ActionScript 3.0 :: Save The Mouse Coordinates Upon MouseClick?

May 20, 2011

I am making a game where when I click a movie clip on stage and the man will walk to that area. The man only moves one space when click, so it works if you continualy click the mouse. I just want to click the mouse 1 time and the character walks to that spot. Here is my code,

clickObject.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN ,record_Mouse);
function record_Mouse(event:MouseEvent):void {
var record_MouseX:Number= mouseX;[code]........

/*I tried a loop for these last two lines, but it did not work, maybe I am doing it wrong, or maybe there is another solution? I also tried to return the value of man.x and man.y into a ENTER_FRAME event which does not seem possible with AS3*/

man.x+=vx;
man.y+=vy;
}

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Trigger All MouseClick Events For Each Object Under The Mouse?

Sep 16, 2011

Let's assume i have a class MyDisplayObject extending a Sprite.

I have placed several instances of that class on the same place on the stage (they are not nested) and each of them have a mouseclick listener defined within the class.
What i want is, that if i click on that area, where these objects are, that each of them triggers the mouseclick event...by default only the topmost object triggers the event. I would prefer a solution that i can implement within my class MyDisplayObject instead of iterating all children on the stage and triggering each event manually.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Movie Clip To Save Coordinates?

Nov 28, 2009

what i am trying to do is create a game that works on the same bases as battle ships but the difference is that its just at a single grid size scale so basically you only have to hit 5 squares in the 8x8 square grid. The trouble i am having is that i have set it up as a movieclip and i cant seem to get it to same the positions on the side that i select on (named the players side) it works fine for the otherside and will hit the 'enemy squares' and you can win the game but never loose the game that the problem.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Save/Load Flash Based On X Y Coordinates Of Movie Clips?

Mar 12, 2010

I am developing a tool for analysis where you drag specific events onto a special wheel to analyze events based on time of day etc. I had a few users testing it and they asked for a save and load feature. I have done as much as I can at this point and am just growing confused. Can one of you experts take a look at my .fla and see what can be done...I think I am close but just can't figure it out. Also, if you can provide comments on cleaning up my code would be nice too.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mouse Coordinates In FF 3.6 On Mac OSX 10.6.3?

Jun 2, 2010

I have encountered really bad problem in one of our Flex projects. For some reason Flash can't get mouse coordinates properly. It returns something like (-107374182.4, -107374182.4) instead of good numbers. This happens when I'm using MOUSE_MOVE event in FF 3.6 on Mac OSX 10.6.3 with Flash Player 10. I have drag-n-drop in this projects, so with such ugly huge coords object goes far out of stage. Can't find solution in web, but there are some relative notes found...

For example, some info regarding 107374182.4 number can be found in internet.It seems 107374182.4 is something like NaN equivalent for some versions of Flash Player.Also I have found some notes regarding wrong mouse handling on Mac.The most interesting words there are: "on OSX it takes at least 1 frame to register the mouse's position". But it seems in my case it affects not only first frame after MOUSE_DOWN fired.Finally, there are movie on YouTube that demonstrates MOUSE_MOVE bug on FF/Mac.

I have tried:

- to get MouseEvent.stageX, MouseEvent.stageY (problem encountered);

- to get DisplayObject.root.mouseX, DisplayObject.root.mouseY (problem still appear, coordinates are bad);

- to use startDrag, stopDrag (it looks bugged too);

- to embed SWF into HTML with different wmode values.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mouse Coordinates In An If Statement?

Sep 29, 2011

how to put mouse coordinates into an if statement, but as an 'if more than' but also 'if less than'. Something like:

Code:
if (mouseX > 190, but also <210) {
//do something
}

Is it possible to also do a similar thing to also include the Y position, to create a box of some sorts based on mouse position?
Something like:

Code:
if (mouseX > 190, but also < 210, mouseY > 20, but also < 100) {
//do something
}

I think it may have something to with setting each position as a var and pushing them into an array, but I can't get my head around it.

Flex :: Obtain Item For Mouse X/y Coordinates?

Nov 24, 2009

my mission is to select an item in a DataGrid instance with nothing but the coordinates on screen.

We are implementing right-click functionality in our Flash application, with the goal of being able to right-click a DG row, which would select that row plus show a popup window containing some context commands.

I have managed to get the right click event into my Flex app with the help of this site.

Further progress so far has been to obtain the DataGrid instance via

var objects : Array = this.getObjectsUnderPoint(new Point(this.mouseX, this.mouseY));

and then to investige each of the array's items, for one of those 'parent.parentList' refers to the DataGrid instance.

I couldn't find any point-to-item converter function or anything.

