Hello There! As long as we are on the topic of EventDispatcher, I have another question that could really help me out.
If I have multiple Controls (and variables) throughout my application, that were all tied to a SINGLE variable (that changes several times per second), could I use an EventDispatcher method - to dispatch an event whenever this specific variable changes, and have ALL those controls subscribed to that Event, update themselves with this new value? Right now, I have a Mouse position function (which runs every time the mouse moves), that updates a TON of TextFields scattered throughout my application with the mouse coordinates. In my function, I have to go through Each and Every TextField instance, and update the .text properties. Is there a better way to accomplish this, like using the Event system? Or is this considered such a simple process, that manually setting the .text properties for a ton of controls is just the easiest way, rather than dispatching events? (keep in mind, this variable gets updated many times per second) This topic has been on my mind for a LONG time now - and I would love a definitive answer on how to do this. Thanks in advance!
