XML to fill some movieclips added to the scene with AS3

OK, I am new to AS3 and it's the biggest thing that I tried to do.

I'm just at a loss for the right path to take to achieve what I want to do.

In short, here is what the final result will look like:

The scene contains a large (about X size) movieclip with a scroll bar (not important for this discussion). This movieclip is created using AS3.

The large movieclip is filled with many small movieclips created from a template in the library. This model contains certain dynamic text fields (let's call them text1_MC and text2_MC). Dynamic text for each small movieclip is provided of an XML file that contains the text and text1 2 data.

I was watching tutorials to dynamically add a text as well as the instructions of plotting xml data analysis and others. What I can't find is how add dynamically the text to a text field in a movieclip and then add the movieclip on the stage and then start everything for the next bit of data.

What we call this process? I know that I am using a loop statement, but someone could give me an overview of all the different things I do to get my data on xml, fill a single movieclip, and then adding this movieclip to the greatest MC, then doing that everywhere for all xml entries I've got, then adding that great MC on the stage?  I would be happy to get it all myself.

Thank you!

Hello

You have created a single object. Only, I changed your code. pls watch it.

var Timeline_mc:MovieClip = new Timeline_MC();

var flag: Flag_MC.

function ParseFlags(flagInput:XML):void
{
var locationList:XMLList = flagInput.Flag.Location;
var titleList:XMLList = flagInput.Flag.Title;
var actionList:XMLList = flagInput.Flag.Action;
for (var i: int = 0; i< locationlist.length();="">
{

flag = new Flag_MC();

var locationElement: Number = locationList [i];
var titleElement:XML = titleList [i];
var actionElement: XML = actionList [i];
Flag.txt_title. Text = (titleElement);
Flag.txt_intro. Text = (actionElement;)
Flag.x = (location element);

Timeline_mc. AddChild (flag); / /[i] ;

}
}

addChild (Timeline_mc);

Thank you

  • Get the library MovieClip is on the scene with AS3

    Hey guys, a simple I think, right

    Could I please have the answer to get an element of MovieClip on the stage within say the class Document.

    The trick is

    I want to do when the MovieClip is link refers to a class name, but doesn't actually have a document class that is created.

    I know you can give a complete class with the document and which would not be easy.  But if you have 10 enemy objects literally doing the same thing, but just look different, why create 10 separate classes!

    or I am barking the wrong tree and that I should just set up 10 different enemy styles in the MovieClip 1 and just 1 class join her?

    Although always, I would like to know how to get dynamically a MovieClip on the stage of the library, when he isn't a class file associated with the class name in the link

    I saw that somewhere there are many moons but do not remember how it was done: s

    Thanks in advance

    I'll spare you any attempt by me to answer the questions of the Document class, but here are the basics to dynamically load a symbol in the library...

    First of all you must designate the object in the library as an element that can be dynamically loaded.

    Right-click on it in the library and select the link in the menu that appears. In the interface that appears, select export for Actionscript. A class name will be automatically assigned, you can change as you wish (let's just say you name MyObject). Is the name you will use to call in the library item.

    When you click OK to close this interface, it can come up with an indication saying that he finds not only the class so it will create a moment complie... click OK here.  You are made to prepare the object in the library.

    To add the item to the scene, treat it like any other new object instance:

    var newObject:MyObject = new MyObject();
    newObject.x =... etc...
    this.addChild (newObject);

  • simple. (add a clip to the scene with AS3 code)

    var s1:MovieClip;
    S1.x = 100;
    S1.y = 100;
    S1.z = 10;
    addChild (s1);

    I get object draw and I study like this

    var s1:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    S1.x = 100;
    S1.y = 100;
    S1.z = 10;
    addChild (s1);

    AM that I solved null object? and why I don't have anything in my point yet?

    The second approach is the right approach.  You don't see anything, because your movieclip contains nothing of Visual nature... everything what you have done is created an empty container.

  • loading movie clip to the stage with AS3 button click

    I'm trying to figure out how to load a clip to the scene with a click of a button and have the movieclip close again with a close button. Does anyone have a step by step on how to do this or links to tutorials.

    Here is an example of what I'm trying to do.

    http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c316/good_snow/FlashBoxSample_zps4e655414.jpg

    Looks like you are using a 'el' and a 'single '.  they are similar, but they are not the same.

    copy and paste from your code to your properties panel or vice versa to correct.

  • Change the text with AS3 makes the invisible text

    Hi all

    Even for a total n00b like me, this is awkward: I can't even change a text on the stage with as3.

    I place a text on my stage, assign the dynamics, incorporate the police and give it an instance name. When I change the text, he evacuated the scene or if it remains invisible, I don't know.

    I thought it would be as simple as this: myText.text = "new text";   but apparently I am doing something wrong. When I put a trace (myText.text);  before and after, I see the old and the new text in the output window. Then he changes correctly, but why he disappears it? Also tried in a new white project, to ensure that it was not something somewhere.

