The following code gets the x and y positions of an image that has
been clicked on that was generated by a repeater. Getting the coords
for a button should be pretty much the same.
stageX and Y are the x and y coords of the mouse position relative to
the application stage. mainCanvas is a direct child of the application
and is the container that I want the coords relative to. If you have
additional containers between the stage and the one you need coords
relative to, you have to subtract the x and y at each level to get
from stage coords to that container's coords. Subtracting the mouseX
and Y moves the coords from the point or the click to the upper left
corner of the image.
selectedImage.x = event["stageX"] - mainCanvas.x
- event.currentTarget.mouseX;
selectedImage.y = event["stageY"] - mainCanvas.y
- event.currentTarget.mouseY;
