question of addChild in AS3

• Question of closure of AS3

  I just started to use the closure in AS3 recently and I have a lot to learn. Here's the question. This is a loop that puts 5 balls one above the other on the stage. So far so good. However, I would like to create a situation when clicking on a button, the bottom ball is removed, and then each ball take the place of the ball below one by one, this continues for each click, until all balls have disappeared. .  I created this situation with add/remove child and I thought it might be more effective with a loop. I don't know how to access the balls because I don't have the instance name or class name can I refer too.

  var ball: gBall4M;

  var i: number;

  for (i = 0; i < 5; i ++) {}

  Prom = new gBall4M();

  ball.x = 331.30.

  ball.y = 25 + i * 17

  addChild (ball);

  }

  function release2Ball2(event: MouseEvent): void {}

  }

  using a table is a common way to keep a reference to the object ball.

  var ball: gBall4M;

  var i: number;

  var ballA: Array = [];
  

  for (i = 0; i< 5;="" i++)="">

  Prom = new gBall4M();

  ball.x = 331.30.

  ball.y = 25 + i * 17

  addChild (ball);

  ballA.push (ball);
  

  }

  function release2Ball2(event: MouseEvent): void {}

  {if(ballA.Length>0)}
  

   Ball = ballA .pop ();

  removeChild (ball);

  Prom = null

  for (i = 0; i<>

  ballA [i] = 17 there;

  }

  }

  }

• question of addChild

  I have a scene titled "start" and a scene called "animals".

  I have a button 'Start' what mc library addChild.

  This mc has 20 images.

  I want to add a script to the last frame of the mc to gotoAndStop(1,"animals")

  I get 'access of undefined property '.

  How can I solve this problem?

  Thank you

  then you fake your configuration.

  If you do not understand the relationship between the main timeline and movieclip containing your code, you can still use the following (as long as the swf with this code file is not loaded into another swf):

  MovieClip (root).gotoAndStop(1,"animals");

• Does anyone know why I make a yellow question mark by my AS3 .swf?

  I developed some Actionscript 3 animations in CS Flash 5 to use Cp5.  Instead of the green ball in the top corner icon right of the animation, I'm an exclamation mark yellow as I did when with my Actionscript 2 .swfs.  The reason why I created new in AS3 was to avoid any conflict.  Hmmm

  

  The news that I am using is red circle Moving, Moving red Rectangle and move the Point of Exclamation.  The Green Ball items are Cp5 Gallery.

  Thank you

  Ah... it is what explains why you would be to see these icons.

  When open the Captivate library, it goes through and checks the locations of the objects in the library to see if it can still connect to the location of the source files.

  I would say that the way around this problem would be to have the path to all the source files replicated on each machine you are working on.  So if you have configured a directory C:/projects with exactly the same structure of folder on each PC that you are using, the path to the source files would remain the same.  But according to me, trying to keep all the files in three synchronized machines always upward will be more trouble than it's worth, personally.

• Question of format XML AS3

  I'm working through a tutorial where the XML format looks like:

  < image CBC =" images/1N.jpg " name =" example 1 " />

  The AS3 code that goes with it is:

  imageText.text = xml.image[slideNum][email protected] ();

  imageText.text being the dynamic text field.  This code works very well, but I do not work with this particular format.  My XML code looks more like:

    < imgTitle>Kalamazoo< /imgTitle>
  < imgURL > images/1n.jpg < / imgURL >
  
  
  The previous AS3 code does not work with it. @imgTitle.toString () does not appear.  The Flash will trace the XML file for me, so I know it's reading, but it will not fill in my dynamic text field.
  
  
  All thoughts
  

  She already returns a string, and '@' is used for attributes. All you need is the following:

  myXML.imgTitle

• Question of FlashBuilder and Flash AS3

  I'm heads down working with the tool, FlashBuilder that is heavy AS3 and Flash CSx have used it for years.

  My question: I guess my AS3 skills that I have developed with FlashBuilder will be directly applicable to Flash CSx, correct? I understand that I will need the context of the application of my AS3 code for Flash objects when you work in Flash CSx, but most of the time my skills AS3 ship from FlashBuilder for Flash CS4/5?

