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.
below shows how to add child in a movieclip. ebd.target.addChild(info_grd); there is button named my_btn inside the movieclip info_grd.I would like to remove movieclip info_grd.parent
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);
have made interactive quiz which have 12 movieclips each movieclip contains loop animation and sound in it(on Timeline), i export them as classes, clip1, clip2, clip3....etc, now i m doing when user reach on question 1, then clip1. comes on screen and playes that movieclip and after clickicking on right answer clip needs to remove from stage, but it is happening that clip is gone unvisible but is sound is till working
var hint:clip1=new clip1() addChild(hint) when user choose right answer
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() at Function/<anonymous>()
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); [Code] ..... I want to delete mc's parent
i'm new to AS3 and i was wondering what is the best way to remove a child at a point. i tried Holder.removeChild(Holder.getObjectsUnderPoint(new Point(exampleX, exampleY))[0]); however that returned ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
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.
so I have a movieclip on the stage(lets call that selection movieclip) that once a button is clicked is going to open another movieclip(call this slideshow) I am trying to remove the selection movieclip when you launch the slideshow movieclip.
the problem is that when i click on first button the Movie Clip does load ok but when i click on second button the first movie cliip is visible, i have try everything i have read here but no luck, i want to learn how to remove first child and allow only the second child to show up, i am looking forward to add more buttons so the remove child should be for multiple buttons, i am learning and so far did purchase a online tutorial but did not help me with this situation,
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.
when i do this it does remove the child BUT i get the old "The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller." business. How would i do this properly?????
I'm making a game for children where they have to pay money by dragging it on a square. It al works wel only when i pick the first coin of one euro without going over the coin of 2 euro and then pick up a 2 euro coin the one euro disappears. after then it all works fine.i cant remove my duplicate euro's from the stage when i clic on pay here is my code for the euro's the euro's are in a emty movieclip
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]...
Main.swf creates a new instance of the SuperMan Class. I'm trying to get the SuperMan class to remove itself when you push a button that the class creates. I'm using:removeChild(this);However I am getting the error:ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
