Actionscript 3.0 :: Delete A Variable In Flash
Apr 5, 2009
how do you delete a variable in flash. Lets say you create a square for animation using ActionScript 3.0 and then I play the animation. The animation ends and I want to delete that square I don't need it anymore and I want to free up some memory, I don't talking here about removeChild that will remove it just from the display list i want that variable completely delete and the memory that shw was using restore. In others oop languages like c# you have the delete operator.

apparently, when a button is controlled by a function like so:
Code:
button.onRelease = function() {
pages = button;
trans.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
that variable "pages" is given a "_level0." before the variable info. How can I eliminate that from happening? Is there a way to delete the first 8 charaters of a variable when assigning it?
the problem with this is if I want to call a loadMovie like so:
Code:
loadMovie(_root.pages+".swf", "_root.target");
pages turns up as "_level0.button.swf"

If you have a variable that is a MovieClip, Sprite, String, Number, int, uint, or a Boolean, do you remove it's reference by adding:
myVariable = null;
OR delete(myVariable);

I am implementing a flex auto-suggest combobox - as the user types in each character: Consider the string 'Stackoverflow' and user input = 'st'
1) the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 'st'
2) text is set to auto-suggest string such that the un-typed part is highlighted.
So for instance, the combobox text may contain st'ackoverflow', where 'ackoverflow' is highlighted using setSelectedIndex()When I hit back-space or delete, and check the 'this.text' value, I expect that the last un-highlighted character ('t' in the above case) gets deleted and the data provider is filtered to show all items starting with 's'. However the text property contains 'st', as before

I'm trying to use the delete keyword to remove nodes from an xml file and it just plain won't work.Here's a stripped down example of what I'm working with. Every node has a child named "deleteme". If its value is equal to 1 I want to remove it from the xml file. If its anything else I want to leave it be. The delete method is deffinately gettig call but it's having no effect.

[code]...
This code just generates a new ham_mc where the user releases the original (drag and drop). The original returns to its starting point. I have the same code for a movieclip called cheese_mc, the user can drag and drop cheese too.
So, if more than one of these ham_mc's and cheese_mc's are created, what is the best way to delete the last one created?

I'm using FDT 3 and Ant to make a jsfl file that is then executed to compile fla's and I'm trying to figure out how to get the jsfl to remove the aso files. I've tried storing the path to the aso files in a property in Ant the is then added to the jsfl when its created and it works to remove the aso file but it means that everyone must edit that property to fit their machine, we are using Macs and Windows.
My question is, is there a way to have jsfl find and delete the aso files?

Adobe is, in my opinion, intentionally deceptive on a number of levels about the privacy-invading cookies that Flash stores on your machine. These are NOT the cookies that get deleted when you clear your browser cache. These cookies remain on your machine until you MANUALLY DELETE THEM. And Adobe know that most users are not technically proficient enough to even find where they exist.There is a good site that describes how to get rid of them here: [URL]

I'm trying to find a javascript method to delete flash cookies on a page, but with no luck.I know it can be obviously done through flash or flex, but the problem is I know nothing about flash, flex and actionscripts...So my question is: Is there a way to just load a prebuilt flash movie in a page, which just programmatically deletes all the flash cookies it finds?I could find some actionscript code around the internet and didn't look complex, but I don't know how to use it

Basically, since XMLList are similar to Arrays in many ways, I was wondering if I could do something like:
XMLList.length = 10;
I know this is not possible because 'length' in XMLList is not a property but is a method. Hence is something like a get method without a set method. Only XMLList.length() would work.

I'm running a selenium script that tests an authenticated application.
The application uses a flash cookie to know if a user is authenticated to the site. Mid-script I need to delete the flash cookie.
I've tried to script the flash player settings page [URL] with no luck.
We use PHPUnit/Selenium if that helps.

Here's what i'm trying to do: I have a slideshow of pictures with a simple fading transition. I do not have the source file and i'd like to extract all of the single pictures from the slideshow. I've imported the video into flash so that all of the images from the video are keyframes.
So now, I have a movie with about 10,000 keyframes. I have a known interval of keyframes that I do not want (when the picture is on a frame by itself and it's not transitioning with another picture).
Can I:
Delete an interval of keyframes Create a new movieclip/document/scene... with the keyframes that I want

I'd like to completely erase an onPress = function() statement.delete movieclip.onPress... and it works because no actions happens when I press that movieclip. But the problem is there's still an on press statement but empty, and I can't make any onpress on the inside movieclips.BTW I still see the hand after using delete mc.onPress even if there are no actions assigned to that event.

when I do linkage on a symbol and export it for AS3. Then I edit the symbol, for instance go in and modify anything inside, a shape, etc... the next time I try to publish flash, i get an error multiple constructor definitions found. constructor may not be defined in <Script/> code.I think may be it's because flash does not remember to delete the previous export and creates another one. The only way to resolve this, is to delete the entire symbol and re-create it.

In my project are pages of text with each word having a button that when pressed will display a movieclip presentation about that word (its pronounciation and spelling etc..). In the project I am working on now I have over 450 unique presentations of words to deal with. I don't want to have all of these hundreds of movie clips on the stage and tell them one at a time to stop and rewind and then have one play each time a word button is pressed. That seems to be very inefficient to me.
add movieclips to the stage using addChild(movieclipname) and remove them using removeChild(movieclipname) but there is a problem. I have hundreds of unique movieclips and I don't want to have to manage hundreds of variables containing the indivudual movieclip instancess. It is a real pain having to figure out what instance is still on the stage before i delete it.In Adobe Director all I have to do is this:
