We often have the problem of sequencing animations and events, e.g. 1. close all windows, 2. move somewhere else, 3. open windows.

To make our lives a little bit easier I was looking for a simple class that we can use to sequence those tasks. I looked around but couldn’t find anything that was small, simple to fit our needs. So I wrote one called SimpleSequencer.

In some cases you just want to pass along an Event to it’s parent. Instead of writing a new relay function like..

myEvtDisptchr.addEventListener(Event.TYPE, _onEvent_handler);
function _onEvent_handler($evt:Event):void{
dispatchEvent($evt.clone());
}

..you can just use the inherited function dispatchEvent:

myEvtDisptchr.addEventListener(Event.TYPE, dispatchEvent);

you can also redirect an Event:

myEvtDisptchr.addEventListener(Event.TYPE, myOtherEvtDisptchr.dispatchEvent);

Simple.
