ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Child And Stopping Main Timeline?
Sep 3, 2010So I am loading in external swfs and once loaded in I want to stop the main timeline. so I do the following.
var swf : MovieClip = e.target.content ;
swf.stop();
which doesn't work, because I have trace statements in the external swf which fire off after that command is called. Which, here is another weird thing, When I trace through the loaded swf, it says it has two children, a shape, and a Loader. The shape is weird because what I have is another movieclip on stage so I should get instaceXX, and I dont know where that Loader class is coming from.
which also brings me to another question which is everytime I add the swf to the stage it duplicates the instance, and I run out of memory really fast after I keep removing and re-adding it. all I call is.
targetMC.addChild(swf);
then after the swf dispatches an event saying its done.
targetMC.removeChild(swf);
ActionScript 3.0 :: Controlling Movieclip From Main Timeline & Child?
Sep 26, 2010This code is currently contained within my "mc_1" movieclip. I want to be able to have this code on my main timeline, however no matter what I try I constantly get errors, multiple different versions. I've tried adding mc_1 infront of everything, but that just gives an output error about a Sprite.Also, I'm currently using visible to control whether the back image to the textbox should show - What I'd really like to do is control it using a child, but they're movieclips not buttons, so when I try to addChild within the function it errors saying I'm trying to control a movieclip within a simplebutton function.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();
mc_textbox.visible = false;

View 1 RepliesFlash - Closing Child NativeWindows When Main App Gets Closed (via OS)?
Mar 14, 2012I have been going crazy over this! I have an Air (2.6) app which, when running opens up a pop up NativeWindow, to handle alerts.
public var _alertWindow:NativeWindow;
_alertWindow = new NativeWindow(windowOptions);
_alertWindow.stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
_alertWindow.stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
[code]....
I have had no problems with this across all platforms. But in Windows7, when right click on the taskbar and selecting 'close-window' only closes the main app and not its child NativeWindow. ( This keeps the app running in the background - so when a user tries to access it again it does't run ) I have tried adding event listeners like Event.CLOSING, and various other methods but have failed.how to close windows from the 'close window' option in windows7.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Access Child Swf Function In Main Flash?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Overlapping Classes In Main Swf And Child Swfs
Dec 20, 2011I have a project which has a main swf file that is compiled with a bunch of classes. The main swf also loads in other child swf objects, created in the flash IDE, that happen to reference some of the same classes.
It seems redundant to have the child swfs include the main swfs classes, especially if I update the classes which means I have to recompile all the child swfs, not just the main swf.
Im using FlashDevelop 4.0 RC3 with Flex 4.6/AIR 3.1 to code the main swf, and the child swfs are flas made in CS5.
I was thinking of using SWC's, but I'm not sure how to incorporate that into FlashDevelops workflow. I tried the SWC export plugin but that doesnt seem to work very well, it attempts to export everything in the project and doesnt seem to offer me an option to be specific...
Surely there is a way to compile flas from the IDE and allow for classes to be used for compile type checking etc, but not actually include them in the compiled swf? I know with the flex command line compiler you can generate a link-report xml from the main swf then use that xml file to exlude classes from the compile of the child swfs, but I cant see how to do something like that when exporting swfs from the flash IDE.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Shutting Down Activities Of Loaded CHILD SWF In Main PARENT?
Jul 15, 2011Scenario: in MAIN file, i have a door, when door is open, we can see activities behind the door - LOADED SWF - when the door is shut i would like all the activities behind the door - LOADED SWF to stop
Problem: my first attempt was to REMOVECHILD when the door closed, however, still functions in child=loaded file are continuing Possible Solutions i had in mind: I assumed if PARENT, dispatches an event and CHILD listens, i can say, if the door is closed, dispatch event to the child to stop functions. but it doesnt work, because i assume i dont know how to listen for an event dispatched from parent
[Code]...
I am also open to any alternative solution that helps me shut off the activities when the door closes down, dispatching event was the first thought that came to my mind, not necessarily the only answer i m looking for.

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Load An External Swf To Main Stage From Instanced Child Class?
Apr 15, 2010I am trying to get an instance of a class to the load an external swf and show it.So far I have the following:
1) I wrote a class that uses the Loader class to load an external swf "loadExtSWF".
2) I have a fla named "MainSWF.fla" that uses a document class "MainSWF.as".
3) I have the MainSWF.as file that instances "loadExtSWF" and calls loadExtSWF.startLoad to load the swf.
This almost works. The instance of loadExtSWF loads the external swf, but the swf is not displayed.If I replace the fla's document class with loadExtSWF (this has an empty constructor) instead of MainSWF, and run loadExtSWF.startLoad, then the external swf is loaded and displayed.[code]
ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Child Navigation To Load AddChild Main Time Line
Jan 23, 2009Using Child Navigation to load main time line.I am new to AS3 and have done pretty well but have been caught up this area.I have been loading swfs into a loader (imageLoader) which has been added to the stage using addChild. Then with buttons and functions I load other swfs into the same loader which replace each other. I now have an swf "testProject3a.swf" loaded into (imageLoader) which has icons for navigation and when each icon is clicked I need it to load another swf into (imageLoader) and replace it's self "testProject3a.swf" with "portalB.swf".I've tried adding removeChild code to the loaded swf but it removes the original (imageLoader) and the other buttons have nothing to load into.[code]

Linux :: Intercept A Request To Read A Particular File And Instead Generate The Apparent Output Of That File Read Programatically
Mar 31, 2010A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'
