Language Version : ActionScript 3.0
Player Version : Flash Player 9.0.28.0

The MotionEvent class represents events that are broadcast by the fl.motion.Animator class. Use these events with an event listener to initiate custom functions. For example, if you have an Animator instance named abox_animator, Flash Player executes the following trace statement when the animation is complete: 
 import fl.motion.MotionEvent;
 abox_animator.addEventListener(MotionEvent.MOTION_END,afterMotion);
 function afterMotion(e:MotionEvent) {
    trace("animation complete!");
 }

Constructor Detail
MotionEvent()Constructor
public function MotionEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false)

Language Version : ActionScript 3.0
Player Version : Flash Player 9.0.28.0

Constructor.

Parameters
type:String — The event type; indicates the action that caused the event.
 
bubbles:Boolean (default = false) — Specifies whether the event can bubble up the display list hierarchy.
 
cancelable:Boolean (default = false) — Specifies whether the behavior associated with the event can be prevented.
Constant Detail
MOTION_ENDConstant
public static const MOTION_END:String = "motionEnd"

Language Version : ActionScript 3.0
Player Version : Flash Player 9.0.28.0

Indicates that the motion has stopped, whether by an explicit call to Animator.stop() or Animator.end(), or by reaching the end of the Motion instance.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use myButton.addEventListener() to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the currentTarget.
targetThe object that dispatched the event; it is not always the object listening for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the object listening for the event.
