How to disable a HIT area (a movieClip with instance name "HIT") in AS2?
Please note that I don't want to hide the hit area after it get hitted. Just needed a code that disable it or remove its instance name so that other objects cannot hit it again.
If you want an instance c1 to be disabled after being touched, you can do:
c1.onEnterFrame = function():Void {
if (this.hitTest(anotherMovieClip)) {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
}
The hitTest can't occur after the onEnterFrame function is deleted.
You can just do :
your_mc.hitArea = null
Or
your_mc.hitArea = undefined

I have a problem with ModalBottomSheet and it's on my work computer so I can't record it to you right now. So basically, after I give focus to one of my TextFields, my keyboard comes up and pushes all the content upwards so I can see the TextField that I'm writing to. When I'm hiding my keyboard I can see that my ModalBottomSheet hides too, but I never set it to come up.
So if you are familiar with this bug, please let me know your solutions.
My coworker, so he inserted a boolean that checks if keyboard is up or not and if it is, dont put ap modal bottom sheet.
You can use this method until this problem is fixed with an additional update.
You can use LaunchedEffect for this. Here is an example for you.
The important thing here is to disable the ModalBottomSheetDialog when the keyboard is opened and re-enable it half a second after the keyboard is closed.
You can trigger the required function by assigning a value to this variable when the keyboard is turned on, and then changing and checking this value when the keyboard is closed.
/*Change this value to "keyboard_on" when the keyboard is turned on and "keyboard_off" when the keyboard is closed again. You can give different names for different usage areas. That's why we're using a string, not a Boolean.*/
var taskCodeValue = remember { mutableStateOf("keyboard_off") }
var sheetOpener by remember { mutableStateOf(true) }
if (taskCodeValue.value == "keyboard_off"){
LaunchedEffect(taskCodeValue.value == "keyboard_off"){
delay(500)
sheetOpener = true
}
}else {
sheetOpener = false
}
/*
By adding the Scaffold, which includes ModalBottomSheet and other compose
elements, into a box, we enable them to work independently of each other.
*/
Box(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
Scaffold(
content = {}
)
if (sheetOpener){
ModalBottomSheetLayout(
sheetState = sheetState,
sheetContent = {}
) {}
}
}
I want to increase the value of i every time the button is clicked
I've tried this code but it's not working.
val textview = findViewById<TextView>(R.id.texttest)
var i = 10
bookbutton.setOnClickListener {
i++
}
textview.text = "$i"
You have to set the text inside the listener:
bookbutton.setOnClickListener {
i++
textview.text = "$i"
}
Your listener is updating the value of i — but that's not having any visible effect because by then it's too late: the text shown in your textview has already been set.
Let's review the order of events:
Your code runs. That creates a text view and a variable, sets a listener on the button, and sets the text in the text view.
At some later point(s), the user might click on the button. That calls the listener, which updates the variable.
So while your code sets the listener, the listener does not run until later. It might not run at all, or it might run many times, depending on what the user does, but it won't run before you set the text in the text view.
So you need some way to update the text when you update the variable. The simplest way is to do explicitly it in the listener, e.g.:
bookbutton.setOnClickListener {
textview.text = "${++i}"
}
(There are other ways — for example, some UI frameworks provide ways to ‘bind’ variables to screen fields so that this sort of update happens automatically. But they tend to be a lot more complex; there's nothing wrong with the simple solution.)
I've binded the same function to all elements that I want(let's say View and Label).
In this onClick handler function I want to get the element which was clicked and increase its 'top' by 1.
Please tell me if you know how to do that, I can't find an answer yet.
My global click handler function:
function increaseElementTop(e) {
// Here we should increase element's top position.
Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(e));
}
Thanks, any help is appreciated.
Get the e.source attribute from the Event e. Then use the setTop() method.
if (e.source == $.yourLabel) {
$.yourLabel.setTop($.yourLabel.getTop() + 1)
}
UPDATE: Regarding your comment: I thought it would only be used for two elements. A universal approach would be something like this:
e.source.setTop(e.source.getTop() + 1);
Unfortunately I have no machine available to test the code but I will do so later (Tuesday I guess). Just try it and let your programm print the e.source variable. If this does not work you can also try to use e.source.getId().
function increaseElementTop(e) {
var theUIElement = e.source;
theUIElement.top = theUIElement.top + 1;
}
Add the event listener to each of your UIElements, and this will get the element you click on & modify the top.
What is the equivalent to removeMovieClip() in AS3?
