[Flashcoders] Random distribution
Hi all, Previously I recalled coming across a blog which talks about using a different approach in randomizing the location of items (e.g. movieclips). This approach uses angular (radian) instead of the conventional x and y. However, I cannot recall which blog, it would be great if someone could refer me to the url. Thx!

Re: [Flashcoders] enable all movieclips to broadcast their onRelease event
could you provide more detail on what you want to achieve? the following would make a Class object receive all MovieClip onRelease events. and would do so for a timeline with slightly modified code. not sure this is what you mean though? public function initOnRelease ( Void ) : Void { var listener = this ; MovieClip.prototype.onRelease = function ( ) { listener.sayHello ( ) ; } ; } public function sayHello ( Void ) : Void { trace ( HELLO ) ; } cheers, Alisdair On 24 Nov 2005, at 19:25, Aaron Haines wrote: Is this possible..?

Re: [Flashcoders] Dynamic variables in as3
for(var i:Number =0;i acRate; i++){ var ['p'+i]:MovieClip = new MovieClip() this['p'+i].x = i*10 this['p'+i].y = i*10 } Which doesn't work of course. Does anybody have a work around for this, or is it no longer possible to create undeclared variables at run time. The only reason I can think of that that wouldn't work is that you can't declare dynamic variables. So you could do it like this: for(var i:Number =0;i acRate; i++){ this['p'+i] = new MovieClip(); this['p'+i].x = i*10; this['p'+i].y = i*10; } But that's not really good OOP. What you should do instead is build an array of references to your movie clips, like this: var clips:Array = new Array(); for(var i:Number =0;i acRate; i++){ clips[i] = new MovieClip(); clips[i].x = i*10; clips[i].y = i*10; } ryanm ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] enable all movieclips to broadcast theironRelease event
Hi Alisdair I want to create a class which would be able to detect which movieclip or button has been clicked whenever any movieclip or button is clicked. I want this class to exist independently of any onRelease functions which have been assigned directly to movieclip instances. i.e. I don't want to have to include a call to my class in the onRelease function of every movieclip instance - I just want my class to listen for any onRelease events, and then do some action depending on which clip was clicked. The idea is that I could then include this class in movies which have already been created without having to go back through and add a call to my class into every button and movieclip onRelease function. If I set the MovieClip.prototype.onRelease as you suggest this would presumably then be overwritten by the direct assignment of the onRelease to the movieclip instance. I can make all movieclips broadcasters by using AsBroadcaster on the MovieClip.prototype, but this doesn't make them automatically broadcast the onRelease event. I was wondering if there was a way to do this with EventDispatcher or something similar..?

RE: [Flashcoders] Flvs fail to stream on an older pc
Thanks to everyone who replied, The problem seems to have been solved - at least for now... I had asked the client yesterday to try and reburn the cd-rom from her mac, to see if maybe something had gone wrong with the burning process. As I mentioned, the last cd-rom I sent her was working fine. She hadn't come back to me about that, and even sent me an annoyed email that had no mention of it. So I was fairly sure that failed. So Just now I called her to get some more info and talk her through a test that would see if Robin's theory about the swfs was the cause of the problem (although I do check for initialization, something might have slipped through on a slower system)...

For example I once was working on a CD where loaded a swf with a nested swf/flv player in my root swf. After loading the swf file I sent the video url to the loaded swf file so that the nested component in the swf could play it. This all worked fine when I tested it on my computer and on another computer. However it didn't work on some computers even if they had fast processors. Eventually I found out that it was the CD-ROM drive. Some drives were just a bit too slow. So the swf file which contained the video player component was not loaded fast enough.

Whenever you use multiple swf files in your CD-ROM project and you want them to communicate between each other make sure that loaded swf file is initialized properly before you send anything. A bulletproof way to do this is to have interval function in your main movie which checks the value of a variable in your loaded swf. e.g: // load the swf swfHolderMc.loadMovie(someSwf.swf); intervalId = setInterval(this, executeCallback, 200); function executeCallback() { If (swfHolderMc.getInicialized())// obviously you need a //getInicialized function in the swf file which is loaded { // do something in the loaded swf clearInterval(intervalId); } } Hope this helps Robin However Most of the times it is a faulty driver or some wired configuration.

I have a flash 7 file which contains two channels each containing MC's that I am setting the dynamic text values from Director and once set with the correct values I wish for them to animate onto the flash stage. Thing is, if I create a new key frame to do a tween with, that means a new instance of the MCs are created, hence loosing all the data set dynamically from within Director! Can't figure out how I should be doing this to keep the same instance throughout a tweened animation??? Thanks in advance.
