Actionscript 3 :: Changes To Array Of String Variables Doesn't Update The Variables Themselves
Jul 30, 2010
I have a list of strings that I add to an array, then attempt to set those values in a for-loop using data that I read in. The array gets updated, but the values the array contains do not. I also have an array of buttons that I update this same way that works great, but strings don't seem to work the same way. I have tried moving the string array to give it full scope, and still nothing...
public class test extends Sprite
{
// Declare a list of strings
protected var title0:String = undefined;

I'm trying to figure out which is more efficient in terms of memory and speed. What I'm doing is having a series of messages loaded to the screen. Is it just faster to write them in string variable or in an XML document which is more versatile in terms of editing and adding on to the document.

How can I make a bunch of variables from a for loop. for example for (var i=0; i<total; i++) {var bunch(i);}. that i make a bunch of variables named bunch1, bunch2, bunch3. I keep getting errors. I program and use so many different languages that I dont know if that can be done with AS3. my only other alternative i can think of is to create some sort of event dispatcher object array. but I dont know how to get them all to send events to one listener with there index number.

There is a bird, and you control its upwards movement with a key. It has thrust, gravity, it works fine. The problem is I have a bunch of icicles that come at the bird that he is supposed to avoid. I tried this first with math random to use as an x coordinate and than move across the screen, but the icicles had the same x-coordinates sometimes. I tried does not equal(!=) but that doesn't work. I made an array and each number that came out of the array I assigned a different variable. This works fine. I put this variable into the x-coordinate such as mc.x=((n)*60)+480. I did this for five different icicles. All their differnt variables have a different value, and I put them into the same function for each individual video clip, but they still don't go to the right coordinate. Here is the test code just for the initial coordinate of each icicle before it moves...////////////////////////////Quote:
var temp:Array = new Array()
for (var i:int=0;i<8;i++) {
temp.push(i);

I have a class Grid which produces a graph paper like grid on in the drawing area. I then have 5 other classes for different shapes to draw with; Line, Polygon, Ellipse, Curve, Arc Now, these 5 classes use an instance of Grid because Grid has a resolution and a scale. Inside Grid I have:
public function set resolution(x:Number):void {
_gap = (modBy10(x) / 10);
_scale = (modBy10(x) / (this.resolution * _scale));
[code]....
I'm just lost for a solution on how to update every instance of my 5 drawing classes when Grid is changed.For instance, Polygon is made up of multiple instances of Line, Line(length, angle) where "length" is in either in, ft, cm, or m. If the user wishes to change the scale from say 10ft per 100px resolution to 20ft per 80px.. Is there an easier way than re-drawing every Line inside Polygon?

I've just completed a flash banner for our site and my boss has just informed he's bought some bannerad software to manage clicks, etc. Originally my flash was passed variables from the HTML via Flashvars which I accessed using something like this: var manid = root.loaderInfo.parameters.manid Which worked great. But now that the variables are getting passed like this (which I have no control over):

I meant to call it "Convert a value to a variable". Using CS3, AS2: If I have a variable that's a string value = the name of another variable, can I extract the value and then look for the extracted value's matching variable name to get it's value?
Ex:
color = "blue"
box = "color"
(Assuming I don't know the value of box) How would I get the value of "box" out so I could search for the value "color" as if it were a variable? I need to convert a value to a variable name is what i'm getting at... I think.

I'm a beginner that is stuck at the moment. I've made several comboboxes, and what I am trying to accomplish is add those values to an url and pass it.Example: In the first combobox I select year: 2009, second one I select genre: horror, third one I select language: us, which then should string those together and give me this url for example, "file.php?year=2009&genre=horror&language=us"I am working with an array, filling it with values and then stringing it together, but several problems arise, first one, I don't know how to skip the "&" for the first value. Also I do not know how to ignore undefined values in the array.Here is just one combobox I use and the handler:
Actionscript Code:
var seljaartal:Array = new Array({label:"Year", data:""}, {label:"1939", data:"jaar=1939"}, {label:"1940", data:"jaar=1940"},

How can i format a string with supplied variables in AS3?
[Code]...
so in the string above, i would like myString to display "One year consists of 12 consecutive Months", but i'm new to AS3 and do not know how to properly format a string. i'm sure that i'll have to cast the number variable into a string, string(myNumber), but i don't know if casting a movie clip variable to a string, string(myMovieClip), will return the name of the movie clip or produce an error. i'm willing to bet on the later.

I have used flashvars to send a URL query string to my movie, though I need to filter the string to remove one of the variables.For instance, I am trying to remove 'var2' from: var1=aaa&var2=bbb&var3=ccc..However, the query string is not the same every time. For instance, sometimes 'var1' may equal 'aad', 'var3' may equal '183', etc.So basically what I need to do is, regardless of what is contained in the string, always filter out 'var2'.

ok.. I really feel like pounding my head against a wall here. I'm importing variables from a regular txt file. I have dynamic text fields on the main timeline that pick up and show these variables. I know that they are coming into the player at _root, or _level0
rows="5"; is one of them. When I do a debug/List variables, that's what it shows me.

I have a simple object defined by an object literal, and have a couple functions assigned to this object. Inside the functions, I try to access global variables, and it only gets undefined. The Flex debugger tells me the variables are just right up the scope tree.Yes, I know I can access Thing by using 'this', that doesn't solve my scope issue though.Project Flex Compiler Settings: Flex SDK 3.4, Require Flash Player 10.x.Example:
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" creationComplete="Thing.bling();">

I have some variables created on the main timeline and a mc called options which will be where those variables can be manipulated. A way I've tried to this is by creating a first array(array1) and populating it will all the variable names found on the main timeline, and another array(array2) containing the values of the variables the user has changed(which are displayed on some dynamic text fields). To make these changes, an "apply" button is pressed which will set the values found in array2 to the variables in array1.[code]How would you do this so that var1, var2... are updated properly according to the values found in array2?And because array2 contains strings(read from dynamic textfields), how do you deal with that since var1 and var2 are numbers?

I have a string variable that looks something like this:
2012-03-07 135.06 135.91 134.93 135.69 143616800 135.69
2012-03-06 135.35 135.43 134.36 134.75 202129900 134.75
It continues like this, a list of reoccurring variables seperated by spaces, for a few more lines.How can I separate the string and push the different variables into their appropriate arrays. The end result should look like this:
dates = [2012-03-07, 2012-03-06]
variable1 = [135.06, 135.35]
variable2 = [135.91, 135.43]

Is there a standard way to send variables through a banner ad? A client wants a banner that lets the user enter his mobile number, then receives a code by sms, and then enters the code into the banner. If the code then validates, the user is sent to a page with a login form with the phone number and code filled in. It must be possible to add the phone number and code as parameters to the clickTag somehow? I found that Adform supports using ";cppar=1&" and then variable=value pairs, but is this a standard, or a special feature of Adform?
