ActionScript 3.0 :: Disable MouseEvent.CLICK Events On A MovieClip
May 12, 2009
Suppose, I created a MovieClip(with instance-name= "myClip") on the stage. If I need to process MouseEvent.CLICK event on this movieclip(myClip), then we use addEventListener(bla.... bla...); method.
Now, my requirement is, in certain case, I do not want to occur any MouseEvent.CLICK events on this same movieClip(i.e., myClip).Then, How to do this? (or) What is the method/class used in this context?
Atlast, My requirement is: How to remove/disable Mouse_CLICK events when occur on a MovieCLip.

I have several stage event handlers to enable mouseovers over several dynamically generated moviecilps on the stage that then change their alpha to indicate the mouse is over that particular mc... fairly trivial (mcOver handler). Additionally, I also want to know what MC is clicked, so I update a public variable (public var activemc:Number) with the ID of the dynamic movieclip when the mouse is over it (using a hitTest to check, which is why the EventListener is added to stage and not to the MC), which is checked in the mcClicked handler:This is in the constructor:
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDrawing);
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDrawing);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);[code]....
However, the mouseover behaviour (alpha 0 when over, alpha 1 when out) stops working as soon as I click on any movieclip on the stage, and the mcClicked ID checking (below) stops working completely. I don't know if this is to do with focus:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
}
I then tried adding the event handler for the stage mouse_move again and this gets the mouseover working again but only for 1 more click, after which it stops again:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);

I'd like to know what is the difference between MouseEvent.CLICK & MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN. Because when i use MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN for a button to set full-screen view its doesn't work, instead of this MouseEvent.CLICK works. So what was the reason.

I'm making a button for the first time, and I wanted to use a full click to drive it. However, when I use addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler); nothing happens when I click on it. When I use (with the rest of the code being identical) addEventListener(MouseEvent. MOUSE_ down, onClickHandler); it works like a charm.

What is the difference between MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP and MouseEvent.CLICK? Why should I use one of these over the other?
Code:myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fNavigate, false, 0, true);
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fNavigate, false, 0, true);

I have a MOUSE_DOWN handler that creates a CLICK event listener on a child object. Naturally, as soon as you release the mouse button, if you happen to be over the child object, the CLICK event fires.I was disappointed to discover that event.stopImmediatePropagation doesn't interrupt the CLICK event from registering the MOUSE_DOWN as part of its detection cycle. It makes sense that it doesn't but still... disappointing.A MouseEvent.CLICK consists of detecting a MOUSE_DOWN on the object and then if it's followed by a MOUSE_UP without leaving the object, he event fires. I had hoped that by cancelling the MOUSE_DOWN event, it would clear that out of the CLICK buffer, but no such potatoes, alas.This could all be handled with a flag and a couple more MOUSE_UP and MOUSE_DOWN handlers, but dang, smacks of effort

This particular scene I want the user to use all 3 Electric mixers before moving on to the next scene.
I have done it now so that the user must klick on mixer at least 3 times. But it can be the same clip.
The problem I have is to single out each clip. So that if the clip have been clicked once. The counter for that clip is disabled.
Hope you can understand what I mean.
Code:
myVar=0;
function dragSetup(clip, targ) {
clip.onPress = function() {

I have a MovieClip (call it base_mc) which is under a bunch of other MovieClips (call them subclips). The MovieClips on top are all mouseEnabled with MOUSE_OVER, CLICK, etc, event handlers. I want to capture the event of MOUSE_OVER (or ROLL_OVER) on the base_mc as well. Any time I am over one of the subclips I am also over the base_mc clip. How can I capture this event?

