I am working on a class for building drop down buttons dynamically. Here is excerpt one of my code (located in the Class constructor):
_button.onRollOver = function()
{
this.gotoAndStop("over");
[code]....
If I have three classes:
public class Example {
public function Example () {
}[code]............
You can see that the two last classes extend the first one, and both have the 'variable' property. In case that I have an instance of Example and I am sure it is also an ExtendedExample OR AnotherExtendedExample instance, is there some way to access the 'variable' property? Something like
function functionThatReceivesAnExtendedExample (ex:Example):void {
if(some condition that I may need) {
ex.func()
I have a class Debug with a function called trace inside it which puts a TextField on the stage and outputs the text. Now I am trying to get the Debug.trace() function to do a "normal" debug trace as well from within side itself. of course this causes a recursive loop. I am trying to figure out how I can access the top level separately. I tried using namespaces such as AS3::trace but to no luck.
I know a solution is to rename my function to stop the conflict, but I would like that to be a last resort. It is being used in quite alot of places throughout my entire code so replacing it everywhere is going to be a ballache.
My first experience is build an aquarium with a lot of fish swimming, and they can be clicked. When one of them is clicked we should receive a trace message saying ("I�m a Fish!"). To do this, I thought that the best way will be:
1- create a document class, named Main.as
2- create a base class, named Clicked.as
2- create a movie clip with a fish.
3- export the movieclip to actionscript. In the mc properties set Class as "fish" and Base Class as "Clicked".
i have a game that i want to put load screen on, which i created a separate class for. first the main class is initialized and in the constructor function, it does an addChild(loadScreen) which places an instance of the loadScreen MC on the stage. within the loadScreen is a "Play Button" that when a user presses this button i want it to continue startGame in the Main class. the way i tried it was Main.startGame from the loadScreen class, but that obviously does not work. is it possible to call a function from a different class.i have three files:
Main.fla
Main.as
loadScreen.as
the Main.as file:
Code:
package
{
import flash.text.*;
import flash.display.*;

I am trying to access another class function. I have 2 Classes and my main menu features are in my Main Class and I want to call that function from my Level ClassWhat is a good idea to approach this, some how I need to import it in a way but I don't know how I could do that.
View 2 RepliesI have a AS3 MP3 player. The player class is called Mp3PlayerFrontEnd and controls the play and pause buttons. The playlist class is called PlaylistBoxItem and loads the track names into a playlist from XML. On each line of the playlist is a download button. When the download button is pressed, I want the player to pause. I thought I could just _player.pause(); from the playlist class but it doesnt work.
So my question is... How do I access the function in the MP3 player class from the playlist class?
"Normally you will just have to get access to the Mp3Player instance in PlaylistListboxItem class and call pause() on it in download function. I guess the easiest way to achieve this is to create a public static instance of a holder class that could be used access the player from wherever in code."
I'm using actionscript 3.
How will i be able to access a function that is inside a class?
I mean, i would like to call those functions in my main.fla.

I do not know how to make a public static instance or where to put it. Attached is the 2 AS files. I can send you the zipped source of the whole player in a PM if anyone needs. On line 25 of Mp3PlayerFrontEnd you will see the public class where the player is defined.On line 94 of PlayllistListboxItem you will see the function to download the file. It is from there I want to pause the player.

1119: Access of possibly undefined property mc through a reference with static type Class.
After doing nothing with AS for quite a while (2007) I started to code a little project in actionscript 3.0. An extensive Java course cleared up a lot on OO programming, but probably gave me some false expectations too.I'm trying to program a game in which a human and computer player compete. The computer player needs to do the same actions as the human one.So for every onClick for the human player has on a screen element, a computer player class needs the same functionality. Now for some reason the clickHandler won't let me call the setter function set selected function (see the lines in red).

