Flash :: Who Wants To Help Me? - Join Tha Four Corners

Everybody Join In
Hey yall just curious about having multiple dynamic text fields through layers of Flash site and having some buttons in Main.Swf that on users choice it would change text from english to spanish, german ect...through out the site.

What would be the easiest way to do it? I have thought of using XML and having each dynamic field pull from there and on user click would change loading from XML and each button would cycle through designated text. Or maybe use a database but not really necessary I guess. Any ideas?
Thanks

MyArray.join(HEX HERE)
I wan to know if there is a way for me to enter a hex value for an untypable(?) char.

My problem is this.

I need to split an array of hex values into two arrays,
so the array :

40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,4A,4B,4C,4D,4E,4F

would become two arrays like this
4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F

I was thinking to turn the array into a string, this presents a problem as the join function places a char between the eliments of the array, so I end up with this.

40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,4A,4B,4C,4D,4E,4F

as the comma(, 0x2C) is an acceptable char for input to the array I dont want to have to fiur out what is and what isent later, so If I replace the comma with another char I can then reject that char as the arrays are proceced.

What I want to end up with is this

400x127420x127430x127440x127450x127460x127470x1274 80x12749

but with the char inplace of 0x127 so that I can then turn the strinf in to an array in to three
any ideas?

Two New Clips, Join Together As One MC?
hi guys... I am creating two new movie clips and need them to join as one.... here's the code I have so far...

Code:
note_mc.duplicateMovieClip("myNote_" + x + "_mc", x);
_root.createTextField("myText_" + y + "_mc",x,xpos,ypos,toolbar.postText_mc._width,toolbar.postText_mc._height);
I then have some functions which when the user clicks on the above "note" it can be dragged.. that's working ok - but it's leaving the text behind.

I was thinking that I could either create a new movieclip and put them both inside it? Then refer to that when I want it to be dragged?

Thanks for any help!!

Join The Dots
Hi all,

I'm trying to produce a movie where a line draws between the dots, like a join the dots game. At the moment I'm using a loop with API which works fine but you carn't see the line drawing. What a really need is way to draw the line between the dots without using tweens, cos I got a lot of them to do.

Code:
var theDepth = 1;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("line_mc", theDepth);
line_mc.lineStyle(0, 0x000000, 70);
line_mc.moveTo(eval("dc"+theDepth+"_mc")._x, eval("dc"+theDepth+"_mc")._y);
for (i=theDepth; i<=5; i++) {
line_mc.lineTo(eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._x, eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._y);
}

Array.join
I have an array that looks like this:
var myArray:Array = [{name:"Peter", email:"peter@web.com"}, {name:"Mark", email:"mark@web.com"}];

I would like to join the array to achieve this result:
var namesJoined:String = "Peter|Mark";
var emailsJoined:String = "peter@web.com|mark@web.com";

As a start I have tried this
trace(myArray.join("|"));
which returns
[object Object]|[object Object]

Is there an easy way to do this without a foor loop? Can someone please help me? Thanks!

Join The Dots
Hi all,

I'm trying to write some code to join dots on images that appear in a movie.

The images are MovieClips that contain dots that are also MovieClips. What I wanted to do is have a line that will connect the dots.

I have a prototype at the start of the movie, which is called when on eof the images appears

The problem is I carn't address the dot MovieClips within the image MovieClip.

Hope you can understand and someone can help.

ActionScript Code:
MovieClip.prototype.JoinDots = function(num, i) {
this.i = i;
this.num = num;
this.line = this.createEmptyMovieClip("line_mc", i);
this.line.lineStyle(0, 0x000000, 70);
this.line.moveTo(eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._x, eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._y);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
i++;
this.line.lineTo(eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._x, eval("dc"+i+"_mc")._y);
if (i == num) {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};

Corners
Hey,

I've made a small thing in fireworx, a little arrow in a box. Now i imported that in flash mx, and put it on the scene, but i don't see the botom line of the box

So i thought, maybe i can draw this in flash itself, i started ... but i don't know how to get the corners right. They never are in 90° angle. You gotta really zoom in to see it ... cuz it's kinda small.
If you use the hairline, it's fine, but the line is to small.

I added the fla file so you could see for yourself ...

