ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing Contents Or Sprite Using RemoveChild?
Oct 24, 2011
I have several images loaded onto several sprites from a loader such as
var pict:Loader = new Loader();
ur = urlAddressStringHere;
var re:URLRequest = new URLRequest(ur);
pict.load(re);
pict.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMP LETE, lo);
function lo(event:Event):void {
mySprite.addChild(pict.content);
}
The problem is removing the content or the sprite using removeChild. I am unable to do either and do not know what to do.

I have added a Child from my library as follows:
Code: Select allfunction menuIn(param1:Number=0, param2:Number=0):void {
var menu_mc: menu = new menu
menu_mc.x=220;
[Code]....
How can I then remove it, I get this error: 1120: Access of undefined property menu_mc.

I am using a loader to load an asset to the stage from a class, the image is called "1.jpg". Using a timer event, after a certain amount of time that image is to be replaced with image "2.jpg", then after some time it is replaced with "3.jpg". etc.The way I set it up is using a series of if statements inside the timer function. At timer count 10, I first remove the child from the stage and then load the new image.[code]
However the removeChild(my_loader) does not work, it gives an error saying that it cannot be null

How do you resize a sprite without resizing the contents? For example the script below create a sprite, attaches it to the root, creates a button, attaches the button to the new sprite then resizes the sprite. but it scales the button when I try to resize?[code]...

I'm performing the following operation many times (sniped of code below). I'm creating a two dimension array whose overall size depends on each iteration the process takes.
myArray = new Array(); // initialize the array
myArray[0] = new Array(); // add new array to first index
myArray[1] = new Array(); // add new array to second index
Question is: When I need to recreate this sequence again, do I just perform the same operation (repeat the same 3-lines)? Or is there a way of freeing up resource first.

if you view my project you will see that it is a drag and drop application. You will also see two buttons at the bottom (I plan on adding more), when you click on a box it will add more objects to the menu. Heres where my question comes in, the box then says remove on it, I want the items that were added by clicking on the box to be removed as well as items added to the stage when you click on that same box again, how do I do this?

When I'm removing an object from the display list (via removeChild), I'm performing a splice on all of the arrays that the object has:
[Code]....
My thinking was that this frees up some memory similar to disposing a bitmapdata. Does this even do anything? Or, will arrays be cleared and the memory usage restored when the object is removeChilded?

I'm having trouble removing the an event listener as well as the sprite at the same time. I currently get an error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
And if I comment out removeChild, I have no error but, obviously, the sprite remains on the screen. how I can rid myself of that error?
//Bullet extends Sprite Class
bullet:Bullet = new Bullet();
mc.addChild(bullet);

I am trying to get an image object from one sprite container and adding it to another sprite container. But when I use GetChildAt for this, it will remove the object from the parent sprite and place it inside the other.
Code:
sprContainer1.addChildAt(sprContainer2.getChildAt( 1),0);
Problem is when I run this code sprContainer2.numChildren is getting reduced by 1, which seems that this code removes a child from sprcontainer2.

I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I have created 2 sprites each containing a dynamic text field child. I then add this as a child of the stage. (I have done this in order to make the text clickable with a hand cursor on mouseover)It loads in fine, I just run into problems when trying to REMOVE it the sprite containing the text."ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller."Sections concerned in red:

I'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.

I have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.

I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.

I created a class, extended the sprite class, and now in the constructor I am trying to set the Sprite's width and height properties which are inherited from the DisplayObject. However, after I set this.width and this.height, and print the values, I get 0 for both.
What the heck is going on? When I view the livedocs I see that DisplayObject has width and height listed as public properties. I have been able to instantiate a Sprite directly, and set the width and height after it's been instantiated, so I don't get it.
package {
import flash.display.*;
public class ScrollBar extends Sprite {[code].....

I'm doing a simple rotation on a sprite but there's a weird behavior where the sprite does not rotate around it's top left. I think I'm rotating along the top left of the test class instead of the sprite child. I would like to rotate the rectangle around it's top left corner (kinda like a clock hand). The code is pretty short so I'll let the code + pictures explain my problem:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code]....
I've read a lot of stuff about rotating around a fixed point, I've tried doing it with movieclips instead of sprites, I even copy pasted a tutorial on rotation and nothing works.

Then the numericStepper is drawn as if it is squished to 20% its normal height. If I pre-set mySprite width and height before adding the numericstepper, the trace output is 0,0 after adding it and it is not displayed at all. Is there some way I can make the sprite only adjust to correctly fit the numericStepper OR resize it afterwards without distorting the numericStepper component?

Everytime I google this question I see confusing information about masks and blends, none of which seems to directly apply to what I think should be an easy thing... There are three Sprites involved here...the lowest layer sprite is pretty much a background. I want to overlay a translucent Sprite on top of the background and then I want the third, top-most Sprite to act as a hole, so that the area inside the third Sprite is completely transparent, so that the background sprite is completely visible. How would I go about doing this dynamically (i.e. dynamically drawing the masking sprite and hole using the Actionscript graphics calls)?
