ActionScript 3.0 :: Delete A Dynamic Property Of A Dynamic Object?
Sep 30, 2009I am using a regular Flash object as a simple data container, and I want to remove a particular property of that object. Then that object gets passed on to a for..in loop. But even after using delete to remove the property, the key still shows up in the loop.
For example:
var obj:Object = { a: "a", b: "b", c: "c" }
delete obj['b'];
for ( var prop:String in obj ) {
[Code].....
So deleting the property seems to be the same as assigning its value to null.
Is there any way to immediately remove the property from the object altogether so that it is no longer looped over in a for..in loop?
It is not sufficient to check the property for a null value since a property with a null value is not the same as not having the property in the first place, and represents a different state. I don't want to set the property to null, I want to remove the property.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Can DisplayObjectContainer Be Extended?
Jul 2, 2009I'm creating an object that's only purpose is to hold a few other display objects, so all I need is a super class that can hold display objects. I don't want to use the sprite class because it has so many functions and properties that I don't need. if I can't use DisplayObjectContainer as a base class then what class should I use?
View 1 RepliesAS3 :: Flash - Identify MovieClip Among DisplayObjectContainer?
Oct 30, 2009in ActionScript 3, if I loop through the children of a movie clip, it will return a DisplayObjectContainer, which is a list of DisplayObjects. However, the AS3 typeof cannot identify MovieClip as MovieClip is now an object, instead of a data type. How can I correctly identify MovieClip?I found 3 solutions online: First set the MovieClip name to a specific name, then in the iterate process, check the name of children using child.name.indexOf("specificName") > -1
Solution 2:use child.hasOwnProperty("numChildren") to identify a MovieClip
Solution 3: use 3rd party plug-in like FlashDevelop
Flash :: DisplayObjectContainer Into Flex Component?
Apr 29, 2011I'm trying to get a class file from Flash into Builder.Everything in that class sits inside a Sprite called mainContainer. Now I'm trying to get that `mainContainer' which hold the graphics for the class into a Flex Application.This is proving to be a problem as their are many various ways of doing it (it seems going by numerous Google searches).First off I declare an MXML Canvas with an Image inside it (as I read would work):
<mx:Canvas x="268" y="10" width="756" height="680" id="canvas">
<mx:Image id="spriteLayer" x="268" y="0" width="756" height="700" scaleContent="false" autoLoad="true">

View 7 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: DisplayObjectContainer Handling Children With Same Name
Jan 27, 2009Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
var sp1:Sprite = new Sprite( );
var sp2_1:Sprite = new Sprite( );
[Code]....
I'd assume from this that there is no correcting done for children with the same name being added to the same parent. I ask this question because I'm creating a structure that needs to mimic the display list and I'd like to keep behavior consistent.
Another question: I'd assume internally the children are saved in something similar to a Dictionary object, does anyone know if this is true? And then getChildByName simply does a foreach loop and returns the first match on a name?
Flash :: Get Dimensions Of Only DisplayObjectContainer's *visible* Contents?
Oct 8, 2009A DisplayObjectContainer's dimensions change based on its contents.
That can be a LOT of contents, many of them with visible = false or masked, thus making them hidden. Is there a way to get only the visible contents of a DisplayObjectContainer similar to a TextField has the textHeight property, which gives you the exact dimension of what you see on-screen.

Dec 9, 2009is it possible to clip children that are part of a DisplayObjectContainer? If I have a parent object with size x 100, y 100, width 100, height 100 and a child that has the coordinates x -50, y -50, width 100, height 100, I can still see the full child staying at x 50, y 50, but I want the child to be cut off by the parent.
View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Hide Fact That A Class Is DisplayObjectContainer?
Oct 28, 2009I have a class which will contain exactly one child, no more, no less, and other classes are not allowed to change that fact.
I could throw error messages every time a child is added or removed by overriding the default properties, but I don't want the object to be treated as if it were a DisplayObjectContainer.
I want it to look like only a DisplayObject, yet I still want to add a child to it in private.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Tricking Items Into Believing They Are In A DisplayObjectContainer?
Jan 21, 2010I'm working on a class that let's you use "addChild" to add children to it. In all aspects, it's treated like a regular class, the only difference is that it doesn't really add them. It only draws the BitmapData of them and displays that, which doesn't make a huge difference for the user, but might make a difference for performance, at least the way I am planning to make it.
Now, if users add a regular old Sprite or other DisiplayObject to the container, I have overridden the function to draw the BitmapData of the item, and store the item in an array.The problem is, if the user want to do something like "sprite1.parent", since the Sprite technically isn't on the display list, the parent property will be null. I can't override the passed in sprite's properties, right? Is there any way around this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Width Of DisplayObjectContainer - Make The Size Of Sprite Is Not Affected By Its Children?
Jan 30, 2010look at the following codes first
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite();
trace( sp.width ); // the result will be 0
var mc:DefinedMC = new DefinedMC(); // assume that DefinedMC is derived from movie clip, and the width of mc is 100
sp.addChild(mc);
trace( ap.width ); // the result will be 100
[code].....
so the size of an instance of Sprite is affected by its children.is there any class derived from DisplayObjectContainer whose size is not affected by its children, or is there any method that could make the size of Sprite is not affected by its children.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Alpha Property On Dynamic Text Not Working?
Sep 25, 2008I have generated several TextFields dynamically through a for loop. I would like all the text fields to have their alpha set to 0 so that each field can eventually fade in.
When I apply the alpha property by setting it to 0, or even .5 the text appears to still be at an alpha of 1. Does anyone know how to make the text appear with a low to 0 alpha?
I have attached the code from the function which runs the for loop to generate the text fields. Please not that the value of the text fields are stored in a global array, and the text format objects are also global and are declared in the main body of the class.

Flex :: AS3 - Creating Dynamic Property And Then Binding Control To It
May 5, 2010I am trying to:
1) create a dynamic property
2) bind that property to a label
This works great for "sealed properties", but for dynamic properties there doesn't appear to be any event triggered. Are dynamic properties implicityly not bindable?
var myObj:MyType = new MyType(); // MyType is dynamic
myObj["myDynamicPropertyName"] = "initialized";
BindingUtils.bindProperty(myLabel, "data", myObj, repeatedLabel.name);
// myLabel now displays "initialized"
myObj["myDynamicPropertyName"] = "changed";
// myLabel still displays "initialized", it should say "changed" !!!
