Why does this code
mySound.addEventListener(Event.ID3, myID3Handler);
cause the myID3Handler to run twice ?!
I also notice that values provided to the handler are not the same, actually the second being the correct one.
My class is dispatching 2 events. One event is captured by another class, and the second event not.I have 2 classes. Class1 creates an object of Class2 and calls a function to load an xml. When xml is loaded class2 dispatches a Complete event. This event is listened by Class1 and then it calls another function of Class2. When the second function executes completely Class2 dispatches second event. Now the problem starts. Class1 is not able to capture this second event. Whereas while dispatchEvent is called from class2, it return true as a notification that the event is dispatched successfully.
View 6 RepliesYou got an eventlistener for an object that can dispatches events in intervals of 0.2ms.And if the eventhandler would need 0.5ms for his operation, what would happen? (listener and handler are in the same class).Would the last event overwrite the event before? In my case, I get some data from a xmlSocket, and I thought, that some datastrings can come in quicker than to work it off in my handler.

View 8 RepliesTrying to put some event listeners for the "resize" event, evidence suggests that the only object dispatching "resize" event is the stage, right? Moreover, since it is at the top of display list, the event does not travel anywhere else but to the object that registers a listener directly?

If you draw a movieclip (with a 3d rotation on it) to bitmap, eventlisteners will always dispatch rollout and rollover for that movieclip (on mouse over). A solution could be to set the matrix3d = null ,draw, and then apply the original matrix3d, but I can't do this in my project 'cause all clips is a 3d object to a parent 3d object that gets drawn to a bitmap every frame.
To see the bug, copy this example code into the first frame on the stage (CS4 flashplayer 10).
var bmp:BitmapData = new BitmapData(100, 100); //setup a dummy bitmap
var bmpContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
bmpContainer.addChild(new Bitmap(bmp));
var box:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
addChild(box);

I have editable grids which are 2-way binded to my model. What I want is to validate my data when user edits any cell before it get updated in model. I have applied my validation at ItemEditEnd handler, but, I want to apply validation in between itemEditBegin and itemEditEnd events.
View 1 RepliesI hava a custom component and it contains a child icon. If I add a mouse-click event listener to both component(click-listener1) and icon(click-listener2), the event dispatched sequence is click-listener2, then click-listener1. I can understand it. But if I add a custom event to component (listener1), and mouse-click event to icon(listener2), when icon is clicked, the component will dispatch the custom event. In my test, the event dispatched sequence is listener1, then listener2. It doesn't match with event-bubbles rule.
In my opinion The custom event is dispatched in listener2, which triggers listener1. Why event flow sequence is not listener2, listener1?
In component.
icon.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, iconClickHandler);
private function iconClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

View 1 RepliesI am trying to understand event propagation in Flex framework and have a following doubt on it:
Scenario: I have a built-in component DropDownList on change of which I want to create a custom event refreshPreview and want to propagate it to a custom component PictureComponent.
In the custom component's mxml, I have added the Metadata directive as follows to register a refreshPreview event with the compiler
<fx:Metadata>
[Event(name="refreshPreview", type="flash.events.Event")]
</fx:Metadata>
Layout Details: In my main mxml application I have laid out DropDownList and the custom component such that both are siblings (i.e. have a common indirect parent)
e.g.
<s:Group id="contentGroup">
<s:Group id="formGroup">
<s:Form x="11"
[Code]....
I am seeing that the refreshPreview event is not getting propagated to the custom component.
I doubt this is because the built-in component is a sibling of the target (where the event got generated) and not a parent. how to make refreshPreview event propagate to custom component?
printableInvoice.addEventListener(batchGenerated, printableInvoice_batchGeneratedHandler);Results in this error: 1120: Access of undefined property batchGenerated. I have tried it as FlexEvent.batchGenerated and FlashEvent.batchGenerated.

This is NOT duplicate of my earlier post (its is slightly different)But this is similar issue with similar error but its not the same error The error I am getting now is below while dispatching the custom event from my custom component
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert events::MapEvent@a74ab51 to flash.events.MouseEvent.
dispatchEvent(new MapEvent(MapEvent.CLICKED_ON_MAP));
Note: The error in my earlier post is giving below error message
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@81ecb79 to com.events.ShopEvent
The difference here are two things, the earlier error is while converting flash event to custom event and now this one is while converting custom event to flash event and secondly, I have no clue why it is trying to convert to the mouseevent where I am just dispatching my custom event with proper listeners.
This is my custome event

I have a textfield in flex with a focusOut event on it. I can type in the box and in Firefox and Chrome when I click elsewhere on the page (outside the flash element) the focusOut event will be triggered. However in IE8, the texfield never loses focus when you click elsewhere on the page, outside the flash object. I've tried with focusManager.browserMode set to true and false with no difference (I believe that effects incoming focus anyway).
View 1 Repliesoverriding clone() while creating custom events?I read in the Flex cookbook that we need just in case we want to redispatch this event. Does this exactly means that when we want event to be bubbled up the display hierarchy , at that time our custom cloned event should be dispatched and not the Event object.
second - whats the need of metadata tag -
[Event(name="modelEvent", type="com.abc.data.model.ModelEvent")]
public class LoginModel extends EventDispatcher
I understand we need to extend EventDispatcher in case we want to dispatch evnet from class.. but In what cases i would need to specify the MetaData TAg
Third is.. If i write -- "dynamic customEventClass extends Event".. Is there any use of Dynamic i can make?
I am using modules in flex, to build different parts of my webapp. What I need now, is a way these modules can communicate with each other on events. What really is happening is ,that there is a central module, which then will take care of loading other modules and passing data to and fro. But, coding for each part to delegate events to each of these loaded modules from the central module and back would be a big nightmare.
What I really want to do is have a global event bus for it. Are there any specific libraries, already existing for such a process. Also, I would be using MVC, so it should also take care between events form the model to the view and vice-a-versa.
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.

Or the only way to do this, it's doing a custom preloader??, like the link bellow:

I use a custom component for painting a graph on a canvas, now when the windows is resized I want to determine the actual width and height of my canvas to resize the graph as well, therefore I used the resize event I can use in mxml.Now I detected in my method for resizing I only receive the width and height of the canvas just before resizing not after. When grabbing an edge of my window and moving it slowly for resizing this does not matter but when maximizing or minimizing the windows, this plays a more important role.
