View 1 RepliesMy Brain Is Going to Explode.. .I have five images all named 0,1,2,3,4.I have five buttons, btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4, btn5.The buttons are laid out like:when an image (lined to a button) is active it looks more like thisA timer is running, at the end of 240 seconds, the image on the bottom of the display stack has its alpha set to 0. It is then placed on the top of the stack and its alpha is tweened in.A user can bypass the timer and advance to whichever image he likes by clicking a button.
btn1 brings up image 0.btn2 brings up image 1 and so on. What happens if image 3 is showing and the user clicks btn2 is image 1 ends up at the top and the new stacking order is: 1,3,4,0,2.Meaning now my images are out of order, (in terms of the button layout). and the highlighted buttons are no longer in order (or in the order the client wants the images to display).how do I re-stack the images so that if I click btn 4, the images line up behind it correctly?
Is it possible to change the order of layers in a Flash MovieClip timeline using ActionScript 3?
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to use actionscript to change the stacking order of objects?I run two functions when i start my game, one that adds the player and set it's properties and one that generates the map. The add player function is run last so the player will appear above the map, the problem is that i have some objects on my map that i would like to appear infront of the hero, like certain tree's for example.
Is there a way i can make these objects appear infront by using actionscript? Using different layers won't work as everything is generated dynamically.
when I compile my action script project in Flash Builder 4 it creates a html wrapper file based on index.template.html in my html-template folder. That file automatically gets the name of my project or main application (project name.html). But usually I want it to have the name index.html
View 1 RepliesI am unfamiliar with Flash and actionscript and I need help to dynamically change the font of a textbox based on the value of a flashvar. I have a flash template whose content I can edit through XML. The flashvar value specifies the language and points to a different XML file. This works without problems, and I have found online a way to change the font via actionscript. However I need help on how to get a reference to that textbox.
There are two files an .fla and Main.as file. Within the fla file there is a single Scene and when the textbox is selected the properties display "thisLogo" as its name and "Dynamic Text" in the combo box below. Within the Main.as file I have attempted to add the following code:

1119: Access of possibly undefined property thisLogo through a reference with static type Main.
I hava a project in flashdevelop 4.0 and I used flex sdk 4.0.
Although I add support for FP 11 in flex config file and also in project settings and compiler options, I still get my project stated after comiplation in FP 10 not FP 11. (I uninstalled FP 10 with adobe unninstaller).
And also when I embed the swf in html page with swfobject I keep getting that I need to install FP 11 which is already installed.
So I am asking is it neccesary to migrate to flex sdk 4.5 in order to use FP 11?
If this is not a programming question than move it, but I dont know where to place it elsewhere.
why changing the index or depth of the movieClip breaks the the timeline animation of this movieClip !!
View 7 RepliesMy xml file that is dynamically generated and contains an attribute that may or may not exist in every node. In this case it's "title"
<album>
<img file="001" title="title1"/>
<img file="002" title="title2"/>
<img file="003"/>
<img file="004" title="sometext"/>
</album>
img file = an image that get's displayed, and I want to test when each file is displayed what the "title" attribute =. That all works great. So depending on what img file I'm using (based on index position), I'm grabbing the title attribute with the position index. The problem is when an attribute is missing the next "title" attribute is moving down into that index position. so when I look for the attribute like this.
[Code]...
Is there a way for the list to hold it's index position based on the img tag and then let me dig down via dot and attribute name? I've tried all sorts of combos with no success.
I have 2 arrays and I want to create the third one as associative array.ex: tab1 contains IDtab1 (10,5,6,...) tab2 contains IDtab2 (12,12,12,5,5,6,10,10...)tab3 contains both IDtab1 and IDtab2 (associative array)However I want to able to insert into the right INDEX area only.
View 4 RepliesSo, for sending to individual streams we have to reference the connected netStream we want to send to in some way like this:
sendStream.peerStreams[0].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
and I have to determine which peer I'm sending to by their ID such as "peerID1234"
I know that you can check the peerID of the stream by doing:
sendStream.peerStreams[0]["farID"]
how can I make my send stream function know to use the array index where the peerID is?
so basically it could be like:
sendStream.peerStreams[where peerStreams[]["farID"] == peerID].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
I am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?
how you launch a popupwindow so that it goes fullscreen and only has the close minimize and restore functions left in the right corner.(if no way in flash javascript will do too)

View 3 RepliesI have a flash file that loads in a external swf. That swf contains a form that I want to control the tab order on. The external swf has form fields in it, and I have their tab indexes set. When I hit tab, flash ignores the flash index, and focuses on some of the navigation elements of the parent .swf. What am I doing wrong?

