Windows Keycodes
This isn't exactly Flash, but I can't find the answer anywhere on the net. I need a list of the keycodes for coding in Javascript. I was tweaking a script I found to suit my needs, and I wanted to know the codes for all letters. I know a==97 but that's all. Can somebody help me with them? Thanks.

Help With Keycodes
I made a short little game using shift to fire and space to jump and realized this controlls were very awkward. so i wanted to make it so you used z to jump and x to fire. could anyone help me out?
here's my current actionscript:
function detectKeys() {
var ob = _root.char;
var keyPressed = false;
if (Key.isDown(Key.SPACE) and !ob.jump and !ob.climb) {
// jump
ob.jump = true;
ob.jumpspeed = ob.jumpstart;
if (Key.isDown(Key.SHIFT) and getTimer()>ob.lastshot+ob.shootspeed) {
_root.shoot(ob);
}

Keycodes For The Mouse
Simple question:
I need to know the keycode to use in action script, when referring to the 'right click' of a mouse.
Like:
on (keypress "<???>") {
gotoAndStop("lose");
}
this is for a game, where if you rightclick, its cheating, so you go to the 'lose' frame.
i just need to know what to put there, for rightclicking.
lol its probly simple... i hope...
-thx

List Of KeyCodes?
Hello. I'm new to AS3, so go easy on me. =-)
I have code that enables some very basic manipulation of some test movie clips; rotating, scaling, etc. based on keyboard inputs.
However, these keyboard events are limited to the F keys, Enter, Delete, NumPad, i.e. the standard set of non-alphanumeric keys.
How do I get the movies to respond to the user pressing 'q', for example, or 't', or really any other 'mainstream' keyboard buttons? Is there a list of keyCodes out there that can help me, or am I thinking this through at the wrong angle? Thanks for any help. =-)

Simple Question: How To Get Keycodes?
I started to use Senocular's "KeyObject" class so I can detect multiple key presses. I can detect the named keys just fine using (in this example using the LEFT key):
Code:
if (key.isDown(Keyboard.LEFT))
or
Code:
if (key.isDown(key.LEFT))
But how do I detect the "w" key for instance? I know I would need to get the keycode for it, but I can't find the simple function call that returns the keycode for a given key.
Thanks for any help, I am going crazy trying to find the solution for this seemingly simple problem.

[F8] 2 Questions (export In First Frame, And Keycodes)
hey guys, just a couple of questions
#1 - i dynamically attach my background music based on certain conditions of my game. it seems i'm forced to do "export in first frame" in linkage, otherwise, it doesn't seem to work). my problem is the loader. the pre-loader doesn't start until all resources that are marked "export in 1st frame" are downloaded. so my movie seems like its frozen during the first 500 kb.
any way around it?
#2 - i made my game's control to be customizeable. so i have a screen that tell's the user the what key is assigned to what function (i.e. Jump = "space key")
right now, i'm using my own function to convert the keycodes to their corresponding "string" (i.e. "space" = 32). is there an internal flash function that can do this form me? String.fromCharCode() doesn't seem to be doing the trick.
thanks

Keycode Trace Function Not Outputting All Keycodes

Using KeyCodes/Event Listeners To Naviaget Prev/next Label
Hi there, hope someone can help me. The code I've posted below effectively navigates from frame label to frame label using a mouse click eventListener. What has me stumped is I need to alter the code so specific keyboard presses trigger the navigation instead of mouse events, similar to powerpoint functionality:
Next label = keycode 40 & 32 ( Down arrow and space bar)
Previous frame (back to last bullet item) = keycode 38 (up arrow)
I made a vain attempt using KeybaordEvent, but this detects any keyboard action, not a specific key. Unfortunately, this is just a tad beyond my skillset so I would really appreciate some assistance!
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, seekNextLabel);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, prevFrameLabel);
/*move forward to next label... need to use DOWN arrow AND space bar
instead of mouseclick*/
function seekNextLabel(event:MouseEvent) {
var temp:String = currentLabel;
while(currentLabel == temp && currentFrame < totalFrames) {
nextFrame();
}
stop();
if(currentFrame == totalFrames) {
gotoAndStop(1);
}
trace(currentLabel);
trace(currentFrame);
}
/*back up one frame from current label (to end of last bullet point)
uses key_up event, want to use UP arrow*/
function prevFrameLabel(whichEvent:Event):void {
var startLabel:String = this.currentLabel;
while (currentLabel == startLabel) {
prevFrame();
if (currentFrame == 1) {
break;
}
}
trace(currentLabel);
trace(currentFrame);
}
Thanks much,

Keycodes And "if" Statements And Operators, Oh My
I need to create a rather advanced "if" statement.
It has to do with keycodes. On keyup I want the script to advance, but only if a number key is pressed. In a nutshell it will work like this. If you hit a key, Flash will check if it's a number by seeing if it falls in the range of allowable keycodes, if it is then the script advances. The keycodes for the regular keyboard numbers start at 48 and end at 57. The keypad number codes start at 96 and go to 105.
My very rough guess looks something like this:
onClipEvent (keyUp) {
if (Key.getCode() is between 48 and 57 or 96 and 105) {
then advance the script
yadda...
yadda...
yadda...
}
}
The trouble is I have no idea how to create this seemingly simple line of code. Would anybody be so good as to help me with it?
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Flash Popup Adverts/windows That Aren't Windows
Hi there
Just wondering if anyone knows any links to tutorials to make those flash adverts you find on websites? They are actual popup windows but flash boxes that appear above a webpage.
I think they use div layers as well as some flash? But im not sure where to find a tutorial!
For an example visit:
http://www.channel4.com/4car/news/index.jsp
(you might need to click on several pages down the left to get one to appear)
Any help on this would be a great help.
Thanks

