I have a series of identical buttons. I want each one to delete a certain item from an array.But the function that deletes the item from an Array is obviously also the MouseEvent function that the listener looks at, which to my knowledge can only take one parameter.
View 5 RepliesI'm now saving the snapshot this way:
vidBmpHolder.draw(main.media.videoLocal);
var jpgEncoder:JPGEncoder = new JPGEncoder(85);
var jpgStream:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode(vidBmpHolder);
[code].....
hboxvar.addEventListener("mouseDown",dosomething(3 43));
hboxvar.addEventListener("mouseDown",dosomething(1 23));
hboxvar.addEventListener("mouseDown",dosomething(1 2342));
public function dosomething( somenumber:Number ):void {
//do something here
}
I try to do above function but I need to pass variable from hboxvar but not from inside function suggested by macromedia.
any one frustated with this way of passing multiple parameter which depends on what to pass in flex 2 using addEventListener ?

Passing additional parameters to function listeners You can pass additional parameters to function listeners depending on how you add the listeners. If you add a listener with the addEventListener() method, you cannot pass any additional parameters to the listener function, and that listener function can only declare a single argument, the Event object (or one of its subclasses).
I have already created a custom mouse event which seems to work fine. It is simply a mouse event which passes an additional sound object. The problem is I am passing this event to another class which checks for collision of a movie clip with another and if true it adds the sound to an array. What I think is happening is a type conversion problem between my customEvent and the MouseEvent. [code]...
View 3 Repliesim sure other ppl have been faced with this dilemma. say that you are attaching an event listener to an object which obviously if revoked, will call a function. now how do you send additional params with listeners?so you get something like:
Code:
public function eventHandler(e:Event, additionalParam:*){}
i have a solution for this and that is to attach it to the caller so it could be accessed with e.target.variable but i dont know if this is the way to go.
The problem is with addAnimation()
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code].....
... then it works.
But I don't want the movieclip on the root like that, I want it within main.page1
I've got a project I'm working on that has two frames in the main timeline and on the second frame there is a movieclip (pages_mc) with 7 frames to it, each containing content (more movieclips, text, graphics, etc). I set it up this way because I have a title bar and navigation buttons on the main timeline I want to always stay on top of everything.If I have actionscript on an individual frame of pages_mc, that controls buttons on that frame, do I need to remove the MouseEvent listeners if the user navigates to a different frame? I've read that if you don't remove them it will eat up memory and cause poor performance.
I already ran into a problem with the ENTER_FRAME event listener, in which I was forced to remove it because it would just keep going even when the user navigated to a different frame of the pages_mc movieclip.Just didn't know how much of a problem this would be. I'm thinking that if I don't remove them, every time the user goes back to that frame it's just adding another MouseEvent listener to the buttons. Is that correct?
If I'm creating a popup using this method:http:[url]...
Is it possible to send information to another flash file in that popup? I'm building a little xml photo gallery, but I want the pictures to open in a new window when clicked. The path to the picture and a description is loaded from an xml file, is there a way to either send the path and description or send the reference to where to find this info in the xml file to the popup?
I trying to import an XML file, and send bits and pieces to a custom component. My XML file is structured like this:
<projects><project>
<projName>{Insert title of project here}</projName>
<startDate>{Insert date here}</startDate>
<positions>
<daysOffset>{Insert a number here}</daysOffset>
[Code] .....
When I save the project, I do not get any errors or warnings. However, when I attempt to output the values in the component, the projectPositions piece comes back as Null.
I am in the process of creating a flash site for friend of mine. He wants to be able to have a guest list for his events in DC. I have created form boxes and have given them all "instance names". But I have absoultely NO clue how to have the text entered by people trying to get on the guest list sent to my server so we can all read it.
I have a book on Flash but it really doest explain how to do it at all. I'm guessing I need to do some actionscript?