I have some movieclips stacked on top of each other, i've got them swapping depths onRelease, but I want them to swap in opposite direction to what they are now. Check out the link below, basically you click the 2nd or 3rd clip to call infront of the 1st, but i want to click the 1st to send to back and so on.[URL]..
Code as follows. Does anyone know what i would change to reverse the order?

var mc:MovieClip;var total:Number = mcs.length;

I have 10 movie clips on the stage all of them are on the same layer and the alpha property at 0.5.
I want a single movie clip to randomly move to the top of the other at timed intervals. This movie clip alpha property will change to 1 while the other movie clip will remain at 0.5
I have a symbol of text with instance name "test_" on the main timeline and some graphics that are loaded programmatically. When the graphics are loaded onto the stage, it covers up the "test_" so that only part of it is visible. How do I change the depth of the "test_" symbol so that it is on top of all the graphics on the stage?
I tried this setChildIndex(test_,numChildren-1); however numChildren is equal to one so apparently it is already on top of its container. I need "test_" to be above all graphics that were loaded onto the stage instead.
I'm writing a multi-layered drawing app, and I want to be able to move the layers up and down. It's easy enough to change the objects in the display list and move the buttons, but in order for it to work continuously I need to be able to change the index of the button objects in the array so they are targeted properly by the function. Is there a way to do this in AS3?

View 1 Repliesthere is a movie clip in the library. Has three layers.Each of the layers is also in the library.Layer 1 has a button symbol, layer 2 a text symbol with instance name 'item_label', layer 3 is color. instance name is 'flbutton' it looks like this was created into a symbol itself and given intance name of 'menu_item'.An array is created with button label names.A loop is created based on the number of labels in the array.An instance of 'menu_item' is created each loop and placed on the stage/screen and the text on the button is changed to the item in the array.[code].....

I am using RadioButtons within a radiobuttongroup. i want to change the order sequence of the radiobuttons of the group based on the end user's input.i have searched a lot, but all fell into vain.

I have a series of mc's that I'm adding to the a display list of "theContainer". This is a "canvas" I'm using to drag mc's around on to make various pictures.I've set up my code so I can click any mc in that list and make it "selected". I can then, with controls outside "theContainer", change the selected clip's scale or alpha, etc.I'd like to set up 2 buttons outside that display list so I can change the stacking order of those clips in "theContainer".So if I add clip "a" to the display list, then add clip "b" to the display list, then add "c" and "d" and "e and "f" to it, I want to be able to move any of those clips forward or backward.First I'd need to learn what the index is of the clip I want to move up or down in the display list.[code]That's my problem, I can't know what the index is, or how to get a property to find it.I'm looking for a way to "get the clip's index" then to "make the index, the current index + 1", to move it up in the display list."setChildIndex( dispObj, index ) would be nice if I could know what the index was and then add +1 to it like this:setChildIndex(clip, current index + 1);

Currently creating a pure Actionscript Application within Flex, (Really just playing about to see what it can do). Currently when you create a new application it sets out all of the folders for you, and creates an SWF with the same name as the project. Is there anyway to change the name of the swf created to say index.swf.
I am aware I can create the new swf in the flash ide and go from there, but this is really just a question to see if it's possible. I am aware the is the compiler arguments, and also there is an argument -o="" or -output="", however when I use this argument and an exact path to where I want it to go Flex throws me an error.
I have a main swf that I load external swfs onto the stage. I am trying to fix the loading order. Currently when a button is pressed, the swf is preloaded, the current swf is on the stage with the preloader showing, then the preloader disappears and the swf plays the outro transition.
how to change the order so that currently loaded swf is removed from the stage, show the preloader and then show the new swf.
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;

How do I change the stacking order of Display Objects in AS3? I have a semi-transparent caption box that is supposed to be on top of externally loaded images. no matter where I place the script for that box in the code, the images always load on top of it.
