ActionScript 3.0 :: Must Click On The Stage To Initialize Key Event?
Jan 31, 2011
i created a game with 2 frames:1 is the welcome screen + player name input text box.the other is the game itself.at first the game didn't have the welcome screen, and if i wanted to play (with the arrows keys) there was no problem to press one of the arrows and make the player move..since i added the first frame, in order to play i must click somewhere on the stage and only then i can press the arrows keys.. before clicking nothins happens! it happens only if i have more than 1 frame..it is important to mention that it happens in the flash player ( i didn't check what happens in web browsers..)

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'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?

I'm running through my code and when the program runs, it gets to the line of code that says "stage.addChild(mainGrid)", it simply gives me the same old 1009 error. Been scratching my head for days now.

Before this application runs, I have to do some basic intialising - load up some stuff, build the display list, check I've got the right xml, wire a few objects together. I'm used to doing all of this stuff in the constructor of Main() - my main application class, but it gets a little unwieldy. Would there be any mileage in offloading this into a command class? Is that common practice? I was thinking that way all that Main() would have to do is just listen for events and manipulate methods of the other main classes. The only thing that concerns me is that Main needs references to the main classes and to add event listeners etc. This could be tricky if it's all set up in a command...

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.

I just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

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.

I 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?

I have a moving vehicle on the stage, which should change directions according to where I click on the stage.I already made it work using this formula:var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90;However, I need the car to tween to the correct angle, instead of just "jumping" to it. While this is easy enough to do, the car sometimes takes the longer turn (especially when I click in the bottom-left quarter of the stage), and it seems unnatural.

The bug is:
If you press left click and dont release it, and then press right click (contextual menu appears) and then left click again, the first "drag" action is never released.
Its like, I need to make that my right click says: "hey left click, your job is done, you can go home now".

I need to be able to know when a container is clicked and when a button on the container is clicked. I am loading a swf with buttons into a container sprite. If I add a click event to the container it does not get triggered when a button in the loaded swf is clicked. if I add mouseChildren false to the container the it gets triggered. What I need is both the button in the loaded swf to work as well as the click event on the container.

I have a movieclip with 2 layers (a background layer, and a text box layer), and i have an eventListener for clicking on it. The only problem is the function i call when clicking the MC only works when i click the background, if i click where the text box is in the MC the function doesnt get called?
Is there any way to treat the entire MC as a single entity rather than a layered one, or is there a way to specify which layer is to be clicked, and i can just add an invisible hit rectangle on a new layer in the MC.
