How to get MacBook Pro Function Keycode in AS3.0. Then how to write the function+delete press event in MacBook Pro. the MacBook Pro Function Keycode and Delete Keycode.
View 2 RepliesThe trace function in this file doesn't output all of the keycodes on my keyboard. Some letters generate a keycode and others don't. For instance, "u" outputs 85 but "i" outputs nothing.
Here's the trace function trace(event.keyCode);

I have built a full flash site were i have loaded the .swf into a dreamweaver page named index.html.
I then upload the index.html and the associated .swf file to my homepage.
Start up the webpage and all looks good.
I then update the .swf and upload the new one but the change does no show. I can see the change on my laptop, from another PC or if i type /index.html after the address.
I even deleted my index.html and the .swf and could still see the webpage on the same MacBook as it is created on (only).
I've been trying to access my webcam on my macbook pro using flash cs4 in an attempt to try and use the live feed to detect levels of motion and from there use that information to alter / animate an image on the screen (idea being more movement = more change in image), however I cant seem to get my webcam to even stream out and play on a flash file.
The code I am using is:
start code
var camera;
var video;
camera = Camera.getCamera();
video = new Video(camera.width * 2, camera.height * 20);
video.attachCamera(camera);
addChild(video);
end code
And when I run the file it asks for me to grant access to webcam / microphones (which is what it should do) but it doesnt stream to the file.
I have a Mac and a PC - I have apple specific stuff on the Mac, everything else on the PC. My Adobe software is all on the PC. I like using the PC - bigger screen than the Macbook. Problem is that Adobe is effectively forcing me to use the MacBook.
Now I can use Flash to build cross-platform stuff from my PC, but I have to create all the certificates and profiles on the PC. If I want to do IOS development on the Mac I have to generate new certificates and profiles.
So switching between using flash/Flash Builder on a PC and native development on a MAc means continually regenerating certificates. If I had a desktop and PC latop, I could install on both, but not a PC and a MacBook. I am totally fed up with Adobe for this stupidity. If anyone knows differrent about the need to regenerate everything according to platform,
I have a DVD that came with a school book the book is called CompTIA A+ Guide to Managing and Maintaining Your PC. It came with a DVD that has some interactive labs on it that work thru html files and flash player. There is a master HTML file on the disk that runs the whole thing. After everything is activated with numbers and all that jazz you have a screen that lists all the labs you can do. You have to set Flash up to allow access to a folder on the DVD that holds the labs HTML files.
I have this working on my PC thru Firefox and Internet Explore. I want to be able to do this on my MacBook pro. So far i can't get it to work on Safari or Firefox or Opera on my Mac. I have set up flash the same way and if I use Finder to go directly to the chapter1_lab1.html file it works. But when i try and do it by access the master HTML file and clicking on one of the labs listed it doesn't work. Safari sits on a blank screen and Firefox gives me this error.
File not found
Firefox can't find the file at file///Volumes/LabConnection/Labs/2207012/Chapter1_Lab1/chapter1_lab1.html
What i have figured out is that on the DVD the files are listed with capitals (Chapter1_Lab1 not chapter1_lab1) If i enter this part into the address bar of Firefox ( file///Volumes/LabConnection/Labs/2207012/Chapter1_Lab1/chapter1_lab1.html) I get the same error if I change the c and l to Capitals it plays the lab. Hope this is understandable. What do I need to do to make it read the file since the master is telling to look for lower case files and for some reason my Mac won't recognize it has the same file with the upper case letters.
Does anyone know if the Flash Player / actionscript can capture MacBook and Air multi touch Scroll (two fingers) or any other multi touch user interactions?
View 4 RepliesI have a colleague who is trying to put together a Flash package for me on her macbook pro. It needs to play an flv file. She is unable to play flv files on her computer either in Flash or using the Adobe Media Player. I have no problem playing the same files on my macbook pro, we're both running the latest OS and have version 1.8 of Adobe Media Player. She went to the Adobe site to download the latest version of Adobe Media Player, hoping that might include whatever component is missing on her system. Because of Adobe's decision not to distribute AMP that didn't help.
She has Flash Professional CS5 11.0.2 on her system. When she imports an flv video into a Flash project and tries to play it she gets an error message saying it can't stream the video. Note that the video is on her hard drive, it is NOT on the internet so no streaming should be required. The actual error message is: "the video player is in the connection error state. It enters this state when a video stream attempted to load but was unsuccessful. There are two possible reasons for the error: no connection to the server or the stream was not found." Since it's a file on her hard drive, and she has loaded the file into the Adobe development environment successfully, the one thing we know for certain is that neither of these reasons is correct.
Not necessarily my own website, but if you browse to [URL] and take a look at the scores/schedules area that has the left/right slider, is there a reason taps that usually register as clicks don't cause the slider to move? Is it a flash bug? Just want to know out of curiosity's sake.
I'm on Google Chrome, OSX Lion, MacbookPro 13".
I built a site, and most of the content is pulling from an XML file. I think format some of that text with a css style sheet. When I publish this out on a powerbook running 10.5 with the first release of flash cs4 it works.But when I try to publish the same file on a new macbook pro or iMac the css doesn't work for me. Has anyone run into this kind of problem before?

