ActionScript 3.0 :: Set A Keyboard Handler On The Frame?
Feb 13, 2009
In frame 1 I set a keyboard handler on the frame:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, moveRusty);
moveRusty() moves an icon back and forth when the arrow keys are pressed - very simple. From frame 1 Flash proceeds to frame 2 where the main action takes place - rusty moves just fine. When he reaches a certain point I gotoAndPlay frame 3 which sets rusty's visibility to false. A button in frame 3 has gotoAndPlay frame 2 where everything is reset and Rusty is free to move.
The problem is, Rusty stops moving when we go back to frame 2 from frame 3. I put in a trace statement into the keyboard handler and it never gets hit. Now the REALLY weird part is that if I move the focus from the flash window to any other window and back again, things start working. From then on, everything works fine until I go to frame 3 and then back to frame 2 via the button in frame 3.
What kind of behavior would Adobe build in so that keyboard handlers only worked after change focus away and then back?

Here's the code
public function onKeyPress( keyboardEvent:KeyboardEvent ):void {
if (keyboardEvent.keyCode == Keyboard.A) {
//DO MY STUFF NAO
}}
Error:
1119: Access of the possibly undefined property A through a reference with static type class.
When I put Keyboard.RIGHT or Keyboard.SHIFT etc. It works fine. I tried it with keyboard.Event.keyCode == 97 and such and it still didn't work.

How do you press a key (like "L") and go to the next frame?
Which event must I pick?
I assume it's something like: stage.addEventListener(Keyboard., but after that I don't know what to do.
This is for AS 3.0 by the way.

I have 2 scenes. In both scenes, I have a movie clip that moves via keyboard control. If the goto next scene is triggered by the movie clip in the first scene the keyboard control works in the second. However, if I use a button to move to the next scene then there isn't any control over the movieclip in that scene. I've traced the keyCode in the second scene and it is picked up but the switch statement doesn't run. I'm migrating to Actionscript 3.0 and updating something I created in 2.0. I would like to do it without writing a class.

I'm using an SWF handler to load my pages(MovieClips) into the Main Movie. I'm using Actionscript 2.0. My problem is when I click the button the swf is loaded into the handler but my actionscript is not executing its _x axis move.(graphics should slide in from the right), Here is the code I have applied to the sliding graphic:
//OLD SKOOL
xTargetOSM = 30;
OSM.onEnterFrame = function() {
[code]....
-this code works when the SWF is played alone, but fails when it is loaded into the SWF handler in my main movie.

I have been asked by a local web development company to code some flash banners for use with there banner ad site they are doing. I have been sent a banner to add the actionscript and also the actionscript as well. What I have is a fla doc with a button that covers the whole banner. Then on the banner I have this actionscript:-
this.masterButton_but.onRelease = function(){ if (root.Hyperlink != null){ getURL(root.Hyperlink); }else if(root.clickTag != null){ getURL(root.Hyperlink); }else{ getURL("http://www.greatrun.org/Events/Event.aspx?id=3"); } }
When I test it the compiler errors and says in the description "Statement must appear within on handler".

I am now using FancyUpload (flash upload) to allow user to upload files in a small project. I use Generic Handler to handler in server when user uploads his file, but I'm getting error:
Can't get session in Generic Handler (.ashx) when using Firefox or Chrome etc except IE
I read so many solution and finally found out that Flash has some bug that can't send cookie in Firefox or Chrome except IE. Maybe I can check the session in Flash before it's start to send the file to the server or check session in Generic Handler before save it, How to do it?

I have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.
I'm halfway to accomplishing this.
Here is what i used
Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){
[Code]....
The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.
Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.
However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".

I am trying to make a liquid gui layout (i think this is what it's called).Anyway, I have done part of this, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to position movieclips that aren't on the stage.These movieclips have linkage ID's and are being called when you click on a button.
Code:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);[code].........
The linkage ID name is: pageWeddings
When you click on the button "weddings", it loads "pageWeddings".I want to position this somehow.

I'm failing repeatedly when trying to get a navigation system to work. Breaking the code into more chewable chunks is my latest idea, but there is still a ticklish problem: I need to activate a handler in an swf I load with the loader class. I get a compiler error that says: Scene 1, Layer 'Layer 1', Frame 1, Line 63 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method MakeIt through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.

I would like to use variables in my flash app. The app is quite simple, has many buttons, and on each of those buttons I have a simple script: on-rollover and on-release. For both actions I use the same value, which I want to put in a variable. The following script results in an error message: Statement must appear within on handler. When I have to declare the variable inside the on-handler, I have to declare it twice, which makes it useless as I have to enter the value twice. How can I get this working?
country = "uk"
on (rollOver){ gotoAndPlay(country)}
on (release){ getURL("/"+country+"/", "_self");}

I want to extend my function to a better design to where I can pass a canvas object into so I don't have to write N functions.. I'm not sure as how to do this properly I've come up with a naive design with a switch but even then if I add another canvas I still need to write new code for the new canvas.
function fadeCanvasOut(event:TimerEvent):void

I'm trying to put a label and an image on a UIComponent, side-by-side. I want to use UIComponent for efficiency reasons, and the entire component is more complicated than just a button with an icon.
I'm trying to get a click handler on ther entire UIComponent so that when a click happens on either the label or the image, the same [click] event handler is called. If I add a click handler on the root component, it works, but when I introduce space between the label and the image, the space between them becomes un-clickable. I produce the space by using the move(x,y) method for the label and the image with a small gap between the x/y coordinates.

my flex application sends a few concurent requests on startup. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to fetch them all so I've set them requestTimeout param to 5 secs. Additionally, I've defined a method that handles fault events. I'd like to resend a request when timeout occurs.It doesn't work though. Could you take a look at the code?

We (AS3 coders) all know that one of the great things about the AS3 event model is that handlers are scoped to their containing objects. I'm writing an EventDispatcher for JavaScript, and trying to achieve the same effect.My question could be answered in a couple different ways:A: How does ActionScript 3 set scope within an event handler to the handler's container object, rather than to the event handler's caller (the IEventDispatcher on whom dispatchEvent() was invoked)?

I am just learning Flash. I'm using Flash CS4, However I am using Actionscript 1.0/2.0. I have a main page with just simple buttons, and such. My question is, I need to load a swf within my main page. I have a sqaure in the center of my page that I want to load a swf in. I made a rectangle using the rectangle tool, and converted the rectangle into a symbol so that actions may be placed within it. I want to load a file called News.swf within the rectangle. I can't find any code to do this that doesnt have compiler errors.
I found one code: News.loadMovie("News.swf"); when I put just that in the Actions field, and I export the movie I get the error: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
I just want to load News.swf in the actions tab within a symbol.
