I might be getting it wrong but the following might help:
In working with components and using "placed onscreen in editor"
components, I always find myself needing to wait 1 frame before adding
the component event listeners. It seems the v2 components need 1
enterframe to fully initialize themselves.
The way I do it (very crude code, in no sense useable in a copy paste
sense)
Private function onEnterFrame() {
// Create this handler, which if all goes well
// will be called only once, but we know 100% sure
// we had at least 1 frame interval.
addHandlers();
}
Private function addHandlers() {
// Clean up the onEnterFrame
delete this.onEnterFrame;
// Add all listeners here
myComponent.addEventListener("click", this);
}

Subject: [Flashcoders] Where to add eventListners in UIComponent
classes?
I have a component that has a couple Macromedia UI components used
inside of it. I have found that if I add my event listeners inside of
createChildren after I have added the UI components the events are not
added. I have also tried to add the events inside of the draw method. In
order to get the events to work properly I have to add them into my
onLoad() method. However this makes it so when I load the component I do
not get an accurate onLoad event from the component as the event
handlers have yet to be registered. Is there someplace that I am missing
that I should be placing all of my event registration in anything that
extends UIComponent?
Thanks;
Wade Arnold
