Does Flash CS4 run very slowly for everyone, or might there be something wrong with my installation? Just about anything I do takes ages to happen. For instance, if I open Properties to type in an Instance Name, when I click somewhere else after that it takes 4 or 5 seconds before I can do anyth

Once you really dig into E4X and realize the crazy stuff you can do, it's amazing. I do some pretty crazy E4X parsing, filtering and validation with Gaia. Here are some examples: // get all nodes named page or asset in the entire XML var nodes:XMLList = xml.descendants().(name() == "page"

Rob, I came across the same problem when trying out various E4X approaches with delete. Steve's idea works (with the caveat his removes populated nodes instead of unpopulated ones, but I fixed that). Thanks! Jason Merrill Bank of America Global Learning Shared Services Solutions Develop

Thanks Steve - have it working. Yep, I love E4X too - still learning all the intricacies like this, so this is another notch in my belt. (however for anyone listening and for the archives, your code does the opposite of what I want. It removes all nodes WITH children. I want to remove any nodes

Since Jason wanted to get rid of all the nodes that were empty he would want to filter against !=0 and then use setChildren to refresh his original xml. Using setChildren is a nifty trick, much nicer than that delete loop I put out there. Rob On 9-Jun-09, at 12:24 PM, Steven Sacks wrote:

Actually, you don't need that newXML var. Sorry. I left that in during debugging. Just setChildren the original xml, as I did. If you want to make a copy without destroying the original, then setChildren() the newXML var instead. ___ Flashcoder

This might get you pointed in the right direction. You can get an XMLList of all the empty nodes by this kind of statement xml.modules.module.(children().length() == 0); but if you then try a simple delete on that delete xml.modules.module.(children().length() == 0); you get: Delete operato

Posted this on Flash_tiger without any luck. I know about using delete in E4X XML to delete unwanted XML nodes, but how would you hunt down through and delete any nodes (of a specific type, say "" nodes in the example below) that don't have any children? For example, if myXML happens to look li

Why don't you create a BitmapData from the original background and apply the light on this new bitmapdata which even yourself said it's faster. Then, everytime the stage is resized you can just create another BitmapData from the original background. This is not really a solution, but seems a ni
