I am trying to remove the appropriate display objects so that they don't accumulate in system memory as they are currently doing. However I do not know how to do this. Every time I create a new addChild object by clicking or dragging with the mouse over a grid of buttons these children get added to the display list but the hidden ones remain in memory, thus accumulating memory and running into the problem of Flash Player running out of memory, even in a 64-bit system with lots of memory.
Any suggestions on how to properly do a removeChild or removeChildAt ?
Thanks in advance.
