Emulate Double-Click
Can one emulate a double-click in Flash MX?
I'm creating a user-defined polygon, and want
it to close when the mouse is double-clicked.
My second option is to close the polygon when
two points are within a tolerance (using hitTest).
Though, I'd rather use a double-click.
Thanks,

Emulate Mouse Click?
I'd like to emulate a mouse click. For instance call a function with an x,y position and have flash react as if the mouse had actually been pressed in that location. The mouseListener stuff won't work for me since I want button etc... to react to this click. Anybody know if this is possible?

Single Click Button Requires Double Click
I noticed that some buttons in all of my .swf's were taking
two clicks to get them to work. After you double click them
once they work fine. I made a very simple movie to demonstrate
my problem. Please tell me if this problem is occuring for you also.
Thanks,

How To Differentiate A Single Click From A Double Click
Hi guys
I'm having a mission trying to differentiate between single and double clicks.
A double click is made up of two single clicks so if i do a trace of when the mouse is double clicked, the result will be:
single click
double click
How can I make the trace just
double click
and not
single click
double click
??
Here's the code that goes on my button:
Code:
Code:
on (press) {
if (!_root.click) {
timer = getTimer()/1000;
_root.click = true;
} else {
timer2 = getTimer()/1000;
}
if ((timer2-timer)<.25) {
trace("double click");
} else {
trace("single click");
timer = getTimer()/1000;
_root.click = true;
}
}
Thanks for any ideas

[F8] Single Click Acting Like A Double Click
I am trying to troubleshoot a problem that has come up with some flash-based courses. These have been developed over the last few years, so they've been developed in MX2004 and Flash8, but the basic code (AS2) is the same across the board.
Each course has a series of swf files (pages) that get loaded dynamically, when the user clicks a "next" button. They have been working fine until recently. Now a small number of users are experiencing something odd...
When these users click the next button (a movieClip called mcNext), the next page loads, and then immediately, the page after that loads. It's as if the user clicked twice, or double-clicked.
So far, it looks like it might be a browser version/plug-in version specific error, as it's only happening with I.E. 7 and Flash player 9.0.124.0
here's (a simplified version of) the code:
Code:
mcNext.onRelease = function() {
thisPage++;
pageChange();
};
function pageChange():Void {
pageNum.text = thisPage+" of "+totalPages;
thisMCL.loadClip("page"+thisPage+".swf", mcContentHolder);
}
Anybody experiencing anything similar?
thx!

Double Click
I am making a move where I have three main mc's(red, green, purple). In each mc is a button. each button opens another mc that relates to the main mc... they will be named: red2, green2, purple2. What I would like is to click on the button in the red mc and open tell the red2 to goto another frame, and when I click on the same button again the mc will go to the first frame again. Along with that I want the other mc's green2 and purple2 togo to their first frame if not already there. and likewise for all the main mc's
---- any one?

They Double Click Right By Me
I'm making a software simulation using screen shots and invisible buttons.
I'm using this button script graciously supplied by a board member:
"create an input textbox, give this the variable name answer1 add the frame actions
Selection.setFocus("answer1");
stop();
and on the same frame also place a button.
add the following acrions to the button
on (release) {
studentAnswer = answer1.toLowerCase();
correctAnswer = "what the answer should be";
if (studentAnswer == correctAnswer) {
gotoAndStop(someFrame);
}
}"
The student is expected to fill in an input text blank correctly before he is allowed to move on in the tutorial. Much to my horror, what they've discovered is, if they double click (instead of single clicking like they're instructed to do), they skip right past the text blank and are taken to the next page of instructions. Is there any way of preventing this in the swf file?
Thanks, Mike

Double Click Help
I'm trying to set up a double click. I have a nav system that is a box the width of the stage and rests at the very bottom of the stage. When you click anywhere on the stage it slides up to that point. When you make a slection it goes back to it's original y position. I want to make it so that the user has to double click to bring the menu up though cause the single click interferes with my other buttons. I know I need to come up with a timer variable of some kind but I'm not quite sure how to do this. Any suggestions? I've included my .fla file. Please help me. Thanks.

Help With Double Click
First let me explain the set up of my movie. Create a square the size of the stage and turn it into a MC. Place it at the bottom of the stage so that only about 20-30 pixels of it are showing. Add this code to the MC...
onClipEvent (load) {
var valid = true;
newY = _y;
origY = _y;
Yspeed = 3;
a = 1.6;
d = 1.9;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
Yspeed = ((_y-newY)/a+Yspeed)/d;
_y -= Yspeed;
}
onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
if ((valid == true) and (_root._ymouse < 300)) {
newY = Math.ceil(_root._ymouse);
valid=false;
}else{
if ((valid == true) and (_root._ymouse > 300)) {
//if the mouse is below the minimum for the nav to show, it puts it at this point so it can be seen
newY = 300;
valid=false;
}
}
}
Now, I want to make the onClipEvent(mouseDown) occur on a double click. I'm not sure how to go about setting this up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've included my .fla file, it was created on a Mac though so sorry PC people. Please help me. Thanks for your time everyone.

