How can I search the stage for a given Movieclip and then add all instances of it to an Array? AS3

I would like to Add multible instances of one Movieclip, (Library Name = Bats | instance name = none), inside of another Movieclip (instance name = back.visuals) // (By HAND) NOT by addChild(mc_name); // Easy
If anyone could help me out with code to do the next steps:
Search the Movieclip, (instance name = back.visuals), that contains the Movieclips, (Library Name = Bats | instance name = none), manually added to the stage by hand.
Then for all instances of this movieclip (Library Name = Bats | instance name = none) add them to an Array.
Thank You,
Dyami

I think we are having some missed communication. I do not wish to Change Flash's IDE or deveolp new features for flash. I was wondering if there was a way to do my question with AS3. something along the lines of :
var enemyList:Array = new Array;
for (var index:int = 0;index < back.visuals.numChildren;index++)
    var wall:MovieClip = back.visuals.getChildAt(index) as MovieClip;
/* Check to see if wall is of a Specfic MovieClip */
/* if (Above is True){ enemyList.push(wall) };

  • It appears "save as" was removed in the creation of Yosemite.  How can I save a spreadsheet as a new document and then change all the data

    "save as" was removed in the creation of Yosemite (File > Save as)  How can I save an existing spreadsheet so that I can modify the data, rename it , and save it as a new document?

    rkaufmann87
    To address the first part of your response; as unnecessary as it was; save as has not been gone for years!!  It is predicated on the operating system in play on ones computer.  The software that I was using as recent as six months ago had a "Save as" option in the menu bar.  Further, as you may have noted in "babowa's response it is clear that it still exists to this day in apple's most recent software "Yosemite 10.10.2.  This appears to be true whether talking about numbers or pages (apps.)  Oh, and by the way I am employing the most recent versions offered by Apple!  Your car may be five years old but I am sure you still find it very useful.  Case and point; it's not gone!!!

  • How can it be the Mobile Hotspot feature worked, failed, and then worked again?

    I am having a love hate relationship with my Galaxy S3. The latest experience happened when I arrived at the beach expecting to connect to the Internet through a mobile hotspot established on my Galaxy S III; but that was not to be.  When I turned on my Macbook it could not find the mobile hotspot named Cavanaugh established a half hour earlier with help from a Verizon Wireless Sales Consultant, and all devices were allowed to connect. What could cause this inconsistency!
    I went home and as I customarily do I plugged my cell phone into its charger.  The battery had 44% capacity left, I like to recharge to 100% at the end-of-day, so I recharged the cell phone to 100%.  Guess what?  With the cell phone battery fully charged the mobile hot appeared on my notebook, and I connected the notebook to the Internet through the cell phone.
    Has anyone else had a similar experience?  How much battery juice is needed to run mobile hotspot?

    While I am unsure how much battery is "needed" to run the hotspot, the battery WILL drain faster when the hotspot is active. Quite possibly, the phone will deactivate the hotspot when the battery falls below a certain level.
    This is the reason I ONLY have my hotspot turned on when I want to use it. I don't see a reason to have it active when not using it, along with the "possibility" of someone hijacking my signal in order to use my data stream without having to pay for it.

  • How can I decouple the pagination for a global region?

    I was having a delightful time using a common region defined on a global page when I determined that pagination setting was begin carried from one page to the next.  Arghhhh!  So for example, if I have paged to the second set (page) of rows (11-20) on Page 1 and then I go to Page 2, the second set (page) of rows (11-20) is displayed there.   If I go to a page which only has a first set of rows (1-10), I get the pagination error "Invalid set of rows requested, the source data of the report has been modified. Reset Pagination".  And when I click to reset, it just repeats the error.  [I suppose it tries to display the second set or rows (11-20) again -- which doesn't exist.  What's that saying about insanity?]  
    How can I decouple the pagination for a global region? I want it to operarate just as it would if it were not sharing a common region.  So if I'm looking at rows (11-20) on page 1, I can go to any other page beginning with rows 1-10 there.  Then return to page 1 where I left off with rows 11-20 displayed.  One solution is NOT to paginate but that's not my preferred solution.

