Flex :: Access Children Elements In A SWC?
Feb 17, 2010
Does anyone know if its possible to access children elements in a SWC? I have created some MC's and inside of some of these MC's I have some dynamic textFields. I export the content to a SWC and load it into my Flex project. No problem loading it or accessing the parent elements, they display fine. But I want to access the textfields nestes in the MC's and modify the text. When I debug the app, I can see the textfields as child elements. It's typed as a TextField and the Instance Name is the same as input in the Flash IDE but I cannot access it. When Flex compiles it throws an error saying it doesn't recognize the method. I've tried to insert actionscript on the timeline, linked external classes and nothing can be accessed.

I have a Canvas which has many components inside it and those again, have many components inside them.
getChildren() returns only the top level children. What is the best way to retrieve all the children (children of children of children and so on).
Well, I sorta know how to do this by iterating through the children, but the code is really messy. I'd prefer to use a nice recursive function. Has anyone written this before? Or is there a Util class to do this?

Flex's new States re-parents visual items that are marked with includeIn/excludeFrom. If I have a Group (MainGroup) with 5 children/elements that are state controlled, is there still a way to get a reference to MainGroup's children? mainGroup.numChildren and mainGroup.numElements don't work since the children are re-parented. At best, they show 1.
<s:states>
<s:State name="view1State" />
<s:State name="view2State" />
<s:State name="view3State" />

Is there a way to access the DOM-Elements of a mxml file in a way that you can in JS (e.g. using Prototype or jQuery)?
I need to know if a top-level element has a child (sub-sub-...-childs) with a certain id.
In JS (using prototype) it would be something like:
$('tabs').select('[id="something"]');

I have a Sprite called pageContent. Inside pageContent are 12 more Sprites with unique names, a couple of Buttons, and some TextFields. Inside each of the 12 Sprites I have either one or two TextFields and one TextInput. My question is, since they are children inside a child of pageContent, how can I access them? Here is how I am trying to do it:
[Code]...
In my mind, this should totally work. But surprise, surprise, it doesn't. I have debugged it and it works fine for the first two lines, but when it tries to get numChildren of a Child of pageContent (line 3), I get this error: PHP Code: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property numChildren through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.

I've got a Flex 3 application with an HTTPService returning an Atom feed. I catch the result from it and store it in an arrayCollection which is then the provider of my Datagrid. I have no problem accessing the data from the "first-level" of my Array, but cannot go under it. Not very clear, so here is some code:
My XML [part of it]:
<entry>
<title>Test 2</title>
<id>http://collaboration.*****.com/collaboration/messaging/feeds/****/todo//7D6637D3E86B3ED3C12575B***8479</id>
<link rel="alternate" href="notes:///C12575B4004***8
[Code]....
The "title" column shows the data correctly, but the status column is empty ! When I launch my app in debug mode, I can see that my notesArray has the correct format and I can access todo -> status with the value..

I used the following to add an external .swf:

it worked as I wished - by placing the swf under all other elements on the timeline via the addChildAt being 0. I now need to add another external .swf (over the top of the one I just brought in) and was expecting by using:

it would place it above the other .swf but in fact, it places it under one element of it.
should this be the case of is there a different way to do what I wish to?

I have an object, myObj, that has no key/value pairs, only elements. When i trace it out i get the elements listed inbetween curly braces {item1, item2, item3, item4} I can access the first element by calling myObj.first( ) and I guess there are other methods I could try to call on the object - such as myObj.last( ) - but I can't seem to access the other elements in the object. I would like to be able to do something like:

I'm trying to access the childrens from an external swf previous loaded. This swf is a movieclip exported as swf which has two movieclips inside also.It loads the movieclip, but when I try to access to his childs, there is no one. What I'm doing wrong?

itemLoader = new Loader();
itemLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, itemLoaded);
itemLoader.load(new URLRequest("path"));[code].....

I'm looking at the XML class. I would like to be able to access elements by name and the order they came in.
For example, if an xml document is structured like this:
<a>
<b>info</b>
<d>something</d>
<b>more info</b>
</a>
[Code]...
xml_object.childNodes.length will return the number of childnodes there are. But I don't see a way to get at the number of childnodes of a particular type. This will not tell me, for example, how many childnodes of type "b" that "a" has. I can't see Flash XML support being this sparse. Is there a built-in way of accessing the nth child of a node of a particular element name or am I stuck with accessing it only by number.

How do access all of the children of a DisplayObject using code? (I'm looking for something like movieclip.children)
I'm using this in two cases:
1) To loop through and reposition all of the children of an enclosing MovieClip.
Or
2) To loop through and delete all of the children of a MovieClip
