Error with mouse event function

Hi,
     I have inserted two keyframes in the timeline, then i included scripts on each keyframe. The script in first keyframe is following:
stop();
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0,0,300,20);
mc.graphics.endFill();
addChild(mc);
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clicked)
function clicked(){
    gotoAndPlay(2);
The script in the second keyframe is following:
var mc1:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc1.graphics.beginFill(0xFF00FF);
mc1.graphics.drawRect(0,0,300,20);
mc1.graphics.endFill();
addChild(mc1);
The error which was reported while compiling is defined as follows:
When i click on the movieclip 'mc' created in the first frame, an error like "ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on gallery_fla::MainTimeline/clicked(). Expected 0, got 1."  is showing. Actually i need to go to the second frame while clicking on the movieclip on first keyframe.
Regards,
      Sreelash

Use following:
stop();
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
mc.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
mc.graphics.drawRect(0,0,300,20);
mc.graphics.endFill();
addChild(mc);
mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clicked)
function clicked(evnt:MouseEvent)
     gotoAndPlay(2);
When we use a function as an event listener it should catch the event as an argument. that is why you are getting this error.

  • Deprecated Mouse Event Functions

    While I was tryng to use the Xeon.java program provided by Java in the free applets page, I got deprecation errors for all of the mouse event functions like, mouseEvent(), mouseDown,.. . Is
    there any way that I can get this to work without totally changing my code, or is there an update anywhere to this program that does not have deprecated components.

    No, deprecated code still compiles!
    Deprecation warnings are just that -- only warnings.
    You should update the deprecated classes and methods if you're making changes to the code or deploying it, but you don't need to.

  • Communication error with the LOCAL_EXEC Function BAPI_PTMGREXTATTABS_CHECK

    Hello,
    We use timesheet (CATS) in a separate SAP system from the SAP system in which HR resides.
    I found out how the loosely coupled scenario with CATS works with a SAP HR system. We transfer the workschedule and absence data with report RPTIMEOVERVIEW_REPLICATE to the SAP system in which CATS is used. This data is then available in the PTIMEOV1 table to perform time checks in CATS. The distribution model for ALE takes care of the fact that the data is posted into table PTIMEOV1. With BD97 I set up that the BAPI: PTMGREXTATTABS.CHECK has RFCdestination for synchronous calls  = LOCAL_EXEC.
    When I want to record on an attendance code without clock times then the above works fine. The SAP system in which CATS resides looks into table PTIMEOV1. So far so good.
    However, when I want to record hours WITH clock times then I cannot save the data. The error message HRTIM00CATS667 shows up:
    "Communication error with the LOCAL_EXEC Function BAPI_PTMGREXTATTABS_CHECK is no t available  system"
    Diagnosis
    An error has occured during communication with the HR System. The HR data in the time sheet cannot be validated.
    From the error message description it seems that it wants to check the SAP HR system instead of looking for the check in the SAP system in which CATS resides.....
    When I change the value from LOCAL_EXEC to the system in which HR resides then the error disappears, but then it really checks into the SAP HR system (synchronous check with that SAP HR system) and that is not what the customer wants. The check should be local on the PTIMEOV1 table (in case the SAP HR system is down).
    I did not find any OSS notes on the topic....or other info on SDN.
    Can anyone help me out concerning this starnge error message, at least for me?
    Thanks very much in advance,
    Kind regards,
    Mirko

  • Working with mouse events in Strobe's Widget classes

    I'm adding a caption on/off toggle button (classname CaptionButton) to the ControlBar class of Strobe Media Playback 1.5.1, and I'm having a difficult time understanding how mouse events are passed to child widgets of a ButtonWidget. In my CaptionButton class (which extends ButtonWidget), I add an instance of another widget, ListWidget, that extends Widget, and I show/hide this ListWidget with a mouse click event in the CaptionButton. The ListWidget is a composite class with a List component from Flash CS5, and the cell renderers in the List component do not respond to mouse events (over, selected, etc). How do I enable this type of mouse interaction within a Widget class? With the VolumeWidget, it looks like all mouse events are recreated and then controls are manually positioned according to the event properties, but this would be rather difficult with a component that has a virtual layout like List component. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    -Robert

    Ok, found that WidgetHint sets mouseChildren = false, etc. But I have a new problem---how do I stop autoHide timer while the user is interacting with a child widget? I was looking at the VolumeWidget that is used from the MuteButton widget, but I don't see how it stops the autoHide timer from enacting.

