ActionScript 2.0 :: Use _parent 2 Times?
Dec 6, 2006
I would like to make a game for christmas. How can i use _parent 2 times? i mean, i have a kinda complicated MovieClip, it's movieclip in movieclip, i think 4, and i want to a script do nextframe to the second parent folder.
Code:
ROOT->Movieclip->2nd Movieclip->3rd Movieclip->4th movieclip.
The 4th movieclip when gets to a keyframe, it activates a script, to do nextFrame() in 2nd movieclip. I tried _parent._parent.nextFrame() and also _parent(2).nextFrame() but they didnt work.
I wanna know how can i jump up 2?

I used the tutorial on Kirupa on loading external swf's. Before writing here I tried to find an answer in the forums, but no luck so here I go.[URL]..If you look at my files: Open portfolio.swf and hit one of the first two images (that initially flies in). here you will see that if you hit the second one, the rpesent one displayed makes an outro and the second one makes an intro, PERFECT!
Now, if you open default.swf (that has portfolio.swf loaded into a movie clip as you can see by looking at the source) and if you hit the second image, the first one makes the outro, and then makes an intro. So the shift to the second one is not happenening. Please, can someone help me to make this happen?

i'm new to AS3. how do i go about executing a custom function n number of times and then executing another function n number of times repeatedly?
eg.
function firstOne():void { }
function secondOne():void { }
i need firstOne() executed say 3 times and then secondOne() 3 times and then firstOne 3 times again and so on. i'm trying to move a movieclip 3 times to the left and then 3 times to the right continuously.

I have a movie clip that has the following code:
on (release) {
_root.rightMenu_mc.gotoAndStop("Animation");
}
It works fine the way it is but I read that it is better to use relatives paths rather than _root all the time but when I change it to _parent.rightMenu_mc.gotoAndStop("Animation"); it doesn't work anymore.

I have several SWFs that I need to work when loaded into another container SWF file as well as work when they are stand-alone SWF files. Because of this, in circumstances where a movieClip is being talked to from another MovieClip I am using _parent as opposed to _root. It has been working fine until now. I have one circumstance that only works with _root and will not work with _parent. _root.content_mc.anim_mc.screenShots_mc.gotoAndSto p(2); Obvously this works fine as a stand alone but not of course once loaded into the container movie.

I am trying to something like the following:
createEmptyMovieClip("iconLoad"+ i, .i+100);
["iconLoad" + i].iconName = IconArray[i];
loadMovie("pIcon.swf",["iconLoad" + i]);
In the movie pIcon.swf there is a local variable iconName. I am trying to set this variable from the above code (2nd line).

I have a _parent movieclip that receives mouse events and I want the clips inside the _parent clip (child clips) to receive mouse events also, but because of the _parent's mouse event handlers, the child clips are "interfered" with, or not received....how do I make it so both the _parent and the child clips can receive mouse events?

What I would like to have happen is when I click on a button, a movie clip rolls out. When I click on that same button a second time, I want the movie clip to roll back in. Right now it works for me to click on the button once and my movie clip roll out, but when I click on it again, it just rolls out again. Here is what Im working with so far:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var inTween:Tween;

What happens if I have a previously allocated variable (new), then I set such variable to null in order to mark it for GC but then a few seconds later I call new again on it (not knowing if it has been GCed), and the GC still has not cleaned the memory address containing the variable.Would the first (new) allocation be garbage collected
