ActionScript 3.0 :: Click Event On Child MovieClip?
Jul 28, 2010
I have created a movieclip called allbuttons.swf, inside this movie i've created some movieclips by hand (button1,button2 etc..)Through the loader class (in combination with) URLRequest i managed to load the swf inside menuholder.swf but i keep getting stuck on how to manage events on buttons/movieclips inside allbuttons.swfI want to make the buttons/movieclips in side the loaded movie (child) clickable.. but i mange to fail everytime.. i litterly tried everything..- place the eventlistener in the child movie- place the eventlistener in the parent movie- adding an eventlistener to the loaded swf and tyring to catch e.currentTarget..nothing works, i don't see what i am doing wrong, probably learned some basic stuff wrong.

Is there any way to detect if the user click outside a MovieClip?For instance, I need to detect it to close a previously opened menu (like Menu bar style: File, Edition, Tools, Help, etc). How can I detect this kind of event?

I have a movieclip with 2 layers (a background layer, and a text box layer), and i have an eventListener for clicking on it. The only problem is the function i call when clicking the MC only works when i click the background, if i click where the text box is in the MC the function doesnt get called?
Is there any way to treat the entire MC as a single entity rather than a layered one, or is there a way to specify which layer is to be clicked, and i can just add an invisible hit rectangle on a new layer in the MC.

I have created event listeners for a particular movieclip.Insidet this movieclip there is so many objects.When ever I click on the parent movieclip the event listener calls the function for the child object. I had tried removeEventLIstener()
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var info:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
info.graphics.beginFill(0x000000,0.35);

I have a movieclip that constantly changes it's shape and has a rollover event for a popup.But due to the rollover event, I can't click anywhere underneath it, because it receives the click event (i have no onRelease function for it).Is there any code that can ignore the clicking events and keep the rollover event? Or do I have to write a custom function that calculates the actual position.

I have a MovieClip of an bicycle, and I've attached and event listener for mouse clicks on that movieclip. The mouse clicks events are raised when I click on the bike, but I really want to be able to click somewhere in the entire region of the movieclip's rect (to make it easier for the audience this is for to be able to click).

I am loading a set of thumbnail images from an array [hard coded] into a movieclip symbol on the stage. I have two arrays with the thumbnail and the full size image having the same index number. In many examples, "event.currentTarget.contentLoaderInfo.url" returns the full path to the image selected. i just want the index number. Adobe does not make is easy to figure out what other properties are available to me from the contentLoaderInfo. Is 'SelectedIndex' or something like that available? Where does an inspiring AS programmer find the contentLoaderInfo properties and or methods available? Is url the only thing that us usable here?
var thumbnails:Array = ["tn_2010OpenHouse_00.jpg","tn_2010OpenHouse_01.jpg"];
var images:Array = ["2010OpenHouse_00.jpg","2010OpenHouse_01.jpg"];
var thumbX:Number = 10;
var thumbY:Number = 623;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("images/" + images[0]));
addChild(loader);
loadThumbs();
[Code] .....
Output:
Index= -1
Index= -1

I'm trying to create a little game in with AS2 that makes the user hit targets. When a target has been hit, the scores amend accordingly (1 point is added to the score). Some of these targets are static, so I have made them buttons. Others are supposed to be moving around the stage, so they're movie clips. Now, with the buttons, my script works beautifully: The scores amend every time I release the button, just as I want them to. I have tried making the movie clips perform the same actions and have succeeded partly, BUT:
1) When I click on a movie clip, the scores will amend only once (i.e. the first time I click on the clip). No matter how many more times I consecutively click on it, nothing happens. It only changes the scores again when I click on another button or other item on the stage and then go back and click on the mc. But I want the movie clip to react the same as the buttons, i.e. add 1 point every time I click on it. (Consecutive clicks = points added consecutively according to number of clicks)
2) When I try to go from the button to the movie clip and then back to the button, the scores should amend automatically with EVERY click. But what happens is, for instance: I click on the movie clip and +1 is added to the score. Then I click on a button - and actually, what it should do is add another +1 as soon as I go and click on that button. But it doesn't. It does not react when I switch from clicking on mc to clicking on button. After having clicked on the mc, I have to click on the button *two* times in order to make it work, because it will not react upon the first click.

i have a parent movieclip mcA and i want to add another movieclip mcB (child movieclip) inside mcA such that the extra part of mcB is hidden. The size of movieclip remains same as of mcA
For ex:-
mcA = 300x300
mcB = 400x400
then only 300x300 of mcB movieclip is visible and rest of the part is hidden.

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.

I have these buttons in a movie clip and I would like to have only one event listener for the parent, using event.target to point to the children. I have also tried event.currentTarget, and it didn't work.here is the code that works:
test01.abtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.bbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.cbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);[code]....
It is only targeting the movie clip, not the buttons inside the movie clip.

I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

I'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

I have a parent sprite that contains several child sprites. I have attached mouse click and mouse down event amongst others to the parent sprite. And in the listeners I check which child has been targeted using the "event.target" property. However It seems that the mouse click event does not trigger for some reason. Is it possible that the mouse down event is eating up the click event. Is this a know issue in as3 and is there a possible workaround?

I am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.

If anyone has come across this problem or is educated enough so that you may come up with a working solution then please post here. Okay so at the moment I have 2 swfs. One swf is the main swf, which contains a class called Avatar. This class extends Sprite and has 1 child, which is a bitmap image.
What I do is load the child swf into the main swf, create an object of the Avatar class and pass the Avatar object down to the child swf. The child swf takes this object and adds it to a Sprite object as one of it's children. Then I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK to the Sprite object (the one containing the Avatar sprite) that is in the child swf.
Now when I go to click the Avatar bitmap inside the Sprite inside the child swf. The mouse click event does not fire.

I am going through simple tutorial that adds children of a pages upon a button click. The program runs fine but I keep getting this error when one of the buttons are clicked. The buttons were duplicated and have individual names and instance names. But one button keeps throwing the error:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

Following is the code, the library contains 3 pages named StartPage, MidPage, FinalPage and 3 Buttons called NextButton, LastButton, and ReturnButton:
