Hi dnk,
This may not be a proper answer to your question, but when faced with
this kind of headache I stick all the problem buttons, thumbnails etc
in a single movieclip, delete that clip to clear them, and redraw the
whole thing from scratch. Bad for the processor, good for my sanity.

Well that is essentially what I am doing..... Although my code writes a
bunch of empty MC's and then removes them after - and then tries to
recreate it.
create (simplified):
for (var i:Number = 0; i < 35; i++) {
//create empty MC's to hold reg. buttons (non components)
this._targetMc.slidemenu.createEmptyMovieClip("btn_mc" + i,
this._targetMc.slidemenu.getNextHighestDepth());
//create loaders for thumbnails.
this._targetMc.slidemenu.createObject("Loader", "theThumb" + i,
this._targetMc.slidemenu.getNextHighestDepth());
//create the actual btns from my library into the empty MC's
this._targetMc.slidemenu["btn_mc" + i].createObject("HitDk", "theHit" +
i, this._targetMc.slidemenu["btn_mc" + i].getNextHighestDepth());
//add content to loaders
this._targetMc.slidemenu["theThumb" + i].contentPath = this.baseURL +
myThumb;
}
remove (simplified):
for (var i:Number = 0; i < 35; i++) {
//remove the loader components
this._targetMc.slidemenu.destroyObject("theThumb" + i);
//unload the MC's containing my non-component btns
this._targetMc.slidemenu["btn_mc" + i].unloadMovie();
}
Now like i said - the 2nd time it runs the create portion, everything is
messed up - which makes no sense to me. I mean if it worked the first
time, why not a second? The only thing I can think of is it by chance
the objects are not actually removed (even though a visual test says
they are).
ideas?
Thanks.
