Flash :: Cannot Access Stage Properties From A Method?
May 12, 2011
I have an object on my stage, called obj.I also have a class called "Physics" which contains a bunch of methods for physics, such as inertia, gravity, and bouncing off walls. In order to do some of these,I need access to the stage.stageWidth and stageHeight properties.My code is as follows:
public function wallBounce(obj)
{
this.stageRef = stageRef[code]...
This is supposed to check if the object's x value is greater than the stageWidth or less than 0. When I run this code it says:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
I am a semi-newbie programmer who is completely self-taught and have no clue what is causing this. I spent a bit googling it, and I think it has something to do with scopes,.

If I have a swf that's being loaded into other peoples' swfs (which I have no control over) is there any way I can get properties from the stage (such as height, width, fullScreenHeight, etc.) or does this have to be exposed by the loading swf?

I have a getter within a class which is used to make my property skin:DisplayObject read-only. This class also has a property body:AvBody which is used to define the x y width height etc of the object, which in turn positions the skin.
What I want to do is disable access to the properties x and y on skin unless accessed from within the internal namespace (where AvBody is also located) Is this possible?
Note: I can't make skin any type other than DisplayObject (I can't even make skin a class that extends DisplayObject because it creates issues with library symbols).

I am using flash CS3 with ActionScript 3.0. Suppose, I created a button component and a Combo-box component. Hence, SWF file consists of a Button and a Combo-box component. Now, my requirement is, How to access the instances and properties of these components(Button and Combo-box), so that I can create HTML webpages depending upon the Combo-box selection and the Button click events occurred on flash components? Here, we need to pass/send the flash components' instances to HTML. How can we do it? All I want is to access the flash components in HTML.

Given this:public namespace foo;foo var bar:String = "baz";We can access the property "bar" like so:[code]It gives me the following error: ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property foo::bar not found on MyClass and there is no default value.On further inspection of the foo namespace I can see (in the debugger) that the URI is in the format {package}:{type}/{name}. If I try to replicate this by doing the following:[code]Does anyone know if it is possible to get access to namespaced members like this? I don't have compile time access to the namespace, but I can look up it's uri (and prefix) dynamically at run time.

I will be choosing which mask to use based on users selection of puzzle piece.When I try to use traingular mask by adding puzzle.gotoAndStop(2) the swf just flickers. Thought the holder_mc and mask_mc are exactly of same dimension one comes below lower than other though I have not altered the position of the clips within a puzzle piece.If you want to take a look at my fla here it is https:[url]....How to go to a specific frame 2. Why is position of two clips inside the piece changing

I have hit a brick wall after trying almost every example I have come accross.In a nutshell I have a Flex parent which is embedding a Flash SWF file which has a Method which needs to be accessed from Flex.[code]I have tried strong typing the SWFLoader as a MovieClip to gain control of it but have had no luck.[code]Essentially all I need to do is reset/reload the Flash SWF when the mx:State changes.

I have made a very simple swf in which I have a MovieClip which I have rotated on the stage. When I try to access this rotationX and rotationY properties of this clip using the constructor of the class assigned to this MovieClip they are coming back as 0 even though they shouldn't be. If I put an on rollover event of the MovieClip and trace out these properties here I get the correct values.
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[Code].....
I also get the correct values when I read the values from the stage timeline.
trace ("TEST "+testMC.rotationX+" "+testMC.rotationY); //returns correct value
Is there a specific event I need to be waiting for which will tell me when the 3d properties are available via ActionScript?

So I have a movie clip associated with an external class in the linkage dialog. I put that movie clip on the stage. I have another external class that contains some code (not for the movie clip but for the stage). When I access the custom properties of the class in the actual flash file (not the external code) everything works fine.For example.myMovieClip.explodeTheCode = true;works in the main movie. However, it doesn't work in the external flash file when I have a reference to that movie clip.myRefToCustomMovieclip.explodeTheCode = true fails!It throws an error. In java, I'd just import the custom class the movie clip is linked to and then I can call all the extra custom methods on the movie clip in the external class I want. However, this does nothing. I still can't access any properties.So my question is, how do I access the custom features of a movie clip (that is linked to a custom class) from an external code file. It works in the movie, but not in the external source code.

Most examples of BindingUtils shows how to bind a property (either a public variable or a getter/setter) of an object at runtime.
But how do I go about to bind a property, such as "top" of a component, when it's only accessible via the setStyle("top", value); at runtime?
Should I just create a custom pair of getters/setters to affect the style properties of the UIComponent in question? Seems a bit unnecessary.

I am supposed to be doing a project for an animation class of mine. Our professor wants the following- He wants us to create an animated movie clip on the main time-line. Then on a separate layer we can have 2 buttons with some code. One button will stop the animation from playing and the other will get it to play. I have created my animation on one layer and buttons on another layer. Then I have a 3rd layer named actions for my action script. I made sure to give instance names to all my objects. My problem is I go to test movie and I get the following errors for each button I press.

I've got on main timeline (on frame 10) buttons, when I click one of them it goes to its currentLabel"". On curerntLabel at frame20 "racerButton" where I've got some tweening. At currentLabel "boardButton" at frame30 I load external swf. The problem I've got is when I press any button everything works fine. But when I first press button "boardButton" at frame30 the ext.swf shows up fine, but when next I click the button "racerButton" at frame20 the tweening doesn't work there and it gives me error
