Sep 26, 2007
how to change the directional arrows to keyboard letters on keypress. the browser scrolls when i press arrow up and down arrows and it's quite annoying. i just want to change the keypress of up arrow to w, then left arrow to a, right arrow to d and down arrow to s. just one of any will do then i'll do the rest.
here's the code:
function detectKeys() {
var ob = _root.char;
var keyPressed = false;

How can I move a ball to the left once the left arrow is pressed, so the ball moves to the left side and should automatically return to the right once it reaches the end of the stage... And the same thing should be applied to the right arrow.

I have a swf that I'd like to navigate with keyboard arrows to access each active button.
(a) navigating through 'hit state' buttons on a menu page using arrow keys
(b) a highlight_mc that remains on the focus item.In the same swf I also have key press methods in place.
I feel like this is an easy issue, but maybe some input form a PRO could unlodge my thinking.

For the last few months I've been just experimenting with different actionscript elements, and Ive slowly built up a stick figure to move around on the Stage. He can collide with platforms, jump, etc. and there is an appropriate animation for each movement, and there is gravity effects, you get the idea.Well, normally, I just use the following method to activate a animation when I press say the Right Arrow Key:
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
guy.gotoAndStop("runRight");
guy._x+= moveSpeed;

I posted this question before , but never got an answer that I understood or could get to work - so now that I have something to show I thought I would post it with the question again.
Have a look at this :[URL].. Now, once the screen says "GO!" I want player 1 to be able to move that blue horse across the screen to the finish line (where it will have a hitTest to decide the winner).

Im Using Flash Basic 8, Here is what I am trying to do:
For the last few months I've been just experimenting with different actionscript elements, and Ive slowly built up a stick figure to move around on the Stage. He can collide with platforms, jump, etc. [code]...
But the problem is, the Movie Clip associated with the frame "punchRight" does not loop. It just goes to the first frame and stays there. I verified that the issue was not the Movie Clip or the frame by replacing the D Key, with the Right Key, and the animation played as I would expect.

I'm making a portfolio site in flash. I've placed all these items horizontal in a movieclip (content_MC). In a layer on top of where this movieclip is placed in, I've got a left and a right arrow. What I want is to move this horizontal movieclip (with tweener) left and right by pressing the arrows. For example: when I press the right arrow, the content_MC should move -900px to the left. How can this be done? And if the user reaches the end of the movieclip (with 5 items that would be 4 clicks) the movement should disable.

I need help with a project asap. I am new to AS. I need to be able to change from each text box by use of arrows,tab, and enter keys. Also, the user inputs a number into the textbox and from there I am checking to see if it is the correct one. It is telling me too early that it is wrong before I input.

I'm currently implementing an 'interactive map', and I want the mouse cursor to change (from one to, two, to three arrows custom-made arrows), when the user 'mouses over' certain parts of the map. For example, there is currently 4 x3 grid on the map and when the user mouses over to each of the four corners, the cursor will change to three arrows (which have already been designed), and when the cursor mouses over the grid on the 8th grid on the right, the cursor will change to two arrows..... and so on.

I have this text String in an Array. It'll be sent to a TextField, but first I'd like to change the color of one of the letters. Like this:
some_array = ["This i<font color='#000000'>s</font> an example"];
But I'd like to do it with actionscript, so I can enter a number and one of the letters changes color. In this example the number is 7, since 's' is the 7th letter.

he problem I'm having is I can't make this code reusable- I want to use it in a more linear fashion for banners rather then dynamically with mouse clicks. Has anyone had any luck using this in a timeline?This is my attempt to customize at the moment (old_loc is coming up as undefined, which in turn makes new_loc NaN):
PHP Code:
import flash.geom.*;
import flash.display.BitmapData;

I am quite new to the world of Flash (as far as developing anyway), so here's my question: Can Flash intergrate Bi-Directional Dynamic Text? I know Flash can read text (from a text file) and input it Dynamically in a movie, but can it do the reverse? Can it take text, data, and/or variables created by actionscript or input text fields (both from within the movie) and write it into an existing or new text file?

I'm writing an application using a DataGrid DG1 in a MovieClip MC1. The User can click on DG1 and edit it, ok, no problem. But when the User begins to edit the content of a specific cell of DG1, I want to open a dedicated wizard in front of it. In the first step of that wizard popup (MovieClip MC2, child of MC1), there is another DataGrid (DG2) and I would like the User to be able to directly use the up and down keyboard arrows to browse the DG2 content without having to click it first.
But the keyboard events are then captured by DG1. I tried to use a stage.focus, setFocus, I triggered MouseEvents on DG2 but nothing to do, I have to physically click on it before the keyboard events are sent to it. So, my question is: how to, within MC1, tell Flash the keyboard events will be triggered on DG2 ? Can we ask DG1 to loose the (keyboard) focus ?

I've uploaded a Chatango chat-box on a site of mine, and it worked fine, until I added <'param name="wmode" value=" transparent"/> to make the Chat-box transparent, because it fits nicer to my site. In that case, the browser would take as a default that my Keyboard is set to English, and so I cannot use some characters, while some others are switched, because I'm otherwise using a Slovenian keyboard setting. How do I make the chat-box transparent without the change in my Keyboard language?

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.
