Problem Description
Hi,

I built a scene in cocos studio. This scene has two layers: background and ui. In ui layer, I have a progress bar and I just want to access it.

I did the following.

var mainscene = css.load(res.MainScene_json);

this.addChild(mainscene.node);

var uiLayer = mainscene.getChildByName(“loadingUi_layer”);

var progressBar = uiLayer.getChildByName(“loadingBar”);

progressBar.setPercent(10);

When I run this code on simulator, all I got is a black screen. However if commented out those 3 lines after this.addChild(mainscene.node), then the it will display the entire scene..

Baffled and confused..

Try commenting out one line at a time so we can figure out the root cause.

Yep I did that, the only way it would work if I completely commented out all 3 lines. Also, how do you set up remote debugging for xcode with firefox ? I came across a link but it’s in obj C, and outdated. Help please :) Thanks a lot for your help so far.

This is the json for mainscene.. I’m using the latest version of cocos studio and cocos2dx

A lot of features don’t work anymore because they have been disabled. Have you tried loading in just a simple button using our Cocos API Guide

You mean just create it from scratch using code instead of cocos studio ?

Honestly that would be best, wait until the studio and creator mature then use it.

Thanks for your advice.

I guess we will stick to cocos2d-x only..
