addChild or visible property

Hello

I am brand new to Flash and I read a lot of tutorials and help forums.  I'm at the point now where I'm working on my own project and it is the best way for me to pick it up to get down and dirty.

Up to present, so good, but I have a question, more like a poll.

I have 80 symbols that at a given time, 10 of them will be turned off and then some animation in their place.  What is the best way to achieve constant on and off these symbols.  Should I use an addChild and removeChild in AS3 or make them slide to their point of step and use a visible property and hiding in the actionscript code?  The locations of the 80 symbols never change, just their visibility.  Excactly the same with replacement animation.

Thank you.  I'm curious to see your answers!

Simply change their visibility, it's the easiest way.

  • Is there a more efficient way to use the visible property node to make the inactive/hiding controls on the front?

    I just inherited the labview code to run a system of imaging optics mamography.

    It has 32 sources 128 detectors and 2 games of light and the user has the possibility to control the parameters of gain for each sensor to each source for each source of wavelengths, so as you can imagine there are a lot of orders and LEDs on the front panel.

    The user also has the possibility to choose the number of sources and that they would like to use detectors.  v: * {behavior:url(#default#VML) ;} O'Bryan: * {behavior:url(#default#VML) ;} w\: * {behavior:url(#default#VML) ;} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML) ;}}}} Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 / * Style Definitions * / table.

    Depending on how many sources are entered labview code through a loop For which in fact a 'smooth box' visible or invisible, on the adjustment of gain control depending on whether the current detector is greater than the seizure of the number by the user.  This loop slows down the program because it works 128 times (max number of detectors) and has 4 structures deal (2 sets of wavelengths, 2 for each breast) with 64 nodes of property each where it is visible property to enabled or disables the box with that covers the detectors.

    I was wondering if there was an easier way to enable or disable controls for unused detectors, not only that slows down the program but to reconfigure the data to use more sources, I stop the program and restart it.

  • Someone has problems with the visible property of the fields of dynamic text in html5 canvas?

    Hi, I have problems with text fields dynamic that I placed the Framework 1. I wanted to have a visible property false until after the click of a button. So, I placed a line of code on the layer actions of frame 1 as:

    This.Sum.Visible = false; sum is the dynamic text field

    Even with 5 other text fields.

    Some of the fields appear when I test the movie and others not, but no suppose to appear. The console.log shows no error, and when I investigated console.log as: 'console.log (this.sum.visible)', I get 'false '.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you for your time.

    Yes, the link displays multiple textfields whose visible property works without problems in an animated project of html5.

  • Visible property of symbols

    In Flash, I can set the visible property of a MovieClip in ActionScript as follows:

  • Child and Parent of MovieClip - Visible property-

    If it is an object is placed on the stage named 'square' and with the main document class object has been added to with addchild, 'square', if I wanted the place to not be visible, but always to be the parent, while the new object added to 'square' has been made visible, how would get you there?

    My tests:

    It seems that if you set the parent to 'false' visibility and then try to set the visibility of the child to 'true' she disregards this request because the visibility of the parent replaces it, so the entire movieclip object remains completely invisible.

    It seems that you can make a child becomes invisible, while the parent is visible, but I want to do the opposite.

    The only way I found to do something similar to what you are wanting is to have a 'container' Sprite or Movieclip that contains your parent object and valuables of the child; If your parent is not really a parent and you can manipulate its visibility regardless.

    Otherwise, you could maybe play with your child object's blendMode property and get some sort of masking of the parent, but ultimately, I think it will be better if you simply plan the structure of your project around structure of AS3.

  • Visible property node question

    I need to enlarge the various controls on my front and disapper with function of what is done is there an easy way to do a lot of different things appear and disappear without creating a node property for each individual. His slow me down a little during the execution and the sound also make my huge primary VI.

    Try to create a table of references to the things you want to make visible/invisible, and then pass this array in a loop with a property node inside. This should make you save a lot of space to block diagram.

    as follows:

  • Visible property node tab Page work does not correctly

    I do a vi in which we have a tab with 6 pages control and to move from one page to the next there is control of ring with option for each page to page 1 (page 1 is the default value), at the same time only a single page is visible, so that we can move only through the control of the present ring on page 1 and return to page 1 of all the other pages there is button "return" on all other 5 pages, everything works well for 5 pages, but when after going to page 6 and then if I press return button instead of going back to page 1 program crashes and one more thing I've noticed is after that judgment of the program on page 6 becomes the default page (which is page 1) I know not why it is past.

    I enclose the snippet of code that runs when I press go button "back".

    one more thing I get here is when I checked the program through the execution of the step, the last property node (page6) that runs first, after that it goes to the first node in property, then he goes in order, this also I want how is what is happening.

