I'm trying to layer lots of objects behind each other depending on there y position.
each clip is added dynamically and assigned a numer as its name, then im trying to use the set child index to set its depth...
Code:
var number:Number = Number(movie.name);
setChildIndex(movie, number);
I get the error "The supplied index is out of bounds.", what does this mean
var whichmc:MovieClip=MovieClip(mainmc.getChildAt(tno))trace(whichmc.name+'<<whichmc')<<< showing movieclip's namesetChildIndex(whichmc,mainmc.numChildren-1) <<error here

I have a .sol file that can be opened using AS2 but when AS3 opens it i get RangeError: Error #2006: The supplied index is out of bounds.
at flash.net::SharedObject$/getLocal()
I have tried the SharedObject.defaultObjectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0 but this is for writing, not for reading. Not sure what to do but to trap/suppress the error. Does not solve the issue, any takers? If it works in AS2 then it should work in AS3!
I've been adding and removing objects from my stage. Just when I think one part is fixed, another breaks. Basically, I'm getting the following error -

i reworked the code to make it error free. now all we're dealing with is the REANGE ERROR problem. i'm extremely new to flash and am reading people's answers on sites in which they solved this problem, but do not understand what people are saying at all.
let me explain my problem a little better: i am creating a drop down menu. everything is fine UNTIL i go to scroll over the button and get the error. i added inner glow, etc. and all of that works fine. i'm only stuck at where the drop down menu is supposed to descend

Another day another problem unfortunately- the last line of this piece of code is the culprit:
uiBar = new mcUiBar();
uiBar.x=-15;
uiBar.y=-5;
addChildAt(uiBar, numChildren-1);
Now I researched and so I know it has something to with the array being larger thanwhatever, but I'm not figuring it out
Somehow i keep getting this error message. The following code makes a fade in-out gallery that works fine by itself. But the moment i put it (manually or with addChild method, its the same) in the main timeline i get this message. Google search turned out quite baffling.

I've got to invoke a RPC service, and all the parameters sent are String. It works quite well when the data is relatively small, but when one of the string grows to the size about 10 or over hundred KB, immediately after the service is invoked, it goes to the error handler:
[FaultEvent fault=[RPC Fault faultString="Error #2006: The supplied index is out of bounds." faultCode="InvokeFailed" faultDetail="null"] messageId="85CF2FB3-E79D-779F-87F9-B04520318D3A" type="fault" bubbles=false cancelable=true eventPhase=2]

the title is self-explanatory. i'm VERY new to flash so i don't understand a lot of the lingo. can anyone give me a simple answer or, better yet, fix the code for me? i'm reading that it usually comes up when there's a child error but i'm not sure how to fix it.

I'm trying to remove children from a movie clip upon user interaction but it's saying "the supplied index is out of bounds" - however, I must be missing something because it doesn't seem like anything is out of bounds. This is my code:
Circle.as:
for (var i=0; i<3;i++){ //this number should be based on the number of children found in the XML

I'm adding a bunch of movieclips to a container clip. I then add that to the scrollpane. When I run scrollpane.update() it gives me the error "The supplied index is out of bounds". From the full error message it looks like it's happening on the DisplayObjectContainer/getChildAt() which is run in the update() method. I thought I had it going once but now it's not again and I can't figure out what I was doing differently.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to display a 3 items on Stage and all of them can be displayed.
However, I got that annoying error message: RangeError: Error #1125: The index 3 is out of range 3
I don't get it when it reached 3 it supposed to go through the else condition and reset currentIndex to 0...
Does anyone know how to fix that error message??

If I'm reading it right it is saying that the index supplied for the child is out of bounds. Yet it is the index captured earler, and I add or remove no children in between these functions being called.

I simply load a playermenu from the library and then attach the whole player_menu to the stage. When doing it with addChild it works, however when I specify a index it reports that error. (I need to use it because i want to control the indexing of movieclips). I am just not able to add a child with addChildAt, whats the error here?
PHP Code:
//menuvar player_menu:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var player_menu_sub:playermenu = new playermenu();
player_menu.addChild(player_menu_sub);player_menu.y=174;
this.addChildAt(player_menu, 6);
output.text=this.getChildIndex(player_menu).toString();
I know this may seem like a trivial question, but I don't know how to solve this, basicly I remove certain components from my stage at a part of my Flash/Actionscript 3 movie by running through all the elements displayed, seeing if each is an instance of MenuDinamico (sprite), GalerÃa (sprite) or Map (Google Maps)

I was wondering what's the best way to manage an images depth. Currently I have 2 layers. On the top layer I have a png image of a window. The inside of the window frame is transparent so you can see though it. On the bottom layer I have a png image of a background that you cannot see though. I used addChild(MyMovieClip); to put an image onto the stage. It is in front of the window. I used addChildAt(MyMovieClip, 0); and the image ended up behind the background. I used addChildAt(MyMovieClip, 1); and the image ended up in front of the window again.

i'm desperately trying to set my border container the highest z-index so it will always appear on top.
how can I know how many objects are in my flex stage, so i'll be able to set the bordercontainer the highest depth? what shell i write in the depth property in order the border container would always be on top? (it's important to mention that i created dynamic objects)
<s:BorderContainer includeIn="state2" width="200" height="200" backgroundColor="#992F2F"
horizontalCenter="-61" verticalCenter="23" depth.state2=currentState.num>
</s:BorderContainer>
Here is the problem I have: after I change the index of one movieclip using this code
oldIndex=getChildIndex(DisplayObject(e.target));
setChildIndex(DisplayObject(e.target), numChildren - 1);
when I give the object its old index
setChildIndex(DisplayObject(e.target), oldIndex);
and go to another frame of the movie, this element I have changed the index of stays on top of all elements on the new frame. My question is am I doing something wrong and if not, what can I do so that this element stays only in the frame it is placed.
I have a 3D field with many MovieClips in it, and seems like the one last added is the one that overlaps others and not the one with highest z value. Is there any property/function that sets z-index? (sorting children by z value seems too much like a hack). A 3D engine that can place MovieClips will be helpful(but not one that requires custom drawing). I'm using Flash CS5 with ActionScript 3
View 2 RepliesI'm getting this error: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller
I've read about it here and on other forums, but have not come across the same situation I am in, I fixed it but am just looking for clarity:I create 3 containers, one for a slideshow that gets masked by graphics, another that contains the navigation, and a 3rd that contains the content the navigation will load. I create the slideshow container and it's mask, then I create the nav container, then later I create the content container. I want to removeChild(contentContainer) after I choose a second navigation item or just want to clear the content. Simple, and it works fine, done it a million times.
THEN: I want the contentContainer to have an index number between the slideshow and the navigation containers. I set the slideshow container index to 0, then the content container index to 1, (and I've tried a number of other combinations) and I am no longer able to remove content container beacuse of the error that gets thrown above. In fact any combination of setting the content container to anything other then 0 will throw this error. Why would this be? The only answer was to set the content container index to 0, then set the slideshow index to 0
works:
setChildIndex(contentContainer,0);
setChildIndex(slideshowContainer,0);
function mouseUP(e.Event){ removeChild(contentContainer)[code]....
why changing the index or depth of the movieClip breaks the the timeline animation of this movieClip !!
View 7 RepliesI'm in a situation where I have a xml document which is going to be updated in the following way: The deepest child within the document which surrounds a certain x,y position (depending on it's x, y, width and height attributes) is going to get a new child element. If multiple childs exist with the same depth, the bottom one is updated.
My first step was to find this deepest child, this already caused problems, but I managed to solve this with the following recursion[code]...
