I want to make a clicked function that recognized the item being click
Here is my try, but It didn't work:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class main extends MovieClip {
[Code]....
I understand that I should set 2 things inside the ClickedF of addEventListener but I really don't know how to do it T_T
I have a boolean variable, projectsLoaded that is set to false when my application loads. As i'm sure you can imagine, when the final project module loads, I set the variable to be true. Is there a way I can trigger a series of functions to run once that variable is set to true?
View 1 RepliesHow to get variable value from inside event function. Variable was declared outside event function.
var StringVar="sample";
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myClickReaction);
function myClickReaction (e:MouseEvent):void{
StringVar="other sample";
} trace(StringVar); /*
It gives me "sample" value and I would get "other sample" value */. That strange because if that would be normal function trace would give me good result.
var StringVar="sample";
function myClickReaction():void{
StringVar="other sample";
} myClickReaction();
trace(StringVar); /* it gives me result as I wanted to have - "other sample" value */
I know also method of passing arguments into event fuction but it not works for me as I would like to
var StringVar="sample";
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(e:MouseEvent){ myClickReaction(e, StringVar) },false, 0, true);
function myClickReaction (e:MouseEvent, StrVar:String):void{
StrVar="other sample";
} trace(StringVar); /* it also gives me "sample" value and I would get "other sample" value */
How to do that correctly?
I have an array and want to add event listener to these. I have cards on stage and define their name using "event.target.name"HP Code:trace(event.target.name)returns the clicked objetc's instance name. But When I want to add event listener to these, some problems occur.I try to use it in so many places like;

I am a newbie in ActionScript 3.0. I want to make flash application that will zoom in object when on mouse over and write same text on the screen and zoom out object a clear text when the mouse is roll out.I have a probelm, when I roll over the object it zoom in the text appers and when I roll out the object returns to the default position. But when I roll over then I rool out and roll over again (not wait until zooming out is completed) the addEventListener does not stop and text is mixed (part pf the text is from first zooming in a nd part of the text ist from second zooming in)
This is my code:
//import the tweenlite packages.
import com.greensock.TweenLite;

inside a MouseEvent.CLICK function, I usually used e.target to address the movieClip that I clicked, but that only work with a movieClip that doesn't have any children (such as text and other symbols) inside. When it has children inside, the e.target return the child inside the Mc but not the Mc itself. The e.currentTarget didn't work, either; it returned [object MovieClip] but not the instance name of the Mc.

I have a movieclip called "cores" in my stage, and inside it a button called for example "bt01"
My fla loads a class called ApplicationMain, and I want to add a listener to the button bt01 into this ApplicationMain, like
bt01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DoSomething);
When I try to run my code I get this error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of.
I already tryed thinks like cores.bt01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, DoSomething); but nothink works.
I'm working on tabs that display different carousel type galleries with previous and next buttons. So, I've got a function that is being called by these tabs and is passed an array based on which tab is selected. Inside of that function, I'm adding an eventListener to the previous and next buttons and using a callback function that works based on the number of items in the array that was passed through the function call. I was running into some strange happenings and using trace statements. Here's what I find: The first call to the function works and traces correctly. The second call traces 2 trace statements; the 3rd call traces 3 statements and so forth. So, I'm assuming that each call is adding another event listener to the buttons.
Here's a condensed version of the function in question:
Code:
Select allfunction loadgallery(picArray){
/* Image Loading code here */
var totalPics = picArray.length;
var picNum = 0;
next_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextPic);
function nextPic (e:MouseEvent):void{
picNum++;
/* Tween actions here */
trace("picNum: " + picNum); //this traces 1x first time, 2x second, 3x third, etc.
}}
Do I need to remove the event listener from the next_button? If so, what's the best way to do that? Or does someone see something else that I"m overlooking? I tried removing the event listener at the beginning of the function, but failed.

Just wrote a small test page that you can load in IE and Firefox or any other Browser.

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.
Is it possible to create an EventListener about some event, and also sending some variable to the function that's called when the EventListener = true?
View 1 Repliesadd an event listener to a button so you can see when it's been clicked but can you add one to a variable to perform an action when the variable changes or do i just have to use an onEnterFrame function to check the value and act on it if it's changed?

I have preloader code in my main FLA, and I load the corresponding preloader (a small file) externally. When I detect that the file is fully loaded, I need to add the listener to the content that I want to "preload".[code]If I use it this way, the loaderInfo listener does not work, but if I add the listener ouside of the handler function, it does.The problem is, I need it to work from within the complete handler, because obviously, the preloaded can show the % completed only after it's loaded...

In Flash Cs3 it acts exactly as i want, the ENTER_FRAME runs and the addObject places numerous sprites on the stage. In the window output i'll see the trace. But when i run this code in Eclipse which is set up to use the Flash Player as output i get the first trace from EDHV_ImageSlider but the traces inside addObject won't show up, the sprites however are generated perfect.
The difference between the eclipse setup and the cs3 setup is the fact that the cs3 setup has a *.fla which calls the *.as package.
I'm using this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE to call a function when the flashVars are available as many tutorials/examples suggest. Is it correct to use it in the root of the main swf? The event is often not firing in firefox.

View 1 RepliesMy stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.
