ActionScript 3.0 :: Textfield Focus With Flashing Bar
Jan 9, 2008I'm trying to make Flash automatically focus on an input textfield (not the TextInput component object, but a textfield object with type set to input) when the user enters the page. I want it so they can type straight away without actually having to click inside the textfield. Previously in AS 2.0 you could use Selection.setFocus("textfield_txt"); but in AS3 is it possible?

Jun 24, 2010I'm trying to load a swf file into my main swf. Everything looks fine when I test it with ctrl-enter, but when I open my main swf in a browser it just shows 5 flashing dots where the loaded swf should be.

Feb 2, 2010In as2, I have a button that attaches a movieclip with inside some input text fields (a mail form). Now, as the tweening ends for the movieclip to actually appear (I set the _alpha to 0 as he's been created and change the value to 100 with a tween), I call a function for setting the focus on the first input text field:
Code:
function setTheFocus(){
Selection.setFocus(_root.mailtext.namex);
trace(Selection.getFocus())
}
Where 'namex' is the istance name of the input text field. The getFocus trace returns positive, so the focus is there but ... there is no flashing bar within the field. If I write something, the text appears in the right text field and the flashing bar appears. I can't get why there is no flashing bar without typing anything, even if the focus is set.

View 7 RepliesProfessional :: Button Won't Stop Flashing In SWF Preview?
Jun 26, 2009I'm in the process of switching from AS 2.0 to AS 3.0, so apologies if this is really obvious.. I am modifying/updating an old template for a client and am inserting customized navigation buttons. One is a play/pause button and I was able to swap the old buttons for the new in the library and show them on the stage with no problems. When I export to swf to preview the movie, the new button just flashes repeatedly between the different "play" and "pause" states (up, over, etc).
I checked to make sure I didn't change any names of the buttons or movie clips. I tried inserting stop(); but it doesn't work...probably because I'm not putting it in the right spot. When I select the button, it has "up, over, down, hit" in the Timeline and says the selection can't have any actions applied to it.
Professional :: Flashing Graphic In Drag And Drop SWF?
Jul 26, 2010I've built a drag and drop project with 9 elements in Flash CS5 using AS 3.0. Using code from an AS3.0 4 element drg&drp tutorial (which worked) I copy/pasted the code into the new project, renamed graphics in AS where necessary and added the additional code required to accomodate the additional graphics.When playing the test I get no errors however the first logo (element) and it's invisable target just flash on and off 11 times, then I see a frame of the whole project (for 1 frame) and then the cycle repeats.
I've double checked all naming conventions and everything is correct between movie clips and code. I've even simplified the code to just 1 element to see if I could track down where the problem starts and I get the same thing. The strange thing (to me anyway) is if I change the name of element to be dragged/dropped (in the code) to a different element on the stage I still get same original graphic flashing. So I don't think it's the code at all I think there is some weirdness in the graphic setup.

Jan 10, 2010I got this pretty much working, but there is a bug, when the bird is going right the trace statement says right but I get the movieclip flashing between flipping right and flipping left.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flashing Between Externally Loaded SWFs
Apr 11, 2005I have the buttons at the bottom of my site load each "section" of the site from external swf files in the same directory as the main movie. When you switch back and forth between the sections there is a flash (like its loading the swf file every time you press a button maybe?). I have each section loading into the same container. I tried multiple containers but I couldn't figure out how to stop one from loading over the other, then you couldn't see the previous swf anymore (once a new one loaded it was on top of the others). Basically something to do with loadMovie and containers I guess. Here is the work in progress. The buttons load the external movies on release into a container.
>>> Flashing External SWFs <<<
What I want is a nice transition that you don't notice. With that flash you can basically tell its loading a new clip in. I want it to be seemless to the viewer.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Background Flashing Between Image Fade In
Dec 9, 2009I have a script that fades in a random image from an array, and then loads the same image in another MC in the layer below so the transition from one image to the next does not show a white background.
The problem is that while it works perfectly as a standalone .SWF and also in Firefox, I'm getting a white flash between images in IE, and it's erratic in Opera also. Anyone know a reason for this?
This is the main code, and I've also attached the .FLA. You will need 5 image files in a subdirectory called "images" to run it. I'm sure the code could be simpler, but right now I'm just concerned about why it won't run the same across different browsers.

Flash Movie Flashing A Previous Frame On Roll-over
Feb 28, 2010I have a flash movie with 11 frames and 5 layers. Each of the frames has AS attached to it and all of them start with:
stop();
Now the frame labeled "play" has a button on it, that onRelease sends the movie to the next frame with: gotoAndStop("spin");
That frame further more send it to one of the other frames at random with another gotoAndStop(), which have a stop() and a sendAndLoad on them.
However once it's reached this point, if you roll your mouse over the movie, it flickers and shows flashes of the "play" frame (the one with the button on it).
I can't figure it out, none of the movie clips or buttons in the movie have any actionscript attached to them.
I've tried to delete four of the layers and only keeping the one with the action script on it (and keyframes on every frame). But still it does it.
Professional :: Police Car Drives Along With Flashing Lights In A Scene ?
Mar 17, 2011What is correct way of creating a police car with flashing blue lights drive along in a scene?My plan was to create a new file, add car and png of just the lights to the library.layer 1 rename as car and dragdrop car graphic to stage, add keyframe at fr48 for 24fps scene, 2secs duration insert a layer call it lights and drag drop to stage, make duration 24frames, lights flash at 1 sec intervals when movie played.Should I select both layers and go modify>convert to symbol>movieclip then copy paste that from library to the library of the scene with the road ?(it doesnt flash !)How is this done ?
I also presume the fps of the movie clip if taken to another file should be the same as that file, one cannot have movie clips of different fps in one file, am I right ?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Dynamic Images Without Flashing On Mouse Over?
Oct 26, 2009I am using a loader (Loader.loadBytes()) to load multiple jpeg images (motion jpeg)continually whenever a new jpeg image is ready. However, when the mouse is moving over the loader, it seems to repaint everything including the background and causes the flashing. Is there a way to prevent this from happening without using the double-buffer concept? Is there way to stop repainting the background?
Is the problem caused by the images loading or mouse over? When the mouse is not moving over the loader, everything looks fine. However, when only a image is loaded by the loader, I think the display won't be flashing even though you move the mouse over it.

Jun 30, 2009I want to initialize a Flash asset to have a flashing cursor in an empty input field. I tried each of the following two ways with no luck:
1. Selection.setFocus("input_txt");
2. Selection.setFocus(input_txt);
I tried these alone in an empty fla with only the input textfield input_txt on the stage.
The other threads on this exact problem are several years old. Has something changed in for CS3 that it doesn't work.
If I put text in the field, it will be highlighted but that is not what I need. Just a flashing cursor.
