[Flashcoders] separating MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP from MouseEvent.CLICK

2009-07-12 Thread Allandt Bik-Elliott (Receptacle) 

hi guys

quick question - is it possible to separate a MOUSE_UP event from a  
CLICK event?


i have a mouse listener function that does the following:

[code]
private function grabListener(e:MouseEvent):void
{
switch(e.type)
{
case MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN :
startDrag();
	stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, grabListener, false,  
0, true);
	addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, grabListener, false, 0,  
true);

break;

case MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP :
stopDrag();

stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, grabListener);
break;

case MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE :
_nShowPosition = y;
break;

case MouseEvent.CLICK :
popup();
break;
}
}
[/code]

but the problem is that every time MOUSE_UP fires, it also completes  
the CLICK event, even after the user has dragged the object


i've tried setting the useCapture to true for the following line
	stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, grabListener, true, 0,  
true);

and in the mouse_up case i've tried doing the following
e.stopPropagation() and e.stopImmediatePropagation()
to try and head the event off before it gets to the click but i guess  
because click is a separate event, it didn't affect it


am i missing a trick here?

hope you can help

best

You might be able to set a timer for your CLICK. Eg: If this is  
clicked so fast, do CLICK else do MOUSE_UP

I think that it makes sense that the functions like formHidden() gets 
called, because that is what you put down.


It think you will need to put only the function name/ref like so:
 this.quoteRequest_mc.ySlideTo(quoteHideY,4,easeoutbounce,.5, 
formHidden ,20,4.5);



Give it a try.

Hello List,

I'm having an issue getting my MC_Tween2 scripts to behave 
appropriately. AS2.

I am trying to set a function that triggers after the tween is done.
I am sure this is easier than I am figuring, but I'm stuck.
I can get the tweens to work, but they trigger the function while 
tweeneing.


[code eg]
var beginAlpha = 0;
var endAlpha = 100;
var quoteShowY:Number = 219.9;
var quoteHideY:Number = -219.9;

this.quoteRequest_mc._y = quoteHideY;

function formVisible() {
if (!this.quoteRequest_mc.isTweening()) {//this way doesn't work at 
all ???

this.quoteRequest_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
}

function formHidden() { //this way plays while hideForm() is Tweening
this.quoteRequest_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
}

function showForm() {
this.quoteRequest_mc.alphaTo(endAlpha,3.5,easeoutquint,.5);
this.quoteRequest_mc.ySlideTo(quoteShowY,4,easeoutbounce,.5,formVisible(),20,4.5); 


}

function hideForm() {
this.quoteRequest_mc.alphaTo(beginAlpha,3.5,easeoutquint,.5);
this.quoteRequest_mc.ySlideTo(quoteHideY,4,easeoutbounce,.5,formHidden(),20,4.5); 


}
showForm();

What on earth am I doing wrong??
It all looks like it should work!

Also, on the tweens themselves, they dont play very smooth.
Am I doing somthing wrong with the timing or the ease period or amount 
of ease? What?

I want them to play somewhat quickly, but smooth.

Thank you for any help.

Thanks Jiri,
That worked perfectly.
I knew I had been looking at this code too long
and that it was something as simple as deleting a couple of parenthesis.
Thanks again..
