Actionscript 3 :: Flash Cs4 Combobox Component Totally Ignore Styles And Events
Feb 10, 2010
I have simple combobox component in flash cs4, I try to add and event listener like this
mycombo.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, added);
function added(e:Event):void
{
trace("HI");
}
never get called even if I have the component in the stage manually or via AS, but if I add a listener to MouseOver it works, why the ADDED_TO_STAGE event don't work, also I have a problem with the textFormat style if I use
mycombo.setStyle("textFormat", tf);//suppose tf is a TextFormat object
doesn't work too, but if I put that line inside the MouseOver event it work's why??

I've built a UIComponent in AS3. When I drag it onto the stage during authoring time, the ADDED_TO_STAGE event fires.
I have an event handler, but it's really only meant to perform actions at runtime, not when I'm dropping the component onto the stage to design the layout. Is there any way to check to see if the component is "running" in a live SWF?
Basically, I don't want the ADDED_TO_STAGE event handler to do anything at design time.

I have a solid movie clip that is overlayed with a grid movie clip. Actually they are sprites. The solid sprite underneath has a MOUSE_OVER event. I have set mouseChildren and mouseEnabled on the grid sprite to false so that it receives no events. The problem is that when I go over a grid line the sprite underneate still receives the MOUSE_OUT and then the MOUSE_OVER event again. Is there anyway to make the grid completely transparent to the mouse so that it won't trigger the MOUSE_OUT and MOUSE_OVEr events for the sprite underneath over and over?

In my game there is a podium which at some point can have people on it which are added as children. There is a mouseover event listener on the podium to bring up a rollover box. I only want this rollover to appear when the mouse is over the podium graphicPodium Sprite:Children )-> graphic:Sprite ( visuals for the podium )-> person:Sprite ( a person on the podium)(children) -> graphic:Sprite ( visuals for person)Now the problem is, the person graphic overlaps and extends beyond the podium one causing the rollover area to popup when the mouse is outside of the podium area if its over the perseon sprite.

I have a button with a MovieClip over the top of it. Is there an easy way to tell flash to ignore the mouseOver events of the MovieClip in ActionScript so my button doesn't flash?

How can I make a mouse event ignore, or skip over another object? Say I have a small Sprite on a Large sprite, I want it to act as if the small sprite isn't there, and pass the mouse events directly through to the larger sprite behind it. I've been searching for this for a while and have tried various things but no avail.

I need to have background music playing in a movie that has multiple tabs for the user to click on and go to different frames in the main timeline. I want background music throughout the movie, but it is interrupted by the mouse events. It skips to whatever frame the tabs are associated with. how I can make the music override or ignore the mouse events? I'm new to Actionscripting.

I inherited a custom component from TextField. The component needs to know when any of its styles got changed at runtime via setStyle. How would I do that? It's probably obvious but I couldn't find an event or appropriate method to override.

In MXML, there is a Button class which you can instantiate like so:
<mx:Button id="something />
But what if you wanted to dynamically build this in AS3 and add it to the Flex app dynamically, without the use of components (just AS3) and then modify Flex's styles, for example, here you access the Button's properties and set them:
var btn:Button = new Button();
btn.height = 50;
btn.width = 75;
btn.x = 100;
btn.y = 40;
But how would you go about changing the Style, for example:
btn.downSkin = "something";
btn.color = "0xfffff";
I'm sort of starting to lean towards making a flex component in MXMLand than just making it visible true/false, but I like the fact that i create an object in AS3 and then destroy it when I don't need it anymore, than create it again once needed.

When I add a ComboBox component into a Sprite, the height of the container is larger than it should.Here's what I mean:
import fl.controls.ComboBox;
//add combo box inside a container sprite
var combo:ComboBox = new ComboBox();[code]..........
the height changes from 101 to 104.
UPDATE:I've overwritten the configUI method in a ComboBox subclass, but the measurements are correct all the time. Why does the container height change to 100 ?

I've heard that Adobe Flash CS5 now comes with native support for Arabic (and other right-to-left languages).I haven't confirmed this, but I have two questions:
1) Does Flash CS5 actually natively support Arabic without needing to use the text layout framework URL...
2) If so, does this native support extend to the ComboBox component?
I'm working on a form in Flash that uses the ComboBox component, and I need to verify whether this support is as holistic as I hope it is.

I'm taking my first stab at writing a custom flex 4 component by extending the UIComponent class. Unfortunately, I cannot get the component to respond to any sort of mouse events.I've tried setting mouseEnabled to true is the component, as well as setting mouseChildren to true in the parent (the stage object). It seems whatever I do, my click events can be detected from the stage, but not with the component.Here is my component class:
package components {
import mx.core.UIComponent;
public class DrawCanvas extends UIComponent {

I have created a FLV video player using the AS3 flash.media.Video object (not the FLV playback component) and I am trying to listen for meta events and Cue Points embedded in the FLV video but I am not receiving any when I trace the movie. The cue points are not being created dynamically, they are in the FLV video.
Video embed code:
// Initialize net stream
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect (null); // Not using a media server.
[Code]....
Is there anything I am missing have wrong to capture events from my net stream?

