Flex :: CursorManager Does Nothing When `stage.mouseChildren = False`?
May 31, 2010
I've found that if I use the CursorManager to set a cursor ursorManager.setBusyCursor() — then set stage.mouseChildren = false, the cursor set by CursorManager is replaced by the "default" mouse cursor the next time the mouse is moved. I'm setting stage.mouseChildren = false so that, while the mouse is being dragged, other "stuff" on the stage won't get mouse events (eg, so that mouse-over affordances aren't triggered if I'm in the middle of a drag).

I want to separate event handling from a container and it child. So as you can see, my source code is very simple :
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.*;[code].....
When I roll over the container object, I've got the trace (OK for me).BUT When I roll over the decor object, I've got the trace too (not what I want).I just want the container to be triggered by the mouse event, not it child.So what's happened to my mouseChildren = false....?

I'm trying to have a hand cursor over a movie clip that contains dynamic texts. I tried:

The problem is that this movie clip has a roll_over on the children, so when I put the second line of code my roll_over doesn't work anymore.

Here is what I want:
1) a sprite with a rollover/out tween, going from alpha 0 to 1 on rollover, and back to 0 on rollout (let's call it "containerSprite"). That part is cake.
2) another sprite within the container (let's call it "closeButton"), that goes along for the ride (i.e., its alpha gets tweened along with the container). That's easy enough to do by making it a child of "container". When I say it is "within" the container I mean in terms of x/y.
3) when I move the mouse within containerSprite and onto closeButton, I want the container to stay visible (easy enough by setting mouseEnabled or mouseChildren to false). But I want closeButton to respond to mouseDown events, so I can't set it to mouseEnabled=false, nor can I set containerSprite.mouseChildren=false.
4) there will be several other sprites within the x/y of containerSprite, each with their own rollover/out tween. The catch is, when the mouse is within containerSprite and rolls onto one of them, the alpha of containerSprite SHOULD tween out (unlike when rolling onto closeButton).
For the life of me, I cannot get it all to work. I can get the desired behaviour in (4) easily enough, either by making the other sprites (mouseEnabled) children of containerSprite, or by making them siblings of containerSprite but higher in the display list. But the desired behaviour in (2) and (3) is vexing me: if closeButton is a child of containerSprite then its alpha tweens along with containerSprite (desired), but because it must be mouseEnabled, moving the cursor onto it triggers containerSprite's rollout event (undesired). If instead it is a higher sibling of containerSprite rather than a child, it has the same problem: if it is mouseEnabled, moving onto it counts as a rollOut event for the container. It seems like the solution ought to be easy, and I'm just missing something that is in plain sight.

I am trying to display database details in a Flex datagrid and connected using HTTP Service. It was able to display details without any issue when I was working in the FlashBuilder 4.5, however, I deployed the bin-debug part in the Tomcat webserver to access it globally.
I am experiencing this error message when I am trying to access the swf file "HTTP request error Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]. URL: http://localhost:8084/UA/details.jsp"

I am having a problem with stage event listeners in Explorer 7 and up.I place an object, say a circle, on the stage in layer 1. I make it a symbol and give it an instant name of myBall_mc.I add a blank keyframe at frame 25 and create a motion tween moving the circle across the stage.I add a new layer, name it actions and place the following code in the first frame.
stop();
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick():void[code].....
Works perfectly when testing. Works perfectly when exported to a .swf in Firefox. Doesn't work at all in Explorer 7 and up.If I add a button to the stage and change the event listener to listen for a mouse click on the button, it works perfectly in all browsers.
Now here's the weird part. If I leave the script exactly like I have it above and place a box, the entire size of the stage, over the stage and set its alpha to zero. It works perfectly in all browsers. This is without even changing the event listener from stage to whatever I called the stage covering object.It registers as a stage level mouse click!
I've tried to add imports but this didn't change anything. I tried to add the parameters ,true and ,false to the stage event listener after the function name. Everthting I've tried comes up short. The only thing that works for Explorer browsers is covering the stage with an object.

I have a movie clip that has contains some dynamic text fields and over these some movieclips that serve as buttons. The issue I'm having is, that while the movieclips have buttonMode set to true, and mouseChildren set to false, when testing in a browser, after a few seconds of rolling over them, the cursor starts to flicker, as thought there is a conflict between the text fields trying to fight the button for focus. I have tried adding ROLL_OVER states to the buttons (thought they are not needed) in an effort to monopolise focus, while I'm not 100% sure, its seems as though this is a textfield issue.

