ActionScript 3.0 :: Perform An Action When A Button Is Clicked Without A Function?

Feb 27, 2010

Is there a way to add an EventListener to a button and make it execute some action when it is clicked without calling a function?

In other words if I have three different buttons and I want to make an action depending on what button was clicked, something like.

If button 1 is clicked do this, if button 2 is clicked do this, if button 3 do this.

I know a different action can be taken using an eventListener and a function assigned to each button but I'm trying to understand more about AS3.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Check If Function Being Used To Perform Action?

Oct 13, 2011

I want to perform an action if a function is being used. If that function is being used then I will use another function, something like:
if(a.add){
a.mult;
}
That's what I want to do, but I don't know how to. The other thing is that when I use if , else if, with a text input as a parameter, I can't view the action of the if statement in a dynamic text field, even though I did write m.text=b, where b=a.suma.

Jan 12, 2012

I have a simple accessor in my class:

The API I'm now working with checks login status in an asynchronous fashion:

ActionScript 2.0 :: MX04 : Make A Dual Key Press Perform A Single Action?

Feb 1, 2010

im trying to make a game that requires you to have the spacebar and the right arrow key pressed to make the character move. However i just cant seem to link the 2 key presses together. when the keys are pressed individually it works and when theyre pressed together it works but i want the character to be inactive until both are down at the same time :/

i've tried everything that i can think of (which is kinda limited) i thought id cracked it with a 'while' statement but when i tested it flash would throw a fit and close heres the code that flash doesnt like, it looks (to me) like it should work but it clearly doesnt :P

PHP Code:

onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;
}

When a user decides to sign off they can click the sign off button and everything is peachy. However, a less responsible user may choose to sign off by simply killing the browser window. Is there any way to implicitly call an actionscript routine on this event?

Count Frames - Perform Action Every 12 Frames

Mar 26, 2009

I have a function that counts days and some other variables and displays the values via dynamic text.

[Code]...

I have to place the incrementCount(): function every 12 frames so that it increments the values. Seems like it would be easier to simply modify the script to count "every 12 frames" but I can't find anything that tells me how to "count frames" in flash. Seems to be this is probably basic but I've searched unsuccessfully....so how do you do this. How do I get my script to work so it's frame based so I don't have to put incrementCount() every 12 frames?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Perform Function Automatically?

Apr 12, 2011

The file consists of 3 buttons and 3 input fields. Clicking either of the first 2 buttons will place a specific number in one of the 2 corresponding input fields. The third button adds the previous 2 values and displays the result in the 3rd input field. The fields themselves are uneditable and only for displaying the numbers. My question is what is the correct listener/function to have the "total" function perform automatically when either of the first 2 text fields change in value.[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Incorporate A Stop Action, After A GotoandPlay Action On My Button?

May 8, 2009

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.

on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}

There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.

on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}

Everything I have attempted is not working.
