ActionScript 3.0 :: Space Between Children?
Aug 23, 2010
I've created an interactive in which the user "draws" on a "board" and as they drag their mouse children (a mc in the library with linkage) are added to the screen where they drew. The result is a fluid line of mcs. The problem is when each new mc is added it overlaps the previous children that were added before. I want to simply have it add the children and not have them overlap each other. That is, I'm looking to add some space between the children.
Code:
stop();
var spBoardBlood:Sprite=new Sprite();
this.addChild(spBoardBlood);
spBoardBlood.x=0;

I have a Sprite called pageContent. Inside pageContent are 12 more Sprites with unique names, a couple of Buttons, and some TextFields. Inside each of the 12 Sprites I have either one or two TextFields and one TextInput. My question is, since they are children inside a child of pageContent, how can I access them? Here is how I am trying to do it:
[Code]...
In my mind, this should totally work. But surprise, surprise, it doesn't. I have debugged it and it works fine for the first two lines, but when it tries to get numChildren of a Child of pageContent (line 3), I get this error: PHP Code: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property numChildren through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.

Newbie to XML here and I have what I *hope* is an easy problem, but I just don't know the answer. And as I have to try and show this by Monday, I'm sort of stuck. I am trying to pull in information about houses via an xml file. Each house has 1 address, 1 owner, 1 description, and about 6 photos. I have no problem accessing the address, owner, etc, and I can always access the first photo, but whenever I cycle through the photos, I seem to cycle through the first photo for every house, not every photo for each house.
Basically, I need the children <images> to go up by one, without the the parent going up by 1. I am hoping I am describing this well. My code looks like this:

I have a Canvas which has many components inside it and those again, have many components inside them.
getChildren() returns only the top level children. What is the best way to retrieve all the children (children of children of children and so on).
Well, I sorta know how to do this by iterating through the children, but the code is really messy. I'd prefer to use a nice recursive function. Has anyone written this before? Or is there a Util class to do this?

for some reason STORAGE[0].getChildAt(0) works whereas liner.getChildAt(0).getChildAt(0) does not. STORAGE is a movieclip and a child of liner. the error is something about not being able to use getChildAt on a display object. what's wrong? is there any other approach i could use? PS: liner.getChildAt(0) works and does indeed seem to refer to STORAGE[0]

I am making a space invader game as a uni project. Please seee attched file.I am getting an error:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at MethodInfo-19()It only happens sometimes when an invader is removed in the moveBullet method I think but basically the game behaves incorrectly and sometimes goes to the You Win frame even if the user has lost or just lost a life.

I'm using Flash CS4 and AS3 and trying to get this cube to look as though it's actually in 3D space. [URL]. I know that because it's really two dimensional I'm dealing with the panels being on set layers and I need them to dynamically figure out what panel should be brought to the front. I don't really even know how to tackle this... Is there code I can use to get it to constantly check what should be on top? How would it even test this?

I'm trying to get used to the new way of doing things in CS4. Once I've created a MC and rotated it in 3D, how can I move it across the screen w/o rotating it further? I have a MC that rotates over several frames, and once it reaches the last one, I want it to stop rotating, then begin to slide in an X direction (while reducing the alpha). But no matter which tool I use or what I do on the timeline, the object is stuck in place and will only rotate and not move. Even the 2D X and Y settings in the properties panel are grayed out.

I have a web design for a client that was pretty much complete. They decided that they wanted to replace one of the graphics with a flash animation. When I added the swf file to the layout in Dreamweaver it apparently is adding some space around the swf which breaks the rest of the design. It looks to be about 4 pixels or so of space that is getting added. I experimented with padding, margins, borders on every element in the design. I tried changing the Scale parameter of the swf to "no border" and "exact fit". I tried enclosing the elements in a table. To simplify things I created a new blank page in Dreamweaver and added the two elements that are giving me grief. The original width of the design was 792.
On the top I had 2 graphics, the first was 212 wide and the second was 580 wide. The first graphic is the one that got replaced with the swf file. The swf is also 212 wide. But for some reason there is that extra space on the right side of the swf that forces the second graphic to the next line. You can see the example here: [URL]. This shows what happens when the original graphic was replaced with the swf. (The swf doesn't do anything as I actually replaced the client's swf with one I made that has the original graphic as the only item in the movie). If you look here: [URL]. I changed the width of the second graphic to 574 wide. That kept the graphic on the same line, but you can clearly see that the swf has the unwanted space to the right.

I am trying to delete some copy but when I do it, it leaves a huge black space (previewed in Firefox and Safari on Mac) which is the space left when I deleted the script and I don't know how to close up the black space (like I would do in indesign or Word). I am doing something wrong but I don't know how to fix this simple thing.

Problem embedding CS4 Flash Movie - Player 10. I am embedding a Flash Movie into an HTML doc. The doc was created in DW CS4 and has a table with 3 columns and 5 rows. Each cell will have content. I put a flash movie in the center cell, three rows down from top. Everything looks great in Safari. However, in IE, FF, and IE Chrome, there is space along the top and bottom of the movie -- have not tried the AOL browser. About 10 px each. I've tried everything to fix it. I published the HTML in Flash and tried integrating the generated HTML with my table -- same problem. Maybe publish settings could be tweaked.
I've tried 0 margins in CSS header tag, and HTML too. I thought I had this problem about a year ago with a different site ... been that long ... and resolved it.

I'm using swfaddress which creates a page title in the browser based on what page your on in the flash site. The title comes from the name of a frame label. For example i have a frame label called "About Us" I've capitalised it and put a space between the words because this text is what's used in the page title on the browser and i want it to look good and to be able to be read properly.When the page is refreshed it comes up as: "about%20us" as the page title on the browser.The %20 is replacing the space in the word.Is it possible to replace the %20 with a space?
