ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Cannot AddChild On Stage After Image Loaded
May 21, 2010
I am trying to learn how to use EventDispatcher. I create xml gallery where I am loading content via xml. In this particular case, I am not loading a sequence of multiple images. I load just one image. I traced the path to the image location and it is correct. I have a very hard time placing the loaded item to stage. I can trace EventDispatcher functions from EventDispather Class. When I do that, the trace statements confirm that the image is loaded. I am wondering what I should do in order to place the image on stage. I definitely cannot do it from EventDispatcher class directly or I am missing something. Below is my EventDispatcher class. How to add the loaded item on stage after EventDispatcher was run. Below is the class of my EventDispatcher.
Code:
package net.EvtDisp {
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.PixelSnapping;

I have a Movie Clip object with a timeline, and it has 3 layers: a layer to stop the timeline at the last frame, a layer with regular drawing with mask attribute and a layer containing a target movieclip with the instance named 'target', that is masked by the layer above.
The drawing is very simple, not even a movieclip, just vector drawing. It's supposed to show the target movieclip only on regions where the mask layer has some drawing, right?
So, I created the method to load an image, listen to the complete loaded event and add the image to the target masked movieclip, but it disappears after the first frame! If i delete the layer with the mask drawing, works fine.
Here's a smaller version of the code.
package
{
import flash.display.*
import flash.events.Event;

I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with this code:
[Code]....
I have a sample XML file with two images. If I remove either of the items from the XML, it everything displays fine, but with 2 items in the XML, the first item doesn't show an image, but the second does (maybe the first is being attached in a position behind the second?)

I have the followings:
_p:Player (which is a MC)
a1:Animation1 (which is a MC)
_p.addChild(a1); //doesn't display anything
_p.stage.addChild(a1); //displays a1
Why won't the MC display a child without using his stage?

I'm having a very odd bug with ActionScript 3 in Flash CS4. I am adding movie clips to a stage in a for loop and then moving them out of view so that I can pull them in and remove them when I need them.
I've narrowed down the issue to a point that I know that every time one of the movie clips are added to the stage using addChild(), the stage shifts to the right by one pixel. I know that sounds odd, but it's literally true... the 0 line on the y axis is shifted to the right one pixel every time the movie clip is added.
Here's the code that is doing the work:
private function setupSlides():void
{
for(x = 0; x < TOTAL_SLIDES; x++)
{

How do I make sure that a movie clip that starts on the stage has a higher zindex then when I addChild and add a linked movieClip from the library.
Really my code is pretty simple
background_image = new Sprite();
main_container.addChild (background_image);
But I have a movieClip "message_box" that I dragged onto the main timeline. When i add the background_image which is the full size of the stage it overlays the "message_box"
I know you can set the childs index but how do I set the "message_box" index?

How do I center (on stage) a loaded image inside a createEmptyMovieClip ? I've read so many threads...can't seem to make it work. here's my script:
button1.onPress = function(){
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("imagecontainer", _root.imagecontainer.getNextHighestDepth());

I've tried to center everything on stage, I even tried to center it by the registration point.

I have embedded a flv video onto the stage. I then have loaded in an image which is transparent enough to see the video through it. The problem is I cant now access the video player to control it. Is there anyway to bring the embedded video on the stage above the loaded in image so I can actually click play on the control bar and play the video?

I have a Flash CS4 Professional version installed in my machine. Here is my problem.
1st - I'm importing an image to stage and set the width and height to match the image. (everything is good, no problem) 2nd - I am using the FLVPlayback components build-in from Flash CS4. It does load the video and everything. (everything seems good) 3rd - Publish the video to my local drive (everything seems good) 4th - I could play the video from my local pc and it loads fine and fast 5th - Upload everthing from my local folder to the Web server, it does display the background image but not the video. It has a white blank screen. What is going on? I copy the exact folder from local to server. What have I missed? How could I make the video to load?

I am trying to add an object to my main stage via the addChild() method. Normally, when working within the FLA itself, using addChild(myObject) works just fine. However, it does not work within an external AS class.
All of the other tutorials I have found showed me how to do something like this, which is not what I need:
var myMovieClip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
myMovieClip.addChild(myObject); // Works great, but not what I need

I've created a function that works on the main stage and I am trying to transfer it to an external class to make it an easily reusable function.When I run it however, everything works except for the fact that it doesn't put anything on the stage as it should. All the info it needs is there it's just not putting it there.Therefore I conclude that I am using the addChild(); incorrectlyhere is some of my code if needed:
ActionScript Code:
public function drawBoard(i:int, j:int, tiles:Tile, boardArr:Array, stageBoardArr:Array):void {

Does anyone know how to addChild(aMovieClip) to stage by using a static function, like:
public static var player
public static function LoadPlayer()
{
GameEngine.player = new Player
stage.addChild(player)
}
(Or better yet tell me how to run functions in different class without creating instances of them or using static function )

I have a class that adds to the main stage fine, but not inside an MC
var SliderTestClass = new SliderTestClass;
mContent01.addChild(issSlider); //trace says undefined
addChild(issSlider);//trace says [object SliderTestClass]
Why would it refused to be added to mContent01 which is a visible MC on the stage?

I have a movie on stage that acts as a button using the code. person_mc.buttonMode = true;
I load an image onto the stage from my library using addChild(holiday);
What happens is that the person_mc button I have on stage will not function anymore, because I am presuming it is underneath the holiday pic when I loaded it using addChild.
How do I load the holiday pic, so that it is underneath the person_mc?
I know I could do what I did with holiday using addChild for the person_mc, but I do not want to do it that way.