    The fact that there are different numbers of rows returned on different pages implies that the reports have some local page dependencies, so why try to use a global component? What's the actual requirement? How many pages does the report have to appear on? (Please say it is a report and not a tabular form...)
    How can I decouple the pagination for a global region? I want it to operarate just as it would if it were not sharing a common region.
    The point is that a global region is just that: a single region that happens to be displayed on multiple pages. It does not create multiple instances of a region on different pages. (Specifically, a region has a single region ID, and this is used to reference it whether it appears on one page or all of them. The region ID is used by the report for the purposes of AJAX refresh, pagination etc.)
    A similar situation was discussed a long time ago. I'm rather surprised that Scott regarded it as a bug: the fact that it doesn't seem to have been "fixed" or have a bug number attached may indicate that the others on the APEX team disagreed with him? I haven't tried the workaround he suggested, however I don't think it's likely to be prove a useful line of attack for your issue, as (1) it resets pagination rather than preserving it; and (2) it doesn't appear to be compatible with the AJAX PPR pagination used in more recent versions of APEX.
    I can't see any straightforward "solution" (largely because I don't think there's really a problem: the exhibited behaviour is exactly how I expect/want global regions to behave). Pagination processing is undocumented. The current 4.2 apex.widget.report.paginate JS method is specifically annotated as "for internal use only". Search the forum for custom pagination techniques. Messy looking hacks for IRs have previously been suggested.
    So if I'm looking at rows (11-20) on page 1, I can go to any other page beginning with rows 1-10 there.  Then return to page 1 where I left off with rows 11-20 displayed.  One solution is NOT to paginate but that's not my preferred solution.
    Assuming that there aren't too many pages involved, the other obvious option is to create unique regions on the required pages. You can achieve some level of reusability by creating SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query) reports based on an external function so that there's only a single SQL source to be maintained.
    Explain the requirement in more detail. Pagination is not the only option for reducing the quantity of displayed information. Often it's better to display some of all of the data, rather than all of some of it...

  • How can I change the location for the backup from iphone to itunes?

    How can I change the location for the backup from iphone to itunes? I want to backup to my external harddisk and not the computer itself. How do I do it?

    Moving the iOS device backup location
    Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up, or with Start > Run on older Windows.
    To move the current backup folder from C: to D: (for example) type in this command and press <Enter>
    Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    Where <User> is your Windows user name.
    To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
    MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    If your preferred drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "D:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
    If you have Windows XP then you'll need a third-party tool such as Junction to link the two locations together instead of the MkLink command. The source folder is C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

  • How can I expand the stage (in one direction) on rollover? Or click?

    Hello,
    I'm looking to create an expanding/collapsing HTML5 banner using Edge Animate.
    For example, say I start with a 728x90 banner. How can I make the stage expand (from the bottom edge) to 728x270?
    At the moment I'm looking to expand on rollover then collapse back to original stage size on rollout - but in the future I know I'll want the same functionality using a button.
    All help is appreciated, thank you!

    I am on the go for the day but here is a quick routine, using the toggle() method.
    In your case you can't collapse the etage to 0, otherwise you have no way of getting to the second click.
    In my exmple, click anywhere on the stage, it collapses to the minHeight value of 15.
    Click it again and it restores to the predefined height of the stage.
    var minHeight = 15;
    var myStageHeight = sym.$("Stage").css("height");
    sym.$("Stage").toggle(function(){                    // run on first click of Stage
        sym.$("Stage").animate({height: minHeight}, 500 );
    }, function() {                                                   // run the second click of Stage
        sym.$("Stage").animate({height: myStageHeight}, 500 );
    If you are going to apply to an element, say a button, then its going to require you to move (flow) the button to the collapsed position.
    I'll play with that notion later, when I get back.
    Try the above

  • HT1529 how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

    how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

    The reason it will not be in the sent folder is, it failed to send.
    If it failed to send, then you will see the Outbox icon. 'Pending' would be a more descriptive name.
    When it eventually sends, the Outbox will not show in the Mail app interface.
    Until it is sent it will stay stuck in the Outbox.
    If it refuses to send, you can manually delete it in Finder, at the location ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Outbox.mbox
    Close Mail first, before you search for that email using the Finder.

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

    You could use the DecimalFormat or NumberFormat to do the job.
    double number 1234.567;
    DecimalForamt df = new DecimalFormat("###.##");
    String s = df.format(number);or
    double number 1234.567;
    NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
    nf.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
    /* if needed.
       nf.setMaximumIntegerDigits(value);
       nf.setMinimumFractionDigits(value);
       nf.setMinimumIntegerDigits(value); */
    String s = nf.format(number);I didn't test the codes but they should work. For more information, please consult the documentations.
