• multiple movieclips and mutiple event management.

  Hi all

  I have several movieclips (image sequence), which I want to add (click and drag), mouseevent event (left and right arrows) to the keyboard and the zoom event (mouse wheel).

  I have this function for one mc (image sequence).

  Now, if I use this function, I have some problem with the call of the function of the same frame.

  It's

  If click on an other mc in frame 3 say, click on another function, it should continue to frame 3 only, not from the first image again.

  
  Help, please.

  Thanks in advance.

  I guess that shows the part where you vortag home discovered in a 360-degree mode?

  If so, do a global var on your root timeline:

  var rotationframe:int = 1; at the beginning of the application, all dirffernt images are sitting on frame 1

  You can access this var to anywhere inside any function of your application by calling:

  root.rotationframe

  now in the service which manages the rotation (lets say its your keyboard function) at the end (after you have moved the playback cursor), you ensure that you always set

  root.rotationframe = garage.currentFrame;

  and in the service that manages switching between images write you sth. as

  gotoAndStop (root.rotationframe);

  Be aware, you cannot simply use this code without adapt it to your specific needs.
  

• How to use the PrintJob.addPage method print movieclips on frame?

  Hello

  I am using Flash CS3, AS2.

  I try to print the movieclips placed on different images in the main timeline.

  First of all, I have to print the movieclip placed on the 172 chassis, and then print a movieclip on the 179 chassis and so on...

  I applied the code below to the event (release) on a button named btnPrint:

  var my_pj:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

  If (my_pj.start ()) {}

  var pageAdded:Boolean = false;

  pageAdded = my_pj.addPage (0, {xMin:394, xMax:1033, yMin:46, yMax:953}, null, 172);

  If {(pageAdded)

  my_pj. Send();
  }
  }

  I have 2 problems with the above code.

  First of all, when I click on btnPrint in my flash animation in the web browser, and then press the "print" button in the printer dialog, it can print the movieclip placed on the 172 but frame flash animation in my web browser goes to the framework 172 and stops there. I don't want my flash movie to actually go to the 172 section where the movieclip is placed, but I want to keep it at the current frame.

  The second problem is the flash movieclip placed on frame 172 a actionscript code in this document, which sets the text in the text box inside the movieclip to the value of the variable that was recovered using the loadVariablesNum() method. However, print them page shows the movieclip with no actionscript code executed - the text boxes are empty. I'm sure that codes in the movieclip actionscript is correct because movieclip exactly same spot on the current frame displays the text correctly area.

  Can someone explain to me how sove such problems?

  Thank you.

• PrintJob a MovieClip several frames

  Code

  var clipAImprimer = new ClipToPrint();   In my library

  var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();

  If (myPrintJob.start ())

  {

  For (var i = 0; i < clipAImprimer.totalFrames; i ++)

  {

  myPrintJob.addPage (clipAImprimer, null, null, i);

  }

  myPrintJob.send ();

  clipAImprimer = null;

  }

  Problem

  I'm trying to print all frames of a clip where each image is a single page. My movieClip have 3 different frames. The result is that I have 3 pages, but it is printing only the first.

  I tried to call myPrintJob.addPage (clipAImprimer, null, null, 1); and myPrintJob.addPage (clipAImprimer, null, null, 2); to do a test and it's the same result.

  I confirm that my clip has 3 different settings.

  p.s. I've tried also to label #p each image, but it is not effective for PrintJob.

  p.s.2 I have Flash CS4 and I can't use Flex, Air and catalyst.

  Does anyone have a solution?

  Thank you!

  I found my problem.

  You cannot set numFrame if this clip isn't on stage.  (this.addChild (clipAImprimer);)

• How to drag and drop multiple movieclips at the same time

  Hello world

  I'm a new actonscript 3 and adobe flash CC user and I am building an application but I have been stuck for several days. I have looked everywhere and tried everything I could think of, but I can't yet find a solution to my problem that I thought were pretty basic.

  Basically, let's say I have a rectangle and a circle on the stage. Once I did of the movieclips and assigned an instance name to each of them, I want to be able to perform a drag and drop the Rectangle so that both the rectangle and the circle become movable at the same time.

