Strange error about View3D and CameraHover3D Software: Away3D 3.x

Kissa, Newbie Posted: 10 October 2011 12:43 PM Total Posts: 4 Hello, Somebody could explain me that strange error I don’t understand. The following code is ok : `package{ import flash.display.Sprite; import away3d.containers.View3D; import away3d.cameras.HoverCamera3D; public class HoverCam extends Sprite{ private var view=new View3D(); public function HoverCam(){ view.camera=new HoverCamera3D(); view.camera.hover(); } } }` But if I specify the type of view: `private var view:View3D=new View3D();` I get the error that method hover() is not defined, why ?!
Fabrice Closier, Administrator Posted: 10 October 2011 07:24 PM Total Posts: 1265 [ # 1 ] Probably because the getter do not return a type HoverCamera3D but Camera3D. So either you declare a class var myHovercam:HoverCamera3D = new HovrCamera3D and assign it to the view. view.camera = myHovercam. You can then say myHovercam.hover(); or cast to the type. (view.camera as HoverCamera3D).hover();
