ActionScript 3 :: Anonymous Function As Click Handler Is Called Multiple Times Per Click
Aug 16, 2010
I have a button labeled 'blueButton' and I'd like to use an anonymous function to handle the click, like so:
blueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace( "-----click detected-----" );
// now do other stuff
});
Problem is, the click handler is called multiple times per click. The number of times called seems to be random (sometimes 2, sometimes 4, sometimes 3 etc). could I be missing something in my code, or maybe I set up the button wrong?
also I noticed that it seems to always get called once on the first click. After the first click is when it starts getting called additional times, maybe that has something to do with it?

I am trying to make a simple mp3 player using flash. The songs are loaded using an XML file which contains the song list. The following code is inserted into a new keyframe.
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[code]...
The problem over here is in the nextSong() function. I am unable to preserve the value of currentIndex. Although I am incrementing currentIndex every time the function is called, but the value remains unchanged.

I'm trying to start a function from within a click handler that is being triggered when I load some XML, just like this:
Code:
function LoadSomeXML(e:Event):void {
thumbContainer_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, thumbClick);
} function thumbClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
startImgSlider();
} function startImgSlider():void {
trace("ok, now you reached 'startImgSlider()' function !!!");
}
The problem is that I cannot reach the startImgSlider() function with the code above. How to do it right. Has something to do with the scopes?

I am looking for a way to programmatically dissassoicate the click handler function from a button on my mxml component through actionscript code.
Something like what older actionscript let you do,
mybutton.click = null;

Why isn't this working as I am thinking it would:
var i:int=-1;
for each(obj in myData)
{
i++;
[Code]....
If I add i to an array (like myArr.push(i)) it will have 3 elements, 0, 1 and 2.

I created a movieclip animation that only activates when i rollover the movieclip button. I further extended the frames and created another frame animation that i active only when user clicks the button. So i have a roll over/out animation and click animation in the same movieclip in the same layer. Now the problem is that when i click on the button, its supposed to take me to another page, and it does, unfortunately without the click animation. That means after i click on the button its supposed to first finish the click animation and then go to another page. But when i click, it takes me to another page without showing the click animation
SO I tried the If function, but i seem to make a mistake somewhere and i dont know what to do. Now there is no error in script, but onw there is a problem in link, the button finishes the click animation but it does not go to the tarrgeted"about" frame. here's the code

I'm trying to put a label and an image on a UIComponent, side-by-side. I want to use UIComponent for efficiency reasons, and the entire component is more complicated than just a button with an icon.
I'm trying to get a click handler on ther entire UIComponent so that when a click happens on either the label or the image, the same [click] event handler is called. If I add a click handler on the root component, it works, but when I introduce space between the label and the image, the space between them becomes un-clickable. I produce the space by using the move(x,y) method for the label and the image with a small gap between the x/y coordinates.

My idea is after the user click maybe 4 or 5 times, the iconContainer will fade away and loads into the code on frame 2.School only teaches me this. But after one clicks it goes to Frame 2 right away, so my question is How do i do to set gotoAndStop after 5 clicks? And how do I make the iconContainer slowly fades away instead just vanished?

I am new to Flex. What I am looking for here is adding a click handler on all the items created by a SkinnableDataContainer. I tried several things that didn't work, and I have no idea what is the right way to do it.
<s:SkinnableDataContainer id="teamList" itemRenderer="TeamSummaryRenderer">
<s:dataProvider><s:ArrayList>
<fx:Object teamName="A super team 1"/>
<fx:Object teamName="A super team 2"/>
<fx:Object teamName="A super team 3"/>
</s:ArrayList></s:dataProvider>
</s:SkinnableDataContainer>
Furthermore, I don't want to declare the handler in my custom TeamSummaryRenderer component. I would prefer that the handler code stays at application level.

I need a few pointers on how to create multiple buttons programmatically with different event handlers, or rather: differently parametrized event handlers. My real use is a bit more complex, but it comes down to this: I need a button that can delete itself upon getting clicked.
var Buttons:Vector.<Button> = new Vector.<Button>;
var newButton = new Button;
var int = Buttons.push(newButton);

I have some images I would like to display in TileList in Flex. My TileList dimensions are 2 columns by n rows. What I want to do is to display the first item (row 1, column 1) empty and not clickable, and to start displaying my items from row 1, column 2.I also wonder when I create click event for the same TileList, is there a way get an index of clicked element?

add a click event handler to the vertical axis (or any axis) of a barchart in flex? If I add the handler to the BarChart itself, it looks as though the event doesn't fire unless you click on the actual chart, not the axes.

I have a couple of Sprites on my screen and I want to write a single event handler to handle the double click on any of those Sprites. The following approach works for every event type except DOUBLE_CLICK:
[Code]...
To make it work, because in my application I will have lots of Sprites. In my opinion, a single event and the target property are more efficient than hundreds of event listeners. Am I right or should add event listeners to every Sprite?

I have a drop-down menu that stays open when I click it, until I click it again. I want it to close when I click away from it. So I created an event listener of type MouseEvent.CLICK and apply it to the stage.
The obvious problem is, though, that when I click the drop-down menu to make it open, I'm also clicking the stage, which prevents it from opening.
I think there's probably a simple solution to this but I'm stuck. I called stopPropagation() on the drop-down menu and that seems like it should help but it doesn't.

I have a list of 10+ items. when i click back up the list 1 step i call the code below to remove a thumbnail image associated with that list item.
if(indice < count-i){mx.core.Application.application.removethumb.dispat chEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK));
}
HOWEVER: I would like that if - for example i am on item 10 and click to item 4 - all the thumbnails between 4-10 are removed. it it possible to dispatch this click event X number of times dependant on the - count value?? FOR REFERENCE: THIS IS THE CODE THAT REMOVES ALL ITEMS BEYOND THE ONE I HAVE SELECTED:

In one of our project we are using flex for front end, blazeds/java in the backend. Its an existing code where services are prewritten. I have to make calls to 3 services in the backend (basically 3 remote objects) and get their result and store the result in an object and show the data of this object in a view.
Now in front end we are using Flex and Parsley Framework. I was thinking of the following approaches.
1) Making commands for each service call and storing the result in a shared object (model) and then displaying this model in the view. In this approach the problem is some services are needed in some other web pages, but they donot need the same model. How should i handle this scenario ? Should i make a asynchronous remote call and fetch the result and then again dispatch and event with the event object storing the result.
2) Making a service call , wait for the result then make another call and wait for the result and then make other call, not sure if this is the right way ?

I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?
