Event listeners on custom panels

I have a class (C) which extends JPanel, on this i have a textbox. I also have a dialog which i have added class (C) to the container object. I want the textbox on the jPanel to keylisten, so where do i put the event handler? - at the moment i have it in class (C)... and its not being activated.

A keylistening textbox? You can type in them already if thats what you need. Did you use addKeyListener( ) on the textbox? Are you sure that the textbox has focus?

Documentation for custom event listeners

Hi,
I am searching in portal 8.1 documents for using custom events, coding and registering event listeners, and using them in jsp pages. So far my search has been unsuccessful.
Can some one let me know where i find this info?
-thanks

Hi J,

Nested Menus Not Appearing in a Custom Panel Fly-out Menu

I tried to create a menu for a custom panel, using the example which David Clark graciously pointed out to me:
http://cssdk.host.adobe.com/sdk/1.0/docs/WebHelp/programmers_guide/cus tomizing_the_ui.htm
However, the nested menu items do not appear. I only see Item 1 and Item 2 (and the separator and Item 3), but not Item 2-1. I was expecting to see Item 2-1 nested under Item 2.
I used the menu structure provided in the example (note that there is an error in the example - one of the closing tags is incorrectly specified as "<MenuItem/>" instead of "</MenuItem>"). Below is the corrected XML and my code:
protected function createMenu():void
 var xmlMenu:XML =
 <Menu>
 <MenuItem Id="item_1" Label="Item 1"/>
 <MenuItem Label="Item 2">
 <MenuItem Label="Item 2-1"/>
 </MenuItem>
 <MenuItem Label="---"/>
 <MenuItem Label="Item 3"/>
 </Menu>;
 CSXSInterface.instance.addEventListener(MenuClickEvent.FLYOUT_MENU_CLICK, menuClickHandler);
 var menuAdded:SyncRequestResult = CSXSInterface.getInstance().setPanelMenu(xmlMenu);
 if (SyncRequestResult.COMPLETE != menuAdded.status)
 trace("Unable to add menu");
 public function menuClickHandler(event:MenuClickEvent):void
 switch (event.menuName) //you can also use the menuId
 case "Item 1":
 trace("Item 1 has been clicked");
 break;
 default:
 trace("clicked " + event.menuName);
I'd appreciate it if somebody could tell me what I'm doing wrong.
TIA,
mlavie

Hi Bob,
Any news? BTW - the example should be corrected - there is a tag incorrectly closed.

mlavie

Using Multiple Event Listeners

Hi,
I have a movielcip (A) class in which I have used a Tween class effect on a child movieclip (B) scrollRect. The (B) Movieclip in turn has several movieclips whose have tween class effect being executed on thier child movieclips.
the tweens are all unique to each movieclip
and the event listeners are taken off once completed.
This works all well and good in FLASH IDE...
My problem arises when I try to view this in a browser on a Windows XP
it doesnt work in
Opera Version 9.63
Firefox 2.0
and Google Chrome 2.0
The only browser it works fluently in is
Internet Explorer 7.0.5
What is happening in most cases it that the animation appears to "stick" but i think what may be happening is the listening or removal of the event listeners. The animations are left incompleted.
Is there any rule of thumb when using multiple event listeners?
here is a snippet of some of my code
on click event from movieclip (A)
private function scrollToSlidePrev(e:MouseEvent) {
               if (((slideIndex - 1) >= 0)) {
                    nextButton.mouseEnabled = nextButton.enabled = previousButton.enabled = previousButton.mouseEnabled = false;
                    var position:Number = 0-SLIDEAREA.width;
                    var slide1:TileListSlide = slides[slideIndex] as TileListSlide;
                    var slide2:TileListSlide = slides[--slideIndex] as TileListSlide;
                    scrollSlide(position,slide1,slide2);
tween animation in movieclip (A) on (B)
private function scrollSlide(pos:int,slide1:TileListSlide,slide2:TileListSlide) {
               slide1.resizeSlideTo(0.6); // execute tween on child movie clips in B
               slide2.resizeSlideTo(1); // same as above;
               var rect:Rectangle = sliderMc.scrollRect;
               var tween1:Tween = new Tween(rect,"x",Regular.easeOut,rect.x,rect.x + pos,3,true);
               tween1.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_CHANGE,setSliderScroll,false,4);
               tween1.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH,toggleButtonEnabled,false,3);
tween animation in movieclip (B) children
public function resizeSlideTo(sc) {
               var m:Matrix = tileList.transform.matrix as Matrix;
               var p:Point = new Point (m.a, 0);
               var tween2:Tween = new Tween(p,"x",Regular.easeOut,p.x,sc,3,true);
               if (numericStepper != null) {
                    if (sc != 1) {
                         numericStepper.visible = false;
                         tween2.removeEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH,showStepper);
                    if (sc === 1) {
                         tween2.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH,showStepper,false,2);
               tween2.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_CHANGE,setScaleOnScroll,false,3);
here is the link
http://visual_admin.web.aplus.net/ticker/ticker_widget.html
the effect disables and re-enables the buttons when its done.... then the listeners are removed.
each one with the exception cretes its own unique tween (obviously this is a custom class built as each clip)
i really don't know what to make of it guys

