function to killChildTweensOf of all children and their children and their children... etc?

[martis]

Hi guys,

 

I have a scenario where I have many MovieClips with many children, that have children, etc...

 

 

I am looking for a way (most likely a function) that I can pass a MovieClip to and have it killChildTweensOf of all its children, and their children and their children etc....

 

I know killAll exists, but I have other tweens happening that I want to continue.

 

Has anyone created a function that could loop through a MC and all its children, and their children and killChildTweensOf until there are no more children?

 

Thanks in advance!

Are you saying that TweenMax.killChildTweensOf() doesn't give you what you want?

To be clear...

 

I have MC A, B, C

 

C is inside of B which is inside of A

 

If I do TweenMax.killChildTweensOf(A, true) it should only stop tweens for B, not C? Or will it go down the nested display list and kill B and C?

 

If not, I wrote this little function which seems to work

// Loop through and kill tweens of all children
		private function killChildTweensOf( mc : *) : void{
			
			if(mc is DisplayObjectContainer) {
				
				TweenMax.killChildTweensOf(mc, true);
				
				for(var i:uint = 0; i < mc.numChildren; i++) {
					var child : * = mc.getChildAt(i);
					
						killChildTweensOf(child);
					
				}
				
			}
		}

Yep, I'm pretty sure the function already does exactly what you're asking for. You shouldn't need to write a different function like that at all. Let me know if you have reason to believe otherwise.
