Property detail

accelerationX

property

accelerationX:Number [read-write]

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Acceleration along the x-axis, measured in Gs. (1 G is roughly 9.8 m/sec/sec.) The x-axis runs from the left to the right of the device when it is in the upright position. The acceleration is positive if the device moves towards the right.

Implementation
public function get accelerationX():Number
public function set accelerationX(value:Number):void

accelerationY

property

accelerationY:Number [read-write]

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Acceleration along the y-axis, measured in Gs. (1 G is roughly 9.8 m/sec/sec.). The y-axis runs from the bottom to the top of the device when it is in the upright position. The acceleration is positive if the device moves up relative to this axis.

Implementation
public function get accelerationY():Number
public function set accelerationY(value:Number):void

accelerationZ

property

accelerationZ:Number [read-write]

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Acceleration along the z-axis, measured in Gs. (1 G is roughly 9.8 m/sec/sec.). The z-axis runs perpendicular to the face of the device. The acceleration is positive if you move the device so that the face moves higher.

Implementation
public function get accelerationZ():Number
public function set accelerationZ(value:Number):void

timestamp

property

timestamp:Number [read-write]

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

The number of milliseconds at the time of the event since the runtime was initialized. For example, if the device captures accelerometer data 4 seconds after the application initializes, then the timestamp property of the event is set to 4000.

Implementation
public function get timestamp():Number
public function set timestamp(value:Number):void

AccelerometerEvent

()

constructor

public function AccelerometerEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, timestamp:Number = 0, accelerationX:Number = 0, accelerationY:Number = 0, accelerationZ:Number = 0)

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Creates an AccelerometerEvent object that contains information about acceleration along three dimensional axis. Event objects are passed as parameters to event listeners.

Parameters

	`type:String` — The type of the event. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited `type` property. There is only one type of update event: `AccelerometerEvent.UPDATE`.

	`bubbles:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Determines whether the Event object bubbles. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited `bubbles` property.

	`cancelable:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Determines whether the Event object can be canceled. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited `cancelable` property.

	`timestamp:Number` (default = `0`) — The timestamp of the Accelerometer update.

	`accelerationX:Number` (default = `0`) — The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the x-axis.

	`accelerationY:Number` (default = `0`) — The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the y-axis.

	`accelerationZ:Number` (default = `0`) — The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the z-axis.

Method detail

clone

()

method

public override function clone():Event

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Creates a copy of an AccelerometerEvent object and sets the value of each property to match that of the original.

Returns

Event — A new AccelerometerEvent object with property values that match those of the original.

toString

()

method

public override function toString():String

Language version:

ActionScript ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Returns a string that contains all the properties of the AccelerometerEvent object. The following format is used:

[AccelerometerEvent type=value bubbles=value cancelable=value timestamp=value accelerationX=value accelerationY=value accelerationZ=value ]

Returns

String — A string that contains all the properties of the AccelerometerEvent object.

Constant detail

UPDATE

constant

public static const UPDATE:String = "update"

Language version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime version:

AIR 2

Defines the value of the type property of a AccelerometerEvent event object.

This event has the following properties:

Property	Value
`bubbles`	`false`
`cancelable`	`false`; there is no default behavior to cancel.
`currentTarget`	The object that is actively processing the Event object with an event listener.
`timestamp`	The timestamp of the Accelerometer update.
`accelerationX`	The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the x-axis.
`accelerationY`	The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the y-axis.
`accelerationZ`	The acceleration value in Gs (9.8m/sec/sec) along the z-axis.
