    conflict involving menubar

    so I've determined that Flash is retarded in some senses... The problem was that the menuBar would not release the focus, so my buttons were not able to execute their on press command properly.( hence the need to double-click on the button, or to move before clicking) I resolved it by adding...

    conflict involving menubar

    In my applet I have a menubar with menus and some buttons... I have found that before I use the menubar my button works every time I click on it, but after I open the menu (even if I don't select anything) I can't click the button more than once. If I move the mouse before I click the button...

    using the curveTo function properly

    I've looked in the flash help for the curveTo function and it isn't very clear on what the control and anchor points are... I'm trying to draw 1/4 of a circle rotating around a single point, and so far my only problem has been in creating the curve properly. right now I have 2 lines at right...

    making classes work

    As it happens, when you get values into functions in an .as file, if you initialize them with, this.value= value; you can refer to them using this.value throughout the entire .as file... this seems to have solved my problem, but thanks

    creating multiple textboxes during runtime

    I am trying to create multiple textfields during runtime using the createTextField method in my actions layer. I've tried to create them all in a loop in one movieclip, but that was only displaying one textfield, so I figured it was a problem with the movieclip... so now I'm trying to create a...

    Selectable submenu checkboxes

    I was also wanting to know if there is a way in which I can make it so that I can only select one item in a menu when it is chosen. When one item is selected and then another is selected afterwards, I would like the first item to no longer be selected. Do I have to make the menubar using the...

    Selectable submenu checkboxes

    I am looking at making submenus that create small checkmarks beside a submenu after you've selected them much like in flash under the Window menu when you select Library there is a checkmark beside it... is there a way i can do this using the addMenuItem() command, or do I have to take a...

    RGB tracing

    Is there a way to find the Red Green Blue value of a pixel on the screen, or is that only possible when in reference to objects? Because I would like to be able to decipher and change a heat map using flash if possible. Thanks

    embedding characters at run-time

    I was just wondering if you can create a text field at run-time and embed characters into that textfield. I'm trying to use the _rotation command and unless I create a textfield before run-time and embed the character sets that I'll allow into it, the text will not show up. Any ideas?

    ActionScript 2.0 scope issue

    Ok, so I have an actionscript file that is not working the way I intend it to. I'm calling a function in the actionscript file from within the actionscript file, however I have to use this.objectRef to refer to a function that should act independently of any object. I'm thinking that I might...

    possibly a bit of a no-brainer

    I'm creating a video clip of a ball that moves, and I'm doing this all with actionscript.(except for the creation of the objects) Essentially, I'm trying to pause my animation in my actionscript file by calling this function: function stopMoving():Void { this.targetMC.onEnterFrame = null...

    Component Command overridden?

    Ok, so I fixed it in a way... I just added a mouselistener onto it and put my code there and it seems to work just fine.

    Component Command overridden?

    I made a custom component that is essentially a start/stop button. The only thing that really changes is the text when it is clicked on. What I'm wondering is if I put the commands: on(press){ _root.particle.startMoving(); } on an instance of this...
