Hi,

i have a movieClip on which i have to perform a "double click" event so is there any Event or procedure to perform this event like we have "MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK" in AS3.

i have used the code

dbc.onRelease = dbClick;

function dbClick(){

    if(lastclick - (lastclick=getTimer()) + 500 > 0){

           dbC.text = "double click"

    } else {

                       return;

    }

}

its working when i used this code on frame but this code is not working on external AS file. the error related to lastclick.

is there any code like..  "instanceName.addEventListener('DoubleClick', functionName);" in AS2

Looking for your help ..

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply.

i am using this code

AS2:

dbc.onRelease = dbClick;

var lastclick:Number;

function dbClick(){

    if(lastclick - (lastclick=getTimer()) + 500 > 0){

          trace("doubleclick");

    } else {

                      trace("single click");

    }

}

function dbClick(){

    if(lastclick - (lastclick=getTimer()) + 500 > 0){

          trace("doubleclick");

    }

}

there's no as2 double click event like as3.  you have to code it yourself, just like you've done.

if you're code is not working, it's because you have some error that's not apparent from the code you posted.  use the trace() function to debug.
