Cannot Create Property On String Javascript
I am writing something in Flash/ AS3, and I came across this problem: ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property txtInput on package.name.DocumentClasss Basically I have a document class, and I can create instances of movieclips clips and compile without issues. But when I put a input text field ("T" icon in the palette) on the stage, and it refuses to compile, with the above error. I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I am writing my ActionScript in FlashDevelop, with compilation done in the Flash IDE. I also have both Strict Mode and Warnings Mode selected under Publish Settings -> Flash -> Script -> Settings... -> Errors. I have searched for solutions to this online, and the only suggestions out there seem to be to not insert the text field on the stag in Flash IDE, and instead dynamically create them in the document class. Is there a better solution?

You can find the declare stage instances setting in the flash tab in your movie properties and clicking on "settings" next to Script: Actionscript 3 selectbox. Personally I always have this uncheck

It is exported for AS with the name of WellcomeMenu, and in the document class I do this: public var _welcome:WellcomeMenu = new WellcomeMenu(); public function MainTest() { _welcome.x = stage.stageWidth * 0.5 _welcome.y = stage.y addChild(_welcome); } All simple stuff. Then I go into the WellcomeMenu movieClip and make a shape with the name Box, then I make it a movieClip too, and give its Instance http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21641027/error-1056-cannot-create-property-on Name the name specialItem. To sum up: I dynamically call a wellcomeMenu movieclip, which contains another movieClip with an instance name of specialItem. Then I compile and get this error: ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property specialItem on WellcomeMenu. at flash.display::Sprite/constructChildren() at flash.display::Sprite() at flash.display::MovieClip() at WellcomeMenu() at MainTest() what am I doing wrong? When I remove its instance name, it shows just fine, but I can't manipulate the movieclip within the WellcomeMenu. actionscript-3 share|improve this question edited Jan 28 at 21:09 Benjamin W. 8,066112043 asked Feb 8 '14 at 2:09 GregorII 131311 try using different instance name. Also, first obtain stage instance and then proceed. –Rajneesh Gaikwad Feb 8 '14 at 2:20 1 ok i found this and made it work stackoverflow.com/questions/1734169/… but before that i was freely doing that without checking the Automatically decleare stage instances , or atleast i think i did ?(didnt pay attention to this ever). can someone explain me what is going on ? –GregorII Feb 8 '14 at 2:24 I tried with many different instance names... nothing changed, and what do you mean by "obtain stage instance and then proceed" –GregorII Feb 8 '14 at 2:25 Anyway your problem was different but I mean to say Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE –Rajneesh Gaikwad Feb 8 '14 at 2:29 auu :D i did even that ... y

These are acceptable as instance properties of your class even if they are not declared within it, by virtue of this checkbox: Like us, you might prefer to declare any such visual instances in the document class file, so you untick this checkbox and enter code such as the following in the class file: /*************************************************** Instance variables ***************************************************/ private var image:MovieClip; You compile the movie and receive the error: ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property image on MyProject The solution to this problem is to be sure that you declare the member as public, not private, in the instance declaration: /*************************************************** Instance variables ***************************************************/ public var image:MovieClip; Your SWF will then compile successfully and you'll be able to reference the asset on the display list.
