There is a main movie with button "b1" .Loading external movie in it we have movieclip "b2". Now I add two the SAME listeners on "b1" and "b2" with function deleting from memory.But works only from b1.

View 2 RepliesI have a problem regarding the x, and y coordinates on a flash project of mine. Whenever I set the x and y coordinates for a movieClip:
Code:
function setPos() {
with (mc1) {
_x = 400;
_y = 300;
}}
The MovieClip never gets sent to the proper coordinates.
I have a question (I'm sure somebody asked it before, but I didn't find the threat. How can I delete/destroy/whatever a movieclip during a movie? I made a game, in the game there is a zombie (movieclip), and when its life (life???) reaches zero, it should be destroyed. I tried "removeMovieClip(this)" and much more, but it didn't work, but also there were no errors.

How can you remove or delete a movie clip that has not been attached with attachMovie? And along similar lines, how can you delete a function?

View 2 RepliesHow do I, in actionscript, say "delete all content of a movieclip"?there doesn't seem to be a function called " _root.movieclipname.deleteContent(); "I know an awkward way of doing it; deleteing the movieclip and replicating it in the same coordinates with the same name, but this is a terrible way of doing it.
View 2 RepliesI don't even know what to ask for, but here is my problem: I want to draw a line as part of a graph.Then I want to draw a hollow circle over the line, but I want to cut out the center of the circle, so it shows the layer under the line.At the moment, drawing an outline of a circle the line still shows.I draw the line:
Then I draw the circle:
-----O------
But when I do this in flash I still see the line, the circle is not hollow: How do I 'cut' the middle of the circle out? Instead of beginFill, I want to do beginErase

View 2 RepliesI have created app where images are loaded from xml and displayed onscreen as elements, which can be dragged onto a different 'holder' MovieClip. On successful drop the 'holder' movie generates dynamic movieclip as 'mc' and adds a larger version of the droped image. so i can have multiple child of 'holder' everytime a element is dropped.
now i have created a button, on click of which all the elements should be removed. for which I am using the following code
while (mainFrame_mc.imgArea.holder.numChildren > 0){ mainFrame_mc.imgArea.holder.removeChildAt(0); }
this code is removing the child clips as required but later when i again drop another element. nothing shows up. Unable to understand why is this happening. The holder movie clip is physically present on the stage where as only its child movie clips are added dynamically.
I have the movieclip:mcGrazerwith quite a few dynamic variables like this:mcGrazer.var1mcGrazer.var2etc.If I use:delete mcGrazer;it doesn't delete the variables.But if I use:delete mcGrazer.var1it deletes that individual variable.is there a way to destroy all information (variables) of a particular movieclip?

View 2 RepliesI was wondering how to get my code to delete/remove the last movieclip'cause whenever I go to the gameOver frame the loop to remove all the movieclips leaves out one.
ActionScript Code:
function removeEnemies(spike) {
for (i=0; i<count; i++) {
_root["spike"+i].removeMovieClip();
}
}

What i want to do is to "Unload or Remove" the image under the new one after this new one is 100% loaded.[code]...
My question is How can i remove the MovieClip under the New loaded movie ?
Ive tryied to use "unloadMovie" and "removeMovieClip" but i dont know how to especify the Depth Bellow of the loaded movie or if its possible to delete this movie because is the same Mc "container" that loads the new image. container
stop();

I am implementing a flex auto-suggest combobox - as the user types in each character: Consider the string 'Stackoverflow' and user input = 'st'
1) the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 'st'
2) text is set to auto-suggest string such that the un-typed part is highlighted.
So for instance, the combobox text may contain st'ackoverflow', where 'ackoverflow' is highlighted using setSelectedIndex()When I hit back-space or delete, and check the 'this.text' value, I expect that the last un-highlighted character ('t' in the above case) gets deleted and the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 's'. However the text property contains 'st', as before
I have a .fla that contains five movieclips, and have a couple of questions regarding removing movieclips and swf size.If all the movieclips are displayed, my resulting swf is about 50k.If, in frame 1, I code conditionals that decide which of the movieclips will be displayed, will the resulting swf size become smaller if some of the clips aren't displayed?If so, what is the correct way to totally remove a movieclip from memory? Say I have a main movieclip that contains 5 other mcs, and the as code is within the main movieclip.If not, is there a way to make the swf size smaller if less than all clips are displayed (using conditionals).
View 10 RepliesI'm having what strikes me as a stupid problem, but I can't figure it out myself... it could be a subtle nuance of Flash or just some knowledge I don't have, anyway... I'm making a Flash game with a main menu and multiple levels. We didn't organize our project right (just self-taught college students doing it in our free time) so we made a level before the main menu. I ended up putting the entire level, code and all, into a MovieClip. It creates an instance of that MC when you start a level (I'm sure this was a terrible idea).
But it leaks when I delete the MovieClip and create a new one (i.e. quit the level to the main menu and then start it again). It originally leaked ~6MB each time you quit and started it again, but I've tightened it up to ~1MB, but I'd still like to fix that.
I know to Garbage Collect something you have to remove references, so I've
Blanked all arraysNulled all referencesRemove all MCs dynamically added to the stage and any associated eventsRemoved every single MovieClip from the entire stage, including ones that weren't added dynamicallyNulled practically every object and variable I've only used weak-referenced events, and I've removed all of them anyway, but it's still leaking. There's way too much code for me to post all of it, so I guess I'm just wondering if anyone has any general ideas I haven't thought of.
I've seen people explain how to remove a script created movieclip or shape from memory but what about when you link to a movieclip in the library?
Do you remove that from memory in the same way?
For example would the code below remove this clip from memory?
Code:
// I want this out of memory when the button is pushed.
var my_clip:my_clip_link = new my_clip_link();
addChild(my_clip);

When I test it, it does not show it out of memory on my computer but I read that the GC cleans up when it wants to, so I put in System.gc() to force GC, but I don't see any memory change in the debugger.
Also if I put a stream sound in the timeline of my linked movieclip it keeps playing the sound. If it's not in memory anymore how is it playing the sound? Did I open a portal to another dimension?
I have a bit trouble with LoaderMax memory occupy, i have a queue, and i am keep loading images depend on user's action. if they click load more and it keep load, but i would like to clean the memory which been occupied by the previous queue (i have remove all the children been added by the loading previously). is there a way i can do it? the behavior like this.

I have been working on a flash game where I add sub-animations to a movieclip by attaching child movieclips. This creates a hierarchy of movie clips with different animations, but the result of that was that the parent movieclip ended up growing indefinitely and eating lots of memory. Is there a way I can optimize such animation? If bitmap caching works, would I be able to cache all the children which were added before runtime (e.g children movieclips which were added during design and before publishing the SWF).
View 2 RepliesI have an FPS monitor running and notice that I am getting choppiness here and there, bringing my game from 40 to 27 fps and back and forth at certain stages. I have an idea of where it is happening, but do not know for sure. I looked up quite a few memory monitors but haven't found anything decent yet. Is there a memory monitor that allows you to see the memory leaked and find its location? If not, how about just he memory leaked?
View 4 RepliesI performed a benchmark test memory consumption by three DisplayObjects - MovieClip, Sprite, and Shape.
Below are results and method used. I just wanted to create instances. Test with adding instnaces to display list showed a slight difference in terms of memory consumption.
Observations: Sprite uses from 16 to 22% with average 18% less memory than MoviClip.
Shape uses from 42 to 55% with average of 46% less memory than MovieClip.
Shape uses from 32 to 42% with average of 35% less memory than Sprite.