apparantly making the tween a property of the class rather than a random variable in a function worked.....go figure

Can't receive events with a custom component

I am using the MDIPanel created by Christophe Coenraets in
the Sales Builder demo code in Flex 2. However, this custom
component (MDIPanel) doesn't seem to receive regular events other
than the custom events. The MDI Panel source code is included as
entails. Since it extends Panel, I assume that it would get all
regular events coming in but it is not. For example, I can't use
resource bundle to change the label text or I can't seem to get
dataprovider to work within a datagrid inside the MDIPanel. Any
ideas on what's happening here?
package
import mx.core.UIComponent;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.events.ResizeEvent;
import flash.display.Graphics;
import mx.managers.CursorManager;
import mx.containers.Panel;
import mx.controls.Image;
import mx.controls.Label;
import mx.states.SetStyle;
public class MDIPanel extends Panel
// Constants for MDI panel event names
public static var MINIMIZE:String = "minimize";
public static var MAXIMIZE:String = "maximize";
public static var CLOSE:String = "close";
public static var RESTORE:String = "restore";

I'm curious to know if this is possible as well (or really the question should be, is there a non-hackish way to get a reference to the skin instance)?
When I've needed to do something like this, I've always just dispatched an event off a skin part from within my skin. IE.
this.contentGroup.dispatchEvent(...)
Then I would just listen for the event on the skin part.
This is a bit hackish, so it would be nice if someone could share a better solution. I've been meaning to look into it, just never have been able to justify the time looking for a better solution.

Event Listeners VS Event Functions

I'm working on a new project at work where there's lots of
custom objects with lots and lots of event listeners. I keep
finding myself saying, "why didn't they just use the built in
objects with built in event handling?". However, from what I can
see it seems like AS3 leans heavily towards using Event Listeners
as opposed to putting event responsibility on the object itself
(E.G. XML.onload). Is there an advantage to this (other than making
it more Java like?) I've always favoured keeping the responsibility
on the object itself because it seems like one less object to keep
track of and also makes things feel more self contained. If I have
10 objects that fire 10 different events, I have to create 10
different event handlers (or 10 different case statements within
the same event handler), whereas with self event handling, I just
code in the event function.
Anyways, I wanted to open discussion to which method of event
handling you prefer and why, and also what you believe the
advantages to this. I was searching google for previous discussions
on this but I couldn't seem to find anything, so I thought I'd get
the ball rolling! Looking forward to reading these, try not to be
too elitist in your posts!!

I tried to change getFileOperation to getFileOperation2 in one of the functions as follows but same problem appeared.
function f3 (event:MouseEvent):void
trace("f3 triggered");
getFileOperation2.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, f4);
Do you have an idea how I can avoid the same function from triggering twice?? thanks a lot

Loading/Unloading a .swf that adds event listeners to the Stage

Hi all,
Disclaimer
Apologies if I suck so bad at using forum search that the answer to this is on page 1 somewhere; I tried...
Question
I am loading and unloading a .swf to which I do not have source code access. This .swf places several event listeners on the stage, as far as I can tell. When the .swf is unloaded, the event listeners placed upon the stage still seem to be in effect. Using unloadAndStop doesn't seem to do it, and I have to target Flash Player 9, anyway, so can't really use it. Is there any other way I can keep this external .swf from holding onto my main movie's stage?
Additional info
All eventListeners and references being set by my code are removed.
I've managed a little contact with the author of the .swf:
I've requested he provide a dispose() method I can call to get all the listeners removed, and send an updated .swf.
He's suggested that I should be able to avoid the problem by loading into a unique ApplicationDomain. I'm not terribly familiar with this, but have given it a try without much success. Is this a valid solution - can I really protect my 'stage' by properly using ApplicationDomains - or do I need to persist in trying to get a public dispose() method built in?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers, John

