I am creating images by loading in thumbnails and creating a bitmap of each form the press of a navigation button. However I cant seem to remove child of the previous button pressed. You can see thge example here [URL].
Code:
function loadImage():void {
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(imageURLs[loadedImages]);
loader.load(urlRequest);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded);

I'm trying to put together a sideshow using a modification of load_images.fla (a sample file supplied with Flash) combined the the 'Kirupa Menu with Slider' tutorial ([URL]) The slideshow uses a 'next' & 'previous' button to click thought the images. In addition to this I have a separate slide menu navigation (currently just numbers 1-7), with a rectangle highlighting the number of the image being viewed. I would like to move the rectangle to show which image is being viewed, when the 'next' or 'previous' button is pressed. The follow code shows the actionscript for the 'next' & 'previous' buttons....
I have an image map with hotspots that animate when clicked and bring up info onto the stage. My problem today is how to stop the animation and remove the info on one button when a second button is clicked. The info is intended to appear in a space to the side of the image map.MY code works apart from it throws up an error when user clicks on the hotspot.[coder]I'm pretty sure that there is a more elegant way of doing this, particularly as there will be ten buttons overall.[Code].....
Am creating a two page document in flash cs4. Each of these 2 page documents have links to a learning resource on a web server.All I want is for the user to be able to navigate to and fro this two page document. Infact, I want to be able to click on a NEXT button to go the the nextpage and PREVIOUS PAGE button to go back to the previous page.
I have created 2 sprites each containing a dynamic text field child. I then add this as a child of the stage. (I have done this in order to make the text clickable with a hand cursor on mouseover)It loads in fine, I just run into problems when trying to REMOVE it the sprite containing the text."ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller."Sections concerned in red:
_root.fadeBox_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){ if (fade){ this.nextFrame();[code]....
This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say
on (press){ _root.fade = true; }
the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?
my program is i can choose several movie to load and the movies are save in an array... For example: i choose movie 1 , 2 and 3. Movie 1 was loaded. After i lick 'next 'button, movie 2 will be show .Beside that,if i click 'previous' button, movie 1 will be show. i facing a problem that my previous button is not back to my previous loaded movie but is trace my choices in arrays backward. The next problem is, my first movie load to the second movie load will be a bit lagging. but the rest 1 is ok.
I have various movies clip within a movie and my back (mc = arr2_mc) and next (mc = arr1_mc) buttons are on the main scene.This is on my main scene on a first frame
when it goes back, it goes back frame by frame without stopping but I want it to go only to previous Scene. instead of going to previous frame.Do i have to create a unique button? which i did but i didn't work?
Whats a better way to remove an old image or an image that is not there at all?I am working with this XML slideshow and I have tweaked it the way I want, except the first image that loads doesn't disappear. How can I make this statement better? I've tried if (previous || imgHolder.numChildren > 0 ) as well and didn't work
I am rebuilding my website and need to remove a mc when another mc is clicked. [URL]. The movie clips are pages and if you check the link you will see the pages aren't removed they simply stay on the page when the new mc appears. This is the relevant part of the .as which appears to have a remove code but doesn't seem to take affect.
function navigate (e:MouseEvent):void { trace (e.target.name); // Remove the current movie clip container_mc.removeChildAt (0); switch (e.target.name) { [Code] .....

I have a datagrid in a flash app. The intial use works fine. The flash has the ability to recalculate the needed data which I then use to repopulate the existing datagrid. What is the best way to clear out a datagrid and repopulate it?I tried:ifxGrid.dataProvider.removeAll();but it does not clear out the previous dataifxGrid.removeAllColumns();this worked a little but not entirely.So what's currently happening is that the new data is appended to the old data. So if I had 50 rows in the 1st calculation and then I have 70 rows in the 2nd calculation I end up with 120 rows of data in my datagrid.
i found an example online where bombs falling from the sky remove circles from a grass field, and a moving character can interact with the newly made circles(go into them). i dissected the code to the point where the only thing that happens now is that you click on the field and remove a circle:
However, either I'm declaring my variables at the wrong bit/way or there is another problem, as I have been able to add the child I want to from the display list (sidepoint: is it right to call the display list everything in the library on stage at runtime plus those things you have exported for actionscript usage??!)...but when I want to remove it at the next cuepoint nothing happens. I feel this is a basic principle that is alluding me here.
Code: vid.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cueText); function cueText(e:MetadataEvent): void{
I have a player that loads both images and videos. I am having a problem removing the previous child from the holder and am close to using tricks to fix it. I'd rather not. Here's the code that loads the image:
Code: var _mediaLoader:Loader = new Loader(); _mediaLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded); _mediaLoader.load(new URLRequest("blah.jpg"); function imageLoaded(e:Event):void{ videoConsole.imgHolder_mc.addChild(_mediaLoader); }
And my flv loader is a bunch of mumbo jumbo with this code at the end: Code: videoConsole.imgHolder_mc.addChild(flvPlayer); So, how can I remove the previous child, if there is one, when loading the next item on the playlist?
var ZombieInstanceTimerL:Timer = new Timer(8000,60); ZombieInstanceTimerL.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, ZombieTimerLfunction); ZombieInstanceTimerL.start();
[Code]....
