Is there a way to access the child of a selected movieClip in JSFL.
ie i can access the selected movieClip using fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[i]. Now i also want to access the child of this movieClip.
My aim is to give instance name to all the movieClip in an FLA
How can I access a movie clip's children (specifically child movie clips) in jsfl? [code]...
View 1 RepliesI want to be able to select a item (image, movieclip etc) that has been added to the stage in Flash and access its file name.
So if I drag a image called 'imageOne.png' onto the stage, I want to be able to access its name, 'imageOne.png', and pass it to a Extension for Flash that I'm building. I know I can get details from the library, but not from the items selected on the stage.
Can anyone tell me how to access this information using JSFL.
I've developed a neat WindowSWF panel after watching Lee's demonstration video. I got everything I needed to work, but I'm having trouble getting information from my sound files. Basically I have a list of sound objects (.wav format) in my library and I want to find the duration of each file so that I can add them to existing movie clips, then add or remove frames depending on the length of the sound file on the frame. I've been pouring over the jsfl actions libraries and can't find any method to get the duration of a selected sound file.
View 2 RepliesI've used this site as a resource leading up to this, not particularly sure if I worded this correctly I have a class "Block" which is just a square (will be something else later on in the process) I want each block to have controls to add an additional block in either direction so I have another class BlockButtons which has my buttons for each direction.
And another class GlobalVar where I keep all my variables for funsies

I've got a dozen movie clips on stage, each with 3 children, and each of those have 8 children, as example named u01-u08.
Is it possible to access u01 directly without the parent names? like a wildcard? like the xml way of getting to nodes with a .. ?
sort of like: stage..u01.alpha = .5;
I am trying to add a child in a movie clip and perform basic operations on the child but I cannot get access to the child.
It loads the child to the movieclip "FLine1MC" but it says FLine1MC.ClipArt1 does not exist when I try to change the x location.
function AddArt1(evt:MouseEvent): void {
var ClipArt1Request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/mypic.gif");
var ClipArt1:Loader = new Loader();
ClipArt1.load(ClipArt1Request);
FLine1MC.addChild(ClipArt1);
FLine1MC.ClipArt1.x = 550;
}
Anybody know what's my error?
By that token, is there a way we can check the exact path of an object?
I am developing a shopping cart for my web store. What I am trying to do is initially a store front is rendered where a user selects the products and adds them to a shopping cart. The "cart" is a vector that holds all of the products selected. The user is then sent to a review page where he/she can review their order. It is then communicated to a PHP page for the final checkout and what not.[code]...

This is probably super simple, but for me.. not!I am loading external swf into my main swf.How do I access a movieclip within a child. This is my code:
function loadFolio (event:MouseEvent) :void{

contentLoad.load(request);

I've dynamically created a whole bunch of movieclips.
I've given each clip a name based on a variable number:
mc.name = "mc"+i;
I've also use addChild to add a couple of dynamic text fields to each movieClip, named myText1 and myText2.[code]...
I created a child that will be added on runtime. How do I access a movieclip on the mainstage from within the child?

I'm transitioning a flex 3 application to flex 4. There was AS code in the flex 3 app that worked:
var myCurrentSelectedChild:String = myViewStack.selectedChild.id;
Now, in flash builder and flex 4.5, it throws the error - "-1119: Access of possibly undefined property id through a reference with static type mx.core:INavigatorContent". I'm trying to get the viewStack's selected child's id.
I have a package that scales a pic up when the pic is moused over. Also in the .fla that references that package, I have code that loads the pics into movie clips on the stage(using XML).
My problem is that when I mouse over the pic it goes behind the other pics that are next to it. The moused over pic needs to appear above the surrounding pics. I know this is an addChildAt / indexing issue. I'm just having trouble working it into my code.
Actually, the package code (PhotoScaler.as) has a line that is supposed to make the moused over mc go above everything else, but it doesn't work when I add a pic to the symbol
Here is the Package code:
Code:
package AS3code {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

i have problem with swfLoader in flex, when i close following code in click method i can easly add many swf to main application
<mx:VBox id="content" width="100%" height="100%" ></mx:VBox>
public function doIT():void
{[code]....
when i close adding those swfs in loop i have the same error, it looks like child apps couldn't access certain objects that were instantiated by another child app, so what can i do?
I've seen some discussion on how to load a child swf using swfLoader and accessing it's variables but I am wondering if it is possible to do this without adding any code to the child swf.Either accessing public vars or listening for funciton calls would work fine
View 2 RepliesLately im trying to do some experimental things with JSFL, and i was wondering if it is possible to listener for an event when a component (that i have made) or movieclip is dragged from library on the stage.i want to create something that i'll get a component and drop it on a mc. when the component is dropped on the mc the component will save the mc as a reference in some var.maybe with events isnt the way to go but i have no clue if this is possible or how to do it another way.

then only 300x300 of mcB movieclip is visible and rest of the part is hidden.
I have an Accordian in my application. Each child of the accordian has a label firstNameLabel) and a button (addPolicyButton). The label's value is being set via Repeater and an array. How can I access the firstNameLabel's value of 'selected child of the accordian' when the addPolicyButton is clicked?In following code testTextArea.appendText prints 'fname: undefined' in the testTextArea.Where as I can see in the accordian that the set label's text is set to 'Michael' which is what repMonitor.currentItem.firstName returned.
Code:
private function addPolicy():void{
testTextArea.appendText("fname:"+firstNameLabel.text);

I have a mainSwf in which I load an external swf, which loads an external swf.( a child of a child). I am trying to set the framerate via AS3 for the childs child by using stage.frameRate= 15;
It doesnt work when the children are loaded into the mainSwf. how to access the stage of a child's child? I have tried root, Movieclip, this but can not get it to work
The only thing that has me puzzled is the preview field. Basically i have a background which is a movie clip, it basically transforms from the loader to the background (over 70 frames).
is there a way to have the preview field for the root movie display a child movie at a frame other than frame 1? At the moment it looks like this: [URL]
But i'm wanting it to look like this: [URL]
It would help or positioning other items if i had the background displayed how it will actually be?
I have a TileList with thumbnail images. Under each thumbnail images I display the name of the image. I want to build rename functionality. So under the TileList is a "Rename selected image" button.
When this button is clicked, I would like to change the state of the itemRenderer component. The label underneath the image will change into a TextInput so that the user can type a new name. This is much like the Windows rename file functionality.
How can I access the itemRenderer of the selected image? How can I make it happen that it listens to the click event of the Rename button?[code]...
I'm writing a FlashLite ActionScript2 piece of code. I have a series of textfields that are dynamically created and displayed on screen. I then wish to drag each of these textfields around. To achieve this I used some code from another flash site for dragging and dropping. I have two problems:
1) The txtMovies are dynamically allocated so each as a number appended to it, i.e. txtMovie0, txtMovie1 and so on. I can't figure out how to assign these in a non hardcoded fashion within a loop i.e.
object_array[0] = ("txtMovie"+i);
When I do this, it doesn't work. I think it's because it's not an object but a string. I tried using Object as a prefix to the part in brackets, tried [ ] etc... but couldn't get it to work.
2) In the function fnTxtMovieOnRelease I'd like to access the parameters (i.e. .text) of the selected text movie but, I don't know how to access it. I have no idea how to detect which of the movies are selected and thus access their individual text strings. I've tried to pass a parameter to the fnTxtMovieOnPress function but this then stops that code from working and I really don't know why.
I'm using Flashbuilder 4. I have a Spark TextInput control, and I'm implementing a "Copy" button that will copy the selected text only from within this control to the clipboard (pretty much like the RMB Copy does).
