Help creating a path using variables.

HI
I;m trying to create a path to a movievclip created with
attachMovie. I need tio create the path using variable:
_root.var1.var2.gotoAndPlay("something");
How can I tell flash that var1, var2, etc are variables and
not a relative path?
Tks,

Hello Tks,
depending where the movieclip is that you are trying
communicate with you need to use either other movieclips or you
will need to use _parent.
var gong:MovieClip;
var bong:MovieClip;
var song:MovieClip;
this.attachMovie("gong".....
gong.attachMovie("bong"....
bong.attachMovie("song"...
to access song from the timeline in which all these movie
clips were attached
this.gong.bong.song.variable
from song to the timeline in which all movie clips were
attached
song._parent._parent._parent.variable
Hope this helps..

  • Help! Problem with using variables/objects

    I am writing a method that will create a new object based on a class. Obviously, the following code works:
    Line victoria = new Line("Test");
    But now I want to be able to put any string I like where victoria is. Something along the lines of:
    public void createNewObject(String newObjectName)
    Line newObjectName = new Line("Test");
    But this won't work because it says I have already named newObjectName.
    How can I get it use the value contained WITHIN the string rather than the string itself?
    Thank you in advance,
    G

    Yes. The method signature declares a variable
    newObjectName of type String whose scope is the entire
    method. So you can't declare another variable with the
    same name within the method, as you attempt to do. I
    think you want to replace Line newObjectName =
    new Line("Test"); with Line newObject =
    new Line(newObjectName);Then you'll need to
    think about how to make the new object available to
    the code which called the method...YATArchivist, thank you for the reply but I don't think it solves the problem.
    Your solutions passed the string into the creation of the object but the object name is still static. This mean that if I create another object it will still have the name newObjectName.
    Maybe I am approaching the problem incorrectly. Imagine I had a class called Book. If I had a library program and wanted to create more than one book based on the class Book, how could I do it?
    Please help me!!!
    Thank you,

  • Please help on how to use variables inside a method call

    Hello guys,
    How's it goin?
    Pardon me if you find my question silly, but I am relatively
    new in ActionScript 2.0 programming.
    I have here a simple problem. It seems I can't use a variable
    inside a method call of an object. Here's the code. Please note of
    the authParams string variable below.
    import AkamaiConnection;
    import mx.services.WebService;
    var GeneratedToken:String;
    var authParams:String;
    // Create a Web Service object
    var TokGenService:WebService = new WebService("
    http://webservice.asmx?wsdl");
    // Call the web service method
    var myToken:Object = TokGenService.GenerateToken();
    // Create an AkamaiConnection object
    var connection:AkamaiConnection = new AkamaiConnection();
    connection.addEventListener("onConnect", this);
    connection.addEventListener("onError", this);
    // If you get a result from the web service, save the result
    in a variable
    myToken.onResult = function(result)
    // If you get a result from the web service, save the result
    in a variable
    myToken.onResult = function(result)
    GeneratedToken = result;
    authParams = GeneratedToken +
    "&aifp=v001&slist=37414/test/Streaming/";
    //Call the Connect method of the AkamaiConnection class
    connection.connect("cp37414.edgefcs.net/ondemand",true,true,5,true,false,"443","rtmpt",
    authParams);
    But then, if I use a hard-coded string value in lieu of the
    variable, the method call works!
    connection.connect("cp37414.edgefcs.net/ondemand",true,true,5,true,false,"443","rtmpt",
    "testStringvalue");
    I don't know what I'm missing or what I'm doing wrong... Can
    somebody help me please? I am using a 30-day trial version of Adobe
    Flash CS3. Also, when I Trace output the variables, the values are
    there. It just that they can't be read or recognize inside the
    method call. Is this a ActionScript limitation?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    The result param is a returned, “Decoded ActionScript
    object version of the XML”. I am not exactly sure what that
    means but I have had issues of returned XML values and their
    datatype. When I did have these issues I had to cast or convert
    into the desired datatype. Try one of the following, assuming the
    problem is related to the code that you have bolded.
    GeneratedToken = result.toString();
    authParams = GeneratedToken +
    "&aifp=v001&slist=37414/test/Streaming/";
    Or
    GeneratedToken = String(result);
    authParams = GeneratedToken +
    "&aifp=v001&slist=37414/test/Streaming/";
    Or
    GeneratedToken = result.toString();
    authParams = String(GeneratedToken +
    "&aifp=v001&slist=37414/test/Streaming/");

  • Create theme path using Command prompt & telnet?

    Hey guys I want my SMP to display linksheets. I have the latest firmware installed. I have been successfully running GBBM off of a usb (using the latest wdlxtv firmware) & my linksheets display fine. However, some films stutter & pause when using wdlxtv (they play fine when I unplug the usb stick & run the official firmware). So my aim is to change the theme path so that GBBM is booted from my usb stick & I can display linksheets but I will be using the official firmware. I have been following this guide found on the forum: http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-TV-Live-Streaming/Getting-around-the-30MB-theme-limit-and-repointing-the-SMP-to/td-p/631463 After attempting to set the theme path I reboot my SMP but it is still at the default theme.
    When I look under 'appearance', it states my theme path that I entered in Command Prompt.
    I think that I may be entering the theme path slightly wrong.
    My USb is identified as: /tmp/media/usb/USB210/4489-F8EA
    The folder that I created on my USB was: wdtv_​themes
    So I assumed my theme path would be: config_tool -c THEME_PATH=/tmp/media/usb/USB210/4489-F8EA.wdtv_​themes
    However, this doesn't seem to work.
    Any help?  

    this is all over my head, but KAD79 is about the only person that could help you with this but i did notice one thing, the path is missing a missing forward slash ?   bird06 wrote:

  • Help creating clipping path???

