Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Clear The Contents Of Stage?
Sep 22, 2010
I have added some movie clips to the stage using addChild method on Some Mouse Events.Now on an event say Mouse Double Click I want to clean the stage.I checked the Stage class from reference it does not have any method called clear.Neither I have stored the references of the objects, so that i can clear them using removeChild()

What is the best way to clear the contents out of an array or to reset an array?
Say I have 3 arrays that get populated throughout a specific time. I want to be able to reset or clear out all of the data in the array so it is basically a new Array();

I have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.

I have two key frames on the Stage. The first one is empty; the actual movie starts from the second frame. Under some circumstances I have to clear everything on the stage and reload the movie. I remove all the movie clips and go back to the first frame. Unfortunately, it doesnt work with components. Can somebody tell me how I can remove everything from Stage? I tried btn.destroyObject(btn._name) but it seems it doesn�t work (the object cannot remove itself). And after several times I move back to the first frame, the components go broken

I'm doing a simple navigational menu and the idea is that when you rollover certain buttons, a linked movie clip appears in a certain spot and any other linked movie clips disappear off the stage. I heard about a bug with AS3 in CS4 and tried the following method but it's not working. All the movie clips stay on the stage. Nothing disappears. Where am I screwing up?

I am making a flashcard game with five subjects. It has buttons for moving forward and back,and buttons for switching to another subject The card instances for each subject are stored offstage, in separate frames (five in all), and their names are stored in arrays (five in all) Each time a button is pressed, the appropriate card tweens onto the stagepoint were still visible (not sure why, since the menu's on it's own frame), so I wrote a function to clear everything offstage whenever the menu button is clicked.My problem is weird: if you are in the math subject, switching to geography returns this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at flashcardapp1_fla::MainTimeline/frame3()
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()

I am making my first website in flash based on frames. When you go to an other frame the Stage fades out. When you enter the frame you see nothing at all. So how can I clear the stage when entering the frame or even better it fades into the frame with clearing the objects & code of the previous frame.[code]...

This would be done upon click of one of the buttons I have on the stage. That button also needs to execute a different class I have programmed. You can even just tell me what to search under to find out this data.xplanation: I have 2 different classes. Buttons class and Videos class. Buttons class loads the stage with 9 different buttons. Each button is supposed to lead to its own video. (I have the buttons ready with programming to load the video and all of the programming works). The Video class loads the video onto the stage and has the controls for it to play, pause, stop etc (works pretty much..).

Now, I am not sure what code to put under each of the buttons to clear the stage and load the Video class.

furthermore would it be possible to make the bitmap distort so it transitions downward something like this? [url]...

Can a finished flash file be resized.
Stage is at 1684 x 1322 animated map operated by buttons in a static key located outside of map border, all on stage. Map also pans/zooms.
Two scenarios:-
1) resize stage and all contents down to a different size.
2) resize the animated map down but more so than the static key (sits outside the map) which should remain readable.

Is it possible to programatically export the contents of the stage to a jpg format? The goal is generating a starfield from a Photoshop png object over a background created in Photoshop inspired by van gogh starry night, then the result is exported in jpg of select sizes 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1040.
That can be downloaded from a browser or emailed for use as wallpaper

I am trying to print a snapshot of the contents of a movieclip on the stage...this snapshot is stored in a bmp...then the bmp is attached to a movieclip which is rotated 90 degrees to fit on the page in landscape fashion...so the user doesn't have to alter their printer settings...however when I do mc.rotation = -90; or mc.rotation -= 90; the printout on the page is the bmp sliced diagonally in half...and one half isn't showing...when I tried +90 it worked, but the mc wasn't placed correctly on the page...I also tried +270, and that produced the half cut diagonal bmp again...here is my print code..

I'm working on a game whose background has many layers that each scroll at different speeds.
Inside each layer I have a Sprite, I've started using graphics.beginBitmapFill, but what I've found is that the graphics.clear() function doesn't actually clear the contents set by the previous call to graphics.begin.BitmapFill. Each frame, I adjust the matrix to shift the layer as needed. Then, I call graphics.clear() and graphics.beginBitmapFill() with the adjusted matrix. Since my layers have alphas in the bitmap, I can see the contents that was drawn the previous frame.

I have a Flash CS4 document and I am attempting to resize the stage to accomodate its current contents.When I do so, the stage becomes *much larger* than the apparent contents, and I am trying to figure out why. I have literally examined every frame of the animation, and selected every individual object to see if the selection bounds indicate a rogue "large object"...but none indicate this...what sort of things about the contents might cause this that I am missing?

I loaded a swf from external. using loader class. But if i check with the width and height of the loader is differes from loader.contentLoaderInfo.width.
loader.width // 1250;
loader.height // 750;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.width // 750;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.height //420;
From this statement i came to know the loader gets the width of all hidden objects, which are already outside of the stage area. But now I need to increase the size of the stage contents only..

I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.

Is there a way to clear a textfield when all else fails? This is from a very long document I can't post. The textfield is on stage and worked fine until this call. There's no error, I just can change text

//VARIABLE THAT EFFECT THESE TEXTFIELDS
V1 = 0;
V2 = 0;

I have a question how can I clear/free memory in flash? For example I am finishing game and I want to start from beginning and if I will just jump to the first frame all the objects there are still in this memory, is any possibility to force cleaning memory? Can I free memory for an object? for example I removeChild(something) - and I want to free memory for an object as I will reuse it? How the engine works?

i've been working with flash for a long time, but there's still something that i don't quite think i'm understanding fully. i see many of these sophisticated photography sites programmed so that the photo fills the whole screen (such asand the photo is crisp and clear on any sized monitor.i know how to set the site to be programmed to fill 100% of the screen, and i know how to "trace bitmap" inside of flash so that the photos work a little better. they then act more like vector images than bitmaps which tend to pixelate when proportions are enlarged. but when i use the "trace bitmap" feature, the flash file often becomes very large size in terms of KB, even when some detailed smaller images are traced.