  For now, I have a mouse down events listener associated with the instance of rectangle, a method startDrag assigned to the rectangle instance and another assigned to the circle. But in this configuration, when I click on and drag the rectangle, only the circle is mobile (only the last line in the code is taken into account).

  I don't know if what I'm trying to achieve is feasible, but any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you!

  The startDrag() method can only work for one object at a time, so in your case the Treaty the last of them, designated the task.  This approach is to temporarily to plant the two objects in a container and then drag the container.

  rectangle.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag);  When I click on the rectangle

  var dragMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
  addChild (dragMC);

  function fl_ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void

  {
  dragMC.addChild (rectangle);        move objects in the container
  dragMC.addChild (circle);
  dragMC.startDrag ();
  }

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop); When I release the mouse button

  function fl_ReleaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void

  {
  dragMC.stopDrag ();
  Rectangle.x += dragMC.x;         Adjust the positions of the objects to their new location
  Rectangle.y += dragMC.y;
  Circle.x += dragMC.x;
  Circle.y += dragMC.y
  addChild (rectangle);                 move back to the scene objects
  addChild (circle);
  dragMC.x = dragMC.y = 0;       reset the benchmark for the dragMC
  }

  All this stuff of repositioning in the Drop function is necessary because when you drag the container, the positions of the content are still on their original coordinates inside the container.  So when you drop them they will resume their x / y positions in their new parent, meaning they go back where they were.  Reposition them where they have been trained to take into account the change in the position of the dragMC.

• Remove the eventlistener for multiple movieclips in a table

  Hi all

  Game scenario:

  I do a crossing road learning alphabet game. In the first level there are 10 alphabets tell of A J (movieclips) stand on one side of the road in a mixed random way. The player must move the alphabets (using the keyboard commands) in alphabetical order, so that it strikes at the entrance of a kindergarten and is removed from the scene.

  Situation-problem:

  If you click on the correct alphabet the player gets a positive score. And if the wrong alphabet is cliked, a negative score is given. This works well for the first alphabet, but, once the first alphabet hits its target and is removed from the scene, it does not work for the next alphabet since removeEventListener to the case the first alphabet code continues to work for the continuous alphabets.

  For eg., once the first alphabet "letA" is removed from the scene, and then when I click on "Letbs" that gives a score to both positive and negative. Positive note, since it is the next alphabet that must be clicked. Negative note, since the "wrongClick" table contains the movieclip 'Letbs', although it was intended for the situation, when "letA" was also present on the stage.

  Code:

  var wrongClick:Array = new Array (Letbs, THG, letD, summer, fall, letG, letH, letI, letJ);

  for (var i = 0; i < wrongClick.length; i ++) {}

  wrongClick [i] .addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, negScore);

  function negScore(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  gameScore += pointsForMiss; showGameScore();

  wrongClick [i] .removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, negScore);

  }

  }

  Requested solution:

  Can someone please tell me how I can write code that, once an alphabet is removed from the scene, the method addEventListener for above of movieclips is completely removed and a new addEventListener starts to work for the rest of the alphabet which remain on stage.

  thnx in advance

  Kind regards

  Ginette tabriz

  run this code:

  for (var i = 0; i)

  wrongClick [i]. delete EventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, negScore);

  }

  When the correct letter is clicked.  That is to say, in the correct letter listener function.

• Referencing of multiple movieclips that have similar names of instance

  I have a player movieclip and six movieclips obstacle with the name of "obs1',"obs2"instances, up to"obs6 ". If the player hits one of the obstacles, the death of variable is set to true. The code I have so far is:

  If (hitTest (_root.obs1) | hitTest (_root.obs2): (_root.obs3) hitTest | hitTest (_root.obs4) | hitT's (_root.obs5) |) {hitTest (_root.obs6))}

  dead = true

  }

  Since if the statement is bad enough as it is, I wanted to know if it was possible to reference all movieclips with instance name 'obs' followed by a digit. In my view, that it's hooks, something like:

  hitTest (_root.obs [i])

  Can someone give me some advice?

