I want a movieclip with a size of 640x2000 pixel. But only 640x480 pixel should be seen on the screen. I want to scroll up or down with the cursor keys through the movieclip ...
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a fairly simple interface where the user can theoretically move up and down four vertical menu buttons with the cursor keys, selecting the option they prefer with the enter key. Obviously this requires focusing on a different button every time they move up or down, but I'm damned if I can figure out how to do this
View 1 RepliesI have created a simple menu with 4 buttons[code]...
What I need to do is control this menu with the cursor keys. For example, right key selects the button on the right, down key selects button below... etc. Once selected, the enter key will invoke that button.
Anyone have any code or a possible tutorial for using the directional keys for scrolling. In particular I want to use shift + left or right keys for scrolling an image.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to stop the browser from scrolling when using the arrow keys within flash. It makes it impossible to play the game if the browser is always scrolling up and down when your using the arrow keys to play the game. Ive searched around but google seems to think I want a scrollbar in flash.
View 5 RepliesIs this a script out there that will prevent the user from scrolling the page (page up & down) when they press the UP and DOWN arrow keys?
I have created a car game, but the only problem is the page scrolls when the player presses the arrow keys!
I've never had this problem before, usually once you activate the Flash movie then page scrolling is disabled.
When I use my arrow keys to control the car, the page in the browser scrolls up/down.
The problem with this is when you press it a few times, the page scrolls enough where you can only see half of the Flash movie or something and it ruins the game experience.
Note: When I press the UP arrow key, the car moves forward AND the page scrolls. So it's not a matter of focusing on the Flash movie.
i'm making a small "add news" movie for a site in actionscript. When I insert an image in my textField, I can only move the cursor with my keys and not with my mouse anymore. I put the image always in front. I also have to click one time in my textfield, otherwise my text appears under my image. When I click it aligns to the right.

I found this site, where you can scroll through images with the cursor and they fade between each other. I'm sure I saw a tutorial or source code for something similar a while back, but I can't find it. Here is the link: [URL]
View 4 RepliesIs it possible to disable mousewheel scrolling on my webpage while the cursor is over my flex application?
My flex application is a map that allows user to zoom in and out using the mousewheel; however, when I put my flex app onto my webpage, the scrollwheel causes the page to scroll instead of zooming in and out.[code]...
I'm using this code to loop a background image over and over so it looks like an infinite rolling background.
Okay now I've decided I want to control the actual movement (left or right) just by my cursor. Some intertia would be good too.
Here's my code for the looping background

onClipEvent (load) {
dummy_mc.duplicateMovieClip("dummy_mc2", 100);
dummy_mc2._x = dummy_mc._x+dummy_mc._width;

Basically I have a scrolling bar with thumbs of images that you can click and view. The bar scrolls depending on where the mouse is located along the X plane. Basically, the greater the value of X, the faster the bar scrolls to a certain extent. I am trying to figure out a way that if the Y value of the mouse cursor reaches a certain point, the scrolling stops. Like if the mouse is scrolling off the bar of images itself, the scrolling stops. As it stands the scrolling is only controlled based on where the mouse is located along the X plane and it has nothing to do with the Y value. I would like to be able to stop the bar with a certain Y value. Make sense? I Hope So :P

whether using a String as the key in a Dictionary results in slower lookups than using an Object, Class or Custom Object (an instance of developer defined Type)?
When using a String as a key, does the literal String have to be parsed, or does the Dictionary key point to the String Object?
How do I get the AWSD keys to work as smoothly as the arrow keys. I can put the arrow keys inside an enterFrame

//move the tank
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {

If I put the AWD keys inside an enterFrame they run until I push another button
I've got a movie clip instanced as "ground", with stop(); in the first frame, and I want it to play if either the S or W keys are down, but stop when neither are down.
I've got:
PHP Code:
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myListener.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getAscii() == 87 || Key.getAscii()== 83) {
_root.ground.play();
}else{
_root.ground.stop();
}}
In on the root frame. Though, obviously this doesn't work.
I can't seem to find any examples where You can scroll a movieclip (not text) with arrow keys

I have a horizontal scrolling movieclip that scrolls when the mouse is left or right of a certain point of that movieclip. However, it only moves slightly then stops when the cursor goes over it, it doesnt actually scroll normally...

To move the MC, using arrow keys I used the following and it worked:
var timer:Timer;
var direct:String;
initStage();
[Code].....
I tried to convert this to use my onstage buttons: up_btn, down_btn, left_btn, right_btn to move MC box but couldn't figure it out.
I have my movieclip follow my cursor but it appears in the top left cornor of the screen when I click the button and never alligns with the cursor.
Code:
public function gomust (e:MouseEvent):void
{
var mustMC:mustmc = new mustmc;

I'm looking to force the cursor to slow down/stop moving when it gets close to a MovieClip. Idealy you would be able to rollover the MovieClip when moving the cursor slowly but if the cursor is moving at some speed, it would be forced to stop at the edge of the MovieClip.

there is no error generate in my code when tested but the movieclip that i;m going to parent stuck on the left side and refuses to follow my cursor? why is that happening? It would normally work if i just use it without thanks click event.....

I have a movieclip that is a 3d building i also have a custom cursor that just follows the mouse. What I would like todo is have the custom cursor stop when it hits the outline of the build... the thing is that the building is 3d heres pics to explain. How would I do this

I am trying to make it so when you click anwhere on the stage the movieclip cursor is removed.

I'm working on a Flash project in which the user can choose to draw on the stage. To indicate to the user that it's possible to draw, I'm changing the default cursor to a pen image. I'm doing this by attaching a movieclip to the cursor, then hiding the cursor:
ActionScript Code:
on (press) {
penOn = true;
[Code].....
All this works great, with one problem. The line users draw appears on top of the custom cursor, so if they go back over something they've already drawn, they can't see the cursor anymore. I've tried a bunch of fixes, but nothing has worked. FYI, that first block of code I pasted is attached to the button that turns the pen on, while the second block of code is in the bottommost layer of the movie.
I have movieclips as buttons, so I dont get the hand when hovering over the mc's.
View 1 RepliesI have a custom cursor movieClip that changes depending on which side of the screen its on in my Flash application. This works fine, and even when the Flash test window is resized. However when going to fullscreen mode, it stops working. This code is called every frame, so shouldnt the stageWidth/stageHeight adjust accordingly when going to fullScreen mode?
