ActionScript 2.0 :: [FMX] Sequence Of Functions?
Apr 15, 2004I'm making a menu. It consist of three mc's (btn1, btn2 and btn3) and two squares The two squares rescale horizontal in different directions depending on the button that is presses. When the squares come to an hold there is a little gap between them underneath the button that was presses and the button is going 20 pixels down into that gap. Below is the code I have used:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.yPos = function(y){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._y += (y - this._y)/3;
[code]....
And that is where I have problems. Point one when I don't know how to integrate a if (if used) in the button event, so everything is going to move at the same time(btn2 already moves before the squares are in place and the squares are already moving before btn1 is back up again) and secondly the way I have it now btn1 is indeed moving back up again, but after that its up it also going back down again.

Flex :: Functions Called In Incorrect Sequence Or Earlier Call Was Unsuccessful
Mar 8, 2012in my application, I did some trace statements of a file For example if(oldFile.parent.toString()!=file.parent.toString()) There are some other file print statements , and it seems to encounter this error stated below. But the error does not appear every time. For example i ran my application for 20 times, it will encounter this error once.

Flex :: Dealing With Namespaces In E4X
Dec 14, 2011I'm trying to get data from a namespaced xml file in a flex app. There is a root namespace (xmlns="blah") and another namespace (xmlns:i="blah"), and I'm able to access most tags using the following:
var ns:Namespace = doc.namespace();
var result:XMLList = doc.ns::element;
However, there are several tags that are subject to change in the application, and i'd like to not hardcode them, possibly using the elements method:
var result:XMLList = doc.elements(configuredField);
Is there a way to get elements with namespaces using the elements method, or a similar way to get XML elements in flex using a parameter?

Dec 7, 2009I'm making a small memory game that is XML driven (users can upload images into the game). I've come to the point where I need to check if the user has filled out certain nodes or not, and if so; check that the input is valid - int when int is expected and whatnot.
What are the ways to check this, and which is best? So far I've only tried checking if a node is == "" or not, but I imagine there must be better ways. I will include lots of switches for the user which should all be optional. This calls for a neat way to validate it.

Apr 23, 2009I have an app that has a fullscreen button that goes into fullscreen NO_SCALE. Keeps everything looking sharp. However, all of my movieclip positions aren't correct. To fix this, I need to use:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, stageResize);
Then, in my stageResize function, I duplicate all my movieclips' x and y and (if necessary) widths. This seems wrong and cumbersome.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about. Full Screen - Doesn't Work Clicking on fullscreen brings you to fullscreen but the mc positions stay put. Here's the code for this one:
Code:
var btn_fullScreen:btnFullScreen = new btnFullScreen();
var btn_normalScreen:btnNormalScreen = new btnNormalScreen();
var bar_bg:barbg = new barbg();

ActionScript 2.0 :: Everything Dealing With SharedObjects In The First Frame ?
Jul 1, 2009Everything dealing with sharedObjects in the first frame is this:
[AS]

Going to the second frame from the first frame, the data is perfect. Going back to the first frame from the second, I'll trace the data many times throughout the code without an onEnterFrame, and it'll tell me that the Array is good...But when I trace the onEnterFrame, it shows the Array is [undefined, undefined, ...] like..undefined 17 times.
Professional :: Dealing With Layers From Duplicated Scenes
Jul 28, 2011I'm using Flash CS5.5. I had some unfinished work on flash 8 and I'm running actionScript 2.0 In one of my scenes I had come up with a good button set up I wanted to use in all of my scenes. So I duplicated the scene, and proceeded to re-name my layers on the new scene according to the new content in the form of bitmaps. Well, on the output I got warnings such as: "duplicated label on layers". My SWF is still showing normally but I don't know what to do with the warnings. Is there something I should have done other than double clicking directly on the old labels on the layers and chaging their name?
View 1 RepliesPNG File Validation - Dealing With Untrusted Images?
Mar 9, 2010I have a Flash web app which displays user submitted PNG files. Files are uploaded to the server via some API prior to being displayed. I'd like to make sure no "bad" files are served to Flash, where "bad" is entirely unspecific. Is there a way to validate PNG files against the PNG specs (this would catch corrupted files)? Or any best pratice on dealing with untrusted image files? I only need to handle PNG, so JPG, GIF etc. support is necessary. Language mostly does not matter, though I'd prefer Python solutions. This is on a Unix webserver.

2. We increase a bit the width of container, so it disappears.

Actionscript 3 :: Dealing With Display Objects On The Stage?
Oct 3, 2011I think there are 2 different practices with dealing with display object on the stage.You draw all the objects on the stage and then manipulate the "visible" attribute to show or hide them.You use addChild and removeChild to manipulate the visiblity.How do you think what is the best method for this?
View 3 RepliesFlash - Dealing With A Transparent Png File Symbol?
Oct 5, 2011In my project, there is a frame(png files) placed on the top of all symbols. After that, I apply mouse click event to the symbols that place underneath the frame symbol, but when I run the the game, I cannot click to the below symbols but only the frame symbol, although the frame is transparent.
The problem is, although the png picture has some transparent area, the mouse click cannot pass through it. Is there solution? Is there anyway I can disable a symbol from being clicked and mouse click event can recognize the symbol placed under it?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Dealing With Options In A Program Along All The Scripts?
Mar 19, 2007How do professional programmers deal with preferences for their application?when there are options to be chosen in an application, does the program is full of "if" to detect what option has been chosen?Let's say that there is a call to 30 functions in the program.But the user has got to choose between an option A or B that would modify the way those 30 functions work.Would you have to write 60 functions and then place an "if" condition each time to go to the needed one...
Or would it be possible to write at run time (after the program has read the preferences) the corresponding functions? So that it wouldn't be necessary to check conditions each time?The goal being to gain total speed in critical functions preventing their run to be slowed down by condition requests.

