Re: [Flashcoders] Selection.getFocus()
Exactly. I was amazed too first time I saw it.
As micha said, you can do
getFocusObject():MovieClip{
eval(Selection.getFocus());
}
Any ideas why is working that way?
Cheers

Re: [Flashcoders] Selection.getFocus()
Hi
I did something like this before... You can do a recursive method parsing
the path like this:
function extractObject(aPath:String):Object {
return extractObjectRecurs(this, aPath.split(.), 0);
} // end extractRunTime
function
extractObjectRecurs(aRankObject:Object,aPathArray:Array,aIndex:Number):Object
{
if (aIndexaPathArray.length-1) {
return
extractObjectRecurs(aRankObject[aPathArray[aIndex]],aPathArray,aIndex+1);
} else {
return aRankObject[aPathArray[aIndex]];
}
} // end extractRecursRunTime
onEnterFrame = function() {
trace(--- NEW FRAME );
var path:String = Selection.getFocus();
trace(PATH: +path);
var object:Object = extractObject(path);
trace(TARGET POSITION: +object._x);
}
Put your object inside your object inside your object inside ... and on the
stage... run the fla and select it.

FlashCoders,
Selection.getFocus() gives back a String. Is there a way to get the
Object?
Thx, Lieven Cardoen

RE: [Flashcoders] Selection.getFocus()
eval() is not deprecated. You're right. It's more than deprecated. It's been removed altogether in the next version of Flash. http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/migration.html Global Functions eval() Removed No screen name said on Jul 22, 2006 at 7:59 AM : Why was eval() removed? djtechwriter said on Jul 25, 2006 at 5:31 PM : eval() was removed because the implementation of it in AS2 was limited and you can use other more efficient operations for obtaining the same result. In the AS2 entry for eval(): http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/1726.html You'll notice the description suggests some alternatives. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
