I'm afraid mike but you're wrong.
The MovieClip.onRelease handler doesn't pass any parameter...
From the help files : MovieClip.onRelease = function() {}
What Jeff could do is using a Delegate alternative class that allows him
to pass parameters to the handler, but he can also link his button
movieclips to a class that would dispatch events:
class MenuButton extends MovieClip {
// EventDispatcher mix-in functions here
public function MenuButton(){
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
}
public function onRelease():Void {
dispatchEvent({type:"click", target:this});
}
}
class Menu extends MovieClip {
private var btn1:MenuButton
private var btn2:MenuButton
public function Menu(){
btn1.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this, onMenuRelease);
btn2.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this, onMenuRelease);
}
private function handleEvent(event:Object):Void {
if (event.target == btn1) {
// do some stuff...
btn1.enabled = false;
btn2.enabled = true;
}
if (event.target == btn2) {
// do some stuff...
btn2.enabled = false;
btn1.enabled = true;
}
}
}
mike cann a écrit :
ummm correct me if im wrong but onRelease you are passed an event object
that contains the target of the event?
so:
funciton addChild( txt:String ):Void
{
// make new mc, with a text field and set the txt
myNewMc.onRelease = Delegate( this, onMenuRelease );
{
function onMenuRelease( event:Object):Void
{
event.target.myPropertyOfmyNewMc = somevalue;
}
I could be wrong however...

Previously, I kept a reference to my class in mc variable, which
wasn't so bad codewise... not sure if there are other side effects to
doing that.

> can you not add your children in a loop?
The children or menu items are added and removed dynamically by
calling add/remove child ( and then I animate them on and off) from
some other class that wants to use the menu
