anyone knows how to pass an array values from an HTML into flash? Well, to begin I'll discuss what am I doing. I edited a twitter widget javascript which search tweets based on the hashtag I needed then passing it on an array per tweet and then displaying it using a <div> it updates once every 5 minutes. Now I want to display those tweets on a dynamic text on Flash. Let's say I will have 5 dynamic text placed on my flash file then; I want each of those dynamic text to have the tweets I have based on on my HTML arrays to be displayed in random.
i have two arrays of DesplayObjects and i want to add all the objects in the second array to the end of the first array, i knew that i just can just do a loop and puch em into the array, but i wondered if there was a simple function for doing this?
Passing a JavaScript array to Flash?I want to pass an Array from JavaScript to a Flash movie. My goal is to create an Array of URLs to pass to Flash and once the Array is in Flash, I can access those URLs in the movie.I know how to send a variable to Flash using the "Embed" and "Object" tags using "FlashVars".
<PARAM name=FlashVars VALUE="song=song_URL">
but I want to somehow send and array, or maybe can I call a function that creates the Array I want to send?My reason is to have an HTML developer come back and change the Array values and that will change the Flash Array, so they don't have to edit the Flash movie.
I have a chart and am trying to display the "volume" in a line chart as the primary series & the "temp" as a column chart as the secondary series...(the "compound" will be shown in the datatip):
[{date=Tue Feb 08 19:00:00 EST 2011, volume=1200, 1={temp=-50, compound=helium}, 0={temp=-45, compound=oxygen}}]
I can get the "volume" series to display fine, but cannot get the "temp" series to display...how do I access them? Right now I have:
Our web application has a feature which uses Flash (AS3) to take photos using the user's web cam, then passes the resulting byte array to PHP where it is reconstructed and saved on the server. However, we need to be able to take this web application offline, and we have chosen Gears to do so. The user takes the app offline, performs his tasks, then when he's reconnected to the server, we "sync" the data back with our central database.
We don't have PHP to interact with Flash anymore, but we still need to allow users to take and save photos. We don't know how to save a JPG that Flash creates in a local database. Our hope was that we could save the byte array, a serialized string, or somehow actually persist the object itself, then pass it back to either PHP or Flash (and then PHP) to recreate the JPG. We have tried:
iSo let's say I have three different arrays of objects, and I want to combine them into one sorted array. I want the order to be such that the items from each array are evenly distributed throughout the sorted array.
If there were 3 xItems, 3 yItems, and 3 zItems, the sorted array would have this order: x, y, z, x, y, z, x, y, z
HOWEVER, even if the arrays are differing lengths, I still need to make them alternate as much as possible. If there were 6 xItems, 4 yItems, and 2 zItems, the sorted array should have this order: x, y, x, y, x, z, x, y, x, y, x, z
I'm able to record sound with a Flash application embedded in my website, this audio is saved to a ByteArray, which I need to pass to Javascript in order to post to my server along with other required data.
I know I can use AS3 ExternalInterface class to communicate with Flash from Javascript, but what would be the appropriate format or variable type in javascript to hold the ByteArray, and how can I ensure that I won't lose much audio data when doing so?
I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array(); var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array(); slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.
what's a simple way to combine arrays with as3? by combine, i mean that contents of one array are pushed into another array.I already tried a for loop and push.
Long story short: I want to search a multidimensional array in AS3 for (in this example) the location of 6 strings - all of which are stored in another unrelared array. Long story long: Once I get the locations (in the multidimensional array) of each string, i then know where it's located, and can access other atributes of that object - so if i found the string "box3" is located in element [5] of my multidimensional array, i can now target: multiArray[5][3] to return the 4th item stored (keeping in mind we're starting from 0, so 3 is the 4th position).
I can get this to work once, but I'm trying to set up a for loop based on the length of my basic string storage array - this array holds (in this example) 6 instance name strings - each time my for loop loops, i need to run a search in my multdimensional array for the next consecutive instance name. Then, once I've located all of them (and store the results in a new temporary array) I can dig around in each location for the info I need.
