ActionScript 2.0 :: Swf File And Selecting The 'disable Keyboard Shortcuts'
Nov 7, 2007
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?

For years now I have had to restart Flash about once a week because my keyboard shortcuts just stop working. This has happened to me since about Flash 5!

I have a photo gallery that can be navigated via arrow keys and various keyboard shortcuts. However on the same SWF is also a contact form...now whenever you fill it in and use the 'F' key it tries to put the flash file into Full ScreenHow can I disable all shortcuts when in frame 30 of my SWF (the contact form) and then re-enable them when moving away from that frame.Using Flash CS5 with SlideshowPro. Have looked over the web but can't find very much on this issue at all (surprising?)

I'm trying to capture keyboard events with the following code. I'm testing in an external popup flash player in FlashDevelop and it ain't tracing anything. I reckon it might be something to do with keyboard shortcuts in the flash player.
But I can't find where to disable them?
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
[Code]....

My keyboard shortcuts have quit working. I'm not talking custom shortcuts that I have defined. The default Flash shortcuts just don't work anymore.Before anyone asks, yes, I have made sure the "Disable keyboard shortcuts" option is turned off. I'm running Flash CS4 on a Windows XP pro machine.

I would love to backup my Flash CS4 keyboard shortcuts, but I could not find the file anywhere on my harddrive. I searched for every *.WFX file (or at least that was the right file type for older versions of Flash). I even tried to make an advanced search for all files on my PC and sort them by date modified, right after I made some changes in Flashes keyboard shortcuts - hoping that I would find the file, but haven't.

I'm assuming the answer to my question is "no" but figure it's worth asking just in caseI'm mostly an AS3 coder, but I need to work on library assets quite often to set classnames on assets so they can be instantiated through code. This usually involves hunting through the Library for the asset I need, then giving it a new name, clicking the tiny little "info" icon at the bottom of the window to bring up the Properties panel for the library item, and assigning a class name etc.
My problem is bringing up the Properties panel is not as quick and simple as it should be. That "info" icon really is tiny, and right-clicking the item in the library and scrolling through it to get to the "Properties" item is fiddly and error prone.What I really want is a keyboard shortcut. There doesn't seem to be one, and I can't assign one in the otherwise excellent Keyboard Shortcuts... menu item since Library commands are not listed there. It is not even a menu item so I can't even trigger it with applescript.

I wirte my own jsfl commands and put them into "Commands/myScript" folder, and Flash-IDE can recognize/run them without any problem.But when I assigned key shortcut to my commands in "Commands/myScript" folder, and restart Flash-IDE, my shortcuts will NOT WORKING.To correct this problem, I have to open Keyboard Shortcuts Setting window, switch to my own commands, not doing any change and click OK, then my shortcuts work again now(I have to do these EVERY TIME after Flash-IDE started).

I have an mx:Menubar, which I need to be able to open/expand based on the key pressed. For e.g., if Shift + R is pressed, it needs to open the 'Request' topmenu. Then if Shift + N is pressed, it should load the 'New request' module in the module loader. I've already implemented the MenuBar/module-loading functionality with the mouse, but I haven't been able to implement the keyboard shortcuts. I found a nice sample at [URL].
However, the solution directly performs the action (e.g. Shift + N to load the 'New request' module). The menu does not open/expand when you press the shortcut as though you had hovered your mouse over it (e.g. Shift + R to open/expand the 'Request' topmenu and then Shift + N to load the 'New request' module).

I have a flex app with lots of custom components, like custom buttons, comboBoxes etc. I am trying to add keyBoard shortcuts to the flex app. In doing so, I added a key-down listener to the app to listen for ctrl+shift key combination like this:
this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, handleKeyDown);
Then I dispatch a custom event that all of my custom components are listening for:
private function reportKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
var evtObj:Object = new Object();
evtObj.keyEvent = event;
dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent(CustomEvent.SHORTCUT_KEYS_PRESSED, evtObj, true, false));
}
In my custom button component I have:
this.addEventListener(CustomEvent.SHORTCUT_KEYS_PRESSED, ShortCutKeysHandler, true);
So, if I go ctrl+shift+W then I want one instance of the custom button to get clicked. For some reason, the event never gets triggered and never gets to the ShortCutKeysHandler function.

I have a quite large Flex application with a large set of views and I ceratain views I'd like to add shortcuts. And i'm looking for something like:
<mx:Vbox>
<foo:Shortcut keys="ctrl+s" action="{bar();}"/>
</mx:VBox>
Is there any framwork or component already done that does something like this? I guess it should be too difficult to build? When building this I only want the shortcuts to be active when the view is visible. How do I detect this? What base class is best to inherit from when working with non visual components?

You can easily export Flash keyboard shortcuts in a HTML format but how on Earth do you import them? There simply is no visible way to do it in the keyboard shortcut panel? How do I go about doing this? (I'm using CS5.5)

CS3 -> CS4 transition newb here who's getting increasingly frustrated with the new motion tweens; however, for this project, I'm working in a 3D space and require using them, so I'm dealing with this bit by painful bit. I found the tip about Split Motion, but first question: how do you apply Split Motion across several layers at the same time? I have six different tweens, and in CS3, I used to be able to shift-click or click-drag across frames and apply a command to all of them (for example, hit F5 to add frames), but Split Motion is requiring me to right-click on each and every layer. This is really laborious, and I worrySimilarly, I tend to add custom keyboard shortcuts to each of my Flash versions for commands I use frequently and don't want to right-click a menu for (such as "add motion tween") - however, I can't seem to find where to create a custom shortcut for either that, or Split Motion.

I have a Flash movie which fills the whole browser window. This means that always the key events are catched ("stolen") by the Flash movie only, when using Firefox. IE7 seems to be working as I want.
I want for example ctrl+w (close window), ctrl+n (new window), ctrl+t (new tab) to work in Firefox while the focus is on my Flash movie. How to accomplish this?

I 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.

I 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.

There are 100 buttons in my movie clip and a timeline of 10 frames length. If user clicks on button1, the movie clip will play and at the last frame it will redirect to second scene (scene2) and then "on scene2's first frame" "externalscene1.swf" will be loaded. If user clicks on button 5 then on scene2's first frame "externalswf2.swf" will be loaded.
Here the normal code i wrote :
//SCENE1 - 1st frame :
st1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, a1001e);
function a1001e(eeevt:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(root).play(); << I want to assign a variable (the swf name to be loaded)
}
//SCENE2 - 1st frame:
stop();
var loader3:Loader = new Loader();
loader3.load(new URLRequest("1004.swf")); << I want to load variable.swf and load that swf.
addChild(loader3);

I embedded a SWF on a page and have checked it in Dreamweaver by selecting FILE | PREVIEW IN BROWSER. The page works just fine, video plays back and rollover button works perfect. I've then uploaded the SWF,FLV,html page and scripts to my server and when tested, the video wouldn't play. Below are some snapshots, the code and the html link to see if someone can give me a hand on this one.....
