Is there any way I can hide the focus indicator for everything in my document? Can't I just make some Focus Manager for the entire document and do hideFocus() from there?
View 1 Repliesi want to set the focus on a certain textfield, but since the textfield is not in the document class of my application im having trouble to access the focus property. things like: this.focus = myTf, MovieClip(parent).stage.focus = myTf etc. don't work for me, im slowly turning insane.
How to access the focus property outsite the document class?

Does anyone know how to do this in AS3?

View 1 RepliesI just built a website entirely in Flash Catalyst CS5. After adding a few more states the file size got bigger and the loading time increased. On average, it takes about 10 seconds for the site to load on my connection. Till then all you get is a white page and the spark preloader shows up when you scroll down. All I want is a simple preloader with a percentage indicator, loading bar, and maybe my company logo.

I'm looking for a tutorial that shows you how to create a menu indicator from an mc.
Basically when you click a menu button I want an mc of a box to tween with easing to that button as an indicator as to what section the user is currently viewing.
Ive seen one awhile back but cannot seem to find the tutorial on it.
I am using AS 3 Flash CS4, WIndows XP SP3. I am unable to use the Mouse.hide(); method in many of my scripts. If I add Mouse.hide() to a preexisting script, I get the following error; line1 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method hide through a reference with static type Class. If I add Mouse.hide():void; to a preexisting script, I get the following error: line1 Label must be a simple identifier Once this has happened, if I then remove ALL lines of script from the file...but leave the Mouse.hide(); [or Mouse.hide():void;], and also remove all objects from the stage, when I run the file, I still get those same errors.

OK I've got a little more research on this done so I'm going to totally rephrase the question: I have two trees, I want to be able to drag items from one tree to the other. In the receiving tree I have some logic that allows or denys the drop. I am using the native cursor feedback Like this :
[Code]...
When the logic determines NONE it properly rejects the item except the drop position indicator sticks like in the screenshot. I know now that neither dragComplete, nor dragDrop are being fired in this situation, so I have no function to put code into that would clean that up. So how can I listen for this drag rejection? ScreenShot shows app After drop

I need to do a simple progress indicator while loading an image on background. I'm using the flash.display.Loader class in what seems to be the standard way. The problem is that even though I can see that flash.display.LoaderInfo fires the ProgressEvent.PROGRESS at regular intervals using tracing, a dynamically updated text (or any other graphics object) is updated only once when the loading finishes. It looks like if the display update queued and caused only one update at the end. This is a simplified version of the function which initiates the loading:[code]

I have my main movie, which contains the logo and navigation.I have a blank movieclip created with actionscript that loads the individual movie swf files.That works fine.What I want to do, and which I can't figure out is dynamically have the main navigation buttons' text indicate what page you the user is on. Right now the code is on each button instance, example:[code]so the variable aMenu holds the moveclip names of the buttons. pageHolder holds the the name of the current page that is loaded.Thats how I change the pages to be loaded. To explain, if you look at the button code, the text for each button is by default greay and when you rollover it becomes black and off and it becomes gray again. That is on the first frame. On the second frame the text is black.In the code I tried to make the black dynamically, but it didn't work, so I settled for going to the second frame and stopping.My second question(much shorter I promise).I guess its preference, but is it generally good to put the code on each instance of a button or put in in the main frame where your code lies.

I am trying to upload image files to my server using AS3 and PHP, and at the moment I am succeeding in uploading multiple files and restricting it to images only, but since I am finding it difficult to figure out how to have a loader bar show when the files are being uploaded, as well as executing a function once all files have been uploaded to go to a specified frame.
Here is my code thus far,
AS3:
import flash.net.FileReferenceList;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
[Code]....
1: how can I display a percentage or a uploading bar indicating the progress of the files being uploaded?
2: How can I launch a callback function after ALL files have been uploaded successfully?
3: How can I make the file browser appear on click, and not upon loading the flash file?
have the indicator arrow go to the button that was last clicked after rolling out of the menu.I have lost track of what all i have tried.URL...
View 1 RepliesI have a .swf file containing a navigation bar and also an animation. I was going to use getURL on the nav buttons so that a different html page would launch onRelease. The animation in the swf file that contains the nav buttons plays as soon as the swf is loaded and there's also a movie clip in the file which continues its animation even after the file has loaded and played. As each of the nav buttons are pressed and the correct html page loads, I don't want the entire swf file to reload and therefore play the entire animation again as it did on the home page, but instead I just want it to appear as though it's already loaded but I do want the separate movie clip in the swf file to continue to play. Is there any way to make this happen?
Also, I wondered what code I'd need to make the current page nav button appear in a different state to all the other buttons to make a "you are here" effect.
I have a website, basic overview. I have my main movie, which contains the logo and navigation. I have a blank movieclip created with actionscript that loads the individual movie swf files. That works fine. What I want to do is dynamically have the main navigation buttons' text indicate what page you the user is on. Right now the code is on each button instance, example:
Code:
//work button Definition
on(press){
if(_root.pageHolder != "work") {
_root.pageHolder = "work";
_root.mcContainer.loadMovie(_root.pageHolder+".swf", this);
[Code] .....
Each button has the same code, just pointing to their respective pages. Here is the code in the first frame for setCurrentMarker()n function:
var aMenu = new Array(home, jschaer, work, contact);
function setCurrentMarker(){
for(i=0; i<= (_root.aMenu.length-1); i++){
if(_root.aMenu[i] == pageHolder){
[Code] .....
So the variable aMenu holds the moveclip names of the buttons. PageHolder holds the the name of the current page that is loaded. Thats how I change the pages to be loaded. To explain, if you look at the button code, the text for each button is by default greay and when you rollover it becomes black and off and it becomes gray again. That is on the first frame.
On the second frame the text is black. In the code I tried to make the black dynamically, but it didn't work, so I settled for going to the second frame and stopping. How do you get those little scroll boxes where you can put code. I guess its preference, but is it generally good to put the code on each instance of a button or put in in the main frame where your code lies. Is there any benefit either way?

View 2 RepliesI have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.
