ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing A Bunch Of Objects Added At Runtime Via A Timer?
Sep 23, 2011After adding an image to the stage, turning it into a Movie clip, and setting linkage in library to Export for Actionscript, I'm now using a timer to add a bunch of roses to the stage as a video plays.How can I get rid of all these clips once the video is over?Do I need to add all of them into an extra container and then just removeChild that container at the end? Or do I need to use something like getNumberOfChildren and then create a loop that removes them one by one?The clips (myRose) are fairly small and do not have any event listeners added to them. I just use TweenMax to move them from top to bottom of the screen.

May 13, 2010I'm looking for ways to use movieclips that I've added on the stage in ActionScript. I can't just adress the movieclip by its name because apparently AS3 won't recognize a movieclip name if you haven't created it within the script.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Individual Listbox Items Linking To Individual External Text Files?

View 13 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Objects Added To Sprite / MC Not Appearing
Jun 24, 2010I've been working on building a game and encountered a strange problem this morning when instead of adding objects directly to the stage I needed to add them to a Sprite (I also tried this with a MovieClip) which was on the stage instead and they did not appear. And yes, before anyone says it, the MC/Sprite that I'm adding the objects to has definitely been added to the stage, I've made that mistake before and don't plan on making it again
Essentially I have been building the game's levels using various different objects (rectangles, circles etc) built in the Box2D physics engine and with attached sprites to represent them to the user. When creating each of these object I supply a DisplayObjectContainer in which the sprite representing the object should be placed. Up until now I have been simply been supplying my core game class as the DisplayObjectContainer, with no problems whatsoever - everything is displaying fine.
A new level design, however, will require me to apply a mask to the entire level (but not the GUI) so I decided to place all the level objects within a MovieClip or Sprite instead. I have created the new sprite as such:
levelObjects = new Sprite();levelObjects.x = levelObjects.y = 0; //Just to make surelevelObjects.width = GameProperties.stageWidth;levelObjects.height = GameProperties.stageHeight;levelObjects.visible = true; //Just to make sureaddChild(levelObjects)
And have been supplying this sprite to the level objects as a DisplayObjectContainer instead of the core game class. Everything is getting added to the stage as I can click on things and the sounds associated with the game objects are playing correctly, but nothing is actually visible! As I mentioned above I tried this using a MovieClip instead but got the same result.
Added Children But Objects Not Displaying In Flash
May 11, 2011I'm adding a series of objects dynamically to my flash movie from xml but they won't appear when I run the movie. I have nearly identical code adding objects in a different swf that works just fine. I have tested this 8 ways from Sunday including ensuring that they were added to the container which is a child of the main MovieClip (tested the display list), that they were added to stage (had a listener for ADDED_TO_STAGE) and that their position was correct (displayed x,y values and compared them to mouseX & mouseY values). They are in the correct place in the display list. Still there are no objects. The class is linked correctly, I have movie clips in the library.[code]

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: AddChildAt - Performance - Add Objects At Runtime?
Mar 24, 2010I was wondering if addChildAt is slower than addChild, and if so, how bad it is. I want to add objects at runtime, constantly, but they must be behind the player, so I'd use addChildAt to index 0, I figured. However, would this damage my performance? It's for my scrolling platform engine, I want buildings in the 'background' only on the display list when they actually can be seen (code for this is working fine, runs at about 160 FPS last time I checked).
So, should I look into another solution? The only other solution I know of is to have a second 'layer' sprite in the engine, but since it's scrolling, I'd have to scroll 2 sprites all the time. Don't know the best thing to do here

"Game" is a MC that I added to the stage in the flash developing environment.[code]This method is a bit cumbersome though.

How can I set up these children so that I can access them directly without the extra steps?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Manipulating Movie Clip Objects At Runtime?
Mar 19, 2007I am fairly new to Flash and action script as a whole, and would like to know how one can write a script that allows users to rescale/ resize and rotate movie clip objects at runtime.I.e. When a user moves their cursor over an object on the floor plan, I would like for them to be able to either resize the object or rotate it.
After trawling the web, I am still yet to find an existing API that I can use to build my floor planner in Flash. However, I did stumble across the 'Space planner' created by Icovia for architects and interior designers alike. If you visit the icovia web site at http:[url].....and click on 'Test Drive' under Interior design and Home renovations section, you will see what I envisage for my project. However, all I would like to know for now is how I can manipulate objects on the floorplan using action script.