  • Trying to create a surface  with multiple images with mouse events

    novice programmer (for a applet program)
    hi trying to create a surface i.e jpanel, canvas, that allows multiple images to be created.
    Each object is to contain a image(icon) and a name associated with that particular image. Then each image+label has a mouse event that allows the item to be dragged around the screen.
    I have tried creating own class that contains a image and string but I having problems.
    I know i can create a labels with icons but having major problems adding mouse events to allow each newly created label object to moved by the users mouse?
    if any one has any tips of how to acheive this it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • Error with field E_ENDEDATUM, function module PK_ENDDAT_AUS_START_PLUS_WORK

    Hi
    Well, i don´t know exactly were put this, but, here it is.
    The estandard function module PK_ENDDAT_AUS_START_PLUS_WORKD has an error on his definition: due to the field E_ENDEDATUM has no type, when you test it on SE37, gets a dump error message.
    Maybe using it directly in a program, may not happen (I didn´t tested it), but if you first need make tests, you CAN NOT!!
    How notify this issue to SAP AG or to somebody of staff of programming???
    Thanks in advance.
    José Gabriel Martínez.

    you cannot test it in SE37. you have to write a small program to call this function and test it.
    and the data type of the variable to be used with E_ENDEDATUM  should be of type sy-datum or SCAL-DATE

  • Scroll error with mouse wheel [SOLVED]

    thought this only happened in firefox, but it happens in opera and konqueror
    i did a fresh install of arch and it is updated. installed xorg and kde. i have used the firefox package from arch as well as installing from mozilla.com itself, same issue in firefox, but like i said it happens in other browsers and file managers
    if i scroll down (towards me) its fine, but if i scroll up, i get the right click popup menu. in konq it is a little different as it places whatever i copied into the clipboard into the address bar as a web page
    relevant parts of my xorg.conf
    Section "InputDevice"
    # Identifier and driver
    Identifier "Mouse1"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" # IntelliMouse PS/2
    Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    # Option "Emulate3Buttons"
    # Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
    this didn't use to happen, but i cant remember when it started and what was updated when it did. also i do not notice this on other distros. i have also enabled emulate3buttons and added to zaxismapping to 4 5 6 7, no change. any ideas? it is a standard logitech wheel mouse.

    ok so i modified my xorg.conf to include the following
    Identifier "Mouse1"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
    Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
    Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5"
    Option "ZAxisMapping "4 5"
    i added the buttonmapping line from pclinuxos where my mouse works fine, but it was originally 1 2 3 6 7, i changed it to what is above to see if that worked, it did not. i have also tried explorerps/2, /dev/input/mouse, and 4 5 6 7 for zaxismapping and enabled and disabled emulate3buttons...all with no change
    i have run xev and it seems that when i scroll up i get a buttonpress event on button 3 and button 4 with a release event for button 4
    so from that it appears that when i scroll up it is also executing a right mouse click (button 3)
    any ideas?

  • Error with a copy function after upgrading to patch 18 on the server

    Hi experts,
    I had the following error when I try to execute with trace in RSPLAN a copy function that was right and functioning over a workbook before upgrading to patch 18 in the server:
    'Char. value of 0COSTELMNT  does not correspond to value of block char. 623004'
    The functions seems to be right also when I check the values but the error message is still there and over the workbook Copy function button.
    Thanks,

    Technically, Oracle supports Oracle XE through that forum. At least that was the policy as I knew it a while ago.
    With installation issues for XE and the like it's probably better to just post it there. Obviously a grey area and you may well get a hit or two here, but I think you should post these kinds of questions on the XE forum.
    When it comes to Apex development questions you can definitely post them here. I know, I know, it really is a pain! But you want to post where you have the best chance of getting good help.