Double Click
Can you make it where if you click on something the double click funtion will not work. For example, when you double click on my button if you click once no problem it goes to correct frame. If you double click it will go to correct fram on first click then the frame next to it on the second click. www.drywallparts.com

No Double Click At All
Hi guys. I never really dealt with double click in flash, but I've been always thinking it's just the same as any mouse event handling. Here is the simple test code I've made:
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class PureAS3Test extends Sprite
{
public function PureAS3Test()
{
if( stage )
init();
else
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
}
private function init(event:Event=null):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
var sprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
sprite.x = 0;
sprite.y = 0;
sprite.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000);
sprite.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,100);
sprite.graphics.endFill();
addChild(sprite);
sprite.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK,onDoubleClick);
}
private function onDoubleClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
trace("double click");
}
}
}
I'm really sick of clicking that red circle, but I got no event firing at all. I've changed windows double-click settings, have made another testing mouse listeners (all of them are firing) and all the things... None of them made effect.
What am I doing wrong???

IE Double Click
Anyone know how to get past the IE Double Click. I've created a flash animation where the entire background image is a URL link. In every browser (on the Mac and PC), except Internet Explorer on the PC, the user clicks once on the image and is taken to the appropriate page. BUT in IE, on the PC, the user has to click twice. WHY GOD WHY? Please help!

On Double Click Help
I have a button that has an on(press) and an on(release) handler, which makes an movieClip start and stop drag.
I want to add a double click handler also. To where you double click on the same button and something will happen, something like when you double
click the top bar of a window (PC) and it maximizes the window.
Can any one show me some AS that can have this?

Double Click
Along with my Multi Key class I was needing for a recent project, I have also been required to write a few applications that needed some minor double click detection. I took this opportunity to write a very simple class for detecting double clicks. It's really easy to use and has served it's purpose for me, if anyone wants to elaborate on, or use this class.. please feel free. I have included an example of the class and the code in the fla, and also a zip file with a ready example. Take Care.
DoubleClick.as:
ActionScript Code:
import lists.*;class DoubleClick{ // the target we are checking if is double clicked private var target:MovieClip = null; // the amount of time before the second click doesn't count as a double click private var DELAY:Number = 300; // a flag specifying whether or not the first click has been made private var firstClicked:Boolean = false; // the id of the interval that gets set to destroy the second click private var intID:Number; // the list that stores all objects listening for events private var listeners : ListenerList; /* Constructor */ public function DoubleClick(target:MovieClip) { this.target = target; // listen for events from the mouse Mouse.addListener(this); listeners = new ListenerList(); } // is called everytime the users presses the mouse private function onMouseDown():Void { if (target == null || target.hitTest(_xmouse, _ymouse)) { if (!this.firstClicked) { this.firstClicked = true; intID = setInterval(killInterval, this.DELAY); } else if (this.firstClicked) { invokeOnDoubleClicked(); this.firstClicked = false; killInterval(); } } } // destroys the interval, making sure the double click gets destroyed private function killInterval():Void { this.firstClicked = false; clearInterval(intID); } // adding and removing listeners public function addListener( o : Object ) : Boolean { return listeners.addListener(o); } public function removeListener( o : Object ) : Boolean { return listeners.removeListener(o); } // inokes the onDoubleClicked() event in all listeners private function invokeOnDoubleClicked() : Void { for (var i:Number = 0; i<listeners.count; i++) { listeners.getListener(i).onDoubleClicked(); } }}
FLA code:
ActionScript Code:
// create a new instance of DoubleClick, you can either pass in the movieclip you want to double click// or pass in nothing if you just want to listen for double clicks anywherevar dc = new DoubleClick(test_mc);// create a new instance of a listener object_obj = new Object();// our double click object is going to call onDoubleClicked() on all listeners, so we will need to define that function_obj.onDoubleClicked = onDC;// we then add _obj as a listener of our DoubleClick objectdc.addListener(_obj);// this is the definition of our onDoubleClicked() functionfunction onDC() : Void{ output.text = "You double clicked the movieclip";}

Has anyone actually used the MouseEvent DOUBLE_CLICK handler successfully? I cant seem to use it. The example in the help file which includes the DOUBLE_CLICK handler doesnt work either.
Its not critical for me as I can create my own double click handler but it would be good if the documented methods actually worked!

Double Click Or Not Double Click
Well I've got a bug in my code, where a button has to be double clicked to work.
Just wondering what is the standard distinction for the difference between single and double click.
my code
ActionScript Code:
ns.seek(0);
subtitles._visible = true;
sign._visible = true;
signer = 1;
signCode = 1;
_root.button(_root.butVT);
the idea is that it runs a function only when the above button is pressed, but it doesn't seem to work the first time you press the button any ideas?
