I'm trying to disabling a button I have, but what only happens is that the states Down and Over are disabled, but the button still does something when I click it.
ActionScript Code:
//The place where I set the event
playerOneField.player1JoinButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, handleClick);

I've downloaded the Flash CS5 trial and am trying to use the software, but a lot of buttons and symbols are greyed out for me and I don't know why. Here's a typical use case for me:
- Open Flash CS 5
- Create a new Flash AS3 Project
- Try to use the buttons on the right-hand toolbar, but they are greyed out
Also, I can import images to the stage or library, but I cannot click anything or edit their properties.See attached image for a screenshot of the buttons in their disabled, greyed-out state.I can even open an old project made in CS4, but again, I cannot edit any symbols that I've already made.Is there something I need to do to enable the buttons?
I'm making a VERY basic Jeopardy game, and I need buttons to be disabled after being clicked on once.
Oh, and I'm working in CS3, but I'm using AS 1&2 because that's what I learned... I have no idea how to use AS 3...
example: frame 1 has btn11 in it. btn11 when clicked takes the person to frame 2. when done with frame 2, they click on return.
the return button (btnReturn1) has the following AS
on (release) {
gotoAndStop ("Round1",1)
btn11.enabled=false;
}
the problem is that it works at first - the button disables when I get back to frame 1, but the next time I click a different button then return to frame 1, the first button I disabled isn't disabled anymore.
my actionscript so that my disabled buttons stay that way no matter how many times I come and go from the frame? or if you have a better way to do it, that'd be great. basically, it's like the jeopardy screen, and after "songs" for 200 is clicked, I don't want it to be clickable again at all.
I want to generate a button sequence on ButtonBar with some disabled buttons:[code]

The movieclip will be visible only if another button(not within this movieclip) is pressed.

View 7 RepliesWe are using default CS5 skins with an flvplayback component built through action script 3. When playing certain videos (and only certain videos, however there isn't yet a pattern), the play/pause, stop & seek buttons are completely unresponsive. They don't change stats on hover & they are unclickable.However, the fullscreen button does always work, and upon going fullscreen and coming back out, the buttons now work again. So far, the problem was seemingly at its worst displaying a video that was encoded with Sorenson spark (an older codec) and we wondered if it had to do with the file itself, the headers, anything of that sort. But the fact that the skin and buttons work fine once entering and exiting fullscreen - that is perplexing.

I know that CSS component support was disabled in CS3. Is this still true for CS4 (AS3)? I have a set of component skins that I bought real cheap, but I bought it knowing that it was designed for Flex (came with a .fla, .mxml, and .css) but I was hoping there was a simpler way to skin my components than sitting down and replacing each individual part of the component (plus the new skin graphics are named remotely close to their intended usage so I'm kind of clueless what goes where).
EDIT: I should have mentioned this is for the Flash CS4 IDE...
I have a set of buttons with the following script... so when clicked they go to relevant frame. My question is how to I temporarily disable a button so it appears highlighted but you cannot click it when you are in that spot. E.g. when scenario 1 button takes you to scenario 1, I only want the others buttons to be clickable...
A_scenario1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,part1scenario1);
function part1scenario1(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("label4"); }
A_scenario2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,part1scenario2);
function part1scenario2(event:MouseEvent):void {

I am creating a game using flash. When the player looses the game, I need to show a message like "You lost...!!!" as an overlay to the currently displayed view. So when this message is displayed, user should not be able to click the controls (may be button or some movie clips) behind it. How can it be possible?

I have a game with a timer. Lots of moveable pieces using startDrag and stopDrag on a dropTarget. when the timer hits Zero, all the pieces are disabled using enabled=false;
but if I am mid-drag with a piece when the clock runs out, I can't get rid of it, and it won't let me hit my "reset" button.
Now that I have the focus on my DataGrid and I can select a row using the up and down keyboard arrows, I then would like to confirm my row selection by hitting the enter key.But, my keydown listener on the DataGrid doesn't see the enter, escape and delete keys. Most of the other keys are seen. I can browse the list by using the up and down keys (and I can see my function in the keydown listener are called).It only happens when I check my application from the Flash IDE. In debug mode, these keys are taken into account.My DataGrid is not editable but selectable.

View 2 RepliesIn Actionscript 3 I see that if I press the "8" key (from the numpad) I got the result of keyCode of the numpad key "8", but when I disable the "Num Lock" and press the numpad key "8", the event I receive the keyCode of the Up Arrow key...
How to difference between the keys of the numpad (with Num Lock disabled) and the original keys, such as the Arrows, End, Insert, Delete and so on?
I've tried using the keyLocation property of the event, the value of that property is 0 for the arrows and 3 for the numpad, but when the Num Lock is disabled the value for the 4, 6, 2 and 8 in the numpad are 0, so I can't difference between the numbers with numpad disabled and the Arrow keys.
Also the numLock property of the Keyboard class didn't work, because I can't know if I press the Up Arrow or the 8 whit Num Lock disabled (because they trigger the same event, or I think that)

I'm having difficulty setting up the tabbing of some textfields after I disable and then re-enable the tabChildren property. Has anyone found a solution for this? I'll use a very simple example. I set the tabIndex of all the textfields. I test it out and the textfields tab properly. Then I set the following pseudo code to a button which will disable all the textfield tabbing in a particular MovieClip ("mcForm") and then one line later, it re-enables the tabbing:
mcForm.tabChildren = false;
mcForm.tabChildren = true;
However, the expected behavior does not happen. I expect that when I click the button, there would be no change in the tabbing, but in actuality the tabbing of the textfields are now disabled. It's almost as if the 2nd line of code that re-enables the tabbing has no effect.
I'm using the slider component, and its working pretty well. I'm just having 1 issue with the enabled state. the Situation: The user has to click and hold the slider down throughout the application. once their session ends the application sends out an event to disable the slider amoung other things. All of the events work fine except for the sliders disabled state.
the Issue: The slider is effectively disabled although because the users has focus on the slider handle before and whilst the disbale event fires the user can still move it around like its really working. Untill you release your mouse it continues to move around.
I'd like to somehow force a release click or something to loose focus on the slider component so it takes on the disbaled state right away once the event is dispatched rather than waiting for the user to release for this to happen.
I would like to ask, if there exists any code, which would make a function disabled onMouseWheel?