Through getChildByName is it possible to access the mouseChildren property of a Sprite? I'm guessing no, but before I go about changing something I want to make sure it's necessary and that I'm not just doing something wrong..
ex:
Code:
STAGE.getChildByName('container').mouseChildren = false;
Would give me an error. I see this is because getChildByName returns a DisplayObject object. So I guess my question is: Is it possible to get the actual Object (Sprite in my case)?

I've read the flex language reference: [URL]. This property is true if execute() has been called and not all of the results have been returned from the database. However, I'm having trouble understanding what that means exactly. I keep receiving an error:
Error #3106: Property cannot be changed while SQLStatement.executing is true.
I've tried creating an event handler for SQLEvent.RESULT, my thinking was that's how the results would get returned from the database and therefore executing() would return false - didn't work. Does this mean i'm trying to change my SQLStatement variable too quickly? how long does the execute() function take?
The code in question:
private function fileProgress(p_evt:ProgressEvent):void {
var char:String;
var line:String = "";
var counter:int = 1;
sqlStatement = new SQLStatement();
[Code] ....
Stream is a filestream. I'm trying to read a textfile and put every line into a new sqlite table row. I've also tried using sqlStatement.parameters as an alternative way to do my insert queries, but to no luck. that throws a different error:
Error #3110: Operation cannot be performed while SQLStatement.executing is true.

Currently building a dynamic menu system, with 3 levels of navigation. Currently when mouse children is set to 'true' it doesn't want to remember the name of the menu item created. it spits out, 'instance263' or whatever the number is when I trace it out with my onClick event. With mouseChildren set to 'false' my 3rd tier of navigation ceases to work.
The Goal here is to have the menu items retain an instance name so I can relate back to them and set active states for the current active module. UPDATE: Here is where the problem arises

Simple example.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.*;
clip.addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, function( event:Event )
{
trace( "over " );
[Code]....
Even though mouseEnabled is set to false, still ROLL_OUT is cought. Its propably cause mouse GOES out of the object, but I dont think it should be like this.

It would be an easy question, but property 'selectable' is set to 'false' and therefore selectedItem is always null.
In each row I have 3 buttons. When I click a button, I need to extract data corresponding to clicked row.

How do you make the childAllowsParent property of an SwfLoader go from false to true, that is, how as a parent application do you set up security to make the child app's events and other properties accessible to you. To read the flex docs on this, one would think nothing could be simpler:
"This property [childAllowsParent] is set to true if the child object has called the allowDomain() method to grant permission to the parent domain or if a URL policy is loaded at the child domain that grants permission to the parent domain. If child and parent are in the same domain, this property is set to true . [emphasis added]" So, I'm in a development environment and want to load an swf from my own system via an SWFLoader and then be able to monitor its events within the parent app.

I have a code similar to this:

<s:HGroup verticalAlign="middle">
<s:Label text="label" />
<s:TextInput id="rmName"/>
[Code].....
I want that the s:VGroup container has the height only of its visible children. In this example there is a free space even the visibility mx:HorizontalList is set to false. Every time I change the visibility of the child element I want that the parent (s:VGroup) will change his height. How to do this in flex?

If you know Flex, you probably know what the property "includeInLayout" does. If not, this property make the parent of your component disregard the bounds (like width and height) of your component in render their own bounds.Description in reference below:
Specifies whether this component is included in the layout of the parent container. If true, the object is included in its parent container's layout and is sized and positioned by its parent container as per its layout rules. If false, the object size and position are not affected by its parent container's layout http:[url]...
In Flex, for example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"

In Flex I've got a component, which is based on a Canvas.It looks like this (I removed the <mx:Script> for better reading):
<mx:Canvas verticalScrollPolicy="off" showEffect="showFX" hideEffect="hideFX" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" creationComplete="doComplete()" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="63" height="63">[code]....
If I set customComponent.Visible to false, the component gets hidden (as expected). But doesn't trigger the hideFX at all. Am I doing something wrong? Or isn't this the correct way to use hideEffect and showEffect?

how to describe this without confusing everyone but basically, i have:
prevslot = "jslot"+historynum+"full";
historynum is a dynamically gathered number from another part of my code. it will be like 1 or 2 or 3 etc.
The problem is that i want to like set the value of that variable to false, so for example if historynum was equal to 1, the value of prevslot would be jslot1full. I need to set the value of prevslot to false, i tried prevslot = false; but obviously that just sets prevslot to false, not the value of prevslot. Is there any way to set the value of prevslot to false?