PS: Using the standard Flash ContextMenu is, unfortunately, not an option.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Tracking Mouse Coordinates Into Array

Mar 9, 2004

I've been reading through all the various threads related to the drawing API and saving drawings. About a hundred times I've seen mention of "log mouse positions into an array" and stuff like that, but I can't find any clear and simple examples of how to do this. Let's take a very simple use of the drawing object to do freeform drawing. What is the AS to capture the mouse XYs as the user draws and put that into an array. I can't figure out how to get Flash to keep updating things as I go, it invariably grabs the fist point and that's it.

Let's use the most basic drawing example I can find:
[AS]_root.createEmptyMovieClip("line",1);
_root.onMouseDown = function(){
line.moveTo(_xmouse,_ymouse);
line.lineStyle(0,0x000000,100);
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
line.lineTo(_xmouse,_ymouse);
}}
_root.onMouseUp = function(){
this.onEnterFrame = null;
}[/AS]

Where/what gets added to just capture all those _xmouse and _ymouse?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Updating Mouse Coordinates Inside Loops?

Aug 31, 2011

I'm figuring out a way to update my mouse x and y inside a loop. In this small test block, I'm tracing the mouseX and mouseY twice. The first one is outside a loop. The second one is inside a loop.

When I test the SWF, you can see that the first trace changes constantly and seamlessly. But when you hold your mouse down, the code starts tracing the 2nd trace. Even though the mouse is down and moving, the mouseX and mouseY traced is not changing.

Actionscript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;import flash.events.Event;var mouseIsUp:Boolean = true;stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDown);stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,

[Code]....

Closely related to the main question, when you click the stage, you would get 100 lines of the 2nd trace. Is there a way to break the loop as soon as the mouse is up?

Actionscript 3 :: Mouse - Local X And Y Coordinates Of Display Object?

May 27, 2010

i'm trying to trace the x and y coordinates from within a sprite. i've added a rectangle to the stage:

var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 200, 200);
addChild(rect);
rect.x = rect.y = 100;

adding a Mouse_Move event to the rect, i can trace mouseX and mouseY to receive the coordinates of the stage while moving over the rect, but how do i get the local x and y coordinates? so if i mouse over the very top left of the rect sprite, the mouseX and mouseY return 10 as the global coordinates, but how do i make it return 0 and the local coordinates of the sprite?

i assumed localX and localY was what i was looking for, but this doesn't work:

function mouseOverTraceCoords(evt:MouseEvent):void
{
trace(mouseX, mouseY, evt.localX, evt.localY);
}

Flex :: Display A Tooltip Only If The Mouse Cursor Is Within Certain Coordinates?

Feb 24, 2011

Within my component, I'm drawing some rectangles as below:

[Code]...

I need to display a custom tooltip for each rectange when the mouse cursor is hovering over it.

How can I do this? I'm using the MouseMove event to track when the cursor moves over these coordinates (that part is working), but when I change the tooltip text it's not refreshing

private function this_MOUSE_MOVE(event:MouseEvent):void

[code]...

EDIT: The problem seems to be with the following line:

ToolTipManager.destroyToolTip(_myToolTip);


If I comment out the preceding line, it will display the new tooltip, but it will keep creating new ones and the old ones never get removed. But if I add that line, it doesn't add any tooltips! Is the code not being executed sequentially, i.e., is the code to remove the tooltip somehow getting executed after the code to add the tooltip?

ActionScript 3 :: Inaccurate Mouse Coordinates Of Display Object?

Jul 29, 2011

When tracing the mouseX / mouseY or localX / localY coordinates of a display object, why does x start at 1 while y starts at 0? For example, I've drawn a simple 400 x 400 pixel sprite onto the stage with a MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE event listener that calls a handler function to trace the local coordinates of the mouse. The first, top-left pixel returns {x:1, y:0} and the last, bottom-right pixel returns {x:400, y:399}. Shouldn't both the x and y start and end with the same value? I'm not sure which makes more sense for a the first mouse coordinate (either 0 or 1) but it certainly doesn't make sense that they are different?

[SWF(width = "1000", height = "600", backgroundColor = "0xCCCCCC")]
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var darkBlueRect:Sprite = createSprite();
darkBlueRect.x = 23;

I don't know how to track the coordinates of the mouse.

What other method I should use so that I can check the coordinate of my mouse or finger movement on the flash platform?

Professional :: Advanced Masking - Top Two Layers To Be Able To Follow The Same Mouse X/y Coordinates?

Jun 30, 2010

how to make it work.I have 3 layers.

1. top layer is an image of a cell phone with a blank screen (where I'd like the mask to be utilized)

2. the mask... which is paired with the cell phone image above.

3. the main/maskable image, which is only revealed by the cell phone's screen.

4. the very bottom image, visible all the time.
 
I need the base layer image (#3) to be static, and I need the top two layers to be able to follow the same mouse x/y coordinates.  So far, I've only known how to have the mask and the masked image be one together, rather than be able to move the mask independently of the image I want to mask.