Apparently many have the same question:
StackOverflow:
How to completely remove a movieclip in as3
Remove movie clip as3
How to remove childmovieclip and add to new parent movieclip
Others:
removeMovieClip(this) in AS3?
Destroy/Delete a Movieclip???
Remove movie clip
But none of their solutions seem to work, for me:
Im working on flash CS4 with AS3:
I have a very simple movie with a single button called click. On pressing the button, a new instance of coin is created:
this.click.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,justclick);
function justclick(e:MouseEvent){
var money=new coin
this.addChild(money)
money.x=e.stageX
money.y=e.stageY
}
It might not be the best code, but it works fine. Now, the coin MovieClip is supposed to show a small animation and remove itself. In good old AS2 I would have added:
this.removeMovieClip()
in the last frame of the animation. But this doesn't exist in AS3.
I have tried, without success:
this.parent.removeChild(this) // 'Cannot access a property or method of nullobject reference'...
this.removeMovieClip() // 'removeMovieClip is not a function'
removeMovieClip(this) //'call to possibly undefined method removeMovieClip'
unloadMovie(this)//'call to possibly undefined method removeMovieClip'
Solutions?
Thanks,
this.parent.removeChild(this);
This one should be working; it's what I use. One problem I had when I switched to AS3 is that sometimes it wouldn't be added as a child right, so you might want to check that. You also have to import flash.display via putting this at the top if you're not already:
import flash.display.*
You should also remove the event listener on it before removing it.
If your animation is ending on frame 20.
note: using 19 because flash count frames from zero(0) similar to array index.
class animatedCloud
{
public function animatedCloud(){
addFrameScript(19, frame20);
}
private function frame20(){
parent.removeChild(this);
}
}
Always ensure that those self removing movieclips can get garbage collected.
This solution wiped away all my instances from a loaded swf's library symbol:
var mc:MovieClip = new definition() as MovieClip;
addChild(mc);
mc.x = 1000 * Math.random();
mc.y = 1000 * Math.random();
mc.addFrameScript(mc.totalFrames - 1, function onLastFrame():void
{
mc.stop();
mc.parent.removeChild(mc);
mc = null;
});
public static function removeDisplayObject(displayObject:DisplayObject):void {
/* normal code
if(displayObject && displayObject.parent){
displayObject.parent.removeChild(displayObject);
}
*/
displayObject ? displayObject.parent ? displayObject.parent.removeChild(displayObject) : null : null;
}
I use, in an extra blank keyframe at the end of the MovieClip which should remove itself:
stop();
MovieClip(parent).removeChild(this);
Found it to be the proper and best solution.
Is there a way to set the starting selected segment in a UISegmentedControl in Interface Builder, or do I have to do it in the code? If it's in the code, is viewDidLoad the best place to set it?
From code, you can do:
self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = someDefaultIndex
Whether you should set it in viewDidLoad: or not depends entirely on the structure of your application. For example, if your app is starting up and loading the view for the first time and needs to set the control to whatever value it had during the previous run of the app, then it definitely makes sense to do it there.
In Interface Builder when you select UISegmentedControl object on your UI, then in attributes pane, in segment control there's segment drop down menu, select segment that you want selected (0,1 and so on) and tick the 'selected' option below it.
Select default value for your UISegmentedControl via storyBoard
Open ur storyboard and select the UISegmentedControl
Select atributes inspector of your UISegmentedControl (in the right corner)
Search the 'segment' atribute and open de dropdown.
Select the item you want to be selected by default.
Mark the selected checkbox to set selected by default.
If you don't use storyboards and want to set a default index after some setup/networking like me, this little snippet will select something if the user hasn't. I placed this in my subclass of UISegmentedControl, but you could place this anywhere. (Swift 3)
Decl: var UISegmentedControlNoSegment: Int { get }
Desc: A segment index value indicating that there is no selected segment. See selectedSegmentIndex for further information.
Short version:
if selectedSegmentIndex == UISegmentedControlNoSegment {
selectedSegmentIndex = initialIndex
}
Longer version
func reloadData() {
guard let numberOfItems = dataSource?.numberOfItems() else {
return
}
removeAllSegments()
for index in 0...numberOfItems {
insertSegment(with: $image, at: index, animated: false)
}
if selectedSegmentIndex == UISegmentedControlNoSegment {
selectedSegmentIndex = initialIndex
}
}
After clicking the Segmented Control go to where you created the segments and choose the one you want be default. Then below that there will be a Box with "Selected" by it. Select that and it will be default.
