ActionScript 3.0 :: Run Event Listener Through Dynamic Object Call?
Apr 27, 2009I have a movie clip being dynamically added to the stage via an AS3 linkage call:
gameOver_mc = new GameOver();
stage.addChild(gameOver_mc);
The movie loads as required.But when the movie has been added I want the user to be able to press spacebar and a function to run.So in the GameOver.as class I wrote the following:
Code:
package
{
import flash.ui.Keyboard;
[code]...
But as soon as the movie clip tries to load I get the error message: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.I would have thought this would work fine. When I trace the statement in the Constructor function is works. Its only when I try to add an event listener that I get the problems. So am I not allowed to add event listeners from a dynamically loaded class?

Aug 12, 2010Say I have the following function
Code:

but i want to call it from the event listener
Code: button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myVideoFunction);
I cant because it runs off a VideoEvent, not a MouseEvent.The obvious work around is to copy and paste the function and rename this part, or alternativly just make a function such as:

function callMyVideoFunction (event:MouseEvent) {
myVideoFunction(null);[code].....
ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Call On Function
Jul 5, 2011The keyBoard event listeners call on the rotate and unrotate functions and based on the key inputs(A and D) will implement either of the functions and rotate the image or return it to the original upright position. However, I haven't been able to get the function to work. When I press the A or D keys on the keyboard nothing happens. I even put trace() in one of the functions to see if the function will even be implemented but I don't get anything. I put in my Scripts below. Why are the functions not working? Do the eventlisteners fire or are there conflicts? I'm not getting any error messages.
ti.border = true
ti.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onInput);
function onInput(event:TextEvent):void {
if(ti.text.search('a')!=-1) load_image("http://i54.tinypic.com/anom5d.png", "ottefct");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamic Args To Event Listener
Jun 25, 2009I'm new to ActionScript and am having trouble hooking up callbacks to take extra, dynamic args.The basics are: I have a method that takes a couple of parameters, uses a RemoteObject to send an operation to get a third value, and I want to pass all three (the operation result and the original two) to another callback.[code]This does allow passing extra args, but it is adding a new listener each time createMeeting is run. So I would need to remove the old listener, but I don't have a handle on the old callback since it was dynamically created/anonymous (I'm not sure of the correct AS terms).I guess I could create a custom event dispatcher that kept track of the previous listener. But maybe removing and adding new listeners each time is the wrong solution to begin with. How would you set up a listener like this when the extra parameters you want to pass to the callback will be changing?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Click Event Listener Inside Object?
Feb 23, 2009I'm trying to add an event listener inside an object but it doesn't seem to work. other OO languages it makes sense for an object to be able to attach events etc itself rather than have some external action do it.Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Player extends MovieClip {

This gives an error "1120: Access of undefined property MouseEvent." suggesting that I don't have access to MouseEvent from within the instansiated object.What I can do is create an instance of the class from the Document Class for example and then do the following:

I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?

View 13 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Access The Parent Of A Listener From A Listener Object?
Feb 11, 2008I am having a weird problem with scope/reference. I am using a loop to preload a number of thumbs in one go, I am creating a different listener for each one on the fly and then passing event handlers for each one of them. This should not be difficult using a loop, but somehow I cannot access the the parent object on my listener and therefore I can't do much with my thumbs after they are loaded.Here is the relevant segment of my code. myThumb_mc is a temporary variable that does not exist when the loop finishes, you can copy and paste this code to test it though. It should work to that extent. (you'll need an image1.jpg to be in the same directory)
Code:
var myThumb_mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("myThumb_mc", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
myThumb_mc.clipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
myThumb_mc.clipLoader.loadClip("image1.jpg",myThumb_mc);[code].....
The code above works, but it does not look nice and it cannot be the right way of doing this. Long question short, how can I access the parent of a listener from a listener object? ._parent does not work.

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.