    It would do the same thing as your code?

  • Visible property = true on frame 100

    I have a series of buttons (6) placed directly on the stage I don't want to see up to 100 image, or essentially after "100 images at the time" that is when everything on the stage is set and made the animation. I can't get this seemingly simple task to work. I have a layer "actions" on the first picture in this declaration for one (1) of the buttons (6) for example:

    btnSoundIsOff.visible = false;

    Of course, this works like a champ, you don't see this button at all. Unfortunately, I can't make it become visible. I tried to put this statement on frame 100 on the main timeline and realized that it cannot possibly work:

    btnSoundIsOff.visible = true;

    I have (1) frame in the main timeline, not to mention a preloader, so of course Frame 100 never plays. I also tried adding statements of visible button to frame 100 of my latest animation movie clip, but then I get this and that undefined errors. I'm not grasp an important fundamental concept of AS3 apparently. I need the buttons appear after 100 images and be able to work. What Miss me? Thank you very much, I hope I explained enough of my crisis if not let me know.




    Take a look at the Timer class; using it you can ask something happen in x milliseconds. This might be enough for you.

    Alternatively, if you measure in images rather than milliseconds, you can define an ENTER_FRAME event that constantly adds 1 to a variable. When he reached 100, you could do your button configuration.

  • The visible property works in content within a scroll pane?

    I have google searche and asked for a solution, but I can't mc._visible = false: or = true; work inside a scroll pane. I have several bubbles placed on a clip that is referenced by the scroll pane. I want the ToolTip to display the mouse on an affected area and disappear on mouse out. This code does not work:

    / * menu * /.
    sp.content.menuTxt._visible = false;


    sp.content.menux.onRollOver = function()
    {
    sp.content.menuTxt._visible = true;
    TPI Content.MenuX._alpha = 50;
    }

    sp.content.menux.onRollOut = function()
    {
    sp.content.menuTxt._visible = false;
    TPI Content.MenuX._alpha = 0;
    }

    But if I move the movie clip to the main stage and copy the code next works:


    / * menu * /.
    menuTxt._visible = false;


    sp.content.menux.onRollOver = function()
    {
    menuTxt._visible = true;
    TPI Content.MenuX._alpha = 50;
    }

    sp.content.menux.onRollOut = function()
    {
    menuTxt._visible = false;
    TPI Content.MenuX._alpha = 0;


    }
    There are some of the affected areas and ToolTips in the clip, and they are also video clips. Am I hitting against a limitation? I found a few references to the depth of clips with regard to scrolling but component which was confusing.

    The only reason why I don't see why the menuTxt would not work inside the scrollpane would be if he was missing his name of the instance.  I say this because to take your code and recreate what I can make the drawing or model and see it work in accordance with what the code told him to do.   It works according to the code, so if you see that it does not work by what you expected, it says not to do everything that it is.   Here is a link to the file...

  • Visible property: Array

    How can I make this invisible table?

    var ErMsg = new Array ("error_sq1", "error_sq2", "error_sq3", "error_sq4", "error_sq5", "error_sq6", "error_sq7", "error_sq8");

    for (var i = 0; i < = ErMsg.length - 1; i ++) {}

    ErMsg [i]) ._visible = false;

    If these are names of instance objects in the array, either get rid of the quotes in the table use the notation of support in the code to target.

    This message is a warning that you somehow try to use the setVisible of a popup that does not work as it does nothing. The setVisible() method is obsolete and does nothing but write the message in the log.

    There is not that you can do about it, but to avoid calling setVisible on the popup.

    Do you have somewhere in your code call setVisible on the popup (or use the visible property of the popup on the page?

    I'm removing the display objects appropriate so that they do not accumulate in the system memory as they do currently.  However, I don't know how to do this.  Whenever I create a new addChild object by dragging with the mouse on a grid of buttons these children added to the display list, but those hidden remains in memory, so accumulation of memory and running on the problem of Flash Player to run out of memory, even in a 64-bit with much system memory.

    Any suggestions on how to properly do a removeChild or removeChildAt?

    Thanks in advance.

    I found a solution, but not a good.  The solution I want to use correctly the method removeChild or removeChildAt.

    What I did instead

    1 addChild'ed images loaded to the display list

    2. set the visibility property of the added Childrens' display false

    3 listen to the same which determine the visibility of the child given to be true

    4. set all children in the table I created for visibility to false in the loop for

    5. set the visibility of the array element currently enabled to true, which displays only the correct image and does not overlap the same image several times in memory only.

    I hope someone can find my solution useful.  I can post the code if necessary.
