Flash :: Allow Only Numbers In Dynamic Txt

Dynamic Numbers
I've created a simple bar graph, and I've tweened the graph to change values to new data. At the top of each bar, I have the actual number value for that bar, like my math professor told me to label my graphs back in HS.

Here's what I want to do. I want to make that number change to the new value by cycling through numbers as the bar increases or decreases. It doesn't have to be true data, just the graphical effect of the number value changing, and it has to stop when the bar graph tween stops.

I took a look at the cycling number tut on Kirupa, and it does the effect I want, but since it's random in time, The numbers won't always stop when the bar is done loading. Anyone have a better solution than this?? Like maybe linking the Bar's coordinate values to the dynamic text? Any help would be great.

15 Different Numbers One Dynamic Text Box.
I have 15 different numbers (corresponding to 15 different movie clips) that I want to add (when the user makes a movie selection) as part of the dynamic text box variable, as shown below. Ideally I want the numbers to dynamically change if the user changes movie clips selection on stage. How do I get that view area variable to correlate to 15 different movie clips? Or other suggestions. Thanks in advance.

on (rollOver) {
_root.viewAreaText = ("Number shows the optimal width of the ideal viewing area" + viewArea);
}
on (rollOut) {
_root.viewAreaText = " ";
}

Meter With Dynamic Numbers
I have been trying to do this for a while and I have had especially problems with the format of numbers.

- How can I get the numbers to be displayed without decimals? All the numbers start from zero and numbers should be displayed as whole numbers (no desimals).

- How can i get the loop to start from 00000000. All the x,y and z numbers will be displayed as a rolling numbers so that all the zeros before the actual number are displayed. Highest amount of numbers is 8 -> 00000000 ( <-- startpoint ).

I'm doing a meter that should show 3 different numbers, x y and z.

Relations are following:

x = y + z

y grows n (amount) / second
z grows n (amount) / second

x, y and z sets to zero when 86400 seconds have passed and starts again.

Thank you allready!!!

Dynamic Text Numbers
hello again if i did a code like this

onClipEvent(load){

var x = _root.skillboard.attackmove1;
var y = _root.skillboard.attackmove2;
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(enemy.hitTest(_root.attackmove)) {
_root.hp1 -= (random(x)+y);
}
}

i use this is in my game as an attack system, but anyways
right now attackmove1 is set to1
and attack move 2 is set to 25

but say during gameplay the char levels and increases the attack move number up, would flash keep 15 and 25 or would it use the new number?

Dynamic Random Numbers
Hey,

What code would I use to have a dynamic text box scrolling through random numbers I specify I.E "4", "8", "72".

Also, Is there a way I can add/remove what numbers it scrolls through after certain actions have been performed?

so initially it may begin scrolling randomly between "4", "8", "72" but then after a certain event it only scrolls randomly between "4" & "72"

Thanks for any input you might have

Numbers On A Line In A Dynamic Textfield?
How do I make a loop like:

}

where the textFieldVar will look like this;

"12345678910"

Dynamic - Random Vowels And Numbers HELP
Hi!
I tried posting this on another site - but the info I got back really didn't help too much so am trying on here instead! Bear with me!
I have a button on my stage and a dynamic text box called 'num1'. When I click the button I would like the dynamic text box to return a number from this selection - 25, 50, 75 and 100.
Similarly I would like another button to return a random vowel in a second dynamic text box.
And finally a third button to return a random consonant in a third dynamic text box.
Please help me do this - I think it has something to do with arrays but getting the output to go to the dynamic text box is UTTERLY FRUSTRATING!!!
Any help anyone?!

[MX04]rounding Dynamic Numbers
has anyone ever had the problem where they have a timer or health box and it's supposed to go to 45, but instead it goes to 44.99999999999999999999? i want to know if there is a way to prevent that, say tell the computer to always round to the nearest tenth. can someone help me? thanks.

Dynamic Fields Not Adding Numbers
Hello everyone,

Thanks in advance for helping or helping to point in the right direction.

I have 5 dynamic text (number) fields on my stage. (amt1_txt, amt2_txt...)
5 variables declared. (var a:Number = 2, var b:Number = 4...)

I have 1 dynamic text (number) field on the stage (total_txt).

I also have 5 buttons that on(release) populate the 5 dynamic text fields with the variables.

