I have a bunch of text fields that display numbers such as 2745345.What i want is a neat bit of code that quickly and simply converts this to 2,745,345.This makes the numbers more easy to read and interpret.

View 0 RepliesI'm showing the users score in a textbox. But if the number exceeds 1000 it should show 1.000 example: 10000000 => 10,000,000 I've been searching a lot on Google, but I just can't make it work. Can anyone help me with this? I've started something out with this code:

Also, if I had the correct function, how would I made it split too if the number was 10.000, 100.000, etc..
I have a counting movie which displays numbers from 1 to 1000 (action scripts) in a dynamic text box. First 1 and then 2 and so on. It works very well. I convert this movie to a movie clip and drag this new movie clip to the main stage on frame 1, but anything happens now.
View 14 RepliesI can't seem to find anything that would let me to easily show a Number in a label, textinput, etc. with comma separation.
like in a label, show number 123456.78 as 123,456.78
[Bindable]
private var num:Number = 123456.78;
<mx:Label text={num} />
Obviously I could just create a function, but is there a more simple way?
I've a regex that matches comma separated numbers with an optional two digit decimal part in a given multiline text.
/(?<=s|^)d{1,3}(,d{3})*(.d{2})?(?=s|$)/m
It matches strings like 1, 12, 12.34, 12,345.67 etc successfully. How can I modify it to match a number with only the decimal part like .23?
EDIT: Just to clarify - I would like to modify the regex so that it matches 12, 12.34 and .34
And I am looking for 'stand alone' valid numbers. i.e., number-strings whose boundaries are either white space or start/end of line/string.
I'm using Flex3 building my AS3 projects for some 3D effects. I am going to create 1000 polygons(or rectangles) on the scene, without texture mapping. It seems the native 3D api of AS3 needs quite a lot memory:
[Code]....
here i created 1000 sp on the scene, the runtime memory cost seems to be more than 60MB. if increase to 2000, memory goes to 120MB. It seems the FVM's native 3D api generates a bitmap texture for each sprite, it's pretty memory costing. The alternative way may be is to draw the projected vertices of the sprites frame by frame by using local3DToGlobal and drawTriangles() to render the scene, but that could be slower. So is there any way to render many instances using the native 3D feature with costing much memory?

View 9 RepliesI am working on a maths game which involves generating some large numbers in AS3. When I pass these numbers into a textbox they appear as e.g. 300000, I would like them to appear as 300,000.Is it possible to format a text box to do this?

What I need to do is assign 5 separate dynamic text fields to 5 seperate buttons and at the same time to those same five buttons i would like to add 5 images that i would be able to change merely by swapping out the images in the file theyre in on the server.I would also like to get a nice transition between the images...ALSO i want to dynamically load the images for the buttons that will be used for switching from picture to picture(which im thinking i will be able to do after i know the how to do point the aforementioned things.)
Through tutorials I've found around the net I've been able to get most of the parts together... but i get lost because what they show you for AS2 they don't for AS3 and vice versa, at least that ive seen.so... I guess my question is... would i need to set up 5 seperate dynamic text fields on the stage and then set each one of them to one of the corresponding button. If so what AS code would i need to use to do so. And if not what would i need to do?
The other part of the question would be I know about the UILoader... would i be able to use it as my buttons and images, if so would i need 5 seperate ui loaders for both the Thumbnail buttons and the images or is there a way that would be better to do it? and once i do that would i do the transitions using frames and tweens like with AS2?
If I create a new flash AS3 file and create two blank keyframes in my actions layer I can add actions to each keyframe separately no problem. I can then easily switch between the actions frames from the menu bar on the left of the actions input panel. However if I try and do this on any of my projects i've been working on for a while when I create a new blank keyframe in the actions layer and try to add actions to it, I get sent straight back to my first actions keyframe and not a nice blank page. Can I even apply seperate actions to seperate keyframes?
View 6 RepliesThis is NOT the same as my last thread as i am after three and NOT ONE as last time. In the attached movie there are three seperate movies loading into three seperate tweens. Please note that i am happy with this movie as it is, and do not want to change anything about it except for the script itself. It refurs to three seperate clips "b.a","d.c" and "f.e". What i want is for the script to incorperate all three clips under one name of "mc" And instead of have three seperate widths, "width 1","width2" and "width3" i want the script to also incorperate all three widths and heights into just one name of "width" and one name of "height".
View 9 RepliesReal simple question;How would I code in AS2 to add commas to a value in myText.text which recieves input from xml?Say if the value is 1000000, I want it to say 1.000.000.

