ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash AddChild Does Not Work Inside Package
May 13, 2011
I would like to create a class displaying a button:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code] .....
But when I call this from my fla file:
Code:
import AutoHideButton;
var button:AutoHideButton = new AutoHideButton();
no errors are given but nothing is displayed (the same code pasted directly into the timeline works).

I'd really like to use this package in Flash as3:[URL]... I've copied the source and saved it as a file called MP3Loop.as. In the same folder I have a .fla with some code in it like this:
var looper:MP3Loop = new MP3Loop(); So far as I can see this should be all I need to have a play with the package, but it doesn't seem to work. Instead I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at MP3Loop/initUI() at MP3Loop() at loop_test_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

How do I say an MXML component is inside some package? Well, it's in a different folder... I know how to do it ActionScript... But when I do in MXML I don't declare the package explicitly because I don't know how, and when I call it to my application, it states that The prefix "package" for element "package:Component" is not bound.

Okay I'm working on a pretty big project, and the last thing I need to do is get this content to display. Here's my lil problem. So I'm loading buildings, and when clicked on, I'm loading a movieclip from the library that has a slideshow movieclip on the first frame, however this slideshow is packaged externally. This slideshow has a "xmlPath" that is defaulted to a XML file. My question is... what kind of code can I use to control which xml is loaded when loading that packaged slideshow?

I haven't found my answer with a search of the forum, sorry if this is a redundant question. I am having problems with targeting a MovieClip that is inside another Movie Clip that is placed on stage from the Library using the addChild(); method. This is my code for creating the MC instance on stage:
var pMenuSlide:plusMenuSlide = new plusMenuSlide();
addChild(pMenuSlide);
Now, inside of pMenuSlide there is a MC called cloze, how do I target this MC? This does not work: var pMenuCloze:MovieClip = Object(root).pMenuSlide.cloze

I have an MC that I want to add to Stage dynamically. Until here everything seems fine:
for (var j:int = 0; j < nomePostosArray.length; j++) {
var MC:MovieClip = new mc();
namelistscroller.text.addChild(MC);
[Code].....
the variable mapLink is inside the MC. This should be a link that should follow when someone press the link button inside MC. This is the only part that is not working.

Here's my (simplified) code:
Code:
var doorType:String = "DT0";
var openType:String = "OT0";
var imagePositioner:Sprite = new Sprite(); //Places a Sprite that will "contain"
[Code]....
openType is defined on a previous screen, it will be equal to OT1 or OT2. I have two sets of images (movie clips) that each have a prefix of "ot1_" or "ot2_" (in their class name). Other than those prefixes the two sets of image names are the same. I think I could cut the amount of code in half if I could use a variable when I use addChild.
I am not very knowledgeable of AS3 and everything I've tried has failed. My theory is that addChild() needs to contain a movieclip, so putting a variable name in addChild() doesn't work.

I have my Stage. On this I have an empty MovieClip (MC). To begin with I do:
MCContent = new TestMC();
MC.addChild(MCContent);
This works. But in my TestMC, I have another MovieClip Button01, which is named Button01, where I have the code:
Button01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, handleMouseUp);
function handleMouseUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace('Hello World);
}
But when I click on Button01 nothing happens... What am I doing wrong?

i have a set of images with incrementing names image1, image2, image3 etc and i have a series of empty movie clips on the stage also with incrementing names mc1, mc2, mc3, etc
i wanted to use this:
mc_empty.addChild(my_loader);
to display a series of images into the series of movieclips on stage my_loader is an incrementing variable, and that works fine with the .addChild however, when specifying what addChild is loading content into, it doesnt seem to favour variables as names, it only seems to like real instance names thought i could use
getChildByName("mc_empty"+num)
like this:
getChildByName("mc_empty"+num).addChild(my_loader) ;
but that doesnt seem to work with .addChild either

var menu_open:Boolean = true;
MenuContainer1.MenuContainer2.logo.nav_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onNav2);
function onNav2(event:MouseEvent):void{
if (menu_open) {
[Code]....
why this does not work it does not trace else when i click, but if before i compile i swap "var menu_open:Boolean = true;" to "var menu_open:Boolean = false;" it does trace else!

I am trying to get a circle shape and a text-field sit inside a square sprite, using addChild() method. Both the children seem not to agree sitting in the lap of their parent; and are sitting at a distance, instead. If I create a square symbol on the stage and run the application, everything is fine.

I cant get addChild to work withing a loop (while).
I have a range of movie clips in the frame hidden away. These are called item_1, item_2, item_3 etc.
It works FINE when Im adding say item_1, then item_2, but if the code tries to add "item_1" twice, it seems to just overwrite the first new "item_1"!?!
This is what I need to do, and it just wont work!
ActionScript Code:
while(i<10){
this["item_new_"+i] =new MovieClip();
this["item_1"].y = 0;//I put this in just to make sure they line up right

I have a VBox, I assigned a handler to click, and inside the VBox I have components such as images and texts with no handler assigned for click. Would the click function be called when I click on the text and image? If not how can I make it so without assigning handlers individually, but on the container level?

In my rails controller, I have a show and save action. The show is for showing the flash application. The save is for saving the flash application. When the flash application calls the rails save action I would like it to redirect to a new view in the rails app and no longer be inside the flash application.I have a redirect_to some_path in the save action. The server log shows a successful redirect to some_path, however, for the user there is no redirect and they are still stuck inside the flash application.

in my last flash website i built, i created a gallery, my way of creating pages in flash are to have a movieclip as a page, so to make it easier to switch between the paged (page switching functionality is purely done in AS3). the gallery was a problem however, i needed the pictures to appear as popups, however to add the child from inside the movieclip, any masks i use would prevent the popup from leaving the immediate area of the page. so to get around this problem i basically used: MovieClip(root).addChild()
in my opinion this was a mistake, because it created other problems. the problem was that the popups are still connected to the page, even though they are outside of it, which meant that using removeChild() to switch from the gallery, meant that any popup that were still active, 'DIDNT' dissapear, and worse than that, because the page was removed, the popups lost any AS connected to them, which meant the couldnt be removed at all.

I'm running into this weird thing with ASDoc. It will only document one package function per package.For example.I have these two functions:
gs.util.printf
gs.util.ftrace
In these files:
gs/util/printf.as
gs/util/ftrace.as
The only function that get's documented in ASDocs is "printf". But I know it can do more than one. As an example, in the livedocs [URL] There are more than one functions documented.