I have a function that needs to pass the "spacebar" keycode into an array. I'm not sure how to give the function a keycode that hasn't actually been pressed. It seems like there should be a way to do this, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Is there a way to give a keycode (which is interpreted as such, rather than as a number) to a function, without that key having been pressed?
View 5 RepliesThis line of code is generating codes for other keys but not the Enter Key trace("key code: : " + e.keyCode); It's like AS3 doesn't know there is such a key. The code should be 13 but on my system according to AS3 it doesn't exist. I'm usind CS4 is this a CS4 bug?
View 2 RepliesIs there an easy way to convert keyCode to charCode?
Either this or a way to get the name of a key via it's keyCode and not it's charCode (I've made all of my movie use keyCodes so far, and I really don't want to have to convert it just to get the name of the key).I know there is a String.fromCharCode but this isn't what I need, I need one from keyCode.
I want to detect which keys are pressed while user input text into TextField.I tried something like

How come this code is not working:
PHP Code:
voca = new Object();
voca.onKeyDown = function( {

Does anyone know the greatest possible value the "keyCode" property will return?I'm mostly worried about international keyboards.I'm wanting to release a few KeyboardEvents myself using some rather nifty code (if I may say so myself) and want to make sure there are no future conflicts.Each of my "special keys" have a unique id numbered sequentially. Is there anywhere I can start my numbering from where I can be safe from conflicting key codes?

Everything worked perfectly fine in CS5, then I converted it to CS4 and it won't move my guy around, or even trace anything, when I press the WASD keys. The arrow keys still work fine.
I would have expected, given the way Adobe seems to do things, that you could reference some of the non-ASCII keycodes using a static constant, for example KeyCode.UP_KEY. Am I dreaming? Or do you just assume 38 will be the up key in perpetuity..?
View 1 RepliesI thought all keyboards were alike other than maybe special Chinese and Japanese ones. I was guessing that, other than adding a few extra letters (such as Sweden's the keyboards would be identical... WRONG. find it extremely annoying typing since when I reach for a ", I get an when I want a closed curly bracket, I get ^. Swedish keyboards are not a programmer's best friend. It is quite frustrating, but that is another subject, and quite off topic.o doubt, since the key locations vary so drastically in some areas,How are "keyCode" and "charCode" values different if captured from other keyboards?How smart is Flash, and how much does the developer need to compensate for this?Is there any way to detect what type of keyboard the user is currently using?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to catch Return key presses in a TLF textfield, but the code I'm using is not working:
Code:
function keyHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
trace(e.keyCode == 13); // true/false
[code].....
I've read that the enter keycode should be 13. However when using
trace(event.keyCode);
other keys will show up but the enter key does not. Could it be my computer or something? Using macbook pro keyboard.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, entered);
function entered(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
trace(event.keyCode);
[Code]....
i.e. I can't get this to trace "enter button" Also noticed no code traceable for Ctrl. alt Tab or Backpace
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP,go);
function go(e:KeyboardEvent)
{
trace(1);
[code]......
is there a way to display the keycode for a KEY_DOWN command on the screen ? and im not talking about the keycode itself ( the num ), im talking about the symbol on the keyboard...lets say im pressing T on the keyboard, i want to see T on the screen and when im pressing P, same thing, i wanna see P.
