Custom Class for movie clips

Hello AS2 Forum,
I am being forced to use AS2.0. (prefer AS3). I am using
Captivate 3, and want to add some Flash created swfs as animations
to a slide or slides in my Captivate project (Captivate 3 supports
AS2 only at this time).
I would like to create a class file that has symbol in it. By
symbols I mean MovieClips that are converted drawings.
My test case is just one item, a "plus" sign for addition. I
will want to add a minus, a divide (slash), and a multiply
(asterisk) once I get my class working.
I have a nice plus sign that I created using the Flash
drawing tools. Is there some way I can add this created symbol to
my class? I mean without putting a bunch of code in the class that
actually draws the plus sign using "lineto" this and "lineto" that,
etc. My thought is create a class called "Operator", and have the
signs in the class, and instantiate a sign using something like:
var plus:Operator = new Operator("plus");
The thought of creating the math to draw an asterisk is not
exciting!
Or should I just create the symbols in my fla file, convert
to movieclips, and add to the stage using the attachMovie scenario
(which is easier).
Tips???
Thanks,
eholz1

Hello Kglad,
Thanks for the info. I might be getting "smarter" as the
thought did occur to me, but did not try it. can I assume that I
would build a swf of the "image" and then use attachMovie to bring
the swf into my class file, and the when the class is instantiated
in my other flash file, I will have the object?
I will experiment.
Thanks

RemoveChild for movie clip that was added in another function?

Hello everyone. I have 3 different functions for my preloader. I have an Event.OPEN, ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, and an Event.COMPLETE. In the event.OPEN function, I create a new variable that is data typed to the class name of my preloader that I set in it's property dialogue box. This is just a simple circle animation. Below is my code for it:
function addPreloader(event:Event):void
    var myPreloader:mcPreloader = new mcPreloader();
    myPreloader.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;
    myPreloader.y = stage.stageHeight / 2;
    myPreloader.width = 75;
    myPreloader.height = 75;
    addChild(myPreloader);
My ProgressEvent.PROGRESS function looks like so:
function preloadImages(event:ProgressEvent):void
    var percent:Number = Math.round(event.bytesLoaded / event.bytesTotal * 100);
    percent_txt.text = percent + "%";
and my Event.COMPLETE function looks like so:
function imageLoaded(event:Event):void
    var myLoadedImage:Loader = Loader(event.target.loader);
    addChild(myLoadedImage);
    new Tween(myLoadedImage, "alpha", Strong.easeIn, 0, 1, 0.5, true);
    event.target.loader.removeEventListener(Event.OPEN, addPreloader);
    event.target.loader.removeEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preloadImages);
    event.target.loader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded);
The only problem is that when it's done loading, I'd like to remove the myPreloader from the stage. Since it is declared in the Event.OPEN function, I can't communicate with it via my Event.COMPLETE function. How can I successfully remove it from the stage after it's done loading? Thanks!
Jesse

Duh, thanks Kglad. It's been a long week ;).

Check for movie clips with AS?

Is it possible to check if a frame contain a movie clip with
AS, and then if movie clip is found run a function? Like a global
"event handler " for movie clips.

I want a function that automaticly can detect and fade in any
movie clip found in any keyframe in the main timeline. So i don't
have to make
In the first keyframe in the main timeline
on (ohh here i found a movie clip)
//let's run a nice fade function on that movie clip
mx.transitions.TransitionManager.start
(eval(TheClip),
{type:mx.transitions.Fade,
direction:0,
duration:1,
easing:mx.transitions.easing.None.easeNone,
param1:empty,
param2:empty
Something like that

Can you create a "constructor" for movie clips?

What I'm doing:
var this_array[counter] = new monster; //monster is a movie clip
init_monster(); //set's things like .name, .x, .y, etc.
What I want to do:
var this_array[counter] = new monster();
When I add a "monster" I then call a function to "initialize" all of it's stats.
Is there a way in the creation of the object, like with a constructor, where it automatilly does it on 1 line?
I'm teaching myself and am a little stuck on this part. If I have to create a "monster class" to do what I want just say so.
Any simple examples or links to simple examples would be great. Thanks in advance.

