Actionscript 3 :: Get Leaf Nodes Directly In It?
Aug 27, 2011In a complex XML where I dont know the leaf node names/or the level of depth they are, how could I extract all the leaf nodes inside a XMLList variable directly?

View 1 RepliesI'm having difficulty getting checkboxes on only the leaf nodes of a tree.Before anyone links it, I've seen [URL] and this isn't exactly what I need. I don't want a 3-state checkbox system including both branch and leaf.I understand applying the checkbox item renderer to a data grid but not on a tree.

View 1 RepliesI develop a piece of code that brings me to an xml, all Nodes i use this code:
for(var i=0; i< menu_xml.childNodes.length; i++){
corrent_node = menu_xml.childNodes[i].length;corrent_item.action = corrent_node.attributes.action;corrent_item.variables = corrent_node.attributes.variables;corrent_item.name.text = corrent_node.attributes.name;
[code]....
What I need is for each of the nodes highlighted in green to return the child Nodes. Example: when I move the mouse over the menu Indoor lighting, the results should be: Indoorlighting | LED 10W> 3W LED> LED 6W
For those unfamiliar with tree structures, tree structures are usually dynamic lists where every node has a pointer to two other nodes. They are arranged so it makes for faster searching and stuff and are very useful in programming languages that offer direct access to heap memory. Although I don't know if there would be benefits of making tree structures in AS would be of any help but I decided to have a go at it anyway. Since there are no pointers in flash I tried to just replace pointers to nodes with nodes themselves. Such things usually work in java I think because the language just automatically makes pointers for variables.

I have a tree being populated by an array collection. I don't have control of the data in the array collection and even when a node has no children it still has a "children" property that is causing my tree to treat every node as branch. I can do a simple check on the length of the array in the children property. If this is 0 I need the tree to display the node as a leaf, no disclosure icon. Any thoughts on how I can achieve this? It would be nice if there were a branchFunction like the iconFunction and labelFunction.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a portfolio site in Flash. It's my first complete Flash site, but I know the basic stuff and I'm trying out some actionscripting. So far I have the site itself, with working navigation and a preloader. But I want to have a animation of falling leaves in the preloader, so people have something to look at when the wait for the site to be loaded. It also fits with the general "feel" of the site. I've been trying to do this by using the Falling Snow v2 tutorial from Kirupa, but something is unclear to me. I inserted the movieclip snow_mc, made the leaf, converted it to another movieclip snow, gave the instance name for this clip snow(I'm just following the tutorial, that's why the leaf is called snow and all) copy-pasted the first actionscript part of the tutorial on the first frame in the snow-mc clip, but then I don't know where to put the rest of the AS. The tutorial says to select the snow clip and press F9 and paste, but to do mean on the first frame in the snow clip? Because I keep getting these errors:
**Error** Symbol=snow, layer=action, frame=1:Line 1: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent (load) {
**Error** Symbol=snow, layer=action, frame=1:Line 16: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {[code].....
i have TileList from which i'm dragging some stuff(image) to Tree (something like dragging sounds into playlist in iTunes), but when i can drop this stuff, i see only underline, this mean i can drop it only under or above some leaf-element in that Tree. How can i force it to hide this black underline and highlight leaf-element to which i wanna drop my stuff.

Introduction: I have a flat ArrayCollection of object's, which i group to create the dataProvider for an AdvancedDataGrid. In this AdvancedDataGrid i have different branches representing different type of tasks. I want to conditionally change the icon for the leaf nodes in the AdvancedDataGrid based on a date field stored in each object.For this purpose lets say each Task object contains an id and an updatedDate (Representing when the task was last updated). If the task has not been updated in the last five days (updatedDate+5 < today) the icon of that leaf node(Task) should be red, in constrast to the opposite the leaf icon in the AdvancedDatagrid should be green, e.g. like the image below. In this case task 35 has not been updated in the last 5 days, while 13 and 39 have.
Question: How do i change the leaf icons in the ADG based on the updatedDate of the underlying object? I would think that i have to extend AdvancedDataGrid and override some method, but which and how?I have seen easy ways of changing the open and closed icons on the web, but no way of conditionally changing an open node's icon :)
i gave the tree an ArrayCollection as dataprovider that i pulled from the database, and it contains the children, but the discloser icon wont disappear on an object that doesn't have a child.i think the problem is that the renderer doesn't recognize the leaf child, wich contains a children array of length 0, or null......
View 2 RepliesI have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.

My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.
i have a problem with hitTest, i want when my mouse is on the leaf movie clip the movies clip disappear. or away any where

The .swf is embedded in an index.html file so a link to the URL [URL] starts the flash movie back from the start with the intro and everything. I want it to skip the intro (scenes 1.0 and 2.0) and go directly to the "scene 3.0 (home)" scene.

View 1 RepliesI want know if it is possible - in any way - open FLA files (from versions 6 to 8) into an third IDE, edit this file, converting, for example, texts and animations, automating codes wich converts static texts into dynamics, accessing database etc and export a brand new SWF movie.I have a costumer that told me about a "miterious" programm wich can do all this things like edit/export - direct from his FLA files - a new SWF or EXE media. And save another FLA file with all those modifications. In other words: is it possible I make my own Flash IDE?
