From Right Click Problem TO Internal Setup Script (-:
i was using the following code to detect right click (right mouse down) :
Code:
// mouse down function_global.checkdown = ASnative(800,2);// check the right mouse down ( can check other mouse buttons as well)checkMouse = function(){ // left = checkDown(1) // middle = checkDown(4) // right = checkDown(2)right = checkDown(2)if(right){ // do stuff here trace("right click detected ! ...") }}// update on frame enter_root.onEnterFrame = checkMouse;
but i dun like to use "onEnterFrame" here which can causeperformance issues. If this isnt reasonable for u : i dun like itto check the statement all the time. not good practice...I want to have an event handler like "onRightDown".we can have it but i dun want "onEnterFrame"so i tried this one :
Code:
_global.checkdown = ASnative(800,2); var skin = {}checkMouse = function(){right = checkDown(2)if(right){trace("right click detected ! ...") }}Mouse.addListener(skin)skin.onMouseDown = checkMouse
but it seems, the name "onMouseDown" is fake coz it just works for the left mouse button. so ....the onMouseDown event handler doesnt invoke the "checkMouse" function. Later i found out that ASnative(800,2) is "Key.isDown" method. the following works :
Code:
checkRight = function(){ if(Key.isDown(4)){trace("right click detected ! ...") }}_root.onEnterFrame = checkRight
so we think that we can use the onKeyDown event handler forour purpose but we again cant do it. the following code duznt work :
Code:
var skin = {} checkRight = function(){if(Key.isDown(4)){trace("right click detected ! ...") }}Key.addListener(skin)skin.onKeyDown = checkRight
before asking my main question, we have these stuff : * ASnative(800,2) is the "Key.isDown" method or the same function that duz the same thing* So it s acceptable that "onMouseDown" duznt work ... maybe internally it s passed to the Mouse object when setting up classes, objects, etc....* this method ( ASnative(800,2) ) is a plain function that infact duznt belongto the Key object internally ( which probably is setup with internal script to belong to )Because, otherwise "onKeyDown" would work with the Key object. And i dun know, how to avoid this for the Key object to work ... i m sleepy n i m kinda confused + does anyone have an idea or know how this can be set up ?i have used AsBroadcaster in some stuff i ve done. So i know about events / event handling / broadcasting ...+ i want to know how events r broadcasted internally ? like : if we left click the mouse . how does it happen ?
Code:
// when the event occurs : /* 1 */ Mouse.broadcastMessage("onMouseDown")// n this executes the "onMouseDown" function on listeners ?//or 2 ASnative correspondant function (named "onMouseDown") is fired directly ?
if anyone knows stuff about these, i d really like to know ( the stuff mostly on the compiling level) cheers...

Setup
Ok, so I finished my website and just put it on the internet and it takes way too long to load, well about 10 seconds before the preloader. So I asked yesterday how to work this out and I tried it but it didnt really work and just messed my site up (doing it that way would have been better from the start). But, so now I am asking how everyone else sets up their sites. Using cuteFTP, how to you piece your sites together.
Thanks for your input.

Or could anyone give me the way to pack a lot into a single windows *setup*(.exe) file?

Swf Setup In Table

Do I simply need to extent the heigth of these margin gif's beyond all

Electroserver Setup
I recently got an account with webgamehost.com, which uses Electroserver.
Webgamehost sent me an email with my port number.
I have downloaded the Electroserver sample files, and I am trying to get them to work. (I am trying "chat_fullfeatured.swf" and "chat_barebones.swf")
I have done the following:
I have installed the ES actionscript objects into my copy of Flash MX.
I have altered the FLA's of the chat examples to point to my domain as following:
Code:
ES = new ElectroServerAS();
ES.ip = "www.robotplayground.com";
ES.port = XXXX;
I have uploaded the two chat example swf's to my main 'web' folder on my hosting server (webgameshost).
I have uploaded "ElectroserverAS.as" and "wddx_mx.as" to the same directory.
The chat programs do not appear to be connecting.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Setup Listener?
Hy,
Simple one, I need to setup listeners...
descr. path / instance
-------------------------------------------------
1. I have a MC on stage : _root.my_mc
2. Inside that one another mc : _root.my_mc.color
-------------------------------------------------
Now I need a listener for _root.my_mc.color (2), when the value of this listener is changed it needs to activate the code below. That code will color a MC (some background) with the value from the listener
my color code :
-----------------------------------------------------------
temp_color = color.split("#")[1]; // color value loaded from .txt file
mycolor = new Color(_root.my_mc.color);
mycolor.setRGB("0x"+temp_color);
-------------------------------------------------
So basically, how to setup a listener and how to "broadcast" to one and make it do stuff ?
Thankz....

