ActionScript 3.0 :: Bitmap Fill An Existing MC / Sprite?
Mar 2, 2011What I want to do is draw the outline of an object using the IDE to create my movieclip symbol...this object will be an enclosed region e.g a cloud. I then want to be able to fill the internal area of the object with a bitmap using actionscript.
I had assumed that I would be able to do this via graphics.beginBitmapFill but there doesn't seem to be a way to specify to draw the outline within the MC or to do a floodfill with a bitmap using a point of origin within an enclosed region.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Adding XML Data To Already Existing MovieClips?
Dec 5, 2011I'm trying to redo my App and have everything added dynamicly, so updating will be a lot easier. I have 3 movieClips in my library. 1 is the holder of the other two. This is done because the holder has a class attached to it, and the 2 other movieClips are where the content is being added.
So basicly what I have now is via XMLList and a for loop the content is placed and displayed on the stage. They are added like this:
PHP Code:
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("Avalist.xml"));
myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
[Code]....
Now what I'm trying to do is add the same amount of content, but different images to the flipHolders that already exist right now but then the sideB in stead of sideA.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Use Loop To Add External Images To Existing MovieClips?
May 29, 2010I have a file with existing MovieClips on the stage that I want to add Loaders to that will call external .jpgs from an XML file. I have the code working, but currently I have to add the Loaders one by one to the MovieClips. I'm sure there's a way to do this more easily by using a Loop, but I can't seem to get it to work no matter what I've tried.
I also want to be able to call a larger version of the image by clicking on the MovieClip/thumbnail. I've got the code working just fine, but when I tried to add a preloader to the full size image Loader, I got an error: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. Flash indicates this is happening at the callFull function so its definitely an error with my preloader code. [code]...
IDE :: How To Remove Sprite Objects
Jan 31, 2010I once saw an effect on a flash add I wanted to try make myself also - the cursor makes a vake that blur out and disapear, much like the vake of a plane, just faster. The problem is I need to remove the vake when it has faded out, or else it just stay in the background and fill up forever! I know there must be an easy way for this. Can some of you tell me the best way here? I have attached the fla-file and scripts. You see a comment where I try to put the code...
View 1 RepliesFlash :: Combining Dynamic Symbols/movieclips On 1 Pre-existing Skeleton/bone Structure
Oct 21, 2010[URL]
I have a "person" so to speak, in flash, with a few different parts; head, pants, shirt and hat. There can be, for example, 10 different colors of shirts for the person. I've done a lot of the AS3 code behind it, but I'm awful in flash, and I've had a ton of trouble with this.
What I'm really trying got figure out (in vain) is how I can have basically a blank skeleton structure (i.e. I'm trying to have "blank" or "placeholder" symbols connected by Inverse Kinematics as bones) consisting of the pants, shirt, & head, and when I find out that shirt #6 needs to be on the person... put it in that placeholder. Does that make sense? That's the big problem. The other thing is that I've had nothing but trouble figuring out how to have, for example, one or two outlines of shirts, and when it sees shirt #6, it fills in that shirt with blue dynamically. But that might be for another question.
How I have it now: In AS3, each of the parts, the shirt, the pants, the head & hat, have their own custom classes behind movieclips, and for example, I've got it set up that the body contains the pants, shirt and head classes, and the head contains the hat class, etc.

Actionscript 3 :: Can't Remove All Images Of A Sprite-container?
May 20, 2011I've got a stack of images.Those images are all added to a sprite container:
var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
container.addChild(img);//added in a loop
addChild(container);
Later, when I iterate through the container to remove the images I say:
for(var i:int=0;i<container.numChildren;i++)
{
var currImg:Sprite = container.getChildAt(i) as Sprite;[code].....
Only a part of the images are removed. If I trace container.numChildren I get the correct number of images to be removed.

ActionScript 3.0 :: When To Remove Child - Sprite To Stay On The Stage Until One Of Two
Dec 16, 2008I have a map with various regions as movieclips. When you mouse over a region, a sprite appears containing xml data. Among this data is a hyperlink. I want the sprite to stay on the stage until one of two
things happens:
- you mouseout of the sprite
- you go to a new region
That seems to be the problem. I've successfully coded the program to remove the child if you mouseout of the sprite. But if you go to a new region, it makes a new sprite and now you have two sprites with xml data on the stage! If I remove the child when you mouseout of the region, then the sprite won't stay on the stage for you to click the hyperlink. How can I make the sprite stay on the stage until:
- you mouseout of the sprite
- you mouseout of the region IF you aren't on the sprite

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove The Dynamic Movieclips?
Nov 9, 2009I've created an XML thumbnail gallery, and would dearly love to add a simple looping preloader animation to each of the thumbnails whilst they are still loading. I'm struggling to remove the preloader movieclip, once the corresponding image has been loaded.
I'm currently creating the new movieclips within the loop, so I'm having problems referencing them in the following load complete function. I gave naming the "spin_loader" instances a go (i.e. spin_loader.name = "spin" + i), and then trying to remove it in the "thumbLoaded" function ( i.e. project_mc.removeChild(getChildByName("spin" + spinNum)), where spinNum is the equivalent number to "i"), but I just can't seem to crack it.
Code:
function createThumbs()

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove Multiple XML MovieClips
Apr 8, 2010I am making a website with complete external xml data holding text and urls to images. I have several categories. One of the category has three sub categories as menu. When I click btn1 it gets the xml and start making text field, rectangles, lines and picture frame for thumbnails. Before that I use a single movieClip container to hold all that stuff and then point it to mask and scroller too.That is working fine. Now the problem is that when I click on btn2 I want to remove previous container and make a new one.
Now what happening is that it is creating one more container of different xml and putting over the previous one. I have used removeChild command and it is still not working. It only works if I use it alone and do not create a new container. All this process is done on a movieClip. That movieClip holds container, mask and scroller. The only thing that is made dynamically is the container. Rest of the items are on the timeline of the movieClip. I need to remove container inside of the movieClip and make a new container inside the movieClip.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Randomly Add And Remove Movieclips
Jan 11, 2009I have a slider on my stage that returns a number between 0 - 300 depending on where the user moves the slide.What I would like to do is add and remove movieclips as the user slides the slider so that the number of movieclips on the stage is proportional to the slider's value.An example: If the slider value is 300, I want 300 circles on the stage. As the slider moves down to zero, the number of circles on the stage decrease.I've been trying to think of the best way to do this. Should I use addChild and removeChild? Or just change the visibility?And what would be the best way to refer to each movieclip? Should I use an array? Or maybe an if/else statement?
View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Loaders From Different Movieclips?
Nov 19, 2009I have a movieclip, let's call it MC1. Inside the actions timeline of MC1, I create a loader and when a button in MC1 is clicked, the loader is added to the stage with an image.
On my maintimeline, you can click a button to bring a second movieclip onto the stage, let's call it MC2. MC2 has the same set up as MC1 where you click a button within MC2 and it adds its own loader with an image to the stage.
The problem is, when I click on MC2, MC1's loader is still on the stage, and I'm having trouble getting rid of it! I tried removeChild(loaderfromMC1) within the actions panel of MC2 but it can't reference variables created in MC1? and I tried removeChild(loaderfromMC1) when the button on the maintimeline is clicked, but it seems that I still cannot reference the MC1 defined variable.
