Arrow Up / Down Default Behaviour In A TextField
Jun 19, 2009
I am making a input field for keywords, and while the users writing I'm displaying suggestions for keyword on a list underneath the caret position.The input field is single line, so I am using the arrow up/down key to select a suggestion and Enter to insert it.And it's mostly working, with the big exception that the up/down key also changes the caret position to the begining/ending of the TextField.
I've tried using preventDefault() and stopImmediatePropagation() in the KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN event listener that I also use to change the selected suggestion, but that does not change anything.I checked the carret has not yet moved when KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN event is fired, bu visually I can see that it is being move before key is released (key up).

The default behavior for textfield, when up arrow is pressed is, the cursor goes to the beginning or first character. I would like to disable this and add custom behavior when up arrow is pressed. I am able to add the custom behavior but I am not able to stop the default behavior.

I'm in serious fight with it. I need to set the defaultTextFormat of a TextField component to my own values. I can't do that since the component does not use the defaultTextFormat if it has it is already using the format from CSS stylesheet as said here [URL]
Note: You can't set this property if a style sheet is applied to the text field.
My question is: is there a way to remove the CSS propertis of the text field? How could I "override" this style sheet ??
I want be able to do that without overwrite the CSS file or write my own.

Textfields currently do not dispatch paste events. When the user is using keyboard shortcuts to paste, there's a way to workaround that shortcoming by listening to various keyboard events in the textfield. Is there a way to detect the paste event when it is originated from a click on the ContextMenu?

So, I've been working on this for a few days and what drives me nuts is this is a simple file with a lot of simple script and I still can't figure out what this error is and how to fix it: Property 0 not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value The script below what we're looking at, everything is drawn with AS3, there are no library objects (save for the font). I sort of understand what the error is saying, but I don't fully understand it or how to fix it.

Edit: I've searched through similar problems, but couldn't find a proper solution.

I have a textField, which has font face to "Arial", its dynamic. It also takes htmlText.
I am using XML to send data to the textFiled. My problem is that I want an arrow "→" in the textField. I have tried embedding "Symbol" font in the swf containing textField but its showing a Register sign. I'm really stuck with this,

I have a flash component written in flex which reads a xml file and shows up its data. This works fine in IE and Chrome, but not in Firefox.When i used fiddler to check for the problem, it started working fine.And now i have come to the conclusion that when fillder is running in the background and i access the flash component it works fine (reads all the xml data and shows it up), but when i close fiddler and do the same....i get the following error, "Error reading {myfilename} file."

I am trying to load external SWFs in my Adobe AIR App. The loaded SWF is trying to access an URL to retrieve some informations via XML. When starting the SWF by itself it works fine. When loading the SWF from the File.applicationStorageDirectory i will get an Security-Error because the loaded App is executed in a local-with-filesystem Sandbox appareantly. First Question: Is there a way to change this? That the loaded SWF is running in a network Sandbox?
Since that first attempt didn't worked i've moved the SWF to the app:// directory.Now i'll get a Security-Error because there is no policy file on the Server available where the XML data should be retrieved. Second Question: Why is the policy file not necessary when running the SWF by itself, but is necessary when trying to load the data from the application Sandbox? What am i doing wrong?

I've faced such situation. I've used to program in C#, and such code:
[Code]...
was asking both, condition1 and condition2 to be true (the case when they both are giving false and the end-result is true, could be achieved in other way). In Flex, same code would perform "some actions" if the both conditions are false. I just was wondering if is there any chance to make it break after finding first false in a queue, or I have no choice and should write nested if's?

I have several two-sided ecards made with Papervision and TweenLite to flip them over.A couple of days ago the "flip" animation changed behaviour. This is in ecards I made several months ago. The ecards work OK but the PPV object is not positioned correctly.On the server, in IE the object is displaced to right and down by about 20 px. In FF it is displaced to up and left by about 10 px.In Chrome and Safari the display is OK.(Just to confuse you further, the display in FF is OK on my localhost).This effect seems to be local to my PC.
I have scanned for malware etc twice but nothing. I have the latest Flash player and browsers.

How does one adjust the seek behaviour of an FLV in playback? youtube videos work the way I expect them to: As you click and drag the seek bar it shows you the current frame. Any of the players I have experimented with don't do this. What they do is show you a still frame and update the video window only after you release the seek bar.

I'm currently dealing with a very annoying problem, for which I can't find any solution, because - as I think - it does not result from a AS coding mistake but more or less has to do with the rendering of the swf.I am generating a seamless tileable stripe out of a few symbols. Then I am creating an endless animation that scrolls that stripe up. The scrolling is implemented as follows: I'm creating a second BitmapData of 500pxl height, that with every frame scrolls all its pixels 10 pixels downwards and then copies the 10 "missing" pixels at the top from the appropriate position of the prepared seamless tileable stripe.
During the animation there seems to be (at least on less performant systems) some kind of flickering (stripes tthat look like the animation wouldn't use a seamless tileable stripe - ALTHOUGH IT DEFINITLY DOES!!!)...The only guess I have - that it could result from a unsynchronized rendering of the swf..To the right you see a section of the prepared seamless tileable stripe from which these 10 pxl sections are copied.

working through the tutorial to familiarise myself with basic terms and concepts. I have been working through the behaviours section, assigning behaviours to the video buttons in the example. I've done the play and pause, but when I try to assign a behaviour to the rewind button, there is no rewind behaviour listed in the embedded video section of the add behaviours function. I am using education version 7.2.

