ActionScript 3.0 :: Check If Somewhere In Code Some Eventlisteners Are Still "on"?
Jan 28, 2009
1. How to check if somewhere in my code some eventlisteners are still "on" ? and i dont mean check by interaction, but with the code? is that possible?
2. If i have a menu with some tween, and the user clicks, it takes some time before he will be able to click on another menu button (at least it doesnt happen instantly), or if i have a gallery and when user clicks on the thumbs it also takes some time to remove the previous picture and add the new one with few transitions, is this is good practise in that case? in for loop when i am creating and adding multiple objects to push tem into array:

Here's a little script i wrote to check for a serial code to a xml file, and allow the user to use the flash document. this code seems pretty useless, but in all reality you can sell you flash document, with having users to input a serial code in order to use the flash document.
which might allow flash developers to make money on such a pointless project. eg. sell games, as a (.exe, or a .app) file, or make then buy a serial online an play it online. or sell very useful programs, for real money, and don't have to worry about people using it for free.

NOTE: i am not responsible for any lost of anything due to this actionscript code that you have choose to use at your own lost, of hackers, cheating you to use your flash document for free.

I am creating a site where there is a portfolio section with icons for each piece of artwork.Regardless of which icon 1-10 is clicked, for the first time ONLY, I want to load a swf which "draws in" a portfolio "background", and another swf on a higher level which corresponds to the icon clicked (lets say a sample artwork).
However, if the user has previously clicked another portfolio icon and is currently viewing one of the portfolio pages, there is no need to load the "background" swf again (it would be tedious watching the drawing in animation over again).
I've designated a target container movieclip for each.The icons swf file with the buttons is another swf on the timeline.Is there some code which can check to see if the background swf is already loaded into its container? And in which swf would I attach the code?

I'm new to AS3 coming over for AS2 and trying to figure out how to code a simple load sequence. I've got two scenes, "Scene 1" and "Scene 2". I've got a MC that is a simple shape tween that loops in the "Scene 1". I'm trying to assign code to this MC that will check to see if frame 40 of Scene 2 is loaded. If it is, gotoAndplay Scene 2 frame 1. If frame 40 of Scene 2 is not loaded, continure to loop the MC unitil it is. Here is the code I've got for the MC in the "Scene 1"
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (i > 40) {
gotoAndPlay("firstframe", "Scene 2");
}
}
"firstframe" is the frame label for the Frame 1 in Scene 1. This seems more difficult in AS3 than AS2.

Let's say I have a global SoundChannel object, and inside a function I am repeatedly creating new instances of the Sound object to play songs one after the other. Each time I do this, I need to add a new eventListener to the SoundChannel to call the function 'onSoundComplete' that will load the next song on completion.Coming from a strict C++ programming background, I often wonder if it's necessary to do some kind of cleanup in Flash, or if it handles it automagically.Here's example code that specifically removes the eventListener from the previous Sound object everytime a new one is created, but I don't want to be doing this if it isn't necessary:
Code:
// Setup sound object buffer
var slc:SoundLoaderContext = new SoundLoaderContext(3000);

I have images loading from an array. A slideshow. This works fine, but they pile on top of each other. I cannot figure out how to remove them. what's the simplest way to remove them? How do I say - if pic1 is loaded, before loading pic2, remove pic1?
Code:
var aPics:Array=new Array("pic1.jpg","pic2.jpg","pic3.jpg","pic4.jpg","pic5.jpg");
var threeSeconds:Timer=new Timer(3000,aPics.length);
threeSeconds.start();

Trying to add EventListeners to Bitmaps.Can I add an EventListener directly to a bitmap?If I load an image to a UILoader then addEventListener to the UILoader instance that works just fine, but if I use a Bitmap instead, nada...I could load the Bitmap into a Sprite and add the EventListener to that, but would prefer the direct method...

Inside a .fla file I have some buttons and each button will tween a different image to the stage. All the images are outside the stage in the same x and y position and I just need to tween the x coordinate.
Now I'm working with an external document class where I'm trying to hold all my functions and I'm stucked with the Tweens. I'm willing to stay away from the flash tween engine and I'm trying to work with tweenLite.
Is it possible to pass parameters through eventListeners so I can use something like this inside my docClass?
public function animeThis (e:MouseEvent, mc:MovieClip, ep:int):void { //ep stands for endPoint.
TweenLite.to(mc, 2, {x:ep});
}
If this is possible, how am I supposed to write the listeners so it will pass the event to be listened for AND those parameters? And how to build the function so it will receive those parameters and the event?

