ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Mouse Events Only Work On Initial Load, Not After Navigation?
May 18, 2011
having an issue with some mouse events I have. If you go here you can see what I mean.When you mouse over one of the thumbnail images, a title pops up. If you click one of the thumbnails, the group shifts to the right. (This is making room for what I'm working on right now, it's not just random ) If you then navigate to "About" or "Contact" then back to "Works" neither the mouseovers nor the clicking on the thumbnails works.That middle section is one object called "images" with three frames, each labeled and then navigated to inside the buttons with gotoAndStop(frame#).Here is my code for the buttons and mouseovers:
Code:
//Navigation links
var navTween:Tween
[code].....

I have some code that gets fired on these mouse events:
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, function(e:MouseEvent) { ...
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, function(e:MouseEvent) { ...
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, function(e:MouseEvent) { ...
They all work in all browsers, except for Chrome, where MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT trigger the events, but MOUSE_UP does not trigger the event. I also tried CLICK, same story.I would suspect that there is some sort of interfering layer or offset in the Chrome rendering, but then wouldn't the other mouse events not register as well?

I am trying to capture mouse events in flash while the mouse is being held down. The intention is to keep reciving events as long as the mouse is pressed, even if the cursor leaves the flash element. That's the behavior I get on all browsers other than IE, which only fires events while the cursor is inside the stage.
I'm pretty sure I've seen such "well behaved" flash applets work in IE before.

I have a custom UIComponent that is basically just this:
public class WhiteboardUIComponent extends UIComponent
{
public function WhiteboardUIComponent() {
super();
[Code]....
This is absolutely the simplest that I could make the example. The s:View is gobbling up my mouse events - if I add a handler in the MXML to the View, I get mouse events just fine. When adding a handler programmatically in my subclass' constructor, I get nothing. I thought maybe the layout was wrong, so I explicitly set the dimensions of my UIComponent and stuck it in a border just to be sure it was where it was supposed to be - same deal.

I have an external .swf that I'm loading into a main one. The external one has actionscripting which reacts to the mouse. When exported on it's own, the scripting works fine but when loaded into the main one, nothing works. There are no references to the _root in the external swf either.

I need some help? Anyone experience this problem before with IE8 FLASH bug? Can not get this to work on all subsequent refresh to the flash. I have a flash piece which simply renders only on the first initial load. After that, if i refresh or visit the page, it does not load correctly. It seems I am having this problem with the swf only on subsequent loading of the page or whenever a refresh happens.

I have two movieclips on the stage mc1 and mc2,the navigation for mc2 and mc1 is in mc1 as as3 and MovieClips suddenly now that I've added some tabs into mc2 (new layer, no instance names yet) the navigation code in mc1 has stopped working,if I change the initial stop command to a later frame in mc1 I can navigate back to the first frame and then to one other place in the menu but after moving away from the first frame I can't seem to get any of the buttons to work, its only if the stop command is on a later page that those buttons will workon the main timeline i'm using;
ActionScript Code:
stop();
mc1.stop();

I'm a complete newbie to AS3 but I've recently been thrown in at the deep end I'm trying to teach myself (I'm a designer mainly, for my sins!).
I'm putting together a UI which includes a demo frame whereby I want to load a speech bubble image if the user hovers the mouse over a particular button.
I've bought various reference books and browsed through the forums, but I can't find any examples of how to do this (seemingly) simple task. I've found some examples of drawing a rectangle and other methods, but nothing for loading/unloading images.[code]...

Are there suggestions for code that will essentially listen for (or test) for mouse clicks on 3 separate buttons. Once all the correct 3 buttons have been released, I want a to trigger a final event(load a 4th movie clip). I can't stop thinking in terms of IF (all event 1 + event 2 + event 3) THEN load movie. But I know that isn't AS3 way to do it, any better understand way to do it with event listeners (but not too complicated!)

Right now all the sounds (78 of them) on my guitar play using the roll_over event but that doesn't give the user much control over what sound is played.
The actionscript im using to play my sounds is this;
for(var i:uint = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++){
buttonArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, buttonRolledOver);
}
[Code]....
What i want to do is only play a sound with the roll_over event when the left click is held down.

Just wanted to ask if there is any advantage for either using mouse click event or touch tap events, when writing apps for mobiles or tablets (for the iphone especially)?
I know that both of them should work fine, but in term of performance, is anyone better? Are there any things I should be aware of when choosing either?
By the way am using actionscript3 to implement the app.