thanks for reply sir
sir actually, i have not any problem with loading any file but i need to go back to intro.swf file when i click on clsbtn of main.swf, i want unload the main.swf file and panel.swf file
actually i did was, i have intro.swf file and there is button by clicking load main.swf file (where is timeline controling butons) and in the main file automatically load panel.swf file ( where is all animation)
its all play gud , no problem
but my problem is there is a clsbtn in main.swf file and when i click on that button everything should be unload and it should return on the previous position in intro.swf
i hope u understand what i am trying to say

Add event listeners to dynamically loaded symbols?

Hi,
I'm trying to dynamically load different MovieClips based on user input. Several of those clips have embedded url link symbols. How can I add event listeners to the url links if the dynamically loaded MovieClip does not have an instance name? Seems like I can (right?) apply an instance name when the clip is loading, but the event listener doesn't compile because the name is not there yet, so that seems out.
Am I on right track?

Are you saying that you will instnatiate this symbol several times and each time url for this link is going to be different?
There are at list two ways to deal with it.
1. Inside symbol you can dispatch a custom event once it is clicked:
myLink.addeventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
dispatchEvent(new Event("linkClick"));
Wherever you instantiate the symbol (perhaps on timeline):
var symbolInstance:MySymbol = new MySymbol();
symbolInstance.addEventListener("linkClick", onLinkClick);
function onLinkClick(e:Event):void {
// do whatever
Second way would be to pass url value into symbol instance itself and deal with with it on a symbol level. I personally prefere way 1.

Mousewheel not working when over contents of custom panel.

So I have a custom collapisble panel, that when the user mousewheel's while over the header or footer of the panel it the entire page will scroll appropriately, but when the mouse is over the content inside the panel, the entire page won't scroll. I thought it might be the s:Scroller, but taking it out doesn't help. Anyone have the same issue?
Here is the contents of my custom panel.
<s:VGroup width="100%">
 <s:Scroller width="100%" >
 <s:Group>
 <s:layout>
 <s:VerticalLayout horizontalAlign="justify" />
 </s:layout>
 <custom:DG id="connectionsDG" width="100%"
 excludeFrom="blah"
 />
 <custom:Something id="multipleBlah"
 includeIn="blah2"
 />
 </s:Group>
 </s:Scroller>
 <s:Group width="300" bottom="5" top="5" left="5">
 <view:customAddButton id="AddButton"
 excludeFrom="blah" enabled="{enableAddBtn}"/>
 </s:Group>
</s:VGroup>

So the issue is setting MouseChildren = true on my custom Panel, by setting this the children are catching the mouseWheel event, I guess. If I set mouseChildren=false then the mouseWheel works correctly, but then the buttons and scroller within my custom Panel don't work, of course. Anyone have any work arounds?

XML Custom Panels: Samples With Doc are Not Well Formed XML

The custom panel samples in the XMP Custom Panels document (and the accompanying sample file) is not well formed XML (which means that CS3 can't be parsing the file as XML, which would explain how this error made it publication). In particular, the XML declaration is missing the closing "?".
 
 As published it is:
 
 <?xml version="1.0"?>
 
 It should be:
 
 <?xml version="1.0"?>
 
 Note the "?>" rather than ">".
 
 This is in addition to the DOCTYPE SYSTEM URL not resolving to an actual DTD declaration set (which would be:
 
 
 title CDATA #REQUIRED
 type NMTOKEN #REQUIRED
 >

You'll have to do something to prevent your logger from appending to old logs that have been closed. Sorry if that is not very helpful, but I'm not familiar with the logging features in SDK 1.4. For your interest, though, Log4J (which you can get from Apache) also features XML logging, and it solved that rather obvious problem thus:
"The output of the XMLLayout consists of a series of log4j:event elements as defined in the log4j.dtd. It does not output a complete well-formed XML file. The output is designed to be included as an external entity in a separate file to form a correct XML file."
In other words, you would have to wrap the output in an XML header and a root node to be able to use it, which is not difficult to do.

