Comment on AS2 loop through all the movie clips on the stage by Michael

Try creating the “buttonclicked” as a method where you pass the MC that clicked it into the method. In Pseudo Code:

btn_01_mc.onRelease = buttonclicked(this);

function buttonclicked(theCallingMC:MovieClip)
{
this._name will= “the name of the MC that fired the method”;
}

Would that work for you?

Hi,

are you sure the code above is correct?
For example the line

if (strUserAgent.indexOf(“firefox”) != -1 || (strUserAgent.indexOf(“msie”) != -1 && uint(strUserAgent.substr(strUserAgent.indexOf(“msie”) + 5, 3)) >= 7)) {

has > that mean > .
I ask this because Flash AS3 compiler trow this error:
1067: Assegnazione forzata implicita di un valore del tipo String a un tipo flash.net:URLRequest non correlato.
on the line in wich appears the character ?
var req:URLRequest=url is String?new URLRequest(url):url;

Thanks.

You also can access root like this

Object(root).gotoAndPlay(5);
Object(parent).gotoAndPlay(5);

This work perfectly,

But let say your myMC had an other MovieClip in it called “thisone”… How can you change the x value of it?

MovieClip(this.root).myMC.thisone.x=20; // Fail
MovieClip(this.root.myMC).thisone.x=20; // Fail

Comment on AS2 loop through all the movie clips on the stage by Doug Maynard

This is a great little routine, but the related problem that’s killing me is:

I have a dozen or so movieclips that are all instances of a symbol.

An event occurs – like onRelease and and I’m now in the handler and I have no clue how to tell which movieclip instance got me there.

for example:

btn_01_mc.onRelease = buttonclicked;
btn_02_mc.onRelease = buttonclicked;
btn_03_mc.onRelease = buttonclicked;

All these buttons btn_XX__mc are instances of a movieclip symbol. How do I tell, in my buttonclicked function, which button did the clicking?

In my “really happy world” I would like to pass a parameter to my buttonclicked function from each button, but I can’t see how to do that either.

Any help greatly appreciated.

thanks
Doug

or you can simply go like this:

a movie clip named “trashcan” has a child movie clip called “plasticbag” and if you want to hide the plasticbag you would do this:

trashcan.plasticbag.visible = 0;

and presto! easy as pie (which cannot be said often when it comes to AS3)
