Actionscript 3 :: Accessing A Subelement In Flash?

Mar 14, 2011

In Flash CS5 I have a button with an instance name "btn", which is made up of movie clips with instance names "mv1" and "mv2".

The question is: can I use gotoAndStop or something similar on the movie clips inside the button from the stage in which the button is instantiated. In pseudocode:

btn.mv1.gotoAndStop(3);
btn.mv2.gotoAndStop(7);

Accessing Webcam On MacBook Pro Through Flash CS4?

Aug 9, 2009

I've been trying to access my webcam on my macbook pro using flash cs4 in an attempt to try and use the live feed to detect levels of motion and from there use that information to alter / animate an image on the screen (idea being more movement = more change in image), however I cant seem to get my webcam to even stream out and play on a flash file.

The code I am using is:
start code
var camera;
var video;
camera = Camera.getCamera();
video = new Video(camera.width * 2, camera.height * 20);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);
end code

And when I run the file it asks for me to grant access to webcam / microphones (which is what it should do) but it doesnt stream to the file.

Flash AS2 - Accessing LoadVariable With Number On End

Apr 14, 2012

I have a flash that loads variables from a mysql database. It loads them with their id appending the variable. Example:
Variable Name:itemName
Id:1
var sent to flash:&itemName1=(item name in database)

Now the problem is in flash loading that variable with the added id at the end
Code:
onClipEvent(data){
t = this.totalItems;
for(i = 1;i <= t;i++){
itemNames = this.itemName + i;
_root.itemList.addItemAt(i, itemNames);
}}

But the list returns NaN. I so far have 2 items in my database so these are the values returned.
itemName1
description1
price1
itemName2
description2
price2
So I thought this.itemName + i would return the value itemName1 where i=1 in the for loop. Is there any other way to do this?

Flash :: Accessing A MovieClip On Script?

Aug 20, 2011

I'm used to working with AS3, but due to recent events I need to work with AS2, and I'm having trouble with a simple task: How do I access a MovieClip in AS? I drew something, converted it to a symbol (of type MovieClip) and ticked "Export for ActionScript". I gave it the name "MyMC". now, when I'm in some other MovieClips action, how do I access the MovieClip I drew on stage before?

Flash :: Accessing A Symbol That Is Already On Stage Through As3

Jan 4, 2012

I have several symbols in the library (using Flash CS5), and all of these instances have a custom base class set with a method (lets say x()). I have the symbols already positioned on the stage using the IDE, and I wanted to access them through as3 and run the method. I understand that you can instantiate a new object of an item in the library, but how would I access the object that are on the stage already?

var objectList:Array = new Array();
objectList.push(InstanceName1);
objectList.push(InstanceName2);
objectList.push(InstanceName3);
objectList[0].x(); //trying to run the method on the existing Symbol

However, flash returns an error saying that the object does not have method x(). Also looking through the debugger, it doesn't seem like the item pushed is an instance of the base class, rather it says (prototype). This works of course if I were to create a new instance of each, but I would rather access the ones that are on the stage already.

Flash :: Accessing Private Files From Amazon S3?

Apr 27, 2010

I have flash (AIR) application running on a single controlled system (there is only one computer running it and nobody has access to it).I will host some files on Amazon's S3 and I need to make sure that only my flash app running locally on that computer can access those files.I'm wondering what the best (most secure) approach would be for doing this.My initial thought is to make the files on S3 private and store the secret key on the local computer running the flash app. Then when I needed to access the files from flash I would send out an authenticated query string with some expiration time. The only problem with this is that I don't know how to generate the S3 signature in flash. Also I'm a little skeptical about storing the secret key on the flash machine (even though it's a privately owned machine with no other users using it).Is there a better approach perhaps?I have access to a server with PHP, so I could maybe use that as some kind of proxy, I'm just not sure how while keeping the file access secure and not creating a bottleneck through the web server (as opposed to direct access to S3).

Accessing Variable From Frame With Button In Flash

Mar 24, 2011

I am a beginner in Flash development and I was just recently assigned to fix an old Flash project at my work. Essentially, the application is a video booth whereby users can record up to 60s of video via their webcam and then share it either via email, twitter, or facebook. When the application is started, a video ID is generated, and that is used as the video's file name when it is streamed and saved to the server. I am sure there is a better way to do this, but the way I came up with is to grab that video ID and pass it to the "Share" page as a URL variable, and then use that to access and share the video from the server. How I can access the video ID from the button that is sending the user to the "Share" page.

Here is the code:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
var ns:NetStream;
var cam:Camera;
var mic:Microphone;
var vidId:String = configName();
function tracer(p_s) {
[Code] .....

Flash :: Accessing Movieclips Within Movieclip Using For Statement?

Nov 1, 2011

I am trying to access movieclips within my movieclip using a for statement. To try and make this clear, here is how it looks at the moment:

sections = Holder movieclip where dtf_sections is placed, as well as other clips that are needed.

dtf_sections = Where all the title movieclips are placed that are going to be used when called. Placed in here to make it easier to move, within sections

title = Movieclip that contains the text that needs to be changed, within dtf_sections

Here is my code that works:

sections.dtf_sections.title1.dtf_title.text = "Section 1"

There are upto 10 titles within dtf_sections. So, what I thought would work is this:

for(var i:uint=1; i<10; i++){
sections.dtf_sections.["title"+String(i)].dtf_title.text = "Section" +(i)
}

The reason why they are within the movieclips is masking, and appearing at different times.

Flash :: Accessing Buttons On Stage From Class?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash 8 - Accessing MovieClip In Container SWF?

Oct 19, 2006

Using MovieClipLoader, is it possible for the loaded swfs to access movie clips in the container swf movie? In building a preloader for a previously produced flash app (originally made for CD), I was running across huge problems with some dynamically created masks (created using attachMovie and setMask). My solution (not ideal, I guess) was to move the masks and the masked objects into the preloader ("container") movie. But still need to move them around by code located inside the swf being loaded.

Relevant code from inside the preloader:
myMCL.onLoadInit = function() {
_root.attachMovie("screenText12", "screenText12", 15)
_root.attachMovie("internalMask", "internalMask12", 17)
_root.screenText12.setMask("internalMask12");
}

And from inside the swf being loaded:
_root.screen12.onMotionFinished = function() {
screenText12InY = new Tween(_root.screenText12, "_y",mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, 463, 403, .5, true);
The red is where I'm not sure of how to get in contact with the movie clip in the preloader.
