ActionScript 3.0 :: Reading A Click Event Even When Its State Is Not Captured; So Not "clicked"?
May 26, 2009
Im working on menu where I need to capture a "holded" mouse click in order to register a second event handler. Only problem is that the click is "on hold", meaning that the mouse button is beeing pressed and "holded" - so its not be catched by Flash's "MouseEvent.CLICK" listener as completed "CLICK".
Is there any workaround to capture this event before its registered as a completed click? - Maybe using the "useCapture" flag of the event handler?

I have an itemRenderer custom component inline of my DataGrid component. I need to have an event fire in the containing class (at the same level as the DataGrid) when the checkbox is checked or unchecked (in the itemRenderer component). How would I do this?

I have a problem and I have potential solution. But I wanted to confirm if there is an easy and simple way to solve my problem.App type:Isometric Game.Problem statement:I am loading images in my flash app and have mouse events attached to them.The images I load are prop images like vehicles, trees, buildings etc., and all of them are transparent.Example: Red ball asset (please ignore the yellow background which I applied to describe the problem)If I click on the actual image area (colored in red), then every thing works perfect.I don't want to trigger mouseevent when I click on empty image part (or transparent area, which I have shown in yellow color)There is one way I know by creating masks in flash. I don't want to do it unless that is the final option left because I load image assets instead of flash assets and I don't want to create a new mask asset for all the assets.There is another method I was going to adopt by using getPixel method of Bitmap.
But there is another problem with this method.I might be able to ignore the click event when I click on the empty part of the asset but if there is some other asset is behind the image in the same location, then I need to process the click event for the occluded image.Well, thinking of solution to this problem takes me to the getObjectsUnderPoint where I can scan the occluded assets

I used the tutorial here: [URL] to achieve the above, which I did. Then I tried putting AS on the buttons I made to import external clips and they stopped working completely. I've tried putting the AS on the main time line as well as on the btn itself, I've even tried recoding the script from the tutorial and have spent hours searching the net but still cant see what I'm doing wrong.
I've attached the file which should work to me. if the btn code is deleted from the main timeline the menu acts as it should but doesn't link any where. Actually I put the file here: [URL]

I would like the native Flex checkBox to change state only, when the box is clicked. If user clicks the label the state shouldn't change.
The click event cannot be muted as it is utilized in parenting components.
how to obtain such functionality? How to detect, that user has clicked the label?

i need to know if there's a way to lock button symbols in a specific state once users click them? i have a series of 34 buttons, and they all contain an animated movieclip in their "over" state. problem is when i click on one, they play the "over" state very briefly again before my event happens, and it looks funky. any way to make it so once u click it, it stays in "down" state? i know using movieclips instead of buttons will resolve the problem but i'd like to know if there's a way to do it without converting them all to movieclips,

I want to have a button with a rollover state that is different that the out state. I got that part, but I also want to keep the rollover state active if clicked. I can think of a couple ways to do it but I'm certain there is an easier way to do it. I have about 8 buttons and when I click on on I want that to stay in the rollover state, then when I click on another one I want the first to go back to the out state and the new one that I clicked to go to the over state and stay there.

I made a Flash menu with this tutorial:[URL]The animation is different but the scripting is basically the same. I have animated buttons (They're actually movie clips though) that play one animation on rollover, and a different animation on rollout.
What I want to do, is have the button stay on the over state if it's clicked, (so people know what page they're on) until another button is clicked in which case it would do the rollout animation, and then the new button would stay clicked.
[URL]
But the scripting is different I'm not sure how to make it work with what I already have, and I don't really want to start over completely.

So i have this bit of code that triggers a bunch of stuff on a buttons over/out/down etc... I also have a variable on the _root time line that declares a clicked variable so i can keep track of the buttons click state. Ok so now the trouble... Im changing my (working) buttons to movieclip buttons to take advantage of the MC properties (ie. goToPlay - etc.. ). But this screws up my working AS and im not sure why? In particular the "if" statement that keeps track of the clicked variable does not seem to be functioning. Is there a problem putting if statement on a MC button? How do i fix this? Here is the code i'm using on my MC button:

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.

Ive got a simple menu that upon hover of each item, plays a movie clip, then on mouse_out it plays the movie clip in reverse. What I'm trying to do is to have a third state (active) that is shown upon clicking. I'm thinking I need to do something along the lines of:
-When clicked, gotoAndStop(5) //Five being the location of my active frame
-Also remove the event listener that triggers the function to play the movie in reverse.
-Then when another menu item is clicked, re-add the event listener to the previous menu item so it's not stuck 'active'
My code is as follows:
// Imports
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

I have only set up an event listener Mouse Input and Keyboard input. How do I set up an event listener for a Boolean's state? I change the Boolean state in other classes using:
main(parent).meVariable == true;
So, how do I set up an event listener in main to jump to a function if that turns to true? something like...
ActionScript Code:
if (myVariable == true){
myFunction();
}