  Thanks in advance,

  Rich

  Skills and knowledge of AS3 has nothing to do with editors in Chief/IDE (including CSx, FlashBuilder, etc.) itself. So once you get your hands on AS3 - no matter where you write your code - it will work the same way in the final compiled swf. However, there is a learning curve involved when getting to know the new software as with any new development environment.

• Why do AS3 highlighting some fonts, but not others (which are quite common)?

  Hi all!

  I have a simple question that hopefully has a simple answer (which mocks me with his elusive). In the code below (from "University of Programming ActionScript 3.0 Game" of Gary Rosenzweig (2nd ed.)), I declare a style sheet simple using AS3 supported all the tags/attributes to emphasize a HTML link. My question is this: why AS3 don't highlight the chosen font (Arial), but still it will highlight some other fonts I have to substitute (such as "Times New Roman" and "Garamond")?

  // create a basic format
  var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
  myFormat.font = "Arial";
  myFormat.size = 24;
  myFormat.bold = true;
  var myStyleSheet:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
  myStyleSheet.setStyle("A",{textDecoration: "underline", color: "#0000FF"});
  // create a text field with a Web URL link
  var myWebLink:TextField = new TextField();
  myWebLink.defaultTextFormat = myFormat;
  myWebLink.styleSheet = myStyleSheet;
  myWebLink.selectable = false;
  myWebLink.htmlText = "Visit <A HREF='http://flashgameu.com'>FlashGameU.com</A>!";
  myWebLink.x = 80;
  myWebLink.y = 90;
  myWebLink.width = 400;
  myWebLink.height = 30;
  addChild(myWebLink);
  var myLink:TextField = new TextField();
  myLink.defaultTextFormat = myFormat;
  myLink.styleSheet = myStyleSheet;
  myLink.selectable = false;
  myLink.htmlText = "Click <A HREF='event:testing'>here</A>";
  myLink.x = 80;
  myLink.y = 190;
  myLink.width = 400;
  myLink.height = 30;
  addChild(myLink);
  addEventListener(TextEvent.LINK, textLinkClick);
  function textLinkClick(event:TextEvent) {
   trace(event.text);
  }
  

  The underscore is here, that you're not just allowing sufficient height for the textfield object to show him.  TNR is a shorter police to the same font size, he manages to appear in 30 height.

• What scripting language is better to create games, AS2 or AS3?

  Just need to know the anser the question in the title for future reference.

  Thank you!

  AS3 by a landslide and CC4 when he made his debut. A better question would be what AS3 (3D) framework to write the game. In this case check out them here:

• Paint Brush tool o pencil tool

  Hi the artist just sent me a vector drawing.

  1. when I scale down it's pixelated - this is supposed to be a vector.

  2. in addition, it weighs 173 kb while similar designs head weigh only 10 KB.

  Is it because they are using the paint brush tool and if it is Yes, then why have the paint brush tool.

  In addition, it would be better to draw in illustrator? Someone told me that illustrator has too many 'points', so when you import into flash it uses more CPU.

  See you soon

  Maybe it's the AS3 forum and your question addresses a non - AS3 material... not even a Flash question - hard to tell since you mention very little about the image.  You should post questions like this in the general forum Flash.

• Buttons under link to URL in SWF but not HTML?

  I am new to AS3 and have used many tutorials online to make the components needed for my Web site, including a navigation of the menu bar drop-down.

  I coded the URL links to all of the buttons on the navigation bar and buttons as on the menu drop down. My concern is that the buttons as on the menu drop-down work in the SWF file, but they do nothing in the form of an HTML file. I don't get any errors or output problems and I am completely puzzled.

  I did an EventListener for each button/sub-sub-button and on the clip as well as the buttons/sub-sub-buttons are on. Each button has a different name from MouseEvent. Here's what the code for an individual button/sub-bouton looks like:

  chgdiff.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, mouse1AClick);
  function mouse1AClick (event: MouseEvent): void {}
  var request = new URLRequest("whyischangedifficult.html");
  navigateToURL (request, "_self");
  }

  Navigation is bar that it contains is own film clip (Navbar_mc), where the main buttons are, and the secondary buttons are on another clip of film (Dropdowns_mc) in Navbar_mc. Two video clips are coded so that when the cursor hovers over one of the main keys, on Navbar_mc, part of the chronology in Dropdowns_mc will appear.

