Question of Event.Target

• event.target.buttonImportIcon ();

  First of all, let me say that I know just enough to be dangerous... so please be nice.

  FYI - I have Acrobat, full paid, more up-to-date version.

  I created a form and in this form, I have several boxes for the insertion of photos. I use the script event.target.buttonImportIcon (); to insert pictures. I am aware that in the free version, only the PDF files may be inserted. However, I have the full version. When the box opens for me to find the picture to be inserted, it takes by default showing only PDF files. I can change it to jpg and browse, but it is heavy, because every time I have to complete this form, I need to send pictures of 12-18 for documentation.

  My question is, is there a way so that the box which opens all to display jpg files? Or at least to show all file extensions? I know that this is not a huge deal, but I do 3 to 5 of these forms per day, with pictures of 12-18 each, so it would be nice not to change the file type, I'm looking at every time.

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  Someone asked more information, so here's a more complete script which can be placed in a folder level JavaScript file:

• testbox. Optimization of event.target listener and event name

  Is it possible to get the name of a TextBox of event.target?

  stage.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, clickHandler);

  function clickHandler(e:Event):void {}

  trace (e.Target.Name);

  }

  out to click on a text box is

  I am creating a clickHandler which takes care of everything by checking the name of which was clicked on instead of adding individual headphones to each object.

  Another solution that I thought would be to separate the text and turn it into an object, but I prefer not to do that if it can be helped.

  (question 2)

  I worked on a menu, when you click on something it becomes visible and adds / removes event listeners to each button you change your location.

  Switching between menus causes a noticeable pause, which made me think to spend the 1 Manager of.

  Is there a reason to not just leave the active event listeners?  Even better if I can get the above responded and have 1 single active listener to the menu instead of 30.

  In order to get the name of the event.target text box you need

  Event.Target.parent.parent.Name

  A text box consists of 2 subobjects.

  Your comment about having children made me put 2 and 2 together.  Initially, I tried e.target and she came back with TextLine, didn't think about it being a "child" until your comment.

• New in AS3: stupid question about event listeners...

  Hi all

  I am a newbie in Flash and have a question about event listeners. I have a site I'm developing with a movie clip navigation which is composed of several buttons. What is the right way to write the event listener?

  Here's a sample of what I have:

  I have a clip called 'buttons_mc' that contains the symbols of individual button with various names such as "btn_history". So far, I don't have an instance name for the clip of the film itself.

  My event listener:

  btn_history.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, history);

  I have to put something before the "btn_history" which refers to the video? I get this error message:

  1120: access of undefined property btn_history.

  Thank you!!!

  Julia

  Yes, it is preferable to have at least one layer dedicated to actionscript.  I often use a couple... one for code shared (functions and variables) and a level of the frame code (stop(), etc.).

  The code must be in a scenario where the button is directly accessible.  If your button is accessible in frame 1, which means that it does not animate in place such that it is not really intended to be used until you get somewhere near the bottom of the timeline, then you can target the button of the timeline that holds the buttons_mc movieclip.  So as I described earlier, if you give this movieclip an instance name of "buttons", and then to assign a code to the button on the inside you should use...

  Buttons.btn_history.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, history);

  But if the button exists somewhere down the timeline inside the buttons_mc due to the animation of the button, which means that there is more than one key image for the button, then you must place the code that you have initially shown in the last keyframe to the bottom of the timeline where he set the button in place.

• How to use the String with an external dispatchEvent event.target.name?

  ... I hope that the question of the title makes sense...

  On my stage, I have an external SWF loaded with a button. When you click the button dispatches the main event scene.

  On the main stage a listener can load a SWF it in a magazine called Gallery.

  The charger of the Gallery is also shared by the buttons on the main stage, who use the event.target.name chain to appeal to sovereign wealth funds with corresponding names.

  I use tweens to fade and, in the content of the Gallery when a key is pressed.

  --

  Loading of the FSV worked until I tried to create a universal function for the dispatchEvent buttons...

  The problem I have is that I don't know how to set the string to indicate to the newSWFRequest where the SWF file when triggered by external buttons.

  (I maybe do this wrong... but thought that the best way to load a SWF on the main stage from an external SWF was using dispatchEvent?)

  My code raises the event and the charger of the Gallery Faints, but then it does not find the new SWF:

  Error #2044: Unmanaged by the IOErrorEvent:. Text = Error #2035: URL not found.

