Is there a way to disable all TouchEvents on children in AS3? - actionscript-3

To simplify the question:
I'm looking for something exactly like the typical mouseEnabled=false, mouseChildren=false that works for TouchEvents. Did anyone at Adobe think to implement that?

I would like to ask about my project, here is my problem, I want to make kind of quiz that if I fill it with right answer the pop up question is dissapear, then if I fill it with wrong answer it will go to game over scene,,
What kind of actionscript that I have to use for my problem above?
Big thanks to anyone who help,, 🙏🙏🙏
It depends on the functionality your trying to achieve Like the above post you can use javascript for a simple quiz if your looking for something more visually appealing i.e. (animations) it would probably be easier in as3 using animate.

Is Scene2d the best approach for creating a tetris like game using libgdx?

I would like to know if using Scene2d is the best approach for creating a tetris like game using libgdx ?
If yes, what's the approach ? each block is an actor ?
How can I achieve this easily ?
Well that's a bit of a broad question for this kind of format isn't it? :-) I'll try and answer anyway - to get your tetris game going (without much knowledge of libgdx), just take apart & understand an existing example! Download https://github.com/jmillikan/gdx-tetris and have a play around with it, you'll figure out the best fitting approach to execute your specific idea soon enough. Happy coding :-).
For simple games, like Tetris, you don't need to use something as complicated as Scene2d. Instead, just use a 2 dimensional array that represents the board.
board[x][y]=0 //Empty
board[x2][y2]=1 //Filled (or give each block an id)
The draw your screen with a spritebatch.

Data Paging With Pure AS3

I have a Flash Datagrid component being populated by data from Robotlegs services. However as the datagrid needs to show more and more rows of info I need to implement a way of loading the data as it is needed. Ideally this will be as the user scrolls down the list, I have seen this in Flex examples but I could do with a pure AS3 solution. Does anyone have any guidance or ideas how to approach this?
Here is the Flex example: http://www.jamesward.com/2010/10/11/data-paging-in-flex-4/
Any guidance would be appreciated.
I think you'll need to extend the Flash DG to use something like an AsyncListView and look at the AsyncListView to see how it does it, then write it to generate the correct events when an item isn't found, but remove any dependencies to Flex. You'll also need to do something that acts like the Responder class to support having different overlapping calls to the same service.

JQuery or canvas layout tool (snap to grid)

I'm trying to implement some kind of drag and drop snap to grid similar to something like this
http://wordsquared.com/. Was contemplating trying to use JQuery UI and somehow save the position of the items. Seems like snapping to a grid, and saving would be a fairly common scenario. I was contemplating trying to implement this all in Drupal, any suggestions, examples, things I ay not be aware of would be very helpfull.
It sounds like the Homebox module may be close to what you're looking for.

AS3 Touch Class Examples?

Anybody know any good resources for touch interface in AS3? Maybe with example downloads of simple user interface examples such as swiping lists etc. I could write code that reacts to the mouse events but I was wondering if their is a more a intuitive way of doing it using the native touch events class? Thanks. I also believe better 3rd party classes are available but I would rather stick with the adobe classes right now unless you guys think otherwise?
