ActionScript 2.0 :: Fire Off A Custom Event On _alpha=0
Jun 20, 2007In my app I fade a movieclip, and when that movieclip reaches _alpha=0, I want it to send out a signal to let another movie clip begin to fade in.
How do I do this? Is it something even remotely like:
Code:
firstMC.on(_alpha==0) = secondMC.beginFade;
???
EDIT: I don't want to put any code on movie clips -- my code all runs from the root/main timeline.
Flex :: Addeventlistener - Add An Event Listender To A Boolean Variable?
Sep 29, 2011I have a boolean variable, projectsLoaded that is set to false when my application loads. As i'm sure you can imagine, when the final project module loads, I set the variable to be true. Is there a way I can trigger a series of functions to run once that variable is set to true?

Feb 20, 2009Running into a problem dispatching a custom event from a parent SWF made in Flex Builder to a child SWF made in Flash CS4 that is loaded at runtime. Namely, whenever the child SWF is dispatched an event, I get a runtime error:
[Code]....
The custom event is defined in a standalone library that both the flex project and the flash project link to staticly. I wanted to go this route so that as I add new types of events, I can rebuild the application and flash swfs and not have to worry about moving .as files around (lets hold off on RSL's until I get this *simple* case worked out).
This error message makes it sound like the application defines a myCustomEvent at compile time, and the flash movie defines its own myCustomEvent when it is published. Then when the application is run, the myCustomEvent dispatched in the application doesn't match the one in the flash swf. Now I thought that application domains were supposed to sort all of this out, where the child uses the parent's definition for any classes that are duplicated. But when I load the child swf and use the current domain in the LoaderContext I still get the same error.

Flex :: Dispatch Custom Event From One Module To Another : Error #1034: Type Coercion Failed?
Mar 23, 2011I am trying to dispatch a custom event from one flex module to another.The code which dispatch the event is as below Application.application.Destination.child.dispatchEvent(
new AlgoEvent(AlgoEvent.GETFROMPARENT_LOCAL_EVENT));
here AlgoEvent is a custom event.on the other side the module which catches and handles the event has this code:
public function sendParametersToChild(e:AlgoEvent):void

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect The Finished Event Listener And Fire Out Another Sets Of Event

ActionScript 3.0 :: Variable Referencing Between Classes And Custom Event?
Nov 5, 2009I finally got the variable referencing between classes and custom event problems sorted out. Now I got a question regarding the Error #2044 and Error #2035. The error reads like this:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
I've put all the swf in the same directory, so I don't think that is the problem. Could it be that my XML file is in another directory that's causing the problem? I also heard having quotes in the URL in the XML file could also be problematic. Is that true? Here are my AS and my XML file.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Event And Variable Parameters Count?
Mar 18, 2010is it possible to create custom event with variable arguments count? I ask this because currently I use anonymous functions on events with variable parameters count to pass arguments to appropriate function, i.e:
Code:
addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, function(evt:MouseEvent):void{mTBGp( pX, pY, l_w, l_h, isDone )}, false, 0, false );
addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, function(evt:MouseEvent):void{mTBGe( pX, pY, l_w, l_h )}, false, 0, false );
and I don't want to do that because of weakReference.
1. From what I know if I set weakReference to true with anonymous function on in addEventListener GarbageCollector will delete them (and indeed I can see that my code stops to work on random, due to GC "kickin in")
2. When i delete my Object with addEventListener( weakReference = false ) the memory used by addEventListener is not freed ( unconfirmed, please elaborate on that subject also)That's why, from My point of view, usage of custom event is best, but unfortunately I use many addEventListeners with variable parameters count so (in above example 2 listeners. one 5 arg, second 4 arg) is there a way to do something like this? To write event that will take x parameters of any type?

Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4 Disptaching Custom Event From Custom Component (why Flex Converting Custom Event To Mouseevent)?
Mar 2, 2012This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 Variable String / Boolean
Nov 9, 2009having an issue with a variable set. It is set as a string to default "no" on the very first frame of my movie, as follows:

myaccess="no";
Within my movie, there is an object. When this object is pressed, it is to change the _root.myaccess="yes"; I am tracing the variable within the movie clip and it shows me: I do not understand why it is changing my string definitition from "no" to false. Because of this, my variable does not seem to change to "yes' on object (button) pressed.

Jan 27, 2011 have movie clips on the stage that I have addressed as buttons[code]...

I have used the exact same script on other objects in the file but with different instance names and they ALL work fine, this is the only one I can't get working. I have tried removing all other scripts to isolate this one but it makes no difference.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Boolean Variable To Control MovieClip
Mar 13, 2008i am trying to assign boolean variables to my script that i have made, basically i have never done it before so i have no idea how to add them to my script. i am controlling movieclips using alpha levels so when a key is pressed it makes a mc =100 and when the key is released it takes the alpha back down to 0. My mc work fine along with the keypresses, its just i need more control over what has already come up.
I want to use the boolean variables so that they control the mc and stop them from playing after a certain amount of times the key is pressed. here is some of my script:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (Key.isDown(65)) {

Aug 18, 2010Instead of this code:
var bomb1:Boolean = false;
var bomb2:Boolean = false;
var bomb3:Boolean = false;
Would it be possible to use an array like this? var bomb:Array = [false,false,false]; Or would it be better in another way? Isn't it necessary to declare the variable/array to be boolean or number if it would be that type in the index? Could I also use an array for the movieclips like bomb[0].visible = true; ? But how di I declare that array?
