Thanks Alex, but I dont't understand. Are you setting a flag on the event? I think that setting a flag in user code will not stop the stage from listening to mouse move event or mouse move event from dispatching. Can you please clarify?
For example, i am dispatching mouse move event like this: dg.getChildAt(2).dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, true, false, 100, 50)); what I would like to archive would be to prevent mouse from dispatching its own mouse move event when ever it is moved, so that i control the flow of the app with dispatching events within action script instead of dispatching them by clicking or moving a mouse.