How To Create 'Windows' Windows With Flash?
I'd like to create a windows system like the one we use on windows. This is what i really like:
Yo have some buttons. When u click on any of 'em a popup window opens (inside could be text, image or movieclips or all of 'em). Last window it opens always shows up on top and if u select one that it's behind this comes automaticly to the top. I'd love too if u could minimize 'em and also if eacho one opens into a new swf.
There is a example of what I want here:
http://senocular.com/flash/source.php?id=0.49
But in that example everything is in the same swf, and as I said some lines before I want each window to open into another swf.
...........hope u can help me. Thanks!

Windows Emulator.... Having Trouble With Minimizing The "windows".
I'm creating a website that will behave kinda' like Windows. I have a basic menu that when you click on an option, a window will open up. You can drag the windows and close them. However, I'm having trouble with the minimizing part.
Lets say that I have 3 "windows" (each is a movie clip) called "win1", "win2", and "win3". Each window has an instance of a minimize button. When you click the button, the window should minimize to the bottom of the screen, and line up in the order that it was minimized in (just like Windows). I figured out how to get them to minimize, but I can't get them to sort themselves correctly.
Lets say that I just minimized all three windows in this order:
win1, win2, win3
Now, if I click on win1 to maximize it, I want win2 and win3 to shift over to the left to take the place of win1. Then, if I minimize win1 again, it should go to the end of the row. Resulting in this order:
win2, win3, win1
Does anyone know of any code that I could make these windows sort themselves when they are minimized and maximized?
Thanks!

Interesting Issue With Flash And Windows - Flash Start With Windows?
Hey guys,
I'm programming a flash application that would run on a user's desktop (using MDM or similar programs to convert to a transparent background EXE).
My client would like to have the users select weather they want to application to start with windows or not. I would like to know how to make my flash application start with Windows without manually adding it (the users won't have to add it to the startup folder themselves). Can flash write to the registry? Can a third party program do it for me? The client wanted to EXE to run without an installation. Thank you very much!

Windows To Mac To Windows Problem
I'm a Mac user and I'm working on a large project with a client who is using Windows XP. My client is creating some Flash content in Windows and then sending the .swfs to me to incorporate into the site.
These files play fine on my computer. I upload them to my web server and my Windows-based clients are able to view them over the web. However, if I email the .swfs back to my client, they won't run on the Windows computer. This is a problem, since it's my client who will ultimately be hosting the site.
There is no problem with .swfs that I publish on my computer and then email to my client.
Any ideas?

Launching Flash Windows From Flash Windows
Please can someone help me.
I am trying to create my own personal portfolio on cd. The main interface is a swf and contains a list of buttons (which are the titles of my work). When these buttons are pressed I want to launch a new flash window ontop of the existing one containing the piece of work.
I have looked at javascript popup windows using dreamweaver but have had no luck. I don't know whether this is because you have to use http's or that im thick and have no knowledge of javascript.
If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. I am using Flash MX if it makes a difference. If the solution is using javascript or html can please explain it to me like a 5 year old because I don't know what im doing.
Cheers

Pop Up Windows
Hi everybody,
I'm going crazy trying to understand how to make this "simple thing" possible.
I have to open, at button release, a new browser
window, with a certain size, without status bar,
with a certain content and so on.
In Html there's no problem at all there's thousand's of javacode for this.
The problems start with flash:
I can use geturl but How I can directly tell the browser
to open a window with the desired dimensions?
For the moment I can open a blak window with the javacode
that opens a third window (the one I desire).
Not so elegant don't you think?
Thanks in advance

Pop Up Windows
I have been working on updating a website I did about 6 months ago. The client wants to have pop up windows of some of the tattoos that don't show up very well at a max hieght or width of 300 pixels. Doing the pop up is no problem. The problem is that I don't know how to set the size of the pop up window in Flash. I don't want a whole new page to open and have a bunch of empty space around the image. If someone could fill me in on the code for Flash 4, or 5, I would appreciate it. The whole site is in Flash and need to have this functionality in Flash. If you want to check it out, its http://www.alienartstattoo.com

Pop-up Windows
Hi. I need a little help with Pop-up windows. Here's my situation - I am running my website from one main html document, loading my movie from there. Each section of my website is simply just loaded and unloaded movie clips. Now... In my portfolio section...I call up a movie into level 2 which basically just displays my thumbnails. I want to set up the links so that the thumbnails will open individual little pop-up windows. Now I have tested the pop-up code on my root movie. It works. But it wont work on the loaded movie which is sitting on level 2. Is that my problem - You can only do it from the root level 0? Is it a publishing problem?
Thanx,
Doug
