ActionScript 3.0 :: Swap Two MovieClips?
Dec 14, 2009
i am trying to implement an image gallery in as3. I have already did the same with as2. I am trying to migrate to as3 version. I have two movieclip holders name "holder0" and "holder1" on the stage.These two moviclips are created statically on the stage to hold images.Now i want to swap the two movieclips.

I have this script I am writing where when someone hovers over a button it displays a popup box until they roll off. I have that function working alright, but I need the movie clips to swap depths, I realize I can do this with setChildIndex but I'm running into a small problem with my children/parent situation.
My items are added as such:
root > color_mc (blue or red or whatever) > button (this is the hover)
I have the event listener added to the button for each color, but I need it so that when the button is rolled over, it takes the color_mc and moves it to the -1 spot. I've tried writing the code a number of ways but can't seem to get it.
Code:
function manageMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
var parentClip = event.target.parent.name;
parentClip.setChildIndex(parentClip, parentClip.numChildren - 1);
event.target.parent.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
That code gives me the following error:
Error #1069: Property numChildren not found on String and there is no default value.

im having some trouble when trying to implement the swap depth function to movieclips that have the setmask function implimented to them. the problem is that i can get the swapdepth to work but when the setmask is implimented at the same time the movie clips will not swap depths.
the code that i am using to set the mask is _root.bgmasked.setMask(_root.dragger); this is on frame one in the action/code layer bgmasked is the imaged being masked by dragger.

I have two main clips with clickable clicks within each. I am using swapDepths on the two main clips in a tab navagation fashion. The problem is that if I click on the space between the nested clips in the top clip it actually is hitting the buttons(movieclips) on the other clip under it. Any suggestions?

Extremely simple timeline. Simply want to fade one image to another.Created a keyframeadded a bitmap, converted it to a symbol, set the alpha of 1st frame to 100%, 2nd frame to 0% & tweened.Image fades to white -perfect.Create a new keyframe, set the alpha to 100%, try to swap the symbol to another bitmap I'd converted to a symbol.Doesn't work.Inspector always says "instance of symbol 1". Cannot use any other symbols except for this one?

I have a timeline animation that contains a movieclip of a yellow bouncing ball. I want to change the instance of the yellow ball to a yellow top hat and have the TopHat bounce up and down instead of the ball. Sort of like the Swap button in the Flash editor, but at runtime.The ball mc is called yball, and inside that is the mc I want to replace, called yellowBall. I also created an mc called TopHat and exported it for AS. Then I tried a few variations on something like this:
trace(yball.yellowBall); // Says the object is a MovieClip
var newHat:TopHat = new TopHat();
yball.yellowBall = newHat;
trace(yball.yellowBall); // Says the object is a TopHat
yball.addChild(newHat);
Before you ask, no, this isn't the actual project, but I need the same swapping behaviour.

I have a gallery featuring black & white images. I want the black & white image to change to a color version if the user rolls over the image. I've currently got the bw images to load into my flash with AS2 & XML. How do I get the image to change on rollover using XML?I figured out how to have the image if clicked go to a URL but am stuck on how to swap images instead. Can I have two images called out in the XML?
ACTIONSCRIPT
Code:
Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
/////////////////
// Loading XML //
/////////////////
myXML = new XML();

URL...I've written everything to detect when colors and teeth are selected, but I cannot figure out how to swap one movieclip for another. Right now I'm not using an actual image, just colored squares. I've set up a movieclip variable that is named each color. Basically I'd like to click a color on the bottom, then each time I click a tooth have it swap whatever movieclip is already there for the one of the color I selected.[code]

I'm planning navigation for my new site (see screen grab of proposed navigation corner). I want the words to swap levels and appear in front of others on roll over.
OK, just found this tutorial [URL] but I put the buttons into the MCs.
*BUT* - I want them to return to their original positions on RollOut - is this possible. I tried duplicating the code but substituting rollover to rollout and set the parameter to 0 or 1 or 2 to make them go back to a level I want them at.

I have 4 tab movieClips (Suppose 1_mc,2_mc, 3_mc, 4_mc).Not 1_mc is on top and covering some part of 2_mc, same as 2_mc is covering some part of 3_mc, and 3_mc is covering some part of 4_mc.Now whenever i clicked any tab Movieclip. it should come on top of all MovieClips.
in AS2 there was a method swapDepths(This.getNextHighestDepth()) and by that we can swap current movieclip by all other MovieClips.So is there any code in AS3 also, which can swap child at once with all the Movieclips? I checked from setChildIndex and swapChildren too but its taking more length of code and complexity too, to understand which movieclips has to be swaped now?

ts an interactive gallery where when a photo is selected it plays the movie clip and the photo grows to fill the screne. The problem is, since the animations take part within the movie clips and all the movie clips exist on the same layer when they are selected and grow to fill the screne they are being hidden behind all the movieclips infront of it in that layer I know that there is an action to bring movieclips to the highestdepth or to front on click/release but i do not have a clue where to start

This should be really easy to do, but i cant find anything from searching. It's all tuturials for buttons and stuff. All i want to do, is put a MC called "face" on top of everything. What exactly would be the AS3 for this, and where would i put it?

I'm using this code to swap different charts rendered in XML, but all that is happening is that they are piling on top of each other! How do I unload each one while another is loaded?Notes on the code: I have 52 different XML sheets to swap, all labeled Finance/"State Name".
Code:
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, financeSelect,true)
function financeSelect(evt:MouseEvent)
{
[code]...
Overall, I'm not sure what you mean about putting in the charts by script.

I've followed a few tutorials on Swapping depths, but they all refer to swapping the depth by using behaviors such as onRelease etc.
I would like to swap a MovieClip with another, but i want to do it at a given point on a timeline as opposed to doing it through a behavior so the swap isn't immediate.
I tried using the following on a keyframe this.swapDepths(second_mc); but nothing happened, the movieclip just runs through
I've uploaded my test file here:

As you can see each movie clip runs when you click it, but i also want it to swapDepth (so the second movieclip is now on top to be clicked).

*I can't post the file due to the company policy, so I'll do my best to explain. 3 movie clips: slide 1, 2, and 3. Each loads an external image.
Layers (how I have them set up):
slide 1
slide 2
slide 3
The slides have a 3d feel, as if they are in the distance. When the user clicks one, the slide(mc) motion-tweens towards the screen, while the other 2 stay back. Obviously, if slide 2 comes towards the screen then slide 1 will be over top of it DUE TO layer structure (above). And of course, 1 & 2 will be over slide 3. To get around this I made a "current" layer over top of all the slide layers. So if I click on slide 2/3 then the tween is up on the "current" layer instead of the "slide 2/3" layer so that it's the highest.
