Inside movieclip script?

Hey, I am wondering how I can use a script inside a movieclip outside the movieclip, for an example. The first frame in the movie clip:
var RoXYZ
RoXYZ = 3.14;
And outside the movieclip it's:
circle._visible = true;
RoXYZ = 3.1415926535
if(RoXYZ == 3.14){
circle._visible = false;
What i am trying to do is that if the movieclip reaches a specific frame a script is triggered. Is this possible?

From inside a movieclip you can talk to the _parent object/timeline using "_parent" to target it. So if you wanted to tell the _parent to move to a certain frame, inside the movieclip you could use...
_parent.gotoAndStop(some frame);
Or if there was a function in the _parent you could use...
_parent.someFunction();
or maybe...
_parent.someFunction(RoXYZ); // passing the RoXYZ variable as an argument
And if you needed to target the main timeline from inside some buried movieclip, you can use _root instead of _parent.

Iterating inside a script task - SSIS 2012

Hi,
in order to create SSAS partitions I need to read a SQL Server table where I've year and month value.
So I think to iterate for each row inside the data set returned by the read operation and for each year and month value to create a SSAS partition.
Is it better to read the SQL Server table outside the script task? How can I iterate for each row in the dataset inside the script component?
Any suggests to me, please?
Thanks

I've done similar requirement as below
1. Create a object type variable
2. Use Execute sql task to populate the recordset with partition information from the query. Use resultset option as Full resultset and map to object variable with index 0 in resultset tab
3. Use a For Each Loop with ADO enumerator and map to object variable. Then have variables inside to get individual field values
4. Add script task inside loop and pass the variables inside and use it to build your script task for partition processing. If you want you can also use analysis services DDL task for this too.

Get a Step Count From Inside Your Script

I've increased my Max Steps to 1500, so that I could do more inside my scripts. But I would like to be able to know what the current step count is, anyone know of a way of getting this info from inside the script.

Hi Bill
I've never found a way. I usually bump up the step limit, it's a loop prevention mechanism so as long as you are careful with your scripting it shouldn't be an issue to raise it further if you are concerned you might go near the limit.

Problem: ()[]{} invisible inside the script-tag

Hi there,
This morning I realised I had some strange problem with my Dreamweaver CS4. The brackets ()[]{} are somehow invisible inside the script-tag. I know they are still there, because they execute correctly and when I copy a codefragment with some (of the now invisible) brackets to another text-editor, they are there again.
Let me give a short example:
// Brackets are visible in DW ()[]{} These are visible, tooI can see the "bla", but NOT the brackets before and after it. ()[]{} These here are visible again.
So you see, brackets are somehow made invisible inside the script-tag, and I'd like to know how to make them visible again.
Here's what I tried so far (everything without success):
- restart Dreamweaver
- restart PC
- check the options menu (didn't find anything for this problem)
- hide/show the script-tag using dreaweaver's feature for this.
Intresting point here: when the part where the brackets are, are collapsed it shows me "()[]{}[..." as a preview. So even Dreamweaver "knows" the brackets are there, but still refuses to show them -_-
- set the gui setting from "coder" to "classic" and back.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance, really need to solve this, since I am using alot of hardcoded 2-dimensional javascript arrays and therefore alot of []
Best regards
Michael

Sorry for doubleposting, I should have read the manual for posting code :|
here's the code I was giving as an example:
<title>brackets work fine here: ()[]{}</title>
<style type="text/css">
.someclass {background:url(theseBracketsAreVisible.png)}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>()[]{} these are visible as well</div>
<script language="javascript">()[]{}[bla]</script> I can see the "bla", but NOT the brackets before and after it.
()[]{} These here are visible again.
</body>
Sorry again..
edit:
I realised it hides words like "function" aswell o_O
<script language="javascript">
function test() {ar = new Array;ar = ["a","b","c"];alert(ar);};
</script>
The code above is visible for me in Dreamweaver like this:
<script language="javascript">
test ar = Array;ar = "a","b","c";alertar;;
</script>
really strange..

Draw inside movieclip/graphic with Actionscript

Hi.
How I can draw inside movieclip/graphic element with Actionscript?
If i have example movieclip-element in my project and want to draw a single dot in its coordinate (10,10), how I can do that?
ty m8s!

