Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Dynamic Button Click Handler?
May 29, 2009I need a few pointers on how to create multiple buttons programmatically with different event handlers, or rather: differently parametrized event handlers. My real use is a bit more complex, but it comes down to this: I need a button that can delete itself upon getting clicked.
var Buttons:Vector.<Button> = new Vector.<Button>;
var newButton = new Button;
var int = Buttons.push(newButton);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Determining Which Instance Of A Movieclip Activated The Event Handler
Jul 30, 2009I've been searching this forum and googling for quite some time, and I haven't been able to come up with anything. Anyway, here's a description:I have an array that has multiple instances of the same movie clip. I add them to the stage and then add an eventListener to each one.I have that working fine. The problem is, I'd like to add a filter to them and remove an eventListener once the eventHandler has been activated. However, I have no way to know which instance set off the eventListener. Is there any way I can pass that information into the eventHandler function? Or is there any way I can access the parent from the evenHandler itself? [code]

ActionScript 3 :: Anonymous Function As Click Handler Is Called Multiple Times Per Click
Aug 16, 2010I have a button labeled 'blueButton' and I'd like to use an anonymous function to handle the click, like so:
blueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace( "-----click detected-----" );
// now do other stuff
});
Problem is, the click handler is called multiple times per click. The number of times called seems to be random (sometimes 2, sometimes 4, sometimes 3 etc). could I be missing something in my code, or maybe I set up the button wrong?
also I noticed that it seems to always get called once on the first click. After the first click is when it starts getting called additional times, maybe that has something to do with it?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Click On Button And Display Instance Name?
Jun 28, 2010I've been learning AS3 lately and am trying to put together an interactive map. I've brought in some map data and converted it to individual movie clips, each of which has an instance name that I'd like displayed when each clip is clicked on. ideally an informational box would appear with the name of the clip and some other info that I've specified.
What do I need to script so that if one clicks on a movie clip, the instance name is displayed?

Sep 5, 2011I am creating a library like flash file for our game. I am using adobe flash cs5 with as3 and adobe indesign. I am still very new at flash(a real newbie) and i am wondering if anyone could help me in my problem.
i have a movieclip file named "mainPage". mainPage contains 6 buttons (with a cyrstal design) but lets focus only on 1 button. The 1st button contains the name Art_btn which calls the movieclip artBook when the button is clicked (which is my problem) . I have another movieclip named "artBook". the contents in my artBook are separated or written on each frames that could be called when clicked next or prev.
here is my prob. i dont know what is the right code that would call for artBook when Art_btn is clicked.i tried inserting codes such as loadMovie, gotoAndPlay and addChild but when I test it, the mainPage contents doesnt show up and it produces errors.

Flex :: UIComponent Click Handler?
May 27, 2010I'm trying to put a label and an image on a UIComponent, side-by-side. I want to use UIComponent for efficiency reasons, and the entire component is more complicated than just a button with an icon.
I'm trying to get a click handler on ther entire UIComponent so that when a click happens on either the label or the image, the same [click] event handler is called. If I add a click handler on the root component, it works, but when I introduce space between the label and the image, the space between them becomes un-clickable. I produce the space by using the move(x,y) method for the label and the image with a small gap between the x/y coordinates.

Flex :: Adding Click Handler On SkinnableDataContainer Items
May 21, 2010I am new to Flex. What I am looking for here is adding a click handler on all the items created by a SkinnableDataContainer. I tried several things that didn't work, and I have no idea what is the right way to do it.
<s:SkinnableDataContainer id="teamList" itemRenderer="TeamSummaryRenderer">
<s:dataProvider><s:ArrayList>

ActionScript 2.0 :: Click A Button Twice To Run Movieclip
Sep 26, 2009I was just wondering why it is that after I have clicked a button to run a movieclip, I have to click it twice to run it again? I would like to be able to run it again with just one click - it is for a true and false set of questions. The movieclip is an animation that runs if correct (and there is another if it is incorrect.
Here is the button script
on (release) {
_root.tf1_mc._visible=false;
_root.tf2_mc._visible=true;
_root.tf2_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
comment: tf1_mc runs when the true button is clicked and tf2_mc runs when the false button is clicked. The script above is for the false button

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Click A Button Inside A Movieclip
Jan 6, 2010I have made a sort of drop down menu of a movieclip. There are actually two, the first one named list_over_mc is only to detect when the mouse is in the area for when to drop down the menu (onRollOver) and the other one, list_mc, is holding the menu itself. The problem is that when the menu is down nothing happens when I click the button (now named knapp1_btn). I have tried with another but with the same sort of script (but placed outside of the movieclip list_over_mc) and that works so I'm guessing it is because the button is "over" the other movieclip.

Aug 9, 2009I'm almost 100% sure that I have to write an if, else statement for this. Below is the code I have for a button(movieclip) I created. It is suppose to play an animation when you click on it. Then when you click it again it's suppose to play a second animation that will take it back to the original state. What is happening is, it goes straight to the clicked state without playing the animation. However when you click the second time it plays the animation that takes you back to the original state. Am I correct in believing the only way to get the animation to play on both clicks is to use an if, else statement.
