[Flashcoders] Datagrid Sorting

2006-08-11 Thread Brandon Krakowsky/MTC
I have a datagrid populated with a dataprovider.  I add items to the 
dataprovider with the following type of statement:
dataprovider.addItem({u:{label:clearUser, role:clearRole}, 
uState:clearState, sel:false, data:l});

I can sort according to uState no problem with the following:
dataprovider.sortItemsBy(uState, Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);

I'm having trouble sorting according to u.
dataprovider.sortItemsBy(u.role,u.label, Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);

This doesn't seem to work.  Should I access the u object differently?

Thanks,
Brandon

[Flashcoders] Resize External .Swf File Based on Stage?

2006-06-26 Thread Brandon Krakowsky/MTC
I'm having an issue resizing externally loaded .swf files.  It's no 
problem if the content of the external .swf is contained within the 
movie's stage, but if not, how can I resize it based on it's width or 
height?  Especially if the content is animated and the height/width is 
constantly changing?  It doesn't seem like you can get the stage size of 
an externally loaded .swf.

Thanks,
Brandon

Thanks.  Yeah, I figured that's what I'd have to do.

Re: [Flashcoders] Resize External .Swf File Based on Stage?






There is no way to know the stage size of an imported SWF.

The loading parent only knows the size of the loaded SWF from the 
elements present on frame 1.  You could however place an invisible 
element the size of it's stage inside the loaded SWF... (I've used that 
trick before!)  Or use variables with the height and width on the first 
frame of your loaded SWF

A+

Re: [Flashcoders] setRGB for Several Instances of MovieClip

2006-05-23 Thread Brandon Krakowsky/MTC
Yeah, that's what I figured.  I was hoping it was more of a Tint type 
effect, as if I manually added a tint on MovieClipB.  Thanks!

Re: [Flashcoders] setRGB for Several Instances of MovieClip






 of MovieClipB inside of it?  In theory, I should be able to set the 
color
 of MovieClipB, and thereby change the appearance of all instances of
 MovieClipA?  Doesn't work though -- it only changes the appearance of 
the
 instance of MovieClipA in which I changed the color of MovieClipB.

It doesn't work because it isn't supposed to work like that (your theory 
isn't correct).

All instances are that - instances. Whatever you change on one instance 
isn't reflected on the other. They're completely different objects now, 
even 
if they have been created from the same original symbol.


 Is there any way to do this?

You have to change the color of all instances you want the color to be 
changed.

IE,

var myMovies = [this.movieclipa, this.movieclipb, this.movieclipc];
for (var i in myMovies) new Color(myMovies[i]).setRGB(0xwhatevercolor);

Or any longer version of that.

[Flashcoders] Passing TextField Instance Name to Function

2006-05-22 Thread Brandon Krakowsky/MTC
Hello all.  This is probably very simple.  I'm trying to pass the instance 
name of a textfield to a setTextColor function which applies a 
TextFormat.  The function takes 4 parameters, the new format name, the 
textfield instance name, the textfield color, and the textfield alignment. 
 Everything is passed correctly except for the textfield instance name. 
The absolute path is passed, which means _level0. is appended to the 
beginning of the full path. 

So for instance, I pass leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle, where 
tabTitle is the actual textfield.  when I pass it to the setTextColor 
function and trace it, _level0.leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle 
is returned.  This would be fine except for when I try and evaluate the 
variable inside the function with _root[var], it fails.  See below: 

setTextColor(topLeftTab,leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle,0x00,left);
 


function setTextColor(formatName, fieldClip, col, align) { 

_root[formatName] = new TextFormat(); 
_root[formatName].color = col; 
_root[formatName].align = align; 

//this is the problem here. I can't remove _root, because that 
is bad syntax.  this also doesn't work.  so I'm left with _root. + 
_level0.leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle. 
_root[fieldClip].setTextFormat(_root[formatName]); 
} 

Thanks, 
Brandon Lee

Re: [Flashcoders] Passing TextField Instance Name to Function

Wacky!  That works with no brackets at all and fieldClip.setTextFormat 
is evaluated as leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle.setTextFormat. 
 You got it!

Thank you very much,
Brandon

Re: [Flashcoders] Passing TextField Instance Name to Function






Here's another...
Using your movieclip path I have this working...
code
function setTextColor(formatName, fieldClip, col, align) {
 formatName = new TextFormat();
formatName.color = col;
formatName.align = align;
 fieldClip.setTextFormat(formatName);
}
leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle.text = testing color;

_root.onLoad = function(){ //just to test that the function is called
 setTextColor(myColor,leftInfoClip.topLeftTabs.leftTab.tabTitle, 
0x99,left);
 
}
/code
