ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Pass Value Between Child To Parent
Jul 15, 2009
In Move1.swf I am loading Movie2.swf like below:
ActionScript Code:
var myvalue:Number = 0;
var UploadLoad:Loader = new Loader();
UploadLoad.load(new URLRequest("Movie2.swf"));
UploadLoad.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, endNavListener);
function endNavListener(e:Event):void {
var UploadForm=MovieClip(UploadLoad.content);
stage.addChild(UploadForm);
UploadForm.x=0;
UploadForm.y=0;}
But I am having one variable in Movie1.swf which is called myvalue, I want to assign some value for myvalue from Movie2.swf. So I have coded like
ActionScript Code:
MovieClip(parent).myvalue = 100;
But the value is not passing ....

I have made a piece of flash that runs on an xml document and now I need to pass a flash variable (via the html swfobject) to the flash to dictate this xml location. The variable is successfully passed if I embed the main swf straight into the swfobject.The problem is I am using a preloader swf to load the main swf onto the page and I can't seem to work out how to pass the variable (from swfobject) from the preloader to the main swf.

I have two swf, A.swf and B.swf: B.swf is a child of A.swf. Each swf has its DocumentClass. Now: I must pass 4 arrays from A.swf to the DocumentClass of B.swf. Which could be the best way? Is a listener in B.swf a good idea? I noticed there's the possibility to send data over the querystring but I would like to avoid this solution, if possible.

I'm passing a number in my HTML through FlashVars to a swf, I load an external swf into that parent swf which needs the variable that I passed.
I can use the variable passed in the parent, but I just can't understand how to attain that value in the child swf.
I've been looking into dispatch event but it seems way overkill. Haven't seen any examples dealing with something so simple.

I got a Parent Sprite, let's name it SpriteP, which holds inside it two other Sprites. Sprite1 and Sprite2.[code]Sprite2 is a rectangle. When I rotate it, of course, the height of its parent, SpriteP, GROWS. But I would expect that height to go back to what it should be when I'm removing Sprite2!And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200.

i am slightly confused about the parent and child relationship. lets assume we have several different instances, what would be difference of adding them all as children of the stage and creating a parent-child hierarchy between them(other than the access path).

I got a Parent Sprite, let's name it SpriteP, which holds inside it two other Sprites. Sprite1 and Sprite2.
When Sprite2 is NOT rotated:
Code:
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 250.
SpriteP.removeChild(Sprite2)
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 200. -> works, 200 is good.
When Sprite2 is rotated at 90:

And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200. But if I rotate Sprite2, the Parent won't update its bounds.

[code]All clips are squared.Ok, on the PlayerPlane, there are little soldiers, which have hotkeys. The effect I'm trying to create is I want to position the GameStage so that the currently selected soldier appears in the center of the GameClicker clip.The GameStage is movable by the player (to scan other areas of the map)by holding the CTRL key, so it's easy to kinda lose track of where your players are.I have tried using localTo Global and globalToLocal techniques, but I think I'm lost on the actual math of getting the GameStage to move the correct distance so that the selected soldier is centered to the GameClicker.[code]

if I add a clip to the stage as a child and remove the parent and set the parent equal to null, does the child get collected and removed from memory? What if the child has an image loaded into it as its child?
In my application I'm loading a series of png images as overlays that can be tinted for customizing in this app. When I trace my memory, the basic app idles at 64,000 k. The exact second I load those overlay images it goes up to 205,000k. If I remove those clips and "clear" the stage I should go back down to 64,000 k if everything is removed and collected correctly, right? It's not, it's hanging at 215,000 k. Are my images being cached and that is the reason for the memory staying up? If so, how do I prevent that. Or upon removing the parent of the image how can I un-cache the image.
If a user switches between models and loads several different items then the application actually crashes the Flash environment because of too much memory usage. It also does the same to browsers.

I have a parent swf which loads many child swfs (though only one is displayed at a time). My intention was to use the loaded SWFs document class to retrieve an array of objects to be assigned a tab index, combine this with the parent's own array of objects and apply sequential tab indices to them all. But what happens is actually that the parent's objects are assigned an index, but the external swf is unaffected. In fact, the external swf retains its automatic tab indexing, when I would expect that having set a value for InteractiveObject.tabIndex, automatic tab indexing would be disabled.
I've seen similar tales elsewhere. Most posts I've read are wanting to load an external swf, give it focus and loop through those objects, then close the swf and return to looping through the parent. However I would like loop through all objects as one. including manipulating the focus manager(s), and basically fiddling with every tab-related property I know.

I have an issue where removechild won't infact remove a child. I think its something to do with my dropTarget.parent issues. The concept of the code is that you drag a source onto a destination. When you drop the source onto the destination you will get a text field that says "Hello" or "Goodbye". The objective i want to achive is that once i drop a source onto the destination, removechild will remove any previouse textfields added. This is proving difficult.

Here is a working script to drag drop a ball from the stage into another target mc:
ball.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void{ [code]...
It works well but I'm new to AS3 and I am having difficulty amending this script to drag the ball out of a parent mc (instead of the stage) and onto another mc (the target mc). To explain: imagine a ball, a box, a tri, + more shapes all within a scrolling mc (initial parent), the user scrolls to select a shape, then drag-drops onto a target mc on the stage.The scrolling is no problem, but how would you amend the script above so that the ball can start inside a parent mc rather than on the stage itself?

I have a spark list control whose data is rendered using an itemrenderer. Basically the Item renderer lays out the data within a Panel.
The Panel has a LinkButton, which when clicked needs to pass an Id to the parent application. In the parent application I have a function that dispatches a custom event to its parent. I want to know how to call this function from the ItemRenderer.
I tried using parentDocument.outerfunction etc but it throws an error..

Some forums suggested to simple add the child to the new parent and it would automatically be removed from the old parent. However, these were Actionscript 2.0 forums and the suggestion didn't work - it removed the child but never added it back.MovieClip(root).bmc.addChildAt(currentLetter, 0);Is it possible to take a child from one parent and add it to another in AS3?
