Css :: ActionScript 3.5 :: Apply A Border To Whatever UI Component Or Container User Clicks?
Jan 10, 2012
I am working on a project where I want to add a click listener to the root DisplayObjectContainer, which, if the user clicks on a UIComponent, will add a red border to whatever the user clicked on. Currently, my code to do so looks something like this:[code]Unfortunately, nothing actually happens. The UI component the user clicks on remains distinctly un-bordered. I've tested event.target and am reasonably sure that it does actually point to the UI Component the user clicked on; I also used Alerts to make sure that the if statement was actually executing fully.
I have a dynamic textfield that is html formatted and loads text from an XML file. On the XML file I have the following image that contains a link[code]...
I'm building a flash app that will go full screen. I need to ensure it's usable at a variety of resolutions.I can overlay them fine, but the problem is I now can't interact with the app, because when I click on some part of the UI, it thinks I'm clicking on the image, since it's technically in front. I want the image to be in the front at a visual level, but without it having any bearing on the keyboard/mouse interaction with the app.My fall back is to create a series of 1pixel wide lines, which will still be in the foreground mouse/keyboard wise, but I can cope with losing that much interaction ability.
I'm trying to apply a GlowFilter (border) to a image and then rotate+skew it. Unfortunately, doing this makes the filter look bad (jagged edges) even though the image itself is smooth. I've tried a few things, including using different filters (like the DropShadowFilter). Here's a rough example of what I'm doing...
I have a problem with a dynamic video player that I have created in flash. The video player is "SCORM" compliant so that when the user clicks the "exit" button a class file is called to mark the user complete in an LMS.I have tested the SCORM Code previously and it works with out issue. Usually I have the completion code embedded in an Actions Layer of the movie. This is the first time I have attempted to call the completion status in a class file, I have added a "trace statement" when the movie is tested within flash it runs the trace statement properly, but when uploaded to the LMS environment the course does not complete properly
I have a project where I display content from an array. I also need to display ratings- which is between 1- 5 stars, works fine with correct alternate shading for each line- however, when I mouse-over, the skinnable countainer in the itemrenderer(named cont) still retains the original color it had for that row. As we are using fxg graphics, we have a a skinnable container box containing the ratings with one shade, that lies just within the larger table - with row color having changed on mouse-over. Screenshot attached- you can see the thin patch of blue between the ratings box(dark grey) and the highlighed row on mouseover...
I was told to shift from Datagrid to List to resolve this and for better performance- seems like a biggish task which I messed up.As an easier alternative, was looking to I would like to either
a) get the skinnable container color to disappear, so I see single color in a row on mouseover
b) disable the color change on mouseover for the grid rows, so this issue is avoided .The datagrid is very straighforward as below
I have a BorderContainer with some instances of spark Line. I need to select this lines by clicking on this. But adding event mouse click listener fails. ASdoc [URL] says that line have only activate and deactivate events. Any best way to detect whether line clicked (use another line class?). I think that catching of clicks in the bordercontainer is bad solution.
I try to create a function to change border property of border container.To do that I create a function for each border container on my MXML.But I'd to code better and to do a generic function.Today my function is:
protected function bcContact_mouseOverHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { // TODO Auto-generated method stub bcContact.setStyle("borderVisible",true);
[code]....
bcContact is one border container Id.I try to replace bcContact by this but it doesn't work.
My basic requirement is to draw a circle inside a BorderContainer with the layout set to BasicLayout.I run this method in the CREATION_COMPLETE event of the BorderContainer object.[code]I know I must be missing something VERY basic here. Can I just draw like this OR should I draw in some other event? I know that I can create a Ellipse object and easily add it to the border container but I would like to know how I can do this using the graphics object.
I use Flex 4 for writing swf part of my application... So I have some swf files loaded in container, and what I need is allow to change that swf by clicking in it.How can I detect in which swf user clicks?
