symbol question

[cy-zhang-yekai]

"I assume that you want to create new instance of symbol in library by specifying symbol's name in runtime. Is this correct understanding?"

yes.would you tell me how to do that.If possible,I need a simple example...
thank you so much...

[HiroyukiHaga]

Yes.
LWF allows you to instantiate symbols in library during runtime with Movie.AttachMovie() method.

Overview

// instantiate symbol named "symbol_linkage_name".
// New instance's name is "name_of_new_instance", and the instance is attached to rootMovie.

lwf.rootMovie.AttachMovie("symbol_linkage_name", "name_of_new_instance");

Steps

1. Open your.fla file.
2. In Library tab, make sure that your symbol's "AS Linkage" has proper name like "symbol_linkage_name".
3. Publish it to swf file.
4. Convert from swf to lwf file.
5. Open "your_swf_file_name.linkages" text file in .lwfdata folder. The *.linkage text file will contains linkage name that specified in step 2 like "symbol_linkage_name : 0".
   1. If not, the linkage name is not published properly. Go to step 2
6. It's ready to instantiate it call following after lwf's initialization. The "symbol_linkage_name" would be added to the stage.

lwf.rootMovie.AttachMovie("symbol_linkage_name", "name_of_new_instance");

thank you very much..i'll try it.

[cy-zhang-yekai]

tried four times，and not success。
i want to do it in unity.so...can you tell me in details of process.

[HiroyukiHaga]

O.K. I've uploaded full-set example to demonstrate create symbol from library.

Source

• Flash : https://github.com/gree/lwf-demo/blob/master/flash/attach_movies_from_library.fla
• Unity Project: https://github.com/gree/lwf-demo/tree/master/unity/attach_movies_from_library

Build

• Unity Web Player : http://gree.github.io/lwf-demo/unity/attach_movies_from_library/attach_movies_from_library.html
  • Click "Attach movie form..." create new symbol from library.

This example will solve your issue.
If you have any questions on this example, please let me know,

[cy-zhang-yekai]

thank you ,the example is worked but in my case ,png is been texture atlas,it not display.....What shall i do?

[HiroyukiHaga]

O.K. I'd like to take a look it. Please wait a moment.

[cy-zhang-yekai]

ok.thx!

[HiroyukiHaga]

Here we go:)

Source

• Flash : https://github.com/gree/lwf-demo/blob/master/flash/sprite_atlas.fla
• Unity : https://github.com/gree/lwf-demo/tree/master/unity/attach_movies_from_library_sprite
  • Symbol's linkage name is "lightening"

Build

• http://gree.github.io/lwf-demo/unity/attach_movies_from_library_sprite/attach_movies_from_library_sprite.html

Step to publish

1. Open sprite_atlas.fla.
2. Publish with Commands/LWF_Publish. bitmaps are expoerted to sprite_atlas.bitmap folder.
3. Create texture sheet with Texture Packer like /Applications/TexturePacker.app/Contents/MacOS/TexturePacker --opt RGBA4444 --scale 1.0 --format json --data sprite_atlas.json --sheet "sprite_atlas_texture.png" sprite_atlas.bitmap/*
4. Convert swf to lwf with texture sheet information like : swf2lwf sprite_atlas.swf sprite_atlas.json
5. Open Unity project, and import these
6. Call lwf.rootMovie.AttachMovie("lightening").

[cy-zhang-yekai]

thank you so much!it worked...and more question. Is there anyway to change the lwf animation by symbol name?
For example,i need symbol name "wait" work 3 seconds for loop,More than 3 seconds change to symbol "attack" and not want loop, just one time.

[HiroyukiHaga]

I'm happy to hear that this issue has been resolved.
Can you please create another issue for symbol question?
