How I can restrict actions to the stage? I have objects that float dynamically when I move the mouse over the stage. If I publish my file as html and click on the area surrounding the stage the objects move...
View 2 RepliesI've done a website with different pages using the Loader component. On one page I have a movieclip that has different images (like a slideshow) that fade between each other. I'm trying to add an action to make the movieclip pause for a few seconds between each fade. So I've added this action between each fade (in a layer, above the graphics layers, that only holds actionscript):
Code:
stop();
function restart(){

How do I restrict a mc to a certain area of the stage? I am going to have some buildings on the top of my stage and I don't want my character to be able to walk past the street level.So basically I don't want him to be able to go off the stage or up some to be determined height.
View 6 RepliesAs this involves assorted dragging interactions to understand this explanation take a look at the file.URL...it should work like the last item on this page, called exploring kite interactive Url...I have a mc which includes 5 dots that can be dragged in various ways.each one needs to be limited to the stage area when it is being dragged.The limit should only apply to the dot when being dragged. If a dot being dragged causes another to exit the stage area that is fine.I have tried a few ways, none work too smoothly.One issue is that a dot which stops dragging at the edge can be hard to pick again.Another issue is that if you drag really fast you can drag a dot offstage. This is usually when the top or bottom dot is dragged quickly from where it has stopped at the edge and the mouse is released just outside the stage.FLA is attached.
View 7 RepliesI have need to restrict user input. TextInput should restrict all special characters and punctuation. Any other characters are allowed. In java there is a regex patter:
replaceAll("\p{Punct}", "_")
Is there something similar in actionscript?
I have a very simple .fla. One frame, one button on the main stage. I have named the button and when I right click>actions, it says I can't put actions in this area. So then I put the Actions on the main timeline/keyframe. The code below works, but I can't get code to work in the button that I placed on the main stage. This button is dynamically placed by the first two lines of code.
Code:
var MyButton:ButtonOne = new ButtonOne();
MyButton.x = 100;
MyButton.y = 300;
addChild(MyButton);
MyButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,startMC);
function startMC(event:MouseEvent){
myMovieClip.gotoAndPlay(11);
}
If I try to just have the code that looks something like this..
Code:
ButtonOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startMC);
//movie clip function startMC sits here..
I get an error saying the symbol doesn't exist.
I've ran into a very nasty little problem that has been buggin me for few days.
Basically I have a main (parent) swf which loads the content of the sub pages into a MovieClip called mc_container.
Inside every child SWF I have a code to repostion and resize its contents as I need with stage.addEventListener (Event.RESIZE, relocateandresize);
But the problem is, once this SWF is embedded into the main (parent) swf, this code stops working.
I have a movie with two squares. Depending on which button is pressed, the demmensions of the both squares change for which I used the following function:
Code:
function scaleMoveClip(clip, breed, hoog, xpos, ypos, snelheid) {
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
eindX = xpos-this._x;
[code]....
The code for the other buttons is the same but with other arguments. Now do I also need to integrate a loadMovie in the different button actions, to load the different ext.swf's in a container on the stage, but I only want the swf's to load after the callback is finished (when the squares qre not moving any more) How does the loadMovie should look like?
I have a series of frames one the timeline. Each frame has a graphic and a mouse click leads to the next frame. Think Myst.
[Code]...
When the middle frame is returned to, clicks no longer change anything. I believe that the actions of the 'left' frame are replacing the one's in the middle frame so then it is told to gotoAndStop to itself.
I'd like to know if that is indeed what is happening and how I can make it stop.
1. Can i put another set of actions in frame 2 of the actions layer?i tested but it doesn't seem to work..it has 836 rows of code and it's getting annoying when tryin to search for a function..
2. I am not that familiar with classes, i usually put all the code into movieclips or in actions layer.. i am not sure if i can call a function from a actionscript class..
3.I am curios if there is any way i could specify an alternative for the if statement like in this pseudocode:
if ( apple is not clean BUT is tasty)
{
eat(apple)
}
to be loaded by just one .html ??I have one book which was converted page to swf. Each swf will be inside one .html, pag1.html contains pag1.swf, I'd like to avoid the direct url reference to pag1.swf.Any way of detecting the URL of html the swf file is embedded in?
View 3 RepliesI'm having trouble with the new keyframing model in Flash CS4.Say I have a symbol that starts here, then moves over there, then waits, then moves back over there again, etc. etc.Using the new model, all of these movements seem to be considered the same and single tween.If I apply easing, the easing affects the entire range of keyframes. This doesn't make sense? I may want the symbol to slow down when it gets "there" and have different easing for different movements. Does this make sense?

I use a TextInput component of Flex 4.5 to enter some text in English. I use the restrict attribute to ... restrict the keyboard input to characters a-zA-Z only. The problem is that if i copy/paste a word in another language, i can then paste it into the TextInput component. Is there a way to avoid that? If no, how can i validate the input against a specified language?I found out that the unicode set of Chinese+ language symbols is u4E00 to u9FFF. So i write the following:

if (inputTI.text.match(chRE)) {

I want to have a webcam site where a user can broadcast their webcam and people can view it.
ActionScript Code:
netstream.publish("broadcast");
This was pretty easy to do.
The problem seems to be that anyone can broadcast over any netstream.
would someone be able to hijack a users broadcasting netstream?
could you publish through a php file to confirm sercurity?
ActionScript Code:
netstream.publish("http://example.com/netstreampublish.php?room=broadcast");
PHP Code:
<?php//perform security check is the real broadcaster//redirect to stratus?>
If I had my own stratus server, would I be able to do security checks before allowing broadcasting?