    I have a wreath I would like to use as a picture frame and have Adopt Photoshop Elements 6 ... how can I create a clipping path to make this possible? Thanks. Gary.

    Well, I can make the frame within photoshop and make it blank, but I want to use this as the frame for several pictures, so I want to be able to have the center cut out and import into Quark and put the pictures below this in Quark. I don't want to put the pictures in in Photoshop. I was also unable to select the simplify option in photoshop elements but somehow got the inside cleared out. How can I make a clipping path in photoshop elements or how can I make this work so that I can put my picture behind the frame in Quark. Thanks for your help.

  • Need help creating a form using show/hide functionality

    I'm tring to add javascript to a drop down box so that, when a selection has been made in the drop down box, it will display a image/button. I need the drop down box to have a default value that will hide all images/buttons.
    The list in the drop down box is going to be a list of products e.g. product A, B, C, and the default value to be "please select a product..."
    Can this be done in Acrobat Pro X? If so can someone point me in the right direction?
    Cheers

    Your site is running on an Apache server, so it definitely doesn't support ASP. Apache frequently supports PHP, but I couldn't tell from the headers sent by your server whether it's supported on your site.
    I suggest that you contact BT Business support to see if they offer a formmail script. Most hosting companies do. The support pages should describe how to set it up.

  • Path: Using measuredWidth (or similar)?

    Hello all,
    I'm using a spark.primitives.Path instance to create an "image" with a couple of nice curves etc in it (in this particular instance I'm skinning the ScrollBarUpButton). What I would like to do is use this path to create a background for the button, which is easy enough with skinning (loving it's flexibility) but I'm not sure how I can create the path using relative dimensions. The background should cover up to measuredWidth and measuredHeight - is this possible using Path? I can only find in the documentation that you can specify left and right coordinates, so I suspect not, but equally, I'm assuming that there might be a way of achieving what I am looking for that I'm not aware of.
    I could of course do it in AS3 with a Sprite, but if possible, it would be create to use MXML as I find it somewhat easier for fills etc.
    Many thanks,
    Allan

    I'm not sure if it will help in your use case, but you might want to play around with the resizeMode property on Group.  For example:
    <s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
        <s:Group width="100%" height="100%" resizeMode="scale">
            <s:Path data="M 0 0 L 20 20 L 0 20 Z">
                <s:fill>
                    <s:SolidColor color="red" />
                </s:fill>
            </s:Path>
        </s:Group>
    </s:Application>
    Here I draw a Path with absolute values and and then set resizeMode="scale" on the Group to have the Group scale its content to its size.

  • FTPs connection error:When using Variable substitution for Directory path

    Hi
    I am transferring data from BI to xml file via PI: Here a Client proxy from BI sends the data to PI and the PI FTPs the XML file to a remote location. For FTP I am using FTPs SSL connection.
    It was working fine untill I used Variable susbstitution to determine Directory path dynamically. I am using this because different xml files are intended to goto the different locations.
    I did the variable substitution like this:
    Target Message Structure:
    ---> Target Directory: %var1%
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
      <Header>
         <Directory>/Customer</Directory>
    </Header>
    <Detail>
    </Detail>
       </MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
    And in the variable substitution I am doing it this way
    payload:MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE,1,Header,1,Directory,1
    And the error I am getting is:
    Attempt to process file failed with Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: iaik.security.ssl.SSLException: Peer sent alert: Alert Fatal: handshake failure

    Does anybody have some Idea of this ??
    Regards
    Naina

    Hi,
    I guess the problem is not with Variable Substitution..
    Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool:
    So its a connection problem..
    Also check the option Disable Security check and try again...
    Try to check again if the interface is executing properly without Variable substitution and let us know..

  • Help with updating PATH variable

    I am using a T42 with WinXp pro
    I installed JAVA SDK then I tried to update my cmd window path permanently so that I don't have to typed in the full path everytime, so I followed the description:
    Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, and XP - To set the PATH permanently:
    Choose Start, Settings, Control Panel, and double-click System. On Microsoft Windows NT, select the Environment tab; on Microsoft Windows 2000 select the Advanced tab and then Environment Variables. Look for "Path" in the User Variables and System Variables. If you're not sure where to add the path, add it to the right end of the "Path" in the User Variables. A typical value for PATH is:
    C:\j2sdk1.4.2_<version>\bin
    Capitalization doesn't matter. Click "Set", "OK" or "Apply".
    The PATH can be a series of directories separated by semi-colons (;). Microsoft Windows looks for programs in the PATH directories in order, from left to right. You should only have one bin directory for a Java SDK in the path at a time (those following the first are ignored), so if one is already present, you can update it to j2sdk1.4.2_<version>\bin.
    The new path takes effect in each new Command Prompt window you open after setting the PATH variable.
    The wired thing is that there is no variable named: PATH in my environmental variables, so I added a new one, and it did not work, the one that I always get when I do run-> cmd is
    c:\> documents and settings\my user name
    which I found out is the so called"HOMEPATH", and it is not seen in the environmental variables tab.
    How can I change it permanetly? Please help me

    then I run cmd again, I still get
    C:\Documents and Settings\user>set path
    Path=C:\JAVA\j2sdk1.4.0\bin
    PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WS
    ;.pyo;.pyc;.py;.pyw
    It did not seem to help. The path variable that cmd
    uses remained the same.In Reply #2, you said the set path shows "Path=C:\WINDOWS\System32" Now you say "Path=C:\JAVA\j2sdk1.4.0\bin" That makes it look like changed the path. If you enter "javac" it should run. However, I recommend that you go back into the Environmental Variables and change the Path you added so it says "C:\JAVA\j2sdk1.4.0\bin;C:\WINDOWS\System32"
