I ve been searching for this but nothing. I need to use an event generated when the site is loaded for the very first time (to manage the resize of the stage). That's beacuse the event "resizestage" is generated only when i resize it, so the first time the site had been loaded, the size is not modified.

View 2 RepliesI use loader to load in a swf.How do I send a custom event to the loaded swf?
View 1 RepliesI loaded topic1.swf inside the base main.swf.
I dispatched a Custom Event from topic1.swf but its not reflect to main.swf how to do that...?.. is it not possible here... and how to access a public variable/method of topic1.swf from main.swf..
I have a swf that uses a Loader to load in another swf. I want to wait until the child swf is loaded until I display it, so I have an event listener for when it's complete. The problem is that the child swf has its own children, so it comes back as being complete before its children (the grandchildren) are loaded, and therefore is being displayed while things still are popping up.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to make sure that the children of the child are loaded before returning as complete.I was thinking I could add listeners on all the children that then increment a variable until it is equal to an expected number (number of loaders) and then run a function on the parent to display itself, but that seems like a last resort solution.
So I'm trying to build a tool that will allow me and other users to all open the same .swf, and then I as the Admin user am able to interact with mine while they all see my mouse movements and button clicks etc on theirs.I'm using BlazeDS to manage this and I'm getting data sent back and forth etc - no difficulties there. The issue I'm running into is this:
In an "Admin" instance, I click a button. I capture that X and Y, then tell Blaze to tell my clients to dispatch a Click event at that X and Y. On my client side, I get that data and dispatch a Click event at that X and Y - but the click is actually caught at the stage level. The click on my client side takes place UNDER all of my buttons and other content - so the whole thing fails.Is there a way to tell it to start the click event at the top?
I tried trial and error by tracing strings so I could understand the program flow of actionscript(or any similar language in general) but to no avail; I couldn't understand it at this point or maybe it because I didn't eat my breakfast. Please explain to me why the trace statements showed in the output first?
Here's the code of the first Frame
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
trace("I'm in line 3!");

What I'm trying to do is to trigger an event when the stage is loaded; It generates some URL of images and inject them into an array then trace it back.It is very crucial for me to understand the flow, I don't want to move forward without understanding this.
I have an older site that is coded in AS2(I can't get it to AS3 sorry) I found this script online that allows for mouse scrolling. It is in AS3 and I can't figure out what Event replaced in AS2. I'm sure there are much better AS programmers than me that could tell me off the bat. I'm just trying to get this converted to AS2.
var verticalCenter:Number = stage.stageHeight / 2;
var limit:Number = stage.stageHeight - content_mc.height;
var speed:Number = 0.1;

I have a main document class with an eventListener detecting a custom event.
The custom event exists in multiple swfs. Its task is to call a function which will remove a movieclip in the document class.
This is working in the loaded swf, but not in any loaded swf afterward.
Do I need to write the dispatchEvent differently if its trying to send an event that has been sent already?
I hope this isn't too vague without code examples. It would take me quite a while to extract the relevant code.
I've got a loader that I put an event listener on for Event.COMPLETE. I then add it as child of the stage and call the load method. The swf it's loading appears on the stage, but the Event.COMPLETE listener is never called. I can attach a MouseEvent.CLICK event to the loader and that works just fine.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to dynamically load different MovieClips based on user input. Several of those clips have embedded url link symbols. How can I add event listeners to the url links if the dynamically loaded MovieClip does not have an instance name? Seems like I can (right?) apply an instance name when the clip is loading, but the event listener doesn't compile because the name is not there yet, so that seems out.

I've a Flex application which loads a Flash swf via SWF loader; the Flash swf is in AS3. the flash swf has code to dispatchEvent a Text Event
Flash Code:
var re:TextEvent = new TextEvent(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT,true,true);
Flex Code:
<mx:SWFLoader source="menu.swf" id="mnu" complete="menuLoaded(event)" />
private var mySwfMve:MovieClip;
function menuLoaded(event:Event): void {

