovieClips that are added to the stage at run time and I can't figure out how those clips were added to the stage, I tried doing my own version and I tried exporting these MovieClips checking the Export for actionscript option under propeties but it doesn't work.
I am reading in collection objects from an XML file. Each collection has an img field that stores a URL to the collection image. So I am trying to load the images of each collection, storing each image in a MovieClip, and add these MovieClips to the stage. However, my problem is that after adding a MovieClip (with the collection image) to the stage, when a new MovieClip is created in my 'for each' loop it overrites the previous MovieClip. So the images I am adding to the stage are being replaced by the following collection's image on each loop iteration. What can I do to avoid this?
I am trying to write some code for someone show wants to be able to control their timeline animation by using the slider component. Everything was going fine until I tried to add the Play and Pause buttons to the stage. I instantiated both movieclips and added "stage.addChild(<mcName>);" but neither clip showsup when I test the movie. I tried removing "stage." but that didn't help either.
I tried to find a solution to my problem online, and while I haven't figured it out yet, it seems that these movieclips might need to be part of a function. This could be totally incorrect, but it's the best guess I have right now.
My AS code is below. (I couldn't get the .FLA file to zip small enough, but if anyone wants it, I'll find a way.) See comment "// PLAY/PAUSE CODE" for Play/Pause buttons.
ok. so here's the thing..i have a class from where i created an array with the time, name, and position of each movieclip data.. and wanted it to go through each one and execute at a certain time.. So i tried something like this:
[Code]...
the first part works well.. but its when i try and add it to the stage that i get confused.. i tried something but i think its wrong.. can anyone help me? Basicly i want flash to get the array.. use index 1 for the name.. index 2 for the x position and index 3 for the y position.. but all this name referencing in as3 really confuses me.

I've been building a web based order form and my client want the ability to add items (as many as you want) and for them to be totalled up. I've used Kirupas Scrollpane with Dynamic Mc's tutorial to add my products, but I can't seem to add them up! Each product adds up it's subtotal in the dynamically attached Mc and outputs the variable 'subtotal' In my root I have this function to call the subtotals, but I can't seem to get it to add up each of them to output a total...

Here is my code...
var collXML:XML = IXml(assets.collections).xml; var collNodes:XMLList = collXML.children(); for each (var collInfo:XML in collNodes) {
I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
I'm working on a piece for work. I need to figure out how to add unique dynamic text fields to duplicated movieclips. Unique as in unique instance names and variable names. I have a movieclip on the stage that contains a dynamic text field.
the text field will house text that is being pulled from an xml file.What I need is to have the dynamic text field in all the duplicated movieclips have a unique instance name and variable name.I assume that a nested for loop would be required, but I'm not sure as I am not the greatest actionscripter. Here's what I have so far:
what I'm trying to do is attach instances of a movieclip on stage, one by one, so they form a shape similar to one of examples below...(each dot would be a movieclip)I know I should do it using loops and probably sin/cos math methods, but am not sure where to even star
I am loading products from XML in Roll Over ,A movie clip appears I m trying to display Description , Price & Link in a MovieClip when I move to that movieClip , as it moves away from image(on which roll-over was trigrred ) my description movieClip gone
I am with big problem, example I am making a "item product", that he goes to show image, the description of the product and the price of the product, the image, the description and the price, I am catching these data of my HTML.[code]As I would make thus, in my HTML I have that to put 4 images, 4 description and 4 prices it to works normal, without giving error, but if I to place 2 images, 2 description and 2 prices it show 2 products, but it still goes until the end of timeline showing nothing.how I would make if I placed only 3 or 2 products, it I would only twirl these 3 with Loop, if I placed 1 product only show 1 time without loop, it he would be without Loop and thus for ahead?
I have a client that wants a list a products to scroll across the top of the screen on his website.I am sure there is a way to do that in Flash but the extent of my experience is fade-out slideshows.Can anyone direct me to a great tutorial for scrolling text.
Right now, I've got a switch statement which is being used to create objects based on a string. There are three types of objects which extend an abstract generic object. I should really be using a factory pattern, which I'm figuring out right now. My issue is thus: flexibility of the factory pattern, but right now I'm storing the would-be products in special dictionaries dedicated to their type.
I am glad for my first participation in this forum. Currently, I am working on Flash8, were doing a banner animation. It has buttons created by XML binding. When you click the buttons, appropriate product picture appears and when you click on the picture page is redirected to that products page. I want that animation to be automatically browsing products. And when you click some button browsing would stop, picture would appear, if no action wait for a while and continue browsing(first picture, second picture, ...) automatically.
so I have created 2 sections and turned them into movieClips. On the first bubbleZone movieClip I want to add multiple "bubble" movieClips which will only appear in the bubbleZone movieClip. See code below. However, the bubbles seem to be appearing all over the stage and are hidden by the bubbleZone movieClip. Is there anyway to make the bubbleZone movieclip pretty much just a background for catching events and then tying the individual bubbles to just the bubbleZone so they don't appear anywhere else on the stage?
var bubbleZone:BubbleZone = new BubbleZone(); bubbleZone.vx = 1; bubbleZone.height = 600; bubbleZone.width = 820.8;
I'm getting crazy with this error and found no solution until now. Well, the issue consist in create dynamic movieclips and external jpgs into a for loop through xml nodes and add the respective image into that movieclip.
I was wondering if anyone has attempted in profiting off of using Flash to make useful applications? I started the website [URL] which the products are both made in flash (one of the members here coded it for me). I am just interested in seeing if anyone else has tried selling flash as software? If your wondering I have sold about $450 worth of the basketball/football one and just started the first aid one
Is there a way to use an existing path drawn on the scene, as the basis for path made up by many movieclips that also follow the original curves "curveture"?I kind of want to make a "road" consisting of "yellow stickit notes" overlapping each other.I want to do this without manually having to draw each stick-it note, so I can easily change the curve without having to redraw the whole thing.
