ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Events (movie Clip Moves Via Keyboard Control) And Scenes
Nov 7, 2009
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.

I have two MovieClips, and both are controlled by keyboard events. One is a globe that I want to rotate in one direction or the other. The second is a walking animation that should change direction or stand still depending on which key is pressed or if none are.
Here is the AS Code:
/*var rightDown:Boolean = false;
var leftDown:Boolean = false;
var upDown:Boolean = false;
var downDown:Boolean = false;*/
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownHandler);
[Code] .....
You can see that I've tried a few different methods, but neither has worked correctly. Using the timer came close, but then the globe kept speeding up, and I couldn't get the walking animation to default back to the standing animation. Here is the .fla [URL].

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 have some keyboard events that work fine when I "test move" however when I debug the movie the keyboard events don't seem to fire.

click once on the screen with your mouse and then you can control the man with arrow keys on your keyboard.i can't figure out why the man turns back to the right if he is facing left if you press the up or down arrow. this is one of my first scripts,it's not set up right here is the code:
Code:
function rightKey(yourEvent:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (yourEvent.keyCode==Keyboard.RIGHT) {

I do not know how to insert an animation stops to give the presenter time and forward or backward in a linear and PowerPoint by pressing any key. Similar to typical PPT slideshows and will insert a small clip light and animation films. "My idea is that every time they click on any key (no button) on the film, forward motion up to a certain frame and so on until the end of the presentation "

Below is the working code I have for navigating a presentation composed of multiple scenes.It works by starting a listener that waits for key presses and then jumps to the scene where the letter that was pressed is present in the first frame of the scene.Example: Press the letter C and the presentation jumps to the scene where there is a frame marker with the uppercase letter C present.
ActionScript Code:
// Begin Keyboard Navigation
// This script goes to the frame/scene-frame labeled in a single uppercase letter.

I'm making a top-down shooter game.I have keyboard input that moves the ship around and fires a laser. everything works perfect except that when the ship moves diagonal up left, or diagonal down right, the laser can't fire at the same time. It will work in any other direction, including the other diagonals.here is my code:
[AS]
function captureKeys() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && ship.x < 355 ) {
ship.x+=ship.right[code].....

I'm trying to write a simple counter. UP or Space increments a number and DOWN decrements. It's just one big number in the middle of the screen. A bell rings on an increment and I have added code to go full screen on mouse click.[code]...

I'm trying to write a simple counter. UP or Space increments a number and DOWN decrements. It's just one big number in the middle of the screen. A bell rings on an increment and I have added code to go full screen on mouse click.
Test mode works fine ( except for full screen of course).
Seems to work fine on the local machine using Safari 3.2.3
However if I try to run it locally using firefox it does not work.I need it to run on a laptop but it does not always acknowledge the keyboard events and while in full screen it never responds to the keyboard events.Laptop is running Safari 3.2.1

I was looking at this game called "Tsunami Fighter" (if you google it, it'll be the first thing that pops up�I can't post links sadly) which is a keyboard mashing game. Basically you have to mash a certain keyboard button as fast as possible to stop the rage bar from reaching the top. I tried some things that I thought would work,
How would I script the keyboard mashing part of this game (The part where you have to keep a greater keyboardclicks/second than the rising bar You'll know what im talking about if you play the game. I'm not really concerned at the score or the graphics just the keyboard event thing.

I created an E-learning project for a customer that has pages that require the user to make keyboard entries. When the user enters a specific letter, the page progresses. The pages work as expected until the customer places the project in a 'wrapper' that controls the navigation. When this is done, the user can make the keyboard entries, but now the page will not progress to the next section. It seems that the wrapper is stopping the system from detecting that the specific letter is pressed.

why the swf does not catch any keyboard events? When i Ctrl+Enter my .fla there is a message appearing that says: "Your content will not stream. Runtime Shared Library (RSL) preloading will require all of your content to download before the first frame will play. To prevent this you can change the Runtime Shared Library Library Settings in the Advanced ActionScript 3.0 Settings dialog which can be raised from the Public Settings dialog. The Runtime Shared Libraries being preloaded are: textLayout_1.0..........."

I am adding a key listener to my AIR application like so:
<mx:WindowedApplication
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
keyDown="onKeyDown(event)">
Yet only sometimes when I press keys does it actually invoke. I have no clue why, I thought maybe something else has focus. Well I cannot add key listeners to NativeWindow or NativeApplication, and I would assume if it is on the WindowedApplication which is the root element, that as long as my application has focus the key presses should invoke the listener.

I have a key.addlistener setup to listen to key events.What I want to be able to do is to dispatch key events by for example a mouse click or just on load. I've tried a lot of possible solutions such as dispatchEvent with type as "onKeyDown" and "keyDown" etc.... but key listener simply do not treat it as a keyboard event.
Code: Select allvar eventObj = new Object();
eventObj.type = "keyDown";
eventObj.code = 13;
eventObj.ascii = 'e';
dispatchEvent(eventObj);

Is there way to navigate to various buttons on a stage using only the keyboard? I have several movies (complete with cover art) on my Flash stage. I want to convert them into buttons so that anytime a user navigates to that button and presses enter, it will take them to a new frame (where I will have information about that particular movie). I know how to do this with Mouse clicks. But, this application requires users to use arrow keys in order to navigate and not the mouse.

I want my animation to STOP when I press SPACE, and then PLAY when I press SHIFT. This needs to be in AS3. The only catch is that my whole animation is composed of 5 Scenes. Would this be a problem? Also, I'm confused as to where I should add the code. I have it in a class and it still doesnt work. I tried putting it on the 1st frame on Scene 1.
