Ok, this may be a first. I'm going to go ahead and answer my own posting
with a solution I found from a long time ago.
Here you go Jay :-)
This is the solution:
/* will result in recursive listing of all objects within all objects */
_global.traceObjects = function (obj, recursive, restrictTo) {
// potential restrictTo's include:
//
movieclip,number,boolean,string,undefined,object,function,null;
//
for (item in obj) {
var objDepth = obj.getDepth();
var objHeight = obj[item]._height;
if (restrictTo.length>0 && typeof (obj[item]) ==
restrictTo) {
// traceResults+="Found: "+typeof (obj[item])+"
"+item+" at depth "+objDepth+"\n";
traceResults+=typeof (obj[item])+"
"+obj+"."+item+" height = "+objHeight+"\n";
}
if (restrictTo.length<1) {
// traceResults+="Found: "+typeof (obj[item])+"
"+item+" at depth "+objDepth+"\n";
traceResults+=typeof (obj[item])+"
"+obj+"."+item+" height = "+objHeight+"\n";
}
if (recursive == "true") {
traceObjects(obj[item], restrictTo);
}
}
return traceResults;
};

Subject: [Flashcoders] Recursive Loop showing all items
Hello,
Can anyone provide with a recursive loop that loops through every mc and
further loops through every child mc's listing every movieclip, string,
object etc along the way?
I know such code is out there and rather than recreate the wheel I
thought I'd tap the experts on it.
What sayeth the group?
I had received a response to this previously, however, just the a blank
stage with the Macromedia standard scrollBar component dragged onto it
would result in the error: 256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one
action list. This is probably an infinite loop. Further execution of
actions has been disabled in this movie.
So I'm guessing there's a break feature missing in the code somewhere.