  (I use Flash CS3 and ActionScript 2.0)

  for (var i: Number = 1; i<>

  {if (HitTest (_root ["OBS" + i]))}

  dead = true;

  break;

  }

• How to drag and drop multiple objects in a mask?

  

  I worked on a flash Simulator to show what our night vision product would look like in the dark.  I managed in the implementation with the following code below.  However, I can't add a picture "crosshairs" (or symbol) to the movable mask to make it work.  Can someone help me with the code?  I looked for hours on the internet and I can't make it work.  I'm new to Flash, but begins to learn as much as I can.

  ActionScript 3:

  img_nv. Mask = mask_mc;

  mask_mc.buttonMode = true;

  mask_mc.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dF);

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropF);

  function dF(event:MouseEvent):void {}

  mask_mc.StartDrag ();

  }

  function dropF(event:MouseEvent):void {}

  mask_mc.stopDrag ();

  }

  Use a loop (such as enterframe) and update the position of the reticle to match the position of mask_mc.

  mg_nv. Mask = mask_mc;

  mask_mc.buttonMode = true;

  for example, if you add reticle_mc to the stage in the authoring environment

  removeChild (reticle_mc);

  mask_mc.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dF);

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropF);

  function dF(event:MouseEvent):void {}

  addChild (reticle_mc);

  this.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, reticleF);

  mask_mc.StartDrag ();

  }

  function dropF(event:MouseEvent):void {}

  removeChild (reticle_mc);

  this.removeEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, reticleF);

  mask_mc.stopDrag ();

  }

  function reticleF(e:Event):void {}

  reticle_mc.x = mask_mc.x;  assuming that they both have the same reg points (as the Center)

  reticle_mc.y = mask_mc.y;

  }

• gotoAndPlay multiple movieclips

  Im making a gotoandplay function. He plays 2 movieclips at the sametime, but after a few clicks his work stoppages.

  is there a way to fix this?

  And is it possible to play/stop an object in a movieclip another?

  sample

  mc_movie. One.addEventListener (MouseEvent.Click, One1);

  function one1(e:MouseEvent)

  {

  mc_movie.gotoAndPlay (100);

  mc_button.gotoAndPlay (100);

  }

  mc_movie. Two.addEventListener (MouseEvent.Click, Two2);

  function two2(e:MouseEvent)

  {

  mc_movie.gotoAndPlay (200);

  mc_button.gotoAndPlay (200);

  }

  mc_movie. Back.addEventListener (MouseEvent.Click, Back);

  function back(e:MouseEvent)

  {

  mc_movie.gotoAndPlay (1);

  mc_button.gotoAndPlay (1);

  }

  If your timeline movement happens to take you far executives where these domestic buttons do not exist, they could lose their event listeners - depends on if they also exist in frameworks where this code does not exist which could be reallocated.

• a multiple movieclips class

  Hello

  Yet once I fell on the dilemma of having a class on a Movieclip a desire then to use the same class on another clip. He put on another library attached does not work. I tried to use a class that extends my class but that extends a class extended movieclip seems misleading in flash.

  Is there a clean way without reprogramming of my class to do? Or I copy my class several times with a different name?

  TIA

  The class for Content1 was Content1 and its basic ContentFader class. Same Content2 is class: Content2 and the Base of the ContentFader class.

  Then just to mix it up a little. I created a Content1.as file, but none for Content2. Everything works as I expect.

  I guess it's as all y ' All thought that the base class meant something other than what I think he means? If that were the case it should say DisplayObject or actually all the object.

• Image of child movieclip on frame later Goto

  Hi, I tried to find a tutorial or a description on how to do it.  Sorry if I ask something repetitive, but I can't seem to find the right way to seek or find something that explains it.

  What I'm trying to do is btn1 click mc1 Timeline frame 1 which will be goto and play mc1 Timeline frame 30 where the mc2 child is, then plays mc2 to frame 10.

  I know that this will not work as mc2 exist til frame 30 but to give an idea

  Btn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, release1);

  function release1(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

  this.gotoAndPlay (30) .mc2 (10);

  }

  kind of like how you can go to an image tag in a scene

  mc1.gotoAndPlay("intro", "Scene 12");

  From what I have gathered so far, it's use integers?

