For instance, if I have an ordered set of objects [a, b, c, d, e] with their tabIndex property correctly assigned, and the focus is currently on object c, I want to change the focus so that:
a) Nothing is focused;
b) Next time I press tab, object a gets focused.
stage.focus = null solves (a), however it remembers the current index causing object d to be focused when tab is pressed.

Say that ArrayVar is equal to 3 at the time funct1 is triggered. in funct1 i want the variable curIndex to be set as 3.
I've got multiple images being loaded from an xml document and when they're created they add it to the stage and call a setIndex function to set it to 0. But when I try to the same object later on when they're called I get this compiler error:
I marked in bold the lines that relate. Out of the last two lines I marked bold I get this compiler error when I use the first one: 1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type flash.display:Sprite.
and this output error when from the last bold line: TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

I got a problem with processing an array in actionScript. I removed the last element of an array through array.pop(). After that I would like to put this removed display-object back to the beginning of the array: array.unshift(object). The object is now the first element of the array but it got still its old label (number of the last element). Therefor I can't update the position (graphically) of the display object. Is it possible to "reindex" the array?

I have a sprite loaded as an array, and that array has an event listener for a function. say that function is called funct1. in funct1, i want to be able to grab the index of the array and load it into a variable for future functions and what not. how would i go about this?

So, for sending to individual streams we have to reference the connected netStream we want to send to in some way like this:
sendStream.peerStreams[0].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
and I have to determine which peer I'm sending to by their ID such as "peerID1234"
I know that you can check the peerID of the stream by doing:
sendStream.peerStreams[0]["farID"]
how can I make my send stream function know to use the array index where the peerID is?
so basically it could be like:
sendStream.peerStreams[where peerStreams[]["farID"] == peerID].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
Just new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

I have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.

Anyone know?

If you go here, scroll ALL the way to the bottom and then click on "Donations" - you'll see the scrollbar stays in place.

I recently made a flash banner that changes frames when you click the next frame and last frame buttons, and it also goes to the next frame on a timer. The thing is, I need the timer to go back to it's starting point when you click one of the buttons, so you don't end up seeing a frame for 2 seconds. Initially, the timer starts at 7 seconds, and when you click a button, I'd like it to go back to 7 seconds. Here's my .FLA file:[URL]
Also, whenever the banner goes through all of the frames and comes back to the first frame with the buttons, the first frame next_btn stops working for some reason.

View 1 RepliesI am working in AS2 and I am wondering if someone knows how to make a video so it doesn't reset everytime the user logs in - it just remembers where they are and what they already clicked.I created a video that will be uploaded in a learning management system.Students can click on movie clips and make them disappear.What I would like to have happen is have the flash video remember which movie clips the student already clicked (and made disappear) so that the next time they log in the movie clips that should be invisable remain invisable (rather than starting over)Basically, it is like a little game, once saved you do not need to start at the beginning every time you go back to it.....it remembers where you left off.
View 5 RepliesI have a list component on the stage in an AS3 movie. I populate it with values at runtime and the user can select multiple values. When a button is clicked I want the list to reset to a state where nothing is selected, all I can figure out is to set the selected index to 0 and have the first position on the list either blank or reading "choose from the list" and make the code ignore this if it is selected. Is there a way to reset list (and combobox components) to nothing selected.

View 4 RepliesIs it possible to make some kind of clickable object that resets a flash file? Say you're in a game and your character gets killed. By clicking on a button you you're taken back to the start of the flash file and all the variable reset to their starting positions. Basically I just want to make a button that reloads the flash file the same as hitting the reload button on your browser (except that it just reloads the flash file and not the entire web page).
View 3 RepliesI'm using the same FLVPlayback component to play many page transition videos throughout a large flash site I'm building. On each transition, I'm setting the component's source using myFLVPlayback.source and listening for the fl.video.VideoEvent.READY event before proceeding with each page transition. This works fine as long as the transition between every pair of pages uses a different video.
Unfortunately, I'm running into a problem when the same page-to-page transition video needs to get invoked for two consecutive transitions. When playing the same video twice in a row, setting the source property of the component to the value it already has doesn't seem to do anything, meaning that my listeners for fl.video.VideoEvent.READY never fire. I could do something hackish like setting the source to a tiny, never-used-elsewhere FLV before setting it to the FLV that I'm actually using for the transition as a means of "resetting" the component, but I'd like to know what best practices are in a situation like this (insofar as best practices with something like the FLVPlaybackComponent can be discussed with a straight face).
I've perused the livedocs for the component but came up empty-handed, and manually using NetStream, NetConnection, and Video objects at this late stage isn't really an option.
I have 2 overlapping movieclips on the stage. Both are instances of the same movieclip, but with different names. One bigger then the other, due to a magnifying effect. (I have tried to out-rule that code by the way, so its not that). The intention is to make both movieclips play when the mouse is over the stage and then stop as the mouse leaves the area. Seems simple and I have done that alot of times with other animations.
