I was wondering what a best practice is to capte a word.For example if someone types in 'hello' then a function should be initialized.
Should i push every letter that is pressed in an Array? and check on every keydown if the word is in the array?Or is it better to use a string and add a letter to this string en look in it to see if there is a match?
when I use this code I got some following errors Warning: 1090: Migration issue: The onKeyDown event handler is not triggered automatically by Flash Player at run time in ActionScript 3.0. You must first register this handler for the event using addEventListener ( 'keyDown', callback_handler).
How do I get rid of it?
I am trying to proven the default functionality of the Android home screen button but the KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP event does not fire when the home key is pressed the the tablet i have.eee transformer prime) Is there another why to detect and stop this functionality?
Here is the code that i am trying to user
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
// Add the hardware key event handlers to the stage.
protected function appCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void {

i have this code:
Code:

function handleKeyDown(e:KeyboardEvent) {
trace("click");

when i play it in flasplayer go well...if i put the swf in a html page not respond to key event...
I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?
create the word which changing many time and in the end become a clear word like what's happend exactly in horizintal menu in [URL] That's what i wanted the changing in words like that menu?
View 3 RepliesOk so If I load a list of like 2000 words from a text file into a text box like this
ActionScript Code:
var url:String = "dictionaries/"aa.txt";
var loadit:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loadit.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);

how could I randomly choose a word from the list and have it as a variable
I'm not really sure why, but whenever I press and hold any of the arrow keys(haven't tested other keys). My instance called player has it's x coordinate increased by 5 as my code indicates, but while holding down any of the arrow keys there is a split second pause before the continued movement of my player instance.

I have a flash file that import a .as with a class in it.In the imported class I catch keyboard press with
Code: Select allst.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyPush);
where 'st' is the stage that I retrive using
Code: Select allst=parent.parent;
If I try my swf as is it's functions correctly, BUT if I try to follow the gotoAndLearn Preloader [URL]my flash file is loaded by the preloader swf correctly but the catching of key press doesn't function. why the loaded file doesn't catch the keyboard press?I have to add the key_down listener to another object? (I've also tried with 'this.' but it doesn't work)
I haven't used AS in a while so I am trying to relearn it. I am trying to add an event listener to this sprite I created called Ball. I have a child of the Ball class in created in the Main class, so it seems like it should work. But whenever I press a key nothing happens.Main class:

changing the behavior of Key_down event. in every tutorial if for example you keep left arrow pressed you object will move to the left for i.e 5pix all the time,constant speed. can you change the key_down so it will only move once no matter how long the key is pressed, after you release it and press again it will only move one time again and so on
View 2 RepliesWith the KEY_DOWN event handler, if the user holds the key down it fires the event constantly. I want to create a KEY_DOWN event which only fires once on the initial key press, even if the user holds the key down.
View 2 Repliesis 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.
View 3 Repliessystem to browse offline howeverthis doesn't work correctly for any less then ActionScript 3. Whenyou highlighted a word in the past such as "null" it use to pull upthe word and the info in all the books. Now all I see is a webbrowser that doesn't do this for me.

View 10 RepliesI develop failover fms application with server-side action script. But i have a problem that FMS can't continue to record stream with record mode "append".
Environment: FMS 4.5.1 r484 on CentOS 5.5/6.0
Goals:
I have 2 same data streams in failover application and republish primary to livepkgr application.
I have to store of last 10 hours intact recorded video (DVR).
Failover app logic:
1. I create NetConnection and NetStream to livepackager;
2. When primary stream is connected it attach the primary stream to livePackager NetStream
3. If primary stream is disconnected it reattach the backup stream to livePackager NetStream
Problem: I have testing environment. It stop primary stream every 5 min, and started primary stream 5 min after stopping.
It work's, fine, but after a few hours testing LIVEPACKAGER falls. It can't record a stream, NetStream.Record.Start -> NetStream.Record.NoAccess -> NetStream.Record.Stop
Search a solution: I try to relaunch recording process and have no success. try to shutdown/start livepackager, it's same, try to restart server, same no success.
I cant stream.clear() or record with mode "record" cause it clears my dvr cache, I cant clean stream directory in livepackager application.

I'm a Flash newbie and I'm trying to get some keyboard action going. I've followed some tutorials, but nothing seems to work. To test it I created a brand new fla file and added the following code in the first frame:
[Code]...
The first trace ("Add listener") shows up in the debug output, but no matter which keys I press I can't get the function to be called. Am I doing it wrong?
Alright I'm new to Keyboard event listeners so I might be making a really obvious mistake that I don't know about. But what I want to do is, when someone types the letters for the word 'BROTHER', then it appears on the screen and it moves to the next frame. Here's the code I have atm I currently have the letters for 'BROTHER' each as a movie clip. The instance names are, RKey, OKey, etc.

Now, is this the only mistake in my thing? Or are there more mistakes? How do I fix it?
I have an error on my KeyboardEvent and I can't find what the problem is. The file of my class is mc_boog.as and when I compile it returns me this error: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: KeyboardEvent.
View 2 RepliesI 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);
function slide_right(e:MouseEvent):void {

I'm trying to add a KeyBoard event in addition to the MouseEvent I already have for my function. So I set up the following code to handle that but it's giving me 1136 errors looking for an argument inside the parenthesis when in reality, it doesn't need one.
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyPressed);
function onKeyPressed(evt:KeyboardEvent):void {
switch (evt.keyCode) {

I'm using very basic code to move an object around the stage using keys on the keyboard (W,A,S,D). However, I have noticed at times when the CPU hiccups, flash does not register that a key was released and in turn my object keeps moving in a direction without any keys pressed. The only way to stop the object from moving is to press the key corresponding to the direction the object is moving.
View 9 RepliesI had a problem with KeyboardEvent in ActionScript 3.0,I created a simple shooting game, the game has 2 Frame,
1. Title Game (Frame 1)
2. Game Playing (Frame 2)
The problem is in Frame 1 when Button is clicked playinggame then switched Frame to Frame 2 where the game takes place where the user can move the aircraft by using the keyboard, (Left Arrow, Up Arrow, Right Arrow & Down Arrow).But when a keyboard button is pressed, KeyboardEvent not react at all, and aircraft can not be controlled.Even more bizarre when the stage at the click KeyboardEvent can react and aircraft can be controlled.how to keep the button is clicked playinggame in Frame and the Frame 2, the aircraft can still be controlled using the keyboard [URL]

I made a login (textfield and a button).
mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,loginCheck); // This is my button
function loginCheck(event:MouseEvent):void { // My function code here

In order to make login using Enter button, I tried adding:

But of course it won't works because loginCheck is a MouseEvent function.
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.
I'm new to ActionScript development and am using the FlashDevelop IDE. I've been playing around with some really simplistic things and have come across a problem I can't seem to solve.My application compiles and runs, and a function that watches click events fires perfectly and I can see the event in the console when I pass it to trace(), yet the same code watching for KeyboardEvent fails to fire at all.Here's my code:
package GameTesting
{
import flash.display.Bitmap;[code]............
The MouseEvent trace() fires every time as expected, but KeyboardEvent never fires, no matter what key I press.
I created a Paddle class that doesn't do anything yet. However, I don't think it is working.[code]...
