Actionscript 3.0 :: AddChild And Cascade Position?
Aug 10, 2009I have a customized colorpicker that will be added to the stage dynamically depending on what movieclip is in a particular frame - so to ease coding, I've created a class with all my customizations and wish to add a label, dynamically, to each colorpicker. However, here is the issue, I can't seem to add the label to the stage because the colorpicker keeps reporting it's positions as x = 0 and y = 0.to add the label to the stage in a relative manner fails.
Code: Select all
myPicker = new ColorPicker();
myPicker.x = 30;

ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild Random Position Contraints
Oct 20, 2011I'm trying to code addChilld to spawn a movie clip at a random x position and then have it spawn at a random y but constrained so it only spawns between say 200 and 400 (on an 800x600 stage).
I've got it spawning at a random x, its just the constrained y
Heres the code I have so far: (Note: This is only for the function with addChild)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Container - AddChild To Set Position - Array?
May 20, 2009I am creating a container. When I press a button outside the container it adds a movieclip. The movieclip is the width of the container but only a fraction of the height.
I need to know how to get it so every time I press the button it adds the movieclip after the last one, almost like appending a list. Does anyone know how I would do this?Do I use an array or does flash have some sort of table feature?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Z Position Impact On Stage Position?
Jan 13, 2011I have a sprite that I zoom out using the sprite.z property. Once the z property has been modified the sprite x and Y values do not match the stage x and y real value. So far so good and what I was expecting!
What I want to accomplish is that when the user clicks the stage the sprite tweens to where the mouse was clicked but I don't know what x and y position to send to the sprite. ( since stage 200,200 is something like 400,400 for the sprite depending on z value)
I tried Utils3D.projectVector using Matrix3D of the perspectiveProjection of the stage without success. (i.e. I get Vector3D(Infinity, Infinity, NaN))
I could fallback to scalex/scaley but sprites.z gives me the correct scale, perspective projection, paralax scrolling since I have sprites on different z level all for free. I would have to recode all that.

Flash - Stage Shifts When Using AddChild?
Jan 6, 2010I'm having a very odd bug with ActionScript 3 in Flash CS4. I am adding movie clips to a stage in a for loop and then moving them out of view so that I can pull them in and remove them when I need them.
I've narrowed down the issue to a point that I know that every time one of the movie clips are added to the stage using addChild(), the stage shifts to the right by one pixel. I know that sounds odd, but it's literally true... the 0 line on the y axis is shifted to the right one pixel every time the movie clip is added.
Here's the code that is doing the work:
private function setupSlides():void
{
for(x = 0; x < TOTAL_SLIDES; x++)

ActionScript :: Php - AddChild To Stage From Class
May 31, 2011I am trying to add an object to my main stage via the addChild() method. Normally, when working within the FLA itself, using addChild(myObject) works just fine. However, it does not work within an external AS class.
All of the other tutorials I have found showed me how to do something like this, which is not what I need:
var myMovieClip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
myMovieClip.addChild(myObject); // Works great, but not what I need

Flash :: AddChild Is Overlaying A MovieClip On The Stage?
Oct 25, 2011How do I make sure that a movie clip that starts on the stage has a higher zindex then when I addChild and add a linked movieClip from the library.
Really my code is pretty simple
background_image = new Sprite();
main_container.addChild (background_image);
But I have a movieClip "message_box" that I dragged onto the main timeline. When i add the background_image which is the full size of the stage it overlays the "message_box"
I know you can set the childs index but how do I set the "message_box" index?

Changing Order When Loading Images In As AddChild On Stage?
Jul 30, 2010I have a movie on stage that acts as a button using the code. person_mc.buttonMode = true;
I load an image onto the stage from my library using addChild(holiday);
What happens is that the person_mc button I have on stage will not function anymore, because I am presuming it is underneath the holiday pic when I loaded it using addChild.
How do I load the holiday pic, so that it is underneath the person_mc?
I know I could do what I did with holiday using addChild for the person_mc, but I do not want to do it that way.
ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild To Create Multiple Instances Of An MC On The Stage?
Jun 28, 2009I'd like to create a chain of objects (either movie clips or sprites) that move left to right across the stage continuously. I know I can create two movie clips that contain a series of several 'chain links' and are each a little wider than the stage width. Then I can move both clips across the stage and when the first movie clip is completely off stage reset its x position back to 0. Likewise, when the second clip is completely off the stage on the right, reset it's position off the stage to the left.
This works and gives me the basic effect that I want by creating this uninterrupted moving chain, but it doesn't seem like its the most efficient way to achieve this. What I thought would be more efficient would be to create each link in the chain separately from an individual mc in my library by programmatically adding new instances to the stage.So, I created a single chain link mc and set its export linkage to 'Link' and left the base class to flash.display.MovieClip. Next, I placed the following snippet of the code on the first frame of my movie:
Code:
var xPos:int = 0;
var yPos:int = 100;
