2 digits in an on(keyPress "") ActionScript command??

Is there any way to use the keyboard to type in 2 digits in
an on(keyPress "") command?
For example:
on(keyPress"21"){this.gotoAndStop(21);
to jump to frame 21?
I am trying to create a slideshow style presentation, but
have the ability to jump to various frames (more than 9 frames).
thanks

Thank you for taking the time to help me.
I tried your AS on the button I was using in frame 1, and
then tried various things once it didn't work. I couldn't add it to
the button I was using, so I tried it on frame 1, in an Actions
layer; still nothing. I tried different targets too, but to no
avail.
I searched for lastKeyCode and prevKeyPressTime but didn't
find any information on those scripts.
Thanks

Keypress actionscript 2

Hello,
I need some assistance with an animation that I would like to make.
I would like the user to hit a key on their keyboard (d for example) and when
they do it will gotoandPlay("20") frame 20?
I know the actionscript for buttons but I have never done actual keyboard
keys before so i'm not sure what the best way to approach it would be.
Thankyou very much for your help!

Try the following. The trace line inside the function should be commented out when publishing, but during development it will help you to identify which keys have which codes. Also, you used quotes in your example of the gotoAndPlay... only use quotes when using frame label strings, not for frame numbers or variables.
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
Key.addListener(keyListener);
keyListener.onKeyUp = function(){
trace(Key.getCode());
if(Key.getCode() == 68) gotoAndPlay(20);

Need emergency help for simple actionscript commands.

I havent touched flash for awhile and am now using flash professional to try and create a simple visual prop.
I used to be able to have the movieclip stop on the first frame and then use the keyboard (anykey) to advance frame by frame in the timeline. Now I cant seem to do it and it just keeps playing through and loops in the publish preview.
As this is now actionscript 3, Im not familiar with how this is being controlled.
Help would be greatly appreciated as I have to get this out the door tomorrow.
JM

See the following posting: I'D LIKE TO CHANGE MY CODE FROM USING THE LEFT KEY=PREVIOUS FRAME/ RIGHT KEY= NEXT FRAME TO ANY KEY=NEXT FRAME. HERE IS MY CODE.
The difference with yours would be that instead of using nextFrame(); inside the function, yours would just use play();

Flash Player v.10 ignores actionscript 2.0 or 3.0 commands.

Hi,
I am using Flash CS3, and have downloaded and installed the latest version 10 flash player from Adobe site.
When I create a new flash document, I select "actionscript 2.0" for the new document.
Having completed the animation when I test the file (Control > Test Movie) the swf file runs from frame 1 till the end ignoring the stop(); and gotoAndPlay(); and all other actionscript commands in between.
So I send the fla file to my friend, he sends me an swf file which obeys all the actionscript commands in the fla file.
The same thing happens if I create a new actionscript 3.0 flash document and make it into an swf file.
Why is this happening ? How do I remedy this.
Thanks, regards,

Yes, I did manage to get around it but it was by a lot of trial and error, and fluke.
Always open a new flash document as Flash File (Actionscript 3.0) document. You can save it as Flash CS3 Document .fla file or Flash 8 Document .fla file. It works. At least this is what happened to me.
All the best.

Error: "DoFunction fork failed" in the Messaging Server 3.x logs on Digital Unix or AIX

Receiving error message DoFunction fork failed in the Messaging Server 3.x logs
on Digital Unix or AIX.

The dxkerneltuner command is one way to raise the number of user
processes on Digital Unix. Steps follow:
<OL>
<LI>Login as root (or su to root) on Digital Unix and execute the
dxkerneltuner command.
An X-Windows window will pop up with a list of
kernel subsystems (tuning categories).

<LI>Double-click the "proc" subsystem.

A child window will pop up, displaying parameters in that category, along with
their associated values and limits. These should include parameters
named "max-proc-per-user" and "max-threads-per-user", which are by default,
64 and 267 respectively.

These should be replaced by values more
consistent with the Messaging Servers resource requirements. Provided
the default Messaging Server installation is used, more appropriate values
for these parameters would be 640 and 2560 respectively.

<LI>To implement
these new values, replace the value 64 with 640 for max-proc-per-user in the
child window and replace the value 267 with 2560 for max-thread-per-user.
<LI>Click OK on the child window and exit the parent window.
<LI>Reboot Digital Unix to implement the kernel changes.

