ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing A Child Under A Special Condition?

Jan 28, 2010

Work_mc has to be removed when you click personal_btn under only one occurrence. When it is loaded from workss_mc. When it is loaded from workss_mc it is done with addChild.So this is the navigation in a whole.

Button

Work -> work_mc(selection of work)(on timeline) -> workss_mc (this contains all work) added as a child Personal -> personal_mc(selection of work)(on timeline) -> persoanlss_mc (this contains all personal work) added as a child

So the goal is here, is once you are in personalss_mc or workss_mc you need to be able to go back to personal_mc or work_mc to look at the selection of work here, so by doing this I am using addChild & removeChild. This is where the problem lies, if a user does this then decides to swap pages then the page overlaps work_mc or personal_mc.

Adding Child At Video CuePoint, Then Removing Child At Another CuePoint?

Aug 4, 2009

However, either I'm declaring my variables at the wrong bit/way or there is another problem, as I have been able to add the child I want to from the display list (sidepoint: is it right to call the display list everything in the library on stage at runtime plus those things you have exported for actionscript usage??!)...but when I want to remove it at the next cuepoint nothing happens. I feel this is a basic principle that is alluding me here.

Code:
vid.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT, cueText);
function cueText(e:MetadataEvent): void{

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing Child One By One?

Aug 10, 2011

Here it is:
 
var ZombieInstanceTimerL:Timer = new Timer(8000,60);
ZombieInstanceTimerL.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, ZombieTimerLfunction);
ZombieInstanceTimerL.start();

[Code]....

Basicly im first setting a timer of 8 seconds for a zombie to sprawn then it sets the properties and then using the addChild method it adds the zombie every 8 seconds. then i made the zombie move but as if it hits the character i make it stop and go to the attacking scene which is frame 4 and then when it isnt hitting it, it goes back to frame 2 which is walking,, then i made a Zombie death code which works by in the zombie attack class it has hittests for all the weapons and it reduces a varible in a GlobalVaribles class the varible is called ZombieHP and here it says if ZombieHP is below 1 it should go to 3 which is the death scene and add a point to the score but the hp and gotoAndStop affects all of the zombies so when it hits one they all die how can i make it so only the one its hitting can be affected..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing Target Child?

Jan 8, 2012

I've run into a problem when trying to move one of my sprites from the stage when it dies.So far what I'm having to do is call the Death method from the main class, which then goes to the Enemy Class in order to play the animation, once the animation has reached the last frame an event is triggered which is situated in the main frame which then removes the now dead enemy from the stage. However it doesn't appear to be able to target the child which I want removed =/Main Class:

Code:
private function hitCheck(e:Event = null):void{
var samuraiPos:Number = SamuraiChar.samuraiPos();

Flex Error When Removing Child

Oct 6, 2010

Have a rather bizarre issue with Flex throwing an error when teh application is running in the background. I use Selenium and SeleniumFlexApi to run various tests against my app. If the browser window is in the foreground or any part of it is visible to teh screen, the test pass as expected. However, if the window is in the background and not visible, I am getting the following error in 1 part of my app.

ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. I have a VBOX that creates a number of children and then upon creationComplete(or UpdateComplete, I've tried both) it then needs to remove any of the children that are not visible. Each child has a listener for CreationComplete which checks if the child is visible and if not, adds it to an array which is iterated over when the parent UpdateComplete is fired. I cant seem to find any reason for this behavior and am curious if its an issue with the Flex Component LifeCycle.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing A Certain Variable Child?

Nov 28, 2010

I'm trying to create s simple website by using flash. My idea was to have a series of buttons that when i click will add a child to my stage. Now my problem is that i can only figure how to remove that child again by clicking the same button, i would like that the child could be removed by clicking any given button.

Below you see the code for two of my buttons. It is basically made up of the snippets from Flash CS5. I've restricted the amount of children thath can be added, so that no two subpages (children) can be added at the same time. When i add the child by pressing a button the child will be the seventh child on the stage. Is it possible to then make a piece of code for the button so that given a child number seven is already at the stage this will be removed?

ActionScript Code:
infobtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_info);
var fl_Loader:InfoPage = new InfoPage();
var fl_ToLoad:Boolean = true;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding - Removing Child For A UI Loader?

Nov 9, 2009

I have 4 separate photogalleries, they are all swfs called by buttons with UI loaders attached. The problem is when one is called the loader remains on the stage I need to be able to remove any loader on stage BEFORE calling another page weather its a photogallery or not.Easiest explanation is how I used to do it in AS2 example 2 btns /2 load separate swfs into level1 on each btn I would have

unLoadMovie(1)
LoadMovie (xxx.swf) 1

I need to do the same thing in AS3 Also, do I need to use separate loaders or can I use one loader and instance names? Below is the code I have now (btns are in two areas)

main timeline btns (all btns except photogallaries)
stop();
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onHomeClick);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Coding Hierarchy And Removing Child?

Jan 26, 2010

To give a brief background of what's going on here. I am building a personal site where I have a navigation, and I have other subnavs inside of certain pages. Such as if I go to "work" inside of work i have "motion", "web" & "print".

I'm having a problem with remove child in certain areas.. One would be when I load one page from the navigation then go to the "WORK" link, work won't show. Also..when I remove a movieclip elsewhere(this is under the same circumstance) then click on a link it does not remove that movieclip that is loaded again.

For example, click personal, click a thumbnail,(this adds workpersonalss_mc) then click back(this removes work personalss_mc then adds workpersonal_mc back), the click a navigation button it still remains..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing Child Spawned From Array

Mar 11, 2010

I'm having trouble removing a child that I have spawned from an array. If I try to use the same for each loop that I use to address the children in the array in other functions, it removes all children that are in the array, but if I try to remove only that child, it complains the child is null. The clickListener function is working out if the crosshairs are on the cow when the mouse clicks, but I want to wait two seconds (to allow the death animation to play in the clicked cow) before removing the child.

Here's what I'm doing:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
[Code] .....

It's the removeChild(cow) line that throws the "null" error.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding And Removing Child With Multiple Buttons?

Mar 30, 2010

I understand that the major difference between AS2 and AS3 is that in AS3 you have to put all your script in a separate layer, and unlike AS2 you can't add them to buttons or movie clips themselves on their respective layers.

I'm doing a project for school where I'm required to make a flash portfolio.

I have Five buttons, and right now, two of those buttons goes to a frame to display a picture. However, I've made the other buttons dynamic, and they call other swf files to show an image gallery, a game and another image viewer.

What I have a problem with is when I click the first dynamic button, and the swf if added to the parent movie clip, it does not leave the stage when another dynamic button is clicked.

So what I have is all the SWFs loaded on top of each other.

writing a code that will remove child for each button when ANY other button is clicked.

here is the code I have:

stop();
btn3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop(3);
