    <p>I've the following code in my displayandmove.as file:</p> <pre> package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class FigureConstruct extends MovieClip { public function displayandmove() { this.height = stage.stageHeight/5; this.width = stage.stageWidth/5; } } } </pre> <p>And I have the following on frame 1 of my displayandmove.fla:</p> <pre> var figure:FigureConstruct = new FigureConstruct(); stage.addChild(figure); figure.x = stage.stageWidth/2; figure.y = stage.stageHeight/2; </pre> <p>These files are in the same directory. In my FLA library I have my figure MovieClip and it ha a Class of "FigureConstruct" and base class of "flash.display.MovieClip". </p> <p>Currently the code above works fine because I figured out that if I execute the object size code as a construct -- using the file name as the function name -- it works.</p> <p>What I originally intended to do was to have my function named "sizeFigure()" in my AS file and then call "figure.sizeFigure();" after "stage.addChild(figure);" on frame 1 of my FLA.</p> <p>This output </p> <blockquote> <p>Error #1006: value is not a function.</p> </blockquote> <p>Can anyone explain what I am missing to get this to execute as a function rather than as a constructor?</p> <p>I thought maybe I am goofing up when I set my Class and Base Class pointers for the library object... but not sure.</p> <p>PS - Sorry if I am misusing terms, still nailing those down as I go.</p> <p><b>Edit: Below is the original code that does not seem to work until after I changed the name of my function to the name of the file, making it the class constructor. The above version works, below does not.</b></p> <p>displayandmove.as</p> <pre> package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class FigureConstruct extends MovieClip { public function sizeFigure() { this.height = stage.stageHeight/5; this.width = stage.stageWidth/5; } } } </pre> <p>displayandmove.fla:</p> <pre> var figure:FigureConstruct = new FigureConstruct(); stage.addChild(figure); figure.sizeFigure(); figure.x = stage.stageWidth/2; figure.y = stage.stageHeight/2; </pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
