i have problem with swfLoader in flex, when i close following code in click method i can easly add many swf to main application
<mx:VBox id="content" width="100%" height="100%" ></mx:VBox>
public function doIT():void

when i close adding those swfs in loop i have the same error, it looks like child apps couldn't access certain objects that were instantiated by another child app, so what can i do?
I've seen some discussion on how to load a child swf using swfLoader and accessing it's variables but I am wondering if it is possible to do this without adding any code to the child swf.Either accessing public vars or listening for funciton calls would work fine
View 2 RepliesI have a mainSwf in which I load an external swf, which loads an external swf.( a child of a child). I am trying to set the framerate via AS3 for the childs child by using stage.frameRate= 15;
It doesnt work when the children are loaded into the mainSwf. how to access the stage of a child's child? I have tried root, Movieclip, this but can not get it to work
I'm doing an XML gallery kind of thing that I need to assign a title to each image.I created a Dictionary object "titleImageMap" to store the titles. Then placed them into each MC using the variable name colName.
Code:
function loadImages(collectionList:XML):void {
var imageList:XMLList=collectionList.collection.img;
var titleList:XMLList=collectionList.collection.coltitle;
[code]....
Tracing worked, so the colName variable is attached to each thumbContainer inside the container_mc.Now I try to retrieve the colName from a button, but stuck on how to access it...it keeps chucking a 1119 error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property colName through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.
I've been using Flash for years but only recently started doing anything with AS3. I am using SlideShowPro and SlideShowPro Thumbgrid which are both AS3 components, hence the move. I am finding the move incredibly frustrating.Anyway, on to my problem. My parent movie is loading a child SWF. The child SWF needs to read a variable from the parent but I can't work out how as the old syntax is not working.My loading AS looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
var loadit = new Loader();
addChild(loadit);

View 6 Repliesi've made a simple example here to show you my problem. I have basically created a stage object ("box"), with the nested children, box->b->c. I have exported box for as, with class "box" and base class movieclip. Now i create 4 instances of my box class and add an eventlistener to the nested child c. When i later on try to remove the eventlisterner for myinstance.b.c i get: TypeError: Error #1010: term is undefined and has no properties.at DocumentClass/removeSomething(). Here is my code:

What's the strategy for getting a child to access variables in a parent.I have a Main class.In that class I create instances of a Unit class and save those to an array.In the Unit class, I want to access the x and y coordinates of other instances of the Unit class.So I'd like to access that array I made in the Main class.I tried:this.parent.theArray[i].xbut that doesn't work. I tried using the get command, but I don't really know how to, so my efforts failed.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to access some variables from my parent in my child MC.
Parent code:
var data_history:String;
function finish_checkUp(event:Event):void{
var checkUp_stat:String;
[Code]....
Now as you can see, i have tried the trace method, but with no luck. Flash doesn't report any errors regarding the trace method, but does report the two undefined vars (data_history). Ive tried to use the trace method above all the functions, at the top of the script, still the same errors though.
I am not sure if I'm being completely stupid here, so my apologies in advance. If I have an object on the stage for example:
ball:Ball = new Ball();
addChild(ball);
it already has .x and .y values as it is placed on the stage.Then I have some value inputs, such as force, angle etc.Now when I click an event listener I want it to activate a function in Ball that will move it from the values I have just set.My question is how do I carry those values across after the ball has already been place on the stage?

Parent swf has a class loaded, lets call it 'GlobalUtilities'. Parent swf loads in child swf. Child swf wants to use some of the 'GlobalUtilities' class that is in the parent.
How can I accomplish this? The problem I'm having right now is, when I export the child swf, I'll just error out since it can't find the reference (obviously, since it's not loaded into the parent yet).
im working with my main FLA and a script for it child.as i have created a variable in the parent, "svar:Number = 0;" i would like the child to be able to modify this variable when certain triggers are met i've tried something like this in the "child.as" but im assuming its probably much more complicated

im wondering if there is a simple command such as this to call upon an existing variable in the parent? if not, is there a way i can import the variables using the import command?

I am trying to add a child in a movie clip and perform basic operations on the child but I cannot get access to the child.
It loads the child to the movieclip "FLine1MC" but it says FLine1MC.ClipArt1 does not exist when I try to change the x location.
function AddArt1(evt:MouseEvent): void {
var ClipArt1Request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/mypic.gif");
var ClipArt1:Loader = new Loader();
ClipArt1.load(ClipArt1Request);
FLine1MC.addChild(ClipArt1);
FLine1MC.ClipArt1.x = 550;
}
Anybody know what's my error?
By that token, is there a way we can check the exact path of an object?
I am adding a movieclip in a class I will call class B that is added to a class I will call class A. In class B I am adding the movieclip like this:
var thumbHolder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
thumbHolder.name = "thumb" + loadingCount;
MovieClip(root).slideMenuHolder_mc.slideMenu.thumbs_mc.addChild(thumbHolder);
trace("after: thumbHolder.name is: " + thumbHolder.name);
In class A, I can do something like this:
thumbs_mc.alpha = .3;
But if I try to do something like this, I get an error, even though the trace above traces out the names correctly. thumbs_mc.thumb1.alpha = .3;

View 3 RepliesI have a cloud named cloud2_mc and in its timeline i have a cloud layer, and an actions layer. I took the cloud and made it into a a Movie clip clip with an instance name of embeddedcloud_mc in this Movie clips timeline i have a 50 frame animation of the cloud breaking appart and disapating with a tween and i have a stop(); function on frame 1 of this layer.
What I want to happen is, when the cloud2_mc movie clip is clicked to play the animation of the cloud breaking appart. the cloud2_mc has a trajectory moving slowly accross the sceen continuously when the cloud2_mc reaches the side of the sceen it loops again. When the animation is clicked i would like it to continue across its path but, when the cloud2_mc reaches to left hand side of the screen i want the embeddedcloud_mc to reset its timeline and go back to its original state where the cloud has not broken appart.
My question is, how do I access an embedded movie clips timeline to tell it to play an animation on its timeline as well as, how do i make the same object restet its timeline to frame 1?
I am developing a shopping cart for my web store. What I am trying to do is initially a store front is rendered where a user selects the products and adds them to a shopping cart. The "cart" is a vector that holds all of the products selected. The user is then sent to a review page where he/she can review their order. It is then communicated to a PHP page for the final checkout and what not.[code]...
