Am I Flushing At The Correct Place?

Keeping Movie Clips In Their Correct Place
I’m trying to create a flash activity for dyslexic students. I have two boxes (movie clips ) on the stage. At the top of the stage I have 12 words converted into buttons and then to movie clips. I know how to drag the words around the screen but my difficulty is trying to get the correct words into their respective boxesand staying there. I would like the incorrect words to return to their original position. Help would be much appreciated as I’m trying to do this for a college assignment.

Flushing Variables, Please Help. Thank You.
In a movie I call a variable, TextOne, from a text file. I have an input text field that allows you to change TextOne. Using ASP, the changed information changes the text file where the Variable is stored. On Mac, when I recall the variable, it changes the text. On a PC, TextOne is changed in the text file (the ASP works fine), but the variable doesn't change in the Flash movie. I know why, because it's stored in the cache of the browser. So on a PC you iether have to empty the cache or restart the browser for it to work.

Would you know of a way to flush the browsers memory using FSCommand and javascript, or is there another way I can recall the variable so it successfully changes.

For info: When you press on the Change button, I have 3 frames that loop until the ASP sends a variable that says the change has been successful, in that case I have a loadVariables frame, then it goes back to the original frame to show the changes.

Once again on Mac this works fine. On IE 6 in win 2000, it doesn't. It doesn't work on IE 5.5 iether.

Thanks for any help.

Flushing A MovieClip
Quick flash question.

I'm usin the normal tell target script to control a movie clips behaviour on the main timeline. The action is contained in a button within a movieclip.

That's easy - problem is I want to flush the previous movieclip from the main timeline. You can see this in the swf. The infobox for 1948 will load but the previous infobox for 1946 is still there. And this will continue to happen with all further movieclips unless I can implement a function to flush all other movieclips except for the one I've just called from its relevant button.

removeMovieclip doesn't seem to work or maybe I'm usin the wrong parameters - any ideas?

Reloading/flushing Variables
Hello,

I am wondering how one would flush variables in a movie. I have a scene where I import data, set them into variables and then display them in dynamic text. I then have a button that changes it to a different set of import data. So I am trying to have the output text seamlessly change its values with the click of a button.

I can get it to work if i separate out the frames. Meaning I have frame 1 load the variable, and frame two display the data. The button loads frame 1 with a different value and then frame 2 picks up the new value again. The problem is that when I click the button, there is that 1 frame gap where the text field isn't displayed. Is there a way to do this in code?

If I can elaborate more or clarify more, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you for your time.

Flushing XML Data From Object
Actionscript 2.0 in Flash CS3

I downloaded a simple xml based photo gallery, but I want to categorize the content. Basically the data gets pushed into the object, and when i click a new category button I want it to begin showing the photos only in that category (which is a separate XML file).

The problem I am having is that when i click a new category it doesn't replace the XML data of the object, it appends to it. So it continues to show the original category and then shows the new category after it gets done and then eventually goes back to the original. For example, it starts playing CatOne01.jpg from CatOne.xml, CatOne02, 03 - 10... etc... at the end it goes back to CatOne01

If you click on category 2, it loads CatTwo.xml (I watched it all load up in firebug)and it finishes playing through CatOne CatOne10.jpg and then plays CatTwo01.jpg-CatTwo10.jpg and goes back to CatOne01. I need to find a way to clear out the data before it pushes the new data from the new XML file. I tried flush (as shown below) and nothing changes, i tried delete XML, and that just makes it go blank onclick. All I need is for the values from the first xml to be flushed out before the new values are pushed in each time the user clicks the category buttons, and the new category's images immediately begin playing.

Any suggestions?


Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(1);
_root.techtype.flush();
_root.caps.flush();
_root.photos.flush();

var feed:XML = new XML();
feed.ignoreWhite = true;
feed.onLoad = function(){
var nodes:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(var i=0;i<nodes.length;i++)
{
_root.techtype.push(nodes[i].attributes.id);
_root.caps.push(nodes[i].attributes.desc);
_root.photos.push(nodes[i].attributes.url);
}
_root.mcl.loadClip(photos[0], _root.gallery.photo);
_root.textBar.t.text = caps[0];
_root.buttons.gotoAndStop(techtype[0]);
}
feed.load("images/CatOne.xml");
}
and


Code:
var photos:Array = new Array();
var caps:Array = new Array();
var techtype:Array = new Array();
var current:Number = 0;

this.createEmptyMovieClip("gallery", -99999);
this.gallery.createEmptyMovieClip("bmdc", 1);
this.gallery.createEmptyMovieClip("photo", 2);

this.gallery.bmdc.createEmptyMovieClip("preload", 1);
this.gallery.bmdc.attachBitmap(bmd, 2);

var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var mclL:Object = new Object();
mclL.onLoadComplete = Delegate.create(this, tranny);
mcl.addListener(mclL);

function loadPhoto():Void
{
trace("loading photo...");
bmd.draw(this.gallery.photo);
this.gallery.photo._alpha = 0;
if(current == photos.length-1) current = 0;
else current++;
textbar._rotation = rr;
textBar.t.text = caps[current];