I need a way to disable the mouse over events for a combo box flash component as it is sitting inside a movieclip (A) on the stage, when I mouse over the movie clip I add a glow to a different mc (B) in the movie. Problem is is that the combo box is preventing the mouse over even in A to occur so B is not 'lighting up'.None of this works as it still appears to register a MouseOver event:
Code: Select allmyComboBox.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.textField.focusEnabled = false;
myComboBox.dropdown.focusEnabled = false;'s built in ones?

So, I popped open up Flash CS5 just now, and I couldn't find my projects panel. I was working on a dual screen set up previously, so my windows were everywhere anyways (sans external). I switched over to a smaller screen workspace, and popped opened the projects panel. Oddly enough, the code snippets panel came up instead. So, I switched off the code snippets, and tried again. I've been trying different ways of opening this panel for about 15 minutes, and I'm totally stumped. Some thorough googling didn't present any relevant results, so, StackOverflow, I turn to you. Is this a known issue? is there a secret backdoor way to open this panel?

I am working on a project that plays a sound when the mic input does not detect any sound.When I close the preview in flash I get no error but flash cs5 totally crashes.I suspect the computer cash fills up with the information about the mic input and can't handle it anymore so crashes,but I am not sure and don't know how I could fix this. I do know when the animation_mc.play(); is removed it does not crash.(In my animation_mc are the audio files that should be played when the mic does not detect an input.)
Here is my main code
Actionscript Code:
var verdergaan = false;var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();mic.gain = 50;mic.rate = 8;mic.setLoopBack(true);mic.soundTransform = new SoundTransform(0, 0);mic.setSilenceLevel(20,

I have a banner ad which contains an flv player. Due to size restrictions for banners at the site, I've found a player which I think will do the trick (chrometaphore). However, the site in question does not allow anything more than the actual swf for the ad, so I cannot include the com folder for the player and need to include all AS3 code in the swf file. I'm not a scripting genius, and wonder what it would take to include all the classes in the AS3 file contained in the swf. Is it possible? Does anyone know where I can find a VERY lightweight player whose entire code is contained in the fla?
[edit]: It just occurred to me that if the flv is on a remote server, could the com folder and files also be remote? Currently, the path for the com files looks like this:
import com.chrometaphore.display.video.colibri.Colibri;
import flash.media.SoundTransform;
What would that script look like if it was pointed to a remote com folder?

I am using Flash 8.Say I have 3 datas in the ComboBox - "one, two and three". We find that in SWF "one" is seen in the ComboBox even though the user hasn't selected the data from the ComboBox. "one" has become the default selection in the CoomboBox.I want the ComboBox component to be empty when swf is run.But I don't want the empty thing also to be shown when the dropdown is clicked.

I have searched high and low on this one and there are many different answers and suggestions.I am loading my text in via XML. I have made sure that it is UTF8 encoded.For any other dynamic text I would simply embed the characters I need.
So far I can change the colour and the size of the text in the combobox but just can't seem to figure out how to embed the french characters I need in there.I have created my own font and embedded the characters I need into a dynamic text field on the stage. The created font is named "appfont"

I'm trying to make a simple drop down list where each selection has its own value. I have a combobox with the following parameters.
Editable = false
Labels = choice1, choice2
Data = 0,1
Row Count = 8
Change Handler = blank
I have an instance name of "type" on the component. Now I have a dynamic text field with a var of "price" and on the first frame of my movie I have this code
if (_root.type == 0) {
_root.price = 10;
}
if (_root.type == 1) {
_root.price = 20;
}
But its not showing these values in my text field when I select those choices.

I have a simple ComboBox onstage, with 5 options in it. Each one has a textual label, and is assigned a numeral "data" in the Component Inspector (1,2,3,4,5). I'm trying to get the playhead to move to a specific frame, according to which option is selected, and can't make it work. The trace turns out fine, but the playhead stays in place. (The ComboBox is called my_cb).
PHP Code:
var cbListener:Object = new Object();
cbListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object) {
trace("Value changed to: "+evt_obj.target.selectedItem.label);};
my_cb.addEventListener("change", cbListener.change);
cbListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object) {
var itemName:Number = new Number();
itemName = evt_obj.target.selectedItem.data;
if(itemName == 1) { gotoAndStop(10);}

I am working on a quiz application for a client. I currently have an array that as the user goes from one question to another, it holds the question number if the user answers the question incorrectly. At the end I have the results of the array displayed on a dynamic text field.I was wondering if there is a way to display the contents of the array at the end on a comboBox or list component. And, is there a way to make the items on the comboBox or list component be clickable so that the user could navigate to a different place on the project (like the section that explains how to answer the question correctly).Right now i have the array being created at the beggining:var questionsArray:Array = new Array();I have acommand so that if the question is wrong, add the number of the quesiton to the array:questionsArray.push(" #1");and I display the results of the array at the end:
