I have googled it a million times and cant seem to find what im looking for.
View 6 RepliesThis time I'm experimenting with visibility. All the tutorials online vary a lot. I'm trying to find something noob proof. I have actionscript 2 and 3. I'm not sure which one to use..I'm just trying to learn how to make a frame become visible and Play when I click on a movieclip.
View 5 RepliesI'm looking to have a movie clip pop up, play itself after a user clicks on a flash navigation button.

message_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goMessage1);
function goMessage1(evt:MouseEvent):void{ ???(play message movie clip here)???;}
I have a movieclip (a), inside another movieclip (b), on the main timeline. I want to click on movieclip (a) and make it go to and play a keyframe on the main timeline. I'm used to using buttons for actions, not movie clips, and I forget how to use the _root thingy.
View 3 RepliesI just spent three hours on trying to understand basic positioning of TextFields and SimpleButtons...
I have a movieclip with a dynamic TextField and a SimpleButton inside. The TextField is NOT inside the SimpleButton (because then I can't change the text dynamically).
I want the TextField centered in the SimpleButton but when I set the Textfield.x it is displayed somewhere completely different than when I set the SimpleButton.x to the same value. Regardless of if I do i programmatically or not.
We got a call today from a customer saying she was unable to input colon ":" in a textfield, instead it would turn into a ">". My first thought, since she's on a PC, was that she probably had switched her keyboard layout from swedish to english which would indeed make the colon turn into a "greater than". But after some investigation this happened on every pc I tested this on, and outside flash the inputs were correct. I am able to copy-paste a colon into the textfield.I also tried this on a pc with Windows 7 with a strange outcome. The first input became a ">", but after that the colons appeared correctly. After reloading the flash it worked from the first input.
View 3 RepliesI've created several textFields, writing:
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField("texto"+i,i+1,100,100,100,100);
};
That's O.K. But I can't put a text in them... when I write
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
["texto"+i].text = 15;
};
It simply doesn't work!
For some reason I am no longer able to select any of the movie clips I have in my 1-Frame game. I've tried all the different mouse tools, and none have worked. Flash seems to think that they have all become part of the background. The biggest problem is not being able to put more symbols in the game
View 2 RepliesI made a textfield, and applied a textformat to it, but whenever i try to change its text to something else outside of "addChild(myText)" it just removes the text completely.
View 5 RepliesI have a site that plays either .mp3 or .flv files depending on what is selected from the menu. Menu loads in from xml. I get "unable to make connection with server or unable to find flv on server" when I try to play the video. But the video and audio files are all in the same directory and the mp3 files play fine. I think I'm having a problem with the setMedia command. Here's the code that loads the video and audio files.

I'm trying to use the double click event, but its not working. I found one thread on Kirupa where Krilnon said you have to use doubleClickEnabled = true When I use it like this:
[AS]
_play.doubleClickEnabled = true;
_play.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK , function(e:Event):void {
trace('huh?');
vs.play(flv);

Double clicking just doesn't do anything and the event doesn't seem to register (trace doesn't happen)....
When using the class listed below, I am unable to add a CLICK function that will not break the piece. I want to add another tween on CLICK that clears all mcs off of the stage except the e.target, which will have a zoom applied to it...

I have some problems using dynamic textfields, spent hours to get it fixed but nothing works. Here's the problem. I've created dynamic textfields where visitors can enter their data, like name, address, comment and so on. My website appears on fullscreen when the web address' typed in. When it's in this fullscreenmode, I'm not able to type in any data in this textfield. When I leave the fullscreenmode I am able to type in my data. Also I've created a dynamic textfield, which loads this sent data from an external database. Now I want to add a scrollbar to this textfield, so all the messages that doesn't fit in the field will be visible. I've tried to create my own, without success, even the simple one in the componentspanel doesn't work.

I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

I am new to flash and creating a file with a series of 25 images. I have each image on its own keyframe in the stage1 and I have buttons for: play_btn, stop_btn, next_btn, prev_btn My next and prev buttons work ie...

but I am unable to get any AS3 code to work as a Mouse.Click to play the series of keyframes. Every time I try to add a gotoAndPlay to the play_btn my file just starts a continuous loop.
I have a simple TLF text box on stage. i want to be able to click some words in the text and based on the selection clicked got to some other place on a timeline or set a variable (not a link to an external web page).
sounds like it shout be simple but i cannot seem to find any information about it.
i seem to remember having done something similar years ago in as1 or as2.
In my first AS3 project (not used Flash since AS1) I need to use a custom movie clip as a cursor and detect clicking on a button. Using the code below, the custom cursor works as expected, but I am unable to capture clicking on the button.
If I comment out the first line, the trace for clicking works as expected. I have tried changing the order of the event listeners, applying the follow to the button rather than the stage, but cannot get both to work together.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,follow);
start_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, playPhrase);
function playPhrase(event:MouseEvent) {

I am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.

View 1 RepliesI was working on a keyboard project and I started wondering if there was a way to click a certain location within entered text in a TextField and have that be the new location where any backspaces or text entering will go from. Like in text documents. Anyone know how this can be gone about if it is possible? It's not a requirement but it's an interest of mine and searches didn't bring up any results.
View 6 RepliesI am populating a textfield programmatically and scrolling to the maxScrollH as the new text is added so the user can see the progression of text. This works fine, until I click the TextField, which sets scrollH back to 0 and places the caret in the text at the equivalent position.
textField.setSelection( text.length, text.length );
//sets the caretIndex/selection to the end
textField.scrollH = textField.maxScrollH;
//scrolls to max
This is the code that I am using to scroll when the textField text property is updated. I've tried adding a listener to the click event on the textField, which works in a way, but causes a visible jump.
override protected function createChildren() : void {
super.createChildren();
textField.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleTextFieldClick, false, 0, true);
} protected function handleTextFieldClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
textField.scrollH = currentTextFieldScrollPosition; //stored scrollH value
trace(textField.scrollH);
}
My guess is that there is a scroll position being calculated or stored someplace that I can't find.
I want to add a simple piece of text to the stage and add a listener to do something when the user clicks it.
Here's my TextLink class:
package some.package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;

I want to add text field in a movieclip and when i double click on text field at that time only it should allow to edit. Again when i click for example an image then the textfield shouldn't be edited.
