ActionScript 3.0 :: Error 1120: Access Of Undefined Property Parent + Movieclip(parent)?
Mar 15, 2011I am trying to access a function that is on my document class for my AS3 project, from a nested class. That is, the Document Class calls Class A which then calls Class B. So I am trying to access a function from Class B, I am trying to use MovieClip(parent).function(); but I am getting error 1120. The MovieClip(parent) (fixed to reflect my document class, etc) works when I try it from other classes but not from this nested class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cross Fade Effect - Changing Parent Of Object
Oct 20, 2009I'm trying to do a cross-fade effect for my gallery. To do that, I'm using two movieclips, one that holds the image currently displayed, and another one that holds the image that should be displayed next. When the coming image is loaded, the cross-fade effect should happen, the container that holds the image that was on stage should be cleared out, then the image in the other container should be displaced to the former container.
Here's my code so far:
function loadFirstImage():void {
imageLoader = new Loader();
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, addFirstImage);
imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(myImages[0].url));
currentImage = new MovieClip();

ActionScript 2.0 :: HitTest And Changing Scales And X-y Positions Of Parent Clips?
Sep 29, 2005I'm just wondering if hitTest can be affected by the changing x,y coordinates or the changing scale of the parent clips. My platform engine doesn't seem to work everytime I try to add a script to a parenting clip (of a playable character and a computer character) that changes the x and y values of that clip as well as the scale (simulating a camera that keeps both characters in focus).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Positioning Parent MC In Order To Center Child MC On Parent's Parent MC
Feb 5, 2010[code]All clips are squared.Ok, on the PlayerPlane, there are little soldiers, which have hotkeys. The effect I'm trying to create is I want to position the GameStage so that the currently selected soldier appears in the center of the GameClicker clip.The GameStage is movable by the player (to scan other areas of the map)by holding the CTRL key, so it's easy to kinda lose track of where your players are.I have tried using localTo Global and globalToLocal techniques, but I think I'm lost on the actual math of getting the GameStage to move the correct distance so that the selected soldier is centered to the GameClicker.[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Timeline Of Parent Movieclip?
Jan 14, 2009I've just swiched over from FL8 to FL CS4 (3 days ago). I'm learning AS3 at the moment but am on a deadline with a project (a bit over it actualy) which uses AS3
I have a movieclip (container_mc) on the main timeline which holds all the animation and a timer (timer1_mc).When container_mc reaches frame 2 it stops and a timer (timer1_mc) starts running.When the timer finishes, container_mc should continue to the next frame.The code I have to do that (from the timer1_mc) is:
if (d> 260) {
parent.container_mc.nextFrame();
trace("blabla");[code]....
This doesn't work, it gives me the error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property container_mc through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer.
