ActionScript 3.0 :: Triggering A Resize Listener Without Resizing?
Apr 16, 2008
I have a listener that calls a function which sets up everything on the stage exactly where and how I want it, works great. However..I also use the same function for my initial setup, and it's not triggered until/unless someone resizes the window, and as a result, everything is a mess until the window is resized.I could just duplicate the relevant bits in a separate function, but that seems needlessly redundant.Is there a way to trigger the function upon the initial load without waiting for a resize event?I would just call the function directly at the end of the script, but it expects a parameter that I can't figure out how to pass it.[code]

I've got the following problem: I have a button with two listeners: a mouseover and a mouseout. When I mouseover I trigger a TweenLite x tween that tweens the position of a textfield inside the button. It tweens back on the mouseout.
This is the code:
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOver);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onMouseOut);
private function onMouseOver(e:Event):void{
TweenLite.to(e.target.lbl_txt, .2, {x:12});
}private function onMouseOut(e:Event):void{
TweenLite.to(e.target.lbl_txt, .2, {x:8});
}
When I am already hovering the button before the listeners are set and then the listeners are set I get this error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property lbl_txt not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value.

I am trying to create a project where I have a homemade button with a label component inside converted to a MovieClip. I have added an event listener, which triggers successfully when I move into the MovieClip, but retriggers when I move into the label within the MovieClip. Is there anyway to tell it to stop retriggering and act as a single MovieClip, or would it be simpler to break down and just try to customize the Button component?
Here is a sample of what I'm trying to do:
Code:
import flash.events.Event;
btBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, funcClick)
btBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, funcClick)
btBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, funcClick)
[Code]......
Notice how it thinks I mouseOut of btBox when the mouse went over the label, and went back to the btBox after I left the Label.

Overview: I'm creating a menu where buttons have a sub-menu that pops-up when you hover over the main buttons. The menu will eventually be populated by scanning labels in the timeline, and that seems to be working fine so far. Everything works good enough except you can't move your mouse up and down a popped-up sub-menu without the mouse_out function triggering. The mouse_out listener seems to be applied to all individual sub-buttons when I'd like it to apply only to the parent MC container of each sub-menu.
Is there a problem with the way I'm assigning sub-buttons to container MC's ? I've explored using an array to store the MC's as well, but still had the same listener issue. Could someone look at my FLA? If you do a find for "PROBLEM", that is a good place to start.

I've got a large bitmap (1920 x1306) that my client wants as a bg image, scaled to the swf size on load (930 x 575); but that can "grow" up to its original size if/when a user expands the browser window. All the rest of clips in the display list are to remain in place (except for a copyright clip, which they want to always be 14 pix above the bottom of the browser frame. I've tried loading the bitmap dynamically at full size and then using scaleX,scaleY to set it's initial smaller (930x575) size, and I've tried just setting the height/width of the dynamically loaded image using the math of scaleX,ScaleY just in case the scaleX "transformed" the bitmap so that it couldn't return to its original size. Both make the bitmap the right size. But the resize function below did nothing to it, (or the copyright.y.) THEN I tried just putting the bitmap into the display list (both sizing methods work here, too). But even as an original member of the compiled display list, the resize event is still not reaching the target. Everything I've seen on the web says this should work - but...no luck.
Here's the AS3 code in the 1st frame of my swf:
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;

Imagine I have a movie clip on the main timeline that has text in it. If I use the free transform tool on this clip, it resizes the movie and the text within.
However, if I resize the clip using AS2 e.g. clip._height = x; then the clip is resized but the text isn't.
Is there an easy way of achieving the effect that the transform tool has using AScript or do I have to set all the text params separately when I resize the movie

I got a very short question but I can't seem to find it on the internet (might be because I'm using the wrong terms). Is it possible to listen with a listener when a movieclip has been resized? I know there is a listener to do this with the Stage object. If this is not possible: do I have to make an interval that constantly checks if a movieclip is resized?

I'm currently working on a center stage component and I was wondering if there's a good way to detect when a stage component has been changed if any of the elements inside it have been enlarged?
This seems like it should be available but I can't find one that doesn't fire before the redraw. Or at all for that matter.

I am trying to set a listener so that I can respond to an flvComponent when it resizes etc. I am not uses any home made classes. I have stripped the code right down to this, and it still wont work! Have dragged a flvcomponent onto the stage and given it the instance name myVideo.
ActionScript Code:
stop();
myVideo.addEventListener(AutoLayoutEvent.AUTO_LAYOUT, fred);
function fred(e:AutoLayoutEvent){
trace ("hi from fred");
}
when I test I get "type was not found or is not a compile time constant:AutoLayoutEvent". I can do all sorts of processes like changing flv being played, moving it around etc.

how do I call the re-size action at the first frame? It works great once you resize, but isn't called at the beginning. I've tried a few things, but I'm shooting in the dark at this point.
Code:
sizeListener = new Object();
sizeListener.onResize = function() {
if((Stage.width > 1920) || (Stage.height >1200)){

I am working on an Adobe AIR Application. The size on Application window is 800X600 and is contains border container and border container contains many controls. What I want is to if user re-sizes the application then that container should also be re-sized according to scale. i.e If user maximizes or minimizes the window then that border container should also be maximized or minimized respectively.

I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?

I am having a weird problem with scope/reference. I am using a loop to preload a number of thumbs in one go, I am creating a different listener for each one on the fly and then passing event handlers for each one of them. This should not be difficult using a loop, but somehow I cannot access the the parent object on my listener and therefore I can't do much with my thumbs after they are loaded.Here is the relevant segment of my code. myThumb_mc is a temporary variable that does not exist when the loop finishes, you can copy and paste this code to test it though. It should work to that extent. (you'll need an image1.jpg to be in the same directory)
Code:
var myThumb_mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("myThumb_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
myThumb_mc.clipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
myThumb_mc.clipLoader.loadClip("image1.jpg",myThumb_mc);[code].....
The code above works, but it does not look nice and it cannot be the right way of doing this. Long question short, how can I access the parent of a listener from a listener object? ._parent does not work.

As per the title, my flash swf file works fine when tested from the IDE, but when I publish it and open it through the browser, the stage doesn't seem to resize along with the window.I post below a bare-bones example. The "back" movie clip should resize, only it remains at the starting dimensions

I have a main movie here that loads in an external swf through a container mc. everything is aligned and positioned to where it should be, and they are also set to that value onresize. the problem is, when my swf is loaded in, it works fine and is in the right position, same when you resize it. BUT, if you resize the window before the swf is loaded, it misaligns, until you resize!!
