ActionScript 3.0 :: RemoveChild Only If It's In Display List?
How do I removeChild only if it's in the Display List?One button on my stage will addChild(radioButton) and another removes it. If the remove button is clicked first, then it obviously tries to remove something that has not yet been added and an error is returned. I've tried using the DisplayObjectContainer class with the contains() method to no avail.

Flash - Sorting Display Objects By Their Display List Depth
I have a list containing display objects from throughout the application (insertion order). I want to process the list either top-down (parent, child) or bottom up (child, parent). The only requirement is that either a parent is processed before any child or vice versa a child before its parent. What is a good approach? This question is not about sorting a list. It's about retrieving the depth of a particular display object. Example Display list: A (root) B1 C1 C2 D1 B2 ...... My list: list = [E1, F4, A, B2, B1, C3, ..., N9, N8] Bottom-up: N9, N8, F4, E1, C3, B2, B1, A Top-down: A, B2, B1, C3, E1, F4, N9, N8 Does not matter if N9 before N8 or N8 before N9. Important is that any N is before M (first run) or any M before its children N* (second run).

ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild / RemoveChild - Make A Mouesover And Mouseout That Will Display A Help / Key Box On The Screen
I'm trying to make a basic mouesover and mouseout that will display a help/key box on the screen. I created the help box that will be displayed as a symbol called helpbox. I updated the linkage to export to Actionscript and called the class Helpme. The object I'm using to instantiate the Helpme class is a small graphic called helpcoast. I want the "helpbox" in the new class "Helpme" to be displayed only when the mouse is over the helpcoast graphic. When I test the movie and mouse over and mouse out of the graphic once, I get no errors, but if I mouse over it, then off it, then back over again, I get this error in the output box: [Code]...

Actionscript 3 :: Error #1006 RemoveChild Is Not A Function. Timer Delay RemoveChild
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. stop(); import com.greensock.*; import com.greensock.easing.*; import com.greensock.plugins.*; [code]....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Nothing Is Being Added To The Display List?
I've got MovieClips on the stage, both manually added, and added with code. I used this code to trace them all: for(var i:int=0 ; i<stage.numChildren; i++) { var myObject = stage.getChildAt(i); trace(i); trace(myObject); } All it returns is 0 and [object MainTimeline]. Is there something wrong with Flash, or did I do my coding wrong? The objects I put on the stage should be on the Display List, right?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Add To Display List From A Class
in my Main.as file, this works as expected: var t:TextField = new TextField(); t.text = "hello in main"; addChild(t); However, when I create an instance of a class, and I have that same code in the constructor of that class, the text doesn't show up. I am creating the text field variable at the class level, not the contstructor level, so I think the variable should still hang around. Do I have to get an instance of the stage, or something?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Display Graphics In A List?
The documentation for the List component at[URL].. states "A list can also display graphics, including other components," but nowhere can I find an example of HOW to make this happen. Can anyone please point me to a working example, I really need to be able to leverage this functionality, but I cannot for the life of me find anywhere it's being done.

Actionscript 3 :: What Is Display List In Flash 10
I'm working on a game that has many elements on stage, so I'm looking to optimize my loops. I know that Vector is faster than looping an array, but I'm also in some cases using:[code]My question is when I use getChildAt, is that accessing an Array or Vector or linked list or other? Should I instead store references to my objects in a Vector and loop through that instead?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting A Tooltip To The Top Of The Display List?
Ok so my document class loads pictures and adds them every so interval once they're done loading. So when the next picture loads, it will be higher on the display list than the picture previous to it(on the left). So if a child(a tooltip) of the previous picture(on the left) appears over the picture to the right, the tooltip will always appear underneath that following picture, since the tooltip is a child of the previous picture.how do i get it to appear above everything? (addChildAt won't work) . i need a quick fix, is there a way to get my document class to add that tooltip ?
