Actionscript 3.0 :: Disable Mouse Over Events For Combo Box Flash Component?
May 12, 2009
I need a way to disable the mouse over events for a combo box flash component as it is sitting inside a movieclip (A) on the stage, when I mouse over the movie clip I add a glow to a different mc (B) in the movie. Problem is is that the combo box is preventing the mouse over even in A to occur so B is not 'lighting up'.None of this works as it still appears to register a MouseOver event:
Code: Select allmyComboBox.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.textField.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.dropdown.focusEnabled = false;'s built in ones?
[code].....

I have SWF files that I load into my flash movie and those SWF files sometimes have mouse events that can interfere with dialogs and buttons in my flash movie. I'd like to temporarily disable the loaded SWFs mouse event handlers or block them from having any effects on my flash movie. My flash movie is AS 2.

I have a gradient that I'm using as a vignette over an entire flash scene. It is contained with a movie clip, and I'm trying to disable it, I'm trying mouseEnabled = false, and mouseChildren = false, but for some reason, it is obscuring the buttons below it still, when I set the visibility to false everthing is fine, but then I can't see it . .

I've been using this code to disable the mouse events on some movie clips when my swf first loads. Is there a way of doing these all in one hit as I have about 15 to do in each of seven movie clips.
walesPins_mc.pin12_mc.hitArea_mc.mouseEnabled = false;
walesPins_mc.pin13_mc.hitArea_mc.mouseEnabled = false;
walesPins_mc.pin14_mc.hitArea_mc.mouseEnabled = false;
Is there a way to say all children inside walesPins_mc mouseenabled = false?

I have an editable mx:Combobox. I want to catch two events: When a user enters some text, or edits some text.When a user changes the selection (selects an item from the combo box).Is it possible? I have been using change event, but it is fired in both cases and I can't differentiate it. Is there a better way of doing this?

I have built a Air 2/Flex 4 kiosk application with Flash Builder 4. Currently I am implementing a touch screen browser to enable users to navigate company training videos. In an attempt to improve the usability of the website on the touchscreen I have placed the HTML component in an adaption of Doug McCune's DragScrollingCanvas (updated to use the flex 4 'Scroller' component) to allow users to scroll the webpage by dragging their finger across the screen. The mouseDown event is used to start scrolling the viewport.
In addition the webpage was modified to disable text selection with the following css:
[Code]...
As an alternative I also tried adding a group container with the same dimensions as the HTMLLoader to detect the mouseDown events (so that the group container and HTMLLoader have the same Dragable parent container) and was able to capture mouseDown events and scroll the viewport as expected. However as the mouse event is handled by the group container, I am now unable to navigate the webpage.

I'm working on a flash project, the designer designs UI by Flash CS5 and export the UI as swc file, I use Flex to control the data on the UI.
The designer uses shapes for the UI design, it is easy for him to define the colors and background, but I need this shapes more like a component like Combo box, so I can display the data on those shapes.
Is there any easy way to covert shapes to combo box or the similar operations?

I have a combo box in my application. I also have a variable called "Status". I want the combo box to be enabled only when the value of the Status variable is 5 or 6. Otherwise, I should not be able to change the value in the combo box. It should have the previous value only.. I had written a click event to disable the combo box. But even though the combo box is disabled, I get the drop down list of the combo box, and If I select some othe value in the drop down,it changes..Only after that it gets disabled.

Right now all the sounds (78 of them) on my guitar play using the roll_over event but that doesn't give the user much control over what sound is played.
The actionscript im using to play my sounds is this;
for(var i:uint = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++){
buttonArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, buttonRolledOver);
}
[Code]....
What i want to do is only play a sound with the roll_over event when the left click is held down.

Just wanted to ask if there is any advantage for either using mouse click event or touch tap events, when writing apps for mobiles or tablets (for the iphone especially)?
I know that both of them should work fine, but in term of performance, is anyone better? Are there any things I should be aware of when choosing either?
By the way am using actionscript3 to implement the app.

I have an animation that I want to start when clicking on the flash window. However, I've also have some buttons on the stage. If I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK on the stage, then it 'eats up' the events and the buttons don't work.
I've tried some tricks, by adding some invisible buttons on top of the real ones, and use the MOUSE_OVER event to selectively enable/disable the mouseEnabled flag for the stage, but didn't work because it complains that the property or method doesn't exist (which I find odd).