  Thanks for any help.

  use:

  Btn1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, release1);

  function release1(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

  this.addEventListener (Event.RENDER, renderF);

  internship. Invalidate();

  this.gotoAndPlay (30);

  }

  function renderF(e:Event):void {}

  this.removeEventListener (Event.RENDER, renderF);

  MC2.gotoAndPlay (10);

  }

• How to delete a multiple exposures (same frame) light stand?

  I got a background shot without a light stand in the framework and then multiple exposures with the support (a lighting model). The camera has been mounted on a tripod for all managers must be perfectly aligned. Is it possible to use this context turned to clear the images light stand?

  Help, please.

  D.

  I guess you would have to make each visible layer in turn (for example, by hiding the intermediate layers above it) and file - save as, so that what is saved, that's what you see.

• Realistic of the random movements of multiple MovieClips

  Hi here is my code:

  30 images/s

  var human = 30;

  hSpeed var = 4;

  for (i=0; i<humans; i++) {
       //attach movieclip with name "human"
       //give it a random x y position (there are now 30 scattered human MCs)
       _root["human"+i].onEnterFrame = function() {
            this._x += random(hSpeed); //Here is the 'random' movement of the Movieclips
            this._x -= random(hSpeed);
            this._y += random(hSpeed);
            this._y -= random(hSpeed);
                 //some more code
       }
  }
  

  Makes the jitter movieclips on, humans don't do that, I can't find a way to make their random movement still smooth, moving in a random direction for a few seconds (preferably a random amout of seconds), then to change direction - I found a way to do it but it does not work on individuals It works on all 30 movieclips, which means that all move in the same direction.

  Don't forget that the movement must be random for each individual movieclip, not all move in the same direction.

  Does anyone know how? Thank you

  If you want to maintain the movement in a random direction for some time, then you're probably better using code interpolation.  Generate interpolations for each object that moves them from their current position to some random in some random delays.  And have a listener that determines when the Tween is complete so that a new Tween is engaged with the new direction and speed (time).

• masking of the multiple layers with a mask

  Is it possible to do?

  When I place the template files to tell... thumbnail images with rounded corners and a drop shadow, I preffer to proceed in the way that Photshop and imagready allow you to do > creat a form and use it to hide any layers above it. That way if I chose to do one or two pixels wide, I've just made it to the mask layer and resave the tumbnails outside. As far as I can tell made Fireworks you create a different mask for each layer, so you'd have to change it in each layer... not the best workflow!

  Thanks for any help on this.

  for me it's using 1 layer mask with 1

  a symbol that contains several layers of images. I can spend the layers to display the active image, I want to show

  Benefits

  1. use only 1 layer mask

  2 can group images into a symbol

  3. can you share other sets of images as symbols

  4. can I apply effects to the mask layer either STROKE / shadows

  I hope that this workflow can also help you

• detect clicks on multiple movieclips

  Hello

  Thanks for your time, read this.  I'm hard-pressed to find ways to detect clicks on various movieclips that I'm generation.   Basically, I am allowing to set a number any instances of the same clip.   I would like each instance A) be clickable and B) pass the reference to the click handler.

  For example, I have something like this:

  function addMissile() {}

  this.attachMovie ("missile", "missile" + mtop, this.getNextHighestDepth (), {_x:startx, _y:starty});})

  activeMissiles [mtop] = _root ["missile" + mtop];

  .focusEnabled activeMissiles [mtop] = true;

  Selection.setFocus (activeMissiles [mtop])

  MTop ++

  }

  I would like to add a reminder on click for each of these instances of clip.   Grateful if someone can point me in the right direction

  Best regards

  Tom

  You can use:

  function addMissile() {}

  var mc:MovieClip = this.attachMovie ("missile", "missile" + mtop, this.getNextHighestDepth (), {_x:startx, _y:starty});})

  activeMissiles.push (this ["missile" + mtop]);

  or better yet:

  activeMissiles.push (mc);

  mc.focusEnabled = true;

  Selection.setFocus (mc);

  mc.missileIndex = activeMissiles.length - 1;

  mc.onRelease = function() {}

  trace (this ._name + ":" + this.missileIndex);

  }

  }