_root.buttons.gotoAndStop(techtype[current]);
}

function preload():Void
{
if(current == photos.length-1) var num = 0;
else var num = current+1;
this.gallery.bmdc.preload.loadMovie(photos[num]);
}

function tranny():Void
{

Flushing A Script When Changing Scenes
I have used a script to produce a looping effect for a static image. The animation is triggered by a mouseover so as you approach one side or the other the image moves that way...stops when the mouse is in the middle of the screen. The script automatically duplicates the image on the right or left side depending on where the mouse is positioned. The problem is when I go to another scene the duplicating effect seems to hang on and doesn't get flushed by changing scenes. I have tried unload movie and whole lot of other things to try and get rid of the issue when switching scenes but nothing seems to work...any help would be appreciated.

Flushing Cached/Stored Streams
Hi,

I have a setup where I have 2 FMS, configured in Edge - Origin
Configuration. I have all the applications on the Origin Server. I have
the edge server configured to route all the requests coming to it to
the Origin server and cache the media in a directory.

When I play the video from a client requesting the Edge server, it is
fetching the video from the origin FMS and saving the media locally in
the cache directory.

The problem occurs when I want to remove or update the media on the
Origin server. i have a script which removes or incase of update put a
new file on the origin server and also clean the cache directory for
the said file. The issue is the file is accessed by large number of
clients and is stored in the buffer of the media server and its still
showing me the same file in the FMS console under streams that the file
is chached and its size. The users can still see the same file which I
have removed.

Could you please suggest a solution for this problem.

Thanks.

Paste In Place Between Movie Clips Is Not In Place Re The Stage
Hi,

I realize that pasting in place between movie clips is referening the registration point in each separate movie clip and that is why they don't align to the stage properly. So is there any way to turn this off?

Can I make my shapes align to the document stage size no matter what movie clip I'm in? Also, can the paste in place be made to paste in place always relative to the stage?

Thanks,
Stan

How To Zoom In And Change From Place To Place
Hello, im fairly new to flash MX 2004 and i am currently working on animations.

Feel free to explain it to me in Actionscript or any other way. Here is my question:

For example. A man is walking in a town. This man then reaches the end of the stage (in your fla. work place), what is a way to show the new backround? make a new keyframe right after with a new background? or is there an easier way.
Another thing, how can i have like im a camera type view, and move around showing diffrent things in the backround (while moving left lets say)

Last thing.. zooming in, how can i do it with a picture backround from the internet?

thanks

Can Anyone Correct This .fla For Me?
I used the flashkit VR sample script to as my base for mouse-triggered movement of an image. But now everytime the mouse reaches an image-border, the image jumps back to the center of the image. What can I do about this? I want the movement to gently bounce in the opposite direction once an image border has been reached. Can anyone correct my flash_VR.fla and mail it to lausbaum@mac.com? I uploaded it to http://nikoflash.ontheweb.nl - I would be very very very thankful to anyone willing to help!

Thanx!!!

What's The Correct Way To Name This...
I need to call something like this...


Code:
_level100.member4._alpha = 100;
However, the "4" in member is the result from an array element so when I do something like this...


Code:
_level100."member" + _root.memkid[d]._alpha = 100;
I get an error: "Expected a field name after '.' operator."

So what is the proper naming convention to make this work. Thanks for any help here.

This Can Be Done... Correct?
I'm going out of my mind trying to rememmber how to fade in dynamic text. I have a swf that gets loaded into my master swf file.

the loaded swf file (lets call it "loaded.swf")cosists of 15 frames total on its root timeline. It has 4 layers (1 being solely for actions). on one of the layers I have placed a MC instance onto frame 2 (frame 1 has a small graphic tween). This MC instance holds a dynamic text field with an instance name of "loadedInfo". This container MC consists of only 1 frame total.My actions layer in this MC ahs the following code:



//-------------------<load CSS>-------------------\
var cssStyles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet ();
cssStyles.load ("styles/styles.css");
cssStyles.onLoad = function (success) {
if (success) {
loadedInfo.styleSheet = cssStyles;
_level0.myLV.load("vars/problemText.txt");
} else {
loadedInfo.text = "There has been an error loading the requested information.";
}
}
//-------------------</load CSS>-------------------\

_level0.myLV.load("vars/problemText.txt");



Back on the parent timeline of loaded.swf i have the container MC (which hold my dynamic text field) do a motion tween with alpa values at 0% going to 100%.


