ActionScript 3.0 :: Listening For Keyboard Events Without The Stage?
Apr 7, 2009I'm creating an AIR application that loads a child SWF. The child needs to read keyboard input (for a game), which I usually do by adding a keyboard event listener to the stage property, like this: stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, onKeyUp)
However, the child SWF is apparently not allowed to access the stage property because the parent SWF owns the stage, so I get a security sandbox violation. So I need to do one of two things:
Bypass the security restriction allowing AIR to load SWFs that have an absolute path (local path), and allow that child to access the stage, orGet keyboard events to be heard by some display object other than the stage, without ever calling "stage" (this includes stage.focus).A few things I have tried already: Security.allowDomain() does not work. AIR thows an error saying that allowDomain doesn't work in the AIR sandbox. Also, adding the keyboard listener to the child's document class (then clicking inside the SWF) doesn't work.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Listening For Events In Another Class?
Oct 16, 2011I have the Main class that imports my urlValidator class.My urlValidator class imports com.usual.swfaddress and thanks to the SWFAdressEvent fires the function dealing with the validation of the url.In some other class myMenu (child of the Main but on the other branch) I need to listen for the event of validation being completed.I'm importing myEvent (custom event) class to urlValidator and when the validation is complete I'm triggering the dispatchEvent.At the same time I'm importing the myEvent to myMenu class and trying to listen when the myEvent was dispatched (from urlValidator).

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

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listening Not Working While MovieClip On Stage
May 27, 2009I use an event listener to detect keyboard activity and it is working fine, but when I add a MovieClip to the stage, the event is no more triggered, I need to click on the stage to get it active.The MovieClip fills all the stage, and I tried to add the same event listener to it, but still I need to click on it to get the event listener active.
View 11 RepliesFlash :: Events Dispatching And Listening?
Sep 2, 2010I want to have a main logic class that listens for dispatched events from an assortment of other classes.
for instance: i have a parent Map class that contains X instances of a State class. When the user clicks on a State class, i want to dispatch an event CLICKED along with the name of the state.
now this Logic class will see this new event and process the name of the state and perform some other logic stuff. no matter what i try i can only get it to work where the State class listens for its own Dispatched event. Which to me seems a waste, i could have just manually called the function.
I have read so many tutorials online about custom events/ dispatching and they are being used in a basic one class example.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Parents Listening For Events
Jan 25, 2009what the most efficient method is for listening for events up and down a string of parents and children? Example:
(these are parents from left to right) Main Sprite -> Child A -> Child B -> Child C
Child C fires and Event - what's the best way to have Main Sprite listen for it?
1) Make Child B and C "public" so Main Sprite can attach a listener all the way down on C (_childA._childB._childC.addEventListener)
2) Child C's event triggers a Child B event that triggers a Child A event that Main Sprite listens for
ActionScript 3.0 :: SlidingPanelNavigation - Listening For Events
Sep 15, 2011Basically I've build a small class that can be imported anywhere in the program and one of it's public methods dispatch a listener, which as I understand can be received anywhere. Is that correct? In my project I've got a menu which slides in and out. It's movement can be triggered mainly bu the buttons on the menu, but I also want to be able to controll it's movement from various places in the program. So i.e. it can slide in or out when something completely unrelated has been clicked. So I've got a class "SlidingPanel" and one of its children is class "SlidingPanelNavigation". SlidingPanelNavigation uses the class that only dispatches the Event, which should be listened in class "SlidingPanel" and the problem is - it doesn't.
My main class that holds the whole menu together:
Code:
package com.zeeto.menu {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
public class SlidingPanel extends MovieClip {
private var navigation :SlidingPanelNavigation;
[Code] .....
Why the SlidingPanel.slideMenu() isn't fired?

Jan 23, 2011I am working on a simple project involving flex 4 and Mate framework. When I am including Mate event map in fx:declarations tag in mxml file, and when I fire up an event, Mate event handlers listen to events and act upon it.
The issue is this, in action script based project, when I instantiate the eventmap class(this is in mxml file only) and keep it in top and fireup an event, instantiated eventmap is not listening to event fired up from action script class.

Aug 29, 2009I have a menu movieclip and an externally loaded swf on my main stage. The menu mc needs to control the externally loaded swf. For example the swf plays and pauses, then when any of the menu buttons are clicked the swf needs to play thru and be removed. currently I am dispatching an event for each button clicked with a switch statement. In the main timeline I need to listen for each of theses events and based on what button is clicked proceed to the correct content frame. How can I listen for different events and run one function that based on which event is registered perform a task with a switch or if statement?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Listening Events Dispatching From Their Child Classes
May 5, 2011`i'have a problem with listening events dispatching from their child classes. for example i have contentManager object which is controlling content at the top level of stage. it has a imageGallery object and in the imageGallery objectthere ise a collectionLoader object which is loading images.
now i want to add one preloader to contentManager which always listen for ProgressEvent. when the progressEvent dispatched i want to preloader going to active. becouse there is another objects that are loading images or other kind of files. i think it is a good apporach to solve preloader issue. so my problem is, when collectionLoader object loading images with using queLoader. my QueueProgress event dispatches ProgressEvent evey time, but my preloader object stand at the 2 classes up level, doesn't percive this event.

View 1 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?

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.
AS3 :: Flash - Listening For Multiple Events On Multiple Objects?
Sep 20, 2010I currently have an over, out and click event for 8 different objects. The over and out events are identical for each (tween expands object and then shrinks it back for the out state).I have previously asked for an easy way to declare those events, and now I was looking for an easier way to handle them.
Here's my code:
//-----------GARAGE
function growGarage(e:MouseEvent):void{
scaleTweenX = new Tween(map_garage, "scaleX", Elastic.easeOut, 0.648, 1, 0.5, true);
[code]....
I've tried using a single function and then using "this" as the object of the tween but that expanded the entire stage.
Professional :: Keyboard Events Being Intercepted?
Apr 1, 2010I 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.

Mar 12, 2010I am adding a key listener to my AIR application like so:
<mx:WindowedApplication

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.
