I ran into similar problems with handling mouse events when converting an app from 1.5 to 2.0. I found that most of the time, I wound up transferring the eventlistener to another object (like the parent, since mouse events propagate up). But I have had success when adding the mouse_up event inside the mxml to the this scope like: this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,doMouseUp);

I'm converting a Flex 1.5 app to 2.0. Under 1.5 I used a event on a HBox called MouseUpSomewhere. Seems this is no more in 2.0. Any ideas what it is now called? Or maybe another way to get this same functionality to work? I can't use mouseOut. I need a event that fires when the user releases the mouse button whilst over a different component. -- Douglas Knudsen http://www.cubicleman.com <http://www.cubicleman.com> this is my signature, like it?
