Property Detail
duration | property |
duration:Number[override] | Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
The duration property controls the amount of time that this effect
will pause. The duration also serves as a timeout on waiting for
the event to be fired, if eventName was set on this
effect. If duration is less than 0, the effect will wait
indefinitely for the event to fire. If it is set to any other time,
including 0, the effect will end either when that duration has elapsed
or when the named event fires, whichever comes first.
The default value is 500.

eventName | property |
public var eventName:String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Name of event that Pause is waiting on before ending.
This parameter must be used in conjunction with the
target property, which must be of type
IEventDispatcher; all events must originate
from some dispatcher.
Listening for eventName is also related to the
duration property, which acts as a timeout for the
event. If the event is not received in the time period specified
by duration, the effect will end, regardless.
This property is optional; the default action is to play without waiting for any event.
Constructor Detail
Pause | () | Constructor |
public function Pause(target:Object = null)| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Constructor.
Parameterstarget:Object (default = null)eventName attribute assigned. If there
is an eventName, then the target must be an object
of type IEventDispatcher, because it is expected to dispatch
that named event. A null target is allowed for this effect since
a Pause effect with simply a duration property is
not acting on any specific target and therefore does not need one.
