ActionScript 3.0 :: Touch Event Function Not Working For Mobile Project
Aug 23, 2011
I am using flash builder4.5 and creating simple touch event function in pure Action script mobile project. When I run with on desktop running it not works but mouse event works. How can I get this to work with touch event function on desktop running
I am going to make an Arabic application using Flex builder 4.5. I have two questions that need to be answered What is the difference between ActionScript Mobile Project and Flex Mobile Project. (AS Mobile Project supports iOS and Android but I doubt about it!!) Is Arabic support available in Flex Mobile Projects or AS Mobile Projects? I know TLF supports Desktop and web apps but does it support mobile platforms?
I have a class file defined in my package as MyGlobals.as.[code] (I have tried adding/removing "static" and "dynamic" to no effect.)I am trying to call a touch event from the main timeline in this way:myObject.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, MyGlobals.myFunctionName);(I have tried removing the class name to no effect.)When I compile I get the error 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: TouchEvent. This error occurs on function definitions in the class file.What syntax/concept am I getting wrong? The functions were working fine when I was using constants in the timeline, but I need to be able to reuse these functions over and over again, so I wanted them to be able to take touch event variables so that I didn't have to write a different function for every touch event.I tried googling "error 1046" but I can't find anything useful.
I have started developing a simple iphone app in flash CS5In that app there is a bulk of text in ABOUT US section which need touch scrolling.right now i have added scroll bar.But i want to make the text touch scroll able..Since i will be using it in Iphone.
I am developing a game for Android using Adobe AIR 3.0, also i am using Samsung Galaxy S2 to test my game, and is running pretty well with decent 30 fps.to control the game-play, i am using virtual joystick and some button on screen (e.g. to throw weapon, jump etc). however it seems that multitouch is not working fine, if i press one button and and in the same time if i down another button. first one stops working. here is the code snippet which defines multitouch behavior -
[code]...
for jump button, virtual joystick etc - i am using TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN event.
I wanted to know how I would make a whole symbol (an image) scrollable? I have found out how to do the multi-touch pinch to zoom but I can't find any code samples that will let me make the image scroll vertically only with one finger.
How do you scroll an editable TextArea (Flex Hero) on a touch device? I am referring to the situation where the text does not fit in the TextArea height.When I try to tap and drag the text gets selected and not scrolled... Am I missing a something here? I am using verticalScrollPolicy = on (also tried auto).I am testing the code in the Blackberry Playbook simulator (my targeted device for my app).
IŽam trying to create my own custom list component in a Flex mobile Project which fires an Event when the user touches a listitem and holds the finger down for a given time.Some kind of "longTouch"-Event like its implemented on native android listitems to edit the entry for example.
I tried to listen for the MOUSE_DOWN Event to start a timer and dispatch an event when the timer finished. But this approach failed because i cant get the listitem that was pressed by the user because the List component updates the "selectedItem"-property only after the user lifts his finger from the list.
I would like to move (right or left according the current view) between 2 views when I move my finger on the mobile screen; for example with Google+ mobile application, in profil section, you can change the view just on move your finger on the screen, and the offset and the moving speed must be checked before change complete view.
Adobe states that Charts are supported in mobile projects but when I try to change the following working files (created project with File - New - Flex Mobile Project - Google Nexus One):
I've been successfully building AS3 projects that import FXG graphics using FlashBuilder 4 for web. I'm now upgrading to FlashBuilder4.5 so I can build mobile apps but I'm getting an error when I try and using FXGs.The error is ,The definition of base class SpriteVisualElement was not found. [Generated code (use -keep to save): Path: datagold-interface.as, Line: 6, Column: 27].The line and column number don't seem to relate to anything I can understand..
I am developing a project in Flash Builder which will load a file built by Flash CS4. The code in Flash CS4 is below, it's a doc class. I am sure the dispatchEvent has been invoked[code]...
I'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).
I am using it on a Sony vaio l pc (like hp's touchsmarts) in windows 7 the app doesn't need any multi-touch gestures (only single touch clicks and drags) so i am using mouse events
everything is fine (including mouse click and move events) except that a single touch to the screen (with no move) doesn't fire a mouse down. it is fired only after a small move of the finger
outside the app, on my desktop, i see that the small windows 7 cursor jumps immediately to where a finger is placed, meaning this issue isn't a hardware or a windows problem but rather how internally the flash app receives "translated" touch-to-mouse events from the os.
for example, in a windows Solitaire game, a simple touch to the screen immediately highlights the touched card.in my app, a button will change to the down state only if i touch it and also move my finger slightly (click events - down and up - are triggered fine)
shouldn't the MOUSE_DOWN event trigger exactly like how a TOUCH_BEGIN would in the new touchevent class?
