Flash :: Prototype Methods Not Working On TextField
Jan 26, 2011
This doesn't make any sense to my feeble brain, and I've reached my googlefu limit.
I have a bunch of prototype methods that I use to speed development up, and most of them are attached to DisplayObject or InterActiveObject. Here's an example of one such prototype:
DisplayObject.prototype.$click = function(clicked:Function, released:Function = null):void{
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function():void {
clicked();

I created a prototype function for the Array object. It's supposed to load and parse an XML file, then take all the values from the XML file and convert them to objects, which I then want to push to the array that called the function. However, I can't seem to get it to work.The function itself seems to work, but the push to the array does not. (code below)
Array.prototype.xmltoArrObj = function( path ) {
var xmlurl:String = "nav/" + path + ".xml";
var attr:String = "";

I'm trying to make a random jpeg gallery with images that fade in, remain on screen for 10 seconds, and then fade out. So I'm starting with the fadeIn and I am making it a movieclip prototype. Now, I put a MC named ball_mc on the stage and gave it an alpha value of 0 to use for testing purposes. The ball_mc clip calls the prototype fadeIn fine, but the dynamically created movieclip does not. Is it impossible for a dynamically generated movieclip to use a prototype? I'll post the code below.
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.fadeIn = function () {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._alpha<100) {[code].....

How can I use setInterval in movieClip.prototype? This code increase num value just one time...
MovieClip.prototype.testFunc = function(num) {
var num = isNaN(num) ? 0 : num;
trace(num);
clearInterval(this.slideDelay);
num++;
this.slideDelay = setInterval(this.testFunc, 4000,num);
};
var testMc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("testMc", 1);
testMc.testFunc(0);

in flash, I want to have a button, when clicked, pop's up a new browser window, and when I click another button it can tell that the second browser window is already open and so it loads the content into that second browser window.I know how to spawn a new window using prototype in flash.

I need to prototype a tabbed interface in Flash, AS3. I was thinking of 3 MC buttons on my timeline (let's say there instance names are; tab1, tab2, tab3).
In theory I would have a respective MC (instance names; content1, content2, content3) for each tab and when the tab was clicked on, it's MC would appear below (i.e. tab1 was clicked and in result shows content1).
Any guidance as to how I would structure this in Flash I'm blanking on the code structure to get this working and can't use easy goto's on frame ids as once performed in AS2

I am getting Warning: 'flash' has no property 'prototype' every time I load a swf in my flashlog.txt.Does anyone know how to disable that warning or all warnings in the mm.cfg file or maybe some other way?

I found a cool prototype function here in the forums that plays a movieclip backwards:[code]I have the protoype defined on the main timeline of my main file. I call the function on press of a button from an external movieclip after it's loaded into main.When testing it in flash it works beautifully. When I test it online it doesn't work at all. Other code on the button being called at the same time does work (like unloading a movieclip on the main timeline).

Not sure how many remember what flash paper was, but it was a program that converted PDFs into a flash application.So I am building it in AS3 (not the conversion process, but the viewer).My question has to do with the zoom feature, well I guess the previous/next buttons as well.The way the previous and next buttons work is they reference an array of Y values of where the next page is. The array looks like this:
0,800,1600,2400,3200....etc
This works fine, however, when I go to zoom those values are not accurate anymore more.
Whenever you Zoom up I up the scale by += 0.1
Whenever you Zoom down I down the scale by -= 0.1
In that process I need to update the Y Value array to match the new height of all the combined pages. How could I do that?

I have a weird problem with my textfields.. They are not displaying at all. I've tried embedding/unembedding the fonts, removing all animations, but I can't see anything.What's weird is, a few days ago it was working fine. Then I changed some of the code a bit, then changed it back. AFAIK, my code now is just the same a few days ago.

EVERY SINGLE WEB SITE that has a flash file embedded on it causes my flashlog.txt file to display the following message, usually multiple times while a flash file is loading...
Warning: 'flash' has no property 'prototype'
This happens literally every single time I load a web page that contains a flash file embedded on it, regardless of where.
Otherwise it seems to trace all other errors and trace commands just fine.
Is this something I actually need to be concerned with in my development? I am assuming no since I get this warning in the flashlog.txt for every single flash file I open in my browser.

The default value text displays, but when you click into them to type nothing appears.I've tried embedding fonts, making sure I use th Font class, even setting them to _sans and system font, but nothing. Totally at my ropes end before I wind up re-writing most of this thing.These really should be TextInputs, I know, but this is some other f*cker's crap work I'm cleaning up and I don't feel like refactoring the rest of his garbage.

The tutorials for using CSS in Flash seem pretty straightforward, but for some reason they just don't work for me. I'm using this code:
Code:
this.createTextField("myText", 1, 100, 100, 300, 100);
myText.multiline = true;
myText.wordWrap = true;
myText.html = true;
[code]....
When I Debug>Variables, there is one line in particular that seems to be the key:
Variable _level0.myFormat = undefined

This is a really basic question, and I feel like I'm probably overlooking something extremely obvious.I'm working on a text-based application, and it's important that users aren't able to muck about with certain portions of it. OK, I thought, I'll just set textField.selectable=false right after I've created the text field.

I have four instances of a movieclip (consisted of a textfield) on stage with given names btn1,btn2,btn3,btn4. The issue is I cannot get the GlowFilter work on ROLL_OVER event Listener.

Some of the dynamic text fields in my application stopped working. This is part of a major application which I have been working on for a few months. It worked fine until today. 3 different dynamic text fields suddenly do not show text when I set the text from actionscript This is what I tried:
1) Tried with and without text embedding
2) Turned on and off html
3) Tried with .text and .htmlText
4) Removed the TextField and added a new one
5) Added static text into the dynamic TextField and did not add the dynamic text with actionscript --> the initial text appeared I am working with CS3 and recently updated. I am considering deleting Flash and not running the update.

I have a simple class which contains a TextField. The textfield is populated with data from an XML file.i am using the code:
txtField.htmlText = xmlElement.node.node.text();
txtField.setTextFormat(txtFmt);
If i don't use any HTML tags, it displays fine. But if I add tags, such as <a> or <b>, etc... the text within the tags does not display. For example, if in the XML text i have:
<node>For more information, <a href='
http://www.link.com'>Click
Here</a> to see the information.When I run the flash move, it displays:For more informationto see the information.If i remove the <a> tags, it displays fine.

I'm creating an array of thumbnails. The images are being read via an xml file. This works fine. What doesn't work is the TextField I put underneath the thumbnail image.
Code:
Select all
var thumbContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
thumbContainer.addChild(loadedThumb);
var sl = new slNum_mc; //This is being referenced as a class from the library.
sl.slideNumber.text = "abc"; //slideNumber is a dynamic textfield in the movie clip class sl, the initial
sl.slideNumber.y = 90; // text "abc" does apply at runtime
thumbContainer.addChild(sl);
addChild(thumbContainer);
searchSlideArray.push(thumbContainer); //Adds it to an array I already set up
This much does work. But when I try to trace it like this:
Code: Select alltrace(searchSlideArray[0].sl.slideNumber.text);
I get an error. How can I correctly reference the text in a text field that is housed in a movie clip class?
