Flex :: Programmatically Firing Event Listeners
Nov 10, 2011I would like to programatically fire an event on a spark checkbox. I have a tab bar which has tabs enabled according to various checkboxes. I am loading data into these tabs. Sometimes tabs 1 and 2 will be enabled. Other times tabs 2 and 3. Other times tab 4 by itself (and all the other combinations). I have tried to enable the VBox (in action script) which is in my view stack but it seems to freeze the application. The VBox enables correctly upon user input on the check box. If I set the checkbox to be selected it does not fire the event and so does not enable the tab.
Is it possible to manually fire an event in Flex. I have tried to see if I can take the checkbox and get the event and fire it. Unfortunately I can only see addEventListener, hasEventLister and removeEventListener. There is no way of getting the events that are already on the checkbox
Flash :: Why Are Event Listeners Firing More Than Once
Jun 14, 2010In my Flash project I have a movieclip that has 2 keyframes. Both frames contain 1 movieclip each.
frame 1 - Landing
frame 2 - Game
The flow of the application is simple:
User arrives on landing page (frame 1) User clicks "start game" button User is brought to the game page (frame 2) When the game is over, the user can press a "play again" button which brings them back to step 1
Both Landing and Game movieclips are linked to separate classes that define event listeners. The problem is that when I end up back at step 1 after playing the game, the Game event listeners fire twice for their respective event. And if I go through the process a third time, the event listeners fire three times for every event. This keeps happening, so if I loop through the application flow 7 times, the event listeners fire seven times. I don't understand why this is happening because on frame 1, the Game movieclip (and I would assume its related class instance) does not exist - but I'm clearly missing something here.
I've run into this problem in other projects too, and tried fixing it by first checking if the event listeners existed and only defining them if they didn't, but I ended up with unexpected results that didn't really solve the problem.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Why Are Functions With Event Listeners Firing Themselves Again
Aug 23, 2009I've had this glitch for a long time, and I've tried several ways to get rid of it, and now that I just recoded everything to see if it was something I did, it's back again! basically, whenever I press space (regardless of whether or not I am listening for a space press [or any key press]), the last function fired by an event listener will run itself again, with the exact same arguments supplied to it in the first time.
For example, if I make a simple button to trace("text"); and take you to another frame. Once you get to that frame you can press Space and it'll trace "text" again! I really have no idea what's causing this, and it doesn't seem to be happening to me in new files. and there's too much code to show you, but I just want to know if anyone has heard of this before or if they have any theories to what's going on.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listeners Not Firing Consistently?
Oct 7, 2009I have 9 buttons on my site which I wish to increase to 100% alpha when the users mouse rolls over each one, then have the alpha reduced to the original setting of 75% on rollout.If I set the code below for 1 button it works just fine. However, if I repeat this code just changing the numbers for each button, it stops working once duplicated more than a couple of times.Why does it stop working and how can I write this efficiently so it works for all 9 buttons?
Here is the code:-
addtocart1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_O VER, fadeinaddtocart1);
function fadeinaddtocart1(event:Event):void

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listeners Not Firing?
Nov 17, 2009It currently has the following listeners active. When you click a blurb, you will zoom into it. When you click it again (or anywhere on the flash object) it will zoom back out.If you let it idle it will zoom in and out at roughly 10second intervals.There are also keyboard functions that when you click on the arrow keys it will move the camera in various ways. The keys only work in the zoomed out state and are disabled on zoom inThe problem that I'm having is with these. On startup, the keys work fine. If you let it idle and have it automatically zoom in then out, the keys will work fine. However, if you manually click out of a blurb, the keyboard event listeners stop working. I'm not sure why this happens since both the auto-zoom and the manual zoom both call the same function to zoom out.
At first it seems to be that the window is losing focus, since if I click on white space I can use the keyboard again. The problem though, is that when I use an DEACTIVATE event listener to test it, it doesn't show the flash object losing focus. Because of that, I'm not really sure how I would go about fixing this problem.

package com.jonchau.twitter {
import flash.display.MovieClip;

Flex :: Event Listener Callback Not Firing?
Jun 17, 2011In our app, I am periodically noticing that a particular event handler is not firing. 99% of the time, it works fine, but, every so often, it just dies. How can I find out whats happening? Is the DispatchEvent() not happening/working somehow? Is my listener still listening? Did something else catch the event, and not pass it along so that the 'right' listener can get to it ?
Here's a little bit of the code...
Thats a somewhat pruned down version of what the real code is, but I don't think I trimmed out anything important. The key, as I see it is that we fire up the params dialog, then start to listen for the closed event. Then, we show the param dialogs close function. What happens when it fails is that the trace message "caught close event.." is never generated, and, consequently, the closeHandler is not getting called at all.

