timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer, false, 0, true);

no need for the counter in the event handler, Timer has a "repeat count"

Re: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
I did it, and you know it works, I put an event listener for the
timer.stop the code is like this:
stop();
import flash.utils.*;
import flash.display.*;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(100, 100);
timer.addEventListener("timer",timedFunction);
var newX:Number = stage.stageWidth;
var newY:Number = stage.stageHeight;
timer.start();
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, timerStop);
function timedFunction(e:TimerEvent):void{
var heart:MovieClip = new Heart();
heart.x = Math.random() * (stage.stageWidth);
heart.y = Math.random()* (stage.stageHeight);
heart.width=heart.width * Math.random();
heart.height=heart.height * Math.random();
addChild(heart);
}
function timerStop(e:TimerEvent):void{
timer.stop();
}
now I'm gonna look in google how to make the size of the heart more
consistent...
now I'm going to be off-the air, going to church.

RE: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
>> The second param limits the number of times it can fire.
True, both methods will work. However, if you use the second repeatCount
parameter, then you won't know when it's finished so you can remove your
listener unless you also add a listener to listen for the timerComplete
event as well - so you'd have two listeners running instead of one and
have to remove both of those listeners. Doesn't matter either way IMO,
just be sure you remove the listeners when it's finished if you don't
need it anymore.

RE: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
http://pastebin.com/m2b549c17
of course i guess you could put the code inside the makeHeart() function
straight in the myTimerTrigger() function.
you could write it without the second argument in new Timer() and just restart
the timer every time it completes and use a variable to increment and check if
it has reached the desired count. this situation might be better if you need to
change "on the fly" how many it will make once the timer has started. i'm not
that up on timers, i tend not to use them much.
hope that solves it for you.

Just keep a variable that keeps count. Increment the "countHearts" or
whatever you call it variable every time the timer function runs. When
you reach 1000, stop the timer, remove the timer listener, set it to
null and you're done.

Re: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
If you want to see the hearts to appear one at a time you need to add them at a
rate slower than your frame rate (give the stage a chance to update). Might
want to use setInterval to add the hearts.

Add each heart to the stage with alpha at 0. Then use a tween engine to fade
the heart in with a delay. Use your "i" variable as the delay in seconds.

Subject: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
Sent: Feb 4, 2010 2:00 PM
Hi Guys, I'm trying to accomplish this:
so far I a mac named heart which is hence a heart, so I'm trying to
make a repetition of it along the screen until it reach the number of
1000
or less, but so far I don't have the effect of its repeating one to
one, instead I have all of them at the same time, there is a way to do
this, maybe I'm losing something if anyone of you knows a site where
that effects is explained for not left brainers as me, let me know.
Gus.
here is my code
stop()
import flash.display.*;
for(var i:Number=0; i<5000; i++){
var heart:MovieClip = new Heart();
heart.width= Math.random()*i *2;
heart.height=Math.random()*i * 2;
heart.x=Math.random()*i *2;
heart.y=Math.random()*i *2;
addChild(heart);
trace(heart);
}
//true is I have a lot of hearts on the screen but I would like those
to start appearing one to one.

Re: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
I've downloaded thanks
on other matters, when you say using a timer, you mean something like
this ( I've have this from a tutorial, mixing with my idea);
something like this?
import flash.utils.*;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000);
timer.addEventListener("timer",TimedFunction);
timer.start();
function timedFuntion(e:TimerEvent):void{
var heart:MovieClip = new Heart();
heart.x = Math.random * stage.stageWidth;
heart.y = Math.random * stage.stageHeight;
}
the question is , how can I stop this?

Re: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
Add each heart to the stage with alpha at 0. Then use a tween engine to fade
the heart in with a delay. Use your "i" variable as the delay in seconds.

RE: [Flashcoders] making a repeating effect
use a Timer() so everytime it elapses it triggers a function to generate a
single heart and add it to the display list in a random place and size.
increment a counter variable every time the function runs and when it gets to
1000 then get it to cancel your timer.
hope that helps.
