View 2 RepliesI was certain that in AC3 this is done by default, when the button is in focus and the ENTER key is press, it dispatches a Click event.
myButon.addEventListener("click", funClick);
function funClick(evtObj:Event):void { trace("yes");}
When my focus is inside the input text field, pressing CTRL+ENTER works but ENTER does not.Pressing Enter when my focus is anywhere BUT the input text field works just fine..My intention is to detect if ENTER key was pressed after the user fills out the field, but it seems to only work for CTRL+ENTER
ActionScript 3:
// works:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);
// ignored:
email.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);
[code]....
ENTER results in charCode == 0, whereas CTRL+ENTER is charCode == 13 email was created using the Text tool and set to "Editable"
Note: I am testing in Chrome and Firefox running Flash v10
I'm creating a Flash instant messaging application (through XMPP protocol) and run into a problem. It isn't that important but I was quite upset that I wasn't able to solve it and I want to know if their is a solution =D
I have a TextArea chat input and a button to send the text, the TextArea is multiline and so captures the Enter key to jump one line... What I need is to send the message with the Enter key and jump with a Ctrl+Enter combination... My ideas were to disable the bubbling of the Enter key, trap it, and then manually assign the Ctrl+Enter combination to jumping the line in TextArea but couldn't find how to do all this...

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make this game but I cant get any further because of the following: (copy pasted the necessary parts, not sure if this is all you need though...
Selected[unitcounter].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, moveselecter);
function moveselecter(evt:MouseEvent):void{
var Unitcounted:Object = evt.currentTarget
evt.target.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, moveTo);
trace("hello")
} function moveTo(evt:MouseEvent):void {
trace("hello2")
}
It does give hello but not hello2 so the event should do its work if u ask me...
I'll first say that I'm a Flash designer but I'm not really technically inclined which may be why I still haven't figured out how to get around the Microsoft IE 'Activate' double click problem with Flash content.I have a completely Flash site that's designed with Flash MX. All of the fixes seem to be for Flash 8 or for Flash content embedded in an HTML page. I've tried posting questions on several of the Flash sites but no one seems to be getting my question.I publish all of my pages in Flash, then upload the resulting HTML and swf files to my site. I do not write any HTML at any time. I only write actionscript. Is there a purely actionscript solution to the activate problem? Or possibly an external .js fix that can be referenced with an #include "something.js" inside the flash source file?

View 3 RepliesI have a scrollbar that scrolls left or right when the cursor is moved either side of the central x coordinate. I've been trying to change it so the scroll only activates when the cursor is towards the far right hand side (ie x>75%) or towards the far left hand side (x<25%) of the scrollbar, leaving the central 50% of the scrollbar inactive.
Code:
function scrolling() {
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
container_mc._x += Math.cos(((mask_mc._xmouse)/mask_mc._width)*Math.PI)*15;

I'm working on a more interactive movie. It basically just has effects over the video that go outside of the FLVPlayback's dimensions to seem more "realistic." It seems very basic, but I am unsure where I would begin. Let me tell you the basics: It's offline, I imported the video from my computer and used the "Load external video with the playback component."My FLVPlayback on the stage is called:
fla_movieTrailer It has cuepoints already in the .FLV video. I have one Event one named "blacksmoke." If the video reaches the cuepoint "blacksmoke" I want it to play the MovieClip named fla_blacksmoke. So how do I have it activate fla_blacksmoke?
Click to Activate and Use this Control. upgrade to Studio 8 has been rendered anemic by the requirements of "more security" by Microsoft and others. Now Flash has an error message and you have to click the little sucker to get it to work. Someone dropped the ball BIG TIME on this one. Surely there is a fix for this for a non-programmer such as myself. I thought I was just stupid until I went on Taco Bell's [URL]..

View 1 RepliesMy main scene in only on 2 frames. On the second layers I have some buttons that activate my movie clips (on the third layer)... These buttons can be pressed 'randomly' and after the muvie clips are played my buttons (one by one) disappear to reveal what on the first layer. Here there's another button, but I want it to be active only after all my movie clips have been played. What kind of ActionScript should I use to tell flash to go to the second frame of my time line (where my button on the first layer is active) only after all the mcs have been played.
My file at the moment is in AS2... This should be a second part of a game. People who arrive at this stage should now which are the right buttons to press. If they press the right one a pop up opens and some buttons disappear to reveal the massage that's behind. When all the right buttons have been pressed I need to play the frame 'end' on my timeline... The attached fla is an example of mine animation the right buttons are the red ones.
