AS3 removing MovieClips in an array

Question

Anybody any ideas on how to remove children from stage using AS3 if I store the reference to the objects in an array and they exist in different locations i.e they are not all children of the same parent?

SomeArray.push(this);

Answer 1

Consider this :

• Iterate over each of the clips & their children.
• Match the reference name/ID (I hope its a unique one).
• Use removeChild to remove the display object(Sprite,MC,etc).
• keep popping off the last reference off the array as you keep getting matches.

Answer 2

for each(var mc:MovieClip in SomeArray){
    mc.parent.removeChild(mc);
}
