ActionScript 3.0 :: Applying EventListener To All Objects Of MovieClip
Nov 5, 2010
How do I apply EventListener function to all objects of a MovieClip from the main Timeline?I have ball_1, ball_2.. ball_10 objects of movieClip Ball of class Ball. Is there any way I can add EventListener to all of them in a single line? Will there be a increase in performance?I have tried EventListener from inside the MovieClip , but for my purpose I need to use it from Main timeLine? or is it possible with Classes?

how to group objects together so that you can change their parimeters all at once. Like if I have a 7 boxes on screen with the instance name box1, box2, ect..... and i wanted to do change them via action script, like make them all partailly invisible when an event happens. How would I do that. I've tried stuff like
box = ["_root.red", "_root.blue"];
box._rotation = 40;
and
box = [_root.red, _root.blue];

I have a large amount of btn's that load full size images when clicked. I simply want to add a filter, scaleX and scaleY to each of those buttons and I know there is a better method then typing each btn name with an eventListener for the Mouse_Over and Mouse_Out events. I understand that I need to create a variable of a new filter and then apply it to the display object. Like so..
var glow:GlowFilter = new GlowFilter(0x0066FF, 1, 10, 10);function hover(event:MouseEvent):void{ pic1_btn.filter = new Array(glow); pic1_btn.scaleX = 1.02; pic1_btn.scaleY = 1.02;}pic1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hover);[code].....
So if I were to continue this, I would have to type out pic1_btn, pic2_btn, pic3_btn and so on to apply a filter to each object and also type out the object name for each listener.

I have two classes ( shown below after problem description), the InteractiveStrategy and Filters classes. The class InteractiveStrategy is the main class definition. In there I declare and instantiate two variables, updateData and filters. I also display the lists mqList and sqList. In the Filters class I have two methods, MainQuestions() and SubQuestions(mq:int). The method MainQuestions() populates a list mqList with the main-questions and SubQuestion populates list sqList with the sub-questions. This means each main-question has a set of sub-questions associated with it.
Thus whenever the main-question (via mqList) changes, the set of sub-questions must change also. My attempt at accomplishing the above is shown in the skeleton code below.The MainQuestions() method dispatches an event called 'mqChanged' while the filter.MainQuestions() listens for the event. However I have no idea of how to execute filter.SubQuestions(mainQuestion) with the newly selected mainQuestion so as to display the new set of sub-questions.
public class InteractiveStrategy{
public var updateData:UpdateData;
public var filter:ArrayFilter;
public var mainQuestion:int=0;
public function InteractiveStrategy(){

I know it is possible to make instances/children interact with other objects by adding an eventListener to each child/instance.But how do you make a random instance/child interact with another random instance/child?Example: let a bunch of spaceships get damaged by a bulletrain by using addChild to place both spaceships and bullets on the stage.

Applying tint to movieclip is just changing the color transformation of movieclip.
The easiest way is the Color class of fl.motion package.Just make the object of Color class, call setTint function and assign the object to movieClip.transfrom.colorTransform just find the attachment and do yourself. Cheers

I'm a very competent PHP/AS coder, but I can't seem to find a way to solve this problem. Can it be done? Possible ways I've theorised (but not been able to put into practice yet):
1) Loading AS script from external text file, much like loading CSS, or JS in HTML.
2) Writing AS to a movieclip as it is created on the fly.

I asked some flashers to take a look at my problem, but they did not know what happed or why it happend.If you apply a color to a movieclip within a timeline, you also destroy the animation so it seems.I enclosed the fla file for test purpuse. But what i am doing is:I have a main clip called animation and in this clip the playhead goes from frame 1 to 30Inside this animationclip i have a square called myclip that also does some animation.But when you apply a color to this square and you run the animationclip, you will notice thatthe square does not animate anymore. But the playhead still runs, so that is weird isn't itDoes anyone know the answer to this bug ?
The code i used is:
function applyColor(mc:MovieClip, col:Number) {
var tempColor:Color = new Color(mc);

I have the following code on frame1 of my movie that I want to apply to multiple instances of the same movie clip:
mainClip_mc.subClip1_mc.specifiedClip_mc.onPress = function () {
//code begins
SpecifiedClip_mc exists in subClip1 through 4. Is there a way to do this once without having to say:
mainClip_mc.subClip2_mc.specifiedClip_mc.onPress = function () {
//same code
mainClip_mc.subClip3_mc.specifiedClip_mc.onPress = function () {
//same code
mainClip_mc.subClip4_mc.specifiedClip_mc.onPress = function () {
//same code
Essentially, specifiedClip_mc's parent clip is what's throwing me here. The code to be applied to specifiedClip_mc is identical and I'm not going the correct route by doing this the long repetitive way.