I've got a few MouseEvent listeners outside of a function that contains nested functions that need to use the functions attached to the listeners.
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, buttonOver);
function navigation (): void {
if statements;
[code]....
I keep getting an "1120:Access of undefined property buttonOver" error. I know it's because the EventListener is outside of the function "navigation" but I need it to be accessed by other functions later.

I have main.swf and content.swf. I load content into main. When I try to unload it gives me error, due to the fact that in my content.swf I have MouseMove event and this event is causing this error:
ActionScript Code:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at content_fla::MainTimeline/onLoop()
How to properly kill all eventListeners?
My main.swf code:
ActionScript Code:
var holder:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(holder);

I did some research and it seems quite an issue - especially when trying to remove, enterFrame, mouseMove or stage listeners. Im using CS3.

I tried using a .enabled = false; when I already had a click event on that movie clip. I found that you need to remove the eventlistener instead of making enabled false.Why doesn't enabled work when you have event listeners?I'm really more curious than in need of an answer since removeEventListener worked fine.

I have a menu with buttons on the stage that when clicked load external swf but the problem, although i can remove them from the stage, is that they are still playing which gives my site performance problems. I gave weak references to the Event Listeners but i didn�t remove them.Here�s the code:
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
[code]...
How can i remove each the listeners from each swf so that the site doesn�t perform so slow?

Say I have this code:
Code:stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, reloader);
function reloader(e:KeyboardEvent):void {[code].....
and this:
Code: var reloadT:Timer = new Timer(2000, 2);
reloadT.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, on_timer);
reloadT.start();[code].........
So I have a code that tracks Key_UP and one for a timer. However, I want to somehow use them together, like inside each other: ex. Run the timer function in Key_UP.I want to trigger the timer only if Key_UP is found. How would I do this?

I got a pickle for you: I have a function that is currently connected to an event listener like this:
Code:
loginButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loginOnClick, false, 0, true);
function loginOnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
// Login code.
}
Right now I'd also like to call that same function using the ENTER from a keyboard since loginOnClick doesn't use the parameter received (event:MouseEvent). So I did this:
Code:
function keyboardListener(event:KeyboardEvent):void{
if (loginButton){
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER && loginButton.enabled) {
loginOnClick(); // Generates an error because it doesn't have a parameter.
}
}
usernameTextField.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyboardListener);
Problem is, of course, AS3 doesn't let you call a function with the incorrect number of parameters or types. I tried following senocula's tutorials on functions and parameters but they don't seem to work on this very specific issue considering the parameter is an event reference.

I am creating a small image gallery and I am creating the actual images dynamically. The images are stored via json and I am listing them underneath each other. No I can get all to work and they all load and position each other correctly underneath. What I would like to do is assign each image a addEventListener so that when clicked they pass the necessary details onto another function which will then display a larger image simple and basic but I am having trouble with adding the eventlistener. each one gets an eventlistener to it but when clicking on each one they all show the details from the last one. The code is attached to the main gallery container is as follows:

I want to know if there's a 'correct method' in removing a MovieClip off the stage. I am currently programming in simple OOP and I have 2 classes, for now lets relate them to Tree and Fruit. The fruit is the child of the tree.
When the fruit is being clicked on. the tree AND the fruit will fade off and I will perform a removechild only on the tree. So I'm now puzzled if just removing the tree would automatically remove everything including the fruit(without performing a proper tree.removeChild(fruit)) and all the eventlisteners attached to fruit?
If not, must I perform remove child on every single MC/Sprite I have added onto tree/fruit for the best performance? Would like to find out how you go about doing it the 'correct way'.

i need to attach an event listener, and have its handler have a variable passed into it ..this possible?
Code:
mc.addEventListener(Mouse.Event.ROLL_OVER, over(obj) );
function(e:MouseEvent,obj:Object):void{
e.removeEventListener(....);
trace(obj);
}
.. sommint like that .. as3 says function is static, missing argument etc .. there may be other ways about it - but it is crucial to my setup, as when the EL is added, the object passed is only obtainable at that point.

See [URL] Now there is a button called Answera, which when clicked should have a symbol (movie clip) called Check appear at the cordinated specified. Check exists in the libary (but does not have an instance name) and no where else on the stage. when I run this code I get: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Check. -> var rightCheck = new Check(); How is it undefinded if it exists in the libary?

The following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?