[F8] Menu Bar Help Setup
Hi guys,
I am pretty new to flash and currently working on setting up a button type menu. That then when clicked shows more options...
Similar to the one here: http://f-source.com/flash-menus/Vista_navigation_bar/
(The sub options)
If you look at my current website: www.etrenank.net
You see that I have RPG options at the bottom. I would like those to come out of the flash when the user clicks "RPG Main" Similar to how the Vista Navigation bars work.
I will include a link to my FLA. Please let me know what you can do to help!

Setup Client Help
Erm, I've seen it done before - but I haven't a clue how to do it.
Some people like to make their flash games downloadable to people who don't own Flash CS3 or whatever on their computer. The flash game "Chaos Faction" used to have a Setup Client you could download, install to your C drive (or whichever destination you choose), and play without owning Flash - or the .swf player that comes with it.
How do you do this? And with what programs?
Thank you much for your help and time,
Matt

Help Me With My Money Setup
Hi there everyone! I have a problem... i have set up the system in flash so that i can buy and sell stuff... I have several buttons on the page which use the following actionscript (as well as the rest)...
Quote:
if (Number(money) == 0) {
_root.gotoAndStop (16);
}
}
The 'money' corresponds to the dynamic text with that variable name...
The idea is that when i click to buy stuff, the money (as above) goes down and when it hits 0 it goes to frame 16. It does indeed do this!
However i want to change the code above so that anything below 0 (i.e. minus numbers included) takes me to frame 16 also...
Sorry, I'm a total noob at this but any help would be much appreciated!

How To Setup A ClassPath?
I am very new to Action script. I was following a Lynda tutorial on Action 3.0. Because the presenter uses a Mac and not PC, I didn't quite get what the path should be. What path should I be point this Classpath to? Is it to my .fla folder or to my .as folder? Anyway, what I end up in doing is pointing this path to my .as folder. However, when I did the Linkage to a button, the tutorial said to check on the Export for Action and Export in first frame check boxes; however, I'm not sure what to type for the Base class. I tried to type in my class name but it didn't work.
Will someone explain what the Classpath should be and how/what the Base class should be for Linkage?
Many thanks in advance.

Fooling SETUP.EXE
I am currently creating a marketing CD for products my company is a reseller for. All going fine and looking good.
Except for two applications that have rubbish setup programs that expect to be run from the root of a CD...
As expected this is a Flash movie autorunning from Root with and EVALS folder and all the apps installing from there. Six of which work fine with install buttons set to
fscommand ("exec", "EVALS\APPLICATION\SETUP.EXE");
but for these other two it aint happening.
If you run the setup program directly from that folder then they work...
so I created swf's in the folder that were loaded into the main movie and run the button ensapsulated within them, seemed to work off the hard drive not on the CD.
Next attempt, create EXE flash movies of the install button that get launched from the main Movie and then run the setup from there, still no joy!
However if I run the created flash EXEs from the folder directly than the launched setup program works...
So what I need to do is launch these EXE movies without the hang up of the original movies starting folder.
Thinking of sticking a little batch file and doing it that way I am so desparate!
any ideas?

Best Way To Setup Image Map Rollovers?
Hi
Heres what Im trying to achieve: Ive drawn a map of the UK with all the different areas marked out. I wish the map to be an image map so that clicking on different areas of the map links to different sites. Also, I wish each area to have a mouse-over so when the mouse is hovered it changes color.
Im not sure of the best and most efficient way to approach this? Is there a way of avoiding having many copies of the map each with a different area highlighted and making a different copy appear upon different mouseovers? And should I use layers to make the image map?
Any help greatly appreciated!