I have bkp OD, trash server.app / reboot / install server.app again and working fine now.
Thanks !

Actionscript code can be seen in a search, but not seen in Actions Panel nor symbol

I purchased a template which has flash menu buttons. The current button url's go to index.html, index-2.html, index-3.html, and so on. I want to change these. In Flash, I searched for index-3.html and it finds it at the location: Symbol 'Button2 copy 3' -> Layer 'Layer 4' -> Frame '1' and the actionscript command is: getURL("index-3.html");
Everything is fine so far. However, when I double-click the symbol and go to the location (or double-click the search result), the actionscript command cannot be found at all. I tried pressing F9 to open the Actions Panel, and I see the button symbol but I don't see any actionscript commands associated with it. It seems to be very unusual - the search picks up the actionscript command but it can't be seen in the symbol's location where it says it is nor can it be seen in the Actions Panel. The script does work but it just cannot be seen! Does anyone know how to see the actionscript code in the Actions Panel or in the button symbol?

Actionscript in LiveCycle

I'm in need of using some actionscript commands, is it possible to include that same commands into the livecycle??

No actionscript is used in Flex/Flash technology.
In LiveCycle forms, Javascript or an internal language called FormCalc is available.

Digital Trigger Vs Software Trigger.

I'm running an MCC USB-FS1608 DAQ to measure multiple analog voltage channels. I also have a digital in TTL coming from an MTS 407 frequency controller. Inside my VI, I read a rising TTL signal from the MTS, send a signal to switch on the digital out, then I start my data acquisition. At 1 Hz, would it be better to control my digital out, (which sends a run command to the MTS which then actuates a hydraulic piston) with a hardware trigger?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hardware communication in the sense that you are referring to is not necessarily universal. Especially when utilizing third party hardware/drivers. If the drivers they have created are built on top of NI-DAQmx then you could possibly use our functions to do this. To do the functionality you are wanting you would need to:
-Configure Digital Output task with the channel you want to output on
-Configure Digital Start Trigger giving it the channel you want to read from (TRIG_IN). For some hardware, they might allow rising edge triggers as well as falling edge triggers which would then be some property you would have to set.
-Configure write task to output a digital high or 1 on your digital output channel
-Start task
-Loop until finished
-Clear task
This is about as general and universal as it gets but the actual implementation of each step might be different based on the driver. Physically, the only changes you would have to make are wiring your digital start trigger into the TRIG_IN input instead of into one of the digital input lines.

.flv with command at the end

Hey there,
I have created a SWF file that streams an FLV file.
What I would like to do, is have an actionscript command activate AFTER the FLV has played to the end of the movie.
Is there a code for something like this?

you can use:
var lo:Object = new Object();
lo.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
//your as command
yourFLVPBC.addEventListener("complete", lo);

Actionscript that runs Flash animation

Hi
I tried out the 101 flash tutorial here -
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/flash/articles/flacs3_createfla_02.html
The animation works fine (the circle moves from left to right
thanks
to a "motion tween") but can I see the actionScript code for
that?
The question is essentially, if you make a flash animation
using this
GUI editor, can you see the actionScript commands that drive
this
animation? e.g. I have Alias Maya before and that generates
MEL script
code for all animations so you can control your animation via
the GUI
editor in addition to a script editor also
This would be useful if you could switch between GUI view and
command-editor view for your animation - I could not locate
this on
the net ...
Thanks

Ok, I'm a bit confused. When you boot into safe mode, does it work? If so, then it's definitely a service/utility that is being loaded on boot (in normal mode) that is conflicting. My first inclination is to suspect the virus/security software that you have installed.
Normally, I'd use the tool "msconfig" to turn different items off until I discovered the culprit. However, sometimes this isn't enough for a virus scanner. So, to start I'd try temporarily uninstalling your virus/security software, then rebooting into normal mode to see if that makes a difference.
If it fixes the problem, then I'd recommend contacting the security company to see what they'd recommend.
If it still occurs, then try using msconfig to selectively disable apps/services until you've found the problem.

When cmd+shift+d does not work on a mac, here's what to do.

