Hello
I would like to remove Child, but can't detect it's parent.
How to remove a Child without knowing it's parent?
mychild.parent.removeChild(mychild)
doesn't work..

Actually I think your code should be
mychild._parent.removeChild(mychild)
But I am thinking in AS2, so this may not be the case for AS3.
Not sure.

Maybe..
var childParent:Object = mychild.parent;
childParent.removeChild(mychild)
or
var childParent:Object = mychild._parent;
childParent.removeChild(mychild)

Hello fellow flashcoders,
is there a way in AS3 to detect when the user
closes the browser with your flash movie or
navigates away from the web page containing it?
I'd like to send short information to the server
when doing so. I have a flash movie acting both
as socket and HTTP client

That's part of it. I've used the teddy bear technique a lot, and it forces

Are you sure that the child you are trying to remove is in a display list?

It sounds like what you are doing is correct. Perhaps your child isn't on
the stage.
Try something like this:
if(child.parent){
child.parent.removeChild(child);
}
Which will only attemp to remove child if the parent exists.
If you expect your child to always be parented, you might want to

You mean like flash does for you?
Couldn't you just put:
Main.stop();
Instead of editing the library asset?

No, the problem is with mcHand, not the main timeline.

Try
this.removeChild(myChild);
parent.removeChild(myChild);
Without the myChild reference in the beginning.
Or set the child in the beginning.
ParentMCName.addChild(myChild);
Then you should be able to reference the parent if was defined when
creating the child.
Hth.

Hello,
Can I make a suggestion for the new Flash App.
Can we get a radio button selection in the properties pane for any MC
to smooth its contents or not?
That way anything loaded into that MC can be opted to be smoothed or
not.
Less programing code if this was the case I think.

We code in flash or in actionscript but we are not the creators of (the)
Flash (IDE);

I went ahead and submitted my suggestion.
But I asked here, because I know some of the Adobe people list here

Thanks for the link though.

First you have to define how to smooth vector graphics. Smoothing is
only for bitmaps and it's supported there already.

The class creates the instance of the symbol.

Each frame has different movieclips.

Hi all,
I have been working on an AS3-based animation app and finally have
made a version public:

Anyone interested in some beta-testing? There are still some bugs,
but it's stable and usable. I'd love to get feedback from some folks
who are animators.
