Can't add a child

I'm trying to use a class from inside another class, but I
cannot make the content of the second class display. My problem is
with the line: square2.addShape(150,150)
How do I add square2 to my display? Please let me know if
this is unclear and I will elaborate.
Thanks for looking at this!

yeas I forgot about that, as I recall , Sprite can not
(directly) be used within hierarchy of DisplayList Objects ..
Lang Ref:
Note (Sprite): While the child argument to the method is
specified as of type DisplayObject, the argument must implement the
IUIComponent interface to be added as a child of a container. All
Flex components implement this interface.

  • HI Can I add a child node to an Element Node with a name that  exists

    HI,
    Can I add a child node to an Element Node with a name that is already existing in the Element Node.
    Let me explain what I need exactly.
    My Existing element Node looks like this:
    <form>
    <name>
    <FirstName></FirstName>
    <LastName></LastName>
    </name>
    </form>
    Can I add another child node with hte name 'FirstName' to the 'name' node ..?
    I want to put a attribute rvsn with a value 1 for the original 'FirstName' element Node.
    so the new Element Node should look like the foloowing:
    <form>
    <name>
    <FirstName rvsn="1"></FirstName>
    <FirstName></FirstName>
    <LastName></LastName>
    </name>
    </form>
    Hopefully this is valid XML !!
    when I tried to use appendChild, it removed the previous node and put the new one. Thats what is the documentation also said.. I read it after I tried it :(
    Anyway, ther should be another way to add a node like that.
    Any hints, ideas will be of great help.
    -Thanks in advance !!

  • Can't add second child to StackPane repeatedly

    Hi,
    I have a StackPane array, which is filled up with two ImageViews. First ImageView is an unique picture, second ImageView is the same for every StackPane:
           StackPane[] cards = new StackPane[gisView.length];
            for (int i = 0; i < cards.length; i++) {
                cards[i] = new StackPane();
                System.out.println(cards.getChildren().add(gisView[i]));
    System.out.println(cards[i].getChildren().add(topCard));
    System.out.println(cards[i].isManaged());
    System.out.println(cards[i].getChildren());
    The problem is, that the second ImageView - topCard, is added only to first/last StackPane even I added it to every StackPane in cards.
    - both add() methods return true, as well as isManaged() method.
    - addAll(E...) doesn't work either even it returns true too.
    - I checked the errorProperty for every Image and there's no problem with loading the images.
    - both ImageViews do get added to StackPane inside the for loop, but there's only one ImageView in StackPane outside the for loop.
    I hope it's some trivial issue that I just can't spot.

  • There is no place in add a field in contacts to add another person.how can I add another child?

    I'm trying to add another child to my contact info and can't find the place to do it. Went to add field but there wasn't any choice for adding another person.  This is my first Apple product and I must say I'm not very impressed.

    Hey Memeyork,
    Within the Contacts app, you would want to press the + sign at the top right to add a new contact. Here are some other ways you can add contacts to your iPhone:

  • AS3.0: Can't add child and access subchildren timelines?

    I have the following code:

    var mySymbol_01:Symbol01 = new Symbol01();
    var mySymbol_02:Symbol02 = new Symbol02();
    myParent.x=100;
    myParent.y=100;
    addChild(myParent);
    myParent.gotoAndStop(1);

    myParent.y=100;
    //myParent.rects.width=200;
    //myParent.circ.width=300;
    If I take
    //myParent.rects.width=200;
    //myParent.circ.width=300;
    and remove the comments, the file breaks and no Movie Clips appear on the stage.  Does this have to do with casting the Children as Movie Clips, which I may not have done here?

    No error codes Ned, it just adds the Child at the last frame in the timeline which happens to be frame 60 (I have a
    n animation in the y direction just for kicks to see if I can get the animation to play and have the object move down
    ward vertically but it just "pops" into place without any animation.
    And no, it's not a sound animation.

  • Can't add a family member to family share on icloud?

    I Successfully added one child to family share but when I went to add second child it gets hung up on the screen where you type family members email. I type it in or select child's name from my list of contacts and then select NEXT. Nothing Happens. the blue letters of next fade to the light blue then the circle thing spins and the NEXT pops back up in blue and nothing happens. Can someone please help me figure out why I can't add a second child. Yes, they have an icloud account, I turned phone off and back on. Not sure what the problem is.

    See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

  • JS -- XML Question - Can I add attributes using Javascript?

    I want to add an attribute to an element tag, but I don't see how to do it programmatically. Is it possible? Also, is there a way to name an element tag dynamically? For example:
    The way to add a child element is to either use the appendChild method like this:
    XMLObject.appendChild(<childElement/>);
    XMLObject.childElement= "something";
    or just add it like this:
    XMLObject.childElement = "something";
    Right? (Side Question: Is there a difference between these two methods?).
    What I want to do is to either add a dynamic attribute to a statically named child, or to create a dynamically named child.
    I haven't been able to figure this out myself. Any ideas?

