Professional :: DropTarget Check Against All Objects On The Stage

Oct 1, 2010

Not sure the best way to do this. I have a class we will call DropActivity, here is the code

[Code]...

when the stopDraggingMe() method is called from another object (code shown below) I need to see all the objects on the stage to see what objects on the stage my currently selected movie clip is over and assign it to the dropCheck.checkAgainst method (that will be checked against an array to see if it can in fact be dropped, if so set the canBeDropped value to true and therefor run the .stopDrag() ). I have read using root is not a good coding practice in AS 3.

After making the scroll, the draggable objects dont register on the droptarget as they are within another movie clip. Below is i think the part of the code that needs to be changed so the draggable objects know where to find the drop target.

Professional :: Objects Disappearing On Stage?

Aug 17, 2011

I increased the size of my stage to 1280 x 1024 and now objects on the periphery have disappeared. When I zoom in they appear, but when I zoom out or export the movie the objects in the center are there but the objects around the edge do not appear. If I add an object and drag it to the edge I can watch it disappear as I am dragging it, but when I zoom in it is there. I have no masks and I need to create the video at the higher resolution, so I cannot resize the stage smaller.

Professional :: Programatically Create Objects In Library Which Can Be Imported To Stage

Aug 8, 2010

I need to create an object in code which can then be imported to the stage. Specifically it's a circle with an ellipse cut out of it. The size and position of the ellipse masked out need to be parameterized by sliders, and the size of the circle as a whole is also a parameter which might be dragged out on the stage.

Does anyone have an example of how to programatically create an object in action script which can be imported to the library which can take parameters (or rather expose some methods) which can be wired to other things in the project like a knob or slider?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Eval To Check Through All The Objects?

Feb 25, 2003

I was reading another query on this board about NOT using eval, as it had become deprecated, for attaching a name to a new MC. I have been using eval to check through all the objects, and to add ones with a certain name to an array.

for (i in this) {if ((typeof (eval(i))) == "movieclip" && substring(i, 1, 5)== "names") {

would there be another method of doing this using dot notation? sorry if this question seems a little muddled. I am new to flash, some things in it make a lot of sense and others are still confusing me.

Actionscript 3 :: Centering Objects On Stage And Auto-Scaling With Stage Resize

I'm writing a web based flash app that's written entirely in AS3. I have objects on the screen as part of a GUI. I would like the user to be able to resize the window, or make it full screen. I would like everything to auto-scale with the resize, but also remain in the same relative position on the stage.

AS3 :: Flash - Check For Objects Intercepting A Line Of Sight?

May 9, 2011

I've for a while now been trying to work out an efficient way to see if something is in something else's line of sight. A good example is having a sphere that fires a rocket at you if it can see you - but obviously not if you're behind a wall.

Here's how I generally went about doing this:

function cast(end:GameObject, walls:Array, accuracy:uint=10):Object
{
var xp:Number = skin.x;
var yp:Number = skin.y;

[Code].....

Works, but as we know this will get extremely slow with each new rocket added or as the amount of impassable objects increases.

I'm assuming there's a really simple efficient way that I'm missing - I mean, all games do it (Diablo, etc) with hundreds of enemies that don't do anything unless you're visible.

Make Something That Will Check All Var's On The Objects In The _root Time Line?

Apr 4, 2009

How to make somethig that will check all var's on the objects in the _root time line? lets say "allObjects" means all the objects in the _root time line:

Code: Select allif(_root[allObjects]._loc1==1){
doSomething()
}

So lets say that I have 20 pieces of an "A" MC and one of a "B" MC, 10 of the "A" MC have the code "_loc1=1" and the rest have "_loc1=0" and if I roll over the 10 A MC that have _loc1=1 the B MC will gotoAndStop(2) but if I roll over the rest of the A MC's nothing happens.

(the A MC's have different names like: planetX; ship21; enemy61; ... )And a var in the _root time line will have the name of the MC that has the mouse over it (rolled over it)So something like: var MCname = "planetX"

ActionScript 3.0 :: Droptarget Only Contain 1 Mc?

Feb 18, 2009

I'm having a little problem of which I'm guessing the solution isn't that hard.. but I just can't put my finger on it...

The thing is: I have got 5 movieclips which are able to drag and drop. Next to that I've got 20 containers which are all droptargets. The movieclips are able to be dragged and then dropped on a container. So far so good. But what I want is that when I drop a movieclip on a container which already has a movieclip dropped on it, the first movieclip gets removed and the second movieclip is dropped on the container. Or you could also say.. that the second movieclip replaces the first movieclip. This instead of the fact that a container has multiple movieclips dropped on itself.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Check Which Movie Clip Is On Stage?

Feb 13, 2009

I'm trying to create a slideshow, using Flash CS3 and AS3. I have 6 thumbnails with buttons attached to them, and then 6 movieclip images placed on the stage manually, each on a different layer. Inside of each image MC (i.e. image01_mc is the instance name of the first image), the image is animated to enlarge outwards from the thumbnail to make a larger version of the image. Standard operating procedures, and all that. So far, the buttons successfully call upon the frame label inside the imageClips to enlarge.

The next part of the problem is that when clicking the next thumbnailButton, I want the currently enlarged image to diminish in size back to its thumbnail, so that the next image can take its place. I have a frame label inside those imageClips to make that animation.

I think, with my rudimentary understanding of AS3, that I need to find out which movie clip instance is on the stage, using If statements, with some code to gotoAndPlay the frame inside the imageClips that shrinks the image.

I've tried various combinations of If, Else if, getChildByName, etc, that I've found in numerous posts, but nothing seems to work.
