Setting Numbers Before The Decimal Point To 0
Hello all,
I am wonder how one could set the numbers before the decimal point to 0.
For example, if i have 23842348.000389384, then i would get 0.000389384.
As another example, if i have 15264.985653, then i would get 0.985653.
I have tried converting the number to a string, splitting it into an array by the decimal point.
But in that case, if the decimal has got zeroes in front, they get truncated.
Any ideas appreciated
cheers!

Displaying Decimal Numbers? (HELP)
I'd be surprised if there wasn't a way to do this, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet:
I need to be able to diplay the price of something in a dynamic textbox, which should include both dollars and cents. Depending on what you select for "quantity" the price changes dynamically.
The problem is, if the value of the "price" variable is a number and not a string and there are zeros to the right of the decimal, they are simply and understandably dropped (example: 8.50 is displayed as 8.5). Because the value of price is always the product of the BasePrice times the Quantity, it is a number by default, not a string.
Is there an actionscript method that allows you to define the number of places to the right of the decimal there should be for a given variable?
Any suggestions would be appreciate!
Thanks,
Shane:confused:

Whole Numbers Get Decimal Bits Tagged On - Why?
i've had a look at the other posts and not seen one that tackles this, so here goes:
sometimes when you enter a whole number in the height and width properties of an instance they get a decimal bit tagged on (ie 250 becomes 250.3) - why is this? Is it to do with positioning or preferences or something?

How Can I Set A Variable To Have 2 Numbers After The Decimal Maximum?
Hi there!
I've been trying to learn how to delete/eliminate numbers after the decimal in an input text field.
This is the script that I'm using, altough it rounds the number up.
newresult = Math.round(totalimpostos*Math.pow(10, 2))/Math.pow(10, 2);
I need only two numbers after the decimal, the rest of the numbers must be deleted/eliminated...ignored!!
I need a script that DOESN'T round the result number up!!
Can anybody help??

Rounding Numbers Up Or Down On Decimal Integrer
Hi,
I have a challenging issue because Math.ceil and Math.floor rounds numbers to a whole number.
I am creating a dosage calculator and unfortunately I need to follow and produce existing values present on a printed sheet where the rounding does not happened in a straightforward manner. So I need to be able to round the numbers up or down in order to match existing values on the printed data sheet.
In one case, I have 6.251 as a result and I need to round it up to 6.3
In another case, I have 52.508 as a result and I need to round it down to 52.5
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you in advance.

_alpha Fade In And Out Giving Decimal Numbers
I'm trying to do a simple alpaha fade using actionscript. I have the following code in a goto previous frame loop.
loadText._alpha += 5;
trace(loadText._alpha);
When I run the swf the _alpha value is never 5,10,15 etc...
It is always a decimal number (4.83813, 9.983, 14.2324 etc...). Am I missing something? I have tried int() and Math.Round(). None of them kept the _alpha value even when doing +=.

AS2.0 Printing Decimal Point
hello,
as in C++ you may find a keyword called fixed and showpoint. i was wondering if anyone knows what this keywords would be in AS2.0?
these two keywords basically allow to you to set a decimal point in numbers when printing or output.
i know AS2.0 has the floatparcer method, but that is not quite what i am looking for,cuz i want it to stop at the .00 place.

Decimal Point Question

Decimal Point Madness
Just a small thing.
I'm doing alot of AS sprite movements and the velocity values I get are stretching to 14 decimal points.
Does anyone know whether this has any impact on performance? Looking at the sheer number of characters runing down my output window, I think it might when I have lots of sprites moving around.
Then again, if I run a function reducing the number of decimals, then that will probably have more impact on performance! Or would it?
ActionScript Code:
function reduceDec(num):Number {
var myNum:Number = Math.round(num*100)/100;
return myNum;
}

why is it that in debug mode or test mode the decimal points are displayed correctly but in the swf file displayed values do not have the decimal values.
what i am trying to do..
flash file has a draggable slider where the _x value is used to calculate a value which is display on screen using
e.g.
if (int(slider._x+0)>100) {
_root[_name+"slider"] = 30.0;
} else {
bmix = (Math.round((slider._x*10)+1000, 4)/10)+30.0;

_root["bmi"] = (bmix/(_root["yslider"]*_root["yslider"]))
}

Eliminating A Zero Behind A Decimal Point (using Function)
I have a dynamic text box that displays the sum of variables formated in currency form ($77,777.777). Script is in a function.
Sometimes I need to show answers that are in the thousandths.
That's why I have three spaces after the decimal point, but some answers don't need the 3rd place behind the decimal point.
ex: $1,540.890 should display as $1,540.89
How would I eliminate this zero while retaining the thousandths spot for answears that need it?
Here's my code:
function FormatAsDollars (amount, isCents) {
if (isNan(amount)) {
return "0";
}
if (isCents != "isCents") {
amount = amount*1000;
amount = Math.round(amount);
}
amount = String(Math.floor(amount));
if (amount.length == 1) {
return ("0.0"+amount);
}
if (amount.length == 2) {
return ("0."+amount);
}
if (amount.length == 3) {
return ("0."+amount);
}
cents = amount.slice(-3);
amount = amount.substring(0, amount.length-3);
dollars = [];
do {
dollars.push(amount.slice(-3));
amount = amount.substring(0, amount.length-3);
} while (amount.length>3);
if (amount.length) {
dollars.push(amount);
}
return (dollars.join()+"."+cents);
}