    I'm totally distraught...

    BTW I use Flash CS5.5 on Win7

    do not enter text in the ide.  Use actionscript to assign the original text of your textfield and also change.

  • adding video clips at random to the scene with ACE

    Hello

    I need help with my code.

    I have 3 different film clips.

    They are called butterfly00, butterfly01, butterfly02. They are exported for ACE

    I need to add to the scene by ACE. Randomly. With the help of a timer.

    I put them in a table and the idea was to get out of here, but it is not working properly.

    At the moment it works fine for the first 2 butterflies. After that, it adds the butterflies to stage 2 on the same time and then 3 and 4 and etc. Accumulates.

    Maybe someone can comment on the code.

    Thanks in advance!

    var timerLeft: timer = new Timer (5000, 10);

    var liblikas00: butterfly00;

    var liblikas01: butterfly01;

    var liblikas02: butterfly02;

    var liblikas: MovieClip;

    var symbolArray: Array;

    var symbolButterfly: int;

    symbolArray = new Array();

    1. symbolArray.push (liblikas00);

    trace(symbolArray[0]);

    1. symbolArray.push (liblikas01);

    trace(symbolArray[1]);

    1. symbolArray.push (liblikas02);

    trace(symbolArray[2]);

    1. timerLeft.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, butterflyToStage);
    2. timerLeft.start ();

    function butterflyToStage(event: TimerEvent): void

    {

    symbolButterfly = Math.floor (Math.random () * symbolArray.length);

    trace ("symbol is" + symbolButterfly);

    Switch (symbolButterfly)

    {

    case symbolButterfly = 0:

    var liblikas00: butterfly00 = new butterfly00();

    liblikas00.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;

    liblikas00.y = Math.floor (Math.random () * (1 + 150 - 350)) + 150;

    stage.addChild (liblikas00);

    break;

    case symbolButterfly = 1:

    var liblikas01: butterfly01 = new butterfly01();

    liblikas01.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;

    liblikas01.y = Math.floor (Math.random () * (1 + 150 - 350)) + 150;

    stage.addChild (liblikas01);

    break;

    case symbolButterfly = 2:

    var liblikas02: butterfly02 = new butterfly02();

    liblikas02.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;

    liblikas02.y = Math.floor (Math.random () * (1 + 150 - 350)) + 150;

    stage.addChild (liblikas02);

    break;

    by default:

    trace ("Nothing");

    break;

    }

    }

    This is a reduced version of the code:

    var timerLeft: timer = new Timer (5000, 10);
    var symbolArray:Array = new Array("butterfly00","butterfly01","butterfly02");

    timerLeft.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, butterflyToStage);
    timerLeft.start ();

    function butterflyToStage(event: TimerEvent): void
    {
    var butterflyClass = symbolArray [Math.floor (Math.random () * symbolArray.length)];
    trace ("symbol is" + butterflyClass);

    var ClassRef: Class = Class (getDefinitionByName (butterflyClass));
    var classInstance: * = new ClassRef();
    classInstance.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;
    classInstance.y = Math.floor (Math.random () * (1 + 150 - 350)) + 150;
    addChild (classInstance);
    }

    If you want to be able to target objects then you can place them in a table as you add them and target them to that.

    Hello

    You have specified that what is happening in your current application. But you have not specified what actually you are looking for. Like other members of the forums you must follow, given that over a period of time or in weeks, your application is given that you can expand the columns from the same table - because there is a limit to this.

    So, if I analyze your condition you want to perform the audit of the use of connections. What logic you have implemented to try to change a little, instead of dynamically add the column - insert lines in the table.
    This way you can figure out, when and what time specific users are logged in - the history of your users time session login.

    Note: try to develop your condition / problems, another is little difficult for us to understand.

  • Adjust the order of the layers with AS3

    I want to load an external SWF into my project. I do this by adding a charger to the scene. It seems above all, there are 16 layers in my FLA, and I want to put it between the second and the third to the lower layers. How can I do this? I looked at some things online but they are all to change the order of objects on the same layer, and they usually invole do 2 or three objects with AS3 then change the order on the same layer, always above the objects that are actually on the stage of the FLA. I want to put the SWF loaded under Of OBJECTS ALREADY EXISTING that are on different layers.

    My code:

    var pageLoader:Loader = new Loader;

    addChild (pageLoader);

    pageLoader.x = 98;

    pageLoader.y = 121;

    pageLoader.z <-as far as I know it works in a single layer, it won't jump from layer to layer.

    Some have suggested to load my swf in a clip from movie ampty bt when I do this I lose interactivity for swf file, why is this and is there away around this?

    My code:

    var pageLoader:Loader = new Loader;

    pageContainer.addChild (pageLoader);

    pageContainer is an empty movie clip

    I want to load directly to the scene and just change the layer (first method), but if this cannot be done so I need a way to get SWFs loaded into a clip vacuum film and keep their own interactive.

