ActionScript 3.0 :: EventListener - Have Multiple Button / Movieclip "sets" That Are Able To Call The Same Function?
Mar 13, 2009I'm pretty new to AS3 and am getting my feet wet as fast as I can. Currently I have a fairly simple thing I'm trying wherein I will have a button_mc that on ROLL_OVER, it triggers a function that will make another MC move. That part I can do- my question though is how can I have multiple button/movieclip "sets" that are able to call the same function? As an example, I'd have "button1_mc" trigger "shape1_mc", "button2_mc" trigger "shape2_mc", and so on. I want to avoid having to have separate sets of functions for each button/movieclip pair. I hope that makes sense.
Here's where I'm currently at with the first eventListener and corresponding function. You can see how in the function I have a specific MC (shape1_mc) named, which of course I'm trying to avoid, as I will likely have 5-10 similar buton/mc pairs like below. Is there a way to call the movieclip (shape1_mc) in the event handler itself without having to name it in the function?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Declaring A Variable In A Function: Either The Function Or The EventListener - Doesn't Work
Nov 27, 2009I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Passing Parameters To A Function From Within An EventListener
Feb 26, 2009Code:
function enableButtons():void
{
for (var i:uint=0; i<40; i++)
[Code]...
I have 40 buttons on the stage. Their names are contained in the Array musicGrid. What I'm trying to do with this code is attach an EventListener to each button so that it will call the function mgMouseBehavior with a parameter to identify the button. For example, I want the button at musicGrid[0] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(0). I want the button at musicGrid[32] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(32), and so on.
However, if you try to add parameters to mgMouseBehavior in the addEventListener, for example:
Code:
musicGrid[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mgMouseBehavior(i));
Then you get Error 2007: Parameter listener must be non-null. How would I accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Flash :: EventListener Function In Parent Class?
Jan 7, 2011I 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 2.0 :: Strange Variable Results With Eventlistener Function
Oct 14, 2009So I've got a function that does several things: It creates video cue points, loads content & executes a function based on those cue points, and finally, sets the eventlistener for the video.
The problem I'm having (after tracing it out) is that the variables within the function seem to be stored as an 'array-like' deal. In other words, the variables output as they should when initially clicked. Next time the code executes, it outputs the newest variable values then IMMEDIATELY the first variable values. This output 'builds' and builds but ultimately the content never dynamically changes as it always ends up loading the first content that was loaded very first time out. I'm *guessing* it has something to do with the event listener being re-instantiated? Tried modifying where I add the listener to no avail.
Any thoughts?
Code:
function vidPlay(vidName) {
swfText.gotoAndStop(1); // mc1 to load external data & play a function
swfText._alpha = 100;
[Code]....
I still haven't been able to figure this one out. My best guess is something to do with the eventlistener being re-instatiated each time the function is called, but I'm not sure. Again, it seems to either be 'storing' the variables in a backwards array somehow (first variable is stored and accessed last at all times) or maybe somehow it's creating multiple instances of the eventlistener and the variables are being pulled from the first iteration of it.