I'm working on my first button and, instead of making simple symbol buttons, I chose to make some complex stuf like animations for the rollover, rollout and click state. I've been following some tutorials on this of course, and I've completed my first button. The problem is that I'm getting weird erratic behaviour because of this Text (TLF) layer I've got (I animated color and size) in a classic tween.if I delete the layer, everything works great. I can't figure it out!

No matter what I do, my transitions won't work as expected. I'll explain the issues and then place the code at the bottom. There are 4 States in my application.
goButton is present only in "State1" and "State2". State1 and State2 are nearly the same, but the y property of the goButton is diffrent in each. So I've made a little transition that moves the Button back and forth. Good so far.
However, both "State1" and "State2" can also be Transitioned to "State3". But there's no goButton in "State3", so I've used the <s:Fade> and the <s:RemoveAction> effects to get rid of it.

just wondering if there is a script that could let me change the way that a movie clip behaves, for example, I have movie clip "a" and in a certain frame I have the function;
a.onRollOver = function (){
gotoAndPlay ("that");
}
can I later have a script that removes the onRollOver property so that the movie clip is once again JUST a movie clip and not a movie clip button?

I'm using BulkLoader to load in images, SWFs, XML, etc into a game. When working local, the content property on the LoadingItem is always good depending on the type of asset: Bitmap if it's an image, MovieClip if it's a SWF etc. When I test the same swf, but under localhost, or online, the content property is always a Loader object. Is this normal? Am I missing out a parameter or something?

I'm getting nuts on a really weird problem using colorTransform.See hereThere is an parent_mc that contains several child_mcs. I use colorTransform to change the color of either one or more child_mcs or the complete parent_mc.When you change the color for the parent_mc like this:
Code:
trans = new Transform( parent_mc )
colorTrans.rgb = colorOut;

I have a movie clip button which I have created to provide me with colour tween. An "up" label for the upstate, "over" for the over state (colour tween) and then an "out" label where I have the colour tween back to normal. This all works fine except if i place an action on that button in the timeline, e.g.-
myBtn_mc.onRelease = function(){loadMovieNum("swf/movie.swf", 99);}
explain why this behaviour on my movie clip button won't work if an action such as this is placed on it ? (no tween just the up state colour)

I created a custom layout for a list, to be used on a mobile (android). I used this as example : [URL], using virtualization. Now the problem I have is with scrolling : when scrolling to the bottom of the list, there seems to be always a "bounce back", as if the list would have reached and as if the bounce/pull effect is taking place. But in fact the list has not reached the end at all, in fact I can not even scroll to the last element in the list. When going back from bottom to top, there's no problem at all.
I trace the top and bottom of the Scrolling Rectangle (Rectangle.getScrollRect) and there I can see that when scrolling down, the top and bottom parameters increase, but when releasing the touchscreen, all of a sudden the parameters decrease again with a certain amount, and so never reaching the end of the list. All my code is available on google project hosting : [URL]

I have created a movie clip called mc_Border comprising of a rectangular border and an empty movie clip called mc_SpriteContainer.I am trying to dynamically add a sprite to mc_SpriteContainer.Everything works fine until I drag the mc_Border.mc_Border behaves as it should but the sprite remains in position when mc_Border is dragged.I know this can be solved by adding a line to move the mc_SpriteContainer, but I thought that as it has been added to a MovieClip, its position should remain relative to the movie clip.Just wondering if I'm missing something. Below is the code that I am using to add the MC and the Sprite to the stage.[code]

I'm trying to make a custom button in flash, which when clicked, will open a URL in a new tab/window, WITHOUT stealing focus from the current Flash tab/window.
The classic navigateToURL(request, "_blank"); will open the new tab, but also bring it up. I want it to stay away minding it's own business, just as if I had middle-clicked on a link on a HTML page.
I would at least want the user to be able to see a short tween of the currently clicked thumbnail moving and fading to the upper-right corner of the gallery, to symbolize the fact that it's opening in a new tab. This isn't possible because as soon as you click, the new tab steals focus, and leaves my flash thumbnail stuck in the onhover state and the tween over. Delaying the click action, will trigger the popup blocker.
Could it perhaps be possibru to load the target page somehow in the background and display the tab when the loading is complete? (so you won't have to stay and look at it while the images download) How about a background worker from HTML5? - haven't looked much into those yet. Would probably still trigger the popup blocker.