I'm converting some old Director/Shockwave animations to Flash, and I'm setting up a navigation system. I have a simple animation that runs from from 1 to frame 110, and I'd like it to loop until the user clicks a button. The timeline goes on beyond frame 110 with other stuff. In an "actions" layer in frame 110, I have the following
gotoAndPlay(1);
I thought that this would lead to the looping, but it doesn't. The movie just moves on beyond frame 110. Just as a test, I put the following at frame 110 instead.
stop();
and when I test the movie, it doesn't stop. The commands don't seem to be seen.
I am editing a template made with as2, flash8 and its controlled externally by a html file. I want to add a gallery when the end-user clicks on a picture. The main problem is the structure of the template. Its like that: There is a symbol named "pages" and in that there are 6 frames which one represents a page of the website except the main menu which is in another symbol. In the 4th layer 3rd frame there are 6 movie clips which are instances of another symbol named "p1_3 copy 2" which is a button and an instance of another button named "but_picts". One of those movie clips i want to make it a link for my gallery. So we there is the movie clips with the following actionscript attached:
this is probably a really simple code, (it might be javascript i dunno)... but i want a simple 'X' button that will close my window when the user clicks it.---------------------------------------------------
I need to get some color info for where user clicks on the screen. can i use getPixel with an imported image file ? or does it need to be converted to a bitmap?
here is the code im using to import my image
PHP Code:
function loaderComplete(myEvent:Event) { var myQueryStrings=this.loaderInfo.parameters; //Live URL
I have a 400 x 300 video on frame 20 when a user clicks a button named double_btn I want them to go to frame 21 with the video still playing but double the size. Any ideas on how to do this?
I have a portfolio_mc that is inside of a content_mc (stage->content_mc->portfolio_mc). There are 3 buttons that take the user to an appropriate frame designated by a frame label and this loads up an FLV. The problem is that when I click on any of the navigation buttons on the main timeline, the FLV that is currently playing, is still playing (I can hear the audio). How to stop this.
Here is the code used for controlling the buttons in the motion_mc timeline: stop(); var naviArr:Array = new Array(btn01, btn02, btn03); btn01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate); btn02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate); btn03.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigate); [Code] .....
I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out.
I've made a flex 3 app that is sitting on my web server. People will be able to link to this flex app on my web server on their own sites/blogs/forums and so on. Is there any way I can log where a user that clicks on it comes from? Example: the URL to the flex app is [URL] User A links the flex app at his blog at [URL] Then User B comes in to User A's blog and clicks the flex app and finally ends up at my site. Any way I can log User B's click through the flex app?
I'm soon to be launching an Adobe AIR desktop app. To make the best out of future updates I need to get analytics of which features get used the most and which not. How to track what the user clicks?
I am trying to create a slider component where the thumb does not display until the user clicks on the bar. When the user does click on the bar the thumb would appear wherever the mouse is on the bar. I have no experience with the display package and since I am pretty new to using flash in general I cant think of any other creative way to do it. How to make objects display and display where the mouse is clicking.
I want to have different ContextMenus appear when the user right clicks on different objects in my application. Right now, I define a custom Context menu in each different class that needs a unique menu. This works, but seems unnecessary.Is there way to centralize this so as to handle all ContextMenus globally? Im looking for something similar to how you can handle click events globally by determining the type of the target.
I have an opening screen which asks the user to enter the first name and then they click the "start" button.This then loads an external swf into it and it starts a quiz on a timer.All that works except that the timer starts sometime during opening swf.I'm not sure if it's when the main swf is loaded or if when the user clicks in the input box but it is definitely not when the user clicks the "start" button like I have programmed.I even tried to stop the timer until the user clicks a button on the second swf (the external swf that is loaded into the main swf)[code]In the loaded swf I have a clock_mc that holds the timer.the first frame has a simple stop(); and the second holds all of the code that makes the clock run.I then have code setup so that when the user clicks a button the clock_mc.gotoAndPlay(2)[code]