Adding A Zero After Decimal Point In Totals?
Hi, new here so sorry if this is a very basic question.
I'm making a money-bank game where coins get dragged across to the piggy-bank and the total is displayed throughout.
My problem is that, if say the amount is 10p, it is displayed as 0.1 rather than 0.10, or 1.1 for £1.10 etc. It would be great if I could get something to recognise those situations - adding 0 to make 0.10 - but not, say, to make 11p into 0.110.
I put in some seriously clunky code which checked if the amount was a specific number (such as 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 etc) and told it to add a 0 on, but I'm sure there must be a simpler way of doing this? Specifically to maybe try and get it to only scan the number AFTER the decimal point and if there's only 1 number there, then add a 0 on afterwards to display the correct amount.
I have a vague feeling it might have something to do with charAt(), but I'm not sure - it's not something I've looked at before. So any suggestions/help would be really appreciated.

Evaluate The Decimal Point Of An Interger
Hey all,
I need to evaluate the decimal point of an interger (bet u wouldn't of guessed that from the title eh?!)
So, im reading in XML for a thumbnail viewer, the viewer displays 5 thumbs per "page" so, i divide the total number of thumbs by 5.
Then i need to evaluate the number if it dosn't have a decimal point (ie, the total divides by 5 exactly) then that is the number of pages i need.
Then if the number does have a decimal 12.2, for instance i need to strip the 2. leaving 12, and then add one so the 2 images left go onto a new page.
Hope you can understand my ramblings.
Cheers in advance. Andy.

Dynamically Setting Transformation Point
Hi,
I have a blank movieclip and actionscript loads a jpeg into it. Right now, when the jpeg is loaded in, the registration and transformation point is located on the top left corner of the image. This seems to be the default.
I'd like to keep the registration point in the top left corner of the image but I want to move the transformation point to the center of the image. I need to do this using actionscript as everything is dynamically created and set.
Is this possible and how do I go about doing this?
If this isn't possible, how do I go about loading a jpeg into a movieclip and setting both the registration and transformation point to dead center?
Please help.
Thanks.

Setting Registration Point Dynamically
Hi peeps,
I was wondering if setting the registration point for display objects was possible during run-time. The documentation calls it "..the origin (0, 0 coordinate) of its coordinate space " but other than setting it in the IDE when creating library items I wouldn't know what property to set (or method to call) .
Also noticed something funny...if you assign a value type other than string(sounds logical at first) to a textField.text property the compiler throws an error. Like :
var nNumber:Number = 0;
var tTextField:TextField = new TextField();
//addChild(tTextField);
//setChildIndex(tTextField, numChildren -1);
tTextField.text = nNumber; // This throws error
"1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String."
tTextField.text = "" + nNumber;
tTextField.text = nNumber + "";
tTextField.text = nNumber.toString(); //These compile just fine
So adding an empty string before or after will compile. It must be I'm missing something or... I just smoke too much these days. I may be high right now...

Setting The Starting Point Of A Sliding Menubar
hi everyone>
i'm building a site with a horizontal sliding menu not unlike the one shown in the "add thumbnails" tutorial. the one that i'm building involves a row of generated movieclips to be placed inside a parent called "displayarea", and "displayarea" needs to line up starting at a point in the middle (for now, it's hard-coded as the negative _x value of a generated movieclip called "menu15" --see below).
my problem is: the way it's displayed using the code below, when the user mouses out of the area that activates the scrolling, the movie clip "displayarea" always snaps back to the original _x position.
how can i set the starting _x position of "displayarea", and tell the code to only use it as a starting point, and the scrolling will take over once the clip has loaded?
i've attached the swf so you can have a look at the problem.
<--this code is attached to the first frame of the timeline that contains "displayarea"-->
alignPoint = getProperty(displayarea.menu15, _x);
reelPos = displayarea._x;
displayarea._x = -alignPoint;
if (_ymouse>-150) {
if (_ymouse<0) {
if (_xmouse<-400) {
if (displayarea.hitTest (hitLeft)) {
reelSpeed = (_xmouse-center)/15;
reelPos = Math.round (reelPos-reelSpeed);
displayarea._x = reelPos;
}
}
else if (_xmouse>400) {
if (displayarea.hitTest (hitRight)) {
reelSpeed = (_xmouse-center)/15;
reelPos = Math.round (reelPos-reelSpeed);
displayarea._x = reelPos;
}
}
}
}
<--end code-->
thanks in advance for your help!
