View 8 RepliesI have an actionscript that moves a box across the stage when the mouse is over a left or right arrow shaped button . The script below does just that. BUT what I want to do is have the box repeatedly move until the mouse is moved off the arrow button .I have removed a lot of the code but hope this is enough to get my point across.
right_arrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.mouseOver, moveR) ;
left_arrow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.mouseOver, moveL) ;
function moveL(e:MouseEvent) {

I have a flash that has a background symbol that responds to CLICK event. On top of that symbol I have a sprite that contains a Bitmap with transparent pixels. Both of them are added to the stage, so they are not related directly.
I want clicks on the transparent pixels on the sprite to go straight through to the background. I have read about mouseEnabled / mouseChildren but have not been able to make these work. The symbol ignores the mouse events when I use them, but does not pass it along as if its transparent.
Is this possible to do with flash? Or will I have to re-route mouse events?
When game starts, the car runs automatically. Then we click the SPACE button, movement of car stops. And the door of structure near car is available to CLICK.
But in coding I got this error code:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter listener must be non-null.

This is some part of my game code...

how to make an animation reverse on a mouse event.I have a FLA with 20 frames with a movie clip (box_mc) with a motion tween applied, left to right then stops. I simply want to be able to click on the box to make it play backwards to the starting position. Simple? Not for me it seems. The last frame has a stop action, and the first has the code below.
import flash.events.Event;
box_mc.buttonMode = enabled;
box_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goBack);

I'm triggering the appearance of a tooltip via MOUSE_OVER on a button and I'm finding it keeps getting triggered if I keep the mouse pointer over the tooltip. Both the tooltip and button are MovieClips
How can I prevent this?

for(var i:Number=0; i < MapContainer.numChildren; i++) {
var Country:MovieClip = MapContainer.getChildAt(i) as MovieClip;

I don't know much about flash.. I've created a MC with tomatoes falling.. when the MC repeats itself, which I want it to, looks too "rough". I am hoping to make the transition a little smoother.. I've read a little about mathematical random function, but it looks so complicated.Here is the flash: http:[url].....
View 4 RepliesThe specifications where as follows: there should be a black square in which there is a faint picture of a sign. The user must be able to draw in the square and when he repeats the contours of the sign correctly - a popup appears.I made myself familiar with the ways you can allow a user to draw. However I have no idea how would you know if the two shapes/signs match and whether the user at least approximately drew the correct contour/sign

im trying to make a box that will bounce slowly between 2 and repeat ( i hope that makes sense 0_o) so far the code i have is
import flash.events.Event;
var speed:int = 3;
var hit:Boolean = false;

but one it hits wall 1 it moves 3 pixels to the right and stops =/ i tried changing the if(hit == true) to
if(ball.hitTestObject(wall1)){
ball.x += speed;
}
but it does the same thing.
I have two text boxes as outputs: "textDisplay1" & "textDisplay2".When I click the button "test" these outputs display a number between 0 and 1. That is what I want and I am happy with that.[code]The problem I am having is, I do not want the same number in both boxes. If textDisplay1 displays the number 0, I want textDisplay2 to display the number 1. I do not want both boxes to have either a 0 at the same time or a 1 at the same time.[code]But that just makes it randomly guess a number again which sometimes is the same number.Can I make it if textDisplay1 = 1, make 1 unpickable by textDisplay2? Which would only leave the 0.
View 3 RepliesI am creating a thumbnail scroller and I have everything set to work. The last final issue I'm having is this:
The scroller displays 25 items.
8 at a time.
When you page left/page right it scrolls to the next(or previous) 8 thumbs in the list.
This is what we want to happen:
Once the final (25th) thumb is reached it starts over on the first thumb again and we are back at 1. So that it becomes an endless loop.[code]...

View 3 RepliesIs it possible to use a movie clip to block the mouse from activating the stage MOUSE_OVER event?
View 4 RepliesMy stage has about 25 buttons on it. Each button when pressed to tweens the background to some random x/y coordinates and then loads an external swf file.This is all working, but the timing is off. How can I wait for the initial background tween to end before I make the loader call to the .swf file.Currently each button's behavior is called on the MouseEvent.CLICK event which calls a function that knows its unique filename.swf. I know you can add the MOTION_FINISH even to the tween event but then I would have to call a new function and lose track of the button that initially called it.
View 3 RepliesI have a "large" movie clip and "small" movie inside a "large" movie clip but on it's let's say upper right corner:
Code:

If i try to catch Mouse.DOWN events on them the following way:
Code:
largeMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, largeClicked);
smallMc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, smallClicked);
Then of course both event are captured no matter where i click.Is it possible to capture independent mouse clicks on both of these two movie clips and if so, how can i do that?

Basically I am dynamically calling product buttons, which on rollover invoke a child of a dropdown, which in turn invokes children which are squares filled with colour.What I need is for these squares to be clickable which will then colour something else using the colourMatrixFilter (I'll probably start another post for this problem at a later date).For some reason though adding the Square as a child to it's rightful parent - the dropdown makes the listeners completely useless. Add to the stage and the listeners work. I can't work out why either and have done loads of searching.[code] also if someone could show me in the right direction of pulling the XMLdata for the squares (which will be a name attribute).
View 4 RepliesThis is a very basic question but I can't seem to find an answer. I have a mouse over event and have created the buttons with the mouse overs which is working great. I created the actionscript to go to a specific web page when a user clicks the button. Now, I need to add a label to the mouse over so when someone mouse's over any area of the button, it will show them a particular name for the button.
I am sure that this can be done using actionscript in a mouse event roll over command but I can't figure out what I need to show the text. Here is where I am:

View 1 RepliesI have a parent sprite that contains several child sprites. I have attached mouse click and mouse down event amongst others to the parent sprite. And in the listeners I check which child has been targeted using the "event.target" property. However It seems that the mouse click event does not trigger for some reason. Is it possible that the mouse down event is eating up the click event. Is this a know issue in as3 and is there a possible workaround?