  Please can someone help me understand how to make the point in the chain in the right direction? (I think that the errors only are in bold below)

  Code:

  var myTweenIn2:Tween;

  var myTweenOut2:Tween;

  var nextLoadS2:String;

  Listening external inclinometer shipped external event

  addEventListener ("contactStage", btnClickExtrnl);

  function btnClickExtrnl(e:Event):void {}

  nextLoadS2 =?

  myTweenOut2 = new Tween(gallery,"alpha",None.easeOut,gallery.alpha,0,0.2,true);

  myTweenOut2.addEventListener (TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, tweenOutCompleteF2);

  }

  Function universal BTNS

  function tweenOutCompleteF2(e:TweenEvent) {}

  myTweenOut2.removeEventListener (TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, tweenOutCompleteF2);

  myTweenOut2 = null;

  var newSWFRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("SWFs /" + nextLoadS2 + ".swf");

  myTweenIn2 = new Tween (Gallery, "alpha", None.easeOut, gallery.alpha, 1, 0.2, true);

  Gallery.Load (newSWFRequest);

  Gallery.x = Xpos;

  Gallery.y = Ypos;

• run event.target from a page 1 button to run on page 4 of the form

  Hello

  I currently have a button on page four of the form which takes place this javascript.

  } else {}

  this.getField("strike5").display = display.hidden;

  }

  If (event.target.value! = 'Off') {}

  this.getField("strike8").display = display.hidden;

  } else {}

  this.getField("strike8").display = display.visible;

  }

  I wish now to turn by a button on page 0 to do the same on page four.

  Is this possible?

  I hope so... See you soon

  I would create a document-level function to adjust the display of the fields when the box of cehck is not equal to 'Off '.

  function SetStrikeDisplay (cValue)

  If (cValue! = "Off")
  {
  this.getField("strike5").display = display.visible;
  this.getField("strike6").display = display.visible;
  this.getField("strike7").display = display.hidden;
  this.getField("strike8").display = display.hidden;
  }
  return;
  } / / end of function SetStrikeDisplay;

  For each field, you want this script to run to use the following code:

  SetStrikeDisplay (event.target.value);

• Y at - it another way to get the doc object other than event.target

  I have a situation where event.target returns undefined.

  I have JavaScript in the preSubmit event not firing when you click on the button Save in the workspace. I've been tracking this button across the bridge form called saveXML. The code I ran changes the XML, so I still need to run before a save. I've added a call to run the preSubmit event before the saveXML line. My code has failed because I discovered because when you use event.target in the preSubmit case, it is not defined when it is called from the form bridge code.

  I noticed that the form bridge code itself used event.target. I'm gathering from the comments that the event object is changed by this code for the target child is no longer there. I created a variable at the top and together event.target before where I think that it would be changed. I then used this variable, and it solved my problem.

• Event.Target movieclip

  I have a movieclip named button1 containing dynamic text named txt inside.

  My problem is that if I try

  if(Event.Target==Button1)

  {

  ...

  }

  She won't recognize the click when it dosent meet the dynamic textfield

  So I have to do:

  If (event.target is button1| Event.Target == Button1.txt)

  {

  ...

  }

  do you have an explanation of why I can not only check whether the target is button1? because the textfield object is inside the key, so normally it is considered to be a part of it

  because the movieclip button1 is the container

  Use currentTarget instead of the target.

  The difference between them is that this target is the object having distributed the event, while currentTarget is the object with the listener entrusted to him.  Sometimes they are the same object, but the target can often be another object in the object that is the listener who are entrusted to him.

  If you want an explanation / with examples...

• Event.Target confusion?

  I try to reuse the function using event.target, but after research and try different method online, I found event.target belongs to the most difficult to understand part...

  can someone explain to me what is the difference between (the example to the right indicating where I meet these code):

  1.event.target

  2.event.target.name

  3.event.currentTarget / / e.g. event.currentTarget.addChild (myMc);

  4.event.currentTarget.name / / e.g. var newswf:URLRequest = new URLRequest (event.target.name + ".swf");

  5 MovieClip (event.currentTarget) / / e.g. addChild (MovieClip (event.currentTarget));

  I consider that the main culprit for the compiler and whoever decided to dumb it upward.  If you try what suggest you and manually place circles on the scene, you will probably see the same mistake to shut up... even if the circle is a resource of the library which is defined as a symbol of the MovieClip that the compiler must be able to refer to.

• instances of addChild does not recognize event.target.name?

  I have a button that has been added to the stage using addChild when the page load, the button is supposed to be removed using removeChild and redirect in its specific page using event.target.name... somehow, I got this error:
