ActionScript 3.0 :: Toggle Keypress Requires It's Own Individual Boolean Value To Prevent Interfering With The Others?
Jan 19, 2012
I'm currently using senocular's KeyObject class and using a boolean to store the toggle. Is there a more efficient way of doing this as each toggle keypress requires it's own individual boolean value to prevent interfering with the others.
Code:
var valve1:Boolean = false;
var valve2:Boolean = false;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, checkKeys);
I have a few swf's that are loaded into a base file using levels. These clips can be cycled through by means of a setInterval function or when the user clicks the next or previous button. However, when the user hovers over a defined 'hit' area which is ultimately a blank movie clip, the setTimeout call is then canceled. This works fine, except that now the 'hit' clip - being above everything - prevents the movies below accepting hit states, and if I move it to below everything else, when one mouses over any element in the loaded movie, it then acts as though the user has mouse out of the hit area.
Is there any way to have this 'hit' clip do its job simply by determining if the mouse is over it, but without using an onRollOver function or equivalent?
I would like to toggle my boolean value when I click my button. My boolean var looks like this: var playAllOn:Boolean = false; Then I have a button that calls a function to set the playAllOn to the boolean value it currently is not. So, if for example if playAllOn is false, I would like to call:
[Code]....
I know I could do this with an ifStatement in the myToggleBtn.onRelease, but am wondering if there is a better more efficient way to write this. Something like setPlayAllBtn(!= playAllOn); <!-- Obviously that one does not work...
I'm new to flash and just need to do a simple task but I can't manage to get it to work. I'm trying to import a video (flv) into a SWF container and need to AS functions which should be exposed to JS (using liveconnect or anything else). These two function should toggle sound on/off and toggle play/pause. I dont need any user interface or a full featured player, just these two functions.
I've gotten as far as getting a listbox with a list of articles to display the articles in a dynamic text box, only i can only get it to work if i use one huge external text file that contains all the articles. what i want is to have each item on the list open up its own external text file, i.e. for each item on the list, there exists a separate text file. I'm about ready to put my fist through the monitor, and that would suck because this is a really nice monitor
I've got a .swf that loads .flv's from a separate directory and we want to put it on our company website.
I've tested it online with the .swf in a simple html table and the .flv's load fine.
But when our developer puts them into a .php page for the website, the .flv's don't load at all. He swears the .flv's are in the right location and we are stumped as to why they don't load. Is it possible there's a conflict somewhere in this scenario? I don't know php so I can't troubleshoot it properly.
I'm encountering a strange problem with using Fullscreen mode. Basically I want the whole piece to become fullscreen, but because there is an flv active within the page the flv is taking over the fullscreen instead of the whole piece. Is there any way to stop it from doing this?I'm applying it like this:switch(FS_STATUS){ case false: stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN; FS_STATUS = true; break; case true: stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL; FS_STATUS = false; break; default: break; }If the flv is there it causes the flv to go fullscreen instead of the whole thing, frustrating!
I have this problem where the scrollbar interferes with loadClip. Anyway, I am looking for possible bugs between FF browser scrollbar and loadclip. If I don't use the scrollbar the loadClip works fine, but if I load some images using loadclip and scroll the browser right after in between calling them and them actually appearing the loadclip fails.
We are building a project in Flash Builder 4(flex) and to optimize on screen space, looking to move some display content to a separate window, while the animation runs
We cannot use a pop-up as it takes control and will not allow anything else to be viewed till it is closed. Any way we can create a"read only" window that can be moved around but does not prevent the base animation from running.
I have a main flash movie, which I'm using to display various other smaller swf's.All the SWF's including the main one are set to flash player 8, action script 2.Script used is:loadMovie("swf/movies/moviename.swf", "p2");This is loading the swf into a correctly sized and placed movieclip with instance name "p2"This all works perfectly well apart from one particular swf. It has various script in it that seem to be interfering with the timeline of my main movie. Causing it to start playing, when it should be stopped etc. It seems to cycle through all the other keyframes until it gets back to keyframe that it sits on.
Is there a way of making sure none of the script within the loaded SWF will effect the main movie that it's loaded into?I tried usingthis._lockroot=trueon the 1st frames of the SWF's to be loaded, and also on the 1st frame of the main movie, but it does not work.I also tried loading to various levels, with no luck.Something in the externally loaded SWF's is causing the main movie timeline to go crazy. I guess either the interval timer or the endcount.Here's some of the code from the external swf thats being loaded into the container:
I have a simple Flash movie, and have used AS3 to allow users to hit the up arrow and go to a certain frame, then hit the right arrow to go to another specific frame. My problem is the minute I put in "stop();" in the script so my movie stops on frame 1, the keyboard controls do not work unless I double-click the playing video. The minute I remove the stop command from my actionscript, the keyboard controls work perfectly...but my movie obviously starts playing which I do not want.
I need both the stop command AND the keyboard controls, and am at a loss.
I have bought a gallery template that allows me to place content within external SWFs.I have a series of buttons within the SWF templates. The problem is that the buttons are interefering with the main timeline when hit. How would I fix this.
Currently they read: on (release) { _root.gotoAndStop(1);
i have a sound object that i created with fade in and out functions. but when i use the fade out function i created called "stopSound" it seems to stop all sound so that when my FLV player goes to play the movie it has no sound but still plays the FLV. Here's my code. Can someone please help me figure out why calling this function is turning off the sound in my flv player instead of just the sound object "music" that i created.
I have created a world map that has each region of the world as a rollover. When you rollover the US, for example, it turns red and a movieclip pops out to display some info...it's basically a graphic I created in Illustrator that is a rectangle with info written on it.
The rollover works fine and everything pops out, but when you move the cursor close to the popout, it thinks you have rolled off the US. When you hit the edge it pops in and out almost like it is blinking.
How can I make it so that they are one hit area? Here is some of the code:
This fades all my objects so on and so forth. I have a movie that is loaded into the _root, inside that is an mc called photos, jpgs are loaded into here and faded in. This photos being loaded in thing is based off some other code written by ... I can't remember I was looking to save time Anyway, thats like so.
I am working on a UI that makes heavy use of the Tweener class, and which also loads an external .swf that I believe also uses the Tweener class.
After tracking down all kinds of buggy behavior, I'm thinking that the problem is that the loaded .swf is making calls to Tweener.removeAllTweens() *(This is just an assumption) and stopping other tweens that are happening in my UI.
Is this possible, and if so, is it possible to isolate the two versions of the Tweener class so that they don't reference the same object?
I have been doing tests to make sure my interactive cd works correctly on all computers, however, I have run into a problem with the Flash Mac Projector. It seems that on one mac the file requires unziping before being used? On another mac the computer cannot open it, simply ignoring clicks on the file.I am publishing the file on a pc, and the winzip icon appears next to the mac .hqx projector file, would this create a problem?
I am totally new to this coding stuff, and I have a project that I'm working on [URL]i get this message when I try to view the site. I have the .js file that is named the same in the same folder as the index.html page but i get nothing. The folder its in is an add-on site, does that have anything to do with why it isnt working

I have a swf file-A which requires to key in a password. Can I open this swf file-A with another swf with the password already set in, or open with another software?
I'm currently working on a project which requires me to pause the timeline, without pause being selected manually, and then play again with a button being pressed.
import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.events.Event; var mouseWheel_mc:MouseWheel_mc = new MouseWheel_mc(); var over:Boolean=true; addChild(mouseWheel_mc);
[Code]...
there is a MovieClip named mouseWheel_mc which is being called at runtime from the library with 30 frames in it, sequential animation frames.I would like the MouseWheel motion to play these frames forward or backward depending on which direction the mousewheel is being pulled or pushed.
Everything works just fine, but the problem is that the event won't start until you actually click in the SWF window (inside). I thought I could remedy that by using an Event.INIT or Event.ACTIVATE call but neither of those remedy the situation.
How can I get the event to fire once the SWF is in the browser without having to first click within the SWF?
I've noticed in testing a problem whereby Flowplayer will not play any content without a internet connection. All the files which make up my project are stored locally, and I've gone through and checked all the paths to make sure nothing points outwards towards the internet.
Curiously if I pull the internet connection out before the web page loads, the video file fails to load, however installing a loopback adapter gets around this. How can I alleviate this problem?
For proofs sake I've loaded the page in chrome looked at the network activity;
I have an RSS feed that I need to read, but you need to log in with a valid username and password to get the feed. I was wondering if or how to do this using Actionscript 3.
Right now I have a very simple script that just gets the xml from a provided url and outputs the xml to the console. I've verified that it works with a feed that doesn't require authentication.
I have an XML loader which loads data into my project, Then i modify the data and save it using PHP. (I can see that the XML data has changed) Then i restart the app by going to the URL again, And reload but the data stays unchanged untill i reboot IE. Why does this happen? do i have to release the XML file or something? That it now reread from memory?
I have a project I'm working on that requires one of three modules to load randomly, but then play in order in rotation. So I've set up a timeline with labels to jump from one to the next in sequential order. What I am trying to do is after the preloader loads, the timeline would randomly jump to one of those three locations on the main timeline, specified by a label.
Does anyone know of a tutorial or script that might point me in the right direction?
