[Flashcoders] Animation stops working after swapChildren
I have a class which extends a SWC , in the swc i have two boxes, front and back and an animation on the same timeline. The animation works fine without swapping when I swap them the animation stops working. Anyway I can make it work? I have the following code : var frontTemp:DisplayObject = this.animationInstance.getChildByName(front); var backTemp:DisplayObject = this.animationInstance.getChildByName(back); this.animationInstance.swapChildren(frontTemp,backTemp); this.animationInstance.gotoAndPlay(animation); Fahim Akhter Game Developer | White Rabbit Studios | http://apps.facebook.com/feline-frenzy/ ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] Modifying a already defined tween
I tried continueTo which seems to work :D thanks Fahim Akhter Game Developer | White Rabbit Studios | http://apps.facebook.com/feline-frenzy/ On Thu, May 13, 2010 at 2:41 PM, kennethkawam...@gmail.com kennethkawam...@gmail.com wrote: I recommend TweenMax, which you can just call updateTo() to change the end value of the tween on the fly. If you need to use your Tween, then I'd imagine you would call continueTo(), but then you have to determine how much time left to complete the tween to new goal.

[Flashcoders] Changing Containers
Hi; I have this: big_container.removeChild(container_middle); container_middle = container_middle2; big_container.addChild(container_middle); I'm trying to change container_middle to container_middle2 but keep the same name so that I can manipulate it programmatically. Unfortunately, the above code doesn't work. I only succeed in removing the first container. How shall I do this?

Or more precisely: the timeline will stop. Don't mess with timeline tweened instances. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Changing Containers
That should work. Perhaps there is some other unmentioned detail that you have forgotten to mention? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Changing Containers
This appears to be more complex than I originally anticipated. Here is more
complete code:
var start_flag:Boolean = true;
var start_flag2:Boolean = true;
function BigContainer()
{
if(start_flag == false)
{
start_flag2 = false;
}
if(start_flag == true)
{
LoadImages();
start_flag = false;
}
else
{
if(i == 4)
{
i = 1;
}
else if(i == 3)
{
j = 1;
}
var timeline:TimelineLite = new
TimelineLite({onComplete:LoadImages()});
timeline.append(new TweenLite(container_left, 3, {alpha: 1}));
}
}
function LoadImages()
{
LoadLeft();
}
function LoadLeft():void
{
if(start_flag == true)
{
container_left = new Sprite();
} else {
big_container.removeChild(container_left);
container_left = container_left2;
}
big_container.addChild(container_left)
var path:String = images/left + i + .png;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(path);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(req);
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
function(e:IOErrorEvent):void{ trace(e) });
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
LoadLeftLoaded);
}
function LoadLeftLoaded(evt:Event):void
{
var loaderInfo:LoaderInfo = evt.target as LoaderInfo;
var displayObject:DisplayObject = loaderInfo.content;
displayObject.width = 319;
displayObject.height = 502;
big_container.removeChild(container_left2);
container_left.addChild(displayObject);
if(start_flag2 == true)
{
container_left.x = 1000;
container_left.y = 20;
} else {
container_left.x = 30;
container_left.y = 20;
}
var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite({onComplete:SpinLeft});
timeline.append(new TweenLite(container_left, 1, {x:30, y:20}));
}
function SpinLeft()
{
big_container.addChild(container_left2)
var path:String = images/left + j + .png;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(path);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(req);
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
function(e:IOErrorEvent):void{ trace(e) });
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
SpinLeftLoaded);
}
function SpinLeftLoaded(evt:Event):void
{
var loaderInfo:LoaderInfo = evt.target as LoaderInfo;
var displayObject:DisplayObject = loaderInfo.content;
displayObject.width = 319;
displayObject.height = 502;
container_left2.addChild(displayObject);
container_left2.x = 30;
container_left2.y = -482;
var rand:Number = new Number(randomNumber(rand_low, rand_high));
var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite({onComplete:
CompleteLeft});
timeline.append(new TweenLite(container_left, rand/100, {alpha:
1}));
timeline.append(new TweenLite(container_left, 1, {x:30, y:522}));
var timeline2:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite();
timeline2.append(new TweenLite(container_left2, rand/100, {alpha:
1}));
timeline2.append(new TweenLite(container_left2, 1, {x:30, y:20}));
}
function CompleteLeft()
{
left_done = true;
AllDone();
}
function AllDone()
{
if(right_done == true mid_done == true left_done == true)
{
right_done = false;
mid_done = false;
left_done = false;
i += 1;
j += 1;
BigContainer()
}
}
When it runs through BigContainer the second time, for some reason my
containers disappear and nothing shows on the screen. This happens even if I
take out my removeChild statements, and that's what's got me puzzled. Ideas?
TIA,
John
