I need to use stage.width/height in my CustomClass so I found some topics about it.
if (stage)
{
init(ar,firma,kontakt,oferta,naglowek,tekst,dane);
[code]......
Is there a way I can reference a Movie clip I have on the main stage from a custom class of a document class?[code]
View 1 RepliesHow do I access Stage Class properties in Custom Class?
Class:
package {
import Main;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.Stage;
public class Run extends Sprite {

Output:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
If I have a Document class that extends MovieClip, and I want to use it as the basis for another Document class, is it possible to create a subclass that extends the main document class and use that for a different FLA?
For example,
fla1.fla has a document class of MyMainClass:
public class MyMainClass extends MovieClip
fla2.fla has a document class of MySubClass:
public class MySubClass extends MyMainClass
I've tried, but now I'm getting errors that all of my variables that reference stage instances aren't being found.
I have a custom class created by a main document class, and I want the custom class to run a function in document class after some time.
How can I sent the instruction from custom class back to the document class?[code]...
I'm trying to create a class which will create a tween for several different instances of an object. I am creating the instances in the Document Class. The trick is, I would like to specify how long each tween will take.
Here's what I have so far:
DOCUMENT CLASS
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import mcCloud;
[Code].....
As you can see, I have a variable "myTime" which syncs the timer and the tween. This causes to tween to repeat and the clouds to continually scroll across the stage. How can I determine the var myTime at the time I create each instance of the Movie Clip mcCloud?
I keep getting an "undefined property" error when I try to call an external function from within the Doc class. I added the error message to the Doc Class below so you can see where it occurs.
If I take the code from the Tooltip.as below and place it on the FLA's main timeline I can get things working fine, but I would like to move all script to classes. The document class structure looks like this:
Drag_and_Drop.as
Code:
package {
import Tooltip;// Import custom class
public class Drag_and_Drop extends MovieClip {
[Code]....
I realize that I could just combine all the code in the Doc class to get it working, but it would be nice to separate out this particular code which has only one use.
the website I'm work on has the document class Main. Within this website I have a movieclip on the stage which I built a custom class for its functionality and I linked this movieclip to this class to make it work. There is no reference to this movieclip or class in Main.
Now, I need to communicate between these two classes. Can I do this? Can I dispatch an event from the custom class linked to the movieclip and have the document class listen for an event? How?
I have a document class called Main.as In the class constructor I have the following listener:
enter code here
var listeningFORModeChangeToStudent:Sprite = new Sprite;
listeningFORModeChangeToStudent.addEventListener(TellAllModeChangeToStudent.STUDENT,exp);
addChild(listeningFORModeChangeToStudent);
[code]....
In a third class I make a call to the despatcher in the previous class:
enter code here
var ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent:TellAllModeChangeToStudent = new TellAllModeChangeToStudent;
ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent.tellAllModeChangeToStudent();
I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?
How to access a display object on the stage in a class which is not a document class?
I am looking for a solution that doesn't involve passing the stage as a parameter to the class.
One solution i always come across is using "TopLevel.as". Is it a good method because as far as I have heard using global variables is not recommended because it might cause some problems while working on big projects.
Is there a way to refer to a Movieclip on the stage from a class file of the document class
Lets say I have 3 MovieClips on the stage(a Circle, a Square and a Triangle)
I have the document class which calls another class that controls the MC on the stage
Example
ActionScript Code:
package {
public class Example extends Sprite {
//Create the instance of the class being called
[Code]....
I'm being really dumb today and I know this should be simple.....How do i access the stage from a class which isn't the Document Class? For instance, I want to create a tween which takes in the parameters of the stage's width? So I've written.....
ActionScript Code:
var myTweenX:Tween = new Tween(this, "x", Regular.easeOut, this.x, stage.stageWidth, 60, true);
[code].....

