On 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.
View 2 Repliesim trying to remove these movie clips from the stage but its not working. Im spawning the movie clip to the stage every time i slide the timeline_slider, which is instance name for a slider component.
I manage to put the spawned movie clip in a array using push, but i don't know how to delete them. Because what i want to happen is that every time i slide the slider i only want a certain amount of movie clips on the stage, but what is happening is they spawn on the stage and stay there.
for example. if i slide 1 across it spawns 5 mc if i slide again to the second increment it spawn 4 so total number on movie clips on the stage is 9.
i want to only spawn the number of movie clips that increment on the slider is set to. i would also like it to work backwards as well, so if im on the second increment it should have 4 movie clips on the stage, and if i go back to the first increment i should only have 5 movie clips on the stage. this is my code for spawning with the slider
this is my arrays of the numbers are now many movie clips i want to spawn to the stage.
Code:
var rdCounts:Array = [5516 / 1000,5517 / 1000,5570 / 1000,5585 / 1000,5596 / 1000,5656 / 1000,5804 / 1000,5965 / 1000,8692 / 1000,15194 / 1000,16475 / 1000];
var NewAuspop:Array= new Array();

View 16 RepliesI am getting a little fustrated with trying to remove a MovieClip from my stage after I am done with it. On loading my frame, I have a little bit of code in a function that creates a piechart.
var piechart:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
stage.addChild(piechart);
//Then a bunch more to draw the pie chart
So that bit of code is NOT on my "Actions" layer. Now I have a button on this frame that navigates to a different frame in the timeline but when I change frames, the piechart remaines. So, how do I remove this piechart from the stage after I am done with it? I have tries stage.removeChild(...) and others but perhapse I am calling it wrong?
I created movie clips that I want to add to the stage (from the library) by the use of buttons. I have a total of six buttons (and six moviclips) but I am trying to get the first two to work before I move on to the next buttons. The problem is I can't seem to remove the movie clip when another button is clicked, or the same button... Like I said I am new at this and I think a created a mess of things... I am getting error 2007 now
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;

View 5 RepliesIt may sound stupid, but how can I remove a definite child from the stage?[code]...
View 5 Repliesis it possible for a movieclip to say that it wants to remove itself from the stage?i am dynamically adding a bullet (movieclip) to the stage for this "tank-type" game im making.. since it's a bullet, it obviously moves.... so, if the bullet's X position is beyond 550, i would like flash to remove it so that it doesn't take up memory...here is the class of the movieclip:
ActionScript Code:
package
{
[code]............
The normal procedure will be to call the parent to remove the child.
ActionScript Code:
stage.removeChild(temporary_movieclip);
or just
[Code].....
I am highly aware that this is a BAD practice in all logical sense, because the parent SHOULD be in charge of removing its childs because then it can set them to nil and remove all Event Listeners for the garbage collector.
Why iPhone ObjC allows that is beyond me.
Is there a way to get a movieclip to remove itself ?
I am trying to remove a swf that I import to the stage, but it is not working.
Code:
function btn_cima_3call(clickEvent:MouseEvent):void{
page = 5;
esconder();
content.gotoAndStop(page);
ld.load(new URLRequest("trabalhosV0.swf"));
ld.x = 0;
ld.y = 100;
addChild(ld);
}
So when 1 button is pressed this swf is imported to the stage. but im now trying to remove this when another button is pressed and it isnt working?
Code:
function btn1call(clickEvent:MouseEvent):void{
removeChild(ld);
page = 1;
content.gotoAndStop(page);}

I have some problems removing javascript iFrame from my flash file.I have one index.html (where iFrame is generated) and one index.swf file.In my index.swf file, I have 14 buttons (14 different frame labels). On 4 of those buttons I have a function calling my javascript iframe from index.html file. But, when I go on a frame that don't have that function for calling javascript, that previously called and displayed iframe is still visible.Another problem I have is that on some of those 14 'pages' I have around 10 more buttons on center of stage - that are not clickable because of that javascript iframe.

I have a parent swf that loads in 6 little swfs. However, I have a button which should remove the loaders from the stage, no matter which one it is from the 6. At the moment I can only remove one of them because of the way I have coded the application. So, when I click on the button which is supposed to remove whatever loader is currently sitting on top of my parent movie, it only removes one of the loaders - the one which is named first under my resetAssets function.
I can not have:
removeChild(ldr);
removeChild(ldr2);
removeChild(ldr3);
etc.
Because only one of them is being displayed at the time and flash goes like "hey dude! where are the others you want me to remove then!?" I suppose the whole code has been built up poorly and I should loop the swfs through one loader instead of having a loader for each swf.. Then I could just remove the loader no matter what sits in there..?
Code:
//imports
import flash.filters.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("load_XML.swf");

I am using a carousel (from Lee Brimelowe's tutorial) as the main method of navigation from my site's homepage. There are six icons in the carousel, clicking any one brings the icon to the front and some dynamic text and a button to navigate to a different page appear on stage. Clicking the icon again brings the icon back to the carousel and the text and button disappear.The site is multi-lingual (English, German, Dutch, Polish) and all text changes to the relevant language by clicking a flag button, including the text that appears beside the 'expanded' carousel icon - all of the data is loaded from XML files.
The problem with changing the language is that the entire carousel needs to be destroyed and rebuilt each time, as all of the data needed for it is only loaded on runtime. I have this 'kinda' working, the problem I am having is:If you change the language via a flag button when an icon is 'expanded' the dynamic text and button (theText and urlBtn) get 'stuck' on the stage and you have to do some clicking on the new carousel icons remove them - not ideal!Can anybody out there please advise me on how I would include some AS to remove these items too when the language button is changed?
I have a Calendar class (extends Sprite) that when called constructs a calendar. It does so by adding several Day (extends Sprite) objects to itself. I tested this class with a driver class, CalendarTest - the Document Class, that adds a Calendar object to
its stage. It worked great. Then I added a "Next" button to build a new Calendar for the next month. It didn't work so great.
After clicking Next button, the first calendar remained on stage. removeChild did not remove the first Calendar object. So, I wrote destroy methods within the Calendar and Day classes that remove their various components and clear graphics.
The Next button now works great, for the next calendar object. But the next, next calendar object, same problem as the first problem before implementing destroy methods.
I even put trace statements before removeChild calls and set the child to null after removeChild calls. It traces such and such Day is removed, set to null, and finally Calendar is removed, set to null. And yet, the second Calendar with all its Day objects remains on stage!So, how do I remove the Calendar from stage and memory?
So, I have a file where I've added 27 movie clips to the stage using a for loop to cycle through items in an XML document. Here's the pertinent part of the code I'm using, it's AS3:
So, I end up with 27 instances of mini_mc, each named 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.

In actionscript 2 if you wanted items on the stage to not appear to the user you would just use the onclipevent(load) and then move them, alpha them and so on. In as 3 I cannot figure out how to get the items off of the stage before the stage renders them. There's always a flash of the stage items and then they disappear. What should I use? I don't like the addChild method because it's impossible to design a site that way. I like all my items on the stage and then go from there...