Ok so I've made a class Monster, and I have my movie object Red_Monster
How would I go about creating the variable so it knows it's both?
The only thing I can think of is linking them together as a .variable of the other.
Example:
var this_monster[x] = new Red_Monster();
this_monster[x].stats = new Monster();
It just seems a bit slopy, it would be nice to have this_monster know it's both. Is there a way to do that?
(added)
I've gotten Monster to extend MovieClip, and this is working to use it as a movieclip.
Currently trying to change the image of the movie clip in code to Red_Monster. Is there a way to do that?
(added)
Found how to do it, sort of. Change the class linkage name to Monster instead of Red_Monster. I just have to make classes for each movie clip.
(last add, answer for anyone else)
Ok the answer is to create a Monster class that extends MovieClip. Then for each color_Monster they all extend Monster, no other code needed inside each class other then the constructor.

Adding info blocks in a custom class for Factsheet

Hi Experts,
I need to create a custom class by copying the standard class 'CL_CRM_CCKPT_PROCESS_OPEN' which should accept input as Activity Types. At present this class only accepts Number of months as Input. This added input field should accept individual multiple values & Ranges and F4 help also needs to be attached for the field.
I would like to know how to add this new input field to the class 'CL_CRM_CCKPT_PROCESS_OPEN' .
Any valuable help would be appreciated & points would be rewarded generously for the same.
Regards,
Sangeeta.

Hi,
You can copy and include your fields in the class using transaction SE24.
According to your subject line you are trying to modify an existing factsheet display you own data. I would suggest instead of creating a modifying an existing class, implement your own function module and call this function module directly from the smartform used to for factsheet. This is an easier way to implement modification of factsheets instead of using the classes and displaying the data.
Reward with points if this helps.

How do I View Guides for Movie Clips in Relation to Entire Scene?

My boss purchased a flash animation from a company a few months ago that she now needs me to fix. The goal is to resize the animation to different dimensions for a new banner. I took the original file, brought up the document settings, and changed the size to the new one we need, and hit the "scale content" checkbox. The file I have after doing this is shown below; I have highlighted the shape I will be talking about in pink. Nothing is the correct size now so I am trying to resize them to fit the stage area. I am having trouble with the green shape that is highlighted Pink.
The person who originally made this file made that highlighted shape into a movie clip and then dropped it in to the main timeline. I was wondering if there was a way that I could see where that shape is in relation to the area of the entire stage and the other objects in the main timeline? Meaning if I am inside of the greenblock movie clip all I see is what is below:
With this view I cannot tell where that shape is in relation to everything else. I am hoping someone can tell me how to view the guides from my main file inside of this movie clip( I already have guides turned on), or any other way of seeing what size and where my shape is in relation to rest of the objects on the stage of my main file. I would take any option that would let me tweak the green shape inside of the movie clip and see in real time how it looks in relation to the rest of the items on the stage as I make changes.
Any suggestions on how to get perspective on where my movie clip is in relation to the stage and other objects on it would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Tissal

Somehow double clicking on your system seems to be connected to the command
fl.getDocumentDOM().enterEditMode('');//the view where you don`t see the rest of your stage
whereas normally it defaults to
fl.getDocumentDOM().enterEditMode('inPlace'); //the view where you can see everything els on stge alphablended
you can either create a shortcut to
edit>edit in place or alter the standard behaviour of your double click
or right click(Windows) or ctrl-click(MAc) the mc and choose Edit in Place

Formats for movie clip used in PSE 4 slide show

Still finding it difficult to find documentation of what formats are supported for using digital camera movie clips in PSE 4 slide show.
The movie file from my Canon camera is 640 x 480, 30 fps Motion JPEG and has a .AVI extension. I am able to use it "as is" in a PSE 4 slide show. However, sometimes I need to trim the movie clip in Windows Movie Maker 2 in order to keep only the best part.
My question is what parameters can I specify to save my movie clip in Movie Maker 2 so that I can use it as a movie clip in a Photoshop Elements 4 slide show that will be saved as a WMV file?

Karin Sue,
>Also, are the projects saved in a folder somewhere, or only as part of the Catalog?"
The definition of the "project", which is the "Creation" in Organizer terms is saved only in the Catalog.
>If you publish your creation as a pdf or wmv they are saved in the folder you designate. Once published, I don't believe there is any way to edit. If you save the creation, you can go back and edit and republish if you like.
Yes, the WMV or PDF file is saved in the folder that you designate. You are correct that if you save the Creation, you can go back and re-edit. When you Save the Creation gets a thumbnail within the Organizer photo well and you can click on the thumbnail to go back in to the Creation process make modifications and save a new WMV or PDF file.
Note: that the Save window documents that the PDF choice does not support some options such as Pan and zoom, videos, and certain transitiions.

Creating functions for movie-clips(serious problem)

Hello,
This is I think my third thread on these forums and in my
previous threads I had always got some help.Well, now I have
another serious problem, can you help me?
I am unable to create a function that can control movie
clips. Let me explain:-
I have 10 movie clips on the stage and I have assigned them
that whenever they crash to an object, they will go to a random
position. Writing this code ten times for each movie clip would be
very tedious, so, I thought about creating a function, but, it
doesn't work. Here's the function, can you correct it?
var object:movieClip;
function position(object) {
var testnum1:Number;
testnum1 = random(290)+36;
_root.object._y = -77.6;
_root.object._x = testnum1;
position(nameofmovieclip)
PLEASE HELP IS REQUIRED!!!!
Thanking All,
Chinmaya

Thanks for the reply,
I tried that, it worked!
But, now, I am encountering a really odd problem. This time
I'll give you my full code.The problem is, that now when the object
collides with another one, it changes its position according to the
code but then after a while, it just passes through the object.
Here's my code:-
function position(object) {
var testnum1:Number;
testnum1 = random(290)+36;
object._y = -77.6;
object._x = testnum1;
metal.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.metal._y += speednum;
if (_root.metal.hitTest(_root.testline)) {
position(_root.metal);
speednum = random(6)+1;
Can you help me out again,
Thanks,
Chinmaya
P.S. I have tried to use the function like this:
position(metal), but it doesn't work. And yes, I have already
defines speednum somewhere before, so that isn't the
problem.

Boundary for movie clips following the mouse

here's my AS...
myInterval = setInterval(KBMOglobal,15);
function KBMOglobal () {
KBMOglobal1._x -= (KBMOglobal1._x - _xmouse)/10;
KBMOglobal1._y -= (KBMOglobal1._y - _ymouse)/10-2;
ok, so my movie clip follows the mouse around, with a small
delay and the y axis is slightly lowered. the stage of my movie is
380 x 640. does anyone have any suggestions on how to create a
boundary, equal to the size of my stage, that does not let the
movie clips that follow the mouse extend past? does that even make
any sense? essentially, i would like the movie clips to follow the
mouse, the entire movie clip stay visible on the stage. because of
the positioning of the items on the stage that initiate this
function, i only have to consider the width of each movie clip,
which luckily is a constant = 200. does that make any sense? let me
try this all again....
how do adjust the above function so that the movie clip,
KBMOglobal1 (which has a width of 200) stay within the horizontal
limits of the stage (which is 380)?
thanks for your time and to everyone in this forum that has
been so very helpful with all my questions in this project so far,
yall rock!

would you please be so kind to explain what your script is
doing? because i'm not a total idiot, i realize i could probably
replace 380 with 760 (double the width of the stage) and it would
work as expected. however, if you could spare the time to explain
what the following two lines are doing, step by step....i'll give
you my first born.....

thanks again for your time!
do you know ?: operator? it is like if...else... statements,
when we say:
somethingIsTrue ? do1() : do2();
it is exactly same meaning like:
if (somethingIsTrue) {
do1();
} else {
do2();
Now, we look at this line:
KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x<0?
KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x=0:
KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x;
it is same like
if (KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x<0) {
KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x=0
} else {
KBMOglobalGeneralCancelDispatch._x

How do I create a play button for movie clip using AS3

Hello.
Bit new to this and have been searching the adobe forums and google. I am trying to create a button that will play an imported MovieClip.
I have a movie clip that I've imported into it's own layer (Layer1) Frame 1. I've given the MovieClip an instance name of foundationMovie.
I've created a button and have that on its own layer(Layer2) above layer1, it is also in Frame 1.
I've added a
stop (); action to layer2
The video is not set to autoplay.
I want the video to start playing when the viewer clicks the button. I know I've got to put some kind of event listener using AS3 in my timeline somewhere.
I've found some code and I've been trying to work with it. I'm sure I've mutilated it beyond usability but this is what I've got.
stop ();
player.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,play);
function play(event:MouseEvent)
gotoAndPlay("foundationMovie");
If someone could point me the right direction or help me with my code I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

First, you need to clear up what you are working with... a movieclip and a video are usually entirely different things.
Next, your code may get you started on your way with some changes. You shouldn't use "play" as a function name due to there already being a play() method/function in Flash.
If the movieclip is a movieclip and has an instance name of "foundationMovie", and your button has an instance name of "player" then the following adjusted code would normally work...
stop ();
player.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playMovie);
function playMovie(event:MouseEvent)
foundationMovie.play();

Checking files for movie clips

Hi,
Is there a quicker way to do a global search within a large
flash file to see if any movie clips still exist, without having to
open every frame & check ea symbol individually on the timeline
to check in addition to searching the library?
thanks.

use the Movie Explorer.

