Actionscript 3 :: Flash Button Eventlistener Array Bug
Jun 11, 2010
I have an array of 12 buttons on a timeline that when first visiting that part of the timeline, get a CLICK eventlistener added to them using a for loop. All of them work perfectly at that point.When you click one it plays a frame label inside the specific movieClip and reveals a bio on the corresponding person with a close button and removes the CLICK eventlisteners for each button, again using a for loop. The close button plays a closing animation, and then the timeline goes back to the first frame (the one with the 12 buttons on it) and the CLICK eventlisteners are re-added, but now only the first 9 buttons of the array work. There are no output errors and the code to re-add the eventlisteners is exactly the same as the first time that works. I am completely at a loss and am wondering if anyone else has run into this problem.All of my buttons are named correctly, there are absolutely no output errors (I've used the debug module) and I made sure the array with the buttons in it is outputting all 12 at the moment the close button is clicked to add the eventlisteners back.[code]

I'm trying to use an array to add a click listener to an existing Button. Black,Blue...etc are the button Names. the location of the nested button would be: this.mc1.mc2.contents.m3.black.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doThisFunction);
var myArray:Array = new Array ("black","blue","green","orange");
for(var k:int =1; k<myArray.length; k++){
var kmc:MovieClip = (myArray[k] as MovieClip);

I have an array of buttons in a public var in _model.btnArray. I want to make a function that i can pass an index number parameter that will add addEventListener to the button at that index and removeEventListener to all other buttons in the array. The function creates a tempArray:Array and assigns _model.btnArray to it. Then it addEventListener to the index passed as a parameter to the function. Then it splices the passed index out of the tempArray and then loops through spliced tempArray to remove all the EventListeners from it. which should be the listeners on all the buttons except for that one spliced. but this isn't working, its giving me an error and i don't know why.should this be working or is it just wrong?
Code:
function addRemoveEventListener(num:Number){
var tempArray:Array = _model.btnArray;

i can't seem to be able to make a EventListener work with a normal number value.my code is very basic, I'm making a game and i want it to update the stats text when the value changed, but when i try to add a event listener to my value it just kills all my code and nothing executes after it.In my Player.as i have:
Code: Select allfor(var j=0; j < stats.length; ++j) {
stats[j] = 0;
stats[j].addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, statschanged, false, 0, true);
}[code]........
when my flash gets to the addEventListener part of the code it just STOPS, nothing executes after it.Does anyone know a way i can make an event listener for a value that's in (or out) of an array?

I want to add a function from an array to my addeventlistener .. so I can add different functions within a loop..
Code:

I want to have a class(Generator) generating MovieClips and inside these Clips are buttons with Listeners. Another class(Main) can get the Clips generated and add them to the stage. The problem is if I add the Listener to the Button in the Generator class, i don't get the event. I do get the Event if I get the Button from the Generator and add the Listener in the Main class.

I have encountered a new issue in my limited Actionscript 2 knowledge. I have a set of Radio Buttons, True and False and the user has to be alerted as to whether their choice is correct or wrong upon clicking any one of the two. Now, I have tried assigning an event handler to one radio button:
var true_rb:Object = new Object();
true_rb.click = function(eventObj:Object) {

I'm working with a main .swf and several external .swfs that are loaded into the main timeline via a movieclip. Is it possible to add an eventListener in a main .swf's timeline that listens for when the external .swf reaches its last frame? What I would like to do is when the external .swf reaches its last frame, the next button on the main .swf's timeline would add the [glow] filter to the next button.

At the moment I have this in Actionscript (for Flex) to create 26 labels in a BorderContainer (ID letters):
[Code]...
But when I click on a letter, only the letter Z is sent to the function getUsers. So when I'm creating labels from a for loop, only the eventlistener works for the last created label. How do I fix this?

I've read that the best way to "comunicate" with dynamicly created movieclips is by pushing them into an array.
For example:
Code: Select allvar itemArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
var newItem:MyItem = new MyItem();

I'm pretty new to AS3 and am getting my feet wet as fast as I can. Currently I have a fairly simple thing I'm trying wherein I will have a button_mc that on ROLL_OVER, it triggers a function that will make another MC move. That part I can do- my question though is how can I have multiple button/movieclip "sets" that are able to call the same function? As an example, I'd have "button1_mc" trigger "shape1_mc", "button2_mc" trigger "shape2_mc", and so on. I want to avoid having to have separate sets of functions for each button/movieclip pair. I hope that makes sense.
Here's where I'm currently at with the first eventListener and corresponding function. You can see how in the function I have a specific MC (shape1_mc) named, which of course I'm trying to avoid, as I will likely have 5-10 similar buton/mc pairs like below. Is there a way to call the movieclip (shape1_mc) in the event handler itself without having to name it in the function?

I have coded a map that when a province object is clicked on, it should move to the center of the screen and grow a percentage of the width, along with displaying a number of different things.
The problem is that in order for the image to resize it needs to be clicked on twice. It moves, and all of the children display just as they were designed to do, but the resize doesn't work on the first click.
menuItem4_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
public function onClick(mc:MouseEvent):void {
menuItem4_mc.width = width * .65;

First i used to work on AS2 but i have converted to AS3 to benefit the new features .
And here is my problem : i have a function where i will create in it several buttons each one do different task but each task is so small that can be only one statement like changing the value of some variable.
Do i have to make an EventListener and a handle function for each button !! i have tried that and it made my code very messy , can't i just make something like that : button1.onClick = function(){} like AS2 ? Or is there a class i can use to make something like ?

I've got as far as adding multiple buttons to the stage with AS3 and giving them unique instance names, but now I have a problem. There is no limit on the amount of buttons that could be present, there could be one or one hundred so I can't hard code.
How would I go about creating event listeners for each button? I tried pushing each instance name into an array then looping through but that gave me an error about how the buttons didn't exist, so it can't listen.

I have class ShowCase that inherite from my class ContentMC (that inherite from MovieClip). In the class ShowCase I have an EventListner that calls a function in the parent class ContentMC. But I get an error that says "Access of undefined property restoreMenuItem".
This is my eventlistner in ShowCase.as.
showcaseItem.addEventListener("CONTENTMCCLOSED", restoreMenuItem);
Here I get the error, it doesn't find the function restoreMenuItem.
The function restoreMenuItem is in ContenMC and looks like this.
public function restoreMenuItem(evt:Event):void
{
}
How do I call this function that's in the parent?

I have an array example from a Flash Connection tutorial, and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to add a bit of code to count through the user's clicks.
What I'm trying to do is count the clicks, so that once someone has clicked on all 5 buttons, something happens.
Code:
var clipArray:Array = [home_mc, about_mc, products_mc, services_mc, contact_mc];
for (var i:int = 0; i < clipArray.length; i++) {
clipArray[i].buttonMode = true;

I'm loading images via a URLRequest and Loader classes and I want to manage the image when the request is complete. The example below doesn't fire the event when it is complete. The same code would work find for a URLLoader, but not a Loader object. Basically the image loads and the event listener is never fired. Can anyone tell me how to get an event to fire when Loader finishes loading an image.
var imageReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.google.com/images/nav_logo29.png");
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();

I made an swf to demonstrate the problem and you can try it here: [URL] But this is the problem: I have an input textfield (type input) and output textfield (dynamic not selectable) and eventlisteners on the input fields. It seems like the TLF does not register the enter-key. Try it for yourself via the link above.My code is:
