Stage shifts when using addChild?
- by josh
I'm having a very odd bug with ActionScript 3 in Flash CS4. I am adding movie clips to a stage in a for loop and then moving them out of view so that I can pull them in and remove them when I need them.
I've narrowed down the issue to a point that I know that every time one of the movie clips are added to the stage using addChild(), the stage shifts to the right by one pixel. I know that sounds odd, but it's literally true... the 0 line on the y axis is shifted to the right one pixel every time the movie clip is added. I have no idea how this could be happening.
Here's the code that is doing the work:
private function setupSlides():void
{
for(x = 0; x < TOTAL_SLIDES; x++)
{
var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName("Slide" + (x+1)) as Class;
var s:MovieClip = new ClassReference() as MovieClip;
s.x = 9999;
s.y = 9999;
addChild(s);
slides[x] = s;
}
}
Any thoughts?
