2. Additional interaction wish list for our project Load an external swf file Load and external text file Making the text file scrollable via buttons
3. var myLoader : Loader = new Loader( ); CLASS a blueprint or cookie cutter Creates a new variable named myLoader with a data type of Loader new instance of the Loader Class
4. var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.load FUNCTION a task, such as loading an external swf file
5. URLRequest a request to load an external swf file var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.load (new URLRequest("the name of your swf file goes here.swf"));
6. var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.load(new URLRequest("the name of your swf file goes here.swf")); addChild(myLoader); addChild adds the swf to the family
8. var content_req : URLRequest = new URLRequest (“name of your text file goes here.txt” ); CLASS a blueprint or cookie cutter Creates a new variable named content_req with a data type of URLRequest new instance of the URLRequest Class which specifies the name of the text file
9. var content_req :URLRequest = new URLRequest(“name of your text file goes here.txt” ); var content_ldr : URLLoader = new URLLoader (“content_req” ); CLASS a blueprint or cookie cutter
10. Event listener var content_req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“name of your text file goes here.txt” ); var content_ldr :URLLoader = new URLLoader(“content_req” ); content_ldr .addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
11. var content_req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“name of your text file goes here.txt” ); var content_ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader(“content_req” ); content_ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete); function onComplete(event:Event):void { instance name of text box .text = event.target.data; } FUNCTION a task, such as loading external text file
12. function scrollUp (event:MouseEvent):void { instance name of text box .scrollV -= 2; } FUNCTION a task, such as a scrolling dynamic text file
13. function scrollDown (event:MouseEvent):void { instance name of text box .scrollV += 2; } FUNCTION a task, such as a scrollable dynamic text file function scrollUp(event:MouseEvent):void { instance name of text box.scrollV -= 2; }
14. Event listener instance name of scroll up button .addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function name for up ); instance name of scroll down button .addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function name for down ); function scrollDown(event:MouseEvent):void { instance name of text box.scrollV += 2; } function scrollUp(event:MouseEvent):void { instance name of text box.scrollV -= 2; }
