View 17 RepliesWhen using Loader class to load display objects (bitmaps, SWFs...) from remote URLs, is there any way for them to be instantiated (referenced as we know, by Loader::content property) as some user specified valid subclass? For example if I had a class that extended a Bitmap, is there any way for the loaded object to be of this class?

View 2 RepliesIs there any way to display flash objects which are outside the display area when flash is embeded in HTML
The reason i ask is my current project has a rotating + enlarging effect which is largely dynamic so sometimes an object may clip the edge of the stage areathis looks messy but i dont want to increase the stage area to cover the largest possible area any object could enter because most of the time the objects are at the center and small so i would end up with a lot of white space
I have a list containing display objects from throughout the application (insertion order). I want to process the list either top-down (parent, child) or bottom up (child, parent). The only requirement is that either a parent is processed before any child or vice versa a child before its parent. What is a good approach? This question is not about sorting a list. It's about retrieving the depth of a particular display object.
Example
Display list:
A (root)
B1
C1
C2
D1
B2
......
My list:
list = [E1, F4, A, B2, B1, C3, ..., N9, N8]
Bottom-up:
N9, N8, F4, E1, C3, B2, B1, A
Top-down:
A, B2, B1, C3, E1, F4, N9, N8
Does not matter if N9 before N8 or N8 before N9. Important is that any N is before M (first run) or any M before its children N* (second run).
Is there any way to test if a display object has been added to the display list?
View 9 Repliescan I resize a display object (container) without its contents (children) are resized?
For example, in the following code when I resize the green square, red is also resized. I wanted to resize only the green.

sprite.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000);

Can you make one Bitmap Object (I'm using an external jpg) or something similar, and then display it many times simultaneously without creating a separate object each time?
Also, would they be easily removed or hidden?
I've got a little checkmark jpg graphic loaded here, but I'm not sure how to go about using it in many places at once.. I can only display it in the one place at any one time...
I'm thinking there might be a way to load the picture once, then use its bitmapData elsewhere in new display objects somehow, without needing to reload the image over and over?
I have to make time so the hours to be starting with 0 for the numbers less then 10 for example 9:30 to be 09:30 and in my code it works for the minutes but not for the hours. I have written the following code here:

myDate = new Date ()
hours = Number(myDate.getHours())
minutes = Number(myDate.getMinutes())
seconds = Number(myDate.getSeconds())

It's my understanding that a display object cannot be in the display list more that once.So if I add something to the stage shouldn't a second addition of the same object replace the first? for instance:

there should now only be one "myDisplayObject" on the stage.
Hi guys I get this coercion error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Shape@41754601 to flash.display.
When I create an instance of a MovieClip from my library:
var childmc:ChipEasy = new ChipEasy(); Canvas.Map.Tiles.addChild(childmc);
When I try to access all the children like: for (var i:int=0; i<Canvas.Map.Tiles.numChildren-1; i++){
var mc:MovieClip = Canvas.Map.Tiles.getChildAt(i);
}

If I create a rectangle with 100px width and 100px height and then rotate it, the size of the element's "box" will have increased.With 45 rotation, the size becomes about 143x143 (from 100x100).Doing sometimes like cos(angleRad) * currentWidth seems to work for 45 rotation, but for other bigger angles it doesn't.At the moment I am doing this:
var currentRotation = object.rotation;
object.rotation = 0;
var normalizedWidth = object.width;

## [Tweener] Error: [object Loader] raised an error while executing the 'onComplete'handler.

i tryed to use just the loaders...not working..its just for mcs i think...
package {
public class priyan {
public var a:String = "priyan";
public var b:String = "bhagavath";
public function method():void {
trace(a);
trace(b);
The above script, i got it from one of the ActionScript 3.0 book. i just work it out in flash. But it shown error 5000: The class 'priyan' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.

how do you do this...if (you rollover instance 'imgsmall' ) then
display visible instance 'imglarge' then
rollout (instance 'imgsmall') then do not display 'imglarge'
I have a calculator which at the moment displays results for any number entered into a text field. I want it so that if the value entered into the text field is equal to or less than a certain number (y), then a message (a) appears in my dynamic text field, if the value entered is more than (y) then the calculation (b) appears in the dynamic text field. Here is how my actionscript looks at the moment:
calc_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, calcClick);
rvalue.border = false;
rvalue.restrict = "0-9";

This is the edit to my question. There is quite a bit of code here, but the problem area is below the second set of three line comments. I stuck the rest in just in case I'm completely wrong about where the problem is. With the "if" statement I can display fine in a run, but not in debug. If I get rid of the conditional it runs fine in debug, but not in a regular run. These errors only occur on the first run of the quiz. In either mode it runs fine fi I take a second quiz.

In my current project I have the following situation: A multipage PDF gets rendered by some nasty software into a flash film. My job is to display that rendered flashfilm (will be rendered as file) in my current asp.net application.
I don't know what the rendered flashfilm will look like, but I assume all flash files behave the same? Or are there differences I should know about.
What options do I have to display that flashfilm? Does ASP.net support some built-in object oriented control that allows me to display flashfilm?
