Hi Andrei1,
Thanks for the multiple classes example. A little too advanced for me at this stage, but will certainly use it as my AS3 knowledge increases.
I just have two further queries for you.
1. CHECKBUTTON
In your "1 class" example I was able to add a "DrawCheckButton" function to draw the button using only AS3 code. How would i do this in your multiple class example?
Function: drawcheckButton:
private function drawcheckButton():void
{
// CREATE & ADD "SUBMIT" BUTTON
checkButton = new Sprite(); //Create a new instance of a Sprite to act as the button graphic.
checkButton.graphics.beginFill(0xFFCC00); //Set the color of the button graphic.
checkButton.graphics.drawRect(0,0,100,50); //Set X,Y, Width, & Height of button graphic.
checkButton.graphics.endFill(); //Apply the fill
checkButton.x = 300;
checkButton.y = 300;
checkButton.useHandCursor = true; //Add useHandCursor, buttonMode, & mouseChildren if required
checkButton.buttonMode = true;
checkButton.mouseChildren = false;
this.addChild(checkButton); //Add Button Sprite to stage
textLabel.text = "Submit!";
textLabel.x = 20;
textLabel.y = 10;
textLabel.selectable = false;
checkButton.addChild(textLabel)
}
2. SCORE
I was able to add a score to the "buttonClickHandler" function in your "1 class" example.
By using two variables - "TotalCorrectscore" and "Score".
Is this the right way to do it? (maybe i could have used existing variables)
Can i add the code below in the same way in the multiple classes example as well.
The bold text is the text i added to your code.
Function: buttonClickHandler
private function buttonClickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void
{
// loop through the objects in questions array and compare answers
var TotalCorrectscore:Number = 0; // Number of correct answers.
for each(var q:Object in questions) {
// remove spaces from answers in case user types in the beginning & the end
q.answerText.text = String(q.answerText.text).replace(/^\s+|\s+$/, "");
// compare answers in lower cases
if (q.answer.toLowerCase() == q.answerText.text.toLowerCase()) {
TextField(q.feedback).text = "correct";
TextField(q.feedback).setTextFormat(correctTF);
TotalCorrectscore=TotalCorrectscore+1 // Adds 1 to correct answer score.
}
else {
TextField(q.feedback).text = "incorrect!";
TextField(q.feedback).setTextFormat(incorrectTF);
}
}
var Score:TextField = new TextField();
Score.defaultTextFormat = textFormat;
if (TotalCorrectscore == 1) { // Score feedback says ". answered 1 question...(question is singular)"
Score.text = "Score: "+((TotalCorrectscore/questions.length)*100)+" %. (1 question correct out of "+(questions.length)+" questions)";
}
else { // Score feedback says ". answered X questions... (questions is pural)"
Score.text = "Score: "+((TotalCorrectscore/questions.length)*100)+" %. ("+TotalCorrectscore+" questions correct out of "+(questions.length)+" questions)";
}
Score.border = false;
Score.width = 400;
Score.height = 20;
Score.x = 200;
Score.y = 250;
addChild(Score);
}
}
}
