View 4 RepliesI'm building a project that has a character navigate through a room by clicking on the floor. Right now, the walls, character, and floor are all children of the same display object for sorting purposes. My question: is there a way to disable mouse clicks to the walls and character while allowing clicks to the floor? Using mouseChildren appears to be an all or nothing deal and I can't seem to isolate individual floor/wall/character objects for use with mouseEnabled.
View 4 RepliesAll Flash is playing fine except now in IE7 +, when someone clicks on the Portfolio link, the preloader comes up but it doesn't advance to the 2nd frame with the content. However, if you click the Portfolio button again, it works fully. No issues on a Mac anywhere and no issues with Firefox in Windows. All content is in Flash and there are a couple of other movies that load as well but I've no idea where to start looking to fix this 'two-click' issue. It's set for Flash player 9 with AS2.0 and I used DWCS4 to insert. [URL]
View 3 RepliesI'm building a kind of dynamic level generator, at the moment I have it draw a grid of alternating coloured squares/plots (for visual debug), currently set at 1 pixel which I then scale up so they are easier to see. I make a list of all these open 'plots' in an array(maybe a dictionary would be better?)... Next I draw a random selection of roads on top of my grid in another sprite. Ranging in width from 2 to 8 plots. First drawing all the horizontal, and then the vertical ones. Now I'm wondering what would be the best way of finding all the plots/pixels that these roads occupy?I thought perhaps I could draw the roads into bitmap data, and then find the x,y values of all the black pixels? something like:
PHP Code:
var bData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(roads.width, roads.height, false);
bData.draw(roads)

When a combobox is elected in the flex app, there is a quick flicker, then the combobox needs to be selected again in order to get the dropdown to open. After that, the dropdown works as expected, but only while selecting the control subsequent times while on the form. Reloading the form requires the double selection again.
View 1 RepliesI have a site with 908 buttons. Basically a person clicks a button, makes a donation (through paypal) and then that button gets their name displayed when the mouse hovers over it. Essentially the button becomes the property of the person who makes the donation. how to disable each button when someone clicks it. Disabling a button isn't the problem. I need it disabled only when the person has made a valid donation. Each button has a unique instance name (b001 - b908). There must be a way.

View 1 RepliesI am currently working on a simple program that when the user clicks a button it adds 1 to a textbox for whatever button has been pressed. For example they click a heads button it puts 1 into the box, they click 1 in the tails button and it displays another 1 in the the box. What I am having a problem with is that once the total number of clicks has been done (15) I want it to stop and not allow anymore clicks.
Here is my code so far:
btn_Heads.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, runHeads);
btn_Tails.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, runTails);
btn_Clear.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clearData);
var coinArray:Array = new Array();
var headsTotal:int=0;var tailsTotal:int=0;
var counter:int=0;
[Code] .....
The code runs all and well but when the total value reaches 15 I want it to stop and not allow anymore clicks.I was trying a for loop. Basically all I need it to do is that the Box's that are getting numbers put in them I need the total 1 to stop at 15 and not allow anymore changes.
Is there a way to set up an unseen variable in flash sort of like keeping score?The best way I can describe it is from the BASIC language I used to use back in the day, where on a click you can make x=x+1, or x=x-3, or whatever depending on the button you click on.And then it would display the score (i.e. whatever is the current value of x) in the corner? give me a link or the actual code you would assign to a single button that will add or subtract to a displayed score in the corner.

View 2 RepliesThis seems like someting I should already know but I am working on a user interface that I want to be skinable. I have about 8 different graphical elements and I want to change the appearance of these 8 different movieClips just by clicking a single button. I thought I would just create a new keyframe in my main time line and then manipulate the movieClips but that changed the appearance of the movie clip on frame 1 as well. Clarification: I want to change the color of my user interface background and I want to change the color of some clickable images as well. I want frame 1 to have a white background and I want frame 2 to have a red background. Do I need to create more movie clips and drag them onto my stage or can I just use the existing movieClips since all I really want to do is change colors?
