ActionScript 3.0 :: Kill A Movieclip When It Ends?
Aug 3, 2010
I need to add several copies of a movieclip at random times. When each clip plays out I need it to be removed. What I'm trying is the following:
var list:Array = []
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
function(e:Event){[code]............
The first script is working but the last one is not. How should a movie clip instance remove itself?I'm used to AS2 where it just requires this.removeMovieClip(). I've tried to search for an equivalent in AS3 but can't find

I'd like to remove a MovieClip instance from the main timeline (and do a few other things) once that movie is over.
Scenario: I've got a frog catching a fly with his tongue. Once the frog-tongue movie clip is over, I want to remove both the tongue, and the fly from the timeline. Both the tongue and the fly are MovieClip objects. The tongue animation starts based on a TimerEvent. I'd like to say something like: when the tongue MovieClip ends, call removeChild() on tongue and fly.[code]...

I want to be able to know when a certain movieclip animation ends (Flash MX).For example: The players character shoots an arrow, while the arrow animation is on - the players character can't move when arrow animation ends - the players character is free to move again.
How do I do that?I've tried putting some AS in the last frame of the animation (letting the application know that animation has ended) but once in a while this AS doesn't execute - maybe Flash drops some frames (and that frame among them)?Do I have an event for movieclip ending (Flash MX)?Is the only way is to use timeouts (setInterval)?

So I have a quick movie clip and when that clip finished I want to do the following:
Code:
_root.logo_top.attachMovie("sabotage_media_logo", "sabotage_media_logo_mc", _root.logo_top.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._x = 50;
_root.logo_top.sabotage_media_logo_mc._y = 50;
What do I need to do? I tried doing onClipEvent(load) but it loads it at the start of the clip.

I am using flash cs3 and I have a series of quotes that fade in and out. I have a movie clip that does the fading in and out and then nested in there I have the quotes.
fadeInOut1_mc (is the instance of the fading in and out)
quotes1_mc (is the instance of the timeline of quotes nested in the above movie clip)
When the quotes end I would like the main timeline in Scene 1 to move to the next frame and play.
fadeInOut1_mc is in the timeline of Scene 1
If I could do that I think I'd be off to the races, but I'm stuck on it.

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

Sometimes it is necessary just to kill focus (e.g. from the TextField instance). But I found no ways to do that. The only solutions is to set focus on another instance that handles mouse events.

I have a loop
[Code]...
This if statement is checked by compiler 10 times but I only need once(i.e. when i==0).So once it has been executed or say the statement condition is true,can I kill it. Meaning that this statement won't read by compiler or ignored.

I have figured out how to use loader to bring external .swf files into my project, but I have lots of buttons bringing lots of different swf files in and I want to have a home button that will kill them all no matter what order they have been loaded in. Here is my code so far.... returns errors (but it still works) and will cause trouble as I get more .swf's loading. I would really like to keep track of the last loader loaded and be able to move forward and backward through the order and also kill them all at once?
sub
var Gstar1:Boolean = false;
var Gload1:Boolean = false;
var gs_ProLoader:ProLoader;
var gl_ProLoader:ProLoader;

I just started playing around with exporting some of my older Flash projects as android apps. I have one in particular that is a music player. It works great but the back button on my android device just backrounds the app. This is actually what i want since its a music player but would still like to be able to kill the app completely with a button on the stage. I dont know if anyone has seen the siriusXM app. When you hit the back button it asks if you want to exit the app (kill it) or just minimize. I sorta want to do the same thing but simpler by just having a kill app button the stage. I cant seem to find how to do this. I created a button called exit_app. Im assuming I need to make an event listener of some sort and create a function that runs when the button is pushed. I found this snippet that refers to the back button killing the app. Id like to modify it to perform the same action when I press my kill app button.
function handleKeys(event:KeyboardEvent):void{if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.BACK)
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit();

I have the following program to play a .flv movie on a webpage made by myself:
var Xpos:Number=0;
var Ypos:Number=0;
var swf:MovieClip;
[Code].....
When I publish the preview, it works well and I can unload it and kill its sound by clicking on the close button. When I publish the page on the website and load the movie through "loader_btn", it works well, and when I click the close button, the image disappears but the sound is continued.

I needed a way to invoke softkeyboard in android platforms, and i got to know how to do it form here Flash APIs for Android Platform. Now i need to kill the keyboard, basically there is a button which i want to use to toggle the keyboard. Flash has provided a way to invoke the keyboard but not to kill it.(never understood how they work). One more issue is that when i click the down button on softkeyboard which is located on bottom left of the screen, the Softkeyboard_Deactivate event is not fired. It seems its fired only when the focus shifts from one object to another.

I noticed that in the new version of flash (CS5) that if I accidently send my program into a infinite loop spewing out the same error over and over again just clicking the 'x' on the flash file doesn't end it any more. Is there a keyboard short-cut that kills the flash file so I don't have to restart flash every time it happens?

In Flash (AS3) I am creating a contact form in that I have taken one " Submit Button" , one " Reset Button", four input text fields "Name, Email, Subject, Message" with instance names " contact_name, contact_email, contact_subject, contact_message". I am confused about setFocus and killFocus.
In AS3, I have given
contact_name.text = "Name";
contact_email.text= "Email";
contact_subject.text = "Sub";
contact_message.text = "Message";
Now when I publish this file, bydefault the input text field shows with text "Name, Email, Sub, Message". Now my requirement is if I click on Name Field so the text "Name" should get disappear so that I can enter my name, after that I click on Email field the text "Email" should get disappear at the same time I don't want to lose my Name which is entered in Name Field. If I click in Subject text Field the text "Sub" should get disappear but not to lose the Name and Email data entered by me. If I click in Message text Field the text "Message" should get disappear but I don't want to lose the data which was entered in remaining text fields.

I've currently got a flash site written in AS3, into which i'm loading an AS2 SWF that plays audio.The AS2 SWF is loaded into a container movieclip at Frame 10, when a specific navigation button is pressed, the playhead advances to this frame, and calls the SWF. When the user navigates away from this frame, SoundMixer.stopAll(); is called to kill the audio from the loaded AS2 SWF.
This works fine inside of Flash however, when deployed to the browser, the audio playing in the loaded AS2 SWF carries on playing.I've tried loading a new blank SWF in it's place to kill the audio, as well as a blank SWF with stopAll(), all of these solutions work within the Flash IDE (CS4) however the audio always persists in the browser.
Code:
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
holderMC.addChild(swfLoader);
var bgURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ytPlayer.swf");
