Actionscript 3 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Implement The Function

Jul 5, 2011

I have this keyboard event listener to listen for key_Down of letter A and D but I end up with and error:

1119: Access of possibly undefined property A through a reference with static type Class.

When I use

function rotate(evt:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if (evt.keyCode==68) {
evt.currentTarget.rotation = 90 }

[Code].....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Call On Function

Jul 5, 2011

The keyBoard event listeners call on the rotate and unrotate functions and based on the key inputs(A and D) will implement either of the functions and rotate the image or return it to the original upright position. However, I haven't been able to get the function to work. When I press the A or D keys on the keyboard nothing happens. I even put trace() in one of the functions to see if the function will even be implemented but I don't get anything. I put in my Scripts below. Why are the functions not working? Do the eventlisteners fire or are there conflicts? I'm not getting any error messages.

ti.border = true
ti.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, onInput);
function onInput(event:TextEvent):void {
if(ti.text.search('a')!=-1) load_image("http://i54.tinypic.com/anom5d.png", "ottefct");

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Event Listener Doesn't Work In Browser?

Sep 6, 2009

Is there a reason why a keyboard event listener would not work if the flash is embedded in an HTML? The rest of my game is running fine in the background, but I can't launch the movieClip "nextCar." My code is below, if that makes any difference...
 
function goNow (event:KeyboardEvent): void {    thisOtherKey = event.keyCode;    if (thisOtherKey == 32) {        nextCar.gotoAndPlay(2);        parkingQue.play();        tries++;    }}stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, goNow);

ActionScript :: Javascript - Event Listener To Listen "all The Time" Not Just Wait For Any Particular Instance (mouse Click - Keyboard Event) Of Event?

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.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Listener Of A Loaded Swf Doesn't Work Inside A 'mother Clip'?

Sep 23, 2009

Atm im putting a a game i build into my main flash app.Everything works fine except the keyboard listener.unny.AFTER a mouse click on the 'loaded' swf the keys 'arrow UP' + 'arrow DOWN' start working.I created already a script that loads the listeners IF they are not loaded yet, but i think thats not the problem. Same situation.After clicking on the movie it starts to work, but apparently the listeners are already applied. All other listeners work besides the keyboard listeners.Stand alone(the game swf running by its own) the game works perfectly!btw the game is importing a main document class.

Code:
this.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN
var keybListenerLoadedUp:Boolean = false;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Why Doesn't Listener Get The Custom Event

Aug 31, 2011

my event listeners does not catch a custom event while all of the others do. I have this in my FLA:

[Code].....

...which obviously means p5.finished() executed AND NGDemoEvent successfully fired the custom event. But I don't get the trace from closeP5Handler() (and obviously not from closeP5).

My FLA file has six other such function calls to six other classes (P2, P3, etc.) and these all work. They're identical. I'm tearing my hair out over this. Why won't the listener get the event?

ActionScript 3.0 :: A Function For A Mouse Event And A Keyboard Event

Jul 4, 2009

I have a question about making a function for two different kinds of event. It's not critical but I would like to reduce my lines of code and just be more efficient. Basically I have a button on the stage called "Enter". I also want the user to have the option of hitting the enter button. I don't have a problem making these two separate handlers for these events (i.e. one handler for the KeyboardEvent and one handler for the MouseEvent):

ActionScript 3.0 :: Click Event Model - Make A Function And Add It As An Event Listener?

Feb 27, 2007

I'm moving on to my next massive programming project and I'm trying to decide whether I should code it in as 2.0 or 3.0. I came across the new click event model in 3.0. Right now it's looking like a pain in the butt to me. So now I have to make a function and add it as an event listener? what the hell? What's the benefit? I understand stuff like this makes AS a more complete language but it's kinda annoying.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Event Listener Doesn't Work In Browser?

Aug 18, 2011

I have an eventListener that is listening for the end of an audio channel that is playing an external MP3:

ActionScript Code:
d1Channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundComplete, false, 0, true);
function soundComplete( e:Event ):void {

This works beatifully when I am running a test movie on my computer, and even the fully published SWF. But when I load it on the web server, and run it in a browser. This doesn't do anything. Once the audio is done, nothing happens.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Jump To Frame Then Add Event Listener Doesn't Work

Feb 23, 2009

I have a movieclip with 3 frames. each frame has a button on it. Using actionscript I jump to a frame then add an event listener to that button.However, it doesn't work since the playhead for that movieclip doesn't actually get moved to a different frame until the frame redraws. So actionscript says the button doesn't exist.(other than not dynamically adding the buttons with code... which will be my next step...)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can Function Receive Keyboard Or Mouse Event?

Nov 3, 2010

I've decided to add keyboard capabilities to my program. All my functions I have written require a mouse event to be passed to them. I'm just wondering if there is a better way to run these mouse event functions rather than to take out the contents of these functions and create a new function that is called within a mouse event function OR a keyboard event function. What I mean is I am starting to change the mouse event functions I have to only have one line inside of them which will run a separate function. This same separate function I will run using a keyboard input as well.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing An Event Listener From A Function?

Mar 15, 2010

I am working on a game for my university project and I have run into a bit of trouble. I have the following code here:

function launchBall() {
this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN ,launchBallHandler);
function launchBallHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (e.keyCode==32) {

[Code].....

Its set up so that when a ball goes off screen, it resets to a coordinate and launchBall is called.

LaunchBall then adds the event listener to see when the Space key is pressed and that starts the ball moving again. The problem I have now is I cant seem to get rid of that eventListener. I have tried removeEventListener and that doesn't seem to work. I have tried:

if (ball.xVel>0 && ball.yVel>0) {
removeEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,launchB allHandler);

just below that code and that doesn't work either. It's not spitting any errors out at me but I am completely stumped.

Listener Not Calling Function For Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE?

Jan 10, 2011

I just started a course that does a little flash. To teach us they have us build a brick breaker game. I have come to a part were I have to remove all the Listener that were created for the game. Each level is a movie clip and when the level is over the level instance is removed from the child. From what I understand when the level is removed the Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE becomes true and the function attached should be called however it is not. Here is the code of the function that sets the listener and the function to be called:

var j:int = 0;
