I want to trigger a custom event when another custom event finishes. It seems like it should be easy, something like...
function ****(e:Event):void {
} function ####(e:Event):void {
.addEventListener(event.COMPLETE, ####);
Kind of like when you add a event.COMPLETE listener to the load function.

I'm making a site that loads external swfs based on which button is clicked. When the swf loads it plays an intro and then stops at a certain point. My goal is that when you click another button the current swf plays an outro before the next one loads.The problem I'm having is making the outgoing movie trigger the function that loads the next.At first I tried just adding loadNextMovie(); to the last frame of the loaded swf. But for some reason this causes the two stops in the file from working so the thing just keeps looping. I have no idea why adding this function call would prevent stop(); from working.Is there another way to have the end of movie trigger the function? Also, why doesn't adding loadNextMovie(); to the last frame of the loaded swf work?
View 4 RepliesThis is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event
package events
{
import flash.events.Event;
import ui.map.MapElement;

Is there a point of creating custom event class if i dont need to pass custom property with that event?
View 3 RepliesI have a wheel that the user can spin by flicking it with a mouse (think wheel of fortune). It needs to trigger an event once the spinning has finished depending on what section of the wheel it has landed on. I can get it to trigger an event but it triggers every time the wheel passes the hitTest object, not just when it is done. I've attached a sample of it.
View 8 RepliesI�m getting Error #2032 when my URLLoader complete event finishes firing. What I can�t figure out is why. The complete event fires successful (I ran a number of trace statements to make sure it made it all the way to the end of the method with no error) and I�m not getting any helpful output when I trap the IOError. Here is the error message:

I hava a custom component and it contains a child icon. If I add a mouse-click event listener to both component(click-listener1) and icon(click-listener2), the event dispatched sequence is click-listener2, then click-listener1. I can understand it. But if I add a custom event to component (listener1), and mouse-click event to icon(listener2), when icon is clicked, the component will dispatch the custom event. In my test, the event dispatched sequence is listener1, then listener2. It doesn't match with event-bubbles rule.
In my opinion The custom event is dispatched in listener2, which triggers listener1. Why event flow sequence is not listener2, listener1?
In component.
icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, iconClickHandler);
private function iconClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{

I have the following situation:I have an event handler, that displays small messages in my application's statusbar.These messages get passes through by dispatching events from custom components.A simple message could be like "HTTP Error" or so.Now, the main event listener, in the main application file, listens to the event dispatched by any custom component,but seems to refuse listening to events dispatched by custom AS classes.Here is my code for the custom event:
package main.events
{
import flash.events.Event;[code]..
So to sum it all up:
- The event listener listens to the custom event dispatched by any custom component.
- The event listener does not listen to the custom event duspatched by an AS class.
Those who wonder, the event really gets dispatched, that's why I added a trace call.
I am working with a short vocal track and when the audio ends I would like a replay button to appear. The codes should work fine, no errors appear. Trace displays nothing...Here is some of the code:

i am a bit embarassed to ask this, but i do this so much i have to ask. Occasionally, i need to pass/handle custom events on the fly. Rather than creating a whole custom event class, i will just do something like
Code:
myObject.dispatchEvent(new Event('thisCustomEvent'));
//and then handle it later