  • Error with Export Scorecard Functionality

    All -
    When I try to utilize the 'Export' scorecard functionality in SSM 7.0, I get the following error message:
    "Error opening Excel Automation Server can't create object.  This can be cause by:
    -Application is not installed on your machine
    -Browser security does not allow ActiveX scripts
    -You were prompted to run ActiveX and you said No,
    If that is the case, close all browser instances and reopen"
    Does anyone know why?  Are there specific internet explorer settings that I should look at for fixing this issue?
    Jason

    Jason,
    Active X is required to run certain functions of SSM. In Outlook > Tools > Internet Options > Security (tab) > Internet > Custom Settings
    There are a number of different Active X settings. Change all of them to ENABLE - EXCEPT FOR THE FOLLOWING:
    - Download signed Active X controls - change to PROMPT
    - Download unsigned Active X controls - change to PROMPT
    - Initialize and script Active X controls not mark as safe - leave as DISABLE
    They other possible issue would be not having Excel installed. Just to mention that if  you are working at the server level, there would have to be Excel installed at the server as well. Probably not your issue, but bring it up since often server won't have the full compliment of supporting applications installed at that level.

  • Floating boxes applet with drag events need click event

    I Have an applet cobbled from the net & modified. Is works but needs one major event added. It draws "Graphics.drawline" boxes with a text "String" inside each box ( the text string represents an URL location). These "boxes" are objects which are "draggable to other locations on canvas & therefore can be independently positioned by user. Each box redraws itself periodically to a slightly different screen location & becomes stationary after a 5 or 6 seconds. The point is, all of this "drag & mobility" behavior must remain intact & is not part of the "problem task".
    Task: Need to have an "event" behavior added in one of two ways ( or a 3rd way if there is another ) whichever is quickest/ easiest. "Clickable mouse events" must be added to each box. ( boxes are built in a loop so adding to one will add to other locations & create as many "buttons" as there are boxes) . At each box's location, clicking one box should be an event which fires & clicking a different box should be a separate event which fires. Separate , so that URL location can be "hotlinked" to each box. That URL is currently displayed in the boxes (visible when running applet).
    1st possible solution: Exchange these "boxes" which appear on canvas into clickable event "Graph panel.buttons" ( for example or some other clickable object) which maintains existing "drag" behavior of boxes. These buttons must each have "clickability" with mouse events to enable placing "getAppletContext. showDocument()" code with these events ( e.g., "hotlinked" to http locations).
    or
    2nd possible solution:. The drawstring boxes are currently dead string text with no event model other than the "drag" feature associated with each box. Must add an additional mouse event behavior to existing boxes so they are "clickable" ( or text inside is clickable) and can then execute "showDocument()" URL when clicked independently.
    Maybe there is a #3. I don't know what that would be. Open to try anything without losing the drag & placement mobility of existing boxes.
    These "boxes" could be images, or event buttons - doesnt matter.
    Not sure if #2 is possible & have not been able to accomplish #1. Must stay within existing AWT framework so IE browsers can run it natively ( which of course IE cannot run Swing graphics unless a Sun plugin loaded ).
    Applet is a single file ( creating 4 classes).
    html file (which invokes it) passes a string param which is broken into above noted URL strings in each box.
    Running this applet, you see a "button" event ( at base of canvas labeled "NewUrl" ) which pops up an url location when clicked ( using "showdocument"). This button is not attached to locations or text of each box object ( which is the "task" to accomplish) . The button does represent the kind of event behavior which each "box" should have when task is achieved. So the box can be exchanged with buttons or the boxes can be imbued with events to hyperlink like a button.
    In spirit of solution #1, here is the bonehead attempt I tried which did not work: copied entire "if" block of logic from the button event (sited in preceding paragraph) into region of code which builds boxes ( "for" loop of "drawstring" method).
    "g.drawString(doit, x - (w-10)/2, (y - (h-4)/2) + fm.getAscent());"
    I copied all the "if" block of logic for button creation into the area immediately after the above line ( for loop which builds the boxes). Hoping that I could create buttons with events, along with all the boxes (which are getting created using "drawstring" above in a "for" loop). These "buttons" must also have positioning info of each box to appear in different locations on the canvas. Positioning data is not in that "if" block of code but it would have been a start to get the multiple buttons created ( even if all drawn in one spot). The "if" code block I've provieded for an example begins with the line:
    " if ("NewUrl".equals(arg)) { "
    and ends with with lines:
    " return true; "
    " } " //< -- end of above if block
    This full "if" block can be seen in the listing below:
    This "if" block creates the "NewUrl" button. Of course, I got a bunch of errors when I tried to copy this block to the above location:
    variable: "arg" "not found in class GraphPanel".
    methods: "getcodebase, showstatus, getappletcontext()"
    "not found in class GraphPanel".