Flex :: Swfloader Component Not Firing Complete Event?
Mar 25, 2010enter code hereBeen really frustrating just trying to load a swf from a swfloader in Flex and then accessing it's content. I'm sure once I figure out how to do it once then it'll be fine, but I've gone thorugh a bunch of tutorials and somethings not right. Here's my flex code:and the as code:
public function initHeaderSwf():void
{
trace("INITIATIED");[code]........
Here's the problem: The swf loads, there is no problem there.i see it in my compiled swf. but the complete event doesn't fire. CreationComplete will fire, and then I try, after that, to make a event listener for loading the actual swf, that doesn't fire.I've tried it a variety of different ways with no luck.All I am trying to do is change a text field in the loaded swf.I imagine this might be a problem with the sequence of things loading or something like that, but not sure.
Flex :: OnResult HTTPService - Event Possibilities Not Firing
Sep 1, 2010I have a HTTPService:
<mx:HTTPService id="scoreService" url="http://" method="POST" result="onResult(event)">
<s:request xmlns="">
<name>{..}</name><score>{...}</score>
</s:request></mx:HTTPService>
And a script for (event):
private function onResult(e:ResultEvent):void {
if (e.result.status == true) {
currentState='...';
} else {
Alert.show("...", "...");
}}
The problem is that none of the event possibilities fires after I POST data to my php.

Mar 20, 2010I am using the flex datagrid to allow the user to edit some data. My update process relies on a CollectionEvent of type update. Basically I catch this event package the values and update the database. However, if the user edits a cell then moves to edit a cell in the same row the value is updated but a collection event is not fired. Only when clicking out of the row the event is fired. Has anyone had experience with this. I have heard the datagrid is a little quirky is this one of those quirks or am I doing this all wrong?

Flex :: Registering Event Listeners In A Controller?
Nov 10, 2009I'm working on creating a simple MCV application, in order to understand MVC better. The problem I'm having is registering event listeners. The way I see MVC is that the view dispatches events, the controller listens for these events and acts on them, either updating the model or amending the view. So in my MVC app I have a controller which during initialisation should register all the events that are dispatched by the view. This is my controller:

Now is this the way to do this, and why is it that my controller is not registering the event handlers?
Flex - Get All Event Listeners On A Specific Component?

Flex :: Fall Listeners Have Executed On Next Line After Dispatching An Event?

View 3 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Flex Adding Event Listeners With Callback Functions Which Have No Arguments
Jun 10, 2009fileReference.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, uploadCompleteHandler);
private function uploadCompleteHandler(event:Event):void {}
Above is one way to add an event listener in Actionscript. By default the callback function needs to have an argument with name event and type Event. Is there a way to declare this function without any arguments :
private function uploadCompleteHandler():void {}
Edit : It's possible to add an event handler without any arguments in mxml. So one student wanted to know, why isn't it possible to do the same in actionscript?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Some Conditional Code Not Firing
Dec 20, 2005I have some code that is supposed to detect if a movie subsection is currently "active" or "destroyed", and respond to these conditions. When a subsection first loads it sets _root variable "state" to "active". When a new menu item is rolled over, it triggers several events. It tells current movie to destroy itself. On the final frame of the movie subsections they change the _root variable "state" to "destroyed". After the button tells the current movie to play destroy, it begins an on enter frame function that looks for state to be != to "active" (I've tried == "destroyed" here as well). [code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listeners Only Fire Off At Event Once?
Feb 13, 2010An odd thing is happening for me, my eventlisteners only fire off once then they seem to stop working.
This thing is a movieclip that slides up the parent movieclip and another movieclip within mc slides it down. They only work once.

slider.up.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, activateSlider);
slider.down.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, activateSlider2);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Timer Event Not Firing?
Jul 13, 2010I have a little flash app that I have running constantly on my server (I made it an exe). It runs great for a few days, but then eventually it just stops.
Code:
trace("test1");
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(5000, 1);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, getData,false,0,true);
[Code].....
The code above should call the function getData once after 5 seconds have passed. This works 99.99% of the time, but for some reason (usually after a few days of it running) it doesn't call the getData function.
I have verified this through trace statements. When it eventually fails, it traces out test1, test2..... then nothing else. No test3.
I'm assuming I need to add an event listener for the timer object to check if it fails for whatever reason. How do I do this?
