ActionScript 3.0 :: Error 1120: Access Of Undefined Property Parent + Movieclip(parent)?

Mar 15, 2011

I 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 2.0 :: Access A Function Of The Parent Of An MC?

Oct 5, 2005

Well- actually, my problem is a bit more abstract than this thread's title suggests..ere's the setup:I have a parent function (called "Game") with a couple of subfunctions.There is one subfunction ("Game.prototype.spawnBonus") that, as the name suggests, spawns a Bonus Item by duplicating a movieclip.The duplicate movieclip is created on "_root"-level and has an onEnterFrame attached to it that checks whether a certain stage is met (all this works).Now the problem is, when the case is met, I need to access a subfunction of "Game" and pass it the MC's ID to fade out the Bonus Item. Like so:[AS]Game.prototype.fadeBonus =

function(number) {
// just some stuff to fade out the MC with the number
// passed through the value "number". This works well,

ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Child.swf Function From Parent.swf?

Dec 22, 2008

I have to access a function in child swf from parent swf. This child swf gets loaded into a canvas object in parent.swf. Everything works fine but I'm unable to call any function that was in child.swf. My code is

Code:
var swf1:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();
swf1.source = "CHILD.swf";
can.addchild(swf1);

I read on google and then I tried this in parent.swf's code

Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("CHILD.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);
canvas.addchild(myloader);

Now this one throws up a runtime error TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Loader@5934b01 to mx.core.IUIComponent.

I also tried this

Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("CHILD.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);

[Code]....

But in this case my swf does not show up at all and there are no runtime errors too!

How do I resolve this error and how do I then access the function in child.swf?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Access Nested MC From Parent Class

Jan 15, 2010

Ok im rather new to flash so ill do best i can to describe this. I have a HealthBar movie clip with 3 layers, bottom layer is just a red rectangle, middle layer is a green rectangle that is a movie clip, and the top layer is just a border. the green rectangle movie clip has an instance name of bar. i put my HealthBar on my stage with an instance name of healthBar and i change it when the players health goes down by calling _root.healthBar.bar._xscale = health where health is 0-100.

this works all fine and dandy. now i have a movie clip of MiniBoss with an instance name of miniBoss# where # is a number of the layer depth when it is created. in the MiniBoss movie clip i have an instance of the HealthBar with an instance name of bossHealthBar. i tried to call from within the MiniBoss class bossHealthBar.bar._xscale = health but i get an error that there is no property of bossHealthBar.bar._xscale. how do i access the bar in the HealthBar in the MiniBoss clip from the MiniBoss class in its onEnterFrame() method?

Flex :: Parent App Access Versus Events In Modules

Feb 2, 2010

Inspired by this Flex question, is it seen as better practice to dispatch an event back to the parent app, as opposed to calling a method on the instance of the parent app, from within a module? To me it seems that the module shouldn't know what methods are available at the parent, as such approach leads to tight coupling.
