Actionscript 3.0 :: Count Number Of Movieclips (in Different Class) Added
Apr 15, 2010
1) I want to count the number of movieclips(in different class) added. That is, may be I have 10 clicks, how many bigfish and smallfish are created. What function is suitable to call for doing this.
2) I have a problem on the hittest, it comes out "no hit" only but I still can see the movieclips overlap. And if I want to modify that only check whether smallfish is overlap with bigfish, what should I do? Also, there are functions inside the movieclip itself to give motion.[code]

I have a holder movieclip, its base class is foo.
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Foo extends MovieClip {
public function Foo() {
[code]....
Suddenly, all the little bar movieclips within foo revert to regular old movieclips and don't fire.[URL]It still has its children, they're added and displayed, but their type changes to MovieClip, ignoring the base class.

I have a holder movieclip, its base class is foo.[code]I put a trace in the constructor of bar so I can tell if it's being loaded properly, and when I drag out foo onto the scene and run the clip, all the little bars within it fire off correctly. However, when I add it to the scene dynamically, such as like this in the Main class:[code]Suddenly, all the little bar movieclips within foo revert to regular old movieclips and don't fire. What's interesting is if you typecast one them as Bar at some point, and their normal class is set to Bar (within the movieclip itself, rather than base class), it works and the constructors all fire, like this:[code]However, if you want multiple different types of Bar clips, and give each a base class of Bar, this won't work. They all spawn as generic movieclips. It DOES work if you go through and typecast them as either Bar1 or Bar2, but that means in practice you would have to try to typecast every child as every top-level object type every time you added the clip to the stage. You also can't have a bunch of movieclips of the same type since Flash doesn't allow it, so each one needs to be a new class, and have that class typecasted when the parent is placed on stage. Kind of defeats the purpose of OOP.
This seems to be a bug in Flash itself, but is there any way to fix it?You can download an example file here with a couple extra traces to show off what's going on: url... It still has its children, they're added and displayed, but their type changes to MovieClip, ignoring the base class.

I'd like to make a counter in AS3.0, in a document class file, for a Flash project, whereby the counter counts the number of movie clips added to the stage.The current document class is set up with a number of timers, an "ouber"timer, which activates three additional timers every 500000 milisecs, while the additional timers add different movie clips to the stage, each adds a different amount and at a different rate.And, i'd like to add some code to this AS file, to tell flash to count how many mcies and if 20 is the sum of the mcies on the stage, stop the timers and remove the mcies.

How do I count the number of instance of mc_invis_table on stage?

I am creating a simple image viewer using AS3 and getting image URLs from flashVars in the HTML. I want to use an if argument to have it perform one function if there is only one flashVar and another if there are more.
I have it reading the flashVars fine and can write if statments all day long, the trouble I am having is counting the number of flashVars being passed from the HTML. here is a real dumbed down version of what I am trying to do (which doesnt work because I can not figure out the correct process to follow):
[as]
var numberOfVars:Number = 0; // to store the number of flashVars
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters; //get the flashVars
[Code].....

I'm using the PopUpManager to bring a bunch of event windows up.I want to make it so that only one window can be open at a time, but I don't see anywhere in the code that tracks open windows to set up a conditional. I guess it just creates the windows and then sets them free?Thinking about a windowCount variable that increments when I add a window and decrements when I remove one, but since the PopupManager is called in different classes I'd have to start throwing events all over the place. I can do that, but I'm wondering if there's a more straightforward method?

I have a text field that has 2 lines for visible text. I then pass it a string to display but the string might be to long to display all of the string. My problem is that I want to count how many characters that are NOT visible in the text field. The text field has to stay the fixed size and cannot change

I'm trying to parse some simple XML and use it to render some controls, its all going so well. I'm having some trouble with E4X and counting the number of nested nodes within a certain child...code is as follows....
Code:
<questions>
<question>
<label>History of Smoking</label>
<value>3</value>
[Code]....
The Alert keeps coming up as 1. I read in the documentation that this will happen with XML objects but it is working when I create the XMLList and counts the number of questions I have. The code is working except it is only rendering 1 RadioButton, very sad. I suppose I could put the number of options within the <options> tag but I'd rather do it dynamically to avoid errors.

i want to measure the number of key presses or mouse clicks (not sure what's easier) within a 30 second interval. the number of clicks/presses corresponds to the timeline, which has different looping animations at different speeds. so if u click/press lots, you move to a faster animation. it reassesses every 30 secs to move you or keep you where you are. I'm really unsure how to go about counting presses or clicks. I'm really stuck.