View 8 RepliesI've been working on a project in Flash CS3 for a while. To follow an object on the screen and keep it centered, I'd adjust the Document Class' x and y properties.
Yesterday I bought/installed Flash CS5 and thus Flash Player 10 was also installed. Now when I go play my SWF it seems everything is all buggy, as if the code that modifies the Document Class' x and y properties isn't exactly working properly...
I've since reopened the CS3 FLA in CS5 and converted it to a CS5 format and I can't seem to get it working the way it used to.
Did something change regarding the Document Class and how to modify the x / y properties of it in the Flash Player 10 version? I really don't know what's going on at this point.
when I try to access a property of the document class from another class, I get an error:
Quote:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property _left through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.
Maybe I'm not doing it correctly? This is how I've been accessing document class properties so far. Does the fact that they're private make a difference?

root.property
I'm currently working on an interactive app, (site) which requires me to modify a few textfields, and change images dependant on the user choice (using mouseevent). This is a separate module, thus I'm posting the question in here instead:there are three images, that are lined up, with a textbox next to them. When a image is chosen, and enlarges, the text changes with the chosen image, according to XML.The textFields, 'text_title', 'text_description' are contained in a movieclip, called 'textbox'.This has been built in the Flash IDE (CS3) named info.fla/swf, which refers to a Document class 'com.info', made in Flex Builder 3...I attempted to modify the textfields using this:textbox.txt_title.text = "Loading";textbox.txt_desc.text = "test";But, I was unable to at first to change the text using the document class, as it gives "1120: Access of undefined property <variable>".
View 3 RepliesI am building your standard slideshow flash header for a web page.
There are three main parts:
The Slideshow class A controller class that is used as the projects Document Class Some linking timeline code.
The slideshow class has all the functionality, so I used the Document class to create a new instance of the slideshow and keep a property variable called slideshow that keeps a reference the Slideshow instance.
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
public class Header extends MovieClip
{
[Code].....
Despite me being able to call regular methods that are in the Doc Class from the timeline, I can not call properties without the following error, for example when i say slideshow.play():
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type com.example.test:Slideshow.
I have to make a method on my document class every time I want to wire an event to call an object in my Document Class?

Is it wrong to access it like that. The PuzzlePiece is the export for a puzzle clip. For the time being I am hard coding the dimension as 60. I have aloso uploaded the fla and as files. [URL].
I can't use a "for in " loop to enumerate public properties of a custom class. So I have a class "ClassA" , which has some public properties. if I try :

trace(classInstance.propertyIsEnumerable('property1')); // traces false ????
In AS2 we can not add methods n properties to built-in classes in the way we do in AS1. Like we would -say- write the custom "isNatural" method on the "Math" class as follows : * The following code is valid in AS1 but not in AS2
[Code]...
As the "Math class" is static internally. We know why we can not add custom methods n properties to every class, as the way we do in AS1. Later I came up with senocular' s very nice tutorial on OOP in AS2. And now i know how we can do it in AS2 style in an efficient n organised way. But i have a problem with the following code. It should not work ! but it does... * Following code is valid for both in AS1 and AS2.

I am dispatching an event from one document class and listening for it via another document class.My code in class A.
Code:
this.dispatchEvent(new MYEvent(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE));
trace("Dispatching APERTURE_DONE");
my code in class B.
Code:
addEventListener(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE, onDoorsOpen,true);
trace("Lisetning for APERTURE_DONE");
[code]....
My listener is registering before the event is dispatched, based on my output window, however I never get the "Open Doors" trace statement to fire.

View 3 RepliesI have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.

i wonder why i am unable to access the public properties of this custom class the public var w:Number; and the Public var h:Number; i am tracing them and on an instance of the PreLoader() Class.. and ia m getting NAN;

I am having trouble getting an flv dynamically into a swf file and then getting it to play in a browser.
The objective seems simple enough but I've hit a brick wall. A movie file is to play in the entire browser window (100%) and preserve aspect-ratio when the window is resized.This is done using this code, which is loaded as the document class (Vid.as) in an empty .fla project using CS3
[Code]...
So I had a working .fla, with a document class package in the same directory. Everything was fine, until moving both to a new directory, now the fla cannot find the document class. WTF?
