Help on a class...

Why this throws me this error?:



ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property button1 not found on com.cacao.tooltip and there is no default value.

I want to be able to initiate the class like this:


import com.cacao.tooltip;
var newTooltip:tooltip = new tooltip();


But i can`t... it is not working...
Thanks guys.

I'm not sure but I think something goes wrong in you splitArray(clicked) function.

At toolNumber = Number(clicked.split("button").join("")-1); you are trying to decrease something that is still a String and then convert it to a number. Maybe Number(clicked.split("button").join(""))-1; will help with the error.

What is name of your buttons in loadTexts?

[fusionPT]

Hi,
the name of the buttons are: "button1", "button2", ...
It's strange because it works as a document class...

[_kp]

Seems I didn't read the whole error message ;)

The error occurs in your Parse function, after calling it with with Parse(myXML.button); in xmlLoaded function.

Since it works as a document class I think if this[buttonAttr[item]] refers to button1, button2, ... on stage, it should be changed to stage[buttonAttr[item]].

[fusionPT]

No, it still doesn´t work. I'm sure the problem is there but i can't figure it out. Maybe i have to include that in a ADDED_TO_STAGE?

I'll include the files so if it helps. it needs the as3 caurina in order to work.

Thank you.
