does anyone know how to disable keyboard inputs, such that, for example, the user could not push enter to advance to the next frame? this could be a potential problem for the application i�m developing -- i want to force the users to use mouse clicks to advance the movie.

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.
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.
i have a button (not a movie clip) and have implemented a mouse_over / mouse_down that causes the button to light up just by adding a keyframe inside the button itself I have also included a keyboard event that dispatch that mouse_event.click whenever the space bar is pressed.How do I trigger that button's mouse_over, such that when the spacebar is pressed , the button will light up, using as 3 code?
View 3 RepliesI 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?
I am trying to create a project where every input (mouse and keyboard) is logged to a text file with a time stamp from a .swf file. The premise is to record this data for usability research. For example, I want to record how long the user waits between clicking on buttons, which order they click on buttons, etc.
View 3 RepliesI heard that the flash action script 3 is disabled the keyboard interaction on full screen mode. How can I enable.
View 1 RepliesI am using Actionscript 2 in Flash CS5, and I have "on(keypress)" actions, that allows the user to navigate using the arrow keys on the keyboard. However, as soon as I add any of the "components", it disables the entire keyboard. I am trying to add a scrollpane, and the scrollpane works but it disables the keyboard in both the projector mode using flash player, or in html using the Internet browser.
View 1 RepliesI have two sort of calculation aspects in a game. I have a calculator that I'm loading as an swf into my project, and I have a small app that is coded in the exercise that the user can enter numbers. Here's the thing, when I punch in numbers into my coded app, the numbers appear on the calculator (in the display). So I figure that when I hit a keyboard key, it goes to both aspects. I wish it'd only do the one present on the screen. So I have a few ways of thinking. Go into the code of the seperate calculator app and display keyboard input. Or find a way to only apply keystrokes to whatever is on the screen.

Accessibility is driving me up the WALL! I have a system that has menu pop-ups and because of accessibility when the user selects OK it does what ever action the pop-up does and when the user presses ESC it leaves the menu. My issue is this all works fine when testing it in the swf file and selecting the 'disable keyboard shortcuts' BUT when I embedded it into HTML is loses this function and the short cuts stop working and at points activate html stuff. Is there a line of code or something that I can place in the .swf or .html that will disable the keyboard shortcuts?

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.

View 2 RepliesDoes 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:
