Nov 8, 2010How can i set the ChildIndex of a MovieVlip that's on the main timeline, by coding inside another MovieClip?
Here is my code on the main timeline.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cannot Set New ChildIndex - Implicit Coercion Of Value
Dec 17, 2010So, in this game I'm working on I'm trying to change the ChildIndex for enemies that are shot down, so that they drop behind a certain background element, instead of in front of it. The enemy in question (when shot down) dispatches an event to my main/engine class, and after that a certain function is called. Here's the code that goes into that function:
Actionscript Code:
var groundObj:DisplayObject = stage.getChildByName("Ground");
var groundIndex:int = stage.getChildIndex(groundObj);
//trace(groundIndex);
setChildIndex(e.currentTarget, groundObj -1);
I'm able to trace the groundIndex variable, but I can't set the new index for the enemy. Errors I get are:
1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type flash.display:DisplayObject.
and
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.display:DisplayObject to an unrelated type Number.
Then, if I try to just put 4 or something, instead of "groundObj -1" I only get the first error. I actually managed to "solve" this problem temporarily by spawning the enemies before I add that specific background element to the stage. Like, if I let the enemies drop bombs or something later, I want the bombs to be one ChildIndex above the player.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Update ChildIndex Of 3D Cube?
Jun 28, 2010I've got a 3d cube that rotates but when the the front side of the cube is in the back during the rotation, it blocks the view of the back side because it's child index is still higher. Is there anyways around it, I tried detecting the sides coordinates by using globalToLocal3D but the z property is always 0. below is my code, just copy and paste if and you'll see what I mean

ActionScript 3.0 :: Sort And Set Childindex Based On Z
Mar 12, 2011I have an array of n Movieclips placed in a circle rotating around the y axis. I have to make sure that the MCs with the higher z values are behind the ones with a lower value, i.e childIndex. I tried a couple of approaches but I don't seem to get it right.
View 2 RepliesButton :: Setting Childindex For Depth Works Only Briefly ?
Jun 9, 2010I am placing several AS3 buttons (actual buttons not event-laden MCs)on a Flash stage and want my enlarged rollover images to always come to the front of all other dormant buttons.My script-fu is weak,but piecing together the advice from several helpful posts I have generally learned how to set the childindex on a rollover event to be high enough to go to the fore.I plugged in the appropriate language in my action frame and was psyched to see that the coding worked...but only briefly.After just a few clicks (it seems that whenever a button is hit for the second time), not only did the childindex trick stop working, but the buttons (which act to send the user to labeled frames later in the time-line) stopped working altogether.It seems that the issue is definitely related to the setting of the childindex, because when I remove those event listeners/commands,the buttons all work fine for an infinite number of clicks (but the enlarged rollover images are stacked in one static sequence, blocking each other out).Is there something inherently incorrect about this approach?Something simple that I am overlooking? Some way to reset the process on each click so it does not get gummed up (I tried re-setting childindex #s to 0 on rollout or on click, but it did not help)?
I have had it suggested that rearranging the order is destroying ability to recognize mouse events...but not sure if this is correct, what it would mean.The code that I am using for each button (for setting the depth and for redirecting on click) is below,
Flash :: Using ChildIndex - Stop It's Behavior Like Pile Of Paper ?
Dec 14, 2011In AS3, changing the childIndex of one movieclip ( say from a list of 10 movieclips), may change the childIndex of some another movieclip ( Flash probably does it to prevent outOfIndex error ) It sometimes become a headache to manage and code them, as movieclips show above each other in an unexpected manner.Is their any inbuilt way to make movieclip stick with a particular childIndex ? ( In AS2 there were depths that kept constant from 0-9999. And it was a real breeze as compared to AS3.0)

I want cast.swf to replace menu.swf and remove it entirely but I cant figure out how to do it,here is what I have tried inside the click function of menu.swf(is this possible? can you write code to remove an swf if you are actually inside that swf's main timeline? )
removeChildAt(0); ( this only removes the bottom layer of the menu.swf)
removeChild(MovieClip(root).loader1); inside the click function ( this does not remove the menu.swf )

ActionScript 2.0 :: Necessary To Remove EventListeners?
Mar 6, 2009Let's say I have a global SoundChannel object, and inside a function I am repeatedly creating new instances of the Sound object to play songs one after the other. Each time I do this, I need to add a new eventListener to the SoundChannel to call the function 'onSoundComplete' that will load the next song on completion.Coming from a strict C++ programming background, I often wonder if it's necessary to do some kind of cleanup in Flash, or if it handles it automagically.Here's example code that specifically removes the eventListener from the previous Sound object everytime a new one is created, but I don't want to be doing this if it isn't necessary:
Code:
// Setup sound object buffer
var slc:SoundLoaderContext = new SoundLoaderContext(3000);

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Remove SWF Using Button
Nov 9, 2009I was trying to integrate two game flash files that I created, by combining them into one file (on one timeline), but was having issues with making my timer stop. As the lesser of two evils (or so I thought) I decided to load one of the games into the other file on a particular button click as an external .swf. This solved the timing issue, but now I don't know how to get rid of the .swf once im done playing it and ready to move on with the original game! I need some buttoncode (AS2) to remove .swf on button click.
Button code to load .swf looks like this...
on (release){
LoadMovieNum("racing_part1_me.swf",2)
_level2.gotoAndPlay(25);
if (_level2.variable=="yes") {
_level2.play();

So far I have the password working and the gallery loads but the gallery loads on top of the swf where you input the password. I want that "password" swf to be removed when the new gallery is loaded. I tried to find some code for this but I can't get it to work so I commented it out. I have pasted the code in that swf below.
I am pasting the link. The gallery in question is behind the "Wholesale button" So click on "Wholesale" and then the password is "TEST"

Remove MovieClip From Stage?
Apr 19, 2010On the click of a button I am having a movie clip load onto the stage from the library using the _root.attachMovieClip command and that part of my code is working perfectly.I have a close button embeded into the movieclip being loaded in but I am unable to get it to remove the movieclip from the stage when the close button is clicked. The close button has to be inside the loading movie clip so it doesn't interfere with other items on the stage which is why i'm not using _visible to show and hide the menu.

Flash :: Remove CS4 Files
Jun 23, 2009I am trying to reinstall Flash in Creative Suite 3 after trialing CS4. (CS3 Flash had some DLL issues and had to be uninstalled since it wasn't working) I have uninstalled CS4 but when I go to install CS3 I get this error "insert Adobe Fireworkd CS4 to continue installation" Now, I did trial fireworks but removed it a while ago, so it appears that there are some remnant files. I ran a CS4 cleaner script from Adobe but it shows that there are no CS4 files that need to be cleaned.
