For a project of mine: Custmm Grumm I needed to change a shape into an array (explained in this post shape 2 array jsfl ). To make this happen I imported the .AI file (Illustrator) to the stage. But it will place everything on one layer, every shape it’s own ‘group’ and the script I [...]
Where did attachMovie go in AS3? Once I started using attachMovie instead duplicateMovieClip my AS2 life became a lot easier. What has the ActionScript 2.0 Migration to say about this subject: ActionScript 2.0 ActionScript 3.0 Comments attachMovie() Method Removed In ActionScript 3.0, use addChild() to add child display objects. Removed… wtf? and you can read the documentation [...]
Update #1: It seems that .setRGB () has been deprecated in favor of the flash.geom.ColorTransform class. So a little as2 update. In some cases I can’t help thinking that AS3 hasn’t made our live easier. The same happened with the change that happened from the AS2 setRGB to AS3. Specifies an RGB color for a [...]
Update #1: there has been another update New MinimalComp: WheelNav, but I’m pretty sure I won’t been using this one very much… I’m using this for some time now, and it’s time to share this with you all: Minimalcomps from BIT-101. This lite-weight components set is great, I can see what the code is doing, [...]
I wanted an easy way to present my ActionScript code on my blog. The easiest way is to use the code button in WordPress and CSS. I’ve used this in combination with the pre tag But that’s doesn’t show nice code highlighting or line numbers… Syntax highlighting is a feature of some text editors that [...]
Sometimes you want a list of everything inside a movieclip. For example: you want to know the instance names of every movie in the root. ActionScript 2 A little trick that I used a lot in AS2 is: for(var i in _root){ trace(‘key: ‘ + i + ‘, value: ‘ + _root[i]); } or for(var [...]

I’ve made a mistake, the code I original wrote doesn’t work (I’m glad nobody noticed it ). You can find the correct class here My previous post is about my first step into ActionScript 3 (AS3) and in my case: trail and error is the best way to learn stuff. But it takes some time [...]

I finally started programming with ActionScript 3 (AS3); I know, I not a early adopter… And the first steps in AS3 are as uncomfortable as the first time I started OOP programming … or when I started moved from AS1 to AS2… Since I started working for NOISE 5 months ago and moved to Amsterdam, [...]
