Using Flash 8, and ActionScript 2, what is the max value that an _x property on a MovieClip can be? For instance, is it okay to position a movieclip at _x = 60000?

View 2 RepliesI'm having a little difficulty getting to grips with the getBounds() Movie Clip function. I assumed the getbounds() method simply got the boundary coordinates for the movie Clip, that one could use to draw a rectangle. This is what I'm trying to do;I'm trying to get a movie clips coordinate bounds, and use the min and max values of x and y to draw rectangle around the object. Simple right? But in my case, I'm getting some unexpected results. I wonder does ther registration point of the object determine the coordinate values? Also are the coordinate values local to the clip instance or global to the stage?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to build an MXML application with Flash Builder 4.5, and I am integrating an API that requires the root of a display object to be a MovieClip. Personally I think this is bad design but I have to go with it. The root object always seems to end up as the stage, because of course I have to add the object to the stage for it to be added to the display list. Is there some way that I can either change the stage type in an MXML application to a MovieClip or is there some way to force a MovieClip wrapper to become the root of a display object?

I Have the drag and drop working where you drag a text movieclip onto a picture of an object movieclip but having some problems. I know its something to do with the hitTest function but when i drop the word "cow" onto the picture of a dog it actually says this is correct by displaying the word cow above the picture of the dog when instead it shouldnt allow me to drop the text onto the picture which doesnt match.
Basically i need to know how to seperate the drag hitTest function for the DogPic/DogText so that it has its own function to detect a hit. At the moment you can see in the below code I have 1 hittest fucntion detecting both collisions when they need seperate functions I tried making a seperate function for each but it didnt work

But when running the movie, only the first 600 vertical pixels (approximately) are clickable! Does flash have a limitation of which I am not aware that would cause this? There isn't any masking going on, so I'm not sure why only part of the movieClip would be clickable.
It seem that the textFormat.size property has a maximum - attempting to set it to something like 160 doesn't work correctly..

View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if there is a limit as to how may if else you can put in a function. I have a form that never seems to fire the last if else on the first load. It will work once I've run through the form, and all of the times after that, but never on the first try. In other words, when I test the form for the first time, if # 5 never kicks in. But after the form has sent, I can run the form again and if # 5 will work like I want it to. I did add .tabIndex to the form because it wouldn't originally tab the way I wanted it to and I wondered if this might be part of the problem. I also tried moving the if else statements around, but that didn't seem to make any difference. Does it only read 4 if's at a time?

View 1 RepliesI have an older flash application, it uses actionscript 2. Its logic is heavily tied to the frame rate (using onEnterFrame lots of times). I need to accelerate its calculations.
The maxmimum frame rate Flash Professional lets me specify for it is 120. Is there any way to make this higher? I don't necessarily have to change the fla or the swf, being able to play it faster locally would be sufficient, if the flash player can be tweaked to accomplish that.