is it possible to make a comma (,) to equal (.) in as3?
example:
now i write
2.31 + 4 = 6.31
so it's possible to write
2,31 + 4 = 6,31
I'm using an input field in which users can do a certain calculation. Everything works fine. But what I want is that when users type a comma (f.e.: 1,2) the comma will automatically be converted into a dot.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently working on a JibJab style project where a third party agency have done an animation. Now we have tracked the head motions in AE CS4 and done an export to Flash using XFL, and the motion does not work.
Before this we have done several tests to see if this method would work, so we know it actually does work, but the tests where only a couple of 100 frames long, now the project is over 1500 frames.
The final animation is 60 sec, 25f/s, and after importing the motion into FLASH using XFL nothing happens. The motion is there if we look in the motion editor, the image is there, but nothing happens when i scrub back and forth. This all worked like a charm with the test projects. AND if i try and rightclick the picture or motion editor FLASH freezes, so i know something is REALLY wrong here.
After four hours of bug hunting i have isolated the problem to the number of frames you try to import into FLASH. If the end sequence is more than 1000 frames (exactly!) a extra keyframe is added on the first frame in the motion editor, so there is TWO keyframes on the first frame, where there should only be possible to have one. This happens only if the sequence is more then 1000 frames. If i take the same sequence and export if from AE so its less then 1000 frames everything is fine.
I have attached a screenshot of the extra keyframe that apears in the motion editor. It's allso noteworthy that this extra keyframe can't be changed or adjusted as it does not actualy "excist".
I would like to have this bug confirmed by someone and if someone has a solution? Right now im looking at cutting up the export into "999 frames" sections and then patch it together again in Flash.
I'm a newbie to Actionscript and read many OReily books on AS3 and have a pretty decent understanding of it. But when it comes to typing out code i struggle. So as a solution to connecting all my neurons together to set up some mad typing skills I want to type out pages and pages of code. I was wondering if you guys knew of any "gigantic" super classes i could type out for practice?

I have a movieclip, mcMenu, on the timeline which contains a dynamic textbox, txtMenu. I'm using this code:
[Code]....
When I trace the array, it appears correctly in the output window. In the textbox, there is a comma at the start of every line except line1. The dynamic textbox is set to Multiline no wrap, although I find that results are the same with Multiline. If I remove from the lines of text, it is wrapped in the textbox. I've tried removing the with the following code but it still wraps: mcMenu.txtMenu.text = mcMenu.txtMenu.text+newline+arrMenu[i]; I don't really know if the comma indicates a blank line but there are no commas in the text at all.
In my movie i have a shopping cart which adds up a total of all items. When the total reaches more the 1000.00 i need to add in a comma separator as in 1,000.00 if i do this manually flash no longer see's the variable as a number, how do i get around this one?

View 3 RepliesHere is my problem. I have a file set to 1000 pixels in height and length. My image covers that size. I am trying to create a series of panels that are lined up next to each other and than motion tween it so it looks like the background is moving. I am creating each panel by copying and pasting it and placing them next to each other so it forms a single large line. However, the screen does not allow me to see everything and tends to cut off my panels and I don't know how to fix this. I have it set as "Show All" and it still does not work.
I was told to covert it to background strips dynamically. Can someone tell me how to do this step by step?

View 2 RepliesI have a flash app running on 1200 machines on a local network. Currently, the app polls the php server every 10 seconds, and is returned a 14 byte string with the state. If the state is new, the app changes mode and gets new data from the server. 1200 machines polling every 10 seconds to pick up ~8 state changes per day seems like an awful lot of network traffic for this.
There is other traffic on the network (streaming video, web surfing etc). When the network load gets high, some of the machines loose the ability to communicate with the server and hang. When I run 400 machines I don't run into this problem. Looks like a scalability problem. What would you recommend for lightweight communication between server and 1200 clients? Remoting with AMFast? XML Sockets? Something else entirely?

What I want to be able to do is to extract all of the items listed in the categories and put them into an array as individual items. So would like have an array that contained Cosmetics, Pharmaceuticals, Food, Sportswear, Football, Rugby and Tennis as individual items within the array.
I have this working, but I am looking for a better solution.This bit calculates to total amount and rounds up:
Code:
textTotalVar = Math.round(text1Var * text2Var * text3Var * text4Var);
textTotal.text = textTotalVar + " lb/hr";
This bit toggles the comma if textTotalVar is a thousand or greater.[code]........I would like more space on either side of the comma so it doesn't look crowded. How can I do the below when the total value is five characters, for characters and three or less with a hidden comma?
Code:
textTotal.text = first character of textTotalVar + " , " + last three characters of textTotalVar + " lb/hr";
