People here eat well! I'm probably just having a convenience store sandwich tonight.

Is this AS3?

If so (and that's all I know) then perhaps what you are doing would be tantamount to putting the variable and function into the document class.



public class myDocClass extends...

Just a shot in the dark...

Here is what I am doing in my code (just showing you the parts that are different from yours), and it seems to be working.



public function imageLoad():void
{...

Can a mod please delete this post of mine, or at least the links to images in the post?

I made the mistake of placing those...

From the document class constructor you can only access components or objects that are on the stage in the first frame.

Being a Flash n00b I'm not sure what a good workaround is. Hopefully...

The fact that the player is "aware" of the masking indicates that there has to be a way to get the bounds of the visible area.

I'll try to read everything I can get my hands on regarding dealing...

Darn, my bad, I put them in a protected folder.

Here they are again.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Here is the puzzle piece, showing the visible and invisible areas.

I brought out the invisible areas by pressing Command-B (break apart). I'm not too sure of...

I have imported a bunch (actually, over 1000!) jigsaw puzzle pieces into FLA files from Illustrator CS3.

In many cases the pieces have artifacts outside of their visible area. For example, a...

Thanks a great deal for this info. It's a lifesaver.

A lot of audio samples are distributed as symbols in FLA files and for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to save them externally as MP3...

Wow, reading this thread again after a month I realize how more knowledgeable I am now. :mrt:

Since then my solution has been to put all these animations in separate SWFs, I have a single AS...

No, I can't do anything about the server side.

My client is a huge Japanese company, it's like telling Amazon or Google to change their web service API to accommodate me.


Anywhoo... now for...

I'm a Canadian living in Japan, both countries have decent health insurance.

The Japanese system has a somewhat steep premium that increases with your income, but it functions much better than...

Exactly, you'd think. :)

The server side is my client's, and the people I deal with directly are very removed from it. I'll eventually have to pursue that avenue if I need to, but for now it's...

I am trying to send data to a server via HTTP POST, using the code below.


var myVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
myVars.x = x;
myVars.y = y;
myVars.z = z;

var...

I'm pretty certain there is no mechanism in Actionscript whereby member variables (whether public or private) in a class (including the document class) can be treated as part of a list or structure...

Good idea employing a simpler example, makes it easier to get to the heart of the matter. :)

The problem is that you are defining hello inside the makeClip() function, which makes it a local...

I'm assuming initMainMenu() itself is in some class. Is (was) arrangeMenu() also in that same class? Also, are mainMenuContainer and the menuList array also contained in that class?

If the...

Thanks.

Each piece is an instance of my piece class (which extends MovieClip) so I'll be fading them out separately by progressively changing their alpha property.

This "progressively" is the...

Bump...

Maybe the post was too verbose and scared people off? :) To just ask the question directly:

I want to fade out jigsaw puzzle pieces lying on the stage. What is the standard way to...

I would think the need for this is very common.

In fact I need to do this myself for my current project. There will be a top movie with a greeting, and 90 different puzzles to chose from. When a...

I have been asking a lot of questions that tie into a jigsaw puzzle project I am working on. Here's another :)

The user places the jigsaw puzzle pieces in their correct places. This is all done...

OK, this is mainly what I was concerned about.

Thanks!

I am making a series of jigsaw puzzles for my client.

The user drags the pieces around the stage, places them appropriately, and after completion some animation and sound plays congratulating the...

In the class flash.display.stage there are the properties stageHeight and stageWidth. Is this what you were looking for?
