Why can't I loop through an event object that is handed as an argument to a handler function?
ActionScript Code:
myObject.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, myMouseEvent)
function myMouseEvent (event:MouseEvent){
trace ('event is ' + typeof (event));
[Code]......
The event argument is classed as an 'object' but it doesn't seem to act like an object...
Im just trying to add an event listener to all of the objects in an array I have posted my error and the code below.
error:
TypeError: Error #1006: addEventListener is not a function.
code:
mainMenuArray = new Array([introButton], [photographyButton], [graphicsButton], [contactsButton], [projectsButton], [linksButton]);
private function firstMenuListeners()

why my function "replicaLoop" doesn't run?? I'm sure the function will work but it's not running
var replicaConnection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
replicaConnection.connect(null);
var replicaStream:NetStream = new NetStream(replicaConnection);
replicaStream.play("replica.flv");
var replicaListener:Object = new Object();

I am trying to find a workaround to the problem of looping mp3 files, basically the silence in the transition (from end to start). I could use wav files but I need to load the file externally, which makes not possible to use wav. So I did this
HTML Code:
var channel:SoundChannel = myMp3.play();
channel. addEventListener (Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onComplete);
[Code]....
Edit: Now I know it is not a problem of flash, it is problem of the mp3 format itself.
I have a picture of a van moving on its x and y in relation to the mouse movement on screen..
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mouseMovement);
function mouseMovement(e:MouseEvent):void{
van.x = (mouseX/20) + 490;
van.y = (mouseY/20) + 285;

Lets, say I need to show loop for object with different instance. Is it possible ?
var myObj1:Sprite=new Sprite();
var myObj2:Sprite=new Sprite();
var myObj3:Sprite=new Sprite();
For exmple in php you can do this

But how can i get keys at the same time as in php so that i now that key1 is referencing val1
Is there any method to looping through instances of an object that are present on the stage/(or in a given container)?For the moment, I am creating a dice program (which allows the user to generate different dice) and I want to be able to roll all the dice at the click of a button.Right now the dice are added to a dynamic list, but I wanted to be able to loop through the "Dice" class instances on the stage so I didn't have to keep track of instance names or removing/adding/updating an array of the instances.
View 2 RepliesI have an object that I'm creating as such:

i load this data from an xml and need to place the images in stage according to details given.i convert the xml to an object so its convenient.
now i need to loop through this data (properties of the pic object) and load each image and set their properties.
how to loop through the properties as there can be any number of them. here you get 3 (clips0,texts1,clips2)..
Actionscript 3.0 looping through stage and DisplayObject items. I'm trying to convert to Actionscript 3.0 and I'm trying to find out how to loop through Stage objects as well as DisplayObject.
With AS 2.0 - I would only have to do:
for(var i in _root) // or MovieClip, this, etc { trace("i: " + i + " [i]: " + _root.[i]);}
In AS 3.0 I found this equivalent which works w/ some objects:
public function debug_object(o:Object, show_all:Boolean):void {
import flash.utils.*; var def:XML = describeType(o);
var props:XMLList = def..variable.@name; if(show_all)
props += def..accessor.@name;
for each (var prop:String in props) {
trace(prop + ": " + o[prop]); }}
this.showChildren(Stage);
This kind of works but the o[prop] always traces undefined and it's not showing any movieClips on the stage. I would like to be able to have the debug object function be able to take Stage and DisplayObject arguments like such:
this.debug_object(Stage, true);
this.debug_object(flash.display.DisplayObject, true);
I have a dynamic class that I have created
public dynamic class SiteZoneFileUploadVO
{
public var destination:String = "sitezone";[code]...........
when I try to iterate over this object's property names it only iterates the dynamically added properties.
parameters.dynVar= "value";
for(var name:String in parameters)
{
Even though the object has all the properties equal to a value (ive checked this in the debugger) the only property name that will be traced is dynVar.How can I iterate over all the property names and not just the dynamically added ones?
I'm currently trying to load images and a few other nodes from an xml file.Once the xml file is loaded i determine the number of nodes in the file...create a loop which assigns each node into an array. My intentions are to create a image gallery which loads a dynamic amount of images. My problem now is i cannot figure out how to loop the loader component. Heres my code so far - (i'm thinking an object might work but not sure how to implement it)
Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
var xmlUrl:String = "slides.xml";

I've attached a zip with a few custom classes and a .FLA. Ignore the custom classes. I'm getting repeated
"Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Environment_fla::MainTimeline/hitTest()".
I understand that this error means I'm asking it to reference something that's no longer there. How better to hitTest many objects in an array. My game involves creating a bunch of balls that will fall into buckets. I need to keep track of how many touched the buckets, how many fell off the screen, and remove each accordingly.
Here is the code from my main FLA
ActionScript Code:
var ballTimer:Timer = new Timer(200);
var changeTimer:Timer = new Timer(50000);
ballTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, throwBall, false, 0, true);
ballTimer.start();
changeTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, changeColor);
changeTimer.start();

I'm trying to loop through each of the arrays stored in a Shared Object and place the individual array items inside rows of textfields. This isn't quite working - it fills all the text fields with the last data array only:
Code:
var elemSharedObject:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("elementChoices", "/");
//Load data into fields
for (var prop in elemSharedObject.data) {
[Code]....
I need a way to increment "elemSharedObject.data[prop]" after it's filled each successive row of textfields.
How to trigger a custom jQuery event from Flash, passing some data through event object?
View 2 RepliesWhen I use MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT the target is [object MovieClip], but when I use MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT I get [object Bildspel] - and Bildspel is my class. The thing is that when I use ROLL_OUT I'm not able to delete the targets ENTER_FRAME event.

Alright, I've looked online at a bunch of different collision tutorials but they don't explain what I'm looking for. I want object A to hit object B and then execute a function via to a Event listener.
View 1 RepliesI want to listen for a custom event dispatched from the document class in a custom subclass. For example, let's say in the document class I have:
ActionScript Code:[code]....
So that the subclass will trace 'Event from document class received' when the 'customEvent' event from the document class is listened by the eventlistener. However, the output is only 'customEvent dispatched', meaning it wasn't heard in the subclass.
The issue I am running across is this: I encoded and embedded a movie clip to act as the background. There are other animations that can and will loop, as the movie resets itself. But there are some elements that I only want to run once and not repeat once the embedded movie loops (link introductions, where objects fly in and transition into the button). How can I set the one time animations to fire just once, while keeping the embedded animation on a loop?

what appens when I add an Event Listener to Object Event?
Following the logic with the display list in AS3, I thought only Classes who inherit flash.display.InteractiveObject could react from events coming from mouses (or keyboard).
im looking for a way to add an PropertyChangeEvent to an object that I have defined. The goal is to raise a change event when any of the property of the object is been changed.
so i can do something like the following
var newItem:MyObject = new MyObject();
newItem.addEventListener(event.PropertyChangeEvent, myO_PropertyChangeHandler);

View 3 RepliesI have created a new class, that is basicly just a movieclip but with a builtin eventlistener. When I add a few instances of this class to the stage, they all have the eventlistener. But later on when i remove the intances from the stage and null the references, Will the eventlistener still exist or will it be removed by the GC ?
View 2 RepliesI have two sprite object and they direct to same event like follows:

When click spirt1 or sprite2,it will call mouseEventHandler function,my question is how to determine which sprite is click in mouseEventHandler function,sprite1 or sprite?