The easiest way to draw inside a movieClip is the graphics class.
You could do something like:
this.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0x000000);
this.graphics.moveTo(10, 10);
this.graphics.lineTo(11, 11);
This isn't perfect when drawing pixels, however - it only has methods for lines and shapes(circles, rectangles etc).
If its important for you to draw a single pixel and accuracy is more important you may want to consider converting your Movieclip to a BitmapData class, which has methods for setting Pixels. Realistically though, if you didn't know about the graphics class, then that'll probably be what you're after.

Accessing shell environment variables inside OMBPlus script

Hi,
I have a problem accessing an environment variable inside OMBPlus script. I can 'see' the env. var values when using tclsh, but when I use OMBPlus.sh it doesn't work?
Anybody has an example of how to do this?
For example: puts $::env(MYVAR)
Thanks,
Ed

Hello!
Issue the command:
puts [array names env];
this will print you the content of the env array which is definitely not the environment variables.
If you want your environment variable appear in the env tcl variable then you must edit the ombplus.bat file and pass it through a java option like this:
-DMYENV="%MYENV%" (on windows assuming you declared MYENV).
Now puts $env(MYENV) will work.

ActionScript inside Movieclip is SOMETIMES ignored

Hi,
I am working on something similar to a slideshow where
buttons are used to move forward and backward in the time line.
On one of these "slides" there is another button, a MovieClip
with a few frames inside (i.e. the rollover and mousedown states
etc.) and ActionScript in Frame 1 that make the button work
(rollovers and the like).
If I play forward in this slideshow, everything works.
If I play backwards to the frame that has this button, then
all ActionScript inside this button is completely ignored
(including trace), and the button will endlessly cycle through the
frames inside (even though I tried various STOP commands from
inside and outside the movieclip).
The interesting thing is that I have a very similar slideshow
with a similar button that does NOT have this issue. If I
copy/paste the working button to replace the bad one, the same
thing happens to this button, so it somehow is local to this one
file.
There are no error messages coming up, and I don't even know
if there IS any code that would disable script inside a movieclip.
I checked the code inside the MovieClip and found nothing
wrong - it only has the stop command, a few addevenlisteners and
their corresponding functions in frame 1.
I just don't get why it works in one file but not in this one
- the best part is that whenever I create a new slideshow, I simply
create a copy of the last slideshow file, so the basics of all
these files should be identical...
Another thing that completely throws me for a loop is that
when I add any random shape (e.g. a square) into the frame that has
the BACK button that brings me to the broken button, then it works!
So I have a workaround, but I would really like to know what
causes this - I'd prefer a fix to a workaround that might break
some day, too.
Any idea what could possibly cause something like this and
what I can do about this?
Thanks!

you probably have a corrupt swf.
to test, copy all the assets to new swf and see if the problem persists.

Button inside MovieClip don't work...?!

Hello,
I\m traying to create AIR for Android app & I have 2 MovieClips in the main timeline the first in frame 35 and the second in frame 99 with the name of quary_mc. Inside the second movieclip there is a button with the name of sID_btn. When i addEventListener in frame 1 of the main timeline it display:
Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of null object reference
This is the code:
quary_mc.sID_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, displayData);
function displayData(evt:MouseEvent):void
trace("Hello");
Regards,

You will be unable to add the event listener to the button until frame 99 when it actually exists.
Alternatively, you can just add the button on frame 1 at an alpha of 0 and then set it to 1 at frame 99. However, it will still get mouse input so you will need to set quary_mc.visible = false on frame 1 and quary_mc.visible = true on frame 99 to solve that issue.

