Flash :: Use MovieClip Target Name To Pass Variable To Function
Feb 22, 2012
How can I combine the following functions and still pass a different string to the buildUI(); function?
I have two functions that do the same thing only at the end they both call a function and pass a String value to the function. This string value is the only thing different.
Below is are my eventlisteners and functions as they are now:
female_start.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startFemale);
male_start.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMale);
//FUNCTIONS THAT DO THE SAME THING AND BOTH CALL buildUI BUT PASS A DIFFERENT STRING.
I have a movieClip named MC, and it's enabled with action script, with the class name MC_Rectangle and a Stage.I override the MC_Rectangle class file in a mc_rectangle.as external file.here is the code:
1. how can i access the variable "sequence" in "mc_rect"
2. how can i pass parametre from main stage to mc_rect via function setSequence(data:int)?
3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.
in asp.net, i usually use mc_rect.sequenct,mc_rect.setSequence(data), mc_rect.addSequence() to achieve my goals......btw, can function in mc_rect return out result to main stage?
I have an external log file which name changes each session, with the format XXXXX.log I need to load it inside a swf to show its data, but each time the log's name is different, I need to open the .fla, changing the name of the file and then republishing the swf. So I have made a simple script to load another .txt, to type manually in it the 5 number of the logs name and load it externally inside the swf:

Code: var logNumLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); logNumLoader.dataFormat=URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES; logNumLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadedLogNum);
[Code]....
While I cannot assign the value of logNum to the last function, the .log cannot be opened.
I have a number of nodes that are plotted on stage. I want to display the value of each node when hovering over the node (using the Tooltip class). [code]...
the idea is that the site keeps tracks of whatever page is current and passes this variable to the alpha function which will target that movie instance to fade when moving to another page - then that page's name will be assigned to current.this is the code that i have now..
How do i pass a variable to a function from an event listener which is inside a function Below is a function that is called when after loading some variables
function dataOK(mydataevent:Event):void{ var j:int = 0; do { trace(j);
[Code]....
This is a simplified version of the original code. The above function generates an error because j is undefined in the function. I am wanting to get the variable j when the button is pressed.
How do I pass the variable j to the Button_Click function?
I am running a loop to pull thumbs into a containing movieclip from an xml list. What I want to do is have the thumb's parent movieclip fade in after they are done loading, but I can't figure out how to reference the parent once it's loaded.My code(which currently doesn't work the way I want it):
var vsThumb:articleBox; var currentarticleX:Number = 0; var articleLinkURL:String;
Code: onEnterFrame = traceMe("test") traceMe = function(param){ trace(param)} If that won't work then would someone explain how you get something to execute a predefined function and pass a variable...
I am trying to define a new MovieClip variable and assign it the value of event.target in the function. I keep getting this error "1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type flash.display:MovieClip."
import fl.transitions.Tween; import fl.transitions.easing.*; var p:Number = 0; var scale_factor:Number = 0.4; var tween_duration:Number = 0.6; [Code] .....
I am creating a quiz and I set one quiz block with questions into a movieclip. When the person answers the correct answer I want it to add to a counter and pass that value onto the next movieclip. So movieclip one is added to the stage it does something then adds a counter. Then moves to the next frame and movieclip2 is added to the stage. It does something and add to the same counter variable from movieclip1. And so on and so on until no more movieclips.
I have this functions which attaches movieclips on the Stage and makes them move clockwise. The problem is I cant pass the radius[i] variable to the new movieclips.
Code: function placeItems(itemName:String, num:Number) { var angle:Number = 0; var radius:Array = new Array(); for (var i:Number = 0; i<num; i++) { radius[i] = Math.floor(Math.random()*100); [Code] .....
I have a document with main class.I also have some movieclips which have their own class and functions.I am trying to pass a variable from my main class to one of these MovieClips.I tried some stuff, nothing worked.
I need to pass a variable value contained within a MovieClip to my class file. The MovieClip is my preloader, to which my code will show that upon the initial launch of the SWF. Until the variable is sent, my code assumes the preloader is still running and therefore will not progress. Originally, it was working when I had my class file extend MovieClip and then used this code in the preloader MC:
