Window.mouseDownOutside 1485

The second usage example uses an on() handler and must be attached directly to a Window

instance. The keyword

this, used inside an on() handler attached to a component, refers to

the component instance. For example, the following code, attached to the Window instance

myWindowComponent, sends “_level0.myWindowComponent” to the Output panel:

on (mouseDownOutside) {

trace(this);

}

Example

The following example creates a window instance and defines a mouseDownOutside handler

that displays a message if the user clicks outside the window. You drag a Window component

from the Components panel to the current document’s library, and then add the following

code to Frame 1:

/**

Requires:

- Window component in library

import mx.managers.PopUpManager;

import mx.containers.Window;

System.security.allowDomain("http://www.flash-mx.com");

// Create window.

var my_win:MovieClip = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, Window, true,

undefined, true);

// Create a listener object.

var winListener:Object = new Object();

winListener.mouseDownOutside = function(evt_obj:Object)

{

trace("mouseDownOutside event triggered.");

}

// Add listener.

my_win.addEventListener("mouseDownOutside", winListener);
