MX04 To Move Snap-to Bubble Of Symbols?
Sep 14, 2011
I've been away from Flash for a while, and have been trying to get back into it by creating a simple movie. I'm trying to animate some characters along a path, but need to move the character's snap-to bubble (not sure what the proper name is - the little circle which 'connects' to the motion guide) so that the character is in the right position in relation to the path. I can't for the life of me figure/remember how to do this. Is it possible?

I am trying to Scale the bubbles within the bubble chart. The problem is, I have no control over the data coming in, and the radiusField values are usually below 0 ( no negative values ) with a max of maybe 2.
I created an ItemRenderer for the BubbleSeries, and tried adding a scaleX and scaleY value on the createChildren method, but nothing happens.

how to move an object built from multiple symbols (including movie clips with interactivity) in a timeline other than the root? I tried putting them all in another symbol, but then the interactivity was lost.
On a boad scope, what I'm trying to do is animate a "digital multimeter" out of the way when not in use, and vise versa.

I'm working through a book called Foundation Game Design with Flash, and I'm finding the Flash IDE confusing. I've been programming for several years, so working with AS3 directly is far easier than trying to understand symbols and nested symbols and the difference between graphics and movie clips and scoping issues and all that -- when tied into the IDE.
How many of you who are making games in AS3 also use the Flash IDE? Can anyone recommend a resource that is AS3 heavy and Flash IDE light? I don't care how much time I may or may not save by using things like the timeline, I just want to understand what I'm using.

I'm attempting to use CS4 (PC/Vista, if that matters) to create a SWF file that will basically act as a "library" of commonly used symbols. This SWF would be loaded at runtime by other SWFs, which could then use the symbols within it, including all art and code assets.

I want to have the parent of my class handle the event first, then I want to have the child handle the event. Is there a way to explicitly bubble the event up? I want to do something like this:
...
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, characterClicked);
...
private function characterClicked(e:Event):void{
// pass event to parent to be handled first
...
}
Is this possible, and if so how?

I'm working on a little game. The machanics are fine, but I'm curious on the best way to work the "cut scenes" between the action. This will involve some "text bubbles" for the conversations.
I guess there are several ways to do this. I could actually make frames for each conversation frame, leaving the text drawn on each frame. I'm tending towards this method, as I can see it all as it should be layed out.
Is it worth it trying to store all the text in a sperate file that is called upon when the text is needed? I have seen this done in many other games (non-flash), but in those games there is quite a lot of text.

I'm looking to help a friend with his site and basically, I need a good tutorial on how I could create a character with a voice bubble that, when you click on a button, displays a random quote. Also, I know this might not be the right forum to ask this in, but would this be easier to do in Dreamweaver if I just place the item of the character and have it load up a random voice bubble image? If so, are there any good tutorials for that?

I have two components being absolutely positioned within a container (they are MapSymbols on an ILOG Elixir map, if that helps). Each component is a VBox with an Image and a Label. Images have functionality tied to the Click event; labels do not.
The problem is when 2 items are positioned so that the label of one is above the icon of another in the z-index, so that the label eats any mouseOver and mouseDown events. Bubbling doesn't help since it bubbles from the label to the vbox to the container, never hitting the lower element. I can't set the vbox to mouseChildren="false", since that keeps the image from getting clicked, as well.[code]...

I'm wondering if there is any way to make the bubble sizes scale or resize when the size of the chart resizes. If the bubbles are set to a specific pixel size, it seems as though the size is set and that's it. So, if your chart is large, the bubble is size X and if the chart is small the bubble is still size X. [code]...

I've tried to set the bubble property to true but I've read that this only works for UI components.Is there a way to enable this for custom classes that are not UI components?

I was trying to modify the kirupa "falling snow" tutorial into a water bubbles effect which is just making it up side down. However, I was having trouble to make the bubble start from a certain point in a movie. For example, I was trying to make the bubble start from the bottom of the screen, but it didn't seem to work for me. Therefore, I was hoping if there is someone who can help me to solve the problem.

I'm trying to make a bubble movie clip, instance name storeBtn, grow in and out and fade in/out. I understand now that I can't use more than one prototype object because their onEnterFrame's replace each other? On their own each of these protypes work, although the scaling one isn't contraining the movie clip, it squishes the bubble in and out a bit. Is there any way to combine alpha and scale in one prototype? I tried adding more parameters but that didn't work. Or is there some other way?Here's the code I'm trying to work with.
MovieClip.prototype.fade = function(minAlpha, maxAlpha, speedAlpha) {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (!this.trigger) {[code].......

I have a Flex BubbleChart and I want to set my bubble sizes explicitely. I don't want flex to take care of bubble sizes using minRadius, maxRadius. I need my bubbles to be rendered with exact size value.

I added a thought bubble over an individuals head and have a couple problems with it. The first is that when you rollover one of the other individuals they should be on top of the thought bubble. The other issue is when you click on an individual a movie comes up, but the thought bubble stays there. I want it to disappear until they go back to the main screen. Here is the flash file: [URL] When you rollover the top individuals they are executing the following code:
invisible._height = 190;
this.swapDepths(_parent.getNextHighestDepth());
transition(this._name);

[code]I added MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER event listener to the 'back' sprite, but it doesn't get called, because the 'text' element is in front of it.I want to keep the event firing only when mouse is over the 'back', so I can't add eventlistener to the 'btn'.I could put some transparenet duplicate of 'back' in front of the 'text' and add listener there, but I believe there should be a more elegant solution.Maybe there is some way to exclude an element from the whole capture/bubble event procedure?

In Actionscript 3 is there any way to determine the precise display object hierarchy an event will traverse through when dispatched from a given object? The object is not necessarily a display object.Although I could imagine this actually being useful somehow, in my particular case it is a learning exercise. I'm trying to master the event system in flash and have some locations where I'm very curious what path an event will take when I dispatch it.

Any examples of ActionScript 3.0 code that deploys any kind of sound files to be used in Flash Pro files, for final output as SWF. I am using the code (below) for the Base class of a Bubble Game (of sorts), and the problem is, that when popped, the sound plays a little too late, not spot on.
This is my code - which is linked to the Bubbles in the library of my FLA:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
public class BubbleBaseNew4 extends MovieClip {

I'm working on a prototype that would require me being able to read and track the mouse movement over a playing youtube video. The basic code to replicate my problem boils down to this simple test case:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute"
[Code]....
Expected behavior is:
Youtube player loads The label on the top right tracks the X coordinate of the mouse The number should update even when moving the mouse over the Youtube player
So far the program behaves as expected when running from the IDE (tested on both FlashDevelop and FlashBuilder) and even when running the file manually from the output folder. But, alas, when I try to run it from anywhere else than the debug folder (be it another location on my computer or up on a webserver), the Youtube player seems to eat the events.
I don't get sandbox security warnings when debugging (thanks to allowDomain("*")) but I'm running out of ideas on why the program fails once you take the file out of the debug folder.

I have the actionscript code here for a bubble popping game. When the game starts, bubbles fall down from the top of the game to the bottom and score is kept for the most bubbles clicked or popped in 30 seconds.The size of the bubble is defined by the initialize method in the code, and uses ToString() to calculate the score. ToString gives me a 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method Random through a reference with static type uint. This error which I cannot figure out where it comes from.[code]
