I was just working in a Flash file, and an mc was in the top left, with an x vale of around 12px.I copied and pasted that mc into another file, and when I looked back at the first file, the x value was 448.6px.
View 3 RepliesI created the following AS for a particular frame
Code:
cnx.addEventListener(CNXConnection.DIGITAL, onDigital_10);
function onDigital_10(e:DigitalEvent)
{
[code]....
While debugging everything works properly if I'm testing that frame.But, pushing a button in another frame, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference at "frame number:raw number"
I'm quite sure that the problem is that the variable e.Join changes its corresponding e.Value pushing a particular button in another frame (as must be). Any ideas how to link that information to the frame that create the error?
Can we put [Bindable] on functions/methods? I know that bindable is used to change the value of the source property to destination property. But not sure if we can use that for methods. why we cannot put/ if we can then what will be the outcome?
View 1 RepliesI completed the 3d Photo Panels tutorial and everything works great. The problem I have is that, when you click out of the browser to a different application or the desktop, the panels start spinning at a ridiculous speed. movie when the mouse leaves the stage? I understand can add an event listener for when the mouse leaves the stage, but I just don't know what to write to stop the movie and then restart the movie when the mouse returns. I'm fairly new to AS3 and it's been a while since I've coded AS2 or used Flash.Here's my code:

I am facing a real nightmare. I have many Assets which use strange origin points. I need to essentially draw these assets to a BitmapData, but the origin point causes all kinds of problems. StackOVerflow does not let me attach an image so I will try to describe. Imagine you have the shape of a digit "8". You have 3 of these shapes.... Each shape has a different origin:
1) The middle of the "8" shape
2) The centre of the top "o" part of the "8" shape
3) The centre of the bottom "o" part of the "8" shape
How, with a single drawing routine, can I correctly draw each of these instances to a BitmapData? Ideally I want to find the top left part of any Sprite bounding box, and bitmapdata.draw() from there. But after 2 days, all of my attempts either get clipped.... or using matrices, they do not work for every origin point and different drawings get clipped in different locations.
I have an FLV player that provides a read-only property called myPlayer.timecode and it displays the time in seconds as a String (xx.xxx).I am trying to assign that value to a variable so I can convert it to a number to use in some calculations, comparisons, etc. I can assign this property to a dynamic text box and display it on the screen, but I cannot assign it to a variable and have the variable value show correctly on the screen. What do I need to do?Ex: myPlayer.timecode value is 10.000 and shows as 10.000 in the dynamic text box called myTime1. (I entered the property into the Var: input box).Created a String variable called timePlayed, and assigned it to a dynamic text box called myTime2.However, I cannot find a way to assign the property myPlayer.timecode to this variable. I can only display a value of "undefined" or "NaN" in the text box myTime2.

I am using an array to return data to an application and as the array is filled with data using a loader and the order is important it happens that data in slot n is inserted later than data in slot n+1. How do I know that the array is full as I know the number of elements to be loaded? The length property doesn't work for this. I could go through the array each time I put something in and look if every slot is full but that seems ineffective.

how to turn a variable number from positive to negetive using AS2? eg:
Code:
myVar1 = 40;
//use code to change to negetive number
myVar1 = -40;
I was wondering if there is way to replace the checkNumber() function with a more flexible code. That will allow the user to change the amount of images in a folder.
Lets say i have 7 images in a folder (gal1) that im showing in a simple gallery.
What i wish to do is to be able to add or delete or change the number in the images in the folder without having to change the acctual code.
if(imageNumber==7) is rather hard, how can i make this more flexible to allow for the changes?
Code:
next1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber:Number = 1;
function checkNumber();void{

So when you have a Document class, it is added as an object to the stage. If the equivalent of stage.getChildAt(0); is traced in any custom class linked to the Document class it will output the Document class (ex: GalleryDocument). If you trace it's name property like so stage.getChildAt(0).name; it will output root1.
Is it possible to assign a different name to the Document class or is there a limitation on changing the name property when it comes to the root object?

View 1 Replieshow can I add number to a current variable in actionscript. My variable has data coming though php(numeric data) so I want to create an if statement to say this:
If the data number(let's use 5) is equal to 5+any number then do something.
Should be pretty simple but I can't seem to figure it out right now, how can I say "any number" with code?
ActionScript Code:
if(myVar == myVar+1){
//do something;
}
Thing is the + number is uknown... so + 1 may not work cause the number may be higher than 1.
I'm stuck on this annoying bug of Flash:to animate a character i have different graphic symbols of hand positions inside a single container graphic symbol; that way instead of having to swap different symbols while animating and tweening, i just have to change the number on the "single frame" input box on the properties of the symbol.
It worked fine a few sessions ago, but now it won't let me change the frame number if there's a tween before that keyframe; tha keyframe isn't participating on any tween, and may even have some frames between the previous tweening one. The only way it will change is if i remove the first tween or add a blank keyframe between them, wich of course isn't an option when animating... i know it would work if i add a new layer and continue there, but it'll add a lot of mess to the already busy timeline.
The strange thing is that it remains working on some frames, from the previous session, and if a cut and paste them i can change the frame number freely; but if i try to build a secuence from scratch, it won't let me, even on a new document.
the variable Im interested in is numSound which at the moment is a random number between 1 and 5, but it repeats too much and a sequence would be fine. I know very little actionscript and nothing I have tried works,the code, or what seems the relevant code, is
Code:
private function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number

I have a stack of 3 Mcs, 1, 2 and 3, one over the other, at the same layer.

Is it possible? I tried to make it, but discovered that it's not possible to define negative depth for a MC.

View 2 RepliesI have a custom component on which I have bound an array collection to one of its proeprties: <comp:MyComp id="comp" prop="{images}" /> images is an arraycollection In the components' code I would like to know which event to listen on everytime images updates props. I tried a setter on props but the setter only gets called once when props is first set. I tried the collection event but I get "Update" events sent on top of 'add' and 'remove' events and I would rather not have to manage those. So is there an event(flex or otherwise) that is fired every time a component property is updated by a bindable property?
