Break Out Of An Entire Function?
Jul 3, 2009
I've got a for loop running in a function. I want to break out of the entire function if a condition is met in the for loop, and obviously carry on within the function if not. I've read a little about using labels, but I'm new to actionscript and most of it's going completely over my head. Here's my code.

I would like to break a for-loop. It should be easy with "break;", but there is a slight complication to the code - the for-loop contains a function from within which I want to be able to break the loop. Here is a codesnippet:

So, somehow, I want to break the for-loop from within the onLoad-function. Is that possible with some other code (this ofcourse doesnt work)?

I set a function for
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
code;
}
but later I want this onEnterFrame to stop functioning to conserve on processor resources. setInterval isn't too good of an option from the way I have things set up, so right now I just set it to a new function with a trace action which overwrites the old one.Is there a command to simply just clear or break the function from executing?

I saw a post that touched on this, but I thought it deserved a thread of its own for explicit verification. It seemed that some of the resident geniuses here had given the thumbs-up to passing your whole doc or app class to a function. Please correct me if I'm wrong, as this sounds convenient but I assumed it would cause heart attacks and CPU meltdowns.
EXAMPLE: Say I have an app class that controls my entire game (or slideshow), and it has an ENTER_FRAME scrolling function that's 50 lines long with tons of conditionals so I want to take it out and make it an external file. I pop it into a new .as file but now all my variables are out of scope. I could pass them each individually, but there are so many it's impractical. So my question is: good or bad practice to pass the entire class?

I'm trying to break a movieclip into pixels and then move each pixel independently, but am having a hard time wrapping my brain around the code.
Right now I have a MC on the stage with an image in it. I'm able to go through each pixel, copy them one at a time then add a tween like this:
Code:
function copyPixels() {
var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(300, 400, 1, 1);
var bytes:ByteArray = bmd1.getPixels(rect);
var bmd3:BitmapData = new BitmapData(1,1, true, 0xFF000000);
[Code]...
But that doesn't really give the effect I want. I want the whole image visible then have one pixel at a time fly off. How do I do this? Do I copy the entire image to a ByteArray then address each element in the array?

I'm trying to take a string and break it into two parts. It's a url to a video on a RTMP server.So I've got to take this:
[URL] person17/1031617_person_generic_700kbps (note the removal of the ".flv" which is necessary as well).Right now I'm doing this, which seems overly complicated:
Code:
videoURL="rtmpe://emediadev.mysite.com/ffw/person17/1031617_person_generic_700kbps.flv";
videoURL=videoURL.substr(0,videoURL.length-4); //remove ".flv"
var urlArray:Array=videoURL.split("/");

i'm using this code i got on-line, the text is being outputted through a dynamic text box, which is multi line enabled and html. Yet I just can't seem to get a single line break, i can get a double by doing a normal line break in notepad. But i need a single. And <br> doesn't seem to work.

myLoadVars_lv = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars_lv.onLoad = function(success) {

I have content with line break. When I break the text matter it shows following error. Is there any technique so that I could use line break content matter.
Syntax error:A string literal must be terminated before the line break.
Code :
output:TextField:TextField=new TextField();
addChild(output);
outputText.text("Number of characters including
line breaks and spaces so far: ");

EDIT2: Ok Both problems solved since I just found out how to randomize the array It took me three days to solve these problems lol At the third day I posted here but I got with the solutions by myself EDIT: lol ok Silly me.. I've just found out how to do that... Just adding a n in the answer texts solves this issue... I feel silly now =P ... However, I got another doubt, since I need to randomize the questions... Let's say I'd need 20 questions in total (with its respective answers). From those, I only need 10 to show... Ok, no problem here. The thing is, from those 20 possible questions, I need any 10 to appear randomly. I still can't found out how to randomize the items inside an array.

Why would we use a break in the last condition? Wouldn't it already get out of the condition at the last one possible? For example:
ActionScript Code:
var n:int = 3;
switch (n) {
[Code].....
I've seen numerous examples using a break in the last condition in several languages (namely AS, JS and PHP among the ones I remember) and always thought why, but couldn't find an answer. I don't see any difference between using it and not using it, although I might be missing something.

browsing [URL]... I would like to implement a version of this 3-D rotating menu with several changes. I would like to change the orientation to vertical and once one of the numbered instances has been triggered I would like the instance to revert to its inactive state. I am a novice to actionscript but in this case I find the code even more confusing. I cannot see an instance on the stage that would trigger the events and the math functions of actionscript is still very much a dark art to me.

Was wondering if there is a way to break up an image, or MC, into multiple MC's?
Imagine a picture of yourself. You want to break it up into 40 MC's like a puzzle, but don't want to goto photoshop or gimp to cut out 40 pieces. Is there a way to do it in code?