I have an animation that I want to start when clicking on the flash window. However, I've also have some buttons on the stage. If I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK on the stage, then it 'eats up' the events and the buttons don't work.
I've tried some tricks, by adding some invisible buttons on top of the real ones, and use the MOUSE_OVER event to selectively enable/disable the mouseEnabled flag for the stage, but didn't work because it complains that the property or method doesn't exist (which I find odd).

How do I make a button created in CS4 flash open another page in my website?
I created the button in flash cs4 with a static state and a pulsing state on "Over" and "down" that works fine. I tried adding the following action to the button>
on (press) {getURL("aboutus.html?include=contact","_self");}
but nothing happens when I view it in live view. and all the pages exsist in the file. (Using Dreamweaver CS4 to build webpages.)

...How do you do this? I'm gunning for <65 kb and need to figure out if my published swf will meet this goal. Is there a window or something (maybe a 3rd party tool) to let me know what the initial download size of my swf is?

I have a bunch of potential random strings for recvStream.play("randomstring");then i have a timer checking every 5 seconds on a function that runs an event listener:
recvStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,
netConnectionHandler);
then im thinking in a switch statement i can use it to check if it's an active stream or not to either have it search for another stream that should be active or stop the timer and let it play.
// i was thinking this would verify it's playing and then that's it
case "NetStream.Play.Start" :
trace("ITS PLAYING YOU SHOULD SEE SOMETHING");[code].....
//I also tried NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound instead of NetStream.Buffer.Empty didn't work either.But it really doesn't work like that. Is there something else I should be using instead of NetStream.Buffer.Empty ? Or something else all together? I'm using Actionscript 3 in Flash CS5 and I'm using Cirrus RTMFP

i have a question about the mouse down / mouse move events in Flash. I've developed a small intreractive that requires mouse co-ordinates to be captured when the mouse is down and when the mouse is moved anywhere on the screen. It was working fine like this until recently when I checked my interactive in Safari and it no longer recieves mouse co-ordinate information when the mouse cursor leaves the Flash interactive stage area.However, it still works fine in Firefox. Is there anything I can do to get this functionality back when using it in Safari?

I have a movie clip I am using as a button (instance name btn1) and I added an event listener to it (using the following line): btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, animate1); the function "animate1" triggers some small animation when the mouse is over the movieclip. my problem is that the animation is triggered both on mouse over and mouse out events.

It has been awhile since I have worked in flash.Right now I am working on something where I would like a panel to disappear when someone mouses off the stage.stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, leaveHandler); It usually works fine but if I move my mouse really fast it doesn't fire. I have also tried the same thing using a custom invisible button that surounds the perimeter of the stage and I have tried ROLL_OVER and MOUSE_OVERand again, if I do it too fast my event doesn't fire (I am using trace)I can't find anything on the net about this - is this typical of flash that if you move your mouse too fast you break it? Do I need to increase my frame rate (I would really rather not because I have perfectly timed animations - I am at 30 frames per second)

I have a menu drawer at the edge of the screen that shows when the user rolls the mouse over it, but if the user overshoots it an moves the cursor slightly outside the browser window this is unfortunenatly registered as a mouse out.
I want to stop this by using event.MOUSE_LEAVE, but i need to use it as a condition not to triger a "leaveHandler".

I have a web site with an intro movie playing in the page's header.
The SWF playing the FLV with sound is in a division that is placed at a lower Z level. On top of the SWF, at a higher Z level, is a png image of my header containing an oval transparent window. This image acts as a skin sitting on top of my movie. The movie and sound play inside the oval window fine. I have other reasons for this approach as opposed to integrating the whole header image into the SWF.
The issue is I have no mouse control over the SWF because it is at a lower Z level. The mouse events are blocked by the transparent image window that sits on top.
I want to add a sound volume control to my movie. The control can sit either inside the oval area, or outside somewhere else on the page.
I would prefer to control the volume using another SWF that sits at the normal Z level where the mouse can work. Can one SWF control another?
Other alternatives might be to use Javascript, or even HTML image tags to control my SWF.

I'm looking for a way to "inject" some events into a flash movie running on a browser. I know about ActionScript's ExternalInterface.addCallback function, however I'm trying to achieve this with any "random" flash from the web. Eg. send a "SPACE" keyboard event to a youtube video.

I'm making a Flash game (which is basically a version of the same game), and I've used a tileList for the board populated with movieClip pieces. I would like the pieces to respond to mouseOver, mouseOut, and mouseClick events. From looking at other question/answers, I get the idea I'll need a custom imageCell. Is that the way to go. I was hoping I could get the responses I want by putting the actions into the movieClips themselves as below, but that doesn't seem to work. (btw I'm new to the community but have wound up here several times from Google searches