I don't see any TextEvents being dispatched from Flash. They are not seen in the debug trace.. I can capture enter frame events however.
I'm developing an app that use swf to load elements and add properties to the loaded swf. I use SWFLoader to load the movie and on the COMPLETE event i move the loaded MovieClip to a specific frame and then list its DisplayList. I've discovered that if i traverse the list soon it's note loaded. [code]...
View 1 Repliesi made a SWF which contains a loader which loads any SWF file passed to it... the problem I'm encountering is that for some SWFs, some event listeners doesn't fire anymore... my own SWF file (which contains the loader) doesn't really have any other element except for the Loader object and so I cannot understand what seems to be preventing the loaded SWF (loaded by my Loader) from receiving some mouse events
it seems that the for the SWF where I'm having this problem, the listener seems to be tied up to a location in the stage or somewhere else, and so whenever I resize, the listeners is not responding on the right place, for example, the button appears on a certain position but the listener's hit test or whatever the SWF is using to detect the mouse click is positioned somewhere else
This isn't an exact duplicate of AS3: add event listener to loaded swf, actually it seems to be a mirror situation with non-mirror solution..
I have a test flash file that registers its own listener at first frame's actions.
trace("it's going to be OK");
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, aKey);
Unfortunately neither line works when .swf is loaded into another movie. Assuming that stage object is wrong for such situations, which object should be used to get listener?
Is it necessary to rewrite loader in parent swf, as said in the linked question?
I need an event listener which is global so when every content is loaded a function fires up and function places this content. I've tried
stage.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,function(evt:Event){placeem(evt, "stgW","stgH")});
but that's not right, gives me errors
Can I handle an event inside a loaded swf file(using swf loader) using MATE when my main application fires the event ? i want to make a remote service call based on the data i get from the main applications event , and then populate my loaded swf .
View 1 RepliesMy class is dispatching 2 events. One event is captured by another class, and the second event not.I have 2 classes. Class1 creates an object of Class2 and calls a function to load an xml. When xml is loaded class2 dispatches a Complete event. This event is listened by Class1 and then it calls another function of Class2. When the second function executes completely Class2 dispatches second event. Now the problem starts. Class1 is not able to capture this second event. Whereas while dispatchEvent is called from class2, it return true as a notification that the event is dispatched successfully.
View 6 RepliesI have a loaded swf (CustomClass) and I want to listen a dispatch event from the swf, but it doesn't seems to work. The relation of the dynamic class are:
Code:
tablet(DocClass of the swf) ---> mainmenuC
I'm trying to pass a event to a function in tablet, and have the codes listen to the dispatchEvent from the function in tablet.
ActionScript Code:
CustomClass.addEventListener("profile_home", currentPage)
private function currentPage(event:CustomEvent):void {
trace("profile home clicked")
} tablet.as
[Code] .....
It doesn't return any error, but why does it not pass the data?
this is the code:
on (release) {
_root.istancemovie.loadmovie ("file.swf")
}
but i need that the file.swf was loaded without an event by user, but in automatic.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to create onRollover handlers for movieclips loaded with loadClip. I can attach event handlers to the container clip, but not the child clips within it (the grandchildren). I'm using MX2004 / AS2.The parent clip just doesn't seem to "see" any grandchildren. It doesn't seem to be a paths issue, and I'm working in an onLoadComplete function to make sure everything's loaded first. The goal is to be able to change what happens on rollover with data pulled in (via Flash remoting) to the parent clip.
View 5 Repliesmy code is as follows:
[Code].....
This reads a php file (which in turn reads a database) and returns a series of years that have content hidden behind them. then the years are placed into a dynamic textbox within a movieclip (yearmarker = "yearmarker"+i).
This all works fine. My trouble is i can't figure out how to add an OnRollOver event to each dynamically added clip telling it to go to its second frame.
I have imported 5 images to my mc using "for loop" and have add an event listener for loading complete. I can able to know, in which movie clip it is complete. the code is below:
Code:
for (var a:Number=0; a<arr.length; a++) {
var tmc:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
thumbMc.addChild(tmc);[code]....
Now I need to know is, the name of the image which is loaded for each and every loading.
This has been driving me nuts. The short of it is that I have a main movie that loads smaller swfs. In the main movie, there is a textbox that holds descriptions of the smaller clips.What I am trying to do is this: When the user clicks a button in the loaded swf, a string variable "feedback" replaces the text in the description text in the parent clip.Here is the code I have. I have been searching this for a while now and have tried various things, so this may be way off base. The clips load fine and everything, I just can't figure this one piece out.I am only showing the relevant code because there is a LOT of other working code. If anyone needs more info, let me know.Main Clip
Code:
clipLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.INIT, onLoaderInit );
function onLoaderInit( e:Event ):void {
[code]....
The preloader I usually use executes an addChild(loadedMovie)statement in response to an Event.COMPLETE event from the loaded swf's contentLoaderInfo object (a common approach, I believe.) The problem with this (as many of us know) is that the loaded swf starts running before the Event.COMPLETE event gets thrown, which means that once the child is added, it is already a few frames into its timeline. What I need is a way for the loaded swf not to start playing til its COMPLETE event gets thrown.