*** PROBLEM *** I cannot seem to get this to work. I know i hhave read this somewhere before, but cant seem to find the help resources for similar problems people have resolved. Any help on this would be a huge pain reliver for this headache of a stump I have hit. Thanks.

Is There A More Correct OOP Way To Do It?
i have 2 classes (Ball & Level) and several instances of each class.
if i need a Ball instance 3 to call level_4. i use this messy code on Ball.as:


Code:
// myLevel is a Number <= number of level instances here 4;
//levelArrayAdd(); is a function on the level_4 instance
var levelHolder:Level = findMyLevelClass(myLevel);
levelHolder.levelArrayAdd(this);
and the function looks like this:

Code:
private function findMyLevelClass(leve:Number):Level {
var findL = levelFinder(leve);
Level(findL);
var levelHolder:Level= _root[findL];
return levelHolder;
}
private function levelFinder(levelIn:Number):String {
var lfind = ("level_"+levelIn);
return lfind;
}
this works, but it seems messy, is there a more correct OOP way to do it?

Please Correct Me
Hi
All
I llok through the forum and found script to move MC with elastic effect
but also want to scale that so i modify the script.


ActionScript Code:
function moveClip(mc,physics0,physics1, xvar, yvar, xscalevar, yscalevar){
        xspeed=yspeed=0;
        xscaleSpeed=yscaleSpeed=0;
        mc.onEnterFrame = function(){
                xspeed = ((xvar-mc._x)*physics0)+(xspeed*physics1);
                yspeed = ((yvar-mc._y)*physics0)+(yspeed*physics1);
                xscaleSpeed = ((xscalevar-mc._width)*physics0)+(xscaleSpeed*physics1);
                yscaleSpeed = ((yscalevar-mc._height)*physics0)+(yscaleSpeed*physics1);
                // add the speed to the current position of the object
                mc._x += xspeed;
                mc._y += yspeed;
                mc._width += xscaleSpeed;
                mc._height += yscaleSpeed;
                if(Math.abs(xspeed && xscaleSpeed)<=0.2 && Math.abs(yspeed && yscaleSpeed)<=0.2){delete mc.onEnterFrame;
                        mc._x=xvar;
                        mc._y=yvar;
                        mc._width=xscalevar;
                        mc._height=yscalevar;
                        }
                       
                       
        }}


But for some reason it works on first click and don't work on second
I mean if i have two button and each of them is told to move same clip to move and scale from on position to other then on first click it works fines but on second click on other button it just jump to mention position without any moving or elastic effect

please correct above script

Thanks

Correct Syntax For 'and'?
hello boardsters...

i have a preloader which is checking to see if an external txt file is loaded in, by checking for a variable named &eof at the end of it- but it also needs to check if a certain frame in the file is loaded.

so, my code so far says:

if (eof == 1) {
gotoAndPlay ("loaded");
}

how do i phrase it correctly? i want to say, "if eof is loaded, AND frame 20 is loaded, go to..." but i'm pretty sure i can't just stick and 'and' in...

a little help anyone?
cheers m'dears

Btn In MC Not Doing The Correct Action
when i place a MC which has a Btn action inside it into one of my scenes and play it and then try to click on it it does not go to the correct location it just starts over that scene and stops (i have a stop action in the scene)

the Btn action is
on (press) {
gotoAndPlay ("Ackee", 1);
}

could the problem be that i can not put a Btn action in a MC and then try to access it.

help me..

Blessings...

Is My Preloader Correct
Can anyone tell me if this is right?
In my preloader the first frame of the first layer is blank. the actionscript looks like this (bLoaded and bTotal are 2 textboxes that say how many bytes are loaded:

var Loadd = getBytesLoaded();
var Total = getBytesTotal();
bLoaded = loadd;
btotal = total;
if (loadd=total) {
gotoAndPlay ("Main", 1);
}
;

the second frame is blank too and it looks like this:
gotoAndPlay(1);
the first frame of the second layer is a keyframe. it and the second frame have the loading movie with the textboxes. is that correct?

And the second question is why isnt my preloader loading. Since my file was small it thought the reason i never saw it was cause its only 2 frames long and it loaded fast, but now to test it out it added a 1 mgb sound file to the 3ed frame of the acutal site but the preloader still doesnt load and it just stops before the 3ed frame to load it. And in the scene box the Preloader scene is before the "Main" scene. if you need me to send you it to furture clarify i can. CAN ANYONE HELP?

Correct Way To Use LoadVars ?
Is this coding incorrect? Do you HAVE to load variables into a seperate LoadVars object? Will it cause errors to load data into the same LoadVars object that called the load? such as this..


Code:
myLoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars.load("http://whatever.asp");
myLoadVars.onLoad = function() {
do whatever;
}

Is there anything wrong with this code?

Correct Syntax ?
Thanks for reading this!

I have an MC on the main timeline named "dance" and another named "dance_control". When "dance_control" is activated it *should* tell "dance" to jump five frames forward from its current keyframe.

_root.dance.gotoAndPlay("_currentframe++5");

Thanks!

Correct This Script
Ive got this script to make moving text

Code:

firstChar = _root.scrollBox.substr(0, 1);
_root.scrollBox += firstChar;
_root.scrollBox = _root.scrollBox.substr(1, _root.scrollBox.length);
}
I want to make the text move slowly... but how? the longer the text is, the faster it goes.

Correct Script?
Hi (Flash 5 question)
I'm trying to ask the timeline in my flash movie to go to a specific frame when you press a button which is inside a graphic which is inside a movie clip within the main movie.

Genevieve Paris was kind enough to direct me to using _root or _level0
to designate the main movie's timeline.

This is the script I've attached to the button:

on (press) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("space", "start");
}


"space" is the name of the scene I want to move to on the main timeline and "start" is the label I've attached to the 1st frame
of that scene.

When I test the movie and press the button, the mouse over is acknowledged but nothing else happens.
Can anyone point me right, and Genevieve if you're reading this,
sorry I couldn't just run with your excellent help!

Signed
Mr. Inovermyhead

Correct Syntax
I'm trying to make this code dynamic.

this.myImageVar = _level0.myMC.myArray3[x];

I want to make the name of the array dynamic so I can reuse the code for other arrays.

Like so:

this.myImageVar = _level0.myMC.myArray + myArrayNum + [x];

What would be the correct format for this?

Thanks in advance

_global.gamename[sortnum] is the array and games/ is the subfolder where the games are. If you need more info just ask.

If Statements Correct?
hey,

i'll just briefly explain wat i'm trying to do:
i'm making an interactive map, where i hav a MC named 'map' and i wish to change the position of the MC with buttons (which is workin at this stage), i am tryin to restrict the movement of the MC within certain boundaries. but as i hav other buttons which scale the MC and therefore change parameters, i need a new set of rules for each scale factor. i am using actionscript 1

this is the code for the 'move right' button, for one of the scale factors (which is working):

{if (/map:scale_target = "100"){
if (/map:x_target>"-350") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="-350") {
/map:x_target = "-350";
}

this was my attempt at including all scale factors:

if (/map:scale_target = "27"){
/map:x_target = "200";
/map:y_target = "275";
}
{if (/map:scale_target = "40"){
if (/map:x_target>"value") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="value") {
/map:x_target = "value";
}
}
}
{if (/map:scale_target = "60"){
if (/map:x_target>"value") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="value") {
/map:x_target = "value";
}
}
}
{if (/map:scale_target = "80"){
if (/map:x_target>"value") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="value") {
/map:x_target = "value";
}
}
}
{if (/map:scale_target = "100"){
if (/map:x_target>"-350") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="-350") {
/map:x_target = "-350";
}
}
}
if (/map:scale_target = "150"){
if (/map:x_target>"value") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="value") {
/map:x_target = "value";
}
}
{if (/map:scale_target = "300"){
if (/map:x_target>"value") {
/map:x_target = getProperty("/map", _x)-_level0:movespeed;
} else if (/map:x_target<="value") {
/map:x_target = "value";
}
}
}

wenever i run this, and press the button in question, the scale factor is set to the bottom statement, and it is run from there.

i am a beginner in actionscript so i dont know if i hav made a silly mistake or something. please help?

thanks

Set Correct Variable For ASP
I create an external textfile data.txt that i load

&productID0=1&image0=Master.jpg&productID1=2&image 1=Revolution.jpg&count=2&

images = new Loadvars();
images.load('data.txt');
images.onLoad = function() {
for (i=0; i loadMovie(images['image'+i], "_root.mc"+[+i]);
}
};

I have two Movieclips called mc0 and mc1. Both they load an picture. What I want is when you click on the picture it opens an url

on (release) {
getURL("http://domain/Main.asp?ProductID="+ProductID[i], "_Blank");
}

It now gives

http://domain/Main.asp?ProductID=

It has to be

http://domain/Main.asp?ProductID=1 for the first picture and http://domain/Main.asp?ProductID=2 for the second picture

Please help me out

Correct Format
Hello all.
what is considered the correct way to format something like this:

code:
button_background._y = getProperty(duplicateButton, _y)-rowCount-button_space;


My concern is the 2 minus vars at the end.