Professional :: Dealing With Loop To Part Of Time Line

I've seen online sections dealing with a goto command, but my attempts to alter the code haven't worked correctly
View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Masks Dont Function When Dealing With 3d (properties)?
Dec 29, 2010I can find in the Adobe's help that masks dont function when dealing with 3d (properties). In this case I stuck on big obstacle in my project,where I wanted to deal with masks, and .z property. I wanted to tween mainMovieClip via TweenLite to make it going away from view.mainMovieClip has mask inside it ( added by the code), and certainly after tween is done mask is unaplied anymore, what is more disgusting functionality for eventListeners (clicks) attached to movieClips behind the mask gone far away. So in the end mask does not work, and everything behind it doesnt too..I need some specialist if my approach to the problem could be somehow a solution. I tried by it doesnt seem to work:I thought that if before tween I would disable the mask, by just setting
mainMovieClip.someMaskHolderMc.mask = null;
and then after tween is done, I could re-set it:
mainMovieClip.someMaskHolderMc.mask = someMasker;
but I end with nothing though, apart of that after tweening I can click once of the areas I had eventListeners before the tween, and then
all functionality disappear. Masks do not work too .
ActionScript 3.0 :: Way Of Dealing With 'implicit Coercion' Of Array To Sprite?
Apr 18, 2011With continued help from this forum I am getting closer to having a working program. I look forward to being able to help others like myself once I finish learning the AS3 ropes.I have created a 12 x 9 random number grid that populates each cell with a corresponding image based on each cell's numeric value. I have also created a shuffle button that randomizes the numbers in the grid. The problem I am running into is getting my button-click event to clear the current images off the grid in order to assign new ones (i.e. deleting the display stack objects in order to place news ones in the same locations).My question is this: what is the best way to handle an implicit coercion from an array to a sprite? I have pasted my entire code below so that you can see how the functions are supposed to work together. My trouble apparently lies with not being able to use an array value with a sprite (the sprite represents the actual arrangement of the grid on the display stack while the array starts out as a number than gets assigned an image which should be passed to the sprite).

ActionScript 3.0 :: ''if" Statements When Dealing With A Stream Of Sensor Data?
Apr 17, 2010After a not inconsiderable effort I've managed to get a touch sensor attached to a microprocessor talking to flash. It gives a constant analog input giving a value between 0 and around 300. When it reads 0, the sensor is being pushed hard enough, and my aim is to get an object to appear on the screen every time the sensor is pressed so that it reads 0.[code]Which works, when the sensor reads 0 it traces "zero", except it does it every time it reads the sensor, so there's huge great list of "zero"s generated.What i want is for it to trace "zero" only the first time it detects a zero, and not do it again until the value rises past zero and back down again.Is there a conditional way to do this? Something like "If previous value was greater than zero and this value is equal to zero, trace zero. if not, do nothing"?
View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Parsing A Large CSV File, Dealing With Commas And Quotes
Oct 12, 2010I need to load in a large CSV file (>1MB) and parse it. Generally this is quite easy to do by splitting first on linebreaks and then commas. The problem is though that some entries contain Strings that include their own commas. When this spreadsheet is converted to CSV, the lines containing commas are wrapped in quotes.
I've written a parser that first escapes all the commas in these strings, then splits it on linebreaks and then commas, and then unescapes the values again.
This is quite a slow process for such a long string, as I need to iterate through the whole string. Does anyone know a faster or more optimised method of dealing with this?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Dealing With Parents / Children And Setting Things To Null
Jul 12, 2010Seeing as I don't have too much formal education Flash/OOP in general, this is just one of those thing I can't seem to quite deal with gracefully. All I'm trying to do is to be able to load/reset my an instance of my game's main class (not the first class that gets pulled up by Flash, but the one that actually has games logic in it), which of course extends MovieClip. It took me a while before I could even make an instance in it, because it would silently crashed when I would try to do so, and what didn't help was that the output window stopped working, and I had to completely reinstall flash. As far as I remember I simply fixed it by taking out the "stage." from any of the lines of codes that had it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Import Vs Include - Basic Functions To Be In BasicFunctions.as And The Make A Library For More Specific Functions
Jun 6, 2010I've got a project thats getting a bit big, so Im taking the actionscript out into separate as files. I want all the basic functions to be in BasicFunctions.as and the make a library for more specific functions. I find that a lot of people use the import statement but I cant get that to work with a simple Hello World trace, yet the include statement works fine (see attached). I understand that import/include work differently, but which is the better method? If import, then is that heavier to work with. Any rate, what's the best way to organise code when it gets to the 1000+ lines?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mimicing The Until Functions - Load Of Global Functions In One File?
Nov 4, 2009I'm trying to find a way to have global functions in my as project, similar to how flash does with stuff like the util functions (describeType()...), where you can just call the function wherever you need it. For example:
[Code]...
So when I call Test(), it prints out "hello world" fine. My problem comes in that I can't change the name of the Test function, and I can't add any other functions without compiler errors. Is it possible to have a load of global functions in one file, or do I have to split them up into separate files like in the example? Also, I know that I can make a Global class and call static functions like Code: Global.doSomething() but I'd like to know if there's a way to do it as flash does it (describeType(), getDefinitionByName(), etc), or rather, how does flash do it?

the only problem is that the button doesn't work onRelease. i think that it is because there are too many functions there, but at the same time,
