Actionscript 3 :: Capture The Mouse In Flash Air Application?

Jul 7, 2011

how to capture the mouse in an air application. I know its possible because the flex scrollbar captures the mouse. I want to replicate the scrollbar's mouse capture.

Try this in a flex/air application window:

<s:Scroller height="500" width="300">
<s:VGroup>
<s:Rect width="100%" height="2000">
<s:fill>

[Code]...

If you press and hold the scrollbar handle and drag outside, even outside the window, the scrollbar still works. It wont lose focus. So it is capturing the mouse.

what I want:

Mouse and touch capture. (Even outside the window while still pressing down the button or touch point)

Mouseevent - Flash Release Mouse Capture On Mouse Out?

Jul 19, 2011

I have a flash app loaded in an iframe. User mouses down in flash and goes outside of stage. When user goes outside of stage, is there a way to release the mouse capture from flash so that parent receives further mouse events and not the flash app?

In Firefox and Chrome, parent doesn't receive events until the user mouses up

In IE, parent receives event when the user goes outside of stage.

Flex :: Flash - Giving An Application The Focus In Browser To Capture Keystrokes?

Jan 1, 2010

I've written a little video game in Flex that runs in a browser. The player moves by pushing the arrow buttons on the keyboard, so I need to capture those keystrokes. In fact, the game action starts when the player presses one of those keys.In order to capture the keystrokes, the Flash/Flex application, not just the browser, needs to have the focus.How can I ensure that the application has the focus? I've implemented a bit of a hack: A "Begin" button you must click to start the game. The only point of this button is to ensure that the app has the focus.

If i try to catch Mouse.DOWN events on them the following way:

Flash :: How Do Skinned Flex UIComponents Capture Mouse Events

Jul 29, 2009

If my understanding of Flex is correct, skins in Flex are just DisplayObjects that are added as children to UIComponents to create the visual representation of the object. But if my understanding of the Flash event model is correct, if there is a non-transparent DisplayObject on top of another, mouse events will go to the topmost DisplayObject. The overlapped DisplayObject won't receive any mouse input.

So how is it that skinned Flex UIComponents work at all?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Capture Enter Key In Application?

Oct 22, 2009

I am trying to capture enter key in my application. I can get the event firing, but when i try to access a variable outside the function it says it is undefined. Flash Player v8. Actionscript 2.

Here is main part of the code:

class Library.ClientListTS extends mx.core.UIComponent
{
//Declare variables for controls to be used
public var dgClientataGrid;

[Code]....

The Alert.show pops up a box with the contents specified. So when i run this code and press the "enter" key, i get the alert popup box , which shows that the event is triggering ok. But the variable "listLength" shows as undefined. I wanted it to show the value 4. The main essence of my questiion is how can I access a variable outside the listener event function.

I have tried various combinations of public and private settings as well as prefixing the variable with _parent.

Media Server :: Develop An Application To Capture The Event Using A Cam?

Nov 24, 2009

I have few queries on Flash Media Server:
 
My Requirements 1. First requirement is to broadcast a live event through a website. So I need to develop an application to capture the event using a cam (I don't want to use Media Encoder) and I need to create a player for the web site.2. Second requirement is, in a webpage need to display the same live streaming event, also need to display another 8 live videos (which capture the webcam of 8 different users). Basically can I do multiple streaming how can I handle
 
Questions:a. Can I use Flash Media Server to meet the above requirements?b. I have a dedicated server for FMS and I have webhost for hosting the website. Since FMS and the web hosting are different server, will FMS communicate with the hosting server?c. What is the minimum config for the hosting server? Is it better to go for some Unmetered Servers?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Capture Mouse Click Event?

Mar 23, 2011

this 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?

Actionscript 3 :: Unable To Capture Button Click When Using Mouse Move Listener

Mar 18, 2012

In my first AS3 project (not used Flash since AS1) I need to use a custom movie clip as a cursor and detect clicking on a button. Using the code below, the custom cursor works as expected, but I am unable to capture clicking on the button.