I'm taking my first stab at writing a custom flex 4 component by extending the UIComponent class. Unfortunately, I cannot get the component to respond to any sort of mouse events.I've tried setting mouseEnabled to true is the component, as well as setting mouseChildren to true in the parent (the stage object). It seems whatever I do, my click events can be detected from the stage, but not with the component.Here is my component class:
package components {
import mx.core.UIComponent;
public class DrawCanvas extends UIComponent {

I have created a FLV video player using the AS3 flash.media.Video object (not the FLV playback component) and I am trying to listen for meta events and Cue Points embedded in the FLV video but I am not receiving any when I trace the movie. The cue points are not being created dynamically, they are in the FLV video.
Video embed code:
// Initialize net stream
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect (null); // Not using a media server.
[Code]....
Is there anything I am missing have wrong to capture events from my net stream?

i have a question about the mouse down / mouse move events in Flash. I've developed a small intreractive that requires mouse co-ordinates to be captured when the mouse is down and when the mouse is moved anywhere on the screen. It was working fine like this until recently when I checked my interactive in Safari and it no longer recieves mouse co-ordinate information when the mouse cursor leaves the Flash interactive stage area.However, it still works fine in Firefox. Is there anything I can do to get this functionality back when using it in Safari?

I have a flash shooter game and after a user shoots a bottle, i play the destroy animation and remove it from the screen. The problem is when the user click too fast, like superman fast it enters on the method twice, no matter what.
Here is the code:
public function bottleHasClicked(bottle : BottleBase) : void {
bottle.mouseEnabled = false;
collectedBottles++;
[Code]....
The first thing i do is to disable the object mouse, and it still happens. I only enable it when im gonna show the bottles again.

mycombo.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, added);
function added(e:Event):void

mycombo.setStyle("textFormat", tf);//suppose tf is a TextFormat object
doesn't work too, but if I put that line inside the MouseOver event it work's why??

I'm dynamically loading images and external swf on dynamic MC slides. (1 holder MC per image or swf) These MC serve as hit area and have several mouselisteners on them to give me the opportunity to drag and drop them, double click ...
I got no problem when loading images.
But as soon as I'm loading external swf onto these MC, I can't do anything anymore, it seems every listeners are disabled. (I know these swf are XML driven galleries with internal buttons but.....)
What can I do to oblige the external swf not to overwrite the listeners added on the MC parent?

I have a movie clip I am using as a button (instance name btn1) and I added an event listener to it (using the following line): btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, animate1); the function "animate1" triggers some small animation when the mouse is over the movieclip. my problem is that the animation is triggered both on mouse over and mouse out events.

It has been awhile since I have worked in flash.Right now I am working on something where I would like a panel to disappear when someone mouses off the stage.stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, leaveHandler); It usually works fine but if I move my mouse really fast it doesn't fire. I have also tried the same thing using a custom invisible button that surounds the perimeter of the stage and I have tried ROLL_OVER and MOUSE_OVERand again, if I do it too fast my event doesn't fire (I am using trace)I can't find anything on the net about this - is this typical of flash that if you move your mouse too fast you break it? Do I need to increase my frame rate (I would really rather not because I have perfectly timed animations - I am at 30 frames per second)

I have been trying to get this all day and all I want to do is when I roll over a button it disable the main button that is in its way. I am making a header and it has a button that is lit up and shows a screen but when I roll over another button I want to disable that buttons mouse events. Here is what I have(be aware what I am trying to disable is a movie clip within the button so that is not part of action script)
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick);
function onMouseClick(event: MouseEvent):void
{
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://msn.com");

I have a menu drawer at the edge of the screen that shows when the user rolls the mouse over it, but if the user overshoots it an moves the cursor slightly outside the browser window this is unfortunenatly registered as a mouse out.
I want to stop this by using event.MOUSE_LEAVE, but i need to use it as a condition not to triger a "leaveHandler".

I have a web site with an intro movie playing in the page's header.
The SWF playing the FLV with sound is in a division that is placed at a lower Z level. On top of the SWF, at a higher Z level, is a png image of my header containing an oval transparent window. This image acts as a skin sitting on top of my movie. The movie and sound play inside the oval window fine. I have other reasons for this approach as opposed to integrating the whole header image into the SWF.
The issue is I have no mouse control over the SWF because it is at a lower Z level. The mouse events are blocked by the transparent image window that sits on top.
I want to add a sound volume control to my movie. The control can sit either inside the oval area, or outside somewhere else on the page.
I would prefer to control the volume using another SWF that sits at the normal Z level where the mouse can work. Can one SWF control another?
Other alternatives might be to use Javascript, or even HTML image tags to control my SWF.
