Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Event Listener For When A Movieclip Is Stopped

Oct 24, 2011

I'm thinking of making a movieclip which stops itself at certain points (just with stop(); at certain keyframes in the movieclip timeline), then the user is prompted to continue the clip.

What is the best why to listen for the stopping of the movieclip? I think I want an event listener that detects when the movieclip is stopped, but I don't know if there is one.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener Only On MovieClip?

Aug 3, 2010

I've an array of movieclips created via code that have some textfields. Then i have added some listeners to the movieclips.

Here the code:

Code:
arrNot[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, titoloOver);
private function titoloOver(e:MouseEvent){
var nome:String = e.target.name;
TweenMax.to(curs,1 ,{y:contMain.getChildByName(nome).y + 23});
}

This code moves a cursor calculating the y coordinate depending the moviclip that is mouse overed. Now the movieclips have some textfields so when i mouseover the movieclips all works ok but when i mouseover the textfield i receive a #1009 error.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Reference A Movieclip Without An Event Listener?

Dec 15, 2009

I have a project with 15 dynamically created MovieClips on. The clips are images loaded from XML.As each one is loaded I assign an id to it. screen.id = [i];Now normally I would add an event listener to trigger each of these to "Do Something" but I want it to be an automatic process. So I have set up a function to create a random number between 0 and 14 with the idea that I can use the number to help reference the MovieClip with the id of the randomly generated number...But I don't know how to go about this Something like...

Code:

Select allprivate function randomNumber(low:Number, high:Number):Number
{
var low:Number = low;
var high:Number = high;

Actionscript 3.0 :: Remove An Event Listener From Within A Nested MovieClip?

I have ActionScript inside a movie clip running a scrollbar.[code]...

I need to remove the Stage Event Listener (stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, thumbUp)) when I switch menu items. How can I call the removeEventListener for the stage from outside the movieclip?

The parent movieclip is called about_mc and when you click away to another page it tweens out. I really just want to about_mc.stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, thumbUp).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener For When A Movieclip Is Finished Playing?

Jan 31, 2010

I have a slideshow that loads an image via XML, then adds said image to a placeholder inside a movie clip, and then proceeds to play a little sliding animation via the movie clip. What I need to do is figure out how to get an event that the movie clip is finished and sitting back on frame 1 so that I can run a "nextImage" function that loads the next image from the XML. I'm pretty new to actionscript, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to properly handle what should be a simple event. If I put a simple listener at the end of the movieclip, it doesn't talk to the main script at all?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Scaling Down A Movieclip On MOUSE_DOWN Calls A Registered ROLL_OUT Event Listener?

Apr 12, 2010

I'd like to simply scale down a movieclip (that I'm treating as a button) when the user presses their mouse button.  When users release the mouse button, I want my button to scale back to it's normal (.scaleX = .scaleY = 1) size.  My button also has listereners for a ROLL_OUT event to turn off (.alpha = 0) a highlight movieclip that rests atop movieclips showing the different states the button can be in.
 
When I roll over the button, the higlight comes, but there is an annoying flicker problem.  For some odd reason, when I press the mouse button the ROLL_OUT event handler function is called, yet I didn't scale the movie down enough for the cursor to be off of the actual button itself.  I do not want that flicker.  I'm not sure why ROLL_OUT is being called even though the event is clearly a mouse down, and within the mouse down event handler I am scaling the button movie clip, but not enough to remove out from under the cursor.  In other words, if I click the button at its registration point, a flicker appears.
 
Here's my code. 

//this add all the appropriate listeners to the button        private function addMouseListeners()        {            this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOver);            this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDown);            this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, rollOut);            this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUp);        }    

[code]....
 
why my rollOut function is being called when the mouse button is pressed, and called once more when the mouse button is released.

Flex :: Refire A Stopped Event

Oct 11, 2011

I have several event listeners configured to listen for a click event on a control.I don't know if this is a correct assumption, but I believe I have one configured to listen "first". After the first listener catches the event, it will pass control to the remaining listeners (if needed). This basically tells the user "you're trying to navigate somewhere, but you have unsaved changes, do you want to 1) save and continue 2) discard changes and continue 3) return and don't continue.Here's the sample code for setting up the listeners,[code]The call for dispatchEvent(unsavedEvent.clone()); doesn't seem to work (or at least the event is not being captured by continueOn) At first I tried redispatching the event without the clone() call, but that didn't work either.

Flash :: Return Array From Event Listener?

Feb 6, 2010

I have an event listener applied to an xml load and it currently traces out the values it grabs which is fine, but what I want it to do is return an array for me to use. I have the Array creation and return working from "LoadXML" (it returns the array) but I can't get this to work with an event listener.The event listener runs the "LoadXML" function fine, but I have no idea how to take the returned array for use, this is an example of how my event listener works right now:xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());and my assumption of how I would take the array (this doesn't work):var rArray:Array = xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());so instead I tried the following:

xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function():Array{
var rData:Array = LoadXML(datahere);
return rData;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Proper Listener On Tween Event Inside Mouse Event

Feb 23, 2011

My 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.
