ActionScript 3.0 :: KeyboardEvent : Event Doesn't Function Unless Click On Stage

Jan 2, 2010

I'm trying to wrapup a slideshow for a client and the client asked for keyboardEvents in addition to buttonEvents. So I went ahead and added a stage.addEventListener and it works but only if you click on the stage first. In Flash CS4 itself when you test a movie, the problem doesn't happen but when you test it in a browser, the problem exists. Go to [URL] and see what I mean. Try the keyboard left and right arrows first. Then click on the stage and try again. How can I make it get focus on the stage on startup?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Click Event Model - Make A Function And Add It As An Event Listener?

Feb 27, 2007

I'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

ActionScript 3.0 :: MouseEvent.CLICK Doesn't Work Properly - Function Is Not Triggering

Oct 2, 2009

In my class i've got something like this:

So Every time when I click left mouse button, the setClickedTrue function should be triggered. And that's what happen normally. But when I make a fast move with a mouse, and in the meantime i click left mouse button, or i make a fast move and finishing i will click left mouse button, the function is not triggering. Something like MouseEvent can't hear this Event. I'm making an avoid game, and it's very important. I'm using Timer class with delay = 30; I'm also have got 30FPS on Flash Proporties.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event.MOUSE_LEAVE - Sometime Function Doesn't Work?

Jan 14, 2010

Here is my scenario

1: I am using custom hand cursor in my application

2: When the mouse leaves the stage I am making my hand cursor invisible

3: Further I am using PV3D for animating plane.When the mouse moves in the stage the camera rotation is changed

4: When mouse moves out of the stage.the camera rotationY is set to zero

Problem:I am using

ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE,hideMouse);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,moveMouse);[code]....

There are other animation added to this function also.So the function works well but sometimes when I move the mouse out of the window from middle of stage to its out,the function doesn't work.Meaning it works for some fraction of time and then hand cursor is shown and camera rotation is not set to zero.Is there any trick that must be done to force Event.MOUSE_LEAVE work properly.

ActionScript 3.0 :: KeyboardEvent Is Not Dispatching Event?

Feb 16, 2011

I´m making a game.This game has 4 frames.It has a preloader.swf and game.swf.The preloader.swf loads the game.swf.The game.swf has 4 frames.In the first frame is given to the user the options to play the game (clicking a button "playGame" on "click" event) and to set the sounds settings (clicking a button "options" on "click" event).So far so good.

When the user clicks "playGame" I send the user to frame 2, where it has the option to select a game level using the arrow keys. So within the playGameListener I registered two keyboard events one for KEY_UP and another for KEY_DOWN. So, to have sure that it´s working, I added a trace for each keyboard event listener. But I´m not getting any message in the output window while pressing
left arrow or right arrow or any arrow.

So I learned that KeyboardEvent only dispatches an event if the flash player has focus.Well I think the flash player has never losed focus in this process.I´ve registered two events for Event.ACTIVATE and Event.DEACTIVATE and inside its listeners I added a trace with a message. Flash outputs me a message if I minimize the flash player window or if I maximize the flash player,but not while the game.swf´s frame transition.The listeners for the KeyboardEvent works only when I press at the flash player, then I receive the messages from the KeyboardEvent listeners.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Call On Function

Jul 5, 2011

The keyBoard event listeners call on the rotate and unrotate functions and based on the key inputs(A and D) will implement either of the functions and rotate the image or return it to the original upright position. However, I haven't been able to get the function to work. When I press the A or D keys on the keyboard nothing happens. I even put trace() in one of the functions to see if the function will even be implemented but I don't get anything. I put in my Scripts below. Why are the functions not working? Do the eventlisteners fire or are there conflicts? I'm not getting any error messages.

ti.border = true
ti.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onInput);
function onInput(event:TextEvent):void {
if(ti.text.search('a')!=-1) load_image("http://i54.tinypic.com/anom5d.png", "ottefct");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Simulate A Mouse Click Event On Stage?

Apr 29, 2010

I want to program something that does this but I have no idea how to get started or whether it is possible.

1. Using the loader class I will load several images to the stage and set their x / y coordinates accordingly so that they don't overlap.

2. A random x, y coordinate is generated within the document class.

3. If there are any loaders that exist at that location it will be deleted.

If the x, y coordinate was to be generated by a click to the stage, I could do it like this.

Code:
// detect for clicks at the stage level
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, dosomething);
public function dosomething(e:Event) : void

[Code]....

But I want to be able to send a simulated click instead at a certain x y coordinate, and then use the .target to operate on the object that it refers to. Is this possible?

I currently have an AS3 fla with a couple of mouseEvent functions but now the client wants to add a KeyboardEvent as well to the same exact functions. Can I add another eventListener to that without having to create a second function? It would be a huge waste of code if I did. Here's what I currently have in truncated form:

rightArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, slide_right);
leftArrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, slide_left);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stage - KeyboardEvent - When The Game Ends And I Press Restart, The SPACE Key Is Not Working?

Dec 17, 2009

The problem is: when the game starts, "SPACE BAR" is working fine and changes the game from day to night. When the game ends and I press restart, the SPACE key is not working. On the third time it works, on the fourth not and it follows that way. Every second time that I play the game, the SPACE key doesn't work.

The game initializes the player and sends him as a parameter a stage object and the player listens for KEY_UP.When I press restart, the game runs the init() function again.Below there are the Game.as and Player.as classes.

Code:
package

import com.greensock.TweenLite;[code].....
