ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Sentence Become The Function When Box Clicked?
Jan 17, 2011
I have box mc and a textbox called "test" and I have a sentence in there saying trace("word")
how would I make the sentence become the function when box clicked? Like when box clicked it traces since the sentence has the code... like for example ...
box.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, try)
function try(event:Event)
{
var newString:String=test.text
}
is it the function that has to be changed (text:String)?? Id like the textbox to contain/execute the code not "hardcoded".

Currently we are extending the website for a coffee retailer. The whole page is in Flash and content is supplied by external XML-Files. However, the company expanded to Israel and therefore we are working on a hebrew version of the page (different charset and right-to-left). This works to 80% fine but sometimes we have sentences which contain latin nouns.

I want to be able to do the following:
Type out a sentence and then highlight one of the words in the sentence and create a link to go to another frame.
The only other way which is time consuming (Especially with possibly hundreds of sentences) is to create each word as a button and then fit each word as a sentence together.
surely there is an easier way?
It will be the basis of an Elearning course for kids to click on a word in a sentence and based on their choice they go to a Correct or Wrong frame.
Captivate cannot do this unfortunately.

how to make a pre-made sentence appear when a button is clicked? Can this be done with AS2? I need a button that when clicked will display a sentence at random.
The way I have it in mind is to make a movie clip with say 10 different sentences on 10 different frames marked with labels (Sentence1, Sentence2, etc.) and each time the button is clicked, it will pick a random frame label thereby displaying the sentence on that frame. I just need to know the actionscript to link to the button.

is there a way to split up a sentence say 30 characters each into there own variables. I've seen this done before. --sum up take in a variable and give out a few other variables, each 30 character cut ups of the first var. (note: i have a sweet rpg with like every code possibly imagined and a engine thats almost done this is my only draw back i have a metheod right now but i dont like the system i have made to insert data into boxs and you hit space to get info. like a "a" button for a GB game. This will allow me to write an entire sentence.)

I have a simple question for someone --Im very new at Flash. I have a box and 3 different colored buttons at the left. When a person clicks the red button the box turns red, green button turns the box green, etc. My question is I would like the text color of the box to appear under the box according to what button they press. Here is my code to turn the box red. What line would i add to have the word Red show up under the box when the red button is clicked. Do I type the word Red and make it a movie clip? Then what?

I have a function set up to stop a timer internal function pauseTiming():void { timer.stop(); } how would I call that function when a button is pressed, say with an instance name PauseTimer? I would also need to call the function startTiming when the button is pressed a second time. (or create two buttons, start and stop).

I'm writing an app where I want to know which, of an unspecified set of buttons, the user is clicking.The actual location of buttons determined by previous user actions, so I cant use information like mouseX.You can see from the code the way I'm attacking this - trying to access the button based on its position in the display list of a container. Unfortunately this has always led to type coercion errors 0 - AS can't see that e.target is a DisplayObject.se has solved this problem.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.Graphics;

My document class is Controller It's constructor addChilds an instance of MenuScreen
MenuScreen has 1 button called 'gallery'. Clicking on it removes the MenuScreen from the document class and adds galleryScreen to the Document class.
After the galleryScreen becomes a child of the document class I add a keyevent listener like so:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownHandler);
Here's a snippet of keyDownHandler:
ActionScript Code:
public function keyDownHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void{
[Code]....
The Problem is: 1) I'm pressing LEFT arrow key like mad and nothing happens UNTIL I left click anywhere on the screen, THEN keyDownHandler works.

I've set up a function to pause the sound in an mp3 player whenever certain things are clicked on the page, using ExternalInterface, but I'm having a problem in IE.The setup is this: I have a video page that calls up a list of YouTube videos using RSS.he most recent video is displayed on the page in a div called "display". Then all the rest of the videos in the feed are displayed as thumbnails and links...If you click one of them, then the main 'display' video is replaced and it starts playing. All of that works fine.hat I want is for the mp3 player on the page to pause the music whenever a video is started.The ExternalInterface function works properly. Whenever one of the LINKS is clicked, the mp3 player stops and the video starts, etc.
The problem is that I also want it to stop when the MAIN video is clicked. Obviously, since this is an external video loaded from YouTube, I can't access the FLA to add its own ExternalAccess code.I've tried adding an ID to the video object and then using it as the selector in jQuery to call the stopMovie function...no go. I've tried adding a class to it, and then calling the stopMovie function when the class is clicked. I've tried putting the click function on the div that the video loads into...nothing works. If I remove the main video and just have an empty div, then click the div, the mp3 player stops...but if I load the video into the div and click it, nothing happens (in IE...it DOES work in FF).The Actionscript:
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
ExternalInterface.addCallback("stopMovie", pauseSound);
function pauseSound(str:String):void {

I have a movie clip. Inside that movie clip, I have an input text with an instance name of text. I also have 2 frames of actionscript.
How can I make it that the 2 frames are disabled, and only enabled once you click on the input text?
I want this to happen so you can type in the input text with all capabilities. I already used setFocus, however it doesn't grant me the ability to backspace.[code]...

Is there a way to add an EventListener to a button and make it execute some action when it is clicked without calling a function?
In other words if I have three different buttons and I want to make an action depending on what button was clicked, something like.
If button 1 is clicked do this, if button 2 is clicked do this, if button 3 do this.
I know a different action can be taken using an eventListener and a function assigned to each button but I'm trying to understand more about AS3.
