I have a public variable set within fx:Script tags in a parent component that I'd like to access directly from a child component. How can I do this? I don't want to pass the variable to the child component (I know how to do this and am currently using this approach). Following is a simplified version of the mxml:
Note: SimpleComp is an HBox with a couple of lists.
<mx:Accordion>
<comp:SimpleComp/>
</mx:Accordion>

I have the need to change a variable in a child Flash file.
The setup is a parent Flash file, that has called a child Flash, and placed it in a movieClip.
I can send a variable using Javascript to the parent Flash file, but not directly to the child Flash file. Is there a way that I can access the child Flash file directly with Javascript?
Or do I need to send the variable to the parent Flash file, and then have the parent send the variable to the child Flash file? Is there a sort of dot notation that I can use with Javascript to get to the child Flash file without first accessing the parent, when the child is added to the parent using the loadClip function in flash?
I have a container with text and a button and an image.
When i Mouse over the button i want to be able to tell the text inside the container to change its TextFormat to another.
How do i tell the text to do so, i though it would be something within the MouseEvent like,
event.target.parent (someway to access other child).setTextFormat()
is their a simple way to access another child from within the same parent?
I have to access a function in child swf from parent swf. This child swf gets loaded into a canvas object in parent.swf. Everything works fine but I'm unable to call any function that was in child.swf. My code is
Code:
var swf1:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();
swf1.source = "CHILD.swf";
can.addchild(swf1);
I read on google and then I tried this in parent.swf's code
Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("CHILD.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);
canvas.addchild(myloader);
Now this one throws up a runtime error TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Loader@5934b01 to mx.core.IUIComponent.
I also tried this
Code:
var myrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("CHILD.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
myloader.load(myrequest);
[Code]....
But in this case my swf does not show up at all and there are no runtime errors too!
How do I resolve this error and how do I then access the function in child.swf?
The external swf is located at:[url]....In the parent.swf, I put System.security.allowDomain(url....)When you click a button on the child.swf it's suppose to trace data from the parent.swf, but it returns undefined.What am I doing wrong? I MUST access data from the parent.swf
View 4 RepliesI got a Parent Sprite, let's name it SpriteP, which holds inside it two other Sprites. Sprite1 and Sprite2.[code]Sprite2 is a rectangle. When I rotate it, of course, the height of its parent, SpriteP, GROWS. But I would expect that height to go back to what it should be when I'm removing Sprite2!And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200.
View 10 Repliesi am slightly confused about the parent and child relationship. lets assume we have several different instances, what would be difference of adding them all as children of the stage and creating a parent-child hierarchy between them(other than the access path).

When Sprite2 is NOT rotated:
Code:
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 250.
SpriteP.removeChild(Sprite2)
trace(SpriteP.width + ' ' + SpriteP.height); //100 200. -> works, 200 is good.
When Sprite2 is rotated at 90:

And it does! If I remove Sprite2 while NOT being rotated, the height of the parent drops back to normal, 200. But if I rotate Sprite2, the Parent won't update its bounds.

I cant access to var in parent movie from class in child.I have two swf's: parent.swf and child.swf. In parent.swf in frame 6 is:
Code:
stop();
var TestVar:String = "hello!";[code]....
I was trying use parent, parent.parent, parent.parent.parent etc. and any result - null object error.
This is probably a fairly easy answer, but I can't figure it out. I have a dynamically added child, and I have a dynamic text box on the parent. I'm thinking that it should be possible for me to add to the text box from the child timeline, but I don't know how to target the text box.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to pass a variable from child to parent movieclips. I can pass it from parent to child but not the other way around. I have a main movie which loads a child movie:

Im trying to access some variables from the parent in a child mc.[code]nothing shows up in any of the dynamic text fields...
View 1 RepliesI have a simple BOOK script where I have 10 pages (for example purposes). Each page has a vocabulary word on it. Currently, I simply created a vocabulary MC separately for each page and it works fine. Problem is, that leaves me with 10 Vocabulary pages and I would rather have 1 that loads info based on a var on the main page.
WORKING SCRIPT
var loaderZ:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loaderZ.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
loaderZ.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loading);
[Code].....
I am getting the word "depressed" from page 1 (verified by trace) Unfortuntely this does not work.
If I change the last line of code to:
VocText.htmlText = loaderZ.data = word;
Then it outputs the word DEPRESSED to the text field VocText but does not return the value from the txt file.
Have two swf, A.swf and B.swf: B.swf is a child of A.swf.i want to access the variable of a.swf in b.swf.Is it Possible?
View 9 RepliesImagine the following setup. The main swf loads a child swf.In AS2 i would simply use _parent or _root to call the desired function. How can that be done in AS3?Can this still be done? Can I call a function on the main swf from the loaded one? How about the other way around, this time, from main to loaded swf?

I'm passing a number in my HTML through FlashVars to a swf, I load an external swf into that parent swf which needs the variable that I passed.
I can use the variable passed in the parent, but I just can't understand how to attain that value in the child swf.
I've been looking into dispatch event but it seems way overkill. Haven't seen any examples dealing with something so simple.
is there anyway to create and define a variable in a child from the parent? For example, if I add a child to the stage with code, and then want to be able to say
child.variable=0
to create a variable in the child and be able to edit and read the variable. I know the above code is way off but it's just to kinda get the point through.I have to define the variable this way.
i've got an inheritance chain of AS2 classes set up where i have an array in the 'child' class that i'd like to be able to access from the 'parent' class:
bottomClass.as -'parent'
topClass.as -'child'
my question/dilemma is: how can the parent access the properties of a child class...is this even possible, or am i just looking at it wrong?

I have XML that looks like this:
<question>
<type_elt>
<opt_out_flag />
</type_elt>
</question>
type_elt is not an element name; it might be <single>, <multiple> or something else, determined at runtime. How, given this, can I detect the presence of the opt_out_flag element?
I tried this (where xml refers to the question element):
if (xml.*.opt_out_flag) {
do_something();
}
but even in cases without opt_out_flag the above expression returns true. Obviously I'm missing something, but what is it?
I have one movieclip object with a custom class.
That class has a loop that creates / instantiates a number of copies of another movieclip from the library. This second movieclip has a textfield child in it. When I convert this textfield to a movieclip I can access the properties of it fine, but just as a dynamic textbox I can't access it.
This is the custom class of the second movieclip that gets instatiated a few times by the first custom class...
This custom class relates to a movieclip that has a child MC called recent_text (which I can access ok) and in that child is another child (a dynamic text field called "aDynamicTextBox", which I can't access)[code]...
I have an SWF file that loads another SWF file dynamically.
I've managed to make the parent SWF receive a variable from the php page that loads it, via javascript, it works well [code]...
I'm trying to take a variable from the parent movieclip and use it in the child movieclip inside of a dynamic text field.
The variable has a value that is taken from a php file.
I'm completely lost at the moment and know that my code is probably completely wrong.
here it is:
parent movieclip:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("../SC/FLA_cont-btn.php"));

i am trying to load the variables from parent(flash) to child(flash).Its working fine,.
