ActionScript 3.0 :: Set A Default Extension When Saving An Image Using FileReference Save Method?
Nov 3, 2009Is there a way to set a default extension when saving an image using FileReference save method?
Code:

fileReference.save( pngData, "image.png" );
If windows is set to "hide known file extensions", only image without extension will be displayed in save dialog. File type is "*.*". Some of my users hat the great idea to add .jpg extension in filename, because they couldn't see one. So file was saved broken as image.jpg.

Actionscript 3 :: Determine A Caller's Class?
Apr 21, 2011since the MXMLC compiler doesn't support mixed access modifiers for setters/getters, i would like to know whether a public setter function is being called from inside or outside of the setter's class. this approach should allow me to maintain a public property but with more security, something like public/private hybrid access. is it possible to use arguments' callee property, or perhaps something else, to determine whether the setter was set internally from the setter's class or if it was set externally?

Sep 5, 2009This is the error I am getting....This is the situation I am using addChild and removeChild. I have two main movieclips that this is based around. workss_mc and work_mc. workss_mc is the slideshow, work_mc is the selection grid. When you click on an object in work_mc I am adding adding a child (workss_mc) and removing work_mc at the same time. That works fine; however, in workss_mc I have a back button, this back button is used to remove works_mc once it is removed it sends you back to work_mc. Once you are back on work_mc everything should work completely the same, however, it's like it's ignoring the code.Here is the code for the button:
Code:

function clickHandler(event:Event) {

ActionScript 3.0 :: 2025 Error And Finding A Caller?
Jun 29, 2009I have to arrays, they both hit detect against each other. When they detect a hit they each launch a method in the custom class as well as splice the entries out of the arrays. Now, I CAN NOT remove the child right their cause that causes them to immediately delete themselves from the stage, I need the death animation to play. I can't remove them in the class cause it says it can only be removed from the caller.
Code:
for(var b=0; b<blastArray.length;b++){
for(var s=0; s<boxArray.length;s++){
if(blastArray[b].hitTestObject(boxArray[s])){ //test if they hit each other

If I put removeChild(this) in the boxArray method .die, I get a 2025 error.
If I try parent.removeChild(this), I get, cannot access property of a null object. 1009 error.
