ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Preloader By RemoveChild
Aug 24, 2010
My code below loads my preloader dynamically before an image is loaded into the file and when it finishes I want to remove my preloader by the removeChild(); method. Whenever I try to add removeChild(); in my code my file either does not work or I get an error #2025 must be a child of the caller. Where would my code go for the removeChild to work and not have a conflict. I know I probably need some removeEventListeners as well at the bottom: My .fla file is attached it works but I just need to remove the preloader in my code after it loads my image.[code]

i am trying to remove this movie clip when i want to play another one, i can navigate to the other movie clips but the sound that is embedded in my .swf files will not turn off off, since i have sound in several .swf files when i play more than 1 .swf movie the sound from the files will overlap each other, i have tried removeChild to no avail/This is the code i am using inside my loader timeline:
var myLoader2:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(myLoader2);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/longsfinal.swf");
myLoader2.load(url);

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");

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:

If you dynamically create a parent movieclip, and dynamically add a color picker to each clip, and add an event listener for each color picker, does a removeChild on the parent movieClip remove event listeners belonging to any of it's children?

I'm not even sure if the title reflects what I want to do. Here's backstory. I have a movieclip with 5 'holder' movieclips in them. They are my containers for dynamically added movieclips. The parent containers has an instance name of pyramid, the holder instance names are labeled after the 6 food groups, i.e., 'grainholder', 'fruitholder', 'vegetableholder', etc etc...The holders are within the pyramid container, instance names as above, and the pyramid container is added to the display list. I have a addFoodToPyramid() function which adds 'foodMC' mc's to their respective holders. So an [object Apple] will be dynamically added by way of pyramid.fruitholder.addChild(Apple). The function also adds a listener. Heres the call and the function:The call (I will use grains as example) is this:
addFoodToPyramid(grainArray, grainHolder, grainCounter);
And the function is:
function addFoodToPyramid(thisArray:Array, thisHolder:MovieClip, thisCounter:Number):void

I'm currently working on a script which depending on various factors will add different movie clips to the stage. When the factors change so do the movie clips. I know that I can use removeChild(myMC); 100 times and wipe the stage, so I was thinking it would be possible to add all the movie clips to an array and use removeChild(myArray); to get rid of them but I'm coming up with the compiler error: Code: 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Array to an unrelated type flash.display:DisplayObject. so obviously I'm missing something. Is this even possible? is there a more effective way to remove Movie Clips from the stage?

I'd like to remove objects via removeChild after Tweenlite has finished tweening. But it doesn't really work because my objects are still in the DisplayList.
Code:
//TweenLite.to(sndText, .5, {alpha:0, onComplete:removeChild, onCompleteParams:[sndText]});//does not really work; still in DisplayList
TweenLite.to(sndText, .5, {alpha:0});
TweenLite.to(musicText, .5, {alpha:0});
TweenLite.to(sndSlider, .5, {alpha:0});

Will this line
clip.removeChild(clip.getChildAt(0));
completely remove the child of clip at 0 index? I read somewhere you should set to null to all the references to that clip, but I have no other reference in my code. The clip at 0 was added via a regular addChild().

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.

I'm trying to build a conditional statement that will addChild and removeChild at different Timer Delays. Before I go any further, I thought, I should mention that I'm usinig TweenMax to ease the alpha of ease Child from 1 to 0 and back during the process to imitate a fade-in/out.
I'm getting issue with only one line - inside a conditional statement.It's running "OK". The movie runs as I want it, but the remove/addChild transitions are not at the speed I want it at. I am getting an error message in the output, but other than that, the movie runs fine.

I am using the video component with AS3. I have an external flv which loads nicely...that's fine. Now I am looking for a way to remove a preloader animation once the video starts streaming. The preloader is just an animation without a status (percent) bar. In plain English the code would be: if flv file is streaming, fade preloader animation I am also noticing that the first frame of the video shows while it's loading...is there a way to change it so that nothing is seen until streaming? If worst comes to worst I can always make a mask.

I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.
