Thanks Ben,
I've been poking through the docs, I just have no concept of what
each element is called yet - jumping in head first with tons of heavy
programming experience, but zero Flash/AS/Flex experience. Your
answers here are incredibly appreciated
Back on topic..
1. I've added
public var callback:Function = null;
..to the object class. Further, at the point where the callback
object should fire, I've added this code:
if( callback != null )
callback( 3 );
2. In the main app where I'm creating this object, I've added, inside
of a "creationComplete" block, the following:
customObject.callback = menuSelect;
private function menuSelect( index:int ):void{
....
}
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to fire..
