ActionScript 3.0 :: Action Listeners Triggered Together For Different Items?
Sep 28, 2011
The flash, is designed as below so that when click on the button on the screen, will pick up the button and let the button move with the mouse. When the mouse is click again anywhere in the stage, the button will be put down again and wont follow the movement of the mouse.
The problem is that whenever the pickup function is triggered, though the stage event listener for dropdown only get added when the pickup eventListener has been triggered, the dropdown function is always executed together with the pickup function (will dropdown as soon as it has been picked up, all within a single click instead of the intended 2).

I have a scrolling navigation bar and two buttons on either side to move it left and right. I created functions to handle moving the navigation MC left and right, and they work just fine.
My problem is, I'm trying to set my buttons up using onPress, like this:
function ScrollForward()
{
// function contents
}
[Code]....
The problem is, when I create the .swf, the functions placed in the onPress events automatically run. And neither button triggers the "onPress" events. I have removed the last two lines with the onPress events and the functions do not run, so the way I've set them up is obviously wrong.
The problem is obviously the onPress lines because the functions do not run without those lines, and if I simply put the full function within the onPress event rather than separate, they both run correctly. I want to call these functions elsewhere, so I don't want to simply include them solely within the onPress event.

What I want to do is be able to click a button that adds an Item to the stage and then you are able to drag the item around on the stage. I know how to do these things separately as in if the item is already on the stage I know how to add the code to drag it and I know how to create a button that brings a library item on the stage. How would I combine the two?

I'm trying to make a flash version of those refrigerator magnet poetry kits. As such I have about 150-180 little MCs each with a different word. They are all named sequentially, so theoretically I could just make some array counter or something to stick the handlers on right?

I'm referring to the Action Panel, "Press the Add a new item to script button and choose flash.display > MovieClip > Methods > stop."
However, when I click the Add icon, it lists only:
Top Level
Language Elements
adobe.utils
air.net
fl.accessibility
fl.containers
fl.controls
I don't see flash.display anywhere.

If I wanted to change an action from a button click to a frame-based action, what do I use instead of onPress? The hints from the AS editor are all click-based.

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}
Everything I have attempted is not working.

I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?

How can I get an action to follow another action when a button is clicked? When a button is clicked, I want the timeline to go to a certain frame and play and when it's done playing, to go to another frame and play. I basically want two actions in one function.

I have a project underway where I am making an interactive game. It is a personal character creator game and I need Actionscript 3 help with this.Something similar here:http:[url]....
I have tried already with toggling visibility and 'gotoAndStop()' to make items appear over other items when the corresponding button is pressed, for example, when the user tries out different pants/shirts on their character.

I would like to use the selectionMode=multiple described in the Flex docs, but with a few modifications:
1) I would like the box that the user drags over the graph to remain there until the user drags a new one.
2) In the top right corner of the box I want to display the sum of the items selected by that box.

I'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.
I created the component using a s:List element.
In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.
Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.
is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?

I am using code from a tutorial that I downloaded to get an Home.swf to preload in my "index" page.the problem is that a part of the code reads
movie1_btn.onPress=function(){
startPreload ("Home.swf");
}
which means that I have to create a button to get the .swf file to load, how do I edit this code so that the action begins on it's own at that frame?

how to get my CollectionEvent to work, and I seem to be able to see the problem, but I am not sure how to get it to work properly.
In my actionscript, it seems to only tell that event.items.length is 1, while I am calling my array collection from the HTTPService, and I have tested the length of my Array Collection, which seems to be accurate. What I tried to do is to use that number in the CollectionEvent function, but that does not work at all.
Attach Code
private function onChange(event:CollectionEvent):void{
for (var i:int=0; i< event.items.length; i++) {
Alert.show(event.items.length.toString()); //This always gives me 1 when I have 12 items

NetStatusEvent has only one type of event: NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS; but it comes with many codes for various cases.
Here they are, listed.
However, a lot of them are not triggered for me. I know some are FMS specific but I'm talking about "NetStream.Play.Stop", "NetStream.Pause.Notify" or "NetStream.Unpause.Notify".
Is there a case when they shouldn't be triggered, even though I'm calling NetStream's control functions (which take effect), or a known issue around this matter?

I'm looking for an event that tells me when the browser is refreshed, or better to say, when my flash app exits. So I tried
stage.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, onDeactivate);
but its only triggered when closing the debug window and not on refreshing or closing the browser.
