I am using Actionscript 2 in Flash CS5, and I have "on(keypress)" actions, that allows the user to navigate using the arrow keys on the keyboard. However, as soon as I add any of the "components", it disables the entire keyboard. I am trying to add a scrollpane, and the scrollpane works but it disables the keyboard in both the projector mode using flash player, or in html using the Internet browser.
View 1 RepliesI have two sort of calculation aspects in a game. I have a calculator that I'm loading as an swf into my project, and I have a small app that is coded in the exercise that the user can enter numbers. Here's the thing, when I punch in numbers into my coded app, the numbers appear on the calculator (in the display). So I figure that when I hit a keyboard key, it goes to both aspects. I wish it'd only do the one present on the screen. So I have a few ways of thinking. Go into the code of the seperate calculator app and display keyboard input. Or find a way to only apply keystrokes to whatever is on the screen.

I have an AIR application that uses the HTML component to display a significant portion of content (I set the html myself, it is not loaded remotely). The text displays normally on Mac (I think Mac antialiases all text by default). However, on windows, the text displays anti-aliased regardless of the OS settings. It ends up giving everything a red tint.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to control whether or not the text gets anti-aliased. Does anyone know if there's a way to to this in Flex / AIR?

View 1 RepliesAccessibility is driving me up the WALL! I have a system that has menu pop-ups and because of accessibility when the user selects OK it does what ever action the pop-up does and when the user presses ESC it leaves the menu. My issue is this all works fine when testing it in the swf file and selecting the 'disable keyboard shortcuts' BUT when I embedded it into HTML is loses this function and the short cuts stop working and at points activate html stuff. Is there a line of code or something that I can place in the .swf or .html that will disable the keyboard shortcuts?
View 2 RepliesI want to get rid of the typical Flex roll-over color in list-based components, and to display my own style of roll-over rendering. Setting useRollOver to 'false' is not an option, since disabling that will also make the List.isItemHighlighted() function to always return false. My custom renderer relies on that function. Can it be so hard? Is there no way of setting that roll-over color to transparent? Is there some other way for my renderer to figure out if an item is highlighted?
View 3 RepliesHow can I enable or disable a group of components in flex (flash builder 4)?
For example, if I have a window with several fields, I want to disable them based on the users permissions.
I know I can add the enabled="true" or "enabled="false", and I can also use enabled="{writeAccessVar}"
However, I am looking for more ideas, as I might have more than one group of fields on the screen, or more complicated user permissions.
For example, I will currently have one field with write access, the other fields on the screen read only for a certain user level.
For a higher level user, all fields are writable. Lower level, all are read-only.
I'm trying to capture keyboard events with the following code. I'm testing in an external popup flash player in FlashDevelop and it ain't tracing anything. I reckon it might be something to do with keyboard shortcuts in the flash player.
But I can't find where to disable them?

package {
import flash.display.Sprite;

I have 2 scenes. In both scenes, I have a movie clip that moves via keyboard control. If the goto next scene is triggered by the movie clip in the first scene the keyboard control works in the second. However, if I use a button to move to the next scene then there isn't any control over the movieclip in that scene. I've traced the keyCode in the second scene and it is picked up but the switch statement doesn't run. I'm migrating to Actionscript 3.0 and updating something I created in 2.0. I would like to do it without writing a class.

View 2 RepliesProject. To create a flash box that allows a visitor to enter 1) email 2) phone number 3) preferred method of contact. Then they can hit submit. That information is sent to a php which sends an email to the administrator letting them know to contact someone. Reason it is done in flash. I have a "tab" graphic appear and in the tab is the entry form. When they hit submit the information is sent and the tab lowers out of site then raises back up with a confirmation message that the message was sent.
Problem: The tabs work in annimation. I know that the code works to send information to php and that the php works to send the email. But, my issue is with the GUI. When the flash is rendered, the field boxes do not show up. See image below. Setup: To get the fields to move with the tab I have them as separate objects within the symbol of the tab that moves.

I have bought some flash components that used to work in Flash 8 and CS3, but suddenly they do not appear in my components list within Flash CS4 ! I have reinstelled them with components exchange and apparently they are successfully installed , but once I enter Flash CS4 there are not.
View 3 RepliesThis might seem a silly question but I am sitting here for a few hours wondering how I could change the text color for my components.
For example I have a DropDown Component and I change its skin (all the states) and put in a dark skin (I dragged the component on the stage and edited it). The text on the component, however is black and cannot be read. How could I change the component's text to white.
why are those "values" input and component windows so badly designed, not resizable (well kind of albeit terribly badly) etc... This is an eyesore and a practical pain in the a**. Seriously Adobe... all these talks about "accessibility" etc... shouldn't it start in your own software ?!? You can fix this it's 2010.
