Oct 6, 2009I have a dialogBox with 2 buttons - ok_btn and cancel_btn. The code is in a Class - testDialog.
There are 2 issues:When any of the 2 buttons clicked, they dismiss the dialogBox without sending any alert to the parent (main time-line).How to trap the clicked buttonId in the parent.I have just an idea of the solution as dispatching an event in the child and listen for that event in the parent. But, unfortunately, I don't know how to go about it.
To make my point clear, here is the code:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

ActionScript :: Javascript - Event Listener To Listen "all The Time" Not Just Wait For Any Particular Instance (mouse Click - Keyboard Event) Of Event?
Jul 7, 2011I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.

Could someone explain to me why I should rather use bubbling, its advantages, and maybe show me a situation in which bubbling would be the only solution?

Record And Listen Audio - Specific Duration
Nov 3, 2009I am facing a scenario where I would like the user of my page record their voices from their login where they will purchase certain minutes for recording and as well as for listening. How do I manage the audio frames sent back to the server? Is that possible to only stream audio for a length of 10 minutes, while actual length of audio is 1 hour?
Questions:
- Do I have to write or develop a flash player completely?
- Is there any already developed solution?
- Do I have to use Media Server in this scenario

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can Identical Buttons Listen For Same Event
Mar 19, 2009I have two buttons that listeners for the same event that have identical instance names?For example, I have two buttons which have the same instance name: imageOne.Can those identical buttons listen for the same event? I tried, but only one button responds to the event listener .why do I need two buttons with the same instance name that listens for the same event?because I have a looping scrolling panel of thumbnails, and when you have scrolling panels, we all have duplicate panels inside for looping purposes...so since I have to have two identical panels grouped together to do the loop, I have multiple buttons with the same instance name.and these buttons listen for events...now of course I can rename the other half of the identical buttons with different instance nams, but a problem arises when i want to use an if statement to check to see if that image is already loaded.for example, say I image1 is already loaded, and someone clicks identical thumbnail that has a different instance name, ti would be too complex to write an if statemen to determine whats loaded.

Feb 24, 2011I know there's been quite a few posts about events, but I've run into a problem that I haven't really encountered before, and I've kind of confused myself with all the talk of "bubbles" and "capture" and various complexities of creating custom events, etc...Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how to dispatch a global broadcast style of event.1) If I have a custom class that resides in the Display List (the DispatcherClass), how do I set up this class to broadcast a "global" event?Actionscript Code:1b) If I have another custom class that also resides in the Display List (but in a completely unrelated heirarchy), how do I get this ListenerClass to "hear" the event WITHOUT explicitly referencing the instance of the DispatcherClass like so:
Actionscript Code:DispatcherClassInstance.addEventListener("DispatcherClassEvent", handler, false, 0, true);Is this even possible?2) What if the DispatcherClass DOES NOT reside in the DisplayList?Is it possible to dispatch a "global" style event since there is nothing to "bubble" up through?2b) How would I get a ListenerClass, maybe on the DisplayList, maybe not, to "hear" this event?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Listen For The TextField.text Event?
Apr 15, 2009I am trying to create a text effect using a custom class. The class receives refferences to the TextFields that I want to apply the effect to, an the effect should take place whenever the text is changed in these TextFields. The problem is that Flash doesn`t seem to provide a way of listening for the TextField.text event of a Dynamic TextField... Or does it? Just to clarify: On the stage I have a dynamic TextField named tText. I create a new instance of my class and call MyClass.addTarget = tText, which is supposed to tell my text effect class that it should apply the effect to tText, whenever the .text property changes.
PS: What I have tryied was TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, but apparently that`s for Input TextFields, whenever the user inputs some text. I change my text through code. I have also tryied Event.CHANGE, but that doesn`t seem to work either...
ActionScript 3.0 :: Listen To A Custom Event In Various Classes At Same?
Jul 17, 2011I'm using a electronic device to dispatch events within AS3.
short explanation: -->
Think of these events as a KeyboardEvent.My point is to dispatch an Event (like a Key that is being pressed) so I can listen to this event on EVERY Class I need to.I'm not sure how to instantiate or listen to these events correctly =/
I mean: I want to be able to listen to the key that is been pressed as if that was a global event every Class can receive...
long explanation: --> I'm doing something like this:
1) created a (main) Class that extends a Sprite.
2) created a class (KeyboardInput) that extends the main class.
3) created a class (KeyMap) that extends EventDispatcher.
4) created a class (HomeScreen) that extends a Sprite.
My FLA file is associated to the KeyboardInput Class.This Class creates a listener for the KEY_DOWN KeyboardEvent and instantiate the KeyMap Class that dispatches a CustomEvent:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,function(evt:KeyboardEve nt):void { keymap = new KeyMap(); keymap.setKey(String.fromCharCode(e.charCode)) });[code].....

Flex :: Listen To All Event Types Of An EventDispatcher?
Oct 6, 2010In Flex, is it possible to listen to all event types of an object that's an IEventDispatcher? addEventListener's first parameter is the type, which is a string. In many cases the documentation is not clear what event type it fires. I'd like to attach a generic listener to inspect the events.

Flash :: Using A Custom Event To Listen For Collisions?
Feb 13, 2012I'm new to flash and programming in general but am learning it to make games. I'm currently messing around with hit detection and its not to hard to test in the game tick ( fired from onEnterFrame). What I'm wondering is if it would be possible / useful to create a custom event that i can listen for. And make the eventListener hear when a collision happens. Also would this be better or worse for the cpu than testing the collisions of lots of enemies on a screen?

Aug 2, 2011I have an as3 class with an embedded swf. I need the embedded swf to dispatch an event and have the as3 class action on that event. This used to work fine when the embedded swf was embedded and had been loaded as an external swf, however now that it's embedded the listener never picks up on the dispatched event.
I've created a simplified example below, the 'onMovieComplete' function is never called.
/* I have an external swf file 'movie.swf' with a simple animation in it.
* When the animation hits a frame (frame 70 in this case) it fires a
* Event.COMPLETE (using:- "this.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.COMPLETE));" )
*/

why the event dispatched from the embedded swf is never picked up by the listener?
Actionscript 3 :: Listen For Event Then Return Result From Class?
Jan 11, 2012I have an as3 class that I use for communicating with my Zend_AMF endpoint:
[Code]...
All of this works fine, but it takes a lot of work to use it. I always expect a Response object when calling send() on my request. Ideally I would like to be able to call request.send() and have it return a Response object directly and not having to deal with a listener: var result:Response = request.send(); Is this possible? If so, how can I go about doing this?
