Actionscript 3 :: Determine If A Child Exists?
Mar 19, 2012I have an event driven flash program. I need to be able to call removeChild() if and only if an object is a child. getChildByName() and most other functions don't seem to allow for this and if you call removeChild() on an object that isn't a child it will throw an error. I suppose an option may be to catch the thrown error and just ignore it, but that seems like a bad solution.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Conditional To See If Child Exists
Mar 9, 2010I m making a basic menu effect. Normally I would animate all this in flash on the timeline but im trying to learn as much as i can about coding. I was actually impressed that i was able to create just this simple animation, but i want to write a conditional that lets me see if a child exists on the stage, if so remove it, if not run a function. Heres where I am so far.[code]as you can see the hardware text drops down and comes in from the top but stays on screen when you mouse out.basically what i want to do in my hardwareOut function is to run a conditional to see if topText exists, if so remove it and if not then gotoAndPlay().

View 2 RepliesActionScript 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.

I have included colour to the the event triggers to allow me to see what is happening at the moment the coin_slot image that I add does seem to remove from the stae but there still seems to be something hidden within the stage.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove The Child
May 9, 2010I have a missile which gets fired once the mouse button is down. The main class snippet is:
ActionScript Code:
public function moveTheBullet(event:Event):void
{
if(buttonDown)
[code]....
The bullet is now flying across the screen thanks to the Rock class which control its velocity and direction. When the missile is off the screen, however, I'd like to remove it, so it doesnt eat up memory. This is how I'm trying to accomplish that (the code's in the Rock class):
ActionScript Code:
public function moveIt(event:Event):void
{
if(this.x > 200)
[code]....
But yeah, its not working at all. I'm getting the error: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. how to remove the bullets.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Child Within Other?
May 12, 2011I am making a game (surprise, surprise). In the game there are things to collect, possibly lives. I can add them to the screen but removing them is an issue. The best way I have worked out is to create a sprite called livesContainer, add all the lives to that, then, if the user returns to the main menu, I can remove all of the lives by removing that one container. Here's how I create all of the lives and add them to the stage. This all works and you don't really need to read all of it.[code]...