    I dound in connection addChildAt, which is different from addChild, because it has 2 parameters, the name of the object and its z-index. So I was able to do:

    addChildAt(pageLoader,4);

    Then I met the same problem with movie clip method is empty, I lost interactivity. Then I noticed that there movieclips above because one of them is used as a blending mode by covering it. So, I realized that the empty movie clip method did not work because there are video clips above it. So I did mouseEnabled = false. And it works, so YAY!

  • How can I remove a child from the scene with a click of a button?

    I have a movieclip which requires playback buttons, Pause, forward and backward. The movieclip has actionscript to different images to load the library movieclips and repeat.

    I tried to use a progress bar, but it does not raise the actionscript during purification, only when the film plays normally.

    My solution is to create your and button back which can go up to specific frames where the key animation will start.

    I need to develop the actionscript code that will remove the children when the user clicks Back.

    That's how I'm loading movieclips several along the timeline of my library:

    var shpA1:arSHPp1;

    function attachAR1 () {}

    shpA1 = new arSHPp1 ();

    shpA1.x = - 30;

    shpA1.y = 18;

    addChild (shpA1);

    }

    the interval is used to repeat the animation to represent the stream on a diagram

    var myInterval1:uint = setInterval (attachAR1, 500);



    What I've tried so far (does not at all - no error or trace):

    function remChild1(event:MouseEvent): void {}

    If (shpA1.stage)

    {

    trace ("arSHPp1 is in the display list");

    shpA1.parent.removeChild (shpA1);

    shpA1 = null

    }

    on the other

    {

    trace ("arSHPp1 is not in the display list");

    }

    var removeTimer;

    clearInterval (myInterval1);

    shpA1.parent.removeChild (shpA1);

  • Error #1009 when sound inside game, a movie clip that is called to the scene with child add method

    What is supposed to happen

    I have a clip that is called when the user clicks a button. When moving clip appears music is expected to play. When the user clicks the close button the music stops and the clip is removed from the scene.

    But then I get an error

    When I test the movie I get the following error:

    TypeError: Error #1009: cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

    to mc_playSong / frame2 () [mc_playSong::frame2:6]

    This is the code that calls the clip on the stage (no problem here):

    Call the video clip with the song played on stage

    stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, goButtons);

    function goButtons(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    If (event.target is song_bnt)

    {

    SoundMixer.stopAll ();

    addChild (myPlaySong);

    myPlaySong.x = 558;

    myPlaySong.y = 384;

    Event.stopImmediatePropagation;

    }

    The following code inside the clip is called to the scene. The music is meant to play:

    Stop();

    Variables for listening to music

    var RJPlaySong:RJSong = new RJSong();

    var RJPlaySongChannel:SoundChannel;

    Music for plays

    stage.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, startRJSong); (I think that the error in the code is in this function. When I comment on him I don't get error.)

    function startRJSong(event:Event):void

    {

    RJPlaySongChannel = RJPlaySong.play ();

    }

    Stop all sounds, sets variables to null and calls a send event that removes the clip of the scene.

    bnt_closeSong.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, closeCreditSongScreen);

    function closeCreditSongScreen(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    SoundMixer.stopAll ();

    RJPlaySong = null;

    RJPlaySongChannel = null;

    dispatchEvent (new Event ("RemoveMCsong"));

    }

    Someone at - it ideas? This seems to be a pretty simple question, but I can't understand it.

    I meant that you have quoted just to be taken literally.  If it's still not clear what I say or what did your code, try the following in order to demonstrate the IT change... This code to be...

    stage.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, startRJSong);

    function startRJSong(event:Event):void {}

    trace ("I can do this all day");

    }

    After doing this, you can see why you want to only call the function once, and you could eliminate most of it and just put...

    RJPlaySongChannel = RJPlaySong.play ();

    Instead, or as I said originally, you can change it to be...

    function startRJSong (): void

    {

    RJPlaySongChannel = RJPlaySong.play ();

    }

    startRJSong();

  • Select all the text in the control with AS3

    Thank you.

    Answered my own question.

    Set the properties selectionBeginIndex and selectionEndIndex of text controls.

    For example, this selects all the text in a text box:

  • Change the background color of the scene with ACE

    We I have a preloader who plays behind my clip of transparent film and I want to change the scene in the dark
    When I go to full screen. What I found most use a black box, but which are resized to FS.
    So does anyone have an alternative to change the background color with AS it would help a lot.

    Bell W.

    To resize a box mc-background to the size of the stage, you can use the following script:

    lsnr var = new Object();

    lsnr.onResize = function () {}

    _root.boxMc._width = Stage.width;

    _root.boxMc._height = Stage.height;

    }

    Stage.addListener (lsnr);

    This assumes that your background-box is named boxMc and is located in the root timeline, and the film is in mode to noscale.

    EDIT: Another option is just to make the huge background mc, so it will always cover the entire screen.
