ActionScript 2.0 :: Detect A CTRL-C Key Event
Jan 19, 2008
In my application, I need to detect a CTRL-C event. I can detect CTRL-K , CTRL-T , CTRL-U, and a bunch of others, but it seems that CTRL-C is reserved ! First it detects the CTRL , but as long as the CTRL button is held down, it totally ignores C when it's pressed. I know that there was a key combination detection script here on kirupa offered by someone (Michael), but it has this problem as well. how I can detect this combination?? Here is the code Im using to test which key is being detected (Note that debug is the variable name of a textfield on the main timeline, because testing key combination events inside of flash sometimes causes problems):

The flashplayer catches all keys pressed by the user. I'd like to know if there's a way or workaround to pass them to the browser. For instance, Ctrl-T (open new tab in firefox). I'd like to re-enable this shortcut. Maybe with javascript?

I am not able to detect the keyboard event CTRL+V on a swf using AS3 in IE. It seems to trigger the default browser behavior, and im not able to do anything.

I am trying to implement find functionality in my application and for this I am trying to open a find popup based on keyboard inputs like F3 or CTRL + F. But on F3, instead of going to event listener, it opens up the default find toolbar of the Internet Explorer instead. how I could bypass it and use f3 in my application?
Another thing is how do I capture CTRL + F in flex?
private function keyPressed(evt:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if (evt.keyCode == Keyboard.F3)
{

have a question. Is it possible to detect whether the user used or is using ctrl+scroll to enlarge the screen? I was looking at an example of a mouse avoiding game, which could easily be cheated on using ctrl+scroll, so that the passages were larger etc.
Is there any way to detect this inside Flash, and perhaps prevent it?

I have a Flash movie which fills the whole browser window. This means that always the key events are catched ("stolen") by the Flash movie only, when using Firefox. IE7 seems to be working as I want.
I want for example ctrl+w (close window), ctrl+n (new window), ctrl+t (new tab) to work in Firefox while the focus is on my Flash movie. How to accomplish this?

I'm tracking the keyUp state of the CTRL key and I'm okay with the results except when it comes to key combinations. The code I wrote below is for you to see what the issue is.
Press the CTRL/Apple key and you'll see it traces "CTRL on". Release it and you'll see it traces "CTRL off". No problem there. Now press CTRL and then press the A key (as in select all), now release A, then release the CTRL key and you see nothing traces. Does anybody have an idea about a workaround to that? I prefer not to use a continuous ENTER_FRAME hack for that if any.

Try the following code:
myListener = new Object();
myListener.onKeyUp = function() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && Key.getCode() == 67) {
[Code]....
hold Ctrl key and start pressing C. From some point you will notice that there is no KEY_UP event for the C key (there will also be no event for A,X,R,V and maybe more). For most of the button the KEY_UP event will still be dispatched.

I am trying to capture Ctrl+C. I have noticed that many times, there is no KEY_UP event for C key. I believe it happens in cases KEY_UP event for C key should be thrown just before or after KEY_UP event for Ctrlkey.
Why does this happen? How can I catch the KEY_UP for C key?

if I have an event listerner (mouse, keyboard, enterframe,....event) that is being triggered, and when it finishes its event, something that is able to detect the finished event listener and fire out another sets of event.
It works more like MOTION_FINISH in TweenEvent, but it is only available for TweenEvent only, what if I want to detect a mousclick, keyboard, enterframe or even touch event?

In the KeyboardEvent object I get on key-down events, is there a way to know if the event is the first key-down, or a repeat when the key is held down? I want to toggle a setting when a key is pressed; I could listen to key-up but I'd prefer the action is taken as soon as the key is pushed... as long as I can stop it toggling back and forth as the key-down repeat events are generated.

Let's say I have two textfields on my sprite.
I like to move textfield 1 when I press left or right arrow keys, but I also want to move textfield 2 when I press space while textfield 1 is moving like...an airplay game (you can shoot a missile while you're moving).
I really like to post my source code...but I actually have no idea where to begin.
the following code moves textfield 1 when I press arrow keys...
my code snippet:
private function keyHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
switch(event.keyCode)

How can I detect when a user changes a date field - specifically when they TYPE the date as I have set it to editable:
<mx:FormItem label="Assigned" x="220" y="59">
<mx:DateField formatString="YYYY-MM-DD" id="clinicianAssignedDateInput" editable="true" text="@{this._currentEditEncounter.clinicianAssignedDate}"
[Code]....
The change event seems to only throw when using the calendar pop-up. It is not thrown when the user manually types in to the field. I also tried dataChange.

I'm using a keyboard event to detect when a key is pressed. This is what it looks like:
Code:
private function keyPressed(event:KeyboardEvent)
{
switch(event.keyCode)
{
case Keyboard.CONTROL:
ctrlHandle=true;
[Code]...
It's worked up until now. I know that all the keys except the last one work because they carry out their function and the trace on DOWN works. However, for the last one, I've tried W and ALTERNATE (and got errors) and ESCAPE and TAB (both not doing anything, not even returning the trace).

function netStat(event:NetStatusEvent):void {
switch (event.info.code) {
case "NetStream.Play.Start":
Here I would like to detect the mouse position or event. (something like : if mouse over >>>> play with sound >>> else >>> play without sound.
break;

I am learning how to do a custom event in AS3. I can do an event in a class but I dont know how to detect events in other classes. I want to detect in main.as an event reached in class player. E.g., a variable reached a value 4 in class payer and dispatches an event so main.as can detect it. This doesn't give an error but my code doesnt output I can deect an event in main from classplayer.
//main
myplayer=new ClassPlayer();
myplayer.addEventListener("image_loaded",imageLoad edHandler,false,0,true);
myplayer.addEventListener ("watcher_loaded",watcher_loadedHandler,false,0,tr ue);
addChild( myplayer);

I just want to know if there is any TextChange Event or equivalent to that in AS3? I am currently using Adobe Flash CS3 with my AS3 files and I have to detect whether or not my TextTool's value has changed or not. With my data being integers ranging from -4.440 to 3.560, I obviously cannot use the != operator.

I'm having problem with garbage collection in a large, not-so-well-written project that I didn't start. I am getting memory leaks -- and want to make sure that all event listeners on the offending objects are removed. I've gone through the code and done what I can, but still ain't happening -- is there a way in AS3 to take an object and see IF it has an event listener, and to REMOVE that listener -- that is, to remove ALL listeners, without knowing what they are? I know if I know what the EVENT TYPE is then I can use hasEventListener() to figure out if it has a listener of that type (although the presupposes I know all the event types being used), but if I don't know the function that it's subscribing to then I can't remove it.
Or is there some other way to simply nullify an object for GC? I've changed all listeners to weak -- but I think (since the offending objects are FLVPlaybacks) that something in the flash internal setup is still listening to my object (I've gleaned this from FB 4 profiler which I've used in external mode). I would just, at this point, like to see what's going on.
