Flash :: Bubbling Work For Custom Event And Object Hierarchy?
Jun 14, 2011I have searched on the Internet and didn't find any clue on how to do so, any idea ? I don't want flex only flash (my objects are not visual components).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Event Bubbling From Non Display Object?
Dec 17, 2009I have a utility class that I use to load images that never gets added to the stage and is extending EventDispatcher, it simply loads the data and spits it back out on request.
I want to add a custom event to track loading progress from outside the class. The events are firing but not (i think) bubbling because they aren't in the display list.
Is there a good way around this? I was thinking: Can I have a non display list object tell a display object to send the custom event for it?
Flash :: Determine The Display Object Hierarchy An Event Will Capture/bubble Through?
Jun 7, 2011In Actionscript 3 is there any way to determine the precise display object hierarchy an event will traverse through when dispatched from a given object? The object is not necessarily a display object.Although I could imagine this actually being useful somehow, in my particular case it is a learning exercise. I'm trying to master the event system in flash and have some locations where I'm very curious what path an event will take when I dispatch it.

View 2 RepliesJavascript :: Capturing Bubbling Key Event From Flash?
Oct 28, 2009In IE, if flash has focus, and receives a keydown event, it does not appear to bubble the event up through the DOM (I can't capture the event by listening on document, however the same listener can capture key events from html siblings, so I know my listener is working).
However, some other plugins on the page (I am looking at you windows media player) still respond to key events that initiate in flash (and I need to prevent that from happening)! It seems that the key event initiated in flash takes the bubble express highway straight to the top (where the top is whatever is above document in the DOM hierarchy). I have tried terminating the events in as3, and tried different wmodes... neither approach works.
Actionscript 3 :: Stop Event Bubbling In Flash?
Feb 2, 2011I have a MovieClip which contains 4 Buttons:When the user mouses out of the container, it shoulddisappear:this.resolutions.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,this.resolutionsClose);When the user mouses out of any of the 4 Buttons, the event bubbles up to the container. This is not the expected behavior. How do I stop this propagation when none of the 4 Buttons have mouse out handlers?
View 3 RepliesJavascript :: Event Not Bubbling In Some Browsers When Clicked On Flash
Jul 21, 2010Environment:
Windows 7,
Internet Explorer 8,
Flash ActiveX 10.1.53.64,
wmode=transparent
Just wrote a small test page that you can load in IE and Firefox or any other Browser.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
[Code].....
So clicking any colored shape should produce an alert (except for the green one in IE, not sure why but I hope that's off topic and not related to my issue).
Clicking the Flash container in Firefox will work Perfectly fine. You should get alert boxes in this order containing: span, div and body. Flash bubbles the event to the HTML. But this is not happening in IE.
So why is Flash in IE not bubbling events to HTML?
Edit: As mentioned by Andy E this behavior can also bee seen in Google Chrome which to my knowledge is not using ActiveX to embed the flash movie into the page.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Bubbling Vs Capture - Listen To An Event From A Deeply Nested Children
Mar 10, 2012I know the difference between the two, but I never felt the need to use the bubbling feature. If I want to listen to an event from a deeply nested children, I always use the capture phase. Could someone explain to me why I should rather use bubbling, its advantages, and maybe show me a situation in which bubbling would be the only solution?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Reverse Event Bubbling?
Mar 16, 2011I have a movie clip (cover) which covers another movie clip (stuff).I have set up Mouse Over on the Cover movie clip so that when you mouse over it, it tweens off of the Stuff movie clip.Then i have Mouse out set up on the Stuff movie clip so when you mouse out of it, the Cover clip tweens back in..
Now when I mouse over a MC that is inside the Stuff movie clip..it triggers the mouse out for the Stuff movie clip. this is undesired.I need my mouse to be active inside the Stuff movie, so mouseChildren = false doesn't work,because i then can not click on things inside the stuff movie clip.Right now i have managed to work around this by running a loop for each child inside the stuff, adding an event listener and telling the tween to stop on those events,but this won't work for children of those children without looping again.. and the children of those children's children would need looped as well... The question is.. How do I make a child movie clip not trigger the mouse out for it's parent(s)?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Not Bubbling To Stage?
Oct 26, 2009I have a content clip that gets replaced by a movieClip from the library every time a button is clicked. Some of the content sections contain video. Within the video is a custom event firing that bubbles up through its parent clips all the way until it gets to the clip that was added to the stage on user click. It never goes beyond the content clip to the stage, where I need the listener. Isn't an event supposed to bubble all the way up to the stage? Why would it ever stop?The code is in 10 different places in 10 different files or else I'd post it.

Actionscript 3 :: Flex 4 Disptaching Custom Event From Custom Component (why Flex Converting Custom Event To Mouseevent)?
Mar 2, 2012This 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
