ActionScript 3.0 :: ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT Not Triggering When Clicked On Videoobject
Apr 14, 2008
I have a contextmenu setup for videocomponent. (go fullscreen for example). It's basically a videoObject wrapped in a Sprite. I have setup a contextmenu for this sprite. my problem is that the ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT event is not triggering when I click on the videoObject and select a custom menu item. (default items like settings DO work). When I click on a part of the sprite outside the videoObject, the event IS triggered.

I've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?

What does the code look like if I want the user to click two specific buttons then go to a new frame. I've been trying different methods, but I am honestly not brilliant with conditional statements. This is what I've got so far...
about_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickAbout);
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickMain);
if (function clickMain(event) && function clickAbout(event))
[code]....

A made a class to make thumbs from loaded images. I add a listener to every thumb to trigger a event in the main swf. Already found 'dispatchEvent' But I can't seen to find a way to see what thumb called the event.
I need this info to apply some tween's to the thumb triggering the event
Here you have the code from the class
Code:
package classlibrary{
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

why my dispatchEvent is not triggering. All I'm trying to accomplish is passing a variable from the document class to a sub class.

what i've done is made an application where when you click on a "Proceed" button i've placed on stage said button is removed using removeChild() and more input fields are made available.a new button named "nextbutton" is also created at the same time to run a function which, when clicked, will check the input for validity and then advance the movie to the next frame if it all checks out.assuming the data does check out then the last command of the function (of the newly created "nextbutton" button) is to gotoAndStop(2); to advance the movie to the next frame.
i'm using the mouse_down mouseevent listener on both buttons to run my functions ie:
proceedbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Mouse_Do wn, proceedbuttonCLICK);
nextbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Mouse_Down, nextbuttonCLICK);
the problem i'm having is that if i tab thru my input textfields to enter data (and who doesn't) i end up tabbing to my "Proceed" button and then hitting the enter key. but if i hit enter on the button istead of clicking it then none of my if/else statements written into the nextbuttonCLICK function execute. even worse somehow the gotoAndStop(2); command somehow DOES execute (at least i think it does) because the movie advances to the next frame in my timeline. so now i'm at the next frame but my variables have not even been calculated ....what i don't get is the gotoAndStop(2); statement is written into the function for the "nextbuttonCLICK" so how the heck can hitting enter on a highlighted "Proceed" button have the effect it does? is it something built into the button class itself? i did choose to make my buttons "buttons" and not movie clips so the user would see the little hand cursor when mousing over them.

I have an intersctive flash file I'm creating that has a skinned clip inserted. There are buttons in the file that direct to different frames in the timeline.
I want the the buttons to stop the clip when they are triggered. Creating event listeners with functions does not seem to work.
How can I stop the clip without pressing the stop buttob on the clip skin?

how to do this, but I was wondering if there is a way to do the following without setting up an event listener for each textfield...
I have a bunch of input textfields on the stage (50+).
I want flash to gotoAndStop at frame 5 whenever ANY of the text fields have something typed in them.
Possible to do without setting up 50 event listeners? Is it possible to just set up one event listener that is trigerred when any input field on the stage is changed?

I am trying to build a simple application. The first phase is selecting to upload a file from the user desktop or from the site's gallery.
The question is if the user chose to upload from the gallery, say, go to an PHP page gallery, choose a photo and then redirected to the Flash app. How would you trigger the Flash up to know there was an image chosen and it should load it?
Does PHP send a variable or create an XML based on a choice and pass it via Flash variable, or does it need JavaScript to tell Flash that if the Flash var is not empty run this function?

Given an .swf that has some clickable objects/regions. One of these controls is labeled with the word 'pants'. When I click on 'pants' I want an HTML FORM named 'pantsForm' to be submitted. By doing it this way I can send all my hidden variables and HTML objects on to the next page in the POST array.My thought is that I should be able to write a piece of javascript like this:
function pageAction (inVar) {
switch(inVar) {
case 'pants':
[code]....
And then from within the actionscript the following call:
ExternalInterface.call("pageAction", "pants"));
could _somehow_ be linked to the onClick action for the 'pants' object in the FLASH movie.

I have a 3 scene movie in Flash MX. Each scene basically loads then stops so user can view the scene and its contents, there is buttons to navigate to the other scenes, but what I want to know is if there is a way I can get it to play the end transition of the scene before it goes to the scene he has clicked to go to?
Something like play rest of the scene you are on then go to scene user clicked.

This code works fine in my IDE but when I test it in a browser, the Event.COMPLETE function appears to trigger twice. I put a throw error command in to make it show up in Flash debug Player and the error gets thrown twice. I've even done a string search through the code to see if I've added more than one listener but no luck.
ActionScript Code:
private function downloadCompleteHandler(event:Event):void {
_s.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, downloadCompleteHandler); // Clean up
_s.removeEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preloaderBar); // Clean up

My code is contained in a movie clip that plays an animation on roll over and reverses the animation on roll off. The reverse uses a timer that backs up a frame on the each time event. It works for the most part.
Problem: I tried to use watchTimer.stop(); to end the timer. But the eventListener that tracks timer events keeps triggering which I don't want.
Code:
var watchTimer:Timer = new Timer(30);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, foldUp);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, foldDown);[code]....

the code below is placed on one frame of the main timeline...it works, but apparently continually triggers the "gotoAndPlay" action over and over again. How can an ENTER_FRAME event be made to play a moive clip such as "staged_kiss_mc" only once?
The playhead on the main timeline rests in this single frame for a while; it would be great if "staged_kiss_mc" were to only play once, when the playhead first enters this frame, rather than apparently repeating continually...is there code to stop this repetition?
