Basically I have some TLF text as a symbol, it's read only, the font is embedded and I set mouseEnabled to false. It's sitting as a graphic, on top of a button. When I mouse over the text, or the area where the text would be, it prevents the button from receiving the on mouse over event. Using classic, dynamic text, this route normally works just fine. Any ideas what could be causing the problem?
View 1 RepliesBecause the color of the background image in my application is very dark, and the Alpha is very low, when I hover my mouse over a checkbox, the text is scarcely visible. I've scoured the interwebz in vain for what property to set, either at design-time or in the MouseOver event for the checkbox and just can't figure out what property or setStyle property to alter to be able to control the color of the checkbox text when the mouse pointer is hovering over it.
View 1 RepliesI have a class that extends the MovieClip class, is there a way that I can prevent this MovieClip from dispatching a certain event? More specifically I want to prevent it from dispatching MouseEvent.CLICK under certain conditions.
View 5 RepliesMy menu(code is by scotty)has 3 movieclip buttons, with text. I broke apart the text to change the color onMouseOver. Problem is the button only works when the mouse is pointed over the actual text, so it doesn't work properly, because the text is obviously very small. I can't put a "field" behind it, because it will become part of the MC, and thus will change color.
Here's the example: [URL]

I have an application where I am trying to get all user input directed to one paticular text field. So if the user clicks on another text field, the focus would prgramatically switch back to the first. I am not having much luck so far.
public function focusChng(e:Event) : void var cTextField; //current Field cTextField = e.target; switch( e.type ) case FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN:
cTextField.borderColor = 0x0000FF;

I have a movieClip, which in turn has a nested movieClip. I need each of these to have thier own onRollOver events, the parent movieClip is OK, but the event never fires for the nested movieClip. My code goes something like this:

is output when mcOne is rolled over, as it should, but nothing is output when mcTwo is moused over.
I have two questions the first being how could i restrict a text input area to allow it only to recieve entries 1 - 49 I have tried
I1.restrict = "0-9";I1.maxChars = 2;
The second being how could i restrict the inputfields to not allow duplicate numbers?
There are 6 of them as follows:

View 3 Repliesedit: Resolved; my ActionScript function for parsing the mySQL results didn't correctly interpret a recently modified column, and the corrupted new output happened to be identical to the old output.
I have created an application that accesses a PHP/mySQL database, but it caches old information.
I used the workaround from Adobe's website, where I append '+ new Date().getTime()' to the URLRequest String, but the application continues to use the old data.
When I trace the URLRequest String and C&P it into a browser window, however, I receive the correct data.
I understand that when applying html text to a textfield you can have an anchor tag call a specific function. however, is if you can call a function on rollover of the anchor tag?
Example:
Instead of this...
<a href='asfunction:_root.test'>Click here to call the test function</a>
I'd like this...
<a href='' onMouseOver='asfunction:_root.test'>Rollover here to call the test function</a>
I currently have a document set up with a large movie clip (about 2000px wide) and have created 2 buttons - left and right. I would like for when you mouse over the left or right button, the movieclip would slide across the screen horizontally.
View 8 RepliesWe have a Flash application provided by a vendor. It reads its parameters from an xml file on our web server's file system. However, it can also be spoofed to read its parameters from an xml file sitting on another domain's web server. At first we thought crossdomain.xml might be able to fix this, but we've researched it and understand the purpose of crossdomain.xml. It won't solve this issue.Are there any ways of enforcing that a Flash application reads its input file only from the same server where the Flash application was served? Or is the recommendation just to initialize variables within the Flash app, not relying on an external file.
View 3 RepliesI'm working with a third party swf that I cannot change and am charged with making it work in a local environment, loaded within a container application I have built. The SWF was published for accessing the network sandbox, so whenever it invokes the ExternalInterface in a local html container, it throws a security sandbox error and kills execution. The ExternalInterface calls are all non-critical (logging) so if I can block them somehow, then I won't have a problem any more.
View 3 RepliesI want to have a Sprite with an child TextField, but without the textfield triggering or preventing any mouseover events from its parent.
An example would be a world map where each country has a label with its name. For smaller countries, the label would naturally exceed the country's borders. However, the label should not get in the way of mousing over whatever is beneath it (i.e. neighbouring countries).
I want a scrollbar to show up when the onmouseover event is triggered on element A.
How is this done with actionscript 3?
Before I ask let me explain the swf. Basically I have a logo (mc) on the first keyframe. Then I have like four more keyframes each containing a different movieclip with that some logo with different animations. Now what I want to accomplish is. onMouseover I want to randomly jump to any of the keyframes containing the animations. To give the effect of a random animations on the mouseOver event.

Client has a flash navigation menu on his website. When the site is accessed via [URL] the hardcoded links in the flash nav load pages properly. When accessing the website via the [url] the site navigation links can not load the proper pages and instead just redirect the user to the root domain.
I assume this can be fixed with a change to the .htaccess but I do not know how flash handles these links.

I have setup a box2d world with a keyboard controlled player. The player can walk and jump. How do I prevent the player from "sticking" to walls while jumping and pressing the directional key towards an object?
View 3 RepliesI'm working on a Flex 3 app, implemented in Actionscript 3 and MXML, that includes an embedded video player, which is essentially a black box--I load it as a SWF from another site on demand, and I don't have access to its source code. It does, however, inherit from Sprite.The problem is that, when focus is on the Flash app, the video player is somehow receiving and processing keyboard events, even when the player itself isn't in focus.So when users are typing text elsewhere in the GUI, if they hit the space bar, the video pauses.
I've tried intercepting key events in the Sprite's parent, and setting tabEnabled = false, tabChildren = false, and buttonMode = false on the Sprite, but nothing seems to work. It's as if the Sprite is getting keystrokes through an alternate Event path.how I can prevent the player from receiving keyboard events or input events entirely? It's fine with me if no input events reach the player, since I've implemented my own,separate video controls.
are there any simple Sleep(1000) type of functions in the ActionScript 2.0..??
View 9 RepliesI have movie that has two different images... When the movie is loaded and reach the end, I have large button that onMouseOver effect has new image (smiling girl). The problem is that I want her to smile all the time while the mouse is over animation. That should includes the case when someone trys to type something and finally press small button to submit data. But when mouse cursor is not rolling over she should stop smiling...
The problem is that it's simple to have her smiling in every other case, but when the event as described occurs, she stop simling.. I try several solutions that came up in my head, such as attachMovie, createEmptyClip, different depths, rollOver/out etc, but it seems that I haven't bright idea what i should do i order to get the expected result.
Am I correct in understanding that the onMouseOver event doesn't fire if the mouse button is clicked and held down prior to moving the mouse over the specified object? Would I need to code something using hitTest to see if the mouse is over the specified object regardless of whether the button is down or not?
