ActionScript 3.0 :: Use The Event.target.name String With An External DispatchEvent?
Feb 7, 2010On my stage I have an externally loaded SWF with a button. When clicked the button dispatches an event to the main stage.
On the main stage a listener then loads an SWF into a loader called gallery. The gallery loader is also being shared by buttons on the main stage which use the event.target.name String to call in SWFs with corresponding names. I am using Tweens to fade-out and -in content to the gallery when a button is pressed.
Loading the SWFs was working until I tried to create a universal button function for the dispatchEvent buttons. The problem I have is that I don't know how to define the String to tell the newSWFRequest where to find the SWF when triggered by the external buttons.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Event Listener On Parent For Event.target = Child?
Jul 30, 2009I have these buttons in a movie clip and I would like to have only one event listener for the parent, using event.target to point to the children. I have also tried event.currentTarget, and it didn't work.here is the code that works:
test01.abtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.bbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.cbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);[code]....
It is only targeting the movie clip, not the buttons inside the movie clip.

Actionscript 3 :: Get Name Value Of Event Target?
Apr 16, 2011I'm implementing a text display area inside an app that displays selected text when the user mouses over one of four elements. Rather than creating a handler function for each element, I would like to get the name of the instance that is calling the handler in order to implement a switch statement. I've tried two ways, but both aren't working:
//install event handlers
initialText.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverHandler);
timeText.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverHandler);
withdrawalText.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverHandler);
[Code]....
Both of those return undefined for the variable name. However, in the debugger, I can trace the event values through currentTarget.name, and that shows the instance firing the handler function, whether it be withdrawalText, initialText or timeText. So how can I apply the name value to a variable in order to determine which text block to display?
ActionScript 3.0 :: What's Going On With Event.target ?

What is going on here?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cant AddChild The Event.target?
Jan 29, 2009i add eventlistener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER) to some movieclip. but when i write: addChild(event.target) it doesnt work.
More info: i have several rectangles on the stage. when movie starts, they all get alpha 0.3, when you mouse over any of them they get alpha 1 with tween. But i made it so that, rectangles are located over the each other. and i want to make it so, that when you mouse over any rectangle it comes to front, but it doesnt work with addChild(event.target).To try it at your own, just create 3 different sized boxes and give then instance names: square_mc, square2_mc, square3_mc and copy+paste this code.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change An Event Target's Name?
Mar 22, 2009Can I change an event target's name? or it's an only-read property? I've been googling it but to no avail... For example, say this is my button code:
[Code]...
if trace the event target's name, you get buttonOne. But what I need to do is have the event's target's name to become buttonOne1. because I already have a button with the instance name. That's my setup, not the way I would do it OF COURSE, but this is the way the unique file is setup for my aunt, to have two set of buttons that calls the same image...(not the thumbnail issue I had before)... so the Question: is there a way to add a letter or remove a letter from the event target's name? You know how you can add a letter to the beginning of an array like buttonsArray.unshift(newButton)....can you do the same thing with an event.target.name?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Target Of The Event?
Jul 10, 2009I made this file, test1.fla where a movieclip named mc1 contains two other mcs. Then I wrote some simple code to make the target of the event (in this case a mouse event) shrink a little.
Here's the code I've used:
Code:
mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onDown);
mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onUp);
function onDown(evt:MouseEvent):void {
[Code]....
When I test this movie, only the selected mc that I hover is the one that shrinks, the other does not shrink (I am talking about those guys inside mc1). However I have done a similar file called test2.fla in which I replaced the nested mc's with shapes, the code is exactly the same, but in this case it's mc1 that shrinks, I mean no matter what shape I hover with mouse, both shrink.
I know (think so) that this is because of event propagation, but why do these two files react in a different manner? Is it becase the mc's inside mc1 can also be a display object container, but shapes cannot?

I have a MC in library, and inside I have 3 movie clips, img_mc, bg_mc (this is a background for text) and title_mc (inside this mc I have a textfield named title-txt).
I create a for loop for the MC, and I use e.currentTarget in my tween animations.
