bottom uicomponent does not receive mouse events
- by firemonkey
HI,
I am sure this is very basic, however I am not able to find the solution.
I have a base ShapeContainer(UIComponent). I add a uicomponent which has mouse down listener to ShapeContainer. the listener works great.
When I add a simple sprite(draw square) on the ShapeContainer, The listener does not work any more.
In the code, if I comment below lines, The event listener works fine.
var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
square.graphics.lineStyle(4,0x00FF00);
square.graphics.drawRect(0,0,20,20);
square.mouseEnabled=false;
shapeContainer.addChildAt(square,1);
I have tried few things like, mouseenabled=false on top sprite.
also tried to add addChildAt but non of them did any help.
How can I draw a shape and also have the event listener work.
enter code here
protected function application1_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
var shapeContainer:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
shapeContainer.x=100;
shapeContainer.y=100;
shapeContainer.width=200;
shapeContainer.height=200;
rawChildren.addChild(shapeContainer);
var EventListenerShape:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
EventListenerShape.x=100;
EventListenerShape.y=100;
EventListenerShape.width=200;a
EventListenerShape.height=200;
EventListenerShape.graphics.clear();
EventListenerShape.graphics.beginFill(0xf1f1f1, 0.1);
EventListenerShape.graphics.drawRoundRect(0, 0, 200, 200, 10, 10);
EventListenerShape.alpha = 0;
EventListenerShape.graphics.endFill();
EventListenerShape.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownfunc);
shapeContainer.addChild(EventListenerShape);
var square:Sprite = new Sprite();
square.graphics.lineStyle(4,0x00FF00);
square.graphics.drawRect(0,0,20,20);
square.mouseEnabled=false;
shapeContainer.addChildAt(square,1);
}
private function mouseDownfunc(e:MouseEvent){
trace("mouse Down **");
}
