Refering to a class imported on the root timeline?

This is probably ueber basic, but I don't know how to do it.
I am importing tweenlite on the root timeline like this:
import gs.TweenLite;
I now want animate things in other MCs. I tried something like this, but it did not seem to work.
_parent.TweenLite.to(text1, 3, {_alpha:100, overwrite:0});
How would I do this?
Thanks a lot for any help with this!!!

it's easiest to not even bother with the import statement and always use:
gs.TweenLite.to();
or
gs.TweenLite.from()
from any timeline.

[JAXB] Multiple imports in the root node

Hello,
I use JAXB and am doing this scenario : unmarshalling an XML document created manually, and automatically marshalling another from the generated Java code.
This is a multiple schemas / multiple imports issue.
I would like the 2 XML documents to be similar, but in the first one, I get :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<aaa:first xmlns:aaa="http://aaa" xmlns:bbb="http://bbb">
</aaa>
and in the second :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<aaa:first xmlns:aaa="http://aaa" xmlns:ns1="urn:abc" ...>
<bbb:second xmlns:bbb="http://bbb">
</bbb>
</aaa>
So, how is that possible to import multiple namespaces (xmlns) in a single node please ? It seems that JAXB does the import only when needed, and won't group all the imports in the root node.
(moreover, how can I disable the "standalone" attribute in the header of the generated XML document please ?)
Thanks in advance.

Ok, I found a solution to get all namespaces placed in the root of the generated XML document : one have to implement a NamespacePrefixMapper
marshaller.setProperty("com.sun.xml.bind.namespacePrefixMapper",new NamespacePrefixMapperImpl());and redefining its ' public String[] getPreDeclaredNamespaceUris()' method.
For now, the problem is that namespaces declared there are somehow static. In fact, when unmarshalling Java objects from an XML document, it seems that this document namespaces are lost.
Do you know a way these namespaces would be kept somewhere, associated with the unmarshalled object ? I need these namespaces in the case that I would create another XML file from it in the future.
It's seems logical to keep this with the object, so did I miss something please ?

Controlling the root timeline from inside a MovieClip

[preface] I'll apologize in advance. I'm a designer, not a
developer. I know very little about actionscript so if you
can help me out, please pretend like I know nothing.
[/ preface]
I just need actionscript to check the value of a variable
when the end of a movie clip is reached and then call an action.
Here's what I've got and it doesn't work. Please don't laugh.
if (p == 1){
tellTarget (_root) {
play();
else if (p == 0){
stop();
(the "stop" on the "else if"
is referring to the movie clip's timeline, not the root
timeline... in case you're wondering)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No it's not a school project. Good guess though. It's
actually a self-promo piece for the ad agency I work for. I'm an
art director expanding my horizons. I would take a class or run
through one of the good actionscript books but unfortunately, I
don't have time.
Thanks for the help again kglad.
btw, I've used tellTarget successfully in a few projects in
the last few months. I'm using Flash 8.

Remove child on the root timeline from within a movieclip

Hi
How do I remove a child from the root timeline from within a separate movieclip?
I've tried
MovieClip(parent).removeChild(mc1);
But I get this error
1120: Access of undefined property mc1.
I could write a function in the root timeline that just removes child and then run that from within the movieclip but is there a better way?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for replying.
I asked on Kirupa but I couldn't access the site so I asked here.
I guy answered with this
MovieClip(parent).removeChild(MovieClip(parent).getChildByName("mc1"));
It works fine, is this the best way to do it?
Not sure if I understand what you meant?
Just to be clear I have to movie clips on the stage mc1 and mc2 and i want to remove mc1 from within mc2's timeline.
Thanks again

Reffering to code in the root timeline

I'm very suprised I theres not an obvious answer to this
question to be found. In AS 2 I would often write most of my code
in the main timeline, and then refer to it from various other
movies etc. I dont seem to be able to do that in AS 3? how can I do
it in AS 3?
For example if i had a function on the main timeline, and
wanted to call it from the code in another movie. In that past I
would have just used _root.functionName();

_root in AS3 is now simply root (no underscore). The root
property,
however, is only available to DisplayObject instances, not
other classes.
The root reference is also null unless the DisplayObject
instance is a child
of a display list attached to the stage. For timeline scripts
within a Flash
FLA, however, where the movie clip is added to the screen
within the Flash
environment, root is always available.
A good practice for globally accessible functions, however,
would be to
define your functions as static methods in a class. Then you
can reference
those functions anywhere from any object (even non
DisplayObject instances)
using ClassName.functionName()

4 mc's on the root timeline. Using onClipEvents... all mcs play at once.

I have 4 mc's on a root timeline. I'd like each, when clicked, to animate individually. Currently with the code I have, when I click one, they all play. 3 of these mc's are identical mc's (they have instance names, but aren't called out in the code, not sure how to). The fourth mc is a different mc altogether, yet this particular mc along with the other 3 (identical) all play at once.
I thought using "this" would only have the mc I click on play. Not the case. I also tried putting the instance name (i.e. onoff1) bofore "this." and after "this." and no luck.
Thanks for any help, and I regret to say that I'm not savvy in AS2, so I hope you don't mind spelling things out for me because this a bit over my head.
Also, wanted to say, that the mc's timeline do have a stop at the beginning and end. So when you export the swf (currently) the mc is stopped, and when you click on it they all play to the next stop. So they act like I want them, just that they're all animating at once no matter which one I click.
onClipEvent(mouseUp) {
this.gotoAndPlay(1);

Wow! You are the man!!!!! Karma points! Thanks so much.
I've only used on(release) for buttons, and have always used onClipEvent(mouseUp) for mcs. I didn't know you could use on(release) for mcs, didn't think you could.
I know enough AS3, more than AS2. I got a gig that asks for AS2 and I had to learn it from the ground up. I miss using the function command in AS3, I think I used it for everything.
Thanks again.

