How to stop Touch or Click Event while Swipe Event is in action?

you can stop the swipe event or the click event using stopPropagation(), but those aren't the same event so stopping one isn't going to affect the other.

you can use a boolean:

var stopClickBool:Boolean=false;

stage.addEventListener (TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, fl_SwipeHandler, true, 1);

tile.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showBook, false, -1);

public function fl_SwipeHander(e:TransformGestureEvent):void

  {

stopClickBool=true; 

}

function showBook(e:MouseEvent):void{

if(!stopClickBool){

// your click handler code

}

// reset stopClickBool?

}

kglad‌ Thanks for the reply. As I'm a beginner in as3

In my Main.as

     var tileMap:Dictionary = new Dictionary();

     public var tile:ImageTile; 

     addChild(wall);

     var images:XMLList;

     var total:Number;

     var swipe:Number = 0; 

     var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

     myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("gallery.xml"));

     myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML); 

     stage.addEventListener (TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_SWIPE, fl_SwipeHandler);

     function processXML(e:Event):void {

          myXML = new XML(e.target.data); 

          images = myXML.IMAGE;

          total = images.length(); 

          myXMLLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);

          myXMLLoader = null;  

          var loader:Loader;

          for (var i:uint = 0; i < total; i++)

          {

            tile = new ImageTile();

            wall.addChild(tile); 

            tile.x = i % 3 * 400 + 180;

            tile.y = Math.floor(i / 3) * 650 + 250; 

            var imageName:String = images[i].@FULL;

            path = images[i].@Path;

            var title:String = images[i].@Title;

            var caption:TextField = tile.getChildByName("caption_tf") as TextField;

            caption.text = title;

            tile.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showBook());

            loader = new Loader();

            loader.load(new URLRequest("images/" + imageName));

            tileMap[loader] = tile;

            loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onImageLoad);

            }

           }  

        function onImageLoad(e:Event):void

        {

          var loader:Loader = e.target.loader;

          var tile:ImageTile = tileMap[loader] as ImageTile;

          var image:Bitmap = loader.content as Bitmap;

          image.x = -100; image.y = -100;

          image.width=366; image.height=418;

          var textField:DisplayObject = tile.getChildByName("caption_tf");

          var textFieldDepth:int = tile.getChildIndex(textField);

          tile.addChildAt(image, textFieldDepth);

          tileMap[loader] = null; image.smoothing = true;

        }

     public function fl_SwipeHandler(event:TransformGestureEvent):void

       {

         switch(event.offsetY)

         {

            // swiped down

            case 1:

            {

            if (swipe!=0){

                 Tweener.addTween(wall, {y: wall.y + 650, time:.5, transition:"easeOutSine" } );

                 swipe--;

                 }

            // End your custom code

            break;

            }

            // swiped up

            case -1:

            {

            if (swipe<=(total/5)){

                 Tweener.addTween(wall, { y: wall.y - 650, time:.5, transition:"easeOutSine" } );

                 swipe++;

                 }

            // End your custom code

            break;

            }

        }

  }

This is the code. Here i have to swipe the wall and click the tile to open a book.

But it happens at same time. Please help me.
