Today i started working on adding the media content onto the page when the user clicks on one of the buttons on stage.
I didn’t want the program to have to go to a different frame to have the content on screen. I wanted the user to still see the season that they were on in the background. I tried doing this using the addChild method. Although it is quite easy to use at the beginning I had a lot of issues.
What held me back on this was the creating the movie clips own class. I did not realise that to make the movie clips into a variable I had to enable the AS Linkage. Once I had gotten my head around this it still wouldn’t work for me. There was a lot of trial and error for something that now is very easy for me to do.
I got a lot of help just straightening out some kinks on the Republic of Code on the tutorial AS3: The Display List.
