ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Eventlistener To A Child Movie Clip?

Sep 8, 2009

I have 2 movie clips, let's call them mcParent and mcChild. mcParent is a movie clip on the stage, and mcChild is a movie clip inside mcParent.I want to listen and execute a function (which is defined on the first frame of the stage), when mcChild is clicked. So I add the following script on the 1st frame of the main clip (stage):

Code:
mcParent.mcChild.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickChild);
function clickChild(e:MouseEvent):void
{
trace("click");
}

The clickChild function, however, is never called. So for whatever reason I am not receiving the event.

PS: I cannot add the event to mcChild. I know, that would be easy, but I need to have it this way, because when mcChild is clicked, I want to fade out mcParent (the clip that is on the stage).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Child Object Interferes With Parent EventListener?

May 11, 2009

So I have a MC called "slider" slider has multiple graphics and clips and buttons in it. I have an event handler that tells the "slider" clip to move when you rollover and to move back when you rollout. Problem is that anything you rollover in the parent clip, once rolled off, even thought it is still in the parent clip, it triggers the rollout action.

Code:
this.slider.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, slideOvr);
this.slider.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, slideOut);

Flash :: EventListener Function In Parent Class?

Jan 7, 2011

I have class ShowCase that inherite from my class ContentMC (that inherite from MovieClip). In the class ShowCase I have an EventListner that calls a function in the parent class ContentMC. But I get an error that says "Access of undefined property restoreMenuItem".

This is my eventlistner in ShowCase.as.

showcaseItem.addEventListener("CONTENTMCCLOSED", restoreMenuItem);

Here I get the error, it doesn't find the function restoreMenuItem.

The function restoreMenuItem is in ContenMC and looks like this.

public function restoreMenuItem(evt:Event):void
{
}

How do I call this function that's in the parent?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing EventListener From Imported Class

Jan 30, 2011

I have an on enter frame listener defined in a function:
Code:
function sideClicked(e:MouseEvent):void {
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
var targetName=e.target.name;
var a:Array=[];[Code] .....

The looptoposition() function simple calls a function from a custom class repetitively to move an object until it reaches its position. This is the function it calls from the included custom class:
Code:
public function rotateToPos(a:Number,b:Number,c:Number):void {
if(!cubeReady){return;}
if(cube.rotationY<b){
cube.rotationY+=3;
[Code] .....

This gets the desired result visually - the cube rotates until the chosen point and then stops - however the listener continues. I have two problems:
1) I would like to remove the listener but can't seem to do so from the imported class - I'm having trouble referencing my functions in the root flash file.
2) I also need to declare that the function has completed - but the equalities mean that b is either greater or less than but never equal to? Whats a better way of getting the cube to rotate to a set position on each frame? The reason for the equalities are the cube can turn two different directions. So rotation could be negative.

I am trying to add evenListeners to movieClips that are created by a method in one of my Classes. Creating an instance of my class from the main timeline and then adding that instance to the stage.:

//MY CLASS
var createSlide:AddItems = new AddItems();
var scrollClip:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(scrollClip);
//ADDIMAGES CREATES 4 MOVIECLIPS
createSlide.addImages(BG,image1,image2,image3,image4);
//ADD TO STAGE
scrollClip.addChild(createSlide);

So how do I add event listeners to the movieClips created by createSlide?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Modifying A Variable From Eventlistener Function In A Class?

Actionscript 3 :: Adding EventListener To Inherited Property From Inside And Outside Of The Class

Dec 26, 2011

Reading a book i stumbled on this example:

Here is the class:

package com.learningactionscript3.loading {
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;

[Code]....

What I deduce from this example is that the swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo and _ldrInfo = this.contentLoaderInfo refer to the same object in the same memory location. So you may think: "well the last added event will overwrite the first one (the internally one added). But it doesn't. The two event listeners will respond sequentially. First the internal listener and then the external listener.

i have a BasicMap.as that takes an Array and populates itself with the MC objects passed to it by a String reference.it inherits from Sprite, and so it just places the objects on its self.then i have a class that inherits from that class, and gives a little more functionality to it, but in order for it to do that, it needs to place the objects not on itself, but instead inside a holder Sprite, so here is my problem:

Actionscript 3 :: Dispatching Events From Parent Class To Child Class

Apr 30, 2010

I think this is a pretty simply problem but I do not seem to be able to pull it off. Basically I have a parent class A, and a child class B.Class A instantiates class B with addChild.There is a shared object which is being updated from a java server (red5) that has an event listener attached to it in class A.I have a function in class A which will pass certain, specific updates from this shared object to class B.The problem occurs is that when class B is instantiated, the event listener from class A doesn't work anymore. I have not removed the event listener from A.?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Child Images From A Class?

Jul 27, 2010

I'm having trouble adding images to the screen from an AS3 class that's being called from within a flex application. I'm writing the application using flash builder CS5.

As far as I understand it, display content is added to the screen using the addchild() method of the display object. Every which way I try to add an image to a display object I get an implicit coersion error from image to whatever.

Is there a specific set of steps I need to take?(i.e. wrap the image in a container and then add that) Or is there another way to display an image on the screen programmatically?

This application is for a game and I need to be able to display these images via a class that handles the tiling. I've been able to work around the problem so far by declaring the images as native mx:Image flex components and then referencing them via my program, but that's only suitable as a temp fix. Is there some other way to display the images from actionscript?

I have one custom class named player, which plays video from RTMP Server. It has property named cliptime:Number and it holds the video's duration through the metadata.duration property. I have other class named controlbar which holds the control bar for the video. I use TweenMax.to to move It's video slider and I want the tween's duration value to be the player class' cliptime property. But I can't get this value. Both classes are child of ramesCont class and are added to it. framesCont and controlbar extends Canvas class, and player extends Sprite if it matters.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Child Index In A Class?

Sep 26, 2009

Im trying to build a class that moves around some movieclips on the stage, but it would never be that easy would it!

Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Rotation extends MovieClip {

[Code]...

So I waddled it down to the "stage.addChildAt(mcContainer[i], i);" bit and I've tried everything that I could think of, but nothing seems to work.

With this version of the code, I would get "The supplied index is out of bounds." error, I can change it to addChildAt etc, but that just gives me a different error.

I had this working when it was in a flash file, its converting it into a usable class thats bugging me. All the MovieClips in the array are being exported for Actionscript.

ActionScript 2.0 :: AS2: Accessing Parent MC Class From Child MC?

I've been using greensock classes in a parent movie, but am now looking to use the same classes from within some child movies, but it doesn't work (I presently have to import them into each child movie - what a waste).

Do I need to create the classes as a shared library object perhaps? If so, how would I go about it? as I've only ever done this for MCs or MP3s.

Class :: FLA File - Adding Child To Stage

Apr 12, 2012

I am trying to make a "Achtung! die kurve" - like game in Actionscript 3.0. So far I've done the movement of one of the 'worms', and it works alright. I wanna divide it into different class files, but I can't seem to get it to work. I have a .fla file and 4 .as files. So far I only have code in two of these. When I put all my code directly into the fla file, it works perfectly fine, but when I put it into my player class, it won't 'add the child' to the stage. Here is my player .as file: [URL].

The reason why I commented the addChild, is because I wanna do this in my mainFile.as. This is from the main file: [URL]. I'm not quite sure how to call it in the main file, so I'm guessing that this would be the issue. All the files are named and placed correctly in the same folder, and flash says that each of my .as files are targeting the .fla file, so this doesn't seem to be the issue. How I can change the speed of my sprite.