    instructions to compile :
    0 : The discussion becomes easy to follow after 1st compiling
    & viewing the applet.
    1. : cut out applet code.
    2. : the post somehow deleted all references to "" <--- HERE
    see, the data has been deleted again as I preview this post.
    ( that "" should contain an "i" array increment argument:
    "open square bracket" "i" "close square bracket" ) array
    so "javac Box.java" will get 10 errors. These "[" "i" "]"
    array args must be replaced to compile the code.
    3. : All array variables inside the 10 "for" loops ( the bare words
    "edges" and "nodes" ) without array increment "i" should
    read "edges" "[" "i" "]" & "nodes" "[" "i" "]".
    The 10 location lines are approx:
    line #65, #129, #136, #149, #195, #283, #311, #331, #477, #522
    4. : These 10 edits reqresent a missing "i" to all 10 for loop arrays.
    for eddges & nodes. fix this & javac Box.java" will get
    4 class files.
    5. : cut "Box.htm" from post & do "appletviewer Box.htm"
    or put in an apache "htdoc" or tomcat "servlet" http delivered
    directory & call "http://localhost/Box.htm.
    6. : of course, selecting the event button "NewUrl" will not
    work in appletviewer but will work in an http web location.
    7. : post your questions to problem or fixes to problem as I'm
    monitoring closely. TIA.