I have 3 movie clips (MC's) on the stage. The instance names of these objects are in an array:
var navItems:Array = new Array("nav1_mc", "nav2_mc",
"nav3_mc");
I want to loop thru these movie clips and modify them with the following:
for each (var item:String in navItems) {
item.anyMethod = asdf;
}
If I trace item at this point, I get the correct string name that matches the MC, but it won't let me do this kind of operation at compile time. It throws a "1061: Call to a possibly unidentified method ..."
How to get at a MovieClip using only a string of its name at runtime?

As the title suggests i want to apply physics (gravity mainly) to a line drawn with the curser using the createEmptyMovieClip method.Below is the code in the main frame (sorry its a bit long), what I'm trying to do is make something like crayon physics (i know it will be difficult).So far i can draw lines and make certain objects ( a ball for example) be affected by gravity, but when I try to make the drawn lines be affected by gravity it stuffs up.he first line drawn is produced in the wrong position, (it should be at mouse point but isn't) and you can't draw any subsequent lines. This problem doesnt exist when i remove the gravityBasically what i want is that each line that is drawn can have actions assigned to it... (so i can add gravity and unique properties for different line types)
//force settings
//Drawing tools
_global.general = 0x0000FF;

I have a MovieClip that consists of multiple layers, one of those layers is an animated background Shape. let's call this MyMovieClip with the background shape have the instance name "mcBackground";
I'm adding the MovieClip to the stage from ActionScript by:
var myMovieClip = new MyMovieClip();
addChild(myMovieClip);
This works fine and when the movie clip is added to the stage it plays as expected (background is moving).
The problem is when I try to apply a colorTransform to the background shape, it stops from moving. what I'm doing is this inside the MyMovieClip class:

I want to have a class(Generator) generating MovieClips and inside these Clips are buttons with Listeners. Another class(Main) can get the Clips generated and add them to the stage. The problem is if I add the Listener to the Button in the Generator class, i don't get the event. I do get the Event if I get the Button from the Generator and add the Listener in the Main class.

I'm trying to create a cutom made clickablle field using AS3 but I have problem registering an OnClickListener.What I do is create a subclass of MovieClip, draw a RoundRect on it and add a textfield as a child. Now when I click on that "thing", events are caught by the textField and I can't find a way to forward it to my MovieClip.
private function addListChild(i:Number, l:Number, c:Content):void {
var x:Number = 100;

I'm trying to create a fairly simple website entirely in flash. I have navigation on the left (Home, and Shapes) and when you click on Shapes, two things change: my main content called mcContent (which is a movieClip) changes to its second frame (called shapes) and you see a few shapes. Below the main content is another movieclip called mcBottom which does something similar, goes to it's second frame (called shapes) and you see two shapes, a red and green square.The problem is that I want the user to be able to click the red square and have the red square movieclip called mcRed go to it's second frame (called mcRedContent) but it doesn't work. I believe it has something to do with the hierarchy of my objects but I can't seem to figure it out. The error that I get when compiling is:Code:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at trouble_fla::mcBottom_4/frame1()Here is a link to the fla:

Quick question (I hope) I am switching from as2 to as3.
In as2 I could create a movieClip and give it an eventlistener type functionality and function like so:
myDynamiclyCreatedMc.onEnterFrame = function ()
{
// do stuff
}
How do you do the same thing in as3?

I'm working with a main .swf and several external .swfs that are loaded into the main timeline via a movieclip. Is it possible to add an eventListener in a main .swf's timeline that listens for when the external .swf reaches its last frame? What I would like to do is when the external .swf reaches its last frame, the next button on the main .swf's timeline would add the [glow] filter to the next button.

I'm pretty new to AS3 and am getting my feet wet as fast as I can. Currently I have a fairly simple thing I'm trying wherein I will have a button_mc that on ROLL_OVER, it triggers a function that will make another MC move. That part I can do- my question though is how can I have multiple button/movieclip "sets" that are able to call the same function? As an example, I'd have "button1_mc" trigger "shape1_mc", "button2_mc" trigger "shape2_mc", and so on. I want to avoid having to have separate sets of functions for each button/movieclip pair. I hope that makes sense.
Here's where I'm currently at with the first eventListener and corresponding function. You can see how in the function I have a specific MC (shape1_mc) named, which of course I'm trying to avoid, as I will likely have 5-10 similar buton/mc pairs like below. Is there a way to call the movieclip (shape1_mc) in the event handler itself without having to name it in the function?
