ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener + Variable Value?
Mar 12, 2011I am familiar with event listeners, of course, but I was wondering if it was possible to pass along a variable with an event. For example:
ActionScript Code:

function doSomething(e:MouseEvent, s:String)[code]....
if someone clicks on the mc named 'button' I would like this to trace the text 'yay'.

Feb 13, 2010I headed some problem which can't solve. It's simple. I'm making slideshow, and wanna pictures to be dynamically loaded. List of images is stored in list.xml - a valid xml file. Now, here is piece of the code:
var imgno :Number ; //the var which tells the number of images listed in list.xml
var myXML:XML;
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[Code]....
So, the triggered function processXML cannot change value of any variable which stands out of her. Is there a way to export (in this case) information about amount of images listed in list.xml to some of the variables that I can use later (for example imgno).

In this type of situation where we are not using keyboard, which listener should be added to text field to trigger the change event?

Jul 11, 2009I think I had this issue before I decided to try and learn mvc, which I'm doing right now. it's not a complex problem. But I can't figure it out. First, should I add swf address to my controller? that's what I think, considering it's between the view and the update. But mainly... I feel like it's just going to loop.. for instance. I add the .setValue method on a click handler. and it changes the url and everything.. grand. but during the change it fires off the change event of course.. now how can I make adjustments to my file based on the change event listener, if it's going to fire every time something in my movie sets the value?? as you can see i'm trying to use simplemvc's classes.. i'm just trying to learn though.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Proper Listener On Tween Event Inside Mouse Event
Feb 23, 2011My stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.

Feb 27, 2007I'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0.

Aug 20, 2009This is a very basic question but I can't seem to find an answer. I have a mouse over event and have created the buttons with the mouse overs which is working great. I created the actionscript to go to a specific web page when a user clicks the button. Now, I need to add a label to the mouse over so when someone mouse's over any area of the button, it will show them a particular name for the button.
I am sure that this can be done using actionscript in a mouse event roll over command but I can't figure out what I need to show the text. Here is where I am:

Actionscript 3 :: Use The Same Event-listener Callback For Multiple Event Types?
Nov 18, 2011This might be more of a subjective question, but is it generally best practice to have one dedicated method per event-types that you add an event-listener?
Such as:
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onMouseOver);
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onMouseOut);
//Somewhere else in the code...
[Code].....
And if you had a MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and other relevant MouseEvents event-listeners to watch for, you could even set a switch statement to handle all the various MouseEvent types.
