How to set focus to embedded swf object in chrome.document.getElementById("ID").focus() is not working in chrome but works fine with firefox and ie.
View 2 RepliesI'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.
Code:
public function activate_photo():void {
stage.focus = photoContainer;

How to access the focus property outsite the document class?
Is there an ActionScript equivalent to Javascript's getElementByID, that would allow me to use a string containing the id of an mxml ui component to refer to that component / interact with its properties?

View 3 RepliesI'm having a hard time wading through all the different types of flash and actonscript that is posted here. I've seen some of the senior members spend extra time trying to determine which Flash product was being used and which action script. Some of us are limited to F7, F8 etc. It would be nice to be able to search for entries that apply to what we're looking for. I see two possible solutions, maybe you have others.
1. Create a new entry item for the new forum that includes Flash type and Actionscript being used. 2. Each of us can identify what products and actionscript we are using or asking about in the Topic Summary.
Question: Would it be beneficial for seperate input fields to be added to the new forum site to include Product version and the actonscript being used?I know all you rich folks use the CS products and that's all

I have been trying to understand why it will not work for me. I am working on the timeline in FLASH CS5.

I have a movie clip and when I click on it, it creates another movie clip. Great.
Lets call these mc1 and mcCreate.
The problem is that I want the mcCreate to stay until I have clicked something else than mc1.
I know I can use mouse out events but is there a way to detect that the object has lost the mouses focus?
What code would I use to change the focus of an object so it would rotate around the center of the screen like for a car game with a scrolling bground that moved based on key presses?

I'm having a game in which i control an MC with the keyboard arrows and when i click outside of the flash application and back in the MC loses focus. The focus changes to a button within the stage. What i've observed is that the Flash Player has a built-in control that moves focus from an item to the other with the arrow keys.
View 3 RepliesI 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've been trying to set up this test page for my flash game but it refuses to gain focus on load. I read a bunch of forum entries and didn't get it to do anything, I can't really believe this should be so hard.

I know there are a billion questions regarding what books are best and I'm sorry for posting another, but all of them see to have an orientation to a language I am not familiar with.
My problem is I learned to program before OO became big, then I stopped programming for a few years, moved into web design, moved into coldFusion, and now find myself in PHP, actionScript and FLEX.
I have muddled along for quite some time, but I am really struggling with my understanding of OO and would like a good book that will help me out with it. If that book is geared towards Flex and AS3 then that would be awesome, but if it had no language specified either I would be happy. I'm just not sure how reading a book oriented to Java or whatever is going to help my understanding of AS3.
There is a known issue with Safari and Chrome, when you can't pass a focus to plugin (Flash or Silverlight).

View 2 RepliesThe entire box at the top is a Flex application. The box on the left with the list of pinball machines is a VBox. As you can see, if you try to scroll with your mousewheel, it doesnt respond. The reason this is shut off is because I found that if it's turned on, when you scroll up/down, the whole page goes with it. So if you scroll down four or five times, the application goes out of sight.I tried finding a solution to this when I programmed this last year but wasnt able to find any answers.if there's a way to make Flex grab the focus of the mousewheel and not let the browser move as well?
View 4 RepliesIf the size of the Document object in a Flash application is not set explicitly, how is its size determined?
View 5 RepliesSo I was just sitting and fooling a bit around in flash, when I decided to change the colour of an object through and XML document, that ofcause contained the colourcode. So I made a little, very basic, action script, but it doesn't seem to work. When I open the page, the object turns black, so the setRGB works, but because it can't find any of the xml, flash writes 000000, and therefore it turns black. Well, that's what I'm guessing. The point is, it isn't working, and I really don't know why.
