View 11 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Routing Mouse Events Through A Sprite?
Jul 27, 2009In a pure ActionScript 3 project, I have a sprite that overlaps another sprite. The lower sprite normally handles mouse clicks. The lower sprite no longer processes mouse events when it is overlapped by the higher sprite. I would like the lower sprite to handle mouse events when it is overlapped. (In my particular instance, the higher sprite is just a decorative piece; it has no normal mouse interactivity anyway.) Is this possible? Is there a way to route mouse events through the higher sprite?
View 3 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Drawing - Cut A "hole" Inside A Rectangular Sprite To See The Sprite Underneath?
Feb 3, 2010Everytime I google this question I see confusing information about masks and blends, none of which seems to directly apply to what I think should be an easy thing... There are three Sprites involved here...the lowest layer sprite is pretty much a background. I want to overlay a translucent Sprite on top of the background and then I want the third, top-most Sprite to act as a hole, so that the area inside the third Sprite is completely transparent, so that the background sprite is completely visible. How would I go about doing this dynamically (i.e. dynamically drawing the masking sprite and hole using the Actionscript graphics calls)?
View 4 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Sibling Sprite Transparent To Mouse Events?
Jun 10, 2010Essentially, the simplified problem is this: I have a parent sprite "PARENT" with two children: One child sprite "A" that contains a number of children which respond to mouseover/mouseout and rollover/rollout events, and a second child sprite "B" that is shown/hidden based on the events in "A".
The problem is that "B" appears over "A" on the stage and when the mouse enters "B", the children in "A" throw mouseout/rollout events. Ideally, I would be able to make "B" completely mouse transparent so that the hit testing in AS3 will "see through it" to the underlying "A" sprite, but this doesn't seem possible.
Note that "B" has mouseEnabled and mouseChildren set to false... but the problem seems to be that the AS3 hit testing engine won't look at siblings when determining mouse hit testing. (i.e. It sees "B" under the mouse, sees the mouseEnabled=false setting, and then moves on to "B"'s parent ("PARENT"), but never checks to see if "A" is under the mouse (which it is)).
I can't make "B" a child of "A", because "A" is clipped and "B" needs to extend beyond this clipping area.
At this point I'm thinking I'm going to have to do my own hit testing, which is far from ideal given that "A" contains a large number of children.
Flash :: Transparent Parts Of Sprite Responding To Mouse Events
Jul 17, 2010I'm making a puzzle game in Flash cs5/as3 which can have custom puzzle shapes. Basically, the user can draw basic protrusions of a puzzle. Then I create a black and white puzzle piece with a custom function like this var piece:PuzzlePiece= new PuzzlePiece(true,true,false,false); PuzzlePiece is a class that extends Sprite. The four arguments correspond to the four sides of a puzzle piece (up, down, left, right). If the argument is true, it means that protrusion should stick out of that side of puzzle piece. If it's false, it should have a hole on that side, so it fits the protrusion. I first attach the protrusions that stick out, then i flip the protrusions that stick in, attach them to a new sprite (in_part) and invert them with the following function:

Capturing Mouse Events In Flash Outside Of Stage Doesn't Work In IE?
Jul 19, 2010I am trying to capture mouse events in flash while the mouse is being held down. The intention is to keep reciving events as long as the mouse is pressed, even if the cursor leaves the flash element. That's the behavior I get on all browsers other than IE, which only fires events while the cursor is inside the stage.
I'm pretty sure I've seen such "well behaved" flash applets work in IE before.
Flex :: Events - MouseEvent Doesn't Fire When Mouse Stays Over Element
Apr 23, 2010i'm trying to make a scrollable box, when a mouse enters and STAYS on "wrapper"'s area, "pubsBox" moves 10 pixels to the left.
<mx:Canvas id="wrapper" height="80" width="750">
<mx:HBox id="pubsBox" horizontalGap="10" height="80" width="100%" />
</mx:Canvas>
My problem is that I'm not sure how to make the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER work, to recognize that the mouse is still ON the area and so pubsBox should continue to move 10 pixels to the left every second. I understand that i have to use a Timer, but what I'm concerned about is the fact that I can't get Flex to recognize that the mouse is still OVER "wrapper" and continue firing the event.
ActionScript 3.0 :: RollOver On A MovieClip Underneath The TextField?
Oct 1, 2008I have a movieClip that I use as a background which sits underneath two textFields that are dynamically generated... I have added MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER and MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT to that movieClip so that I can change the alpha value to fade in/out the background...
The problem is when you directly rollOver on top of the textField which prohibits the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER happening on the background movieClip...I tried to set the selectable to false on those textFields, but that did not have any effect...

Android :: Do Adobe Air Apps Receive System Events

ActionScript 3.0 :: HTMLText FONT Tag Doesn't Work?
Dec 27, 20111. I need to put different font style in one single dynamic textfield. For example,the text is :"Welcome, Fred" and I want Fred to be bold and use "Vernada" as its font while others are left as "Arial"2. I am using embeded fonts and htmltext here, the strings are loaded from external xml files3. I found in the doc that the font tag could do this. So I set the embeded fonts to "Arial" for the dynamic textfield and add <FONT ACE="Vernada">Fred</FONT>in the xml files, but it will not show "Fred" at all4. Of course I added both "Arial" and "Vernada" into the library.5. The problem is when I change the embeded fonts into "Vernada" for the dynamic textfield and modify the xml like <FONT FACE="Vernada" SIZE="25">Fred</FONT>, it works this time. I mean the character size changed to 256. My conclusion is that the font tag only works when its font-family setting for its textfild is as the same that you want to set.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mixing Stage Mouse Events And Children Events?
Sep 30, 2009I have an animation that I want to start when clicking on the flash window. However, I've also have some buttons on the stage. If I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK on the stage, then it 'eats up' the events and the buttons don't work.
I've tried some tricks, by adding some invisible buttons on top of the real ones, and use the MOUSE_OVER event to selectively enable/disable the mouseEnabled flag for the stage, but didn't work because it complains that the property or method doesn't exist (which I find odd).
