For some reason, the same code works now, without any problem at all. I don't know what happened, or why, but I no longer have this problem Here's the original post: To put simply, I created a MovieClip, put it with addChild() to stage, and when I tried to call this piece of code:

I am creating movieclips into which I want to load thumbnails which are to be loaded dynamically. I'm not sure if the solution I am trying to build is the more effective way to do this; I'm still quite a noobie.
Each movieclip container which I will use hold the thumbnails is of a size to hold 16 thumbs, so the number of holder movieclips required is calculated at the time the xml loads; with the movieclips then being created, named and stored in an array. (The idea is to then move between these movieclips (and so the thumbs) using previous and next buttons) - however, I'm not at that stage yet!
However, when I call each movieclip to place the loaded thumbs in, the code throws the "#1010: A term is undefined and has no properties" Error. I think this is a problem with the array; and possibly the mc not being defined properly. However, I am not sure where my problem is.

HiI have a script, and when I test it, it gives me the following error; I want to know why ? Here is the error:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert 1 to flash.display.MovieClip. at jami_arcade_fla::MainTimeline/checkIfHit()
And here the code:
init();
function init():void{ Mouse.hide(); addEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, update );
addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, checkIfHit );}
function update( myEvent:Event ):void{ gunSight_mc.x = this.mouseX; gunSight_mc.y = this.mouseY;}

I'm sure this is a quick and easy question but I've been at it for a while and can't seem to get what the problem is.Inside my movieclip called "movies", I created a dynamic movieclip

addChild(my_movie)

getUser was already in UserService.java. I just created getUser2 and it's identical to getUser. When I try to call getUser2, i get the "Cannot invoke method" error. question: Do I need to specify getUser2 in some other file? like in some configuration file? if so, which one and how do I do it.
I need to instantiate them as instances of a custom class I have created. This is giving me an error, and I know I'm probably missing some simple concept somewhere, doing something wrong, but I don't know what it is.Here is my code:
In the main timeline, I have (simplified):
var puzzleAL:GeoGroup = new GeoGroup ("AL", "Alabama", 1, false);
puzzleAL.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, geoTouchBeginHandler);

stop();
this.removeChild(flash.display.MovieClip("fire"));
it isnt working it says this: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "fire" to flash.display.MovieClip.

I have problem. I work in Actionscript 3.0. I have add Movie Clip to stage by this code:
for (i=1;i<=33;i++){
var mcPipeShell = new pipeshell();
this.addChild(mcPipeShell);
}
my purpos is , after I add 33 instance of movieclip from custom class pipeshell. I want to access to each of them later such as control play head of each movie clip, and access variable entirer movie clips.
How do you align a dynamic movie clip position with another movie clip which is in the root stage? I tried to get the mc in root x,y position, but the starting point of the class that loads the dynamic MC does not seems to be accurate. (Meaning at the root stage, the x,y is 0,0 but at the dynamic class, its somewhere like 100,20 for the browser area (and it actually vary base on the browser size))
**the other classes I used to run the custom classes below, I have it added this MC to stage
var blocker:stageBlocker=new stageBlocker();
this.stage.addChild(blocker);
Below is the dynamic MC. Should I not add it to its own "stage"?
public class stageBlocker extends MovieClip {
private var blocker:MovieClip= new MovieClip();
public function stageBlocker():void {

How would you add a listener to an object inside of a movieclip that is in the library and as not been placed on the stage yet? Or, could you tell it to listen for when it does go on stage if it does come on the stage and when it comes on the stage to add an eventlistener to a movieclip inside of that?

I have a movieclip instance named 'placeholder' on the canvas, and I want to change the alpha of the named movieclip from it's class without effecting the alpha of all the movieclips of the same type. How would I specifically target the named movieclip instance that is on the canvas?
View 3 RepliesI have to call a movieclip inside of another movieclip.
Let say a movieclip with an instance name location_mc is inside a movieclip with and instance name menu_mc.
How the scripting will be if I want to call the location movieclip.
Everything was working well until I put all my buttons inside the menu moveiclip because I need to do something else.
This is my code which I know is wrong but if just to give you an idea of what I have got:
ActionScript Code:
fitzrovia_mc.buttonMode = true;
location_mc.buttonMode = true;
apartments_mc.buttonMode = true;

how can i access a movieclip via its instance name in another Movieclip class?
and a nother question how can i access a movieclip via its class name in another movieclip class?
BTW i want to access the movieclip child
I am trying to make a reference to a movieclip instance that is in another movieclip.
Here's the deal: I have a main timeline for different pages of a website...then within that I make all of the art on each page into a movieclip so I can do animations every time that main timeline frame is called to, yet still keep my main timeline clean.
Within one page's movieclip I have a few buttons that I want to use to go to other pages by referencing them on the main timeline.I have been using this: (home_about is the about us button on my home page, and frame 31 is on the main timeline).
home_about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_6);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndPlayFromFrame_6(event:MouseEvent) :void
{[code].............
Since this home_about is within another movieclip,I get the access of undefined property error. Do I need to change the code I've pasted above or add in variable definitions to fix this?
How do you tell the root timeline to root.gotoAndStop(2); from the timeline of a movieClip added using addChild?In the maintime line I have
addChild(fade_eng);
and in fade_eng I have the following on frame 20
root.gotoAndStop(2);
this.gotoAndStop(1);
But I am getting 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method gotoAndStop through a reference with static type flash.display:Stage.
I am trying to create an interactive graphic. Basically, it's three squares layered on top of each other, with a large square in back, a medium square centered in the middle of the large square, and a small square in front centered in the middle of the medium square.
When you roll over the medium square, say, it expands to almost the size of the large square and some text fades in, and the small square on top of it fades away. When you roll off of the medium square, it goes back to it's smaller size, and the small square fades back in.
Currently, I have the actionscript in the movieclip to make the medium square get larger and smaller (and the text fade in), but I need to somehow reference the instance of the small square movieclip to hide it when I roll over the medium movieclip.
My actionscript for the medium square activity, currently:
Code:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true){
[Code]....
how to have this rolling over action get rid of the small square and then bring it back on roll out.
I am trying to build an MXML application with Flash Builder 4.5, and I am integrating an API that requires the root of a display object to be a MovieClip. Personally I think this is bad design but I have to go with it. The root object always seems to end up as the stage, because of course I have to add the object to the stage for it to be added to the display list. Is there some way that I can either change the stage type in an MXML application to a MovieClip or is there some way to force a MovieClip wrapper to become the root of a display object?
