ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference From One Child Class To Another?
Apr 29, 2010I have one custom class named player, which plays video from RTMP Server. It has property named cliptime:Number and it holds the video's duration through the metadata.duration property. I have other class named controlbar which holds the control bar for the video. I use TweenMax.to to move It's video slider and I want the tween's duration value to be the player class' cliptime property. But I can't get this value. Both classes are child of ramesCont class and are added to it. framesCont and controlbar extends Canvas class, and player extends Sprite if it matters.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Get Reference For Child Of Loader Type
Apr 26, 2010I am using loader to load an image "1.jpg" in the constructor.Using a timer, after 5 seconds I want to remove the child and then reload another image however removeChild doesn't work, neither does getChildIndex. In the constructor I can call getChildIndex and it outputs 1, however in the Timerevent function it seems that I cannot get access to the my_loader created in the constructor.
However from the Timerevent function I do have access to the variable test that I created in the constructor. Why is it that I can access test, but not my_loader and how can I fix this so I can get the reference to my_loader within the Timerevent function? I tried moving the loader outside of the constructor but then I get a message saying that my_loader is undefined for the line "my_loader.load(new URLRequest("1.jpg"));"[code]...
Actionscript 3 :: Reference MovieClip After It Is Added To Stage As A Child
Nov 22, 2011I am currently having problems referencing a MovieClip child which I add to the Stage from the Document Class. Basically when the MovieClip child is added to the Stage from the Document Class, I want a certain MovieClip already on the Stage to reference it once it is on the Stage.
Also, if it is possible, I don't want the MovieClip referencing the child being added to the Stage to have parameters linking it with the Document Class, because I plan on nesting this MovieClip within another MovieClip later on in the future.
Here is the code for the MovieClip class which is referencing the child once it is added to the Stage:
package com.gameEngine.assetHolders
{
import com.gameEngine.documentClass.*;
import com.gameEngine.assetHolders.*;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference Child/parent Movie Clips With Event Handlers?
Jan 13, 2010I am wondering how to correctly reference child/parent movie clips when creating event handlers? I have a button within a movie clip, which is within a movie clip.This is what my handler looks like right now:
this.DropMenus.DMSeats.ButtonSeats.addEventListener("click",SeatsOver) ;
The button instance name is ButtonSeats Problem is, I get this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Also, if I were to move the vent listener directly into the movie clip where the button is located, how could I reference the parent/ parent timeline(the main timeline)? Am I correct to understand that .this refers only to the current clip?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Unable To Reference Child Display Objects Of Clip Imported From Library?
Jun 17, 2009PBar contains two SimpleButtons (pBarProgress and pBarLoaded) and a MovieClip (pBarBg).I import pBar from the library like this:private var pBar:PBar = new PBar();and add it to a container MC on the stage like this:containerMC.addChild(pBar);Up to this point, everything works great. I can see pBar and its children on the stage when I run my movie. But then I want to start referencing and manipulating pBar's child objects, but nothing I do works. Ive tried ...pBar.pBarProgress.scaleX = 0;var pBarProgress:SimpleButton = Bar.getChildByName("pBarProgress") as SimpleButton; pBarProgress.scaleX

May 12, 2010The following code works fine. However, rather than refering to the child by instance name I want to use something like the as2 _level1.gotoAndStop.
The idea is that it'll work for any .swf that is added using addChildAt(1) and therefore avoid having to repeat the code for lots of different .swfs
Code:
stop();
var thisMovieClip:MovieClip;
var thisLoader:Loader = new Loader();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Buttons To Open Child Swfs Then Be Able To Close The Child From Within The Child?
Mar 25, 2009I have a picture on the stage that has multiple items that have hotspots/links over them that should open a child swf on top of the background and show details about the items. then have a button in the child swf itself that removes the child from over the background so the user can click on another item etc.I found this code in someone's post and I am trying to modify it so that works for multiple swf files...it currently works for a single swf.I wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the referring button.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Compiler Is Throwing That 1000: Ambiguous Reference Error For Any Reference ?
Sep 3, 2007I'm having this frustrating error showing up and I have no idea why. Let me show you my classes and see if you can spot anything wrong.
First, here's my ILode interface:
ActionScript Code:
package com.schelterstudios.lodeSystem.flash.lodescode].....
So the problem I'm having is the compiler is throwing that 1000: Ambiguous reference error for any reference to instance.priority or instance.label. Why??? Instance is typed to IFlexLodeInstance, and IFlexLodeInstance lists method signatures of priority and label getters, and it inherits ILode, which lists method signatures for priority and label setters. What can I do to get the compiler to stop complaining?
Flash :: Reference The Default `this` Reference In Actionscript3 From An External Package?
Jul 7, 2011My code is an external .as file. Google provides this code on their demo, which contains the this keyword:
[Code]...
Notice that I have 4 calls to console.log. The first 3 fire, but after the new GATracker statement, the 4th does not fire. I have a feeling that I'm overriding the entire package with the object created from new GATracker when I should be passing a different context. I believe the correct context I should pass is whatever this defaults to when not inside of a package/external file, I assume it references the main stage object.

ActionScript 3.0 :: DropTarget Parent Child - Removechild Won't Remove A Child
Aug 21, 2010I 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.

Actionscript 3 :: How Can A Loaded Child Swf 1 Communicate To Next Child Swf, Child Swf 2, Which Is Currently Not Loaded
Oct 14, 2011I have a parent swf with three buttons: next button, back button, ticker on/off button.I have three child swfs, each with a ticker mc. When I click on ticker button on parent swfit dispatches a custom event which brings ticker MC on stage and thus ticker becomes visible (ticker off button displaces it out of stage by changing the value of ticker_mc.y).
the problem I am facing is when ticker is on and I click next or back button to load next or previous child swf, the ticker goes off. How can I make sure that ticker is on all the time and closes only when I close it. How can a loaded child swf 1 communicate to next child swf, child swf 2, which is currently not loaded, that since the ticker is on on swf 1 so you please keep the ticker on on swf 2 as well?!
I think I know the problem. I have put a default value of ticker_mc = 160 (makes ticker inactive) on every child swf. So, the ticker becomes inactive everytime I load a new child swf. If someone could guide how can I do this, my problem will be solved: When first child swf is loaded, the default value of ticker_mc.y should be 160. I want to hold this value in a variable. When I click ticker active btn, position of ticker_mc changes to 194 so the value of variable should change to 194. When I click next btn, the variable value (160 or 194) should be sent to next child swf and ticker_mc.y should be equal to variable value.
This is the code so far
"Next button"
go_mc.next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playNext);
function playNext(e:MouseEvent):void {
if (swf_no < (clips.length-1)) {