Unloading Module Closing Multiple Custom Panels

I have a requirement where in same screen can be openned N times, i have written a custom panel (module loader inside it) with a close buttonn, to load the same module multiple times. The problem is when i close one panel all the panels are closed. The reason it is closing all the panels is i have included the removeChild inside unload tag of the module loader.
I tried changing the "ml.unloadModule();" to "parent.removeChild(this);" then i acheive what is needed close only the panel that is closed, but the module it not unloaded. Is there any way i can acheive closing only a single panel (this is closed) and unload the module.
Below is the custom panel code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Panel xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
 xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
 xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" width="436" height="340">
 <fx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 [Bindable]public var url:String;
 protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 ml.unloadModule();
 ]]>
 </fx:Script>
 <fx:Declarations>
 
 </fx:Declarations>
 <s:ModuleLoader x="10" y="9" id="ml" url="{url}" width="404" height="277">
 <s:unload>
 if(parent != null)
 parent.removeChild(this);
 </s:unload>
 </s:ModuleLoader>
 <s:Button x="411" y="-23" width="17" height="16" label="Button"
 click="button1_clickHandler(event)" icon="assets/icon_close_down.png"/>
</s:Panel>

Instead of using an unload handler, just call both unloadModule and removeChild in the click handler.

Mouse events ignored in custom skin

 System.out.println("Clicked on Skin");
 getChildren().add(background);
I would at least expect to see the line 134 printed out. I call this spinner from a simple test application, without any event listeners added there.
Has anyone an idea what might happen here?

Hello, you don't register an event handler, you register a listener on the event handler property. So you don't listen for clicks, you listen for changing the registered click handler. You need to register the handler like this:
imgViewDown.setOnMouseReleased(new EventHandler<MouseEvent>() {
 @Override public void handle(MouseEvent event) {
 // your handler
This way you set the mouse release event handler which will be called on click. This code, by the way, would fire your listeners (the onMouseReleased property has changed).

How can I find my custom panel in CS5 using java script

-I made an empty panel using Adobe Configurator 2 and then exported it to /Panels folder.
-My custom panel is now in photoshop and works.
-I added a simple code to onPanelInit():
function onPanelInit()
    var myWindow = new Window ("dialog");
    var myMessage = myWindow.add ("statictext");
    myMessage.text = "Hello, world!";
    myWindow.show ( );
so far so good.
Now instead of creating a new window like I did above, I want to use the new custom panel and add a text to it.
The problem is, how do I do that in java? Where can I find the panel that I should assign the text to?
I know that you can add the text in Configurator, or you can edit the .xml file and add the button there, but my
plan is to create a panel where i can add and remove buttons dynamically and that's why I have to do that in java.
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Petri J

Use Runtime.exec() to run a OS specific command which retrieves OS specific info.
Or use JNI to access a OS specific API which returns the info you want.

How to create a custom panel in the right way (without having an empty panel in the file info) ?

Hi Everyone
My name is Daté.
I'm working in the fashion industry as a designer and Design consultant to help fashion brands improving the design workflow by using Adobe softwares and especially Illustrator.
I'm not a developper, but i'm very interested about the possibility to introduce xmp technology to provide more DAM workflows in the fashion industry.
Fashion designers produce a lot of graphical objects in illustrator or Photoshop. Unfortunately they are faced to a big challenge which is about how to manage, search, classify and get this files faster. Of course PDM system or PLM system are used in the Fashion industry to manage data, but for many companies, implemanting this kind of database is very complex.
When i look at what you can do with xmp, it seems to be an interesting way of managing design files, then i started to follow Adobe instruction to try to build a custom panel.
The main idea is to (Theory) :
create custom panels used by fashion designers to classify their design files.
Use Adobe Bridge to search files, create smart collection to make basic reports in pdf and slideshows
Find someone to make a script able to export metadata in xml files
Use indesign and the xml file to generate automatically catalogues or technical sheets based on xmp values
I have created a custom panel by using the generic panel provided by Adobe and i have modified the fields to feet with the terms used in the fashion industry and it works well.
But unfortunately, when i try to create my own custom panel from scratch with Flashbuilder (4.6) and the Adobe CSExtensionBuilder_2 (Trial version), it doesn't work!
Here is the process :
I have installed flashbuilder 4.6
I have download the XMP Fileinfo SDK 5.1 and placed the com.adobe.xmp.sdk.fileinfo_fb4_1.1.0.jar in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\eclipse\plugins
In Flashbuilder, i have created a new project and select xmp Custom panel
The new project is created in flashbuilder with a field with A BASIC Description Field
To generate the panel, right click the project folder and select xmp / Publish Custom Panel
The panel is automatically generated in the following folder : C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\XMP\custom file info panels\3.0\panels
Go to illustrator, Open the file Info
The panel appears empty
The others panel are also empty
The panel is created and automatically placed in the right folder, but when you open it in Illustrator by selecting the File Info option in the File Menu, this custom panel appears empty!!! (only the title of the tab is displayed). This panel also prevent the other panels to be displayed.
When you delete this custom panels from the folder C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\XMP\custom file info panels\3.0\panels and go back to the File Info, the other panels display their content properly.
I also try to use the plugin XMP Namespace designer to create my own namespace. this plugin is also able to generate a custom panel, but this one also appears empty in AI or Photoshop.
I try to follow the process described in Adobe xmp documentation many times, but it didn't works.
It seems that many peaople have this issue, but i dodn't find a solution in the forum.
I try to create a trust file (cfg), but it didn't work.
It would be so kind if you can help me to understand why i can't create a custom panel normally and how to do it in the right way.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Best regards,
Daté

