Thanks Flax. Still reading an OOP book & wasn't what the right way was to communicate between the 2 classes. I'll read up on singleton tonight. Thanks again!

Ok, here's a simplified version of what I'm trying to do. I have my CustomEvent class & 2 classes (Alpha & Beta) that just extend the MovieClip class. I just drew 2 movieclip squares on the stage &...

I'll check this tonight. I tried retyping this from memory so I did leave out a couple of things that you mentioned but I know they are in my code. I'll check the rest. Thanks!

Not sure what I'm doing wrong & I've spent the last 8 days trying a billion different examples but can't seem to get it to work. Just to get the "how it works" down, I just want to click a button on...

try this...

addChild(baddie[1]); // or whichever baddie you want to add to the stage [0], [1], etc.

The EnterFrame event is from my custom loader. I have to wait until it's compltely finished or else the ScrollPane that loads it won't load it properly. I had tried Event.COMPLETE, but that didn't...

Thanks...it seems like everytime I post I end up figuring it out right after that. I had to add a removeEventListener inside the mySetter() function & now it seems to work fine.

Can you explain...

I've been trying to fix this for weeks & can't figure it out.

My site loads & lands on the home page which has 2 buttons for "pics1" & "pics2". If I click "pics1" it goes to the frame label & a...

Nevermind...I figured it out finally. I was using currentTarget instead of target to get my info to relay to the Loader.

This should be easy, but...

I'm no expert but you could try this...


function wave() {
for(var i:int = 0; i<10; i++) {

//enemies.attachMovie("enemy"+i, i);
var enemies:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
enimies.name =...

nevermind...I'm just setting the MovieClip.name to the index of the loop which works for me.

I've made a bunch of MovieClips that are loaded dynamically and then loaded into a ScrollPane. I'm able to setup MouseEvents on each MovieClip as they are being made, but I'm not sure how to go from...

Ok, I finally got it to load. I'm very happy right now:-) Just one small thing left to figure out in this code...



import flash.events.Event;
import fl.containers.ScrollPane;

var...

I have a class that loads images from an xml file. I have a boolean that triggers when the loop is complete. From the stage I have a ScrollPane that I set up once the loop is finished like so:

...

Ok, I tried a Timer event & set it to about 3 seconds which then triggered a "make scrollpane" function. That works. So the scrollpane is definitely getting added before my loader is finished...

I would like to find something that covers AS3 and working with databases. Writing to a DB & getting info from the DB.

If this rbCleveland button isn't used on frame 1 then just wait until you get to the frame that it is used to add this script. That should fix it.
rbCleveland.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,...

Ok I'll try this out & report back tomorrow! Thanks!

Sorry if I'm a little slow on this. Where should I pass in an event listener? and for your #2, am I checking to see if "loader" or "sp" is loaded?

it calls the constructor which calls another function & so on. Anyway around this?

right now MyLoader extends MovieClip. Loader is just a movieclip container linked to the MyLoader class. The ScrollPane (sp) loads the MovieClip container.

var loader:MyLoader = new MyLoader("pictures.xml");
sp.source = loader;
sp.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, finished);
function finished(evt:Event):void {
trace("loaded the scrollpane");

}
...

Thanks ddane! I just found this as you posted & it worked also...gracias!

// I already loaded the data before this part I just needed to use a variable to determine the loop length

var...

I guess I should rephrase this. I just need to find out the number of sets that are in the xml file.

Both of the shape effects are very cool.
