View 4 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Button Removed With RemoveChild() Gets Re-added In It's Over State?
Sep 5, 2011I have a SimpleButton on the stage, and in the click event for it, I remove it using removeChild(). When re-adding the button, it gets re-added in it's "over" state, not the "up" state as expected.
I'm pretty sure it's a bug, so I've filed a JIRA:[URL]..What I've tried: sing visible = false instead works, but I'd prefer to remove it off the stage altogether as the game I'm working on can have a lot of popups/screens. Firing the mouse_out event manually - doesn't work, and in any case, the mouse_out event fires as expected (perhaps before resetting to the up state, it makes a check to see if it's added to the stage, finds out it's not, then quits early)Resetting the stage focus - I thought it was a problem with the stage focus, as you were losing focus when the button was hidden, but resetting it didn't fix it.I could temporarily swap the over and up state when it's hidden, but that seems like an ugly fix.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Separate Functions For Each Button And Added The Line RemoveChild() - Statement
Jan 7, 2012I am trying to load various swfs into a main swf. The initial swf loads in by default, the others load when buttons are clicked. All of the buttons also call a lengthy function called loadpic which appears later in the code - Currently the buttons load in the swfs as required, however the swfs are always behind the initial default swf. Is there a way to add removeChild to the buttons? I have tried creating seperate functions for each button and added the line removeChild(); however doing that means I would also have to repeat all of the later functions as well. If I add removeChild(); without placing it in a function the default swf doesn't show at all.

IDE :: RemoveChild - Make The Close Button Work On Project?
Feb 3, 2010trying to make the close button work on this homework project. This app scatters photos on the stage, randomly and at random angles.

Actionscript 3 :: Error #1006 RemoveChild Is Not A Function. Timer Delay RemoveChild
Mar 29, 2010I'm trying to build a conditional statement that will addChild and removeChild at different Timer Delays. Before I go any further, I thought, I should mention that I'm usinig TweenMax to ease the alpha of ease Child from 1 to 0 and back during the process to imitate a fade-in/out.
I'm getting issue with only one line - inside a conditional statement.It's running "OK". The movie runs as I want it, but the remove/addChild transitions are not at the speed I want it at. I am getting an error message in the output, but other than that, the movie runs fine.

ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild / RemoveChild - Make A Mouesover And Mouseout That Will Display A Help / Key Box On The Screen
Jul 4, 2011I'm trying to make a basic mouesover and mouseout that will display a help/key box on the screen. I created the help box that will be displayed as a symbol called helpbox. I updated the linkage to export to Actionscript and called the class Helpme. The object I'm using to instantiate the Helpme class is a small graphic called helpcoast. I want the "helpbox" in the new class "Helpme" to be displayed only when the mouse is over the helpcoast graphic. When I test the movie and mouse over and mouse out of the graphic once, I get no errors, but if I mouse over it, then off it, then back over again, I get this error in the output box:

NOT To Use RemoveChild?
Feb 9, 2009I've created a MovieClip that opens other MovieClips. These MovieClips are galleries with example of my art and such. Within these gallery MovieClips there is a "close" button, which is actually another MovieClip.
the problem
Everything works except that when I open one gallery, then close it, then open it a second time, the "close" button refuses to work.
I thought this was do to my incorrect use of removeChild, but now I don't know.
This is made slightly tougher by the fact that closing the gallery involves playing a closing animation, so first I put the removeChild on the last frame of the gallery MovieClip. That had the same result so then I tried it this way.[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Only RemoveChild If There Is One
Dec 11, 2009I can't upload the file here because it is too big but I will post the code and a tutorial link plus the problem I've been having.
What the code does is, it gets an image and places it on your stage. This image you place there is reduced in size and when you click on it, it creates a magnifying glass effect.
It works like a charm and looks very cool but the problem is that when I want to go to another page of my presentation, the image stays there, this is because of the addChild function I'm guessing.
Once again, no problem, I just added this to the AS code of every page : removeChild.
You've probably already guessed it, this only works when the child has already been placed. If I go to my intro page and I place the code there it will give me an error since the intro comes before the gallery code. If I don't put the code there it only works if the gallery has already been loaded and I click on pages that come after the gallery.
So what I actually need is code that detects if the child has been loaded or not and if it has, it should be removed, if not, don't do anything.
U can find all the code underneath, it's quite a lot.

IDE :: RemoveChild From An Array?
May 24, 2009I'm trying to figure out why I can't remove the child of the meteors immediately after they have hit the planet or a building so that it would only damage the building once. When I try to just 'removeChild(meteorArray[k])' AS says that the 'object must be a child of the caller'. I'm not sure what that means, but I thought that the meteor was the child of the main document class.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add/removeChild Using An Array
Apr 3, 2010I've set up and button/movie clip array so that when a user clicks on a button, that movie clip loads and the old one goes away. What I'd like to do is use "addChild" to load the new movie clip and "removeChild" to remove the previous clip. I've got the addChild thing...sort of...it loads all the movie clips onto the screen at once though and I can't get the script to work another way.
Here's the code I've got:
var arrNavigation:Array = [{button:m1_mcButton, page:m1_mc},{button:m2_mcButton, page:m2_mc},{button:m3_mcButton, page:m3_mc},
{button:m4_mcButton, page:m4_mc}, {button:m5_mcButton, page:m5_mc},{button:m6_mcButton, page:m6_mc},
