Flash - How To Reuse XML Object In ActionScript
Feb 10, 2010I am writing a bit of actionscript that loads an xml file and displays movie clips etc.. appropriately on the stage. However I have come to bit of problem where I want to reset the display via a function through loading a different xml file. I have loaded the new file but the display doesn't change as if its still loaded the previous xml.
Below is the first bit of code that loads the first xml object and runs my function that alters the mcs on the stage.
function CallLineFunction1() {
xmlFile1="test.xml"
// set up XML object
var my_xml1 = new XML();
my_xml1.ignoreWhite = true;
[Code] .....
Whilst I've tested that my second generateRW2 statement is run (which it is) the display stays the same using the attributes of the old xml. I've tried using the delete command but to no avail. I'm hoping I don't have to copy everything to a second frame and run it from there as there are multiple layers and hundreds of mcs that require alteration depending on the xml data.
Actionscript 3 :: Reuse An Image Thats Been Loaded Into Flash Via Loader()?
Jun 12, 2011I'm displaying an external image in Flash with the loader object, and then addchild() and that whole thing. Im wondering how, if possible, I could then add that same child to another movie clip. So far, when i do, it doesn't show up in the original movie clip anymore. Is there a way for me to display an image twice by pulling it from the same source like you would do with html,css?

View 4 RepliesFlex :: Reset/reuse Progress Bar?
Dec 29, 2009I'm using a progress bar to let a user know how much more live streaming video data is to be buffered before it starts playing.Have that much working fine.Problem is, if the buffer gets used up, and I need to rebuffer, I can't seem to get the progress bar reset and visible again. Seems once it hits 100% on app start up it can't be reused.I'm catching the proper NetStream.netStatus events.The hook for the empty buffer is there and is executing.I'm just not seeing how I might redisplay and start a fresh bar there?
I've tried bar.visible = true and nothing appears.Also tried making a new one and setting visible each time the buffer is empty but no dice.Seems to just be ignored.
Actionscript 2.0 :: Reuse A Deleted Function?
Oct 24, 2011We area trying to create a virtual world application. We are using hitTest to make the avatar enter the room. That hitTest event is inside an onEnterFrame event of the avatar so every time the avatar is on the stage it runs the function and detects if it hits the hot spot or not.
So onEnterFrame we have: (shortURL is a variable that points to the movieClip)
Code: Select allif(this.hitTest(shortURL.detectRoom1)){
attachDialogue(1, "room.swf");
}
[Code].....
The code works, however when the user clicks on no, the dialogueBox still appears since the avatar still hits the room's hotspot. If I remove the commented "delete attachDialogue" clicking the no button will remove the dialogueBox movieclip without any problems. However when the avatar walks on other hotspots it doesn't call the function again.
Are there other ways how we can remove the movieclip and set the attachCounter to 0 when the no button is clicked? Or how can we reuse a deleted function?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reuse Cached Images With Loader?
May 28, 2009I need to load a range of images and make them crossfade over time in a never ending loop (rotating gallery).
Using the Loader I display a preloader everytime I load an image.
The problem is that the next time I load the image the damn preloader shows up in a split second (because I'm using the Loader to load the image again).
How do I write the routine of loading an image and reuse it again WITHOUT calling the loader a second time?
I read online to read a the bitmapData into a variable. Well, that's all fine. But HOW do I reuse that Bitmap in a never ending carrousel?

View 3 RepliesOop :: Design Several Classes - Reuse Same Ships For AI Controller As Well As For Users Controls?
Jun 9, 2010I'm building simple application on as3. Kind of starship game. What I want to do is to create several different star ships. Each one should have different images (different look), different sets of animation (e.g. when it's flying, burning, damaged), different kind of weapon and also different controllers (e.g. one can be managed by user, another one by computer, and I want to be able to reuse same ships for AI controller as well as for users controls). Each ship is created in the following way:
Create entity
Add spatial
Add renderers
Add other components....
......
n. init the ship
So what I am trying to do:
1) Create StarShip superclass, to store HP (as every ship has it), store spatial (same reason)
2) Create inherited class for any other ship..(It will contain renderer - (responsible for display part), weapon, set of animations), etc
What do you think about such way of composition? Maybe it's better to place everything in super class, and then just create instances using long, long, long constructors like:
StarShip(hp:HP, animations:DICT, weapon:Weapon, ....)
ActionScript 2.0 :: Export Mc's Positions At Runtime In An External File For Reuse
Jan 29, 2005i'm trying to hardcode a complicated looping movement of an mc on the stage. the way i plan to deal with it is first, to use a guide layer to actually tell the mc where to go, and then save at runtime the sequence of position (x/y coordinates) the mc goes to to follow the movement. With this set of coordinates, i will reproduce the movement via actionscript instead of guiding.
how i can output those variables into an external txt file from flash at runtime ?
