Actionscript 3 :: Simulate A Click Event ?

But click event isn't trigger it.

I am trying to show the first image of my image gallery when it is loaded. How would I go about simulating a mouse click event that will pass an event value to a function?
[Code]....
I want to program something that does this but I have no idea how to get started or whether it is possible.
1. Using the loader class I will load several images to the stage and set their x / y coordinates accordingly so that they don't overlap.
2. A random x, y coordinate is generated within the document class.
3. If there are any loaders that exist at that location it will be deleted.
If the x, y coordinate was to be generated by a click to the stage, I could do it like this.
Code:
// detect for clicks at the stage level
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, dosomething);
public function dosomething(e:Event) : void
[Code]....
But I want to be able to send a simulated click instead at a certain x y coordinate, and then use the .target to operate on the object that it refers to. Is this possible?
I'm working on a flex mobile project now. I've created a StageWebView and call function loadString()[URL]..
It's a simple sample that if you click on the bookmark and you can get access to it.
But I want to put the content in the tag into a spark list. And get the same result when I click the list which needs some kind of simulation of a click in a webView.
I'm developing Greasemonkey scripts for a website. I do not control the Flash file.
Question: Is it possible to simulate a mouse click on a button/movie clip in a Flash object embedded in a web page? Googling only shows ways to simulate a mouse click on a DOM element, and ways that require the ActionScript to be changed to implement a JavaScript interface. Or is this simply impossible?
Our sales people accepted flash banners without a click tag and then scream in anger when our ads server (openx) didn't count correctly the clicks. I'm looking if exists some way of "simulate" a click tag, I don't know exactly how, maybe with some JavaScript.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to simulate a MouseEvent.CLICK to get fired by just firing first a MOUSE_DOWN followed by a MOUSE_UP.
As per Adobe's doumentation.
"... For a click event to occur, it must always follow this series of events in the order of occurrence: mouseDown event, then mouseUp. The target object must be identical for both of these events; otherwise the click event does not occur. Any number of other mouse events can occur at any time between the mouseDown or mouseUp events; the click event still occurs." [code]...
I'm making a screensaver which includes a game, when the .swf file is converted to screensaver format the only way to exit is to press Escape.
I was wondering if there is any way to simulate a keypress (Escape) when the user clicks a button so that I can also have Exit buttons?
So basically when I used to run my code using Flash cs3 there was a button under view that had simulate download would click it and it would simulate download. Now am using flash builder and had to install some kind of flash debugger player or smth like that and can't find that button now...
View 2 RepliesI'm aware of the .click() method but the click must be on a prezi loaded (flash) so don't really have a html element to use.
What I have instead are the exactly coordinates of the place I want to simulate click on. Is there any way I can do that?
The click must activate a flash element. (A play button)
Note: There is a similar question around that have an answer witch require swf control. I don't have that so that method is not applicable.
One other quick question... what happens if I simulate a click on an element that has display: none. It click on the elements "under" it? (as a normal click would do; and yes I know this sounds funny but I don't know how to explain it otherwise). If yes I was thinking of making a position absolute div, put it on top of flash and use .click(). The problem is that i have a feeling that the click won't be applied on flash.
This is somehow a combination of javascript simulate mouse click on specific position and mouse click somewhere else on page (not on a specific div).
I am using this nyromodal.nyrodev.com to open a modal pop-up windows on the webpage. The thing is it watches for click even on tag that has a certain class. For instance
Code:
<div href="popupform.php" class="nyroModal"></div>
Code:
$(function() {
$('.nyroModal').nyroModal();
});
It obviously doesn't have to be anchor tag, but they say preferably that it is. Anyway I need to implement the same thing inside the flash movie: after click on the button the given modal box pop up. It'd be nice if I can load external content inside the popup windows.

View 4 RepliesI am looking for a way to simulate a mouse hover/mouse click. What's happening is a bar is autoscrolling and checking to see if there is an active button 'below' it. Sort of like a bar rolling along a music staff and checking for notes.
What can I use to accomplish this?
I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.

View 3 RepliesI 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?

View 1 RepliesI'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

View 1 RepliesI have a parent sprite that contains several child sprites. I have attached mouse click and mouse down event amongst others to the parent sprite. And in the listeners I check which child has been targeted using the "event.target" property. However It seems that the mouse click event does not trigger for some reason. Is it possible that the mouse down event is eating up the click event. Is this a know issue in as3 and is there a possible workaround?

I need to be able to know when a container is clicked and when a button on the container is clicked. I am loading a swf with buttons into a container sprite. If I add a click event to the container it does not get triggered when a button in the loaded swf is clicked. if I add mouseChildren false to the container the it gets triggered. What I need is both the button in the loaded swf to work as well as the click event on the container.
View 2 RepliesI want to be able to click on the higlighted area to open a link. However, when I do this in the area on the left, it does the same link for all. What happens is when the link is hovered over, it changes colour, I want to also achieve a onmouse click to open a link. What code do I need and placed where to do that without changeing the current mouseover function of highlighting the sentence in another colour?
View 3 RepliesI have a movieclip with 2 layers (a background layer, and a text box layer), and i have an eventListener for clicking on it. The only problem is the function i call when clicking the MC only works when i click the background, if i click where the text box is in the MC the function doesnt get called?
Is there any way to treat the entire MC as a single entity rather than a layered one, or is there a way to specify which layer is to be clicked, and i can just add an invisible hit rectangle on a new layer in the MC.
