[Flashcoders] Access a clip when it's attached to the stage

2008-04-25 Thread Dwayne Neckles
I am trying to make apply the reflection class to my coverflow code...

I emailed the creator of the reflection class 
(http://pixelfumes.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflection-class-v3-with-source.html) 
and he said to

"Try not applying the reflections until after the clip is attached and fully 
inited.."

and I wasn't sure how to detect for when its attached and accessible to 
actionscript...
I know there is an event for when things are loaded in etc.. but how about when 
its attached and accesible to actionscript

I saw somewhere that you can set the attached clips onEnterframe with a 
function I tried that with no success..
If you want to see the fla let me know...

Dwyane,I
took an initial look and it appears it may be related to the levels
being used.  Try not applying the reflections until after the clip is
attached and fully inited.  Then make sure that the reflection is
looking good too - you probably will want to test on something static.
 A dropoff of 7 may be too much.  I started going into the Reflection
class and checking where the reflections are added.  They are using
getNextHighestDepth so you would think it would be appearing.  You can
hardcode a value in there if you like if you know that your gradient
and album art are on levels 1 and 2.  Sorry I don't have more time to
check it out right now. 
Thanks!-Ben

I've been trying for a few hours to get your reflection class to work with a 
code i found on reflecktions.com


Attached is the FLA and your class...

Here is the breakdown:


In
the coverflow as you know those clips scale horizontally.. now even
though i put all of the clips in a parent clip called holder ( on stage
) it still didnt work.

Now I know I'm not allowed to reflect a clip that scales but I am scaling the 
holder clip and not the invidual planes..

Maybe its because I'm trying to reflect a clip thats attached to the stage...
