ActionScript 3.0 :: Unable To Use Child Of The Caller With Send To Back Function?

Sep 30, 2010

I'm trying to build a class for objects in my prog that can by manipulated in various ways.. I want right clicking them to send them to back, and left clicking, bring them to the front.

ActionScript Code:
package  {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

[code]....

When I run it, however, I get ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.So something's not lining up, but I'm not sure how to write it so it'll work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Error #2025: The Supplied DisplayObject Must Be A Child Of The Caller. - Get When Run The RemoveMovie Function?

Apr 9, 2010

I have tried to grasp this concept, but cannot believe the cluster F that as3 has done with loading a swf and then removing it.Whereas in As2, you would simply loadMovie into a movieClip's instance name. If you wanted it gone, you could simply replace it with something new, or unloadMovie. Simple.Now...to even load a movie in...you have to create variables, create a movie clip, create a loader, then create a url request, then load that url request into the loader, then addchild so that the loader is on the stage? And to remove it, is next to impossible.So here is my code..

function loadMovie (){
var my_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var my_Loader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....

That code when tested gives me....Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. When I try to run the removeMovie function.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting 4 Parameter Arguments Into A Function From XML?

Jan 1, 2010

I'm designing a game that uses this function;

function moveBars(Bl:Number,Gr:Number,Or:Number,Ye:Number)
{
blueBar_mc.scaleX += Bl;
greenBar_mc.scaleX += Gr;
orangeBar_mc.scaleX += Or;
yellowBar_mc.scaleX += Ye;
}

When moveBars is called, the length of the 4 colored bars change to indicate how the player is doing in different areas of the game, like so; moveBars(.1,-.2,.3,-.1)

My problem; I need to store the moveBars parameter arguments in XML like so;

<myArgs> .1,-.2,.3,-.1 </myArgs>

But I can't find the way to get those 4 numbers into the moveBars parameters from the XML doc. Is there a way to do this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Arguments To Function?

Oct 8, 2009

I have a movie clip that contains several movie clips, only one of which should be shown at a time. Which one is shown, depends on what buttons the user selects.Having trouble with the syntax for passing the argument in a button to the function that controls the tweening of the clips. (When I hard code the references into the function, it works, so I know the basic function is ok).There's a clip called 'slide1_mc' which contains various MC's to be shown based on user selection (in this case, using 'system' clip as the first one already showing). Here's the code in the parent clip of that item:

Code:
var currSection = slide1_mc.system_mc;
function changeSection(newSection):Void {
TweenLite.to(currSection,.3,{_yscale:200, _xscale:200, _alpha:0});

[code]....

Here's one of serveral buttons that will control the content to be seen:

The code in the button is:

Code:
var changer = slide1_mc.software_mc;
smallButton.onPress = function() {
_parent.changeSection(changer);
};

So - the initial part of my function works so I know my 'external' initializing of "currSection" is working (that clip is zooming/fading out)... but then the clip that I want to fade in isn't doing anything.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Calling Function (with Arguments) From Parameter

Aug 3, 2010

Let's say I have a function that accepts a function and some arguments as parameters. Something like:

ActionScript Code:
function myFunction(func:Function,args:Array):Void{
// do something awesome here
};

How would I go about calling this function with the arguments in args? It's pretty simple to call a function without any arguments, but calling it with them..

As an example:

ActionScript Code:
// I'd like this call
myFunction(trace,["Hello world!"]);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Arguments Function OnResult?

Oct 5, 2010

I have a main class that is running an external sub class which loads my data (loads data via flash remoting on a ColdFusion server). No problems loading the data; however, I am trying to run a function from the main class on the sub class function onResult. I do not have problems running functions in the sub class in general, only in the responder result function. Problem: My problem is that I can't pass the main class through the function onResult because I get a error with the arguments.Here's what some of the code look likes:

function init(){
myService2.connect("URLgateway");
var responder:Responder = new Responder(onResult, onFault);

Actionscript :: Calling Function With Unknown Arguments Count

Mar 4, 2012

For example i have function declared in AS3.0 class:

private function log():void{
// working with arguments directly here
}

I'm calling:

log('some stuff',object,array,etc);

Then i'm calling:

log('ok');

Ofc FlashBuilder throws exception with: type 1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0

In javascript it's possible. But in AS not, isn't it's ECMA based? Why so strict...

Update

Ok nvm. Created like that atm: log(m1:*=null,m2:*=null,m3:*=null,m4:*=null,m5:*=null):void{}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Function Arguments Via Call From ContextMenuItem?

Feb 10, 2009

Is there any way to pass an argument to a function being called by a ContextMenuItem?The effect I want would be what one might expect from this pseudocode:

Code:
var cm = new ContextMenuItem("Start Alt", set_row_style('start_alt_here'), separatorBefore=true, enabled=true, visible=true);

Which obviously doesn't work, or I wouldn't be asking.So far I've tried using the captions as a basis for a switch condition, which works.

Code:
function set_row_style(obj, cm) {
switch (cm.caption) {
case 'start_alt_here' :
...

But I'd rather not use an arbitrary string as part of a function.The only other option I see is using a listener for each ContextMenuItem, then calling the function with its arguments from there.Is there any more direct a way to pass an argument to a function from a ContextMenuItem?