I have tried a code for the total_txt field that hopefully adds all the other fields as they are populated (seen on the stage).

total_txt.text = (amt1_txt.text + amt2_txt.text...etc.)

I am getting absolutely nothing in the field. If I take out the .text from the 5 fields I at least get a NaN but of course that doesn't help either.

NEW TO FORUMS... THANKS MUCH.

Adding Commas To Dynamic Numbers
I have this calculator that takes a number from one text box, multiplies it by the value of a 2nd box and outputs into another text box the total value.

When the total value appears, I used the Math.round function to round the final number to the nearest whole number.

My question now is... how do I add commas if the total is greater than 999. Example : 1,000 100,000 1,000,000

The code is pasted below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

AverageTotal = (Math.random(Breech))*(Math.random(Average));

Dynamic & Input Text Numbers?
hi, I'm trying to get a box to move on the x axis a number of pixels equal to the number I enter in the dynamic/input text , after clicking a button/mc; instead of just putting the text from an input into a dynamic output text box. There's tons of uses for this technique if it works so it's really important to get this kind of technique working, even though there's easier ways (like slider bars) to do it.

I have three objects: a box_mc; an activate_mc; and a dynamic textbox called input_text. I've tried both dynamic and input settings and fiddled with the inputs, but I think I need a root or global variable somewhere. My actionscript right now doesn't work, but it's basic:

stop();

activation_mc.onRelease = function() {

box_mc._x += input_txt;
}

How Do I Add A Few Numbers From Dynamic Text Boxes?
ok so i searched the forum an i cant really figure it out

i have some numbers load from an external text file into a few dynamic text boxes, ok so lets call them scoreA, scoreB, an scoreC. An say i want those numbers to all add up into a dynamic text box named SCORE.

now ive seen something about Number(string); to make the numbers in the boxes real numbers because they only add like 3+4= 34 instead of 3+4 =7. But for one where does that Number(string); go or how does it work?? an then once that is complete what should the script look like to add all 3 to equal in another dynamic text box. thank your very much if can help me

Dynamic Text Numbers Increase
Hey guys,

This may be a dumb question but I'm pretty new to actionscript. I have a movie clip with a starting number of 3.75 and I was this number to increase to 6.00 and then stop. I know this should be pretty simple to do with a little actionscript...any ideas?

Thanks

Xml Slider Needs Counter / Or Dynamic Numbers
Hi All,

I hope someone can help me out with the following:
I have a horizontal xml picture and info slider. All works fine exept
I need some additional features to it..

one of them to start of with is a "counter", 2 dynamic textfields which display
A:the current picture number and
B:the total number of pictures

here is my current actionscript:

ActionScript Code:
my_xml = new XML();my_xml.ignoreWhite = true;my_xml.load("slider.xml");my_xml.onLoad = function(status) {if (status) {obj_xml = this.firstChild.childNodes;clipGen();}};function clipGen() {for (var i = 0; i < obj_xml.length; i++) {this.attachMovie("clip", "clip" + i, i); this["clip" + i].display_txt.text = i+1;this["clip" + i]._x = this["clip" + i]._width * i;this["clip" + i]._y = 0; this["clip" + i].titel_txt.text = obj_xml[i].attributes.titel;this["clip" + i].date_txt.text = obj_xml[i].attributes.datum;this["clip" + i].content_txt.text = obj_xml[i].firstChild;this["clip" + i].image_mc.loadMovie(obj_xml[i].attributes.bild);this["clip" + i].url_btn.url = obj_xml[i].attributes.links; this["clip" + i].url_btn.onRelease = function() { getURL(this.url,"_blank");}}

Even better would be a horizontal line of number 123etc...which would be clickable..
and direct the slider to the acoording project..

and still not incorporated is a preloading script....but let's start with the counting thingy..

Hope someone can advice/assist me with some "counting"actionscript

Thanks in advance!

Best,

Arn

Dynamic Number Of Page Symbols With Numbers
Hi!
I am trying to make some sort of dynamic "Load page num.X"-kind of navigation. I have one rectangle shaped movieclip - which is a page. Inside this is a one dynamic textbox which is suppose to show number of page where it leads.

The first big problem is that I cant get correct page number for the page-links. I have succesfully duplicated page-link symbol with duplicateMovieClip(mc1, mc2, mc3...) How I can get right number to right page?
Now my every page-link shows the same pagenumber.

One solution is to somehow assign variable "i" in a creation process as a "page"-variable to the timeline of just created clip, but I really dont know how to do this.

