I encapsulate my addChild so that I can have an array of all the objects that are on stage for later garbage collection. this is how I do so [code]each gameObject has a property called garbage that is a boolean that is set when ready to be removed. When I set it to tree, this is what happens.ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
View 1 RepliesI have a display() function for an object rotator(image based like a QT object movie). It first saves the current image in a helper variable and then allocates a new image, from the library, beneath the old one. To get a nice crossfade effect, the old image's alpha is looped down via enter_frame and then removed.
Which is where there seems to be an issue with the display list, maybe recognizing oldImg's value as being already added? (it's not a first pass error)
Btw, do i have to remove the old image or can i leave it, for when it's being called up via the mouse position again? (the image number can get fairly large)
function display(num:Number):void //num: image number
{
...
oldImg = newImg;

if (modalMessage != null && contains(modalMessage)) {
removeChild(modalMessage); // the error is here

The Error is:
[Fault] exception, information=ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
How can this be? I am checking if it is a child beforehand.
I have seached and tried for weeks on this, and I cannot get the grip on this. The simple code below gives the "The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller" error.[code]squareObj is a movieclip in the library which is exported for AS. How can this code be altered to make it work correctly?
View 1 RepliesI having problems setting the child index of a sprite... It works perfectly on the first run of the program, but fails on the second time around.

I have a swf file that is loaded via addChild on frame 11, once the animation of this swf file has finished playing, the main swf then goes back to frame 1. However, this is where this issue comes in. Even though I have removed the child once, it seems to keep on trying to remove it again and again, this goes in to a continuous loop.

Here is my code just a simple removeChild should work.. but it gives me an error.
PHP Code:
function homeScene2(event:MouseEvent) {trace("button clicked");removeChild(imageText);removeChild(thumbHolder_mc);thumbHolder_mc.removeChild(imageLoader);removeChild(imageLoader);gotoAndStop(1,"1");}

here is a look at the children in the same code..

addChild(imageLoader);thumbHolder_mc.addChild(imageLoader);addChildAt(thumbHolder_mc, 0);addChild(imageText);
