ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild From A Class - Get The Error "1180 : Call To A Possibly Undefined Method AddChild?
Jun 15, 2011
I'm trying to have a class file which can add objects to the stage via addChild; however, when I call addChild from within the class file, I get the error "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild." I've tried importing flash.display.* and that doesn't fix the problem. Does the class file have to extend Sprite or MovieClip to be able to add objects to the stage?
I have downloaded Box2d ([URL]) and created a project that looks like this: [URL]. catalyst is the green cube and it has the base class "shapes.box", it is inside "world" which has the base class "wck.World". What i want to do is to add another "catalyst" from the library inside "world" when i click on add_btn. I tried to accomplish this by this code:
[Code]...
Symbol 'buttons', Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 41061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type Class.
I got this Error : 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type Class.
what I'm trying to do :I have create a new class called Graph and make it extends Sprite and add a scroolpane to my stage and make an empty movie clip called content_mc and make the source of the scrollpane equals to content_mc
in the first frame i wrote this code
import Graph; var graph:Graph = new Graph();content_mc.addChild(graph);
Im getting this error: 1180C: as3_scrollbarAS3 ScrollbarsrcclassesMain.as, Line 1 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addFrameScript. the actionscript in my .fla timeline is: _scrollBar = new FullScreenScrollBar(_content, 0x222222, 0xff4400, 0x05b59a, 0xffffff, 15, 15, 4, true); addChild(_scrollBar)
I'm new to oop and I'm trying to convert a auto scrolling TextField into a class. I guess it has something to do with there not being a stage when the class is instantiated but I'm not sure how to get around it. my code:
In Flash CS5 I am trying to load an image from a class and I am getting Call to a possibly undefined method addChild. In the class fileNot sure how to fix this as I have a sprite class and believe I have done everthing correct.The image is in the same folder as the .fla and .as file
I've got a function that call's on a class too make a chess board. The problem is, is that I'm getting this Error:1180: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild.Now if I just copy paste CreateBoard into Exercise1.as it works and creates a board but if I add it as a function too BoardSquare it works and traces out 32,32 but doesn't display anything![code]
I get this error message a lot and I normally know how to resolve them. However, not this one! I call a function from within a class function (and the called function is within the class .as file.) My question is: does Actionscript allow you to call a function within a function cuz it sure appears not!My code: looks like this
ActionScript Code: package asdata{ //<import list suppressed >
I am a newbee and just starting to learn about AS3. Copied some ideas and tried to paint a single particle on the stage for starters. No success! I get this...1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.In an "Particle.as" file I have this code...
i have tried to create a sakura petal falling using flash AS3 along with flash my codes always get error message "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Sakura1." line 16, could anyone tell me why is that happen?
I am trying to script an external text loader in CS4 and am getting the same error message every time. I have loaded an external font into my library and renamed it font2. the error is on Frame 1, Line 2 var myFont= newfont2Here is the script
var myFont= new font2 () myTextField_txt.embedFonts=true; myTextField_txt.antiAliasType=AnitAliasType.ADVANCED;
var class:Class = getDefinitionByName("Box") as Class; var box:MovieClip = new class()
*Box is a class that exists inside my library (A movieclip that is exported for actionscript) I have this code in two places: My document class and some other random class. It works in the document class. It fails to work in the other class (I get the error in the title) Both classes extend MovieClip (if that makes any difference) So what's going on here? Do you know the problem with what I'm doing?
I new to AS3 and Flash and have a question about this code. I can't seem to discern how the Menu is generated. The stage has only 3 object, 3 buttons the menu return buttons. My copy is based on this exact code but I get this error: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method menu. var button:MovieClip = new menu(); The working copy of this .fla file somehow generates a MENU with the names Project 1 - drag and drop
I used to work on AS2 to make my animations, buttons and portfolios, but now I needed to use AS3 to make some forms interact with some PHP script. TextInputs and Buttons on COMPONENTS are working and interacting normally with PHP. My PreLoader is working great too. But what should the easiest is not working: MY SIMPLE BUTTONS! It used to be so easy in AS1 and 2, but now on AS3 it's not working. I am putting all my action and codes in a ACTIONS FRAME in the top of my animation, but it is not working! I have my Preloader on my frame 1 working, calling my animation on frame 2. The code is here (it's working):
I'm following the Advanced After Effects for Flash tutorial, but run into some errors. I've pasted the Caurina map into the same folder as where my .fla is located. Description:1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Over.1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Over.
My script Code: Select allimport caurina.transitions.*; btnTV.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnTV_ROLLOVER);
var pt:MovieClip = new RoadObstacle(); addChild(pt); // stop()
B) In my library I have an MC with a linkage of RoadObstacle.
C) I have an AS file called: RoadObstacle.as
It works as long as the .as file is right next to the .fla file. I move the .as into folder path com.screenscape.game - I update both the .as package path and the path for the library symbol in the .fla - then run it and i get:
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method RoadObstacle.
I'm trying to get a jpg image from the fatcloud swf - am getting the following error 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method createJPG.
Actionscript Code: public function createJPG (m:MovieClip, q:Number, fileName:String){ var jpgSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData (m.width, m.height); jpgSource.draw(m); var jpgEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(q); var jpgStream:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode(jpgSource); [Code] .....
So im trying to gain access to flash vars but i kept getting this error: Line 27 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method LoaderInfo.
I have tried putting the below code in and outside of my class but it seems from what i have gathered that it thinks 'LoaderInfo' is another function which it is not.
