Is there a statement in AS3 that will return current class and/or scope? I'd like to use that in trace statements so that I know the exact location of a trace.
View 2 RepliesI am new to actionscript and just like some of you, I would like to start off on the right foot. After several attempts to solve this problem I am now taking a break and reaching out to those in the community. I have created a .as file named Main.as and the code inside main.as is:[code]then i created a new fla file and named it testas. I then typed Main in the Document class under properties.The code has no errors and when I attempt to test the movie, there is no output to the output panel.
View 7 RepliesI've been playing with prototype a bit and I've noticed that either it isn't as static as it should be or that some functions are protected from altering, or that in some cases the prototype actually extends a function. For example, I was trying to modifiy the global trace function to output the current time of a trace action, something like this :
Code:trace("lulu"); // output 12:48:17.286 lulu I DID achieve something close to it, but it seems that I haven't actually modified the global trace function, but rather it's "_root" counterpart,

First, when i print my movie(properties 760 x 520) it is very small on paper. How can i make it fit the paper?
Second, how can i only print the current frame or what is on the screen from flash?
I want to print the current page (web page) when user clicks on a button.

View 1 RepliesI have installed Flex Builder 3 and Flash Player 10 on my machine.
I don't know where the trace output goes because I just don't see it (I tried debug and output windows).
Also the breakpoints don't hit.
Flash is returning decimal floating point formats in evaluation results under the IEEE 754-1985 format.I looked it up and this seems to be how ActionScript 3 was designed to follow that standard which creates these results.This doesn't happen in the ActionScript 2 compiler. It only happens under ActionScript 3, paste these trace statements and compile so you can see what I mean:
Code: Select alltrace(48.48 + 0.01) // returns 48.489999999999995
trace(18.48 + 0.01) // returns 18.490000000000002
this one is ok: Code: Select alltrace(18.49 + 0.01) //returns 18.5
I need a two decimal place precision result as this is for an algorithm that I'm trying to use to round up or down by a penny so I can't simply convert it to an integer but there's no pattern that I can see so I can predict results for it either.I can't have a $18.8999999999995.
I am trying to build a AS3 only project in Flex....I have tried debug mode, but seems like it takes so long to compile....I can't use trace or check variables...Are there anyway to do debug??
View 1 RepliesIs there a bug with stage height in Flash? Every time I use that and run a trace statement, it's wrong.
View 1 RepliesFor the life of me I can't figure out how to trace out the current label in my movie's main timeline. This is in AS3. I have a button on stage that spans the timeline of the movie. It detects keypresses. I want to trace the current frame label that the play head is on.

I get "_level0" for this...and undefined for the rest. What am I doing wrong here?
I know trace() function can print information,but it must run under flex builder environment or other GUI tools environment.I want to know if there is a statement can replace of trace(),because sometimes I need print information for debug and I don't want to use flex builder too,and I only use mxmlc command to compile as file into swf file. When I click swf file,I want to get trace information. I search the google,it say C:Documents and SettingsAdministratormm.cfg can log trace information,I make following content in this file:ErrorReportingEnable=1TraceOutputFileEnable=1When I use flashplayer_10_sa_debug.exe to run this swf file,then I lookup C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorApplication DataMacromediaFlash PlayerLogsflashlog.txt,but I can't find any information in this file! Why? Where is wrong? My OS is XP.
View 2 RepliesThere's a lot of examples for ActionScript over the web using trace() to print results.I'd tryied it using Flash Builder 4, but it don't print to the console. Where can I see the output?
View 4 RepliesI was dealing with some sample code for a FMS applicaion.There is a certain code(Server Side Action Script 1) that uses a trace statement to print out a sentence.However when the program runs and executes the method,the print statement does not get printed on the'output' in FLASH.The code is as follows:
application.onAppStart = function()[code].....
I have a print function that is supposed to print the current visible view of an mc...the mc contains a map that can be zoomed in on and panned...I want to only view what the mc shows...and I had this function working before...but I have made hundreds of changes to my code, without testing the print function along the way, so I have no idea what I did that may have broken my function..

I'm building a stand alone presentation application (.exe) in Flash CS4, and want to add a print button which prints current frame. Tried to find about that everywhere on internet, but didn't quite found what I need. So when someone clicks the button, I wish to save that image in original size as bitmap or jpeg image. How can I do that?
View 2 RepliesWhen I run this code, I get to click on either the container "Big Box" or its contents "Poly". The associated trace states should fire but look at the tracer on "Poly" it fires twice. Why? [code]
View 2 Repliesi suspect the answer here is "no", but i'm wondering if it's possible to set the color of trace statements which appear in flex's console pane. ie, i have a few "levels" of log statements, and i'd like the warnings and errors to really stand out.
View 2 RepliesTrying to get a MovieClipLoader to work for me... This code is taken pretty much right from Macromedia's Help file. I get no error messages (yay), but I also get no trace statement (boo) or loaded clip (boo2). There *is* a clip named audioplayer.swf in the same directory as my file.

I am having a problem with the if statement in my timer function, the trace statement within in it is not working, eventually I wanted to use this if statement further but need to make sure it is working first.
Code:
timerFunction();

function timerFunction() {
trace("hey");//this trace works
var myTimer:Timer=new Timer(1000,15);

View 3 Repliesdoes anybody maybe know how to track/trace the current position of a sound file while it is playing?So that it is updated every frame or second?I figured something with trace(sound.position) onEnterFrame, but didn't succeed in realizing this yet.
View 1 RepliesI have setup some nav buttons on my website. When I click one of the buttons, I want the current page to fade out, and I don't want the other page fading in until the first one is gone. This means I need a statement to go along with each button so that they all get rid of the current page, and don't fade in their respective pages until the first one is gone. Here is my current code:
buttons_mc.about_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CL ICK,disappear);
buttons_mc.about_mc.buttonMode = true;
buttons_mc.about_mc.useHandCursor = true;[code]...
So, what do I need in order for this to all function correctly, once "home_mc" has reached its final frame?
I am making a jigzaw and when all the pieces are put in the right place, another movie clip will be played.All pieces are buttons placed in different movieclips. The movieclips are then placed in scene 1.
In frame 1, I've written
_global.var1=0;
In frame 2, I've put movieclip1, and in movieclip1 I've placed button1, with the following actionscript:
on (press) {
startDrag ("_root.movieclip1");
}[code]..........
However, when the piece is in the right place, and the if-statement has been activated, _global.var1 is still 0 when I trace it in frame2.
I want a way to pass a string statement from one base class to an other. The two classes are CLICK and READ.What's an easy way to do this? I haven't worked in classes that often to know some of the simple tricks.

I'm making the transition from AS2 to AS3 and have some rollover and rollout code below.

I am trying to things efficiently and put as little code as possible on the timeline.
I have a document class loading and working at runtime.
It creates a button that takes me to a different frame on the timeline.
I have a movie clip there. I put a trace in the constructor of the class of that movie clip but it will not show the trace comment in the output window-its not working. There are no errors.
I also tried instantiating the same movie clip from the document class-which worked-but the trace in it's class's constructor still does not output.
