View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Asynchronous Keyboard Controls - Stop Listening To An Event As Soon As Another Event Has Been Dispatched?
Nov 1, 2009i have a question to ask about asynchronous key controls This was what i did
[Code]...
and i checked with [URL]...?newspage=6249 and it looked more or less the same, so why is it that when i move my character and when i hold down a key, it just keeps on listerning to that keypress event listener, instead of just executing the other event. So say, i tap left and after which i tap right, it will work just fine, but if i hold left and tap right, the event listerner will still be listening to the left key. So, i was wondering could anyone point me in a direction as to how should i make my code stop listening to an event as soon as another event has been dispatched?

Feb 5, 2009I have a movieclip containg several containers with other objects attached to them. Those containers have different levels of nesting. Now I want to add an EventListener to the top-level MovieClip and the called function uses attributes of this MovieClip. Because
of that I cannot just retrieve the MovieClip by saying e.target.parent but have to stop the propagation. I know there is a stopPropagation() method but I don't really get how (and when) to use it.
If I have sth like this:

//Things happening
} myMC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myResponse);
Where do I have to stop the propagation?

Flex :: Can Overlapping Sibling Prevent Any Event?
Oct 11, 2009Below is the code for a simple Flex actionscript project. A sprite is partially covering a hyperlink. What's happening is that when you hover over the sprite, if you're also hovering over the hyperlink, the hyperlink is activated. I want to prevent that. I want the hyperlink to be activated only when the mouse hovers over it -- but not when the mouse hovers over the sprite which covers it.

View 1 RepliesFlash :: Prevent Touch Event From Firing From Under Another Sprite
Dec 6, 2011I'm trying to make a vieport in which you can pan by dragging the background image around. Here is what I've done: [URL] Note that I've hidden the mouse cursor and replaced it with 2 custom ones. The problem is, the event attached to the background, which is a touch event, fires even when the mouse is over a sprite/movieclip (the monkey or the stats) that's in front of that background. And the stats isn't even in the gameLayer (where the monkey and the bg and the mouse cursors are). Try to drag the stats around, and see that the background and everything else pans with it (this is unwanted). Also, I need to remove the custom cursor and show the regular cursor whenever the mouse is NOT on the background (i.e. when it's on the monkey or stats or any new sprites I may/will have in the future).

Flex :: Prevent Copy Event In TextArea With Scroll?
Feb 14, 2012I would like to disable copy event in the TextArea I'm using. To achieve so I added the following code block:
function initTA(){
var tf:IUITextField = body.mx_internal::getTextField();
tf.enabled = false;
}
<mx:TextArea id="body" creationComplete="initTA()" .../>
This is working fine unless the text area has lots of text inside in which case a scroll bar appears. After the scroll bar is being used by the user, the text area stopped blocking the copy event.
By the way, I am using text area for display purposes since I use rich text area format.

Flex :: Keyboard Event Handling?
Jul 31, 2009I'd like to arrange things so that I have a chain of keyboard event handlers in my flex application, all of whom are queried when key down events occur. Basically, when a visual component is on screen, it is a candidate for handling a key press event. Something like this (clearly this is pseudocode):
<application handles_keys="F5, F6">
<tabGroup>
<tab1 handles_keys="pgup, pgdn">
<control handles_keys="0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9" />
[code]...
I have a class written that will respond to the key events the way I want it to, so how do I register one or more instances of this class to have the results I want? Also, note that there are some situations where this class should receive events that would ordinarily be handled by a UI component. The TAB key is the main example; I have a few cases where I want my key down event handler to fire even when the focus is on a text field.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Fires Only Once On OSX?
Dec 29, 2010Tracing the keyCode for the 'a' key (65) only works once for KEY_DOWN events and sometimes KEY_UP behaves in the same way, making development a pain when trying to do things quickly.