Just wanted to ask if there is any advantage for either using mouse click event or touch tap events, when writing apps for mobiles or tablets (for the iphone especially)?
I know that both of them should work fine, but in term of performance, is anyone better? Are there any things I should be aware of when choosing either?
By the way am using actionscript3 to implement the app.

i'm trying to make a scrollable box, when a mouse enters and STAYS on "wrapper"'s area, "pubsBox" moves 10 pixels to the left.
<mx:Canvas id="wrapper" height="80" width="750">
<mx:HBox id="pubsBox" horizontalGap="10" height="80" width="100%" />
</mx:Canvas>
My problem is that I'm not sure how to make the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER work, to recognize that the mouse is still ON the area and so pubsBox should continue to move 10 pixels to the left every second. I understand that i have to use a Timer, but what I'm concerned about is the fact that I can't get Flex to recognize that the mouse is still OVER "wrapper" and continue firing the event.

Is there any reason why a MouseEvent.CLICK would affect only 1 of 5 items, whereas a MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER and MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT affect 5 of 5 items when each event listener is applied exactly the same way?For some reason, of the 5 images I've imported, only the last image is able to be clicked and have click actions applied, yet it is able to receive the ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT messages. So that leaves me thoroughly confused.
Here is the code I'm using, I'd greatly appreciate your help ---

I am trying to add a simple "getURL" type of functionality to a movieclip so that when it is clicked on, the user is taken to a url. i have tried 3 or 4 different ways to do this that all work when i test the movie clip in flash. However, when i embed the swf in a webpage, the click function does not work.I created a function:
Code:
function gotoPage(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://www.metteradvertising.com/marketing-help.html');
navigateToURL(targetURL);
}
and I'm calling it this way ("Bmeasure" is the movieclip name):
Code:
Bmeasure.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoPage);
am i not able to attach "click" functionality to a movieclip?

I am using an event listener for both rollOut and rollOver to a button, on roll over it populates a text field, roll out clears the field, however I would like on click to populate the field and leave it persistant untill another roll over event happens, curently the roll_out event takes priority and when I move my mouse it clears the field, regardless of click.
what is the best way to cancel the roll_out event?

I have the following code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
var mouseWheel_mc:MouseWheel_mc = new MouseWheel_mc();
var over:Boolean=true;
addChild(mouseWheel_mc);
[Code]...
there is a MovieClip named mouseWheel_mc which is being called at runtime from the library with 30 frames in it, sequential animation frames.I would like the MouseWheel motion to play these frames forward or backward depending on which direction the mousewheel is being pulled or pushed.
Everything works just fine, but the problem is that the event won't start until you actually click in the SWF window (inside). I thought I could remedy that by using an Event.INIT or Event.ACTIVATE call but neither of those remedy the situation.
How can I get the event to fire once the SWF is in the browser without having to first click within the SWF?

is it not possible to have both CLICK and DOUBLE_CLICK on the same display object? i'm trying to have both for the stage where double clicking the stage adds a new object and clicking once on the stage deselects a selected object.
it appears that DOUBLE_CLICK will execute both itself as well as the first CLICK functions in the path toward DOUBLE CLICK (mouse down, mouse up, click, mouse down, mouse up, double click).in other languages i've programmed with there was a built-in timers that set the two apart. is this not available in AS3?
UPDATE:here's some code. essentially what i would like is have one or the other, not both with double click
stage.doubleClickEnabled = true;
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, twoClicks, false, 0, true);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, oneClick, false, 0, true);

When I listen to mouse click event on the stage, it seems it's not always responding to my mouse click event. what I have is:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Test);
function Test(event:MouseEvent):void
{
trace("test");
}
I usually have to click a few times randomly on the stage to get the trace statement.
I thought when I add this event listener to the stage, it should respond to any mouse click within the swf area, no?

I have a button with a MouseEvent.CLICK listener. The CLICK event is being triggered when the button is pushed, mouse is down while rolled out, then released when rolled in on the button again. I do not want this to happen, the click event should not occur when the button is being dragged.
My flash file contains a large amount of buttons and click listeners, I would like to solve this problem with as little code as possible. What is the simplest solution to this problem?
