Professional :: Remove Child Within A Movieclip
May 26, 2011
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.

On the main timeline I have a movieclip called "sections". Within "sections" there are 2 movieclips (1 simple button called closeContent and a movieClip called content_aboutUs).I am trying to remove the button "closeContent" from the stage within the "content_aboutUs" movieclip.A following function is called within the "content_aboutUs" movieclip.
PHP Code:
function closeTabContent(e:Event):void {
parent.removeChild(closeContent);

I've tried simply overwriting the function from the parent, to no avail - both of the listeners fire. I also tried removing the listener like this:
ActionScript Code:
with(st_mc)
{
this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, overFX);
[Code]....
Overwriting the function didn't work either. It made a fuss about it
If not, I'll have to go into each movieclip and remove the hand scribed code. Which will be a pretty big deal as there's at least 50.

I am using the following code to generate a bullet (I have a bullet it the library linked Bullet):
ActionScript Code:
function createBullet (bulletSpeed:Number, startx:Number, starty:Number) {
var bullet:MovieClip = new Bullet();
bullet.x = startx;
[Code].....
upon the bullet.x getting to less that 50 it deletes the movieclip ok (other instances of the bullet are still onstage, which is what I want) but it gives the error:
ActionScript Code:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()

Someone the other day provided me with this code to a remove a child from the main timeline from within a movieclip.
parent.removeChild(MovieClip(parent).mc1);
This works fine, but how can I write an if statement to test if its in the display list before removing it?
As I'm getting an error if I try to remove it once its already been removed.

I have created event listeners for a particular movieclip.Insidet this movieclip there is so many objects.When ever I click on the parent movieclip the event listener calls the function for the child object. I had tried removeEventLIstener()
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var info:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
info.graphics.beginFill(0x000000,0.35);

I have an issue where removechild won't infact remove a child. I think its something to do with my dropTarget.parent issues. The concept of the code is that you drag a source onto a destination. When you drop the source onto the destination you will get a text field that says "Hello" or "Goodbye". The objective i want to achive is that once i drop a source onto the destination, removechild will remove any previouse textfields added. This is proving difficult.

I have a .fla that contains five movieclips, and have a couple of questions regarding removing movieclips and swf size.If all the movieclips are displayed, my resulting swf is about 50k.If, in frame 1, I code conditionals that decide which of the movieclips will be displayed, will the resulting swf size become smaller if some of the clips aren't displayed?If so, what is the correct way to totally remove a movieclip from memory? Say I have a main movieclip that contains 5 other mcs, and the as code is within the main movieclip.If not, is there a way to make the swf size smaller if less than all clips are displayed (using conditionals).

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

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.

flash and am trying to create a vending machine game but I seem to have come unstuck. The coin_slot that I have added doesn't seem to remove from the stage after frame3. I have included colour to the the event triggers to allow me to see what is happening at the moment the coin_slot image that I add does seem to remove from the stae but there still seems to be something hidden within the stage. This is still in really rough stage of development I just need to figure out the code at the moment.

none of it worked, It's just a minor cleanup really. Whenever you click a new picture you can see all the ones underneath it during the load so I just want to clear out those items or rather clear the loader before it loads something new.

I have a missile which gets fired once the mouse button is down. The main class snippet is:
ActionScript Code:
public function moveTheBullet(event:Event):void
{
if(buttonDown)
[code]....
The bullet is now flying across the screen thanks to the Rock class which control its velocity and direction. When the missile is off the screen, however, I'd like to remove it, so it doesnt eat up memory. This is how I'm trying to accomplish that (the code's in the Rock class):
ActionScript Code:
public function moveIt(event:Event):void
{
if(this.x > 200)
[code]....
But yeah, its not working at all. I'm getting the error: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. how to remove the bullets.

I am making a game (surprise, surprise). In the game there are things to collect, possibly lives. I can add them to the screen but removing them is an issue. The best way I have worked out is to create a sprite called livesContainer, add all the lives to that, then, if the user returns to the main menu, I can remove all of the lives by removing that one container. Here's how I create all of the lives and add them to the stage. This all works and you don't really need to read all of it.[code]...

I have the following function to add movie clips to the stage...I assume it is the correct way to add movieclips to the stage becuase it works.
function attachMovieClips(){for (var i=0; i<list_array.length; i++){var mySelectFile:selectFile = new selectFile();mySelectFile.name = "mySelectFile"+i;mySelectFile.y = (mySelectFile.height + 10)*i;addChild(mySelectFile);}}
attachMovieClips();
i need a function to remove all the attached movie clips...I assume i need to use removeChild however everything i've tried hasn't worked...
