Should I do it like this:
if (DeviceDisplay.IsSpeedAvailable == false){
DeviceDisplay.IsSpeedAvailable = true;
}
or
DeviceDisplay.IsSpeedAvailable = true;
I thought I saw that flex/as3 does an internal check on booleans before they are assigned to make sure you are re-assigning stuff but I can't find it to confirm.
is it correct to assign multiple Boolean vars like so:
public var var1, Var2, Var3, Var4:Boolean = false;
i want my if statement to check if boolean is true so here is my code.
name:Boolean = new Boolean();
mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myMouseEvent);function myMouseEvent(event:MouseEvent):void{ name:Boolean = true; if(name:Boolean = true) { //code to run....
}
Syntax error:expecting right paren before colon.
probably a simple explanation that i cannot this of.
One of the things that I love about AS 1/2 is with scrpt assist on, the ability to click a box and assign an action to a button (over, rollout, rollover, click, etc.). With action script 3, at least in CS4 that interaction isn't there and you have to write the code.I'm wondering if in CS5 there is that ability with AS3? Am I the only designer who misses this function.
View 1 RepliesI'm new to AS3 coming over for AS2 and trying to figure out how to code a simple load sequence. I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a MC that is a simple shape tween that loops in the "Scene 1". I'm trying to assign code to this MC that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded. If it is, gotoAndplay Scene 2 frame 1. If frame 40 of Scene 2 is not loaded, continure to loop the MC unitil it is. Here is the code I've got for the MC in the "Scene 1"
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (i > 40) {
gotoAndPlay("firstframe", "Scene 2");
}
}
"firstframe" is the frame label for the Frame 1 in Scene 1. This seems more difficult in AS3 than AS2.
I have been reading these forums for like 2 months, thus i never felt like being able to post something as a valuable answer to someone's problem, since i've been AS3ing for like 3 months now. I have a small problem here on a game that i am trying to create. I am trying to make a shooter game . Like the ones u kill enemies and then the the level advances ( imagine the pseydomovement depth feel of the background giving the player the taste of further movement of the field , yes like old airplane games ). Ok to the point.
1) created a main .as where all the code is running. The movement of the player is written there also. no problem with that. 2) created a bullet class where i assign the bullet speed and i check for the collisions with enemies. the problem occurs somewhere here i have created a statement where every some time ( like 0,5 secs ) an enemy appears and takes a random road till the stageHeight . here is the code .

So when all 5 mikros are out i start firing them . BUT only the last child of mikros seems to follow the hittestobject procedure of my code. Which means that if all of the 5 mikros are on stage the one with the smallest .y value will disappear when hit by "sfera". I know it is huge but this pains my head for like 1 week and i cannot think anything . Tried some staff. but i do not know if this is proper thinking or if my programming is proper for this and i must redo all.

The following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?

I receive my parameters as 1's or 0's to fill a datagrid full of checkboxes. The funny bit here is that the checkbox control recognizes them as booleans! But then my checkbox control has a change property in which these numbers are converted to "true" or "false".How can I convert this changes to ones and zeroes again to send them back to database?I believed the ByteArray function "writeAsBoolean" would work, but I forgot the rest of the values inside the datagrid are kept as numbers. So that function will not recognize them and my webservice will ignore them, failing to write the data.
View 2 RepliesI have the following code:
var bool:String = "true";
Without an if block or switch statement, how can this be converted into a Boolean object?
I'm parsing an AdvancedDataGrid, and the dataField for one of the columns is a Boolean value. The column also has an itemRenderer (that I cannot change or modify). itemToLabel seems to work on every other column except for the one in question (the boolean). Ideally I would get a '0' or '1' or 'true' or 'false' string returned. Is this possible?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a dynamic layout for a flex app.
I need a boolean which is dependent upon the overall width of the browser window with which to set states, something along the lines of
if(this.parentApplication.width<950)

currentState = "wide"
}else{
currentState = "narrow"
}
However, I can't just state this in the fx:Script tags, so what is the best way to implement this? enterFrame="application1_enterFrameHandler(event)" works

View 1 RepliesI'm using String.split to parse a command line string into an array of strings. The result is then used to call a function using the Function.apply API.
If apply(null, ["17"]) is called with this function:
static function test(foo:int):void
{
trace(foo, typeof(foo));
}
it works as expected (output: 17 number).
However, calling apply(null, ["false"]) or apply(null, ["0"]) with this function:
static function test(foo:Boolean):void
{
trace(foo, typeof(foo));
}
does not work (expected output: false Boolean; actual output: true Boolean). Is there a way to make it recognize "true" and "false" (or anything else) as Boolean values, just like it does with numerical strings? "true" and "false" should also remain valid string values.
I just want to know if there is a way to assign multiple variables, and if there is a way to check multiple variables.
I want to be able to assign variables to false and then check if all the variables are false.

In Flex, how to assign swf as image source at runtime, not embedding it.[Bindable] public var myImg:String;<mx:Image id="intImg" source="{myImg}" width="96%" height="96%" />In my application, I fetch image url dynamically from a web service call, and assign it to "myImg". But until I don't get the response from the web service call, I want to show a loader swf in image control above. I assigned something like:myImg = "assets/AS3.swf";and the path of swf is correct, but it doesn't show up.UPDATE:The code I've shown above works perfectly in a Flex 3 app but the swf does not show up in a Flex 4 app. Is it because Image control has dropped the support for swf in Flex 4 ?

Is it possible, in flex, to assign multiple states as base for another state? Say I have state "stateA" that adds a button "buttonA" and state "stateB" that adds a button "buttonB". Is it possible to create a state "stateC" that is based on state "stateA" and "stateB"? If not, is there a workaround to accomplish that? Also notice that the button IDs should be "buttonA" and "buttonB" and I can't have several buttons in different states with the same ID ... Here is an example of what I want:

In Flash Professional, I have a MovieClip and that clip has children. Let's say the parent clip is a night sky and the children are different instances of a star MovieClip that animates in a loop. This whole thing compiles down to a NightSky.swc which I use in Flash Builder as part of a larger project.
In Flash Pro, I position the child clips with a high level of precision. From there, I want to assign properties to these "stars." Say, I want to assign "galaxyId" and "isRedGiant" but (and this is key) I want to edit those properties in Flash Professional and have those value accessible in Flex.[code]...
I am amateur in flex, and started my final year project in flex to learn it, I am stuck in place where I have to create rows of drop down lists when the user pressed add more, E.g.: like the ones in mail attachments. I think I have found a way to generate rows, I am not even sure whether it is a correct way, how I generate the rows:
<mx:states>
<mx:State name="newRow">
<mx:AddChild relativeTo="{cityDropdown}">
<s:DropDownList id="newbutton" creationComplete="hotelDropdown_creationCompleteHandler(event)" labelField="Name">
<s:AsyncListView list="{getAllHotelResult.lastResult}"/>
</s:DropDownList>
</mx:AddChild>
</mx:State>
</mx:states>
Now when I generate more rows the dropdownlist ids will conflict, so I want to know a way to generate ids, I think I cant even call a function in there.
I want to assign date to Date field that is in DD-MM-YYYY format. That is I receive String Closure_Date which contains date in DD-MM-YYYY format.
I want to assign that date to Date field like:
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Closure_Date);
In this case If Closure_Date contains 16/11/2011 it takes 16 as month so it takes 12 and adds remaining 4 months and it returns 04/11/2012.
My question is how to assign date(DD-MM-YYYY) to DateField?
If I use Dateformatter(DD-MM-YYYY) like
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Dateformatter.format(Closure_Date));
It Returns NaN