Hi Sunil,
After many trial, i realize the problem was not coming from the trust file, but from the way i have created the custom panel.
There is 2 different ways, the first described below is not working whereas the second is fine :
METHOD 1 :
I have downloaded the XMP-Fileinfo-SDK-CS6
In the XMP-Fileinfo-SDK-CS6 folder, i copied the com.adobe.xmp.sdk.fileinfo_fb4x_1.2.0.jar plugin from the Tools folder and i pasted it in the plugind folder of Flashbuilder 4.6
The plugin install an XMP project
In Flashbuilder 4.6 i have created a new project (File / New /Project /XMP/XMP Custom Panel)
A new xmp project is created in flashbuilder.
You can publish this project by right clicking the root folder and selecting XMP / Publish Custom Panel
The custom file info panel is automatically published in the right location which is on Mac : /Users/UserName/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Custom File Info Panels/3.0 or /Users/UserName/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Custom File Info Panels/4.0
Despite the publication of the custom file info panel and the creation of a trust file in the following location : "/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/FlashPlayerTrust", the panel is blank in Illustrator.
I try this way several times, with no good results.
METHOD 2 :
I have installed Adobe CSExtensionBuilder 2.1 in Flash Builder
In FlashBuilder i have created a new project (File / New /Project /Adobe Creative Suite Extension Builder/XMP Fileinfo Panel Project)
As the system display a warning about the version of the sdk to use to create correctly a custom file info, I changed the sdk to sdk3.5A
The warning message is : "XMP FileInfo Panel Projects must be built with Flex 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5 SDK. Building with Flex 4.6.0 SDK may result in runtime errors"
When i publish this File info panel project (right click the root folder and select Run as / Adobe illustrator), the panel is published correctly.
The last step is to create the trust file to display the fields in the panel and everything is working fine in Illustrator.
The second method seems to be the right way.
For sure something is missing in the first method, and i don't understand the difference between the XMP Custom Panel Project and the XMP Fileinfo Panel Project. Maybe you can explain it to me.
So what is the best solution ? the right sdk to use acording to the creative suite (the system asks to use 3.3 or 3.5 sdk for custom panels, so why ?)
I'm agree with Pedro, a step by step tutorial about this will help a lot of peaople, because it's not so easy to understand!!!
Sunil, as you belong to the staff team, can you tell me if there is :
A plugin or a software capable to extract the XMP from llustrator files to generate XML workflows in Indesign to create catalogues
A plugin to allow indesign to get custom XMP in live caption
A plugin to allow Bridge to get custom XMP in the Outputmode to make pdf or web galeries from a smart collection
How can you print the XMP data with the thumbnail of the file ?
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Best Regards

How to block execution of event listeners

Hi all,
JDev version : 11.1.1.6
My requirement is that I want to block all event listeners like ActionListeners, SelectionListeners, DisclosureListeners, RowDisclosure listeners when the screen is opened in readonly mode.
I could block ActionListeners by disabling command links and command buttons etc.
But there's no way to block SelectionListeners, DisclosureListeners, RowDisclosure listeners.
So Is there any common code which can block all listeners?
Or is there any EventController or something like that which will allow me to control event execution?

I would have if it was just one screen.
There are hundreds of screens.
Anyways, can't I use any javascript to do this? There are some interfaces like EventListeners , classes like EventConsumer etc. Do none of them provide feature to block event listeners?
