Problem with .visible

Hi All,

I am creating a comment box in my training tracking tool. General idea was something like that :
1. click icon -> comment box appear

2. enter text -> click 'ok' or 'cancel' button -> close comment box and add to flash coockie.

3. change icon colour if any comment in it.

I created all instances and the issue is that, when you click the icon "Comm1a" (empty) or "Comm1b" (with comment) comment box appear just for milisecond and disappear. I copy whole code to the new file and it works. Don't know why in original file it doesn't.

Please note that:

CommentBox1 - is TextArea for comment

Comm1a - is button for comment box w/o comment

Comm1b - is button for comment box with comment

Comm1ton - is button with mouse over for adding comment

Comm1non - is button with mouse away for deleting comment

Comm1tout - is movie clip on Comm1ton to change graphic depends from mouse position

Comm1nout - is movie clip on Comm1non to change graphic depends from mouse position


import flash.events.Event;

import flash.ui.Mouse;

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

Comm1a.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

Comm1b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

Comm1ton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,AddComm1);

Comm1non.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,RemoveComm1);

Comm1tout.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,over1ok);

Comm1ton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,out1ok);

Comm1nout.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,over1no);

Comm1non.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,out1no);

 

var so = SharedObject.getLocal("frm1","/"); // SO

 

Comm1b.visible = false;

CommentBox1.visible = false;

Comm1tout.visible = false;

Comm1ton.visible = false;

Comm1nout.visible = false;

Comm1non.visible = false;

 

function clickComm1a(event:MouseEvent):void{

          CommentBox1.visible = true;

          Comm1tout.visible = true;

          Comm1nout.visible = true;

}

function over1ok (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.visible = true;

}

function out1ok (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1tout.visible = true;

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

}

function over1no (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.visible = true;

}

function out1no (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1nout.visible = true;

          Comm1non.visible = false;

}

function AddComm1(event:MouseEvent):void{

          CommentBox1.visible = false;

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.visible = false;

          so.data.CommentBox1=CommentBox1.text;

          so.flush();

          Comm1a.visible = false;

          Comm1b.visible = true;

}

function RemoveComm1(event:MouseEvent):void{

          CommentBox1.visible = false;

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.visible = false;

          so.data.CommentBox1=null;

          so.flush();

          CommentBox1.text == null;

          Comm1a.visible = true;

          Comm1b.visible = false;

}

Plus new issue appear. When you press "ok" or "cancel" button which triggers RemoveComm1 or AddComm1, the button you clicked stays visible.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I fixed the issue with the staying "ok" or "cancel" buttons. Still I do not know what it is not working within original program, where i do not use any other libraries or objects that may couse an issue.

I putted addListeners OVER when button appear and removeListeners OUT when button disappear:

import fl.accessibility.CheckBoxAccImpl;

import fl.controls.ProgressBarDirection;

import fl.controls.ProgressBarMode;

import flash.events.Event;

import flash.ui.Mouse;

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

Comm1a.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

Comm1b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

Comm1ton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,AddComm1);

Comm1non.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,RemoveComm1);

var so = SharedObject.getLocal("frm1","/"); // SO

Comm1b.visible = false;

CommentBox1.visible = false;

Comm1tout.visible = false;

Comm1ton.visible = false;

Comm1nout.visible = false;

Comm1non.visible = false;

function over1ok (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1ton.visible = true;

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,out1ok);

}

function out1ok(e:MouseEvent):void {

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

          Comm1tout.visible = true;

          Comm1ton.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, out1ok);

}

function over1no (event:MouseEvent):void{

          Comm1non.visible = true;

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,out1no);

}

function out1no(e:MouseEvent):void {

          Comm1non.visible = false;

          Comm1nout.visible = true;

          Comm1non.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, out1no);

}

function clickComm1a(event:MouseEvent):void{

          CommentBox1.visible = true;

          Comm1tout.visible = true;

          Comm1nout.visible = true;

          Comm1tout.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,over1ok);

          Comm1nout.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,over1no);

}

function AddComm1(event:MouseEvent):void{

          so.data.CommentBox1=CommentBox1.text;

          so.flush();

          CommentBox1.visible = false;

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.visible = false;

          Comm1a.visible = false;

          Comm1b.visible = true;

          Comm1ton.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, out1ok);

}

function RemoveComm1(event:MouseEvent):void{

          so.data.CommentBox1=null;

          so.flush();

          CommentBox1.text == null;

          CommentBox1.visible = false;

          Comm1tout.visible = false;

          Comm1ton.visible = false;

          Comm1nout.visible = false;

          Comm1non.visible = false;

          Comm1a.visible = true;

          Comm1b.visible = false;

          Comm1non.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, out1no);

}

To put things simplier :

WHY THIS IS NOT WORKING ? :

CommentBox1.visible = false;

Comm1tout.visible = false;

Comm1ton.visible = false;

Comm1nout.visible = false;

Comm1non.visible = false;

Comm1a.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

Comm1b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickComm1a);

function clickComm1a(event:MouseEvent):void{

          CommentBox1.visible = true;

          Comm1tout.visible = true;

          Comm1nout.visible = true;

}

Right after the click, objects appear and immediately disappear. If you click rapidly, you can see them switching.

I resolved the issue... I copied everything, ctrl+a, all objects and AS code and putted in new file. Everything works as it should be. I spent 2 days looking for resolution, cause I was sure it should work....

Now simple question : WHY ?