Hope you understand what i mean and somebody can help me

Split And Join Porblem
Hi

Is there any other way to write this?

on (release) {

myText=myText.split("#"+"0").join("Number");
myText=myText.split("#"+"1").join("Number");
myText=myText.split("#"+"2").join("Number");
myText=myText.split("#"+"3").join("Number");
myText=myText.split("#"+"4").join("Number");
}

maybe something like mmm

myArray = [0,1,2,3,4];

on (release) {

myText=myText.split("#"+ myArray).join("Number");

}

Thanks in advance

Join Split Question
Hi

Do you know how to use join split for only last 2 characters instead of whole text field?!
I mean can you really tell split to only search and replace last 2 letters? is there any other way to search and replace last 2 or more chars? actually I want to use it for an input text and I want it to only search an replace last wrong words not whole the text again and again you know?.join split can not afford it specially if you put it into enterFrame

Split(), Join() Position
Hi everybody,
is there anyway to return the position of the spilt() or join() commands in a string?
For example:

I have this string:

my_string = "My name are Dimi"

And i split "are" and join "is":

my_string = my_string.split("are").join("is")

Is there anyway to return the position of the "are"? (in this example to return 9)

Join Me In Creating A New Site
www.retoxified.com (take note the animations and games uploaded to the site are crappy stuff I did years ago)

this is a flash site I made a while back and it's doing okay, but I'm looking for some people that can do really good html, php, and other languages to make my site a flash html and php mix, this combination results in a succesful website.

so I'm asking for anyone with any skill to join me in creating a new site named ReTox (the name has no meaning it just sounds cool) and to be a partial owner, depending on how many people join the band wagon.

I'm open to all your ideas for the layout and catergories but the main focus of it will be humorous entertainment

the catergories so far will be

animation-games-video-pictures-audio-comics-forum-contact-wallpaper-comics-quotes-artwork

other things like fan mail, hate mail, aim icons can all be arranged.

also take note I have 5 flash animators and flash programmers but if u have ideas and think u can help even more with the flash, even though we mainly want php and html experts, you can join us too.

PLEASE reply and help me start an awesome and popular site.

Movie Collaboration - Please Join
Here's the deal: I'm a fan of Flash and Newgrounds, and I want to get into making movies and games sooner or later, so I thought I'd TRY to voice my ideas here, and maybe get a movie going with you Flashkit users.

Movie Details:
Name- "The Shadows"
Style- American anime, guns and swords
Time- Present to not too distant future
Parts Needed- Artist or two, animator, voice actors (optional).
Setting- Fictional but realistic country

Storyline:
The Shadows are a family. Father and son. When the president of the country is assassinated, forcing a new leader into place, new laws are set. Some rebel against the government, and form protest riots. The mother and daughter of the Shadow family died in one of these riots. That's where the Shadows come in.

The Shadows are skilled silent assassins, modern day american ninjas, if you will. They have worked for the government their whole life, and are highly payed to restore the country's peaceful communities and the organised government.

When on a mission together, the father is caught. The son watches from the shadows the rebels behead his father, therefore making him the main character. [end of episode one]

I really want to get better at Flash and debut into the Flash movie world with a good one.

Anyone in?? NOTE: The storyline is brief and not definate. Changes may be made.

Join Strings Together In Loop
this should be easy but cannot get it to work:

code: var newXML;

for(var i = 0; i < oldXML.length; i++) {
// join child nodes together in string var called newXML
newXML = newXML + myXML.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes[i] ;
}
trace(newXML);

Randomly Join Objects
Thanks in advance

I want to add different objects to a background each time one presses a button. I want it to happen, one at a time. - There will be several buttons ordering to do so.
Should i make different movieclips for each objects?
Can anyone help with some code example

Join Entries In An Array: D,a,d,k,o, To Da,d,ko
How do I join entries in an array?

Code:
var myArray:Array = Array("d", "a", "d", " ", "k", "o", "k", "r", "d", "d", "a", "d", "d", "a", "d");
I want to join
d and a
also
k and o

The new array would look like this.

Code:
var myArray:Array = Array("da", "d", " ", "ko", "k", "r", "d", "da", "d", "da", "d");

Array Join Does Not Work
this is what works:
a = new Array(1,2,3,4,5,6);
ab_txt.text = a.join("
");

while, this does not:
n = file_name;
myArray = new Array(n);
for(i=0; i< myArray.length; i++){
file_txt.text = "filename = " + myArray.join("
");
}
the file names get displayed separated by commas, even though i have used the same .join("
") thing. the filenames get displayed so the loop is ok ( as far as i think).

