ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Target A MC Inside AddChild()

Feb 11, 2011

I haven't found my answer with a search of the forum, sorry if this is a redundant question. I am having problems with targeting a MovieClip that is inside another Movie Clip that is placed on stage from the Library using the addChild(); method. This is my code for creating the MC instance on stage:

var pMenuSlide:plusMenuSlide = new plusMenuSlide();
addChild(pMenuSlide);

Now, inside of pMenuSlide there is a MC called cloze, how do I target this MC? This does not work: var pMenuCloze:MovieClip = Object(root).pMenuSlide.cloze

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Link Inside Addchild?

Jul 6, 2009

I have an MC that I want to add to Stage dynamically. Until here everything seems fine:

for (var j:int = 0; j < nomePostosArray.length; j++) {
var MC:MovieClip = new mc();
namelistscroller.text.addChild(MC);

[Code].....

the variable mapLink is inside the MC. This should be a link that should follow when someone press the link button inside MC. This is the only part that is not working.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Variable Inside AddChild()?

Nov 30, 2009

Here's my (simplified) code:

Code:
var doorType:String = "DT0";
var openType:String = "OT0";
var imagePositioner:Sprite = new Sprite(); //Places a Sprite that will "contain"

[Code]....

openType is defined on a previous screen, it will be equal to OT1 or OT2. I have two sets of images (movie clips) that each have a prefix of "ot1_" or "ot2_" (in their class name). Other than those prefixes the two sets of image names are the same. I think I could cut the amount of code in half if I could use a variable when I use addChild.

I am not very knowledgeable of AS3 and everything I've tried has failed. My theory is that addChild() needs to contain a movieclip, so putting a variable name in addChild() doesn't work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Buttons Inside MC Added With AddChild

Feb 22, 2011

I have my Stage. On this I have an empty MovieClip (MC). To begin with I do:

MCContent = new TestMC();
MC.addChild(MCContent);

This works. But in my TestMC, I have another MovieClip Button01, which is named Button01, where I have the code:

Button01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, handleMouseUp);
function handleMouseUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace('Hello World);
}

But when I click on Button01 nothing happens... What am I doing wrong?

ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild Does Not Get The Child Sit Inside Parent Object

I am trying to get a circle shape and a text-field sit inside a square sprite, using addChild() method.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Switching AddChild() Parents - Pictures To Appear As Popups However To Add The Child From Inside The Movieclip

Aug 21, 2009

in my last flash website i built, i created a gallery, my way of creating pages in flash are to have a movieclip as a page, so to make it easier to switch between the paged (page switching functionality is purely done in AS3). the gallery was a problem however, i needed the pictures to appear as popups, however to add the child from inside the movieclip, any masks i use would prevent the popup from leaving the immediate area of the page. so to get around this problem i basically used: MovieClip(root).addChild()

in my opinion this was a mistake, because it created other problems. the problem was that the popups are still connected to the page, even though they are outside of it, which meant that using removeChild() to switch from the gallery, meant that any popup that were still active, 'DIDNT' dissapear, and worse than that, because the page was removed, the popups lost any AS connected to them, which meant the couldnt be removed at all.

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?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't AddChild To Movieclip Inside Movieclip

Jul 13, 2010

my_mediafile.load(new URLRequest("PMP2.jpg"));
//trace ("my_mediafile "+my_mediafile);
trace(mc_pmp.gfx_pmp)
mc_pmp.addChild(my_mediafile);

i have a movie clip(called gfx_pmp) inside of my movieclip (called mc_pmp) and i wanted to add a child to that movieclip gfx_pmp

thought i could use this code

mc_pmp.gfx_pmp.addChild(my_mediafile)

but it doesn't seem to work. when i ran a trace on mc_pmp.gfx_pmp it returned null as a value

trace(mc_pmp.gfx_pmp)
//returns null

i dont see what the issue is here, or why the trace on that is returning null

[object mc_pmp_43]
1st trace gfx_pmp [object MovieClip]
2ndtrace gfx_pmp [object MovieClip]

The newMC doesn't show up.If I add 'parent.' in front of the addChild then it appears.mc_LibItem has a base class of "flash.display.MovieClip" and is exporting for ActionScript and on frame one.For grins I created a new .fla and began messing around with the same addChild idea and it worked.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load External SWFs, AddChild(Loader) Versus AddChild(Loader.content), Etc?

Jul 29, 2009

I have a main "shell" swf which, by clicking several buttons, will load/unload various external swfs into a Placeholder_mc which resides on the main timeline in Shell.swf In the documentation and tutorials I've seen a couple different methods, and I'm not sure I quite understand the difference, or at least the reason you would use one over the other...In the 1st method, you can just add the Loader object using the addChild() method:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);
Placeholder_mc.addChild(myLoader);

This will apparently add myLoader to the display list once it has completely loaded.The 2nd method, you supposedly can add the Loader.content; however, it appears you can only do this once the content has completed loading, so you need to incorporate an event handler with the contentLoaderInfo object:

Code:

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ExternalFileA.swf");
myLoader.load(myURLRequest);

[code]....

What are the pros/cons of adding the entire Loader object, as opposed to the Loader.content and vice versa?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Adding Properties And Events To MovieClips Inside A Loop Inside A Function

Dec 8, 2009

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:

ActionScript Code:
var iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;
