ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener Calling To The Stage From Movie Clip?
May 22, 2011
I am having problems with a flash project I am working on (flash cs5.5, as3).I have a movie clip with some animation in it, and when it reaches a certain point, I want it to call out a function that is on the first key frame on the stage (as in on the main timeline and not in a movie clip...).This is what I have so far in side that movie clip:
Actionscript Code:
stop();addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onTween);
but I allways get this error message:
"Symbol 'ContMask', Layer 'Layer 6', Frame 124, Line 21120: Access of undefined property onTween."
All I am trying to make it do is to trigger the function (onTween) in the main timeline from the movie clip (ContMask).

if i have a movie clip with an even listener attached to it, is the event listener being removed automatically when the movie clip is removed from the stage or should i always remove the event listeners manually?

I'm in one movie clip and want to remove an event listener set in another movie clip
the following code brings up an error
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at GemoroBovoMetzia23b_fla::Draw_Tool_7/toolsbtn()
So in my toolsbtn function I have written the following code which doesn't work
Object(root).slides_mc.help_btn.remove.EventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Object(root).PresentationHelp);

On the main timeline, I have placed a movieclip (movieclipone) which contains some content. On frame 85 of movieclipone, there is a new keyframe which contains a movieclip that hasn't previously appeared in the movieclipone timeline, (moviecliptwo) which contains four buttons (btnone, et cetera).Is there a way to have code in the main timeline that attaches listeners to the buttons inside moviecliptwo, which, when pressed, trigger a function that increases a counter and tells movieclipone to go to the next frame? This is the code I am using right now:
stop();
movieclipone.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnter);function onEnter(e:Event):void [code]........
When I debug the movie, I get this error at frame 85:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I created a movie clip (mcPopup), deleted it from the stage, and set it to export for ActionScript. I then set up the movie to attatch the clip to the stage and then load a JPEG image into it. Now, I need to be able to let the viewer dismiss the popup, but I cannot figure out how to add an event listener to the movie clip. I tried several different ways, but the popup doesn't seem to be clickable and doesn't respond to clicks (perhaps the image is in the way?) Here is what I have for the code for the thumbnail the visitor clicks to open the popup:
on (release)
{
_root.attachMovie("mcPopup", "popup_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());

I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:

I have the code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(milliseconds, repititions);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, callback);
timer.start();
and if a user click I want to call the callback early. Is there was a way to either force the timer to finish immediately, or stop it and send the TimerEvent.Timer on my own?
I'm looking for something simple like the tween classes fforward().
EDIT
The Solution was
timer.dispatchEvent(new TimerEvent(TimerEvent.TIMER));
I was trying to do timer.dispatchEvent(new TimerEvent("TIMER")); which doesn't work.

I have a situation where I'm calling a function with an event listener attached to a button, which in turn calls a function, which does a number things including calling a second function which resides in a child swf.
Just as an example:
Code:
myBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, firstFunction);
function firstFunction(e:MouseEvent):void{
//I call another function in here (among other things)
externalSwf.stopTimer();
}
"StopTimer" resides in an external swf which for our purposes is called externalSwf and it resets a running timer.
Code:
function stopTimer():void{
myTimer.reset();
}
I'm getting argument mismatch errors, which often have to do with the Event Objects not matching. The event object for firstFunction is a mouse event triggered by a click so I put in e:MouseEvent...what I don't clearly understand is, what type of object event is dispatched when I call the function stopTimer from inside the function firstFunction?

how do I call the re-size action at the first frame? It works great once you resize, but isn't called at the beginning. I've tried a few things, but I'm shooting in the dark at this point.
Code:
sizeListener = new Object();
sizeListener.onResize = function() {
if((Stage.width > 1920) || (Stage.height >1200)){

I'll get into AS3.0 once I have time, don't want to rewrite a bunch of sites right now for something so small!

I need to add an event listener to the stage of this code.. this is for a scrolling slider.. and if your mouse is not over the scroll bar area when you release.. the slider gets "stuck" to the cursor and it won't release. I believe I need to add a listener to the stage for the mouse up state so that if your cursor is elsewhere on the stage and you release the mouse, it will release the slider.[code]...

So I have an array of eight mcs arranged in a circle around a larger mc and I want to make it so the user can click and drag any one of the mcs in the array and it will cause them all to rotate around the larger center mc. I can rotate one clip around using an ENTER_FRAME listener but since I want them all to rotate and not until the user clicks and drags.

I have a Enter_Frame listener to blend in a clip. The event is still running when my clip isn't on timeline anymore. How do I check that or how would I remove the Listener the best way?

I would like to know if it is possible to pass a clip event on to both the function that has a listener, and to the button that is being pressed. I am finding the listener takes it and thus the button doesn't see it.I found a walk around, however, I'd like to know if it is possible say for one clip event to be seen by both objects?For example, with the mouse over a button the listener function detects the event and carries itself out, however, the button misses the event now.

I am using a component in my application, but it turns out, it's slowing my app down big time b/c it doesnt remove an eventListener on stage for mouse move. Is there a way I can remove this listener? I can't get into the class b/c it's a component and it doesnt have any sort of kill function to call.

I am creating animation using as3 in which i duplicate the circle ten time,then pushing into an array and giving random motion. When all the duplicate object goes outside the stage then i should remove the event listener. But right now when one duplicate object goes off the stage the event listener is removed.

I have two buttons one button is calling in a movie clip with tween and then a second button that is also calling in a movie clip into the same spot. I want to make it so that when ever you are calling a movie clip in is that it moves the other movie clip away or that it lands on top of the old one. Here is the code.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
[Code]....
the problem is that it the second movie clip is always on top even though thay are on the same layer.

What is the correct event listener to detect a child added to the stage? I tried:
[Code]...
which doesn't work. I also tried ADDED_TO_STAGE but that doesn't fire it either. Do you know the correct way to detect when the child is added? Perhaps I should be attaching the listener to the parent instead?

There is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.
I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.

How would I write a function in a movie clip to call a movie clip outside the movie clip with the function. Is it similar to calling a movie within a movie, such as below?
Code:
country.nd_state.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, function()
});
Basically, I have a movie clip in nd_state with the click mouse event, when clicked though I want to, for example, control the alpha of a movie clip at the top level of the scene.

I am trying to do is to add an eventListener to a MovieClip that is inside another MovieClip. Things are going like this:I have ParentMovieClip and inside ChildMovieClip. When I load ParentMovieClip I would like to add an EventListener to ChildMovieClip so that when I roll over the mouse on the ChildMovieClip it will play some scenes from the ParentMovieClip.