Basicly im first setting a timer of 8 seconds for a zombie to sprawn then it sets the properties and then using the addChild method it adds the zombie every 8 seconds. then i made the zombie move but as if it hits the character i make it stop and go to the attacking scene which is frame 4 and then when it isnt hitting it, it goes back to frame 2 which is walking,, then i made a Zombie death code which works by in the zombie attack class it has hittests for all the weapons and it reduces a varible in a GlobalVaribles class the varible is called ZombieHP and here it says if ZombieHP is below 1 it should go to 3 which is the death scene and add a point to the score but the hp and gotoAndStop affects all of the zombies so when it hits one they all die how can i make it so only the one its hitting can be affected..
I've run into a problem when trying to move one of my sprites from the stage when it dies.So far what I'm having to do is call the Death method from the main class, which then goes to the Enemy Class in order to play the animation, once the animation has reached the last frame an event is triggered which is situated in the main frame which then removes the now dead enemy from the stage. However it doesn't appear to be able to target the child which I want removed =/Main Class:
Code: private function hitCheck(e:Event = null):void{ var samuraiPos:Number = SamuraiChar.samuraiPos();
Have a rather bizarre issue with Flex throwing an error when teh application is running in the background. I use Selenium and SeleniumFlexApi to run various tests against my app. If the browser window is in the foreground or any part of it is visible to teh screen, the test pass as expected. However, if the window is in the background and not visible, I am getting the following error in 1 part of my app.
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. I have a VBOX that creates a number of children and then upon creationComplete(or UpdateComplete, I've tried both) it then needs to remove any of the children that are not visible. Each child has a listener for CreationComplete which checks if the child is visible and if not, adds it to an array which is iterated over when the parent UpdateComplete is fired. I cant seem to find any reason for this behavior and am curious if its an issue with the Flex Component LifeCycle.
In my document class I have assigned the root of fla to theRoot movieclip as theRoot = MovieClip(this.root); And as my program proceeds I have added several childs to theRoot. Now at the end of my program I need to delete all the childs of theRoot. So,how can I do this without individually deleting single childs.
I have these lines of code on frame 55 on the Main Timeline that generates the contact Form :
ActionScript Code: import com.warmforestflash.ContactForm; var contactForm:ContactForm = new ContactForm(); contactForm.x = -200;
[Code].....
My problem is, that I want the contact Form to be deleted everytime I change the frame means --> everytime I go to another subpage of the homepage. So I would need a script to check for instances of the contact Form class on every subpage-frame and to delete them if present.
I'm trying to create s simple website by using flash. My idea was to have a series of buttons that when i click will add a child to my stage. Now my problem is that i can only figure how to remove that child again by clicking the same button, i would like that the child could be removed by clicking any given button.
Below you see the code for two of my buttons. It is basically made up of the snippets from Flash CS5. I've restricted the amount of children thath can be added, so that no two subpages (children) can be added at the same time. When i add the child by pressing a button the child will be the seventh child on the stage. Is it possible to then make a piece of code for the button so that given a child number seven is already at the stage this will be removed?
ActionScript Code: infobtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_info); var fl_Loader:InfoPage = new InfoPage(); var fl_ToLoad:Boolean = true;
I have written this little script, as i want to remove some of the text fields that are currently contained within the Display Objec, however it does not like to see the TextField as a varaible name. How would i convert the object from an array to become a textfield that can be removed, after being added through addChild()
This is the script
var delayHeading:Number = 1500;var repeatHeading:int = 1;var setShow:Timer = new Timer(delayHeading, repeatHeading);setShow.start();setShow.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, maybeLater);
so here goes the description of what i'm (trying) to make : i want to make a slideshow with AS 3, it will load external image which the location will be written in xml after it has load all the image it will play by itself and change beetwen image with transition.. well i manage to : read the xml, load the picture one by one and convert it into a bitmap tipeafter convert it to a bitmap tipe data i save it into an arrayafter all the image has been laoded , converted into bitmap and saved into array to display the image itself i first add the the image which has been save into the array to the container that i specially made to hold this (well actually because transition manager can only have effect on MovieClip).
myMCContainer.addChild(myImageArray[imageIndex]); that's how i display it (of course i have added "myMCContainer to the stage").
well the real problem is when i tried to use remove child fo myMCContainer it give me error #2025, and when i tried to check number of child that myMCContainer has it returned 0 even after adding the image...