Problem reloading swfs inside movieclip in IE

I'm not quite sure whats going on. I have a website i'm working on http://www.tulum14.com and it works fine in safari and firefox, but when I run it in explorer it doesn't. Whats going on is that when you go to the homes section of the site, each home's section is a swf that is loaded into the main movieclip. In explorer these swfs load fine the first time around, but when you return and want to load the swf/section and see it again, they get stuck and although they appear to load, i'm not sure if they have and are getting stuck on the first frame or they are not loading, or there is something going on with the cache.
I am loading from the main movieclip using a container with the following code:
var homeLdr:Loader = new Loader();
var homeURL:String = (MovieClip(root).gotoArea)+"Eng.swf";
//gotoArea names the swf to load
var homeURLReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(homeURL);
homeLdr.load(homeURLReq);
homeLdr.x = -500;
homeLdr.y = -250;
MovieClip(root)[MovieClip(root).gotoArea + "_holder"].addChild(homeLdr);
//each instance of the holder clip is named after the area it should load
stop();
the loader script to check and see if the swf is loaded before running it is:
function progressHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void {
    var percent1:int;
    percent1 = (Math.round(event.target.bytesLoaded/event.target.bytesTotal*100));
    trace(percent1);
    if (percent1==100) {
        percent.x=539;
        this.gotoAndPlay(3);
    } else if (percent1!=100) {
        percent.x=541;
    percent.text=String(percent1);
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
stop();
any ideas? help?
I appreciate it.
Thanks
alfarovive

it would be best to change your preloader to the loading swf.
but you can use your current set up:
function progressHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void {
    var percent1:int;
    percent1 = (Math.round(event.bytesLoaded/event.bytesTotal*100));
    trace(percent1);
    if (percent1==100 || event.bytesLoaded==0) {
        percent.x=539;
        this.gotoAndPlay(3);
    } else if (percent1!=100) {
        percent.x=541;
    percent.text=String(percent1);
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
stop();
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(event.COMPLETE,f);
function f(e:Event){
var pe:ProgressEvent=new ProgressEvent("complete");
progressHandler(pe);

Indexing instances of specific class inside MovieClip authored with Flash Pro

Hi there.
I'm writing a class that extends MovieClip and that is linked to the MovieClip Object authored via Flash Pro during development (Father object).
The hierarchy of this MovieClip Object is hidden from me - everything I know is that it may contain instances of other Class that was authored during development and extends MovieClip in the same manner (Son objects).
I have no information regarding names or hierarchical positions of these Son objects inside Father object.
Now the question is: how to get them listed?
So approach I've taken was to implement current events:
public class Son extends MovieClip
     public static const INITIALIZED : String = "son_initialized";
     public function Son ()
          this.dispatchEvent (new Event (INITIALIZED));
public class Father extends MovieClip
     public var son : Vector<Son>;
     public function Father ()
          son = new Vector<Son> ();
          this.addEventListener (Son.INITIALIZED, this.onSonInitialized);
     public function onSonInitialized (event : Event)
          this.son.push (event.target);
Well, this code compiles with no errors whatsoever, but it turns out that onSonInitialized gets never called. I assume that's because children constructors are called ahead of their parent one.
Is there any way to get them listed?
Thanks in advance.

kglad,
I'm trying to get an array of references to Son objects (Son extends MovieClip), randomly located deep inside display list hierarchy of Father object (extends MovieClip too).
The Father movieclip is authorized in Flash Professional and is a black box for me - I can only manipulate Father.as and Son.as.
Since I can't know exactly their pathes and names (i.e. father.child1.child5OfChild1.son32 for example), I decided to make them self-aware, dispatching event during construction time, messaging everybody that this instance of Son exists:
public function Son ()
     this.dispatchEvent (new Event (INITIALIZED));
And then I attached a listener inside Father's constructor:
public function Father ()
     this.addEventListener (Son.INITIALIZED, this.onSonInitialized);
The idea was that this event listener should have been catching all the Sons, located inside Father. But it doesn't work that way - Father's constructor seems to be called after all constructors of its children, so this event listener catches nothing.
I've worked this around by straightforward display list traversing - it works, but doesn't look so elegant. May be there is still a way to make it work through events?

TextInput inside MovieClip

Hello,
I am creating a game pretty much like jeopardy. What is
happening is that you click on the number value you want, like 100
for example. When it gets clicked on, there is a tween that occurs
and then the question appears on the screen along with all of the
contestant names.
If one of the contestants knows the answer, the 'host' clicks
on their name. I won't go any deeper than that. I can get the names
to appear in as text, but it will not appear inside of a movieclip.
Attached is my code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Doug

all your movieclips have the same instance name. fix that.
and use the following to reference your textfields:
