I have screen in which I have a button which sets the clip to lower quality, and I also have to have the mouse event in which when the mouse is clicked (anywhere on the screen), this sends you to a different frame (gotoAndStop). The problem is, when I click on the button, not only it does its function, but the mouse event also does. What I want to do basically is to disable the mouse event while pressing the button.
View 4 RepliesI would like to have a movie to play when the mouse is over a button instead of when it is clicked. My script is now:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
I have never used the Double Click before but now that I am trying to apply it to a button it's not responding.
button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, buttonClick);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace('has been double clicked');
}
Is there more to know about the DOUBLE_CLICK?
I have four scenes, it loads on the first scene. I click the button which sould go to scene four but it goes to scene 2.
View 2 RepliesI just started playing around with as3 and I have a function for mouse clicks that draws a shape on each click. However the mouse click event does not appear to work unless I click a movieClip object I placed in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to make the mouse click event recognize when I click anywhere on the screen?

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.
View 3 RepliesThis is quite a complicated problem to explain.Basically I had some buttons with a on mouse out, and on mouse over effects.I wanted each button to load a different scene of the movie.For some reason the on mouse over and mouse out button effects work until I link them to load a scene in the movie.The only button I have linked to load a movie is the Drinks button. It loads the drinks scene, no problem, however the mouse over effects don't seem to work anymore.I have included the .fla file so if someone could maybe have a quick look at it, it is probably just a small bit of coding I have done wrong!

View 1 RepliesI have a parent sprite that contains several child sprites. I have attached mouse click and mouse down event amongst others to the parent sprite. And in the listeners I check which child has been targeted using the "event.target" property. However It seems that the mouse click event does not trigger for some reason. Is it possible that the mouse down event is eating up the click event. Is this a know issue in as3 and is there a possible workaround?

I have a BUTTON called BOTAO82 which when having a MOUSE OVER event, should show a simple TEXT on a specific location of the screen (something explaining where that button will take you to).That button will have two events: MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_CLICK.The CLICK i got it right...OK.The problem is the OVER. How can i SHOW the related TEXT when the mouse is over that button?

The bug is:
If you press left click and dont release it, and then press right click (contextual menu appears) and then left click again, the first "drag" action is never released.
Its like, I need to make that my right click says: "hey left click, your job is done, you can go home now".
I am trying to create what I believe to be a very simplerollover button that produces three buttons that pop up then clickon a button and gotoAndPlay a label. The rollover and pop up I havebeen able to do successfully - however the mouse CLICK event forthe buttons that pop up won't work. I know this should be simple -but I have been struggling with this for days. I am determined todo this using AS3 as I do not see the point in going backwards toAS2.
View 6 RepliesI would like someone to guide me that if there is any events which can be used for right click of the mouse or the scroll of the mouse (specially the scroll). Until now all the mouse event I have been using is based on the left mouse click, release. How to use the right click and scroll of the mouse using actionscript.
View 1 Repliesthis seems to be a simple task at beginning. I have a mygameboard object which inherited from spirit class. I added eventlistener and handler in the constructor. For some reason, the click event handler only receives some of the clicks when the mouse points to certain area of the mygameboard object. I have noticed that areas receiving mouse events are child textfield objects of mygameboard.instance. Putting this.mouseEnabled = true; in the constructor has no effect. How can I enable the whole display area of mygameboard receiving mouse events?

I am new to Flash and trying to create something that may be simple, but am getting tripped up on.My issue is I have a navigation bar with text. When I mouseover one of the links, I would like a "pop-up" menu to appear. And from there, a CLICK event on them would bring me to a main-timeline frame.
How I went about to test this was I created a rectangle on the first frame of the main timeline, I converted that to a button. On the fifth frame of the main timeline I named the frame. Going into the button now, on the 'OVER' keyframe in its' timeline, I inserted more rectangles to form the pop-up menu. Now, I then converted the first rectangle to a movieclip that I want to on a CLICK goTo the 5th frame of the main timeline.
When I use the usual AS3 code in the actions panel of the movieclip with a basic CICK event, this error appears;
1120: Access of undefined property 'name of movie clip that links to fifth frame'.
I'm attempting to have a browser window come up when someone clicks on a flash animation I made(an ad). I call addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick); in my init routine as you can see below(the code did not import nicely into this post...) . I also tried addEventListener on my background bitmap but that didn't work any better. The mouse click event never fires. I cut out some of the non-relevent code such as the loading of bitmaps.
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Bitmap;

I have a button and I'd like to have the user right click on the button and then display the menu that will allow them to copy the highlighted text, but I'm getting the infamous 1119: Access of possibly undefined property RIGHT_CLICK through a reference with static type class. What am I doing wrong?

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I have been trying to find this on google for ages but can't seem to get a decent result, usually I find about the flash context menu.
In Flash Air, I want to be able to capture the Right Click Mouse Event, i'm sure this is very simple but i've checked the documentation and looked on google but can't seem to come up with a result.
Does anyone know how to capture this event?
I have made a couple of 'advanced rollovers' if you will, yet one thing is annoying me about them! When you roll over the button it looks great, yet as soon as your mouse goes off the hit area, it just suddenly shoots straight back to frame 1 of the movie clip , is there any way to animate a scene once the mouse has gone off the button, so it looks smooth when rolling over and when rolling off?

I want to program something that does this but I have no idea how to get started or whether it is possible.
1. Using the loader class I will load several images to the stage and set their x / y coordinates accordingly so that they don't overlap.
2. A random x, y coordinate is generated within the document class.
3. If there are any loaders that exist at that location it will be deleted.
If the x, y coordinate was to be generated by a click to the stage, I could do it like this.
Code:
// detect for clicks at the stage level
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, dosomething);
public function dosomething(e:Event) : void
[Code]....
But I want to be able to send a simulated click instead at a certain x y coordinate, and then use the .target to operate on the object that it refers to. Is this possible?
I'm sure this isn't the greatest code in the world but here it is. I'm trying to get these movieclips (6 of them) to respond better. Right now, if a user clicks on one, they all blank out, and only display the x in the checkbox after the mouse rolls out.