View 2 RepliesTried to access a function in the document class by simply calling it. For exampe, the code in my frame is:
Code: Select allinitButtons();
And in my document class I have the function:
Code:
Select allprivate function initButtons():void{
trace('anything');
}
But it gives me an error. Even tried to change private to public the same.
I have a simple quesiton about class, method and functions inside a method and class properties. I created a new class form my custom component.. But upon developing it I found out that you can not access a property inside the function which is also inside a method..
Example
Code:
class myClass{
private var myProperty:Number = 1; //default is 1
//constructor
public function myClass(){
}//Method
[Code] .....
What I want to do is to access the property inside the method.. I also have a work-around still i cannot point a certain variable to a property of my class inside the method's function..
I have a slideshow made up of about 21 photos and each one is on a different layer and each has a fade in and out transition applied to them. I want to be able to stop the slideshow when a rollover occurs. I've tried various types of code and none of them get close.
View 0 RepliesHow do I do a onRollOver detect without using the onRollOver function? I have a movieclip and when it's rolled over I have it zooming using the AS2 tween function. In that movieclip there's a form with fields, and if I use the onRollOver function on the movieclip to zoom, the whole movieclip becomes a button thus preventing any input into the form fields. Is there an alternative I can use? I tried using hitTest, but it keeps looping itself unlike the onRollOver function that only runs once.
Heres's the fla
Heres's the swf

I have a movieClip, which in turn has a nested movieClip. I need each of these to have thier own onRollOver events, the parent movieClip is OK, but the event never fires for the nested movieClip. My code goes something like this:

I have a movieClip named MC, and it's enabled with action script, with the class name MC_Rectangle and a Stage.I override the MC_Rectangle class file in a mc_rectangle.as external file.here is the code:
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[ code].....
I have new a object in the main stage var
mc_rect:MC_Rectangle = new MC_Rectangle()
in main stage:
1. how can i access the variable "sequence" in "mc_rect"
2. how can i pass parametre from main stage to mc_rect via function setSequence(data:int)?
3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.
in asp.net, i usually use mc_rect.sequenct,mc_rect.setSequence(data), mc_rect.addSequence() to achieve my goals......btw, can function in mc_rect return out result to main stage?
I'm having an issue with a simple movieclip onRollOver event. Here's my code:
Code:
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRollOver = over;
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRollOut = out;
_root.mc_shutternav.mc_nav_8.onRelease = hit;
[code]....
However, with this setup the function hit() is called automatically every time I publish the movie. What's wrong with this? What's the difference between mc.onRelease = function; and mc.onRelease = function()?
I have a movieclip that has selectable text / scroll bar / other buttons etc - What I would like is to have an onRollOver / RollOut event to call a function on the entire movieclip, however when I do this - The entire movieclip is treated as a button and I cannot select the text nor click the scroll bar / other movieclip buttons within this movieclip. Is there a way to set the onrollover / rollout to execute a function without having the movieclip itself turn into a button / stop functioning?

What do I need to add to this to make it work.
// This is an array, a list of the buttons used. var myButtons = [this.myButton_1, this.myButton_2, this.myButton_3, this.myButton_4]; // Loops on all buttons from the first to the last one for (var i=0; i<myButtons.length; i++) { // When the mouse rolls over this menu option... reduce size just a bit. // NOTICE: I'm not taking into consideration the problem of having the hit area going down and "moving" the // mouse area and out of the button (possible rollover flicking). This is just a simple example afterall.

In the above instance how would I address the problem of flickering? I think want to apply the .onRollOver to an invisible button instead. How can this be done? Im just getting started with tweening animations outside the timeline with MCTween
I am trying to access a function in a loaded swf that has external class.. I would like to avoid having to put the function on my "Main" Doc class in the external swf and instead access the function directly from the class
This is what ive tried so far and it's a no dice:
private function startLoad(){
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("one.swf");
[Code]....
im trying to do is have a button that shows an animation (created by a duplicateMovieClip function) with onRollOver and stops the animation with onRollOut. It works when i roll over and it stops when i roll out, but then it continues in a loop up to the point where i rolled out (instead of cutting off completely as i would like). Id be extremely grateful if you could tell me where im going wrong.
View 2 RepliesHere is my quick question
for (i=1; i<=5; i++)
{
this["mcName"+i].mcArea.onRollOver = function(){
trace(this["mcName"+i].mcOther);
}
}
How can I get variable "i" to my onRollOver function? In this example, flash exporting to output panel "undefined" results.
