Hello, I had a chat consisting of a text field, a text area and 2 buttons to scroll the text area up and down. It worked fine.
Then I've decided to put all that stuff together inside of 1 mc, the AS 2.0 style. Unfortunately the buttons and the mouse wheel have stopped working and I haven't managed to fix them. I'm probably missing something very minor. Could someone please take a look at my code at http://preferans.de/chat/ I'm also pasting my class file here, since it is quite simple: class Chat extends MovieClip { private var field_txt:TextField; private var area_txt:TextField; private var up_btn:Button; private var down_btn:Button; public function Chat() { // will implement wheel scrolling myself this['mouseWheelEnabled'] = false; Key.addListener(this); Mouse.addListener(this); update_buttons(); } public function onKeyDown() { if (Key.getCode() == Key.ENTER && field_txt.text != '' && Selection.getFocus() == targetPath(field_txt)) { setText(getText()); Selection.setFocus(field_txt); } } public function onMouseDown() { if (Selection.getFocus() == targetPath(down_btn)) { area_txt.scroll--; update_buttons(); } else if (Selection.getFocus() == targetPath(up_btn)) { area_txt.scroll++; update_buttons(); } } public function onMouseWheel(lines:Number) { area_txt.scroll -= lines; update_buttons(); } public function getText():String { var str:String = field_txt.text; field_txt.text = ''; return str; } public function setText(str:String) { area_txt.scroll = area_txt.maxscroll; area_txt.text += newline + str; } private function update_buttons():Void { up_btn._visible = (area_txt.scroll > 1 ? true : false); down_btn._visible = (area_txt.scroll < area_txt.maxscroll ? true : false); } } Thank you Alex -- http://preferans.de _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