    Maybe have a look at Mozilla's E4X tutorial: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/E4X_Tutorial/
    There's no need for eval() here. (There usually isn't.) Use:
    XMLObject.appendChild(<{nameReference}/>);
    To add an attribute, you can just use:
    XMLObject.@new_att = "the value";

  • How Can I add a object to the scene Graph ??

    Hi all!
    I have set up a 3d scene Graph. Now I want to add a object (for example,a cone) to the scene Graph. How can I do ???
    thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    if you want to add your cone to a branchgroup "mainbranchgroup", you have to set mainbranchgroup.setCapability(BranchGroup.ALLOW_CHILDREN_WRITE) while creating this branchgroup (and before compiling the scene).
    Then, when you want to add the cone, you just have to add a child to the mainbranchgroup.
    I hope that helps.

  • Can i assign a child state to a movie clip that is already placed on stage

    Hello
    Is it possible to add a child state to a movie clip that is

    thanks for the help

    "The objects i want it to appear above are loaded swf's onto
    the same main stage."
    Aha, this is where things can get confusing. The terminology
    between the Flash Authoring tool and ActionScript is not
    consistent.
    In ActionScript, the Stage is the top most DisplayObject. You
    probably get that.
    In Flash, the canvas that is often referred to as "the stage"
    is not the Stage object of ActionScript, rather the Flash stage is
    a DisplayObject class called MainTimeline (or if you assign a
    document class, it's that class), which is the first and only child
    of the ActionScript Stage object. It's the only child unless, of
    course, you add something else to the ActionScript Stage object at
    runtime... like a loaded swf. ;)
    So in other words, if you are doing anything like this:
    stage.addChild(myLoadedSWF)
    You are actually putting myLoadedSWF above the MainTimeline
    object, which is the entire Flash timeline. There's nothing wrong
    with that, but in this case it means changing the depth of things
    inside the MainTimeline is not going to change the fact that the
    MainTimeline itself is below myLoadedSWF.
    Most likely the simplest solution is to add your loaded SWFs
    to the property "root", not stage. root can refer to different
    things in different places, but most of the time it refers to the
    MainTimeline, and if I had to guess I would say it almost certainly
    does in your case. Note that the "root" property is typed as a
    DisplayObject, not a DisplayObjectContainer, so addChild (which is
    a DisplayObjectContainer method) will not be recognized unless you
    typecast to DisplayObjectContainer or a subclass of
    DisplayObjectContainer, like Sprite or MovieClip:
    MovieClip(root).addChild(myLoadedSWF)
    Also note that, unlike AS2, in AS3 it's very easy to simply
    add your loaded SWF below existing objects you create in Flash. You
    can use addChildAt(obj,0) for instance to add it to the very
    bottom.

  • Can't add friends in Game Center

    HI!  Our doughter has  iPod touch 5th gen. She has a child Apple ID account which we used to sing in to Game Center. She can use multiplayer option but can't add friends from her contacts. When we go to friends button she gets message: allow iCloud contacts in settings. In restrictions adding friends is allowed and on iCloud contacts are on. Tryed to turn off the iPod several times. Please help!

    I've just realised that before getting your reply, but thanks for the confirmation!
    It's strange how all these people on Facebook say "add me!" but they don't give you their Game Center name and so you can't add them!

  • Can i monitor my childs messages on my own device

    Can I monitor my childs messages on my own device?

    If you go to settings, messages, send and receive than choose add email. Add an email for your kid and only active this email with iMessage on there device. Then go into there restrictions under settings, general and Choose accounts and lock it out. After go on to your device and active the same email on yours under messages. You will also have to choose your device for txt message forwarding from there device so you can receive those silly green txt too. As long as you have there restrictions set up right they can't tamper with it. I use to run something similar at one point.

    thanks for your attention,sorry for the bad english

    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and system full control to this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.

  • Load Rule (Dimension Build) using "Add as Child of"

    I have a dimension file that contains Level0 Members, Aliases and Agg Signs. When I use the Build Method of "Add as Child Of", I appears that I cannot add the Alias in the same Load rule. On the first field, I select the Dimension with no Field Type or Number. On the next field, I select Alias and the Dimension, however, when I put a level number of 0, the load rule does not verify and if I try to leave the Number blank then I I get an error the error message of "You must specify a valid number for this field type".How do you add aliases, properties, etc when using the Dimension build with the build method of "Add as child of" in the same load rule? I cannot find anything in the DBAG.Thanks.....

    As your post seems to indicate, there is no way to do it in one pass. There are a few things that you can't do the way you should be able to - like, say updating two alias tables at once...