I also tried "getDepth" inside the page-link-symbol, but it just gave some error(?).

Any ideas?!

I only have 40 pages to makeb so it would be easy task to make without hc-scripting, but it would be neat if it could be processed with scripting and only one page symbol!

Rotating A Circle With Dynamic Numbers - ANY IDEAS?
Hi!
I want to click a button on the stage which will allow a large circle to rotate freely and stop randomly after about 3 or 4 seconds.
The circle will be split up into 10 segments ( each segment has a number from 0 to 9 in it ) and which ever number is at the top of the circle - i would like to appear in a box to the side of the screen.
Any ideas folks?!
Cheers

[MX04] Random Numbers In Dynamic Text?
I have been going through trial and error for 3 days, searched flashkit, and the forums, and could not find this out!

I want, upon loading, a little dynamic text box to take away off the number in the text box, a random number inbetween 1 and 10.

This is what I have in the code (It is in the frame):

Code:
_root.testbox-random(10);

It does nothing when I load.
No, I did not forget to give the text box the instance name "testbox".

Can anyone please help? I am pulling my brothers hair out, because I'm already bald.

Input Numbers From Cellphone Into Dynamic Text Field By Clicking On Buttons
hey there,

I am constructing a form mailer that has a cellphone skin. To add some functionality I want to let the user click on the numbers of the phone and have the numbers appear into a seperate dynamic text field. (not to be sent via the form) How do I code it where they can click on the numeric button and the number will be added to the field while letting the numbers that were already clicked will remain in the field and not be erased.

thanks

Converting Numbers To Numbers With Numerical Separators
So if I return 10000 as a number in flash, how can I convert it to 10,000?

or, 1000 - 1,000

or 1000000 - 1,000,000

These numbers are generated by a complicated math formula, so they can be ANY number...

Is there no way of doing this in Flash???

[F8] Summation Of Numbers From Input Text & Dynamic Text
i have 2 input texts and 1 dynamic

i want to sum all the three numbers

PHP Code:

    var record:Number = record_grade.text; //input text
    var Total:Number = write + record + wors_grade; //wors_grade is dynamic text
    total_txt.text = Total;
}

this is the result for the input 4 & 5 in input texts & 2 in dynamic

45_level0.wors_grade

"Tweening" Numbers In A Dynamic Text Box
I have a flash movie where displayed numbers change in dynamic text fields as a result of user interaction.

What I would like to do is to make it look as though the numbers count up or down from the initial value to the new one over a set period of time.

So if the initial value displayed is 100 and new value to be displayed is 200 then the text field should look as though the number is counting up over a period of say half a second.

I did a search but it's difficult to know how to phrase my question.

Any ideas?

Actions For Numbers Between Two Numbers
I am trying to make a movie duplicate, and I got it all, EXCEPT, I want it to move over and line up in colums when the screen gets full going down. I started out with _y position = i*25, and that worked, but when it gets to the end of the screen I want it to do this y position= (i-15)*25 and x position = 250; could get that far... the problem is when it gets to the bottom the second time i need to do y position= (i-15)*25 and x position = 250 between 16 and 30, and the next "column" to be between 31 and 45 etc.

on (release) {
setProperty (_root.myMc, _visible, 0);
do {
duplicateMovieClip (MyMc, "MyMc"+i, i);
set (_root.myMc.i, _root.i);
_root["myMC"+i].minus = String(i);
i = i+1;
} while (i<=num);
}

Help Numbers
i have an array full of numbers between 0 and 100. there are about one hundred total numbers, several of which are the number "100" itself. when i try to sort the array using the script

sorted = array.sort()

the sort does not come out correct. all numbers are in ascending order except for the number "100", which i'm assuming it reads in as "10" because it groups the "100's" with the "10's" in ascending order. does anyone know how to make Flash put them at the end behind "99"? thanks!

How Big Can Numbers Be?
Hi,
Perhaps strange question, but currently I am trying to create a secure login script.

I am trying to convert a password into ascii signs, giving it 3 numbers for each letter of the password, so e.g. a password like 'hi'(two characters) would become something like '145178'(6 characters), or 'hello' something like '165134565656934'

Since I want to do some calculations with it, for encryption purposes, I must know how big a number can be in flash?

Is someone has a password like "thisismypassword", that would create 16x3=48 numbers.

anyone an idea?