Array to control MCs on the root timeline

HI - - - a continuing saga
I have a main timeline thats about 900 frames long. During
the course of this 900 frames I bring in short MCs (subA, subB,
subC, etc) on their own layer which play their duration - (a 90
frame sub MC gets 90 frames on the main timeline).
Using a mc I made into a play/pause btn, I can pause and
resume play of the main timeline by targeting “_root”.
I can also use the same button to pause/play the sub_mcs IF I
list each one at the pause and play commands. I thought an array
would help me avoid that code repetition but it doesn't work.
Can someone look at my code and let me know what's missing
and/or what I did wrong?
TIA
JL

Hi --
Try this:
obj = allSubMCs[0]
obj.play();
etc..
You have to define the index of the array. If you want the
pause/play button
to work for all MCs in the array then just loop through the
array.

Problem class important error while executing Query from favorites

Hi Experts,
1. I have tried execute the query from favorites it is showing the error message. " Problem class important"
In the message text: logs showing error message [Attached the message screenshot].
2. From "Query Designer" Execute [Ctrl+R] gives the error "500 Internal Server Error" [Attached the screenshot]
3. Able to execute the reports from RRMX.
No ST22 dumps. Can any one suggest about...how to rectify the errors.
Thanks in advance...Surya

Need tyo make sure the problem is with the query/workbook are general issue with all workbooks/query.
1. Make sure the base query of work book is still executable. RRMX/RSRT.
2. Execute the work book in Bex/Excel and look for definition of workbook; there might be some thing in the workbook referencing other than base query.
3. If other workbook are also not working? need to check if other users have same issue.?
Hope this will help to narrow the problem.

Validation to find the Root Node !!!!

Hi All,
Is it possible to write a Validation to find the Root Node of the Hierarchy,
For E.g. If we have a three level hierarchy
Printer
Dot Matrix
T123
So is there a way I can check if my Root node value is Printer or not, because in Data Manager the value that is selected from the hierarchy drop down is the leaf node.
Regards,
Parul

Hi Jitesh,
The solution is as follows:
MDM does not give us the option to traverse to the grandparent of the leaf node..
In the example that we have taken :
Printer
- Dot Matrix
- Laser
--Laser1
--Laser2
Here if we want to check if the Grandparent of Laser1 is Printer, this cannot be done using the simple Validation, because through validation also we can at max find the parent of the current node i.e. we can traverse till Laser (for Laser 1 leaf node).
Further we cannot use Laser as the node because in MDM we have to traverse completely through the last node and select it in Data Manager. So again we cannot search for Laser -> Parent.
The Work Around that I have used is :
I have created a new field and every time I import data I have mapped this field with the first Level Node and have put the Validation on this field.
Eg: The field name is Root Node, so everytime the data is imported, Level 1 is mapped to Root Node and so all the Root node values are imported in the Root Node field that we have created and everytime the Validation Runs on this Root Node field and accordingly the process follows.
Hope that would be helpful to you all!!!!

Parul Malhotra

GotoAndStop at the the root of the timeline

HI
I have a movie clip with onRollOver and onRollOut script
attached. When clicked I would like the root of the timeline to
move to a different label. At present I have tried the following
first script on the MC to move the root timeline, however this is
not working and I assume this is due to the complexity of the movie
clip:
I have therefore used the following 2nd script for the first
frame of the timeline within the MC which works with getURL but I
am unable to get it to work with moving the root of the timeline.
Do I need to add .root somewhere? Thanks

Here is the answer:

Load swf AFTER playing to end of root timeline

Don't know if this can be done or not...
I have my Home page - 5 Navigation buttons on the page. Each
button "onRelease" will load an external swf file ( a new page).
The problem i'm having is getting the the buttons to play the rest
of the root timeline (after "Stop) before it loads the external
swf. The rest of the timeline is just a short fade to Alpha 0 of
all buttons before the new page comes in.
any help?
thanks in advance.

What you seem to need is some sort of non unloading loading
of the movie.
You got the level loading method, the movieclip loading
method and the
dedicated loader class.

Ummm... I named my document class main, thinking that might

seems to refer to main, but then I cant refer to anything on the
stage, or any function written there. From reading the help I got
the impression that function defined in the root timeline would
become publicly accessable functions that could be accessed with
dot notation. Is this not the case?
When I trace root, or main, it outputs [object main]. So then
thats the class... Why cant I refer to the functions of that class
from another movie?
Are you suggesting I write a document class with my functions
in it? could I still refer to objects on the stage if I do that.
I've read over these subjects alot in the documentation and its
really not clear... perhaps someone could write a tutorial.

Adobe Premier Elements 12 - Exporting trimmed AVCHD files from the project timeline, to a separate folder for burning to Blu Ray disc with other software?

Hi, can anyone help please. This is the first time I have used this forum.
I use Premier Elements 12, a PC, 64 Bit, Windows 7, high powered computer.
Just started trimming AVCHD in this software.
I would like to know if it is possible to export trimmed AVCHD files to a folder elsewhere (files which were originally imported into the project timeline), so that I can burn the trimmed AVCHD files (not in 'Project' form) to Blu Ray disc (using another software which I know that works to burn video files to Blu Ray disc).

Kathy
Thanks for the update. Your progress sounds very good.
Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 are similar. But, version 13 has significant feature removals and a new Elements Organizer.
So, when viewing or reading tutorials, try to determine the version of the program being used for the tutorials. As I typically write
principles tend to remain the same from version to version, but the features tend to move, change, or be discontinued from version
to version. And, it is frustrating to be armed with principles when you cannot find a feature.
