can I resize a display object (container) without its contents (children) are resized?
For example, in the following code when I resize the green square, red is also resized. I wanted to resize only the green.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
var sprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
sprite.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000);

i'm new to AS3 and i was wondering what is the best way to remove a child at a point. i tried Holder.removeChild(Holder.getObjectsUnderPoint(new Point(exampleX, exampleY))[0]); however that returned ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
View 2 RepliesIs there a simple way to completely empty a display object container regardless of what it contains, including if it's already empty? In other words, without determining its children and using removeChild on each?
View 2 RepliesFor some reason below is not working. It is probably very obvious but I am not seeing it. As soon as I comment out the container mc variable and just add Child to root timeline I see everything which means me container is not being added to the stage correctly.
stop();
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var i:int = 0;
var a:Number = 10;
var ageString:String;
var ageText:Array = new Array();

How do I remove all children from a display object container? I want to make sure that when I re-enter a particular frame that there are no imageLoaders loaded into my photoGallery.
View 2 Replieslets say i have 2 classes in the same package.and i add the same event listener to each of them, for example i add event.resize to some display object container in both of them.how can i prevent the code attached to that listener to execute in one of the classes if that event happens?
View 2 RepliesThis has to be simple, if only I knew how. I'm an AS3 newbie, and am having difficulty setting up multiple specific EventListeners within a code generated display object container.
I am generating a 'page' (Sprite) with a heap of 'cards' (Sprites) on it. Each of those cards, in turn, contains a selection of text boxes and other objects generated from database output using a 'for' loop. My hope is to attach an EventListener to each 'card' so that a MouseEvent will let me manipulate the data that lead to the content of that actual card (the i-th iteration of my for loop). I've been playing with everything I can think of (limited repertoire of thoughts though) and the best I've managed is for my EventListener to access the final set of data, whichever 'card' I click on. I've summarised and attached my code for the function, how to get back to the i-set of data from the EventListener attached to the i-th card. I can handle the PHP and MySQL side of things but am fumbling my way into the OOP of AS3.
Here's the class

I am facing a issue in Flash container. I am having a project which has main container which call different SWFs into it. Now I call this main container file into another container, and their problem starts. Many option doesn't work properly which generally have _root, _parent etc...
If I want to run project (main container SWF and child SWFs) into another container file which place on a website. I want to show whole project from this container file so what I need to do?
This is the error I am getting....This is the situation I am using addChild and removeChild. I have two main movieclips that this is based around. workss_mc and work_mc. workss_mc is the slideshow, work_mc is the selection grid. When you click on an object in work_mc I am adding adding a child (workss_mc) and removing work_mc at the same time. That works fine; however, in workss_mc I have a back button, this back button is used to remove works_mc once it is removed it sends you back to work_mc. Once you are back on work_mc everything should work completely the same, however, it's like it's ignoring the code.Here is the code for the button:
Code:
urbanthmb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
function clickHandler(event:Event) {
var workss_mc = new mc_workss();[code].......

I have been getting this error after a bunch of different ways of trying this. I am attempting to create a new instance of my movieclip which displays external images via xml. I want a new instance of the movieclip every other frame and need to be able to remove each instance on every other frame. It will work going forwards, with a remove child call but as soon as I go back a frame, the error pops up.
i need some help to understand how to access a property of a child of a DisplayObject. within a class i have an object with the variable name: btnLMain i have assigned it a name property: btnLMain.name = "btnL";
btnLMain also has a property: btnLMain.clickNum = 0; // thats the one i need to access when i instantiate the class (btnL) containing this code in the parent class i need to access the property "clickNum" so i did this:

how to access a property of a child of a DisplayObject.
within a class i have an object with the variable name: btnLMain i have assigned it a name property: btnLMain.name = "btnLMain"; btnLMain also has a property: btnLMain.clickNum = 0; // thats the one i need to access when i instantiate the class (btnL) containing this code in the parent class i need to access the property "clickNum" so i did this:
var dispObj:DisplayObject = btnL.getChildByName(btnLMain);
displayObj.clickNum++;
but then i get the error: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property clickNum through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.
so then i reviewed documentation and from what i understand i am not able to access the property of the child of the DisplayObject as it is a static property...
so now i am trying to figure out how to access that property in the child Class.

View 6 RepliesThis code throws an error:
if (modalMessage != null && contains(modalMessage)) {
removeChild(modalMessage); // the error is here
modalMessage = null;
}
The Error is:
[Fault] exception, information=ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
How can this be? I am checking if it is a child beforehand.
I encapsulate my addChild so that I can have an array of all the objects that are on stage for later garbage collection. this is how I do so [code]each gameObject has a property called garbage that is a boolean that is set when ready to be removed. When I set it to tree, this is what happens.ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

I have a set of buttons which trigger menu panels to tween up from below the screen. I want these menu panels to be displayed behind the buttons (which are displayed on the button edge of the screen). So I add the menus to the parent container, then I add the buttons, so that the menus would be behind the buttons and getChildIndex(buttons) = 1 and getChildIndex(menus) = 0.
The menus are correctly displayed behind the buttons when I comment out the tween code. But when I implement the tweens and start the tween of the menus, they do their motion tween but are displayed in front of the buttons instead of behind; somehow their display object index order got screwed up.from the Menu class:
Code:
this.tweenIn = new Tween(this, "y", Regular.easeOut, stageHeight, stageHeight - this.height, 2, true);
this.tweenOut = new Tween(this, "y", Regular.easeOut, stageHeight - this.height, stageHeight, 2, true);[code].....

I have a swf file that is loaded via addChild on frame 11, once the animation of this swf file has finished playing, the main swf then goes back to frame 1. However, this is where this issue comes in. Even though I have removed the child once, it seems to keep on trying to remove it again and again, this goes in to a continuous loop.
