ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Instances Of Child/children?

Nov 13, 2009

trying to remove instances of child/children. I have a function (btFnc) that creates a child (bT) and then the function is called several times to add instances to the stage - btFnc(264,3.6); btFnc(304,4.6); btFnc(344,5.6); btFnc(384,6.6); btFnc(424,7.6);Yet i cannot for the life of me remove all of the children, only 1.

Code:
public class screen18 extends MovieClip {
private var scrnXMLLoader:XMLLoader;//XML Loading class
private var screenTxt:Array;

[code]....

This then repeats for screens 2, 3 & 4.

ActionScript 3.0 :: DropTarget Parent Child - Removechild Won't Remove A Child

Aug 21, 2010

I have an issue where removechild won't infact remove a child. I think its something to do with my dropTarget.parent issues. The concept of the code is that you drag a source onto a destination. When you drop the source onto the destination you will get a text field that says "Hello" or "Goodbye". The objective i want to achive is that once i drop a source onto the destination, removechild will remove any previouse textfields added. This is proving difficult.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Remove The Children

Mar 12, 2010

adding all the bricks of another movie clip into an array in my controlling mc (GameScreen). Except, when I try to remove them from the display list by accessing them from their array, I get

Quote:

ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller at flash.display:isplayObjectContainer/removeChild()...and so on

I'm guessing it's something to do with adding another movie clip's children into an array in a movieclip that isn't the stored clips' direct parent, but it's parent's parent.

Code:
private function checkBrickHit():void{
for(var i:int=0;i<brickArray.length;i++){

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove All Children From Container

Oct 2, 2008

Well 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 :: Remove Filter From Children?

May 18, 2011

I have a menu that is a type of wave, thus I'm using Flash, not HTML. My issue is that I have a bevel on that wave, but that bevel extends onto the text that is a child of the MC that has the bevel. Is there any way that I can remove the bevel from the text (Or technically shapes since they were imported from IL) without removing it from the entire element?

And yes, I've tried this.filters=[];

Also, I can't keep everything one shape in the MC, because I have hover attributes.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting MC Child To Effect All Other Children

Nov 10, 2010

Building a menu with drop downs. Each menu item is a child of a movie clip and has an "open" state and a "closed" state. When the user clicks on a menu item it "opens" and drop down menu slides out. If they click it again it "closes" and the drop down menu slides away. What I am trying to do is make any "open" menu items "close" when any of the other menu items are clicked. Here is a generalization of my code at the moment:

ActionScript 3 :: Remove All Children Function In Flash

Feb 22, 2011

Isn't there a simple "remove all children" function in flash? I don't understand why this code isn't working. I add children via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChildAt(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i],i);
loadCount++
}

And then remove them via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChildAt(i);
}

But I get an error that the supplied index is out of bounds, and yet one clip is still left on stage. Likewise, if I try to add them without levels, like this:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
loadCount++
}

And remove:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
}
I get the same error.

I was thinking of using a recursive loop along the lines "if you have children, check if they have children, if they do, check if THEY have children and so on until they have no children and if so removeChildAt(0) of the parent you last checked.

ActionScript Code:

A quick second question, we all know that event listeners should be removed when no longer needed but I was wondering about the event.COMPLETE listener for loading say XML or a video file or any loader object. Is there any point removing that listener of is it in effect dead anyway because it has triggered when "COMPLETE" and won't ever trigger again? Isn't it still "listening"?
