ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Preloader Does Not AddChild On Event
Jun 1, 2011
I have a website file that I am preloading with an another swf preloader file. The code is on the first frame of preloader.swf and as follows:
Code:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]...
The problem is when I use this without simulate download option I see it is loaded via trace() and content.swf loads BUT when I use simulate download or upload files to Web and try it there it just counts to 100% percent and stops there.

i add eventlistener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER) to some movieclip. but when i write: addChild(event.target) it doesnt work.
More info: i have several rectangles on the stage. when movie starts, they all get alpha 0.3, when you mouse over any of them they get alpha 1 with tween. But i made it so that, rectangles are located over the each other. and i want to make it so, that when you mouse over any rectangle it comes to front, but it doesnt work with addChild(event.target).To try it at your own, just create 3 different sized boxes and give then instance names: square_mc, square2_mc, square3_mc and copy+paste this code.

I have a button that was added to stage using addChild when the page load, the button is suppose to be removed using removeChild and redirect into its specific page using event.target.name...somehow i got this error: Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
I have try replace this line, var newswf:URLRequest= new URLRequest("./swfs/"+ event.target.name +".swf"); with this, var newswf:URLRequest= new URLRequest("./swfs/about.swf"); and everything works fine, but i dont want that since I want it to load dynamically and uses less code..
my code as below:
var about:About = new About();
about.x = 300;
about.y = 200;

I'm trying to have a class file which can add objects to the stage via addChild; however, when I call addChild from within the class file, I get the error "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild." I've tried importing flash.display.* and that doesn't fix the problem. Does the class file have to extend Sprite or MovieClip to be able to add objects to the stage?

I have downloaded Box2d ([URL]) and created a project that looks like this: [URL]. catalyst is the green cube and it has the base class "shapes.box", it is inside "world" which has the base class "wck.World". What i want to do is to add another "catalyst" from the library inside "world" when i click on add_btn. I tried to accomplish this by this code:

dispatch an event on every 'onProgressEvent' of an external display object loading.
Does dispatching an event frequently cause performance issues?
All I want to do is have a parent class listen for whenever a progressEvent has fired in my loader class, rather than setting up an onEnterFrame loop in the parent class to call 'get' methods within the loader - this seems inefficient to me seeing as onProgressEvents don't occur on every frame.

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 trying to resolve an issue that reared it's ugly head yesterday.Frame one of main timeline I have the following code:
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[code]....
The newMC doesn't show up.If I add 'parent.' in front of the addChild then it appears.mc_LibItem has a base class of "flash.display.MovieClip" and is exporting for ActionScript and on frame one.For grins I created a new .fla and began messing around with the same addChild idea and it worked.

I'm putting together a portfolio site in the external method of using a document class structure.
Of the classes I have involved thus far include:
:: Master.as
and a
:: Intro.as
The Master class loads the Intro class (and others as well). The Intro class has the button event to trigger the Preloader. However, I want the button to trigger the Preloader as a separate class. Meaning, I don't want to build the entire function set inside the Intro class. I'm trying to build everything around the Master class and not go of in a tangent based around one event.
The problem I'm having is passing variable instance information in the Intro class to an external class whether it's a Preloader or otherwise.
I see tutorials for Preloaders, but how do people incorporate them into a pre-existing class structure? That is, in a modular fashion so I could re-use the Preloader class somewhere else? What's a common structure philosophy that's used to pass info?

somewhat understood the basics of adding and removing children, however, I am facing another problem. After using the removeChild Function, I can't seem to add another child.For example:
ActionScript Code:
var attachedMC = new (getDefinitionByName("Content1") as Class)()
Page.addChild(attachedMC);

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);
This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:
Code:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
[code]....
What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

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++)
{

I've seen methods for overriding addChild inside of movieclips, but can you do it at the upper-most root level? As in, overriding it on the main timeline.

I am trying to create a dynamic scrolling list in Flash AS3. When I create a list, I set it to be an initial length. Later, I add more objects to the list which is outside of the original size of the list. I want to be able to scroll down the list and see all the objects. My scrollbar just moves the list's y position. However, every object that is drawn outside the original list size is not shown when I run the program and scroll. I have a list object which has the function below when I need to add content to the list. When I initialize the list, I give it an initial height and width which I use to create a mask.
public function AddPlayers(pPlayers:Array, pScrollBar:ScrollBar):void {
var player:Player;
trace("happened again");
for (var i:int = 0; i < pPlayers.length; i++)
player = pPlayers[i];

What happens when you add a MovieClip to the stage using addChild and then gotoAndStop to a different frame?Is the MovieClip automatically removed? Will it be there when you go back to the same frame?

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?

I had this problem (Error: addChild() is not available in this class. Instead, use addElement() or modify the skin, if you have one.) and I followed the recommended solution:
// container ( IVisualElement ) for DisplayObjects
var container:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
addElement( container );

What I need to be able to do, is get the string Locale to be read by the Child swf.

I have gotten the AR tutorials from [url]....and are having fun with the flarsquidderkit for multiple pattern detection.However I would like to have a start page, and a high score page for the game based on this, and have tough time figuring how to make the timeline code works for this.
flarsquidderkit have extended papervision3d and has its own 3DdisplayObject, and the flash's MovieClip addChild() is not working.how to extend the movieClip class when my document class has already extended another super class,and also if I can control the score via timeline instead of dumping every single thing in to the document class?

In my .fla file, in frame 1 on the main timeline, I have a Button symbol in the display list. When that button is clicked, a function removes it from the display list, then adds a MovieClip (created in the library & exported for AS3) to the display list, then plays the MovieClip. Within that MovieClip, on the last frame is the stop(); function. The MovieClip is an animation of a transition from one room to another.Everything works ok up to this point.
After the MovieClip is done playing, I need to add more whatevers to the display list (such as a button to transition back to the previous room).The problem is I don't know how to tell ActionScript to wait till the MovieClip has played before adding to the display list. When trying to get it to do so, it just skips to the last frame of the MovieClip, not playing the animation.
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