Script To Launch Setup.exe
In Flash MX what is the Action Script I need so that when somebody clicks the “Install Software” button it closes Flash Projector and executes Setup.exe to begin installing a program from the CD the Flash demo resides on? It must be a relative reference.
Page Setup And Area?
Hi
I'm a flash newbie and would like to know what a good page size is to setup a site.
I've set one up with 747 wide by 345 high. Sounds ok?
Also I want to make animations that start off the page but when I preview or publish preview the animations can be seen on the preview.
The visable page that I have setup (canvas), Items off the canvas can be seen.
Can you turn this off?
It doesn't leave much room for error.
Thanks
Need Advice On Setup Of Site
Ok, I am building this site for my company. I have a main scene with two main navigation buttons (at top) which, when clicked on, load their respective scenes on top of the main scene.
On the right hand side are some boxes which will contain buttons for the portfolio section. I need help on how to set this up. I want those buttons always visible and accessable. If I load it as another scene, the peices will flash, because the main navigation is on the main scene, so each time a button in clicked it will "load" the portfolio scene.
If i keep this section on the main timeline (scene), I need the playhead on the main time line to rest in a certain place so that the other sections (environment, location) do not load on top of a portfolio piece.
I hope this makes sense.

How To Setup For A Cd For Cross Platform Use?
I was hoping someone out there could help me out. I am relatively new to Flash. I am working with flash mx 2004, and am designing some interactive invitations for a wedding. First I was wondering how I can program a button to print. There is some text on a page that has all the invitation details (ie location, time, etc) I would like for the recipient to just press a button within the movie and have it print out on their printer. My second question or problem lies in the final product. When I am finished I would like to have these burned onto cds to be sent out. I would like for the info to be able to be opened in both MAC and PC environments (I am working on a MAC), and if possible would like it to be an auto run on the PC. The way I have it designed right now their are about 8 different pages, each page is its own file and I have linked them using the action script prompt:
on(release) {
loadMovieNum("menu.swf",0);
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Site Design + Setup
Hi there-
I've been using Flash for awhile, mostly for simple Intro's, games or very basic sites.
I'm now moving in to the world of creating more complex Flash based sites and I was wondering if there were any guides out there on how to tackle web design in Flash. Specifically I am loss on how to set things up. If it would be easier to make a bunch of seperate files for each part. ie: menu and main block of text. I'm also a little lost on how to use levels effectively since I have heard using Scenes is not always the best idea.
My goal is to come up with a process to make more complex and a somewhat easily updatable flash site.
If anyone has a paticular book or tutorial they read that was helpful in their learning that would be great. I have a lot of expierence with HTML site design if that makes any difference, just trying to figure out how to adjust my thinking to Flash.
Thanks

Help W/ Setup Actionscript On Riddle..
Hey everyone, i have some experience with basic flash stuff, but i am looking for some advise on how to start something that will need some scripting. Ill keep it as simple as possible.
Im setting up a flash site..
the swf will progress to a certain point where user is presented with a riddle and then stops.
I want to have some kind of text input field (form i guess). The user can enter an answer. if the answer is incorrect, then nothing will happen.
If the answer supplied is correct, then the movie will go to and play the next frame(s).
Any thoughts? If not, then could anyone direct me to a relevant tutorial. Ive gone through them but i havnt yet found anything.
Thanks a lot!

[f8] Unusual Loading Bar Setup
Hello All!
So, I have a Flash page which is waiting for the implementation of a loading bar, right now it is up on my universtiy account:
https://webspace.utexas.edu/sittem/F...f?uniq=-95rxlc
(I just set it to public so hopefully no one will have trouble viewing)
A disclaimer before you visit this - this page takes a really long time to load, thus the reason I am intent on a loading bar that works! (My client needs the huge jpgs (didnt want me to make them vector) so what can I do?)
I have done various loading bar tutorials on this site, gotten loading bars to work in the past, here is my unique problem: This site is one "background" site (the book background) with 10 smaller .swfs on top of it that load on a higher plane. So I need the bar to be aware of this... situation.
I know I could combine these into one swf, but I like the artchitecture of the site how it is and would prefer it to stay in tact. If anyone has any advice on how to differently construct the action script for the Loading Bar, or have seen any tutorials that address this issue, please share with me!
[F8] (newb) Website Setup?
Hi, I just started using Flash yesterday, and I'm kind of stuck.
http://www.brandonhuggett.ca/demo/main.html
basically, right now I have the intro animation, then when they click the enter button it plays the movie file of the main page. Is this the proper way to be doing it, or should it be on a different scene or something?
What I want is for the projector sound to stop, then have the effect of the screen burning away, into the main menu, and also new music to start playing.
Any tutorials on doing this?
Thanks for any and all help.