  Given that everything works on the SWF, why won't the HTML file?

  You have posted a question on the adobe AS3 forum and I've apparently subscribed to receive email from the answers - send anything.  No problem, not just somewhere at your end.

• question for the pros on addchild

  Hey people, get help from the community as I'm still learning a few as3. I was able to get a model of a simple exercise. My question had turned around the reasoning for my object do not return to its original state. So if the circle was dragged in the defined region, that it would turn into a square, now the problem that if I dropped the element in the region, there would be a square. Now the problem that if you took the point in the target area and dragged out of the box, that it would turn into a circle (as it was supposed to), but the place would remain around it. A solution was kindly posted to remove the command below in red. How will this affect my use of multiple objects for which I use bring the child to the front. Any information would be appreciated kindly!

  backbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, Precedentcliquez);

  helpbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, helpclick);

  answerbutton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, answerclick);

  circle.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);

  Import fl.transitions.Tween;

  Fl.transitions.easing import. *;

  Import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

  Import caurina.transitions.Tweener;

  import com.greensock;

  import flash.media.Sound;

  var I: Object;

  function grabMe(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  = me e.currentTarget;

  me.removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, grabMe);

  me.startDrag ();

  e.target.parent.addChild (e.target)

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, Drachma);

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropMe);

  }

  function dropMe(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  stage.removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropMe);

  stage.removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, Drachma);

  me.stopDrag ();

  }

  function dragMe(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  e.updateAfterEvent ();

  on the other

• Flash CS6. AS3: How to load the image from a link on an image and addChild (image) on the other?

  How can I addChild outside of magazine images? When I try to addChild on the other images of the same charger, I get an error.
  I need to download all my 10 no images ONLY ONCE and place it on the screen in other frameworks (for the same film Clip).
  Also I can't play this once coded as3 framework. I know how to add an array of images, but I don't need to understand how do it with a single image.

  Here is my charger for images...

  
  

     var shirt1 = String()""https://static.topsport.lt/sites/all/themes/topsport2/files/images/marskineliai_png/215.pn g"" "");

     var img1Request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(shirt1);
   var img1Loader:Loader = new Loader();
   img1Loader.load(img1Request);
   myMovieClip.removeChildAt(0);
   myMovieClip.addChild(img1Loader);

  You declare the imgLoader outside the service, otherwise it is limited in the service...

  var img1Loader:Loader;

  function onLoaderComplete(e:Event):void
  {

  ...
  img1Loader = new Loader();

• Questions of AS3

  I have an index.swf is empty and a main.swf, which is a Web site the two files are in the same folder

  the problem I have is that in the index.swf I 1 framework with the following as3 code

  var my_Loader:Loader = new Loader();
  addChild (my_Loader);

  var my_url:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("main.swf");
  my_Loader.load (my_url);

  Now if I click on the swf file index.swf he plays without problem, but if I try to view them in a html it will not load the main swf and play that I can't understand it it works aslong as I do not see html help

  first of all, let flash publish your index.html in the same directory as your index.swf and main.swf.  Open index.html in your browser.

  If there is still a problem, download the html code and SWF on your server and post a link.

• Table MC AS3 n00b question

  OK I loaded xml in video clips created dynamically, and when the user clicks on these other dynamically created clips video clip appears with more info loaded in XML. My question is how can I go back the information individually for each clip instead of all at once. My code:

  Loader.Load (new URLRequest ("template.xml"));
  loader.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, loadXML);
  function loadXML(e:Event):void
  {
  Check = new XML (e.target.data);
  for (var i: Number = 0; i < theXml.name.length (); i ++)

  }
  }

  Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

  Load the data separately only must not serious.  I don't see a reason why you want to put a loop in the event handler.  If you add a descBox as a child of each object in mcArray, then you should be able to target the descBox using his name, but I would just change the name to be 'box' for each of them so that you can use the following syntax...

  MovieClip (event.currentTarget) .getChildByName ('box');

  That should be the object descBox, you have added as a child object theMC as long as you assign it the 'name' box (instead of 'box ' + i).

• noob question AS3 extremely - by using a with the main timeline *.as file
