Is there a way to completely disable some loaded swf from executing actions? Im developing an application in Flash and it should be able to load user-submited swf entries and I dont like the possibility of an attack.
View 8 RepliesI have a movie clip instance ("mc1") on the Stage. When the .fla file is run I want the movie clip to do something when it is clicked, so I put in the following code:
function handlemc1(event:MouseEvent):void
{
// do something here
}
mc1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handlemc1);
This code works fine. Now, there are times when I will want to disable "mc1" so that it doesn't respond to a click. So I execute this code in those circumstances:
mc1.enabled=false;
But this seems to do nothing. When the user clicks "mc1" the code inside "handlemc1" is executed. I even put a trace inside "handlemc1" which prints out the value of mc1.enabled. The value that is printed to the output window is "false".
I would be grateful if someone could tell me why setting "mc1.enabled=false;" did not stop "mc1" from responding to the click event. Also, is there another way to disable "mc1"?
What will my movie clips not disable here. They are still clickable? I get my trace 24 times. what am i doing wrong. I have 24 cards all named card0_mc - card23_mc.[code]
View 2 RepliesIs there anyway to disable the movie from playing when I hit Enter? I've got a button press later on that needs Key.ENTER. I could change it, but it is the only key that makes contextual sense.

I have a screen with transparency that pops up over a movieclip full of buttons.I need to disable the movie clip and/or buttons so they don't function when the pop up comes up.Can't get it to work with this code:

or
myMC.myBTN._enabled=false;

I have some buttons, and above them a movie clip with a 20% transparency which I use for some graphic effects in my page. But the buttons can't be accessed (they are not working) because the layer covers them.I have used the following code to disable the graphic layer:overlay_mc.buttonMode = false;overlay_mc.enabled = false;overlay_mc.mouseEnabled = false;but none of these solves the problem. The buttons are still covered and inactive.

i have a navigation with buttons that load external movie clips into a empty movie clip. Yes, very simple.if i click on the button to load the swf repeatedly, it will re-load the movie repeatedly (very annoying). I want to disable the button after it has been clicked once, and re-enable it when another button is clicked.The buttons reside inside a movie clip on the main stage.The empty movie clip resides on the main stage.heres the code for one of the buttons:
on (release) {
_root.target_clip.loadMovie("updates_nav.swf","1") ;
}
I just want it to load once then disable the button. I tried the button.enabled=false into the brackets but i get no results.

I have an swf with several movie clips set up to work as navigation buttons (using _up, _over and _down frame labels). The same navigation swf is used by several different HTML pages and navigates between them.
I want to pass the swf a variable with FlashVars in the object/embed script that will disable the movie clip button for the page the user is currently on.
In AS3 myClip.enabled = false; only removes the rollover behavior of the clip, but does not prevent the clip from receiving mouse events.
How can I disable the clip completely so that it does not respond to events?
How do I set up an array (or other method), to disable the visibility of a group of movie clips all at once?
I've tried this...
var invisibleMCs:Array = new Array ("MC1", "MC2", "MC3");
invisibleMCs._visible = false;
Is there a code in actionscript 2.0 for flash cs4 to disable left-clicking in IE on a flash swf embedded in an html page...the movie does not contain any buttons, but calls an xml file which contains path to images to be displayed. I tried using another swf file to call the original one (since original one I have only the swf available to use, no fla) but although it works fine in firefox, in IE it still allows users to click on the flash, and also changes to hand-cursor, while should have been the default cursor in use by windows, and no clicking (except right-click)... code is as follows:
Code:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
var dewsliderpath = _root._url.substring(0, _root._url.lastIndexOf("/")) + "/dewslider.swf?xml=" + xml;

I'm making a game in which the player must use the num pad keys to toggle switches. That flipping numlock key. If it's off the key codes change using
Key.getCode(); or
Key.getAscii();
So for example when the numlock is on 1 returns key code 97. But when numlock is off it returns 35 (for the key 'End'. Is there a way to disable or set the numlock key to on or 'toggled' when starting a flash movie?
I have been having some trouble with a movie clip basically designed to act as a button for a store front for a website.This movie clip has, stored as the front of the movie (i.e. before you click in to edit the movie) the following code:
on(rollOver){
gotoAndPlay("Over");
}[code]..........
This gives the movie the hover over and out effect and animates the button so as once pressed the button expands to give a 'Product Details' view.However, when clicked the info shows up as it should but the hit area which I put into the Movie Clip is still on the info area so none of the contents on this new window are accessible and when the cursor leaves the designated info area the movie clip returns to its first stage as it would appear at the start of the animation.Is there any simple way to disable the HitArea on specific frames within a Movie Clip?
I am using Greensock to tween and during a rollOver I need to disable some buttons. I am pretty sure the code is right but the buttons do NOT disable?

not sure how difficult this is going to be, but I have 30 movie clips, which will all be sequentially numbered. (pos1, pos2, pos3......pos30). They will all have the same functions, with the only change being the number. I know there is a more efficient way to write this code using arrays, but I will need help with it. I would rather have 10 lines of code than 150. I also need help with writing the code, that will disable all other movie clips, once the first one is clicked. Also, not sure how tricky the javascript part will be. Below is the code i am trying to achieve, but the long version.

I am using a flash swf from the website[url]...where it allows me to upload images via an xml file to the flash movie. However the flash movie is changing the mouse cursor to hand-cursor when passing the mouse on it, and also it is allowing users to click on the movie, while I wanted to leave the mouse cursor to remain as an arrow, and prevent users from clicking on it, I tried the following code, whereby I used another flash movie to call the dewslider swf, but in IE it is not working, although in firefox it is ok..[code]...
View 4 RepliesDoes anybody know how to disable TLF in CS5, specifically, on import of an AI file?
When I import an .ai file into Flash, I want the text to come in as classic text becasue the TLF is to memory intensive and makes my application unusable (the application is very font heavy).
Right now, my workaround is to produce the assets of the file in CS4 and then open it with and convert to CS5. This is fine for the initial build, but is a pain when I need to make updates to the file.
Is there a way to use ActionScript to disable all buttons in a movie at the start of the movie (or at any given time in the movie), and then re-enable them at a certain time? I'm using Flash MX (only version I have access to), and I know how to get to the ActionScript panel and use it for basic things like stopping/playing a movie or jumping to a certain frame, but I haven't figured out much about ActionScript beyond that.
(btw, what version of ActionScript does Flash MX have?

View 3 RepliesHow to disable Alt F4 in a swf file
View 1 RepliesI know it should be simple, but I can't find a solution to this question.
How do i disable a particular key in AS3?
On the root, I have a movieclip (input). Within it is 1 frame of codes (well, 2 layers, each with 1 frame of code...).
Alongside on the root, I have another movieclip (banana), which has a stack of animation within... the first frame within is labelled "main".
What I wanted was that if banana's current frame was main, then input is untouched (enabled). If banana's current frame WASN'T main, then input is disabled ENTIRELY (everything within is disabled as well, especially the frames of code).
What I have tried was applying this code on a frame on the root timeline:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if(banana.currentFrame = main); {
input.enabled = false;
[Code]....
I looked up some things and they said that enabled false or true only applies directly to the movieclip, and leaves all codes within the MC untouched.
