ActionScript 3.0 :: Disable Yellow Focus Outlines

Aug 5, 2009I'm using a keyboard event listener to move a sprite around, however, I have to click on the stage before the keys work. I'm even giving focus to the sprite that is supposed to move and telling flash not to use the yellow box. However, the box shows up around the sprite until I click anywhere on the stage.

Actionscript 3 :: Resize A Rect Within Another Rect?
Aug 27, 2011I draw a rectangle within another rectangle like this (I use it as a mask):
CanvasBorder.graphics.beginFill(0xf0ff00,0.1);
CanvasBorder.graphics.drawRect(100,100,550, 300);
CanvasBorder.graphics.drawRect((stage.stageWidth/2-Canvas.width/2),(stage.stageHeight/2-Canvas.height/2),250, 150);
CanvasBorder.graphics.endFill();
effectively its a 550x300 box with a 250x150 cutout.
Within one of my functions I need to resize the INNER 'cut-out' box from 250x150 to 150x100 - but keep the OUTER box exactly the same.
Normally when I'd resize a normal rectangle I'd do this:
rectangle .width = 150;
rectangle .height = 100;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Image Entertainment Navigation - Enable Object To Push Away Another
Aug 16, 2006I was looking around sites for navigation, and came across this: [URL]. I really like the way the menu with the four to five movies that scroll to the left and when hovering over them, the one you chose expands, pushes the other ones to the right of it away, and shows a description, stopping the movement. I'm thinking that this is partially the same concept as the infinite scroller, but how did they enable the object to "push" the other objects away? Tween class? [URL]
View 2 RepliesFlash - Enable Tab Key Navigation On A Datagrid Where The Cells Are Custom Item Renderers?
May 26, 2011This is a snippet of code in our custom item renderer which is in actionscript:
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.tabEnabled=true;
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.focusEnabled=true;
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.setFocus();
Alert.show( "Without this alert focus goes to next grid " );
keyboardEvent.preventDefault();
keyboardEvent.stopImmediatePropagation();
keyboardEvent.stopPropagation();
Right now tab navigation works (on tab, focus goes to next editable cell) with the alert inserted in the code but I'm not sure why because I believe the alert in the code breaks the flow of event bubbling. However without the alert (which is what we are going for) the focus goes to the next grid in our UI.
You can see the attempts of trying to stop the event from going to other components. I have also tried to call preventDefault() and stopPropagation() on the datagrid when it receives a tab key event.
how to allow proper tab key navigation without an alert?

Professional :: Pass Values And Focus From One Movieclip To Another?
Nov 8, 2010I've created some dynamic movieclips. When I click and hold on one of them, I'd like a different library linked MC to appear, and the new MC to be draggable.
I can make the new MC appear, and I can make it draggable. However, I'm a little lost when it comes to telling Flash to forget about the old clip, and make the new one the 'live' one.
In other words - after a click-hold, I want the new movieclip to be movable without the user having to mouse up and then click again.

Flash :: BitmapData.rect Creates A New Rectangle?
Jul 15, 2011I was working on some blitting code today and after profiling it found that I was creating 1000s of new rectangles. I was shocked because I only had 1 or 2 different new Rectangle() calls or I was using the .rect property of BitmapData.
I started commenting out huge swathes of code until I was left with this code in my sprite class:
canvas.bitmapData.copyPixels(_bitmapData, _bitmapData.rect, destination, null, null, true);
I cached the result of _bitmapData.rect at object creation and my thousand of new rectangle calls were suddenly gone from the profiler.
Why the heck would BitmapData.rect create a new rectangle? Is there a way to check the core libraries or something and confirm this is true?

Dec 4, 2009I had made a custom Youtube player in Flash CS4 in AS3 with Play/Pause, Mute, Stop, Seekbar and VolumeBar Controls. My problem is "only" with the Seekbar and the VolumeBar. It always shows up a bounded Yellow retangle over the controls when you try to drag it (scrub it) using a mouse which looks really ugly... I have tried every possible ways to remove the tabstop, like tabEnabled, tabIndex , and the like but all in vain.

Actionscript 3 :: Prevent A Rect From Moving From Its Position When Decreasing Width?
Apr 12, 2012I seem to be having problems with rectangles moving from their assigned positions when all I want to do is decrease their width.A game I'm working on simulates an explosive with a fuse. The fuse decreases in size as a clock counts down to 0.I think the problem has to do with local coordinates vs. global coords, but I'm not sure how to rectify the problem. Here is some code:
//fuse
_fuse = new Sprite();
_fuse.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);[code]........
Nowhere in my code does the x position of the fuse change.Aside from this one issue, the rect functions exactly how I want it to.
