ActionScript 3.0 :: Dispatch Same Custom Event From Different Loaded Swf
Apr 23, 2011I have a main document class with an eventListener detecting a custom event.
The custom event exists in multiple swfs. Its task is to call a function which will remove a movieclip in the document class.
This is working in the loaded swf, but not in any loaded swf afterward.
Do I need to write the dispatchEvent differently if its trying to send an event that has been sent already?
I hope this isn't too vague without code examples. It would take me quite a while to extract the relevant code.
Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4 Disptaching Custom Event From Custom Component (why Flex Converting Custom Event To Mouseevent)?
Mar 2, 2012This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event
package events

import flash.events.Event;

View 3 RepliesFlex :: Event Flows For Built-in Event And Custom Event
Aug 22, 2011I hava a custom component and it contains a child icon. If I add a mouse-click event listener to both component(click-listener1) and icon(click-listener2), the event dispatched sequence is click-listener2, then click-listener1. I can understand it. But if I add a custom event to component (listener1), and mouse-click event to icon(listener2), when icon is clicked, the component will dispatch the custom event. In my test, the event dispatched sequence is listener1, then listener2. It doesn't match with event-bubbles rule.
In my opinion The custom event is dispatched in listener2, which triggers listener1. Why event flow sequence is not listener2, listener1?
In component.
icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, iconClickHandler);
private function iconClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4.5 Not Listening To Custom Event Dispatched In Custom Class?
Nov 4, 2011I have the following situation:I have an event handler, that displays small messages in my application's statusbar.These messages get passes through by dispatching events from custom components.A simple message could be like "HTTP Error" or so.Now, the main event listener, in the main application file, listens to the event dispatched by any custom component,but seems to refuse listening to events dispatched by custom AS classes.Here is my code for the custom event:
package main.events
{
import flash.events.Event;[code]..
So to sum it all up:
- The event listener listens to the custom event dispatched by any custom component.
- The event listener does not listen to the custom event duspatched by an AS class.
Those who wonder, the event really gets dispatched, that's why I added a trace call.

View 2 RepliesFlex :: Propagating Event From A Built-in Component To A Custom Event?
Jan 27, 2012I am trying to understand event propagation in Flex framework and have a following doubt on it:
Scenario: I have a built-in component DropDownList on change of which I want to create a custom event refreshPreview and want to propagate it to a custom component PictureComponent.
In the custom component's mxml, I have added the Metadata directive as follows to register a refreshPreview event with the compiler
<fx:Metadata>
[Event(name="refreshPreview", type="flash.events.Event")]
</fx:Metadata>
Layout Details: In my main mxml application I have laid out DropDownList and the custom component such that both are siblings (i.e. have a common indirect parent)
e.g.
<s:Group id="contentGroup">
<s:Group id="formGroup">
<s:Form x="11"
[Code]....
I am seeing that the refreshPreview event is not getting propagated to the custom component.
I doubt this is because the built-in component is a sibling of the target (where the event got generated) and not a parent. how to make refreshPreview event propagate to custom component?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Event Without Extending Event?
Sep 19, 2009I'm using a Static EventDispatcher for all event handling in my application, and one of the issues with it is that the Static EventDispatcher becomes the target and currentTarget of the custom Event. Usually, I just pass the event to the custom event which it will carry as its own property. I usually call it "scope". So, instead of using "evt.target" or "evt.currentTarget" in the event handler, I use "evt.scope.target" or "evt.scope.currentTarget" instead. This works fine.
The issue is that I want to simplify this with custom events by overriding the target and currentTarget methods so that they return scope.target/scope.currentTarget. At run time, I get an error saying that I cannot convert Event to whatever I named the custom event. So, I tried not extending Event, and that produced an error stating that the class function is expecting exactly 0 parameters. I just want to make it so that people using Static EventDispatcher handling events as they normally would.
So, the question is there a way to override target and currentTarget while extending the Event class, or is there a way to create a custom event without extending Event?

ActionScript 3 :: Custom Event Not Being Received
Oct 20, 2010ActionScript 3, just learning AS3 but know a handful of other languages. What would cause an event that the listen call executes without throwing an error and was successfully dispatched, to not be listened to?
Dispatch call (this runs ):
private function HandleMouseClick( e:Event ):void{
if ( m_MouseState == MOUSE_STATE_SELECTED )
m_MouseState = MOUSE_STATE_NONE;
else {
m_MouseState = MOUSE_STATE_SELECTED;

The "Squares" are childed to a checkerboard that is childed to my main app ( which extends sprite ). the checkerboard displays and has all the behaviour I want, but when I click a square, the click event fires and dispatches the custom event, but the custom event is never received. That should be all code needed, the rest of the code is just to create a grid and put random numbers in the squares, which works fine. According to every website that has a "custom event tutorial" it would appear that i have everything needed to listen to the event, its just not happening.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Specify A Custom Event In An Instance?
Sep 30, 2010I have a button which is an instance of a "button1" class. The button is instantiated by an instance of the"introScreen" class which is instantiated by the "screenHandler"class. I'm not sure how to attack getting an instance(the "button1" instance ) to dispatch an event heard by its grand parent(the "screenHandler"instance). My main confusion is getting an instance to transmit a specific event like the name of the screen to switch to. Can I specify a custom event in an instance?
