I loaded an external SWF file to my timeline using MovieClipLoader method. myMCL1.loadClip("game.swf", 5); It loaded fine. But then with a click of a button I need to go to the next frame and I want this MC to go away. I've tried everything I knew:
delete.myMCL1("game.swf").onEnterFrame;
myMCL1.onEnterFrame = unloadMovie;
delete myMCL1.onEnterFrame;

I have a movie with multiple scenes. scene 1 and scene 2. i have an intro and a few other things that go on in Scene 1 but it's all done with AS other than the background image. I made a button with nextScene(); in the on(press). When clicked, it goes to the next scene (1 frame with a stop() action). The problem is that it continues to put all the stuff from Scene 1 on there. So is there a way to either flush everything from Scene 1 with the on(press) as well or just stop it from doing any more functions once the button is pressed?

remove child from the timeline. I have attached this sample file. I get "1120: Access of undefined property board." error when I publish it.Here is what I'm doing:
Open button: This will create a child with movieclip
show_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showBoard);
function showBoard(event:MouseEvent):void{
var board:Board = new Board();[code]..........
Here is the Error I get when I publish it: 1120: Access of undefined property board.
I know it's not good form to place code on the timeline in as3 since its all coded from classes and the document main class, but isnt it easier to have something like...
Code:
removeChild(this); At the end of the timeline inside a movieclip... Instead of having to do something like this:

Btw: would the first line of code I typed work? I haven't tried it.

I supposed that using of transform class remove every tween ,even tween on timeline. Is possible to cancle removing of animation and keep colorTransform???[URL]..
I have had tis problem before and thought I was getting better at resolving it.
Each one seems to be unique:
I have an MC that is contained with in another MovieClip,This second movie clip has a UILoader that auto loads an swf file, which has a three_D rotating cube.The swf loads great everything works but when I hit a button that target another place in the timeline I get this error a zillion times[code]...

View 1 RepliesSomeone the other day provided me with this code to a remove a child from the main timeline from within a movieclip.
parent.removeChild(MovieClip(parent).mc1);
This works fine, but how can I write an if statement to test if its in the display list before removing it?
As I'm getting an error if I try to remove it once its already been removed.
I am trying to remove an event when the timeline move to another frame than 20, but obviously there is sth wrong.

I've read similar problems in other posts but I can't seem to find the right solution. I'm trying to convert an AS2 project to AS3. The old project has a series of buttons which load an external swf into an empty movieclip on the stage. Pretty simple using loadMovie/unloadMovie. I'm able to load the external file using the loader object[code]...
My problem occurs when I try to load another movie. I use the same function and just pass the external movie name. I can remove the external movie from my placeholder movieclip so it is not visible on the stage but it still plays. I can hear the audio as the new movie is playing and get output errors because the first movie is firing off code that can't complete.
Im once again stuck on actionscript 3.0. I am currently trying to load an external swf into my current swf by using a button. This works perfectly.I then made a button to unload my swf. This works too.
Actionscript Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("Extswf.swf");var myloader:Loader=new Loader();myloader.load(myrequest);open_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickButton);close_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, unloadFunction);function clickButton(event:MouseEvent):void{ stage.addChild(myloader); function unloadFunction(event:Event):void{ stage.removeChild(myloader);}
Looking at this gave me a new idea, which I have seen being done in Actionscript 2.0.Instead of having a close button inside my current swf file, I would like to have the close button INSIDE "Extswf.swf". This would allow me to make the swf exactly what my original idea wanted it to be.
I have a menu with buttons on the stage that when clicked load external swf but the problem, although i can remove them from the stage, is that they are still playing which gives my site performance problems. I gave weak references to the Event Listeners but i didn�t remove them.Here�s the code:
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
[code]...
How can i remove each the listeners from each swf so that the site doesn�t perform so slow?
I have managed to load external swf's fine and also unload them when a new one is loaded, but now I need the swf's that are loaded to appear below (meaning on a lower layer effectively) than my navigation, which is in the main swf. I can get that to happen by creating a movieClip on the stage on a layer beneath the one my navigation is on and loading the swf into that mc, but then I don't know how to clear the swf from that mc so another one can load there in it's place.
Here is the code I have so far:
Code:
//Universal Button Function
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
[Code]....
I've used the following frame action with 2.0. for loading external swf to blank mc on stage, scale it and then removing it by buttons. load_btn. onRelease = function() {movie_mc.loadMovie("webdesign.swf");movie_mc._xscale = 70;movie_mc._yscale = 70;}remove_btn.onRelease = function() {movie_mc.unloadMovie();}I found that it is not working anymore with 3.0.
View 2 RepliesI have 4 empty movieclips called holderMC1/2/3/4 on 4 frames of the main timeline. Each movieclip loads in an external swf with this code:
var swfLoader4:Loader = new Loader();
holderMC4.addChild(swfLoader4);
var bgURL4:URLRequest = new URLRequest("F1_h.swf");
swfLoader4.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadProdComplete4);
swfLoader4.load(bgURL4);
function loadProdComplete4(e:Event):void {
trace("file loaded4");
}
I have 4 buttons which on click goes to 4 frame labels on the main timeline corresponding with the 4 movieclips. Very simple - works fine - except the swfs don't unload properly, so the video in the external swfs keeps playing in the background when a new swf has been loaded.
I have read many many post and I don't find the answer of how to remove completely a swf load external.Every time I load and unload I see the windows memory task manager and see that the memory increase and don't reduce when remove child.
this is my code:
var oneLoader=new Loader();
bt1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swf1);

I'm creating a website for a cabin and I want the users to be able to view a calendar that exists on the reservations website. The calendar is constantly updating as people are reserving cabins. I want this calendar to dynamically load from the external server onto my website for people to view. Then once they view it - I want to remove it on the next mouse click. Right now it stays and ends up on every page in the website. I think it should be easy and I have some sort of misunderstanding of how to do it. I have literally spent days trying to get this stupid thing to work. It's driving me crazy!!! Here's what I have right now.

I searched the forum and perhaps found some relevant solutions, yet I still don't get it. How do I make simple "stop()", "play()", and check "currentFrame" on the main timeline from an AS3 Class file? I have an older AS2 Flash timeline animation that I'm converting to AS3, and also importing an AS3 swf into. Everything works fine, except I had to remove the "stop()" on the main timeline (so the animation does not loop), and trying to do that from the document main .as file. I get an error when trying to access "currentFrame" of the stage.

child.swf is loaded in parent.swf

I have developed a touchscreen application that works perfectly fine except for the memory issue. Basically, the touchscreen app works kinda like a website with navgation on the side and content displaying next to it. I separeate each section into external swfs, and load each one up when it is needed, thinking it would reduce memory used on the pc. But unlike actionscript 2, AS 3 would not remove the external swfs from the memory. You can remove it from the stage and you won't see it, but the swf will still stay in the memory! So... as you navigate through the app, loading up all these external swf, even I do loader.unloadAndStop();, the swf is still there, and they just keep piling up in the memory as you navigate from the app. After leaving the touchscreen for a day or 2, having all these users naviage through it, all the external swfs will just completely consume all the resources and freeze the pc.

One being ... at the moment when a FLVPlayback is imported onto the stage and a user clicks on the exit button before the video it has fully loaded onto the stage, the video keeps loading in the background. I want it to be completely removed and stop loading when the exit button is click... because at the moment it slows the users internet down and the sound also plays in the background when its been fully loaded... The video interface seem to be removed but not the whole thing.
It is also happening to me when I use addChild to load a external JPEG... if the user exits before it is fully loaded to the stage... it keeps loading in the background.[code]...
