Components: Combo Box / Set Of Keys As Will Not Affect
Jun 28, 2011
I have been making a game and have recently found out about the Combo Box component, I love it and it works really well, except for one thing.You play the game using the arrow keys, and when you press the arrow keys the character moves, AND it changes the value in the Combo Box, I do not want it to affect the combo box.Please do not say use the WASD keys or another set of keys as this will not affect it, because this is not an option, they are already being used!

Create a listener that will wait for a combo of keys pressed to launch a command? Something like if they type "admin" it will trigger a function.

I have a custom component, containing a List displaying items from an XMLListCollection:
[Code]....
Also if I click twice, only 1 mouse click will cause my custom event to be dispatched (because obviously there is no change between the items). how to make my List only react to mouse clicks? UPDATE: Yes, I've tried using "change" event for the List before, but then I have the problem that it is fired, even if the List scrollbar is clicked.

It might be something simple I'm doing wrong.I have an array populated by XML in a function by doing the following inside the function:
first_special.addItem({label: xmlMenuFile.item.headers[i],data:
xmlMenuFile.item.descriptions[i],data2: xmlMenuFile.item.hints[i]});
The problem I'm having is trying to figure out a way so that the "data2" will fill the text field "hint_txt" on ROLL_OVER of that items name in the list.I've tried to placing an event listener into the function that populates the combo box .this populates the combo box label and data with the Loaded XML File. This works
function changeHandler(ev:Event):void
{
menuText_mc.heading1_txt.text = ev.currentTarget.selectedItem.label;[code]......

I have two combo boxes. The first combo box's data is added through an XMLConnector object, the second combo box, I would like to populate through an on (change) event in the first combo box. The items in the second combo box would relate to the selection made in the first combo box.
I have attempted the following within the Actions for the first combo box:
on(change) {
switch(this.value) {
case "value1":
comboBox2.addItem({Label:"Label",Data:"Data"});
break;
} // end switch
} // end event
which is not working.
should an event be dispatched by comboBox1 and a listener be attached to comboBox2? I can't find any examples of this on the internet.. but i might be using the wrong search terms.

whether using a String as the key in a Dictionary results in slower lookups than using an Object, Class or Custom Object (an instance of developer defined Type)?
When using a String as a key, does the literal String have to be parsed, or does the Dictionary key point to the String Object?

How do I get the AWSD keys to work as smoothly as the arrow keys. I can put the arrow keys inside an enterFrame
[AS]onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//move the tank
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {

If I put the AWD keys inside an enterFrame they run until I push another button

I'm confused by a tip in Adobe's own documentation that says:Avoid using gradients, because they require many colors and calculations to be processed, which is more difficult for a computer processor to render.I understand how this would be true in a vector shape fill, but they aren't specifying vector. It seems to be implied they include bitmaps too, since the next couple tips are bitmap related.If they do in fact include bitmaps in this tip, can someone explain to me how this is possibly true? In a bitmap a pixel is a pixel. I don't see how it matter that the pixels form a gradiated color or not, the software still has to read and write each pixel regardless.

I have an array I am using to hold movie clips, and I'd like to be able to change all of them at once using the array. Now, I can do it using array[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8...].changestuff but with 60 or so movieclips, it gets unwieldy. Is there a simpler way to go through the entire array and apply the changes to each movieclip stored within?

Is there any reason why a MouseEvent.CLICK would affect only 1 of 5 items, whereas a MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER and MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT affect 5 of 5 items when each event listener is applied exactly the same way?For some reason, of the 5 images I've imported, only the last image is able to be clicked and have click actions applied, yet it is able to receive the ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT messages. So that leaves me thoroughly confused.
Here is the code I'm using, I'd greatly appreciate your help ---
Code:
import XMLManager;

I want to use a button to affect multiple objects with a similar name, such as [code]I want to be able to use something like an array to affect them with a single line, rather than having to write every single object into a piece of code, such as [code]Where X equals any number. Sorry if this description is vague, I can't seem to get my head around arrays.

Recording an f4v file to FMS3.5, capturing video from a local camera through the Flash Player i'm getting poor quality and small video size - using:
cam.setMode(320, 240, 10);cam.setQuality(0,99);
Doesn't seem to have any affect on the recorded video, is this due to the cameras native resolution?

I wrote a function within a function to control 2 Tweens.(the 2nd one isnt in the function, it's called)My problem is... is that it works for the first time.. the button is hovered over and all the other buttons show themselves and then disappear again, except the one you're over. Then I do it a 2nd time and it doesn't work. why is it only working right one time? and why isn't the if statement I put in the local function affecting the for loop? The 2nd time it takes the button you're hovering over with it and fades it out. (even though the if statement registers according to trace)this is the code
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var shortInst:Array = [btn1, btn2, btn3, exit];

I have 10,000 movieclips, but all are _visible = false , everyone of them is hidden. I want to know, the fact that they're hidden, in terms of the processor usage, is as if they don't even exist? Or are they causing some burden on the processor, and hence affecting the speed of the movie?

From what I hear, getting/setting dynamic properties is a lot slower than regular properties.
But does allowing a class to be dynamic slow down the entire class for regular property getting/setting?
For instance, let's say I have this class (pretend those properties have setters as well):
Code:
public dynamic class Hero
{
public function get endurance():int
{ return _endurance; }
[Code].....
Obviously, calling and setting the "magic" property will be a lot slower, but will all properties become slower to get/set just because the entire class is set to dynamic?
Is it better to not set the entire class to dynamic, and instead create a new dynamic object, "additionalStats" where properties can be get/set to instead?

I have a project in mind in which I would like 3 sets of interlinked images that are displayed on the same stage. While the mouse is over one set the wheel button allows for scrolling through that set of images and so on for the other two sets of images.
How do I separate the three sets of images, so that scrolling through one set doesn't affect the other sets on the stage? Each set has about 30 images each.

In my flash scene, I want to put several items off screen (to make things easier) which are going to rush through the scene (they are very big in size) but I worry that they might slow down the movie as it's playing.
But if I have things off the scene (out of view upon playback), do they affect the speed of the movie (affecting the memory and slowing things down)? To give you a better idea here is the scene: There is a vehicle moving quickly and the camera is facing the right side of the vehicle, so we can see the moving landscape behind the vehicle. I can either create a very very long landscape and movie it all one time (if having the long landscape off the screen does not affect the movie's speed), or I can create certain points of the movie where I ad and take away from the landscape.
