Actionscript 3 :: Auto-format Variable Declarations In Alphabetical Order?
Nov 21, 2011
While coding, I wondered if a plugin exists that I could highlight a series of variable declarations, hit some special keyboard shortcut and BAM! They would appear in alphabetical order.Is there anything that does this in Flash Builder? Or FlashDevelop even?So it would go from this:
private var _value:Number;
private var _helloWorld:String;
private var _foobar:Boolean;
To this:
private var _foobar:Boolean;
private var _helloWorld:String;
private var _value:Number;

I have some code that looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
level_btn.x = 50 + (i - 1) % 10 * 50;
It sets the x location of my level button. But this is in a for loop (that's what the 'i' is for.) I run it and everything works perfectly, as it should, not a single problem. Then I press the auto format button in the flash actionscript editor. (It's the button that adds all of the ; to the end of each line and other stuff)
Well that changes my code to this:
ActionScript Code:
level_btn.x = 50 + i - 1 % 10 * 50;
thinking it's done me a favour but it hasn't. It's got rid of the brackets so it won't do the maths functions in the correct order. I've tried adding more brackets in places and other stuff but I just don't know how to fix it. It's annoying because every time I press the auto format button I have to add the brackets in again.

Is it possible to get flash to sort in alphabetical order the content of a XML file? In this case what I wanted was a way to get flash to sort the content through the "<name>" child content. Basically I want it to use the name to sort the entries alphabeticaly.[code]

I am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?

I have this script path to an XML attribute[code]...
Also, I have issues with spaces not being added around operators even though I have that set in my preferences. I have access to Adobe's bug system but Flash is not listed, so I can't report the bug. Even their general website "Request a feature/Report a bug" form does not list Flash Pro under the list of apps.

took me like 20 minutes to get why my code is not functionning... this line: tempRef.x=(limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2)+(tempRef.width+dist)*(i+1); after auto format becomes like this: tempRef.x=limitL-dist-tempRef.width/2+tempRef.width+dist*i+1; that's not the same thing at all...may I know why this is happening?

When I click the check mark, message 'The script contains no errors'When I click the Auto format button, message 'This script contains syntax errors, so it cannot be Auto Formatted.ix the errors and try again.'I've never had these two buttons disagree.Code compiles normally and everything works.

I've got a line in my Actionscript like this:[code]If I click the auto format button with this line in there, it adds unnecessary semicolons through the rest of the code and the file stops working. Is there something wrong with the way I have this coded? It works just fine with the code in there before I hit the auto format button.

I found a reference to CS3 Flash's auto format breaking AS3 code on kirupa back in May 2007 but was surprised to find out that it still breaks code by removing parenthesis.Beforetruescale=Math.pow(8,(1 - i) * scaleit);Aftertruescale=Math.pow(8,1 - i * scaleit);Obviously the results are devastating. Would someone check to see if CS4 Flash's auto format still causes the same error when editing .as file? Might be worth the price of an upgrade if it does NOT mess up the format.

Something is corrupt with my Flash Professional CS5 Actionscript Auto format: Comments within a block, such as ' // ' or block comments ' /* ... */ ' are tripping up the Auto Formattor, which returns this error: ' Error with autoformat near line: }'. Comments before package block don't cause an error. When I remove comments within package block, Auto format works correctly.

The code works fine, but every time I click Auto Format it changes the code so it doesn't work anymore, giving me all kinds of errors. I perceive this as something imperfect in the code and potentially preventing it from working as efficiently.

My copy of Flash CS3 seems to have a problem with its Autoformatting. Whenever I press the button, it adds a semi-colon to the end of every single line (apart from the beginning of functions). There's no problem with the Edit > Preferences > Auto format menu.

I have a very strange problem with the Auto Format feature in Flash CS4. Sometimes, when I click on Auto Format, it takes away all the spaces between operators and their keywords. But sometimes, it doesn't. why, and how I can prevent this from happening? I REALLY hate it when the IDE does something I don't tell it to.

When using sound in flash you can also do this with loading an external sound.
my sound.load(new URLRequest("audio/mysound.wav"));
But when you load an .mp3 file the effect of the sounds keeps playing too late. So I discovered that when you save a audio file to mp3 format there is automatically with any sound editor an insert of 1/2 to 1 second of silence. So i read on the web that this does not happen when you save it to .wav formatBut when saving it to wav format i don't hear the sound in flash anymore, only when i save the wav file, with a compression of MPG,but then there is also silence added automatically. What compression technique you should use when saving it to wav format?

I have some input text fields (by the text tool, not the component) in my form that I was wondering if they could be auto-formatted. I was looking specifically for dates & numbers. For example when the user inputs 082606 and then tabs away it would immediately update to 08/26/06, or when the user inputs 50000 it would immediately update to 50,000.

I cannot Check Syntax of AS3 (error sound, not the happy 'ding' syntax checked sound), nor does the IDE Auto Format anything, even valid code. trace("x"); does nothing (except throw the 'error in your syntax' message). There is nothing displayed in the Compiler Errors pane or in the Output pane. Document Classes fail to work and fail to fail, when they are purposely mis-coded. Class files also cannot Check Syntax or Auto Format or output anything with trace("x"). AS2 files behave normally, with all the above items working.
I had the trial version of CS5 running fine. It expired. I bought the Full Version Upgrade which worked fine. Yesterday, the as3 script environment fails to check syntax, fails to auto format and does not send any trace statements to the output window. I have removed the application & re-installed and updated, but nothing has fixed this yet. AS3 code envorinment is seriously messed up. I will update everything tonight.

I'm trying to create a flash RSS reader, mostly for fun and to learn AS3 better.It's fairly small, 150x250 px, so some of the headlines will be too long. When that happens, I want to add three period marks at the end.Example:The headline is "Big hurricane might hit Monday".I want AS3 to format this to "Big hurricane ..."How can this be done?I'm thinking about adding an eventListener that count the number of letters, but how to make it add three dots after say the 20th letter and delete the rest of the text?

I'd like to know if it's possible to format the text for a variable. Basically, I'm grabbing data (which has no formatting), placing it in an array. Then displaying it in a dynamic text field.Before putting it into the array, the only formatting I've done are line breaks. I simply want to make the first line/variable bold-faced.Here's the pertinent sections of my code:
Code:

var allStates:Array = new Array();

I'm currently trying to add an autoscrolling text box. The text that will display in the box will be variable. I want this text to then scroll left and right to display all the characters.I have added a scrollbar from the components, but i want the text to scroll by itself rather than have to drag the scrollbar manually if the text string is too long. How do i create the variable text entry?How do i make that variable text scroll?What im working on is a very simple game. After the into screen i want a box to ask for the names of two teams. The player types in the variables. The text entered is then displayed in the respective text boxes, IF the text is too long to all fit in the box i want it to autoscroll, if it fits then no scrolling is necessary.