  • Floating "boxes" applet with drag events need ckick events

    I Have an applet cobbled from the net & modified. Is works but needs one major event added. It draws "Graphics.drawline" boxes with a text "String" inside each box ( the text string represents an URL location). These "boxes" are objects which are "draggable to other locations on canvas & therefore can be independently positioned by user. Each box redraws itself periodically to a slightly different screen location & becomes stationary after a 5 or 6 seconds. The point is, all of this "drag & mobility" behavior must remain intact & is not part of the "problem task".
    Task: Need to have an "event" behavior added in one of two ways ( or a 3rd way if there is another ) whichever is quickest/ easiest. "Clickable mouse events" must be added to each box. ( boxes are built in a loop so adding to one will add to other locations & create as many "buttons" as there are boxes) . At each box's location, clicking one box should be an event which fires & clicking a different box should be a separate event which fires. Separate , so that URL location can be "hotlinked" to each box. That URL is currently displayed in the boxes (visible when running applet).
    1st possible solution: Exchange these "boxes" which appear on canvas into clickable event "Graph panel.buttons" ( for example or some other clickable object) which maintains existing "drag" behavior of boxes. These buttons must each have "clickability" with mouse events to enable placing "getAppletContext. showDocument()" code with these events ( e.g., "hotlinked" to http locations).
    or
    2nd possible solution:. The drawstring boxes are currently dead string text with no event model other than the "drag" feature associated with each box. Must add an additional mouse event behavior to existing boxes so they are "clickable" ( or text inside is clickable) and can then execute "showDocument()" URL when clicked independently.
    Maybe there is a #3. I don't know what that would be. Open to try anything without losing the drag & placement mobility of existing boxes.
    These "boxes" could be images, or event buttons - doesnt matter.
    Not sure if #2 is possible & have not been able to accomplish #1. Must stay within existing AWT framework so IE browsers can run it natively ( which of course IE cannot run Swing graphics unless a Sun plugin loaded ).
    Applet is a single file ( creating 4 classes).
    html file (which invokes it) passes a string param which is broken into above noted URL strings in each box.
    Running this applet, you see a "button" event ( at base of canvas labeled "NewUrl" ) which pops up an url location when clicked ( using "showdocument"). This button is not attached to locations or text of each box object ( which is the "task" to accomplish) . The button does represent the kind of event behavior which each "box" should have when task is achieved. So the box can be exchanged with buttons or the boxes can be imbued with events to hyperlink like a button.
    In spirit of solution #1, here is the bonehead attempt I tried which did not work: copied entire "if" block of logic from the button event (sited in preceding paragraph) into region of code which builds boxes ( "for" loop of "drawstring" method).
    "g.drawString(doit, x - (w-10)/2, (y - (h-4)/2) + fm.getAscent());"
    I copied all the "if" block of logic for button creation into the area immediately after the above line ( for loop which builds the boxes). Hoping that I could create buttons with events, along with all the boxes (which are getting created using "drawstring" above in a "for" loop). These "buttons" must also have positioning info of each box to appear in different locations on the canvas. Positioning data is not in that "if" block of code but it would have been a start to get the multiple buttons created ( even if all drawn in one spot). The "if" code block I've provieded for an example begins with the line:
    " if ("NewUrl".equals(arg)) { "
    and ends with with lines:
    " return true; "
    " } " //< -- end of above if block
    This full "if" block can be seen in the listing below:
    This "if" block creates the "NewUrl" button. Of course, I got a bunch of errors when I tried to copy this block to the above location:
    variable: "arg" "not found in class GraphPanel".
    methods: "getcodebase, showstatus, getappletcontext()"
    "not found in class GraphPanel".

    instructions to compile :
    0 : The discussion becomes easy to follow after 1st compiling
    & viewing the applet.
    1. : cut out applet code.
    2. : the post somehow deleted all references to "" <--- HERE
    see, the data has been deleted again as I preview this post.
    ( that "" should contain an "i" array increment argument:
    "open square bracket" "i" "close square bracket" ) array
    so "javac Box.java" will get 10 errors. These "[" "i" "]"
    array args must be replaced to compile the code.
    3. : All array variables inside the 10 "for" loops ( the bare words
    "edges" and "nodes" ) without array increment "i" should
    read "edges" "[" "i" "]" & "nodes" "[" "i" "]".
    The 10 location lines are approx:
    line #65, #129, #136, #149, #195, #283, #311, #331, #477, #522
    4. : These 10 edits reqresent a missing "i" to all 10 for loop arrays.
    for eddges & nodes. fix this & javac Box.java" will get
    4 class files.
    5. : cut "Box.htm" from post & do "appletviewer Box.htm"
    or put in an apache "htdoc" or tomcat "servlet" http delivered
    directory & call "http://localhost/Box.htm.
    6. : of course, selecting the event button "NewUrl" will not
    work in appletviewer but will work in an http web location.
    7. : post your questions to problem or fixes to problem as I'm
    monitoring closely. TIA.

    Thanks for code post tip to fix array index deletion problem.
    Here is code reposted using "code" delimiters which will
    compile straight out of cut/paste.