Is It Possible To Join NewClip Attachments
i'm making a catch game such as can be found at http://www.mathplayground.com/multiples.html
the code i'm using right now has drop1 falling as i want it to, and drop2 does appear, but it will not repeat, as the coding suggests it should. is there a way to put the newClip in one section, or link it together, so that both drop1 and drop2 will continue to fall, at the same interval.
here is the coding i'm using

Code:
StageWidth = 550;
StageHeight = 400;
var num:Number;
function moveStuff() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x -= this.speed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this._x += this.speed;
}
if (this._x>StageWidth+(this._width/2)) {
this._x = 0-(this._width/2);
}
if (this._x<0-(this._width/2)) {
this._x = StageWidth+(this._width/2);
}
if (this._y>StageHeight+(this._height/2)) {
this._y = 0-(this._height/2);
}
if (this._y<0-(this._height/2)) {
this._y = StageHeight+(this._height/2);
}
}
girl_mc.speed = 13;
girl_mc.onEnterFrame = moveStuff;
watchKeyBoard = new Object();
watchKeyBoard.onKeyDown = function() {
trace("a key is pressed. the key that is pressed is "+Key.getAscii());
};
Key.addListener(watchKeyBoard);
/*found at http://www.swinburne.edu.au/design/tutorials/P-flash/T-Actionscripting-for-games/ID-41/#five*/

depth = 0;
function makeNewClip() {
clearInterval(ranID)
ranID=setInterval(makeNewClip, ran)
newClip = _root.attachMovie('drop1', 'drop1'+depth, depth++);
newClip._x = Math.random()*490;
newClip._y = -40;
newClip.speed = 3;
newClip.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._y += this.speed;

};

}
makeNewClip();
setInterval(makeNewClip,5000);

depth = 0;
clearInterval(ranID)
ranID=setInterval(makeNewClip, ran)
newClip = _root.attachMovie('drop2', 'drop2'+depth, depth++);
newClip._x = Math.random()*490;
newClip._y = -40;
newClip.speed = 3;
newClip.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._y += this.speed;

};
i need to get drop2 to repeat, and after that i will be adding in a drop3, drop4, drop5, drop6, drop7 etc so that there is a whole lot falling down from the top of the screen.
i DID have it repeating at some stage, but i can't for the life of me get it back to working again.........
any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
this is a project due day after tomorrow.
thanks =S

Why Can't I Join Lines? Aaaargh
I'm not really new to Flash but have just developed a very frustrating new problem. When drawing with the pencil tool every time I take the pencil off the wacom tablet I get a new part of a shape, defined by a colored square when I select it. For some reason that I cannot understand or find the solution to, I am unable to join the ends of these lines anymore to make one shape that I can then fill. It's as if each part of my shape is on its own layer (I've double checked and they are in fact all on the same layer). Using the 'fill gaps' aspect of the paint bucket doesn't help either.
Can someone help me? This is so frustrating!

Join Strings Together In Loop

Join Variables To Return A Third?
I've got 3 variables called pSize1 = 15, pSize2 = 16, pSize3 = 17. I have some radio buttons that have the data: 1, 2, 3. depending on what radio button is pressed, I need to trace the data in either pSize1, pSize2, or pSize3.

So, if they user presses the first radio button, it returns data 1, how can I combine that with "pSize" to return 15, and not "pSize1".

What i have tried so far:

Code:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.click = function(eventObj:Object):Void {
thisSize = eventObj.target.selectedRadio.data
trace("pSize"+thisSize)
};

sizeGroup.addEventListener("click",listenerObject);
that returns "pSize1" not 15.

Where have i gone so horribly wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Join The Dots Game
I want to create a join the dots game where an user joins specific dots together to complete a picture.
At the moment I have the complete picture and an incomplete picture with numbered dots. Each dot is an instance of the mc Dots.
I need some ideas on how to implement the game.
My basic idea is this:
The user clicks on a dot and draws a line to another dot (what draw functions has flash got that the user can use?).
It's easy enough for Flash to know which dot was under the mouse pointer when the mouse was pressed and released, so i'd like to write a function that draws a line between the dots.
OR the user can draw any old line which flash draws as they drag the mouse, with flash only noting that two dots hav been linked up.
Once all dots have been linked up correctly, then the complete picture is shown.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Radius Corners
Hello Peoples, I am new to this forum and flash in general. My site is http://www.mosaictilecreations.com/. I recently built this site and a friend in Calgary did the animation. The one thing I would like to do is place radius corners on the Mosaic Sea Animation. I dunno, somehow the sharp corners just seem a little harsh. Anyway, if anyone can help me accomplish this I'd be grateful. Cheers, scubes

[F8] Rounding The Corners
i have this quick function to make a box with a green-ish background:

Code:
function makeBox(){
newsBox = imageBox.createEmptyMovieClip("newsBox"+X, imageBox.getNextHighestDepth());
newsBox.init();
//news bg******************************
newsBg = newsBox.createEmptyMovieClip("newsBg", newsBox.getNextHighestDepth());
var newsBm:BitmapData= new BitmapData(300,12,false,0xbcff39);
newsBg.attachBitmap(newsBm, 1);

}
works fine, but is there a way to make the corners rounded, rather than "right angles". Thanks