I am working on a break through technology which brings together Audio DSP, Embedded, C/C++ and Javascript/AS3. I am in charge of getting the javascript/as3 done .
I need to send Arrays to and fro Javascript / Actionscript 3.I tried the javascript/as gateway from http://osflash.org/flashjs. It's done in actionscript 2 and I might have to migrate it to as3. I am not sure how long it would take.And I tried the ExternalInterface class in AS3. But it seems only strings can be passed using the addCallBack() and call() methods. Moreover I was not able to reslove the security issues when the flash player tried to communicate with the javascript.
I have an array of movie clips (representing band members) which have various properties, among them them a property which tells where the band member went to after they left their current band. For those who formed a new group, I want to create an array. Within that array, I want to group all the ones that left for the same group into secondary arrays. So, if you had five band members and 2 of them left for group X and 3 left for group Y. What's the best way to do this? This is, roughly, my code:
[Code]...
Alternatively I suppose if I could do without a multidimensional array and just loop through all the members and say - for those members whose group is the same, perform this function, with the name of that same group passed as the parameter for the function. I guess the trouble I'm having is identifying who's the same.
Is this the correct, most efficient way to recycle objects when creating an array of objects?
package com { public class CreateList extends MovieClip { //this is the object I will be recycling private var newProperty:PropertyRow; //this is the array I will use to reference the objects
For example, when users are connecting to this application they are given a userid var, then it's inserted into the array. So, i'm using chosenUser = usersOnlineArray[Math.round((Math.random()*usersOnlineArray.length))]; to pick another random user. But i need to make sure it doesn't pick the userID they personally were assigned so they don't end up getting themselves. how would i use that code but tell it to "remember, make sure you dont pick userid" maybe I could do something like
Sorry if this is a little n00b-ish. I'm working in AS3. I've got an array of 8 buttons. I'm currently hiding the button that is clicked using e.currentTarget. How can I tell flash to make all the buttons that aren't the currentTarget to become visible (i.e. if a button has been hidden by previously being clicked, how do I tell it to become visible again when another button is clicked?)
I was wondering is it possible to pass an array through the localConnection in flash? My local connects connect my flash application with the javascript and passes variables between them.
I'm having difficulties transfering the content of a future array from XML to Flash.My goal is to be able to set variables in an XML file that will then be used in Flash.For that purpose, I've started to set my xml like that and it's running ok.
I am trying to test the collisions between a bullet and an array of enemies in Actionscript 2. However it is not sensing a collision.This is the code in the bullet.
I have declared an Array as a new Array(); I would like to push objects into that array but have a text field read back the array minus the commas that are pushed by user interaction (from numbered buttons).
For example, if the user pushes button 1 then button 4 then button 8 I would like the array to read in the text field 148 instead of 1,4,8 .
I have an array wich is filled with platforms that are supposed to move.
var MovingPlatformArray:Array = new Array(); for (var c:int = numChildren - 1; c >= 0; c--){ var child3:DisplayObject = getChildAt(c); if (child3.name == "movingplatform"){ MovingPlatformArray.push(child3);
[Code]...
Right now I have 2 moving platforms in this array. But only one moves up and down. But they both register a touch with the birdie.
I have an created an associative array of MovieClips, but when I try to iterate through them, the for loop never gets entered (nothing gets outputted). It's like as-if the Array is empty.
var navItems:Array = new Array(); navItems["home"] = item_home; navItems["featuredfilms"] = item_featuredfilms;
This should hopefully just be a quickie. I'm slowly starting to learn Flash and Actionscript and right now I'm a bit more stuck than usual. I have an array, "container", to which new movieclips are added by clicking a button. When they are added they are given a name, "pic" + i, and are added at the corresponding index "i". Now, what if I want to change the position of a certain movieclip in the array or alter its alpha value? I tried something like:
I found a good class to convert XML to Array of Objects just like SimpleXMLSecoder do in flex.The problem is the class does not convert it to array if there is only 1 node. I tried to modify it without success.
PHP Code:[code]....The above code returns length if I use the commented list. I want to create 0 index Array if there is one element only.
