Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 Accessing objects properties on the stage from other objects
You have to cast the root property because it's statically typed as a DisplayObject. Because the player/API doesn't know what document class you might use for your root object, it types root as the base class your document class must inherit from. Looking at your code, it seems that you're trying to develop AS3 as if it were AS2. In general, manually traversing the display list using parent or root properties is a sign of bad design. In this case, you're tying your program architecture to your display list architecture -- if you move one thing in your FLA, everything will break. Instead, build your classes in a more object-oriented manner. I don't know what class the snippet you posted is in, but it looks like all you need is property derived from another display object's width. In this case, consider adding a property called "maxWidth" or something similar to the object's constructor, and pass the value in when you create the object. That way you don't need to traverse the display list to find the information you need -- everything is nice and encapsulated.

[Flashcoders] AS3 Accessing objects properties on the stage from other objects
Hi, I have a question regarding referencing objects on the stage from other objects. You should be able to use the root from any object that has been added to the display list using addChild. But when I do so I get this error message: 1119: Access of possibly undefined property loader through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject. The only way for me to do what I want is if I cast the root reference to the class of my document class. For example, if the name of my document class is MyDocumentClass it would be like this: MyDocumentClass( root ).theObjectIWantToAccess.someProperty My questions are: 1. Why do I have to cast the root property? 2. Is this the best way to go around what I want to do. To illustrate what I'm talking about, here's a snippet of code: if( this.inputBubble.x + this.inputBubble.width > PokerHandComp(root).frame_mc.width ) { this.inputBubble.x = x; this.inputBubble.bubble_mc.scaleX = -1; this.inputBubble.txt.x = - this.inputBubble.bubble_mc.width + 20; } In this case my document class is called PokerHandComp.
