ActionScript 3.0 :: Perform A HitTest That Only Works On Children With A Certain Depth?

Feb 27, 2012

I have a problem with the getChildIndex() method. I have an array that stores multiple children and I want to perform a hitTest that only works on children with a certain depth, with one that is lower than the other hitTest "partner". Therefore I want to check the depth of that certain child.I tried to trace the depth, but I get crazy errors doing that. No matter if I do it from the child itself, or from the Document Class.

trace(getChildIndex(foes[7][1][1]))

[7] is the current level, [1] is the type of child and the second [1] is the child itself called [Object EnGob]. I put it there by the push() command.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Remove The Children

Mar 12, 2010

adding all the bricks of another movie clip into an array in my controlling mc (GameScreen). Except, when I try to remove them from the display list by accessing them from their array, I get

Quote:

ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller at flash.display:isplayObjectContainer/removeChild()...and so on

I'm guessing it's something to do with adding another movie clip's children into an array in a movieclip that isn't the stored clips' direct parent, but it's parent's parent.

Code:
private function checkBrickHit():void{
for(var i:int=0;i<brickArray.length;i++){

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove All Children From Container

container[i].removeMovieClip();

Is there something similar in AS3 that I can do without resorting to maintaining an array of references to each child of my container?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Filter From Children?

May 18, 2011

I have a menu that is a type of wave, thus I'm using Flash, not HTML. My issue is that I have a bevel on that wave, but that bevel extends onto the text that is a child of the MC that has the bevel. Is there any way that I can remove the bevel from the text (Or technically shapes since they were imported from IL) without removing it from the entire element?

And yes, I've tried this.filters=[];

Also, I can't keep everything one shape in the MC, because I have hover attributes.

ActionScript 3 :: Remove All Children Function In Flash

Feb 22, 2011

Isn't there a simple "remove all children" function in flash? I don't understand why this code isn't working. I add children via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChildAt(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i],i);
loadCount++
}

And then remove them via:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChildAt(i);
}

But I get an error that the supplied index is out of bounds, and yet one clip is still left on stage. Likewise, if I try to add them without levels, like this:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.addChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
loadCount++
}

And remove:
for (var i in project_array[cp].project_type_clips){
container.header.type_loader.removeChild(project_array[cp].project_type_clips[i]);
}
I get the same error.

A quick second question, we all know that event listeners should be removed when no longer needed but I was wondering about the event.COMPLETE listener for loading say XML or a video file or any loader object. Is there any point removing that listener of is it in effect dead anyway because it has triggered when "COMPLETE" and won't ever trigger again? Isn't it still "listening"?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Remove Leftover Children From Previous Frame

Nov 9, 2009

I have created a flash file to serve as an image gallery with several different chapters. Each individual chapter is represented by a different frame on the timeline. On each chapter/frame, there is a thumbnail gallery at the bottom of the screen. When you click on the thumbnail, I have loaders set up to load and display the full size image. Then I have a loaderX.addEventListener set up so that when you click on the loaded image, it disappears. The problem occurs when you leave a full-size picture open, and then you navigate to another frame. Then when you try and click on it, you can't remove it anymore.

Now, I can't remove the loader(s) when the next chapter button is clicked because unless the user has clicked on the thumbnail, the loader has not been added to the stage, so there won't be anything to remove. I tried adding the following 'if' statement into the function that navigates to the next frame,

'if(stage.NumChildren >0){stage.removeChildAt(0)}

but the problem with that is that then it just removes all the children and either doesn't advance to the next frame or is just removing all children on the next frame as well, so i end up with an empty stage.

I've been dealing with this problem for close to two weeks now, and I can't even find a bulky way around it, never mind finding a tight clean fix.
