I don't know why but this function will not work with double click I want a double click button on frame 2 to go to frame 1.The function works fine if it is a mouseClick event but double click prevents it from working. what is with that?
MovieCLips inside another container MovieClip won't respond to a DOUBLE_CLICK event.I've added EventListeners for MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_UP and the contained MovieClips respond well to those, but not the DOUBLE_CLICK (Argh). Why? Doesn't DOUBLE_CLICK propugate to the children inside the container? I've tried doubleClickEnabled = true, but that don't work.The code:
I'm new to AS3 and have the following problem. MovieCLips inside another container MovieClip won't respond to a DOUBLE_CLICK event. I've added EventListeners for MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_UP and the contained MovieClips respond well to those, but not the DOUBLE_CLICK (Argh). Why? Doesn't DOUBLE_CLICK propugate to the children inside the container? I've tried doubleClickEnabled = true, but that don't work.
is it not possible to have both CLICK and DOUBLE_CLICK on the same display object? i'm trying to have both for the stage where double clicking the stage adds a new object and clicking once on the stage deselects a selected object.
it appears that DOUBLE_CLICK will execute both itself as well as the first CLICK functions in the path toward DOUBLE CLICK (mouse down, mouse up, click, mouse down, mouse up, double click).in other languages i've programmed with there was a built-in timers that set the two apart. is this not available in AS3?
UPDATE:here's some code. essentially what i would like is have one or the other, not both with double click
how to listen on a SINGLE CLICK as well as DOUBLE CLICK for an object?
Meaning, one behaviour if the object is single clicked and another behaviour if it is double clicked.
Simply adding two event listeners (CLICK and DOUBLE_CLICK) leads to CLICK handler getting called always.
I understand one could start a timer upon the CLICK and if another CLICK doesn't arrive within 'x' milliseconds generate a SINGLE_CLICK event, else generate a DOUBLE_CLICK event. It seems like a hack and dependant on CPU load.
I need to listerner the yellow botton inside a my movieclip_mc.This movieclip is draggable (drag and drop) and zoommable (with a slider).Now I've more than 200 buttons inside it. Every buttons have a code to pass a function. This code is a .txt name to read and put insie a text_Area.
Now I need a function to listener the double_clik on every buttons to pass his reference like codeXXX.txt to a function that read info inside the .txt file and put the reference into a text_area or a popUp.
I am trying to defeat my psychological block with dynamically loaded fonts in AS3, and I have an annoying problem. I am creating a clock with a textfield and I am loading fonts from a SWF library: the available classes/linkages are "Arial", "ArialBold", "MyriadPro", "MyriadProBold" and "Verdana".This is the line where I get the class from the SWF, and it extracts the class correctly
Code: clock = new Clock( { fontClass: assetsLoader.getFontClass("skin", "Arial") } ); The constructor...
I have run across a strange problem. When I load products2.swf by itself, I can call the two "copy" files and everything works. When I open 0342.swf (the index page), I can switch between the home and products2 pages, but I can't view the "copy" pages.I'm guessing there may be some sort of conflict with variable names, but I have been messing with it for most of today.I have uploaded all of the FLA files to here:[url]....
If you make an swf file out of each of the attached items, and open the 0342 file, you will see what is supposed to be happening.
on (release) { if (_root.currMovie == undefined) { _root.currMovie = "home";[code].....
I have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
I am using Flash CS4 with actionscript 2 to create an interacitve portfolio.I have 2 text buttons that work when I test them with "enable simple buttons." When I publish to IE these buttons won't work. I have created over 50 buttons using the same methods, they all work.
I have a completed project (AS2) that contains a lot of FLVs. I burned it onto DVD and it works great on Mac (guide.app) and PC (guide.exe).Here's the web version of the project.http:[url]....Now, months later, I have to provide the project with source files (FLA's) and some other stuff - so I got an external HD, copied the files from the working DVD onto it. Running the guide.exe off of the external (connected to WinXP SP3) works just like running it off the DVD - EXCEPT for the FLVs which simply to not appear.
http:[url]...Everything up to that step works: When I click on "guide.exe", the "splash screen" opens showing the title and 4 buttons. These buttons are to choose a language and they work.When I select a language and click its button the GUI for the language with menus appear and they work. When I click on a topic from the menu, the topic's skin appears but the video inside the skin doesn't play. Everything works but the FLVs.
Even weirder - If I use VLC Player to open an FLV directly - the FLV will play. That tells me there is some path issue but how can a path change when it's compiled into the SWF? Besides - the paths from swf to flv has not changed when I copied all the files to the external.why the FLVs will not play on the external the same way they play when on the DVD?
i have a flash that I have tried to add my html link to the aboutus.htlm, billboard.html, and contac.html and it is not working? I am still new but would like to email the flash file for someone to tell me why its not working- I added the link for aboutus.html but its not working.
alright, here is the deal: i have published a .swf AND a macintosh projector file and the only thing the movie contains is one button with a link to a web page. here is my actionscript:
on(release) { getURL("http://www.google.com"); }
i click on the button and absolutely nothing happens. has anyone ever come across something like this? is this a settings problem?
I have a swf that is pretty complicated, you can interact with the page and go to different keyframes and it stops and/or starts depending on buttons, but I want to put it in a fla or something so I can put other swfs next to it and build it up and put several of them together as one.
I don't care about making it too complicated, I just want one interactive swf to go to the next compiled swf when that movie ends, but when I try importing it or loading it it just runs straight through without stopping or paying any attention to the scripting.
The Listbox is populated with the category and the image and caption is being shown in the correct place but the list box doesn't function and the images cycle through all and not just the ones in that category.Here is my code
Code: var ssx:XML = new XML(); ssx.ignoreWhite = true;[code]...........
I have created a simple site in flash cs 4 using AS2.0. The nav bar buttons are text. I have made them into Movie Clips and put actionscript onto the MC instance which looks like this: [code]The button does not work. I have converted the symbol to a button and kept the Actionscript on the instance and they do not work. I have in fact copied exactly what I have done on a previous site that worked and it is not working here.The AS is not on the timeline, nor on the button or movieclip but on the instance of it. I am at a loss as to why it doesn't work. When I use the button instead of the MC the button flashes/blinks but still does not work.
I won't post the file because I'm using someone else's character and it's fine with them, but I doubt it should be here - this is the only code that's a problem, though.
I am working on a site (in Flash CS5 -- using AS3) with drop-down menus. I finally got my drop-downs to work and was stoked for that. I then decided that I wanted the menu bar to motion tween in from the left. I placed the tween on the bar, and saw the tween line on the stage. However, when I go to test the movie in Flash, or publish it and watch it in my browser, the tween doesn't happen, the bar just stays left of the stage.
I have made a swf that loading another swf file,it works well alone. When i put it into a powerpoint file using shockwave flash object,it works only one time. When i close the ppt and reopen it, the swf cannot work.
I finished my website and uploaded to internet. And when I showed friends that use IE7, CHROME or any other browser besides FIREFOX it failed to work. The SWF gets stuck at the preloader at a certain percentage but the animation of the preloader still runs. Here is the link (try to watch from different browsers): [URL]..
I'm trying to create an informative flash program on Mt. St. Helens about the dust cloud it created when it errupted. I have everything ready to go including the buttons and the pages the screen or next image it should take you to. I'm just stuck on how I get the buttons to actually take you to the next frame.
