View 2 RepliesFlex :: Moving Children Of A Container (defined In MXML) Inside An "inner Container"
Jan 27, 2010I'm currently working on a custom component which extends Canvas (let's call it SuperCanvas) ; it's basically a container that let you zoom & pan its contents. It would be too long to explain why, but I can't use scrollRect, so I was forced to declare a Canvas object (called innerCanvas)... inside my SuperCanvas (I know, not very nice =/) I would like to know if there's a proper way to "redirect" the creation of my component's children in this canvas.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove All Children From Container
Oct 2, 2008Well I'm starting to really enjoy AS3, my next question then is this: In AS2 I'd often remove all movieclips with something like this:
PHP Code:
for(var i: String in container) {
container[i].removeMovieClip();
}
Is there something similar in AS3 that I can do without resorting to maintaining an array of references to each child of my container?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing Multiple Children From Container Mc?
Oct 5, 2009I am having trouble determining where to add my removeChild() statement to clear multiple movieClips from a container mc. I know I need to determine if the container movieclip contains anything. I don't know how or what I should put and where to put it. If I can determine if my container mc has movies in it, I am assuming I can just declare it again (i.e
PHP Code:
panel= new MovieClip();
)to clear it. Am I correct?

Get Total Height Of A Container's Children In Flex?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Limiting A Container To A Certain Number Of Children?
Feb 9, 2009At one point in my script I'd like to check a MC for the number of children and limit this number to 3. For that I use this script:
Code:
if (container.numChildren > 3){
for (i = container.numChildren; i > 3; i--){
container.removeChild(container.getChildAt(i-1));
popError('Horizontal nur 3 Elemente!');
}
}
This somehow works fine if there are 4 or 5 children in the MovieClip, but as soon as there are 6 or more, it throws an Argument Error #2025 and does not remove anything. BTW it does not make difference if I use container.removeChildAt(i-1);

Flex :: Listen For Dispatched Events From Container Children?
Oct 5, 2010I'm using an accordion container that has it's creation policy set to auto. One of the accordion's children is a spark border container that has a data grid within it. Currently, I'm using the data grid's creationComplete property to call a function; similarly, I'm using the dragComplete property to call another function.
How can I add listeners for events (creationComplete & dragComplete) via actionscript? The obvious problem is that the accordion does not create all its children on creation (nor do I want it to), so I can't simply use something like: datagrid.addEventListener(...)
Flex - Container's Clipped Children Not Visible On Scrolling?
Mar 30, 2011I have a VBox inside a Canvas. The 'red bars' are custom components based on 'Canvas'. All red bars are of equal height. I have 20 red bars inside the VBox. The scrollbars visible in the screenshot are the Canvas's scrollbars. The scrollbars of the VBox are disabled using verticalScrollPolicy = off.
Without scrolling, only 16 red bars (and a part of the 17th bar) are visible. However, when I scroll down the Canvas I expect to see the remaining red bars - but the bars that are not visible when the application starts don't get 'drawn'. What am I doing wrong? I want the user to be able to see the 17th - 20th bars when the Canvas is scrolled down.

Flex :: Show Scroll Bars On A Container When Children Are Off The Top/left?
Mar 18, 2010If I've got a Container with a child component that is off either the top or the left hand side:

Flex :: VGroup - (Parent) Container Does Not Change Height With Children?
May 13, 2011I have code like the following:
<s:VGroup gap="10" id="group" height="100%">
<s:Label text="This is page 2" />
<s:Button content="Resize Canvas" click="resize(event);"/>
<mx:Canvas id="photoCanvas" color="#567898" backgroundColor="#125567">
</mx:Canvas>
</s:VGroup>
I don't understand why the following does not work:
Pushing the Button resizes the photoCanvas's height (gets taller or smaller). Since the photoCanvas control is a child element of the VGroup shouldn't the container update itself to the new height? The Vgroup has ALWAYS the same height, no matter what the (total) height of the children is! I would like the VGroup to adjust itself and get a height value equal to the sum of its children heights. Is this not possible??
Flex :: Elements - Loop Over Children Of A Container When They Are State-dependent?
Aug 17, 2011Flex's new States re-parents visual items that are marked with includeIn/excludeFrom. If I have a Group (MainGroup) with 5 children/elements that are state controlled, is there still a way to get a reference to MainGroup's children? mainGroup.numChildren and mainGroup.numElements don't work since the children are re-parented. At best, they show 1.

Flex :: Adding Children Declared In Mxml To A Lower Level Container?
