Flash Lite 2.x and 3.0 ActionScript Language Reference

onReleaseOutside (MovieClip.onReleaseOutside handler)

onReleaseOutside = function() {}

Invoked when the mouse button is pressed inside the movie clip area and then released outside the movie clip area.

You must define a function that executes when the event handler is invoked. You can define the function on the Timeline or in a class file that extends the MovieClip class or is linked to a symbol in the library.

Note: This event handler is supported in Flash Lite only if System.capabilities.hasMouse is true or System.capabilities.hasStylus is true.

Example

The following example defines a function for the onReleaseOutside method that sends a trace() action to the Output panel:

my_mc.onReleaseOutside = function () {
    trace ("onReleaseOutside called");
}
