Disabling a button in AS3 (myMC.enabled in AS3)
I ran across the problem the other day of trying to disable a button without removing its MouseEvent listeners.
In AS2 you could simply disable a button by setting it’s “enabled” property to false.
AS2
myMC.enabled = false;
The new and improved way is:
AS3
myMC.mouseEnabled = false;
Note: this requires you have a button with its MouseEvent listeners already set.
This is different than AS2 in that you can actually disable all mouse events for any display object - not just buttons. So be careful what you disable!
