ActionScript 2.0 :: Disable All Key Inputs

Feb 18, 2009

I am working on an app where I have 'windows' popping up and sometimes overlapping each other. This poses a particular problem that I have not yet been able to find a sollution for:Let's say I have a window called myOptions (a MC containing a form contructed by other MC's, TextFields, Objects etc.). Upon pressing the submit button, another window pops up. This is a custom built confirm dialogue box - let's call it myConfirm.I don't want the user to be able to interact with the myOptions MC while the myConfirm MC is open. Blocking mouse-presses is no problem - I just make an empty MC that fills the whole screen with an onPress / return false on it.However, while the myConfirm is open, the user can still press tab to toggle through the form in myOptions, type text into the textfields an activate the listeners (like posting the form upon Enter keypress).

Manually deactivating textfields, tabs and listeners every time I call a confirm window is not really an option.I could have any number of forms/key listeners open at any time, and keeping track of what to activate and deactivate would be allmost impossible.What I would like is a simple command that I could call when opening a window like myConfirm a command that simply disables/blocks all key presses while the window is open.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Inputs On A Movieclip?

Jul 27, 2010

Im having trouble with the keyboard inputs on a movieclip.is this valid to do? (3 of the same event)

Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, move);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, turn);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fire);

what this does is using only one of these events at a time (the one with the last triggered key) and resets the others. this way I won't be able to move and turn simultaneously.

Flex :: Capturing Combined Keyboard Inputs?

Nov 23, 2011

I am looking for a solution in Flex where I can capture a combination of keyboard inputs such as: [CTRL] + A + B

That is, pressing the CTRL key and the user presses two keys (instead of the usual one).

I can capture the event when somebody keys: [CTRL] + A with the following code:

if (event.ctrlKey && event.keyCode == 65)

How would I capture an additional key so that the event is captured when somebody presses CTRL, A and B?

Flash :: What Exactly Does Adobe Mean By VertexShader Have A Limit Of 8 Inputs

Dec 31, 2011

Does it mean only a total of 8 float values can be passed per vertices's set of data? Does this mean you can only have one of the following?

2 inputs of FLOAT_4.

4 inputs of FLOAT_2.

8 inputs of FLOAT_1.

Any mixture that will add up to a total of 8 float values? Is this the case? Because if it is, it's really misleading in their documentation to say 8 inputs can be used. Maybe I'm having trouble because I haven't formatted my data correctly, but I'm trying to use 9 floats per vertices, as in:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Calculator - Converting Number Inputs To Outputs

Jan 14, 2012

I'm trying to make a calculator that takes a number that is input and then runs it through a formula and outputs it.

Elements:
Input1_txt
Input2_txt
RadioButton1
RadioButton2
Output1_txt
Output2_txt
Output3_txt
Output4_txt
Submit_btn

What I am trying to do is:
part 1. Take the input number of Input1_txt and if RadioButton1 is selected then divide Input1_txt by 2.20462262 but if RadioButton2 is selected then just take the number in Input_txt.
part 2. The outcome of part 1 to be multiplied by (100 minus Input2_txt) then divided by 100.
part 3. When Submit_btn is pressed outputs:
Output1_txt = The result of part 1 minus the answer of part 2, then multiplyed by 2.20462262 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output2_txt = The answer of part 2 multiplyed by 2.20462262 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output3_txt = The result of part 1 minus the answer of part 2 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output4_txt = The answer of part 2 (and rounded to the closest whole number)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get The Numbers Which Is Written By Users Into Text Boxes And Then Use Their Inputs To Make Some Calculations

May 21, 2009

I made all the corrections in my code and got a working one. But what I really want to do is not adding texts into one text field. I need to get the numbers which is written by users into text boxes and then use their inputs to make some calculations. (Like 3+6=9 ). When I assign numbers to variables Ican easily make calculations but what I really want is not that. the numbers should be entered by these text boxes. I think need to change "string" to "number" but when I do this I get error message. I am planning to use the calculation result in some other part of my code. I am wondering if using "return" function useful for me to get the number (the result) of calculation?
