ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Listener Create Complete?
Nov 14, 2010
I generate thumbnail images for an XML file. So I loop through the XML and generate instance of a thumbnail class. These thumbnails are place in a sprite container.The problem I have is that after the loop I print the width of the sprite (in the same function) and it returns 0, even though its full of thumbnails. So I'm trying to add a listener that listeners when the thumbnails have completed being created but I have no idea what kind of listener I need or what to attach it to.

I'm loading an FLV dynamically and Im using netstream to be able to control the video with buttons. I have it doing what it needs to during the movie, but when It reaches the end of the flv, I'd like it to listen for the end and then run a function (predifined--Resets buttons and plays).I've tried different listners with no luck.

ok this seems to look like it should work.. but for some reason the Event.COMPLETE listener for the loader is not getting fired..
does anyone see something that I missed..
i put in trace statements in to see where its not getting to..
I verified this so far..
- the constructor function does appear to add the even listener to the loader.
- Unit3DPreview.load() function gets called (from the parent class) and receives the _path string properly..
- the loader does have an Event.COMPLETE listener at the time of the loader.load() call..
- the renderAnimation listener function never gets fired off.. even though the listener has been added..
there is no IO error.. the image is in the correct location.. I know this because if I remove it .. I get an IO error..
one thing is that there is an instance of this class already placed inside a library symbol that is associated to another class that passes a bunch of data .. the preview image path being one part of it.
not sure if having it be already existing vs me creating it via code would make a difference .. that is something I have not tried yet.

I'm having problems accessing a Event.COMPLETE listener for loading a php file:
Code:
function prepareD(){
//more code before
var hsloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code]....
What is happening is I'm creating a new URLloader, then loading the php, and I create a Event.COMPLETE listener, but when the load completes (I've tested with navigateToURL), the listener doesn't trigger. I've also tried putting the var before functions, but it doesn't work either...

I am trying to create an event listener to check that a function has completed before the next action is run. In simple terms I have a module that is opened and closed via two functions... module_open() and module_close().Each function has tween elements that must complete before the next element is processed... i.e the next function, etc.This is the code I have ( have attempted to create an event listener but I seem doing something wrong. I am not even sure that it is possible to create an event listener that checks for a function finishing before calling the next function.
Code:
function onAbout(event:Event):void {
module_close()
module_close.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onClose_Complete);

when handling data, i always have to write the following:
var dataSourceRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("/path/file.xml");
var dataSourceLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(dataSourceRequest);
dataSourceLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleDataSource);
while i can understand the usefulness of these 2 objects and event listener being separate, since they often work with each other i'd like to know if there is a method that will combine them all? the closest i can get is this, but it's a bit pointless/nesting:
var dataSourceLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("/path/file.xml"));
dataSourceLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleDataSource);
what i'd really love would be something that automatically combines the URLRequest, URLLoader and completed event listener like this:
var dataSource:Whatever = new Whatever("/path/file.xml", handleDataSource);

Im trying to get the grasp of classes and as3 and i got probably an easy question for someone with good as3 knowledge.Lets say i got a main.as and a class URLLoad.as that loads some external vars. In the URLLoad class i got a event.complete listener. So i know when the vars are finnished loading and everything works fine. But how do i know it has finnished loading the vars if i try to reach them from main.as file??? Whats the routine for doing this? Is it better to remove the event.complete listener to main.as file?

I have made four complete flash sites and I m about to create the fifth one, but every time I start creating a new one I get into a debate myself on what would be the better way to create the site with all its different sections (home, contact, about, etc... ). Should I create all sections in one .swf file or shoud I create .swf files for each section and load them as needed?

I am loading in binary files with the url class which can be quite large 10mb + and it works fine on my server but another server I am testing on it can sometimes not work. Sometimes it will not load the file and other times it will only load about 20% and it throw a complete event??? Then of course other times it works fine. This server is https maybe that has something to do this it?

Is it always best practice to remove every listener that you create in a project?I thought I had this worked out but all of a sudden I am getting errors by trying to use the removed from stage listener.So there are buttons on the stage and some movieclips that those buttons make visible and here is the code that I am trying to use, but it generates errors on leaving the frame. I think this is the same as what I have been using but somehow it is now not working for me.[code]...

i want to keep track of what frame the current flash movie is on. I've come across "_currentFrame" so i guess that's a step in the right direction. What i need though is a listener which will always give me the current frame.
What i am doing is having director MX 2004 call a frame via a label in flash and then i want to load on image based on what frame number it calls.
so i reason something like...
if ( _currentframe == 4 )
{
// display picture in pictArray[3] from xml
}

My problem is: I'm trying to create an external class which function is load an external sound file and play or stop depends on stage.activate and stage.deactivate events. The actionscript 3 in the timeline is functioning properly, but when I try to create as external class, it has so many errors. So many that I can't troubleshoot them. Btw, it's my first class creation. Is there anybody who kindly enough to give me some guidance to create a proper class with stage event listener?

I have a set of thumbnails in a "gallery" class calling a "feature" class that's presents/displays the associated content.
I'm stuck with a runtime problem where I have a thumbnail button calling a "feature" class. This "feature" class contains a function with an instance of a button listener. So everytime I call this function it creates a duplicate instance of this listener. - BAD
I would like to move this addListener instance out of the function in the "feature" class so it doens't multiply instances every time it's called by the thumbnail.
However, when I take the listener instance and it's function included out of the function in the "feature" class being called it can't access other functions in the "feature" class.
Is there a simple way around this so I can have button listeners in a class but not added every time the containing class is being called? Should I have these buttons in a separate class that just extends from the "feature" class?

Here's what I have been trying so far...to no avail.

I'm trying to dispatch a custom event. So that my main document class can react when a nav button is clicked.I have a navbutton class which creates the dispatch's the event... and is handled by the onNavigate Method...
private function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
//trace(_label.text + ": path = " + _projectNode.@path);
//trace(evt.target._label.text);[code]....
This onNavigate method works perfectly.... however when I try to create a listener in my main document class I don't "hear" the event.Here's part of the code from the main doc class...here's where I register the listener
this.addEventListener("NAVIGATE", doSomething);
here's where I should handle it...
private function doSomething(e:Event) {
trace(e.target.name);
trace(e.target._label.text);

Can I create a single event listener for all mouse events ?
my understanding is no because: what's happening is that each listener is checking for a string in an event and comparing it for a match against a list which is the listener.

The fastforward and rewind buttons on the FLV Playback components don't work like normal ones. If you've tried to use them you'll notice that they respond to a click event rather than a mouse_down event.
By taking apart one of the skins I've found that the fast forward movie clip is forward_mc.
How do I create an event listener for the buttons inside the FLV Playback Component?
If the instance of my FLV Playback component is called "movie," how do I access it? I've tried this, but it doesn't work:
