ActionScript 3.0 :: Registering An Event Listener To A Tween In An External Class?
Feb 6, 2009
I am using an external 'Animation' class to handle all animations in a project. I would like to register event listeners to listen for tween completion - how do I go about this?
function in Animation class:
Code:
public function SlideOut(target, tx){
var slideTween: TweenMax = new TweenMax(target,.5,{x: tx,y:0,ease:Back.easeIn});
}
[Code].....
Obviously, mySlide.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, transitionComplete) doesn't work. I've tried including the name of the instance of tween too but no dice. I could write my own event within the animation class and dispatch it via another function but there must be a more elegant solution?

What I want to happen is, user clicks button, button slides across screen, when the slide is finished frame 2 is displayed. I am getting an Output of:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

My stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.

Here's how I'd like events to unfold:when the first image is completely downloaded, fade it up and start the timer After 5 seconds, pause the timer and completely download the next image. Fade it up and start the timer again Remove the previous image from the stage
I set my fade's alpha to .5 to see if the previous image was being removed, and it was not. What is wrong with my syntax?

I've done a class to be able to listen to the event for a CLASS not on an instance.
Code:
class net.webbymx.events.XClassEventListener {[code]....
why did I do this.It cames with my rugby game.I have player in two teams. When a player throw the ball I want the other teammate to act like "wait for ball" and the opponent like "seek for ball". Plus I'm lazy (and I don't want to register the listener for each instance of the player I'm creating). So this class is made to be able to handle as many instance of a class I want without adding a listener on each of them. I'm just creating a global listener on the class and then I will be able to receive dispatched event for any instance of this class .so in my team I can do
Code:
XClassListener.initialize(this);
this.addEventListener("throw", "net.webbymx.game.Player", "wait");
and in my opponent team I can do
Code:
XClassListener.initialize(this);
this.addEventListener("throw", "net.webbymx.game.Player", "seek");

I have a document class called Main.as In the class constructor I have the following listener:
enter code here
var listeningFORModeChangeToStudent:Sprite = new Sprite;
listeningFORModeChangeToStudent.addEventListener(TellAllModeChangeToStudent.STUDENT,exp);
addChild(listeningFORModeChangeToStudent);
[code]....
In a third class I make a call to the despatcher in the previous class:
enter code here
var ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent:TellAllModeChangeToStudent = new TellAllModeChangeToStudent;
ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent.tellAllModeChangeToStudent();
I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?

I have a Document class called Main.
As a child of Main, I have an instance of a class called NavMenu.
As children of NavMenu, I have multiple instances of a NavLink class: navLink01, navLink02, navLink03, etc.
Back up in the Main class, there is a function called navigateTo, which accepts sectionID variable as an argument.
My question is, what is the best practice to get the navLinks to call the navigateTo function on Main? I've been told that in the spirit of encapsulation, it is not best to pass a reference to Main down to the navLinks, and call the function from there.
But rather, it is desirable to use the event listener/dispatcher method, where the navLinks are dispatchers, while the Main class listens for the navLinks to broadcast their sectionIDs.
While this makes sense, however, don't you still have to pass a reference of the listener on the Main class down through the hierarchy, so that the navLinks are registered as dispatchers? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of encapsulation?

For graphical representation I use fla file as a resource. I work in Flash Builder 4.6 to code. I try to create own class Panel which contains the click event. But event doesn't work when I test the move! When I move the event handler (buttonClick) and event listener to main class (test) and apply the event to the card object (for example), all works fine.

let's say that i have this button which is called "Click_Here" and i added an event listener to it in some class file in order for it to run the event handler in a different one .. so it will be like this
classfile1.as
Click_Here.addEventListner(MouseEvent.CLICK , buttonClicked ) ;
classfile2.as
public function buttonClicked (e:MouseEvent){ trace ("hello");}

I'm trying to add an eventListener to a custom class. I created a motion tween in CS4 and exported the motion as as3, which then gave me a chunk of code.I then took that code and turned it into a class. What I'd like to be able to do is set up an event listener in my FLA to listen for when this animation is done playing, however, I have been unable to get that to work. Do I need to add something else to my class? Is there something wrong with how I'm trying to implement the class in my FLA?Here's the code for the class:
Code:

I am having trouble getting a simple event listener class to work. The class is:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.*;
[code]...
and I have the ClassPath pointing to the folder that contains this .as file. I do get the trace "In setUp" but I'm not getting seeing any Keyboard events. There also aren't any errors showing up in output so I am kind of stumped.

What I'd like to do is add an event listener to a class instantiated by my document class that listens for different key presses. So far I can't use stage.addeventListener or I get the null object error so my question is:
a: how do i add an event listener to the stage from another class and b: is it even necessary to add it to the stage , can I listen from that class?

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 am using a component in my application, but it turns out, it's slowing my app down big time b/c it doesnt remove an eventListener on stage for mouse move. Is there a way I can remove this listener? I can't get into the class b/c it's a component and it doesnt have any sort of kill function to call.

I am developing in Flash Builder 4.5 using as3.
I have created a class to connect, write and read to a TCP Socket using 'import flash.net.Socket;'
Within this class is an event listener which reads the incomming data:
Code:
socket.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA, readSocketData);
private function readSocketData(progressEvent:ProgressEvent):void {var response:String = socket.readUTFBytes(socket.bytesAvailable);
trace response;}
My problem is how to output this data back to my main application. Ultimately I want to process the data and output it in a text box.

I'm looking for an alternative to using:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyFunction);
The problem I am encountering is that eventListener above works fine on its own(stand-alone swf), but when loading an .swf externally into another .swf, the listener fails with the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
How can you target the event listener when loading as an external .swf differently?

I'm having an issue with an event dispatcher and an event listener. Here is the application code...
Code:
Select allpackage {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.URLVariables;
import SendAndLoad;
public class Test extends MovieClip {
[Code] .....
It will trace the loader.data variables but doesn't dispatch the event to the main application (Test). I'm listening for the event on the stage of the main but it doesn't trigger the event to display that the login has been successful even though it traces from the sendAndLoad class...

Is there any way to have as3 'listen' for a window to be opened anywhere from the _parent page?I have a Flash animation running with sound on my _parent html page. There are html links elsewhere on the page that will open up other sites. I would like these sites to open in a _blank window rather than the _parent, but to make this practical I need the sound in my flash animation to shut off when this happens. (as there is sound on the other pages as well).It would be really cool if the sound on the _parent page would turn back on when the user closes the new window, although this would complicate things as it is possible the user may open multiple windows so the code would have to keep a count of windows opened.

I was trying to make a tank game in which I can move the tanks, let them shoot each other, etc... I insist on creating external classes with Flash Pro cause I am used to OOP language like Java. I created a Tank class which represents all the tanks. Here is the code of this class:
[Code]...
The problem is that the action listener seems never get called when I press any keys. the trace() is not called. But I tried to add a mouse listener just to test and it worked. So I guess its the Keyboard event listener class's problem? Everyone I see on the web uses stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, move) approach.
