ActionScript 1/2 :: Using Event Listener To Trigger Text
Feb 2, 2012I am using the following code to create the quick word for a translator who is doing a live translation of a chat.
[CODE]...
the word is succesfully generated, only problem is, it deletes all the other text in the text box as well. Is there a way of making a keyboard shortcut which just adds that text on the same row I am on? Otherwise I am also happy to settle for a button which generates this text as long as it does not delete the other text in the text box.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Trigger Fade Tween Event Listener?
Jul 30, 2009Here's how I'd like events to unfold:when the first image is completely downloaded, fade it up and start the timer After 5 seconds, pause the timer and completely download the next image. Fade it up and start the timer again Remove the previous image from the stage
I set my fade's alpha to .5 to see if the previous image was being removed, and it was not. What is wrong with my syntax?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Key Listener To Trigger Login Function Once?
Aug 3, 2007I am using the following key listener to trigger a login function:
code:
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.ENTER)) {
login();
}}
Key.addListener(keyListener);
However this triggers the login function twice, which causes the user to get a error saying they are already logged in. I have a button on the stage which triggers the same function.
code:
login_btn.onRelease = login;
And this works fine. How I can ensure that the keylistener only triggers the login function once?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Which Listener Should Be Added To Text Field To Trigger The Change Event

In this type of situation where we are not using keyboard, which listener should be added to text field to trigger the change event?

View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Removing An Event Listener From A Function?
Mar 15, 2010I am working on a game for my university project and I have run into a bit of trouble. I have the following code here:
function launchBall() {
this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN ,launchBallHandler);
function launchBallHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (e.keyCode==32) {
[Code].....
Its set up so that when a ball goes off screen, it resets to a coordinate and launchBall is called.
LaunchBall then adds the event listener to see when the Space key is pressed and that starts the ball moving again. The problem I have now is I cant seem to get rid of that eventListener. I have tried removeEventListener and that doesn't seem to work. I have tried:
if (ball.xVel>0 && ball.yVel>0) {
removeEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,launchB allHandler);
just below that code and that doesn't work either. It's not spitting any errors out at me but I am completely stumped.
Listener Not Calling Function For Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE?
Jan 10, 2011I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:

I cant because it runs off a VideoEvent, not a MouseEvent.The obvious work around is to copy and paste the function and rename this part, or alternativly just make a function such as:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Call On Function
Jul 5, 2011The keyBoard event listeners call on the rotate and unrotate functions and based on the key inputs(A and D) will implement either of the functions and rotate the image or return it to the original upright position. However, I haven't been able to get the function to work. When I press the A or D keys on the keyboard nothing happens. I even put trace() in one of the functions to see if the function will even be implemented but I don't get anything. I put in my Scripts below. Why are the functions not working? Do the eventlisteners fire or are there conflicts? I'm not getting any error messages.
ti.border = true
ti.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onInput);
function onInput(event:TextEvent):void {
if(ti.text.search('a')!=-1) load_image("http://i54.tinypic.com/anom5d.png", "ottefct");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Calling Function With Event Listener Attached To Button
Jul 26, 2011I have a situation where I'm calling a function with an event listener attached to a button, which in turn calls a function, which does a number things including calling a second function which resides in a child swf.
Just as an example:
Code:
myBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, firstFunction);
function firstFunction(e:MouseEvent):void{
//I call another function in here (among other things)
externalSwf.stopTimer();
}
"StopTimer" resides in an external swf which for our purposes is called externalSwf and it resets a running timer.
Code:
function stopTimer():void{
myTimer.reset();
}
I'm getting argument mismatch errors, which often have to do with the Event Objects not matching. The event object for firstFunction is a mouse event triggered by a click so I put in e:MouseEvent...what I don't clearly understand is, what type of object event is dispatched when I call the function stopTimer from inside the function firstFunction?