I don't understand, Why you try to create new Label in getLabel constructor?
You get label class already extended from JLabel and don't necessary to create new JLabel.
public getLabel( String labelName, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color foreGround,
                               String fontName, int fontStyle, int fontSize ){
               super(labelName);
               this.setBounds( x, y, width, height);
               this.setForeground(foreGround);
               this.setFont(new Font(fontName, fontStyle, fontSize));
          }I think, you need to create ControlsFactory and use it for creating custom controls. It's best solution for you.

Laws for movie clips?

What is the scoop on using scenes for personal demo reels from Hollywood movies? Can I put it up on my site, or is that illegal? I'd want to use a clip from LOTR or soemthing similiar. Thanks!
J

Hi Soundscore,
That's a big no-no, mainly because it's illegal.
Heck, it's even difficult to sometimes get a client to grant permission to use clips of a movie you scored for use in a demo reel! For example, this very situation is addressed in the scoring contract I signed for direct-to-DVD animation I recently scored with a partner. It says that we can only use up to 30 seconds of footage for promotional purposes, with the added 'gotcha' that we can't feature footage that contains any of the actor's voices!
I once spent quite a bit of time considering doing exactly this -- re-scoring scenes from already established movies -- to "show my wares". After all, if you have "big budget, big drama" (BBBD) musical sensibilities, how is a wants-to-be-in-the-big-leagues composer supposed to be able to show off this kind of talent without access to BBBD drama footage?
Well, I reconsidered this approach. First of all, the music for such movies has already been composed and this represents the director, producer, and composer's vision for how those scenes were to be conveyed to the audience; especially in the case of a blockbuster movie like LOTR with its Oscar-winning score, it would be hard to get anyone to accept that you've done better than Howard Shore. That's not to say that you don't have the talent to equal or even exceed what he did, but still, "putting it out there" that you can compete on his level might come across as disrespectful, at best.
OK, let's say you go this route, re-scoring scenes from established movies. Show your reel to the right person, i.e., an independent filmmaker or someone doing C and B-level films and you could end up making a big impression! They might even take delight in how well you treated scenes from such a venerable movie as LOTR, and, as well, to have been so audacious to take on such a task!
Show the reel to the wrong person, i.e., someone on the B to A level who might know the players involved in the original movie, and you might get a bad reaction. See, even if that person liked what you did, in order to convince other people that you're "the guy" to score their next big blockbuster, your little bit of re-scoring "sacrilege" would have to be shown around, and the "sacrilege", not to mention the precedent set by the original music in that movie, might just turn off the wrong person at some point in the decision-making process. In short, it would be hard for a powerful person in the movie industry to "endorse" what you did in the light of the BBBD and Oscar-winning nature of the original film(s).
Shopping such a re-scoring reel to independent filmmakers is a much safer bet. But then again, there's a chance that their kinds of budgets for making films don't fit into the BBBD category. And I've learned through trial and error that taking a BBBD to the music on a "cheap" looking independent film doesn't always work.
So my advice would be to join a local filmmaker's group, advertise yourself as a composer, and shop an audio reel of your music to them. If you get a bite from a director who's interested in having you score their film, don't be terribly picky about how good it might be. There's a lot to be gained from the experience of scoring any film, including:
• the very interaction with the director, understanding his wishes and understanding your role
• the choice of in and out points for cues
• judging the correct tempos and selecting hit points
• knowing how to score so that the music doesn't come across as cartoony when it addresses action
...and so on and so forth.
Working on independent films is a great way to build up your reel, make associations, and even make mistakes that you can learn GREAT lessons from!
Also, what's interesting to note is that rarely if ever do you come across a film composer's website where scenes from a movie are posted. 99 out of 100 times (if not 100/100), film composers simply link music tracks, often with descriptive blurbs describing the emotional intent.
What I've written here is just my personal opinion. That's not to say that I'm right or wrong. For all I know I'm being overly cautious (illegality aside) in my decision to not take this approach to get to the BBBD films that I think I'm capable of scoring. You may get very different advice from others, so just take what I've said as an opinion on this approach, FWIW.
