Below is a MXML code built from Flash Builder 4.5 with AIR SDK 3.0. Using Starling framework to create 2D animation and wonder how do I call a addText function without create a new instance of Game?
main.mxml is a main application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" [code].....
I downloaded a statistics package with files like basicStatistics.as. Inside the file it looks something like:
Code:
package statistics{
import statistics.utils.MathUtil;
public class BasicStatistics {
public static function getAverage(_numberArray:Array, _decimals:int = -1):Number{
etc...
How do I call the function getAverage from my main .as file. I have a project called statistics.fla. In the same directory are the statistics packages files and folder directories. My main as3 file is main.as which is in the same directory as the .fla file. I tried using import statistics but it didn't work. It gives an error. I tried using statistics.getAverage but that doesn't work either.
I am working on AS3 and I have a created a button class which have an off state and on state. I did the class and it works fine, but i need a little fine tuning. Right now I am polling the button state from the root(main timeline) by checking a boolean property in the button class. I feel it is quite inefficient to check the button state on every enterFrame event of the main timeline. Rather I would prefer the button to tell the root time line by invoking a function written in the root, whenever a state change occurs. t should be cleaner , right?? But when I try to access a function in the root which goes like this

I'm running into this weird thing with ASDoc. It will only document one package function per package.For example.I have these two functions:
gs.util.printf
gs.util.ftrace
In these files:
gs/util/printf.as
gs/util/ftrace.as
The only function that get's documented in ASDocs is "printf". But I know it can do more than one. As an example, in the livedocs [URL] There are more than one functions documented.
After I saw the methods in flash.utils package, I decided to make a try:
// inside file Test.as
package com.tests
{

I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
When I use the classpaths to my packages and use a empty package name it works..
classpath: .comcc
.fla
Code:
var scene:Mainclass = new Mainclass(this);
addChild(scene);
Mainclass
Code:
package{
// imports
public class Mainclass extends Sprite{
// vars
public function Mainclass(scope){
[Code] .....
I tried to put a classpath to reflect my /fla location, still no success.
I'm dynamically adding to the stage a series of mc from a MovieClip class contained in the library(instance.name: "btn_1", btn_2", etc..) and trying to call them from a method within my Main.as class. What's the best way to do this. I can't seem to reach these dynamically created MCs.

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:

I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.
I have an enterFrame action that I use on a graphic:

Because I want to use the above code more than a few times, I tried to make it a function.
[Code]....
But for some reason the function call does not work when I call it via an action on a graphic where initially the code worked when it was explicitly written and not called as a function.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fadeOut();
}
why this is not working.I have an application with a new class I just created. The class loads, but will not call it's own internal function.

I'm trying to call a function from a AS3 container which should call old AS2 SWF that cannot be edited bacause we are talking about 1000 swf files, does exist some way to call a function inside the AS2 SWF from the AS3 container?

I'm trying to pass a variable through a function, but I'm getting it's value 0. Here's my code:
thumbLoader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goToCategory);
function goToCategory(e:MouseEvent) {
trace(c);[code]....
this trace gives me value of 0. Normally I would do goToCategory(c) and inside that category I would get it's value, but in this case I'm calling this function with an event, how can that be done?
var c is declared globally, so I'm using it above this code in different place... is there smth like global $c like in PHP.. or there's some other way to do it?!
Please i am looking for a way to call a function defined in a different frame in ActionScript 2.0. The details are as follows[code]...
For some reason, the code on frame 2 is working by itself but selecting an index from the list from another frame is not working. In other words, i am not able to call successfully selectVideo() from frame 1 while it is defined in frame 2.
The objective of the program, as implied, is referring to a certain video from the list from a different frame. The whole code is working without errors just I'm not able to select a video from the list and play it if i was initially in a different previous frame.
I've got different functions in actionscript 3, one function generates random numbers each time there's a button click. But with another button I want to call the random number which is generated at that moment. I have to call the random number from another function then, but these are two different functions so it just considers it as an undefined property.
[Code]...
But I can't call randomnummer1 because it's inside another function. So I get the property undefined error.
