ActionScript 3.0 :: Delay Adding Child (Movie Clip) To Stage?
Dec 15, 2011I am attempting to add a movie clip to the stage when a button is triggered. When the user clicks the button the movie clip is added to the stage; it works fine, but the following problems occur:
1) The appearance of the movie clip is delayed.
2) The sound in the movie clip starts to play but the movie clip appears when the sound is finished.
Additional information: 1) The movie clip has the sound in the timeline.Here is the code:
Actionscript Code:
//Buttons: Adds movie clip to stage.readtomeShortA1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playShortAReadMe1);var playShortA1:ShortAReadMe1function..[code].....
2) However, I also want to know is keeping the sound in the timeline of the movieclip the most efficient way to use sound in the movieclip? Or is there better, more efficient way to do it?

Oct 28, 2009I would like to set the stage size to the size of a random jpeg after it successfully loaded. So I don't know the dimenstions beforehand. It there a way to do that without using javascript. I know there is a solution using javascript, but I don't want to use that. I know I can set the stage size by using [SWF(width = 800, height = 600)]. But that only works before you do anything else. Not after loading the jpeg.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A Delay Via SetTimer, SetInterval Or Delay?
Feb 23, 2009I want to create a function based (not frame) delay of about 10 seconds to the function at the start of a flash movie, the code only needs to run once.I'm very new to actionscript and have been given links to SetInterval and SetTimer examples but they all seem to be very complex.The function is below. I believe it's possible to add the commandTimer(delay:Number, repeatCount:int = 0) how me to a simple example.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Tab Indexing Loop Through Parent, External Child Swf, Back To Parent?
Nov 11, 2009I have a parent swf which loads many child swfs (though only one is displayed at a time). My intention was to use the loaded SWFs document class to retrieve an array of objects to be assigned a tab index, combine this with the parent's own array of objects and apply sequential tab indices to them all. But what happens is actually that the parent's objects are assigned an index, but the external swf is unaffected. In fact, the external swf retains its automatic tab indexing, when I would expect that having set a value for InteractiveObject.tabIndex, automatic tab indexing would be disabled.
I've seen similar tales elsewhere. Most posts I've read are wanting to load an external swf, give it focus and loop through those objects, then close the swf and return to looping through the parent. However I would like loop through all objects as one. including manipulating the focus manager(s), and basically fiddling with every tab-related property I know.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Array To Trace Back Number Of MC From Stage
Jul 18, 2008I have created a set of MC's loaded from library via attachMovie in a for loop. Right now I have a set of MC's that are attached with the numbers 1-8. I would like to be able to select a MC and traces back its number. I know this can be achieved through an array. I know how to build arrays, but I do not know how to create an array what would trace back a number form a for loop.
Here is the code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("navClip",this.getNextHighestDepth());
for (i=0; i<8; i++) {
currentThumb = navClip.attachMovie("numberBox", "clip"+i, i, {_x:(i*50)});
currentThumb.imageNum.text = i+1;
navClip._x = (Stage.width/2)-(navClip._width/2);
currentThumb.onRelease = function() {
trace(currentThumb);
};}
I need it to call back in the onRelease the number associated with that clip(array).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add XML Element For Each Child On Stage?
Mar 2, 2012I am writing a program where the user can, in the simplest terms, drag and drop things on to the stage. I need the user to be able to save what they have done and when they come back choose to reload their previous project. My plan was to write all the information(object class, x and y values etc) to an xml file and when the user chooses to load a particular project, rebuild the stage with all objects in their correct locations. My problem is, how do you add an xml element with all of its attributes and child elements dynamically for each object added to the stage?I'm relatively new to XML, but I figured this would work:
ActionScript Code:
var test:XML = <test/>;
test.title = "Test XML";
for (var i=0; i<platform.numChildren; i++) {
[code]....
in a for loop as well. But, these give me a warning that says "adding an element with more than one item is not supported" or something like that.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding A Child To The Stage In First Swf
Aug 4, 2009I am adding a child to the stage in my first swf
Code:

addChild(l);
in my next.swf, I have a button which I want to remove the donkey with::
Code:
removeChild(donkey);
OK - doesnt work - it doesnt let me export the swf anyhow because the next.swf has no 'reference' to donkey existing at all. What's going on?
