ActionScript 3.0 :: AddEventListener To A Button Inside A Movieclip?
Jun 23, 2010
I have a movieclip called "cores" in my stage, and inside it a button called for example "bt01"
My fla loads a class called ApplicationMain, and I want to add a listener to the button bt01 into this ApplicationMain, like
bt01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DoSomething);
When I try to run my code I get this error:
Quote:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of.
I already tryed thinks like cores.bt01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DoSomething); but nothink works.

I'm working on tabs that display different carousel type galleries with previous and next buttons. So, I've got a function that is being called by these tabs and is passed an array based on which tab is selected. Inside of that function, I'm adding an eventListener to the previous and next buttons and using a callback function that works based on the number of items in the array that was passed through the function call. I was running into some strange happenings and using trace statements. Here's what I find: The first call to the function works and traces correctly. The second call traces 2 trace statements; the 3rd call traces 3 statements and so forth. So, I'm assuming that each call is adding another event listener to the buttons.
Here's a condensed version of the function in question:
Code:
Select allfunction loadgallery(picArray){
/* Image Loading code here */
var totalPics = picArray.length;
var picNum = 0;
next_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextPic);
function nextPic (e:MouseEvent):void{
picNum++;
/* Tween actions here */
trace("picNum: " + picNum); //this traces 1x first time, 2x second, 3x third, etc.
}}
Do I need to remove the event listener from the next_button? If so, what's the best way to do that? Or does someone see something else that I"m overlooking? I tried removing the event listener at the beginning of the function, but failed.

I have a button inside another button which is inside a movieclip. *whew*I have it so that when you click on the movieclip, a dialog box pops up. I have two buttons on the dialog box, but for some reason you can't click on them and when you do, the dialog box just disappears. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about, so how do i get the "YES/NO" buttons to work? Oh, the buttons are not included in that Graphic

I have been using TweenLite for all of my easing. I was wondering what the code is for having a button inside a movieclip not active while the movieclip is tweening.Then when the movieclip does finish tweening the button then becomes active.

How can I get a button inside a movieclip link to a frame in another movieclip on the scene? I tried this code:
function gotoCenter(event:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).centermc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
skruetest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoCenter);
..where "skruetest" is the button, "centermc" is the movieclip where I want to go to frame 2. I don�t get errors with this code, but nothing happens when I click the button. What can I do?

I have a button inside a movieclip, to which I would like to apply a rollover function. When rolled over, this button (inside MOVIECLIP 1) would make (MOVIECLIP 2) jump to second frame. I'm using Flash 8.This is turning onto a real headache for me, since i've searched every single forum and thread concerning this matter, and nothing seems to work.

I have preloader code in my main FLA, and I load the corresponding preloader (a small file) externally. When I detect that the file is fully loaded, I need to add the listener to the content that I want to "preload".[code]If I use it this way, the loaderInfo listener does not work, but if I add the listener ouside of the handler function, it does.The problem is, I need it to work from within the complete handler, because obviously, the preloaded can show the % completed only after it's loaded...

I got this weird problem, when i run this code:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code]....
In Flash Cs3 it acts exactly as i want, the ENTER_FRAME runs and the addObject places numerous sprites on the stage. In the window output i'll see the trace. But when i run this code in Eclipse which is set up to use the Flash Player as output i get the first trace from EDHV_ImageSlider but the traces inside addObject won't show up, the sprites however are generated perfect.
The difference between the eclipse setup and the cs3 setup is the fact that the cs3 setup has a *.fla which calls the *.as package.

I'm adding a MovieClip with with the following code in the main timeline:
var mcCiclo_01:mc_ciclo=new mc_ciclo;
function ciclo(event:MouseEvent):void{
addChild(mcCiclo_01);
}
I want to use a button inside that movieclip to link to an external web page. I was able to do that with dot notation if the movieclip was "fisically" in the main timeline but this way doesn't work.

I've got a movieClip with some Actionscript applied to it (to make it rotate, stop onMouseOver, and continue onMouseOut).Now, I basically want a button inside that movie clip - applied to the object that's spinning.Whenever I put the button inside the movieClip, Flash doesn't recognise it. According to the SWF, the button doesn't exist.So, how do I get a button in a movieClip that has Actionscript applied to it?Or, am I going about this the wrong way and there's an obvious answer that I'm missing?(My idea is, for those who watch Stargate, to have the inner chevron ring spin, for it to stop spinning onMouseOver and then have the user click a chevron

I'm trying to add an event listener to a button inside a movieclip. I have a movieclip called MainMenuGraphic that I get from the .fla library, and inside that movie clip is a button named btnNew. When btnNew is pressed the mouse event is supposed to trigger a handler that runs a trace, but I have not been able to get that trace to show in my output window. This is my code:

I have made a sort of drop down menu of a movieclip. There are actually two, the first one named list_over_mc is only to detect when the mouse is in the area for when to drop down the menu (onRollOver) and the other one, list_mc, is holding the menu itself. The problem is that when the menu is down nothing happens when I click the button (now named knapp1_btn). I have tried with another but with the same sort of script (but placed outside of the movieclip list_over_mc) and that works so I'm guessing it is because the button is "over" the other movieclip.

How do you access a button from inside another movieclip?
I have:
_root.bg.B_Start on the stage with B_Start being the instance name of the button on frame 2 of the bg movieclip, which is on frame 2
My code is:
B_Start.onRelease = function() {
trace('ping');
};
I am trying to get ping to be traced when the button is pressed but nothing happens.

I have a movieClip on my main timeline, that I have scripted as follows:
Code:
//IT Button
this.IT_mc.onRollOver = function ()
{
[Code]....
Basically this just makes the movie clip fade to a different color when rolled over. This works fine, but I also have individual buttons inside the movieclip that don't work. They don't rollover, or activate. As if they weren't really buttons. How do I script the internal buttons to "getURL"? I have tried the standard "on(Release)" format of doing it, and that doesn't work.

I have a sound on/off button inside of a movie clip that loads prior to the 'home state' It has a sound loop running and can be turned on and off with the button. However, when you turn the sound button off and return to a button state that it was previously running under, the sound starts up again.

I have a movieclip inside the OVER on a button, right now I have an animation that causes the button's brightness increases from 0 to 10 over 24 frames and then come stops because of a stop (). I now intend to add an animation after stop () which gets the button's brightness goes back to 0 again when you no longer hold the mouse over the button. I would therefore like to make some kind of mouseOut event that allows Movieclip go to the next frame. I have tried to insert a target path but it seems that it can't reach the movie clip inside the button.