Right now I'm designing an application for smartphones and tablet. What I am interested to know is whether I can integrate specific functions. These app would include:
1 The automatic screen rotation 2 Scroll page (in particular pages I will have a list of which need scrolling)3 will have many pages and would require a small search engine
I'm developing an ActionScript 3.0 project for Blackberry Playbook, Android and iOS. I have some custom UI classes, like buttons, that I want to use it in another projects. How can I make an actionscript mobile library project? I'm using Flash Builder 4.5, and I'm not using Flex in my code.
I have a project that was written using ACtionScript 3 in the Flash Builder Burrito preview IDE, with Adobe AIR 2.5 SDK. The way I was closing down the application was with....
stage.nativeWindow.close();
Now I've taken this same project and I'm using Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP with the Adobe AIR 2.6 SDK and I've turned it into an ActionScript Mobile Project and this line no longer works when running on an Android device because the nativeWindow never gets set, it's null. I've tried researching online how to replace this line of code and all I have been able to find is code for closing it down if I deploy it on iOS, which I'm not as of right now, or how to close it down if it's a projector project, or the stage.nativeWindow.close().
I recently discovered that the MouseEvents in my Flash animations aren't working on touch screen Android tablets. Is there some extra code that I need to add to make this work? There's an example at [URL]. My other issue is more of a web design issue, but the animations are not placed correctly on the webpage.
I'm currently doing a project which strictly relies on sharp timings and uses as3 timers... But the timers make some problems..
Here's my code used to test the timers.. Select allvar milliTimer:Timer = new Timer(1); var secondTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000); secondTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tickSecond); milliTimer.start(); secondTimer.start(); function tickSecond(evt:TimerEvent):void{ [Code] .....
I have a problem that seems easy enough to solve but I'm trying to do it with reusable code, which involves doing something I don't understand yet. I've googled this endlessly and read dozens of articles and I'm still just as lost as when I started. I'm hoping a live human being can help me make sense of it.
I have a movie clip on stage. When this movie clip is pressed, I want it to play a certain frame of another movie clip for as long as it's being touched. (It's a map of the US, that will display each state name as it is pressed.) I COULD write 50 different functions, each to call a different frame of the displayName movie, or I could write my own custom event that would be able to receive from each touch event a string variable to then tell displayName which frame to play. So basically, I have, for example:
I want to create a actionscript mobile project in FB4.5. There is very little information on this by the way. Anyway I want to link to another mxml component by clicking on a button. in flex it is easy but how do i call this in AS3?[URL]..
this is how flex does it <s:Button label="Continue" click="navigator.pushView(MyNewView)" styleName="next"/>
I want to download a video on mobile device through flex framework. For that reason I need to have support of multithreading so that I can download video in background. Unfortunately, Flex doesn't have multithreading support. I am quite new with flex environment.
I'm developing an ActionScript mobile project for Android. When I add the following import, compiler says that is not found. import fl.transitions.Tween; How can I use Tween with mobile projects?
I am currently developing an application in the latest version of FlashBuilder and I cant seem to find out how I can incorporate AdMob ads or any other Ads into my application.There seen to be a few tutorials online focused on Flash however im not sure how to get those to work in the Flex environment.
I wanted to develop a flex based mobile project. I have Eclipse plugin for Adobe Flash Builder. But I cannot see any option in the "Create Project" list for Mobile project.I have seen Mobile Project is available in Flash Builder Standalone version, but I wanted it in eclipse plugin.
I have a mobile app that gets a rss feed. The date on the rss feed displays Fri, 28 Oct 2011 17:30:00 GMT and I would like that to render as a short date in cst time standard dd/mm/yyyy and time. The code for my app is below. any help would be great This is the first time working with Adobe Flash Builder.
I am running Flex mobile project and I would like my mobile app to be able to load and display pdf files that are saved locally. I do not want to go out to the web to access these pdf files.
I cant figure out how to make this code work for a locally saved file.
I am developing an ActionScript for Mobile project in which i want to read a .txt file from my sdcard and do some stuff with its data. I am aware of how to read a file from sdcard in native android java, but i cant seem to find my way around this problem since there is no emulator in Flash Builder 4.6 like the one in Eclipse.