I am attempting to create a Flash site with a Contact Us form where people can email me through the flash site by entering their Contact Information and it emails me there info.
I used this tutorial. [URL]
I can receive the emails when I use this, however, it does not send me the information I type in the flash site. It just sends me a blank email.
I have a scheduling application that allows users to save any changes. When the user clicks the save button, Flex sends all the information to a coldfusion script which picks the information apart and sends saves it to the database. That all works well and good, but I would like to be able to display some sort of text to the user saying something like "Your file was successfully saved" or "There has been an error.

I don't know how to ask this, but the thing is that i was thinking that how does youtube or videofy.me like video blogs send the video path & all info to a flash video player i mean when e click on any video link how does it sets up everything and displays the chosen video, because actually i've created one but in that i had to set up the whole page via flash so that it can manipulate the information like path & name of the video, and cannot use html links, php and all.. so can u people tell me how do i start up & how this process is done & what i need to do & other important things on this.. i mean sending any info to a flash player via any scripting or server side language.
View 1 RepliesI have created a script for an Adobe FMS application to broadcast a playlist of video files as a live stream. (internet tv)

I have several stage event handlers to enable mouseovers over several dynamically generated moviecilps on the stage that then change their alpha to indicate the mouse is over that particular mc... fairly trivial (mcOver handler). Additionally, I also want to know what MC is clicked, so I update a public variable (public var activemc:Number) with the ID of the dynamic movieclip when the mouse is over it (using a hitTest to check, which is why the EventListener is added to stage and not to the MC), which is checked in the mcClicked handler:This is in the constructor:
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDrawing);
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDrawing);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);[code]....
However, the mouseover behaviour (alpha 0 when over, alpha 1 when out) stops working as soon as I click on any movieclip on the stage, and the mcClicked ID checking (below) stops working completely. I don't know if this is to do with focus:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
}
I then tried adding the event handler for the stage mouse_move again and this gets the mouseover working again but only for 1 more click, after which it stops again:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);
I have a MovieClip (call it base_mc) which is under a bunch of other MovieClips (call them subclips). The MovieClips on top are all mouseEnabled with MOUSE_OVER, CLICK, etc, event handlers. I want to capture the event of MOUSE_OVER (or ROLL_OVER) on the base_mc as well. Any time I am over one of the subclips I am also over the base_mc clip. How can I capture this event?
View 2 RepliesI'd like to know what is the difference between MouseEvent.CLICK & MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN. Because when i use MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN for a button to set full-screen view its doesn't work, instead of this MouseEvent.CLICK works. So what was the reason.
View 3 RepliesI'm making a button for the first time, and I wanted to use a full click to drive it. However, when I use addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler); nothing happens when I click on it. When I use (with the rest of the code being identical) addEventListener(MouseEvent. MOUSE_ down, onClickHandler); it works like a charm.
View 6 RepliesWhat is the difference between MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP and MouseEvent.CLICK? Why should I use one of these over the other?
Code:myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fNavigate, false, 0, true);
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fNavigate, false, 0, true);
I have a MOUSE_DOWN handler that creates a CLICK event listener on a child object. Naturally, as soon as you release the mouse button, if you happen to be over the child object, the CLICK event fires.I was disappointed to discover that event.stopImmediatePropagation doesn't interrupt the CLICK event from registering the MOUSE_DOWN as part of its detection cycle. It makes sense that it doesn't but still... disappointing.A MouseEvent.CLICK consists of detecting a MOUSE_DOWN on the object and then if it's followed by a MOUSE_UP without leaving the object, he event fires. I had hoped that by cancelling the MOUSE_DOWN event, it would clear that out of the CLICK buffer, but no such potatoes, alas.This could all be handled with a flag and a couple more MOUSE_UP and MOUSE_DOWN handlers, but dang, smacks of effort

Now inside of the other two classes I should be able to just use main_class.myFunc(); Correct? Why isn't is working? How can I interact classes?
