I have a hidden DisplayObject (myObj.visible = false;). I've provided a listener: myObj. addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myHandler);By myHandler does never fires. It seems that MouseEvent.CLICK is not delivered for hidden objects...How can I listen to MouseEvent.CLICK for my hidden object?

ive got several movie clips as buttons in a parent movie clip that i hide/show. each button has its own instance name. even when the parent movie clip is invisible the button clips still get onmouseup events. when the parent is visable i dont even need to click on the movie clip to get the event to fire. even though i put the functions on diffrent clips they all fire, here are two of them:
Code:
_root.menuLevelUp.btnShipHealthUp.onMouseUp = function()
{
trace("healthUp");[code]....
whenever i click even when the parent clips is not visable i get

View 2 RepliesI am having some trouble with MOUSE_WHEEL delta values. It seems like the event doesn't fire unless I REALLY spin the dammed wheel. Which makes sense because the only values I get range from 3-30. I was hoping to catch 1-3 as well because if I just spin a few notches, nothing triggers and the app feels sluggish.FYI every other program on my machine feels those 1-notch spins just fine so it's not the mouse.Will AS3 not fire if the delta is less than 3?Here is the code
private function handleMouseWheel(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace(e.delta);
// Output is always more/less than +/- 3 [code].....
I'm trying to create a Thumbnail class that extends MovieClip and have run into a "loop". When I hover a cursor over a Thumbnail instance it fires an over and an out event. That is, that happens if I add any kind of filter to the Thumbnail class in the over event, if I leave that out and trace the code it fires only the over event and waits till the cursor leaves the thumbnail. I have tried adding the GlowFilter and the ColorMatrixFilter with the same effect: premature ROLL_OUT.
View 8 RepliesTracing the keyCode for the 'a' key (65) only works once for KEY_DOWN events and sometimes KEY_UP behaves in the same way, making development a pain when trying to do things quickly.

I have a block of code that I want to execute directly after a url is known to be valid. What I mean by 'valid' is that the program has checked to see if that filepath actually exists. This could be accomplished by a COMPLETE listener, because after all, a loader couldn't finish loading its content if the referenced file didn't exist, but I want it to happen before any of the bytes begin to get sucked in. I have also tried the HTTPS_STATUS event, with a conditional saying "if the status is this [some non-error status number], then run this block of code." This would have worked great, except that different environments produce different network codes, and some even can't distinguish between errors and non-errors, just returning 0's no matter what. Because of this, I can't write a conditional that works no matter what browser....
View 1 RepliesI have created a player that loads video FLV files and plays them in a sequence. On loading the videos I retrieve the total video time by stream.client.onMetaData = ns_onMetaData;" and in an EnterFrame event I check whether the video playtime is equal the totaltime. If the video playtime is equal to the totaltime then the player loads the next video. Sometime, even if the video ends, the playtime and total time doesn't match. So to fix the issue, I decided to put an event cue point (END) at end of each video FLV. So whenever the FLV fires the END event, the player removes the current video and loads the next one.
Suppose the video total time is 44:00. The cue point is also at 44:00 in the FLV. So whenever the player gets the END event from the FLV then it loads the next one. Now the issue is, if I pause the video at 42:00 and wait for 2 sec, the player gets the END cue point and jumps to the next video. When I paused the video the timer says "42:00 of 44:00". The timer doesn't increase, that means the video has actually paused. But I still don't understand that why I'm getting the END cue point where the video has not reached the time.

View 6 RepliesVariable called "switch" has a boolean value of "false".Event.ENTER_FRAME event listener method fires, and calls method "onEnter()".Within the "onEnter()" method, the "switch" variable is set to boolean "true".My question: What is the best way to make sure "switch" variable is called, and set, only once during the ENTER_FRAME event?
Is it as simple as checking if "switch" is false, and then setting it to true... Does it matter that I would be doing the if() for every frame of the Event.ENTER_FRAME?

Basically, the idea is after the movie finishes playing, you should get redirected to a new page. The problem is that sometimes the page redirects immediately (before the movie is played). The movies are being served up from a media server and this seems to happen more consistently with newly uploaded movies. Sometimes it takes several attempts to actually play the movie all the way through, but over time, the movies generally start to play problem-free.
How can I access to an object who fires an eventListener event?
Let's say I have a mc:
var element = new MovieClip();
which has an eventlistener:
element.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, elementEventHandler);
[Code]....
So that is what I want to achieve... Recover the object who fired the event and then do crazy things with it (in this example, add another object in it).
pd: yes, I know I can directly use the var element in this snippet, but in the real code I'm generating the mcs in a loop, according to a xml file.

The code above works when I run it from FlashDevelop but fails when it runs from a website. The domain is protected by a crossdomain file which allows the website I'm calling it from.

I am trying to make a search interface that behaves much like searching in iTunes and Spotlight in that the list is updated instantly as the user types something in the search field. However, I would like the lines that result to be clickable and to fire actions inside flash (as opposed to launching an URL). Is this possible?I've gotten the basics down. Here's what it looks like and here's the source FLA file. The results are displayed as tabbed lines of text in a single text field. Is there any way to make these lines clickable without replacing this way of displaying the results with multiple, duplicated button/mc-intances?
