Professional :: Customising Text Within Child Movieclip?
Jan 19, 2010
I have a movieclip that contains a second movie clip. This inner movie clip is being animated so that it's transparency gradually fades in. If you go into this inner clip, in addition to all the objects that make it up, there's a layer of text. I want to be able to place multiple instances of the parent clip on the main timeline so that each of them are identical except for the text that exists in the child movie clip, ie. I want to be able to customise this inner text.Is this possible to do? I mean if I place a number of instance on the root timeline and change the text of each of these instances, will they remain unique

Does anyone know the actionscript 3.0 parameters in removing the child within a movieclip? This is my scenario:
1. I have two (2) languages which play on the main timeline. Each languages are movieclips.
2. I have a movieclip which has buttons. These buttons are added dynamically using "stage.addChild(main_menu)"
3. I have a go back button together with the main timeline. How can remove a child on a timeline? For example when I choose the language A: it will play through by a movieclip and the buttons will be added dynamically [the dynamically added buttons are inside this movieclip; also the AS3 is inside that movieclip]. I wanted to remove the added child when the go back button is pressed and return to certain frame on the main timeline. The go back button is not included in the said movieclip--it is within the same timeline of languages and I wanted the script to be on the main timeline.

I'm currently learning flash (slowly), where everything is taking me a quite while to do! But I'm learning it for my job where eventually I will have to update some templates, and was hoping someone could advise how long this would take an experienced flash person to complete;The animation features a car flying in from left hand side, then three lines of text dropping down on the right hand side, one after another.How long would it take to amend this basic template - animation remains the same but car image is different and text is different.

How can I get the column headerText values from DB? 2. If the user can enter the column names, it has to be saved to the DB and then loaded.

i have a parent movieclip mcA and i want to add another movieclip mcB (child movieclip) inside mcA such that the extra part of mcB is hidden. The size of movieclip remains same as of mcA
For ex:-
mcA = 300x300
mcB = 400x400
then only 300x300 of mcB movieclip is visible and rest of the part is hidden.

I have a movieclip (parent).inside that there are many buttons(movieclips). If click on any button the whole movieclip(parent) should rotate and stop at a point. For each button inside parent movieclip there is textbox. While the parent is rotating the text is also rotating, I don't want that effect. I even converted the textbox to movieclip and tried to make that movieclips rotation=0 but not working.

I've got a dozen movie clips on stage, each with 3 children, and each of those have 8 children, as example named u01-u08.
Is it possible to access u01 directly without the parent names? like a wildcard? like the xml way of getting to nodes with a .. ?
sort of like: stage..u01.alpha = .5;

I have a picture on the stage that has multiple items that have hotspots/links over them that should open a child swf on top of the background and show details about the items. then have a button in the child swf itself that removes the child from over the background so the user can click on another item etc.I found this code in someone's post and I am trying to modify it so that works for multiple swf files...it currently works for a single swf.I wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the referring button. But I can't figure it out. Here is the code I am using on the stage

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?

In my document class I have assigned the root of fla to theRoot movieclip as theRoot = MovieClip(this.root); And as my program proceeds I have added several childs to theRoot. Now at the end of my program I need to delete all the childs of theRoot. So,how can I do this without individually deleting single childs.

First post here. I have a list of images preloaded through an XML file, and in order to store them in my animation, I had to load each of them into a separate MovieClip. Now I want to pick one of them at random, show it onscreen, remove it and show another one, etc. In order to do that, I created an empty MovieClip on the stage and moved it around, giving it the animation I wanted, and now I was wondering how to "attach" one of the image-containing-MovieClips to it, so that it moves along with it.
None of the methods that I've seen in AS 2.0 seem to work. Normally I'd use attachMovie(), but I understand that it only works with MovieClips that are in the Library, while mine are dynamically created from the preloaded images.

I want to add a child to a movieclip on the stage and then modify its opacity, but I got a problem, when I try this:
ActionScript Code:
var a = new LibraryItem();
mconstage.addChild(a);
mconstage.a.alpha = 0.5;
I get an error saying that mconstage.a is undefined... and in fact if I trace it I get "undefined".

I'm having a problem with a Class (extends MovieClip) that is a member variable of another Class (also extends MovieClip). When I add the child Class to the parent Class, it doesn't display when the parent is added to stage's display list. It will display if added to the stage itself, but that negates it being a member variable in the first place. I need that for what I'm doing, as having it all encapsulated is important. Is there something I'm doing wrong in initialization that could be causing it to not display? I'm using CS4 Pro with Flash 10, by the by.

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]...

I have my stage and on it is one MovieClip that contains another MovieClip... Now I have a document class calledMain. Here it is
Code:
package{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code]....
Personally, I prefer just having separate classes fo each object then bring them all together at compile-time, but someone I know had a problem with his game which had a lot of embeded movieclips already on the stage.
how I could go about accessing the Sprite "lmao" which is on Frame 2 of the "omg" MovieClip?

so I am building a image scroller, that is fairly simple, but I am really having a hard time with targeting the clips inside the main clip. Here is the code that makes the scroller either visible or not :
mouseOverClip.onRollOver = function() {
TweenLite.to(mouseOverClip, .5, {_y:107});
mouseOverClip.rotateImg.gotoAndPlay(2);
[code]....
now in mouseOverClip, I have a clip called clipA that I need to perform a function when the mouse rolls over, however since the mouseOverClip is "listening" for the mouse over/out, its ignoring clipA. someone help! Im thinking there should be logic inside the rollOver to check what clip im over and to perform a function if that is true....
