Using 'File' to save scene object locations to rebuild later in AS3

Question

I am attempting to use the \'File\' function in ActionScript 3 to save the following information:

I have varying draggable display objects in the scene, the amount a

Answer 1

I usually use SharedObject, by saving the number of objects with their locations ,scale ,rotation , .. etc. as an array (usually multidimensional array).

this example is tested :

first make a movie clip giving it "mc" as a name in the ActionScript Linkage add any graphics you like (this MovieClip will be the objects to be saved later ) then add the following script

////////// get random values for each object
var speed:Number ;
var yPosition:Number ;
var size:Number ;

this.width = size;
this.height = size;
this.y = yPosition ;




//// Moving the MovieClip from Left to right 
function moving(e:Event):void
{
    this.x += speed ;
    if(this.x > 550)
        {
    this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,moving);
    MovieClip(parent).removeChild(this);
        }

}
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,moving);

in the root stage of the project add :

import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;




var num:int = 0 ;
var mmc:MovieClip  ;
var mySharedObj:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("SavingStatus"); //// SharedObject to save info


function init()
{
if (!mySharedObj.data.savedArray)
{
    ///// first run No datat saved
    this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,addingmcs)
}else {
    ///// Laoding previusly saved data
    loading();
}
}


init() ;

/////////////// adding MovieClips to stage /////
function addingmcs(e:Event):void
{
num +=1 ;
if(num > 20){
    num = 0 ;
    mmc = new mc ;
    mmc.speed = 2 + (5 * Math.random()) ;
    mmc.yPosition  = 500 * Math.random() ;
    mmc.size  = 50 + 10 * Math.random() ;
    this.addChild(mmc); 
}
}