I have been trying to authorize my new Macbook Pro 2011 for weeks. (I set up and authorized my iPhone with no problem.) Whenever I try to authorize my computer using the Digital Editions instructions given at the bottom of this post, I get the message:
Activation Server error - code E_AUTH_NOT_READY
Digital Editions encounter an error on the activation server.
I've read all the forums and tried everything. To deal with this problem, the answers in the forums say to deauthorize my computer and the reauthorize it but, no matter what I do, I cannot get it to deauthorize. i have tried opening ADE and hitting Command+Shift+D--using command because I have a mac--(tried this in library view and in reader view) but nothing happens. This is different from so many others who have solved this problem using Command+Shift+D. When I hit Command+Shift+D, nothing happens at all. I get no screen so I cannot hit Erase Authorization. I don't know how to get rid of the authorization that must exist somewhere but I don't know where. Only after I get rid of it, will I be able to reautorize my computer so I can read ebooks from the library, etc.
I also tried uninstalling ADE 2.0 and then reinstalling it. I did not get the set-up wizard to help me authorize my computer. So I went to the Help menu and chose "Authorize Computer" and got a window titled "Authorize Your Computer." The eBook Vendor was already shown as Adobe ID. All I had to do was enter my Adobe ID and Password. I did this (which worked successfully on my iPhone) and got the same error screen message noted above:
Adobe Digital Editions
An Error Has Been Detected
Activation Server error - code E_AUTH_NOT_READY
Digital Editions encounter an error on the activation server.
To retry, click the Try Again button.
Cancel button Try Again button
When I hit "Try Again," the same error message just comes up.
I decided to try step 5 in the instructions below so I navigated to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions. There was a document named "activation.dat" and a file named "Voucher." I dragged the activation.dat file to the trash.
I returned to the Help menu and chose "Authorize Computer" and got a window titled "Authorize Your Computer." The eBook Vendor was already shown as Adobe ID. All I had to do was enter my Adobe ID and Password. I did this and THIS TIME I WAS SUCCESSFUL. I got the following message screen:
Adobe Digital Editions
Your Computer Has Been Authorized
This computer has been successfully authorized to [email protected] with a Vendor ID.
You are now ready to read Adobe DRM protected items on this machine, and easily transfer them between devices.
SPECTACULAR!!!
SO FOR THOSE MAC USERS WHO HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DEAUTHORIZE THEIR COMPUTERS USING COMMAND+SHIFT+D, TRY DRAGGING YOUR activation.dat FILE (LOCATION GIVEN ABOVE) TO THE TRASH. THEN TRY TO AUTHORIZE YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN BY OPENING ADE 2.0, CLICKING ON THE HELP MENU, CHOOSING AUTHORIZE COMPUTER, ENTERING YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AND PASSWORD, CLICKING ON AUTHORIZE (OR WHATEVER THAT RIGHT BUTTON IS), AND YOU WILL MOST LIKELY GET THE MESSAGE THAT YOUR COMPUTER HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED.
I hope this helps. I have been trying for weeks to figure out how to solve this problem and for hours today. So I hope this solution will help those who have the problem I had with the Command+Shift+D not working.
I followed these instructions
Instructions from webpage: http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/error-e_act_not_ready.html
Issue
When you activate Adobe Digital Editions 2.0, you receive the error, "E_AUTH_NOT_READY."
Solution
This error occurs when the authorization information is damaged. Follow the below steps to rebuild the Activation file.
Mac OS
1. Open Adobe Digital Editions.
2. Press Command+Shift+D to deauthorize Adobe Digital Editions.
3. Select Erase Authorization.
4. Click OK and Quit Adobe Digital Editions.
5. Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion.
7. Open Adobe Digital Editions and reauthorize.

I have just encountered the same problem and all the same frustrations as karliekate, except that I haven't got a new eReader. I just use my PC, so I don't know what might have caused this. The Adobe Help (!!) pages say to contact the eBook provide (the library) whose site says contact Adobe, although it should be well known by now that software producers like Adobe, Apple, Microsoft and many others are completely indifferent to their customers' problems.

How do I open one .mxml from another?

I suppose I would make a "link" some how, just like in an html page. What would the URL look like? What is the ActionScript command to open that other .mxml file? (Which may be a form or just another page)
Thanks in advance.

to open another .mxml file within your project? Like a sub window within your main app? You can do it as a popup;
var win:[MXML FILE NAME] = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, [MXML FILE NAME], true) as [MXML FILE NAME];
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(win);
or, if it's a completely different app you're trying to link to;
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('http://wherever/the/compiled/html/is.html'),'_self');
quite unsure about what exactly you want though...
