ActionScript 3.0 :: Unable To Use Child Of The Caller With Send To Back Function?
Sep 30, 2010
I'm trying to build a class for objects in my prog that can by manipulated in various ways.. I want right clicking them to send them to back, and left clicking, bring them to the front.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[code]....
When I run it, however, I get ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.So something's not lining up, but I'm not sure how to write it so it'll work.

I have tried to grasp this concept, but cannot believe the cluster F that as3 has done with loading a swf and then removing it.Whereas in As2, you would simply loadMovie into a movieClip's instance name. If you wanted it gone, you could simply replace it with something new, or unloadMovie. Simple.Now...to even load a movie in...you have to create variables, create a movie clip, create a loader, then create a url request, then load that url request into the loader, then addchild so that the loader is on the stage? And to remove it, is next to impossible.So here is my code..
function loadMovie (){
var my_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var my_Loader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....
That code when tested gives me....Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. When I try to run the removeMovie function.

I keep getting this error:
The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
Is there a way to check it's parent, and remove using that parent?

I'm basically trying to refresh a jpg image every second from within my flash project. The code so far:
Code:
//This function is called from the loader's event listener.
//It moves the loaded image into the appropriate container for display
function imgLoaded(event:Event):void
[Code].....
And then it will load the picture, then it will throw the error, then load, then throw, etc...
What do I need to do to avoid this error?

I'm looking to send a list of variables (say 6 in total) from php to flash and for flash to pick a random one and send it back to php when clicking a button.
I would like it to appear in a dynamic text box. That randomly selected variable needs to be sent back to php on pressing a button.

This is the error I am getting....This is the situation I am using addChild and removeChild. I have two main movieclips that this is based around. workss_mc and work_mc. workss_mc is the slideshow, work_mc is the selection grid. When you click on an object in work_mc I am adding adding a child (workss_mc) and removing work_mc at the same time. That works fine; however, in workss_mc I have a back button, this back button is used to remove works_mc once it is removed it sends you back to work_mc. Once you are back on work_mc everything should work completely the same, however, it's like it's ignoring the code.Here is the code for the button:
Code:
urbanthmb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
function clickHandler(event:Event) {
var workss_mc = new mc_workss();[code].......

This code throws an error:
if (modalMessage != null && contains(modalMessage)) {
removeChild(modalMessage); // the error is here
modalMessage = null;
}
The Error is:
[Fault] exception, information=ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
How can this be? I am checking if it is a child beforehand.

I encapsulate my addChild so that I can have an array of all the objects that are on stage for later garbage collection. this is how I do so [code]each gameObject has a property called garbage that is a boolean that is set when ready to be removed. When I set it to tree, this is what happens.ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

I having problems setting the child index of a sprite... It works perfectly on the first run of the program, but fails on the second time around. For context this function is in a class which accepts an array of sprites and displays them. My problem is with setChildIndex(_selected as DisplayObject, numChildren-1);
private function enlarge(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (!_open) {
_selected = e.currentTarget;
_selectedOrigX = _selected.x;
_selectedOrigY = _selected.y;
_selectedID = _selected.id;

With this code I generate 20 bubbles. Made of a Library item. Then I let them scroll accross the stage at various speeds. When each bubble moves off the stage at the right I want to delete it. So I used removeChild, but then I get this The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller" error." What am I doing wrong?
ActionScript Code:
const NUMBER_OF_BUBBLES:uint = 15;
var stageWidth:Number = stage.stageWidth;

ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at working_loader_container3_fla::MainTimeline/frame4()
at flash.display::MovieClip/prevFrame()
I have been getting this error after a bunch of different ways of trying this. I am attempting to create a new instance of my movieclip which displays external images via xml. I want a new instance of the movieclip every other frame and need to be able to remove each instance on every other frame. It will work going forwards, with a remove child call but as soon as I go back a frame, the error pops up.

I'm receiving this as an output error, when trying to use a "close button" I created for a lightbox that tweens in after the user clicks all_1thumb:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at testportfolio_fla::All_mc_2/closePop().
The lightbox populates with the correct image but the close button doesn't. Here is the entire script:
import fl.transitions.Tween;import fl.transitions.easing.*;
//Portfolio SubnavArt_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goViewAll);
function goViewAll(event:MouseEvent){
(this.parent as MovieClip).gotoAndStop("Art")}

I have a swf file that is loaded via addChild on frame 11, once the animation of this swf file has finished playing, the main swf then goes back to frame 1. However, this is where this issue comes in. Even though I have removed the child once, it seems to keep on trying to remove it again and again, this goes in to a continuous loop.
