Hello Flashcoders,
I've altered my code from my previous post so any help for this problem will be
appreciated.
I'm loading swf files using createEmptyMovieClip and loadClip. I figured out
that I couldn't change the text field because it wasn't loaded yet. I've since
added a variable to the empty movieClip (this[tempName].labelText) and put in a
listener on the loader.
My problem now is I can't find the correct code to access that variable and
change the textfield from within the listener. When the swf is on the stage the
textfield says 'undefined' as exspected. I need it to say 'One Player' or 'Two
Player'.
XML, code and output is below. Thanks in advance,
Rich
XML
====================================================
<selectBtns btnSWF="selectBtn.swf">
<btn id="1" label="One Player" x="150" y="450" w="200" h="50" />
<btn id="2" label="Two Player" x="450" y="450" w="200" h="50" />
</selectBtns>
code
====================================================
selectBtnSWF = tempNodes[i].attributes.btnSWF;
trace("selectBtnSWF = "+ selectBtnSWF);
trace("selectBtns: tempNodes[i].childNodes.length = "+
tempNodes[i].childNodes.length + newline);
for(k=0;k<tempNodes[i].childNodes.length;k++){
var mcBtnLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var loadListener:Object = new Object();
loadListener.onLoadInit = function(movieClip){
trace("Button init | Name = "+ movieClip._name);
movieClip.btnLabel.text = movieClip.labelText;
}
mcBtnLoader.addListener(loadListener);
tempBtnName = "selectBtn_"+k;
somedepth = _root.getNextHighestDepth();
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(tempBtnName, somedepth);
trace("tempNodes[i].childNodes[k].attributes.x =
"+tempNodes[i].childNodes[k].attributes.x);
this[tempBtnName]._x = tempNodes[i].childNodes[k].attributes.x;
this[tempBtnName]._y = tempNodes[i].childNodes[k].attributes.y;
this[tempBtnName].labelText=
tempNodes[i].childNodes[k].attributes.label;
trace("this[tempBtnName].labelText= "+ this[tempBtnName].labelText);
mcBtnLoader.loadClip("images/"+selectBtnSWF, tempBtnName);
trace("this[tempBtnName].btnLabel.text = "+
this[tempBtnName].btnLabel.text);
}
ouput
=========================================
selectBtnSWF = selectBtn2.swf
selectBtns: tempNodes[i].childNodes.length = 2
this[tempBtnName].btnLabel = One Player
this[tempBtnName].btnLabel.text = undefined
this[tempBtnName].btnLabel = Two Player
this[tempBtnName].btnLabel.text = undefined
Button init | Name = selectBtn_0
Button init | Name = selectBtn_1