If I comment out the first line, the trace for clicking works as expected. I have tried changing the order of the event listeners, applying the follow to the button rather than the stage, but cannot get both to work together.

stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,follow);
start_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, playPhrase);
function playPhrase(event:MouseEvent) {

Actionscript 3 :: Possible To Lock Mouse Inside FULLSCREEN Flash Application

Nov 16, 2011

I've done some research and determined that it isn't currently possible to lock the mouse into a flash application/game. People keep suggesting using fullscreen mode, which is great for a single monitor solution. However, I am developing applications that use 2 or more monitors, and require the mouse to be restricted to certain ones. Is it possible, when running flash in full screen mode, to restrict the mouse to staying inside the full screen app, so that it can't move to and click on other monitors?I am using AS3.I am also running these flash applications in Adobe AIR, if that makes any difference.

Javascript :: Detect When Key And Mouse Events Occur Inside Of A Flash Application?

Mar 5, 2012

I've some very old Flash applications, which we don't want to rebuild to add a new feature. We simply need to detect when the user has become idle. So, if the Flash application receives no key or mouse events after 3 minutes, we want to track that time till the user interacts with the application again.

We've considered wrapping the applications in newer Flash applications to include the key/mouse event tracking; however, early research shows that some of our apps are so old that they use event systems or AVM's (ActionScript Virtual Machines) that are incompatible. Also, it seems that mouse events on the inner application don't bubble up to the outer application. (I think the direction of event processing is backwards in versions of Flash prior to 8)

Anyhow, the next idea on the table is to see if we can determine when the user stops interacting with the old Flash applications using JavaScript. Can anyone confirm whether or not it is possible to detect, using JavaScript only, when a swf in an HTML document loses focus or key and mouse events stop and start occurring on the swf?

Make An Interactive Flash Application That Works By Detecting Mouse Overs And Clicks On Various Buttons/movie Clips?

Oct 10, 2009

I am trying to make an interactive flash application that works by detecting mouse overs and clicks on various buttons/movie clips and then moves to the appropriate part of the time line. But I am having an issue when I use more than one addEventListener in any one frame. I have attached the code for one such frame below. When I comment out the addEventListner and the other code relating to the followBall function this works fine and directs the user to frame Inlet_Valve_Open_Frame but now only the followBall function is working and when i try to click on the Inlet_Valve_Button movie clip nothing happens.

I have never read all the help files on the adobe flash CS3 as i don't have time and i have built this code up based on examples i have found online. I wanted to include my fla file but it's to big 6Mb. But i have attached the swf so you have an idea what i am doing.

Code: Select allstop();
//1.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,followBall);

Flex :: Mouse Move Listener Reacting Outside Of Application?

May 30, 2009

I'm getting an unusual behavior that I can't seem to get to the bottom of. When I run this, if I move in the swf area it traces normally on mouse move. To be expected.

But it's tracing for the move event when I click anywhere on screen. If I click and drag, it traces as if I were moving in the swf area of the browser.

Here's the code. I've simplified to it's barebones. Just put this in in an empty AS3 project in Flex called "Engine" - sans quotes obviously.

package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[SWF(width='640', height='360', backgroundColor='#888888', frameRate='31')]

[code]....

As a workaround I've add the MOUSE_MOVE one MOUSE_OVER and remove it on MOUSE_OUT. But the behavior still seems quite unusual and I'd be interest in understanding why it's happening.how I can keep the events constrained to the actual stage of the application?

Flex :: Scrolling With The Mouse Wheel On An Application Containing A Spark List?

Mar 18, 2011

I have an Application displaying a spark.List. Every item of my list must be visible (no vertical scroll).

I need my Application to be scrollable in a web browser, so I've add a Scroller containing all my components. When the browser window is too small to contain all my application, scrollBar appears.

My application looks like that :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" width="100%" height="100%" >

[Code]....

When I scroll with my mouse cursor outside of the List, everythink works fine. When I scroll with my mouse cursor over the List, nothing happends.

It looks like the mousewheel event is stopped by the List, even if the List does not have a scrollbar.
