I can’t seem to get doubleclick to work ever…

Click works…

```auto
test.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gogoGadget);
test.buttonMode = true
function gogoGadget(e:MouseEvent){
trace ('gogo gadget!');
    }

```

Now doubleclick… Nothing!? ?

```auto
test.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, gogoGadget);
test.buttonMode = true
function gogoGadget(e:MouseEvent){
trace ('gogo gadget!');
    }

```

Do I have to make my own doubleclick function?

Wow, thanks!

I wonder why they did that… Efficiency?[quote=Krilnon;2350845] ActionScript Code:
