Re: [Flashcoders] as3 to iphone app
So I've watched the video and one thing concerns me a little. From what I can tell, there is no way to simulate the touch and gesture events on your machine (Adobe has stated in the past that an iPhone virtual machine will not work). So to debug, you have to: Export (a process the video's narrator says is much slower than swf export) Uninstall, old version (maybe) Install new version Manually Launch This is a lot of steps for those of us used to quick testing! Additionally, it looks like you have to be an apple developer before you can even export a test app, meaning a $100 fee just to experiment. -jonathan On Fri, Dec 11, 2009 at 12:38 PM, Kevin Newman capta...@unfocus.com wrote: Thanks!

[Flashcoders] Enter key to activate focused button
I have set up a custom Tab order, so the Tab key moves through the interactive elements (buttons) of my SWF in the order I want. I then want the Enter key to execute the code for whichever button has focus (as if that button was clicked). I can't work out how to add a listener that listens for the Enter key to be pressed and then execute the code the button (as suggested by Karl: thanks). Can anybody provide a code snippet for this? I have tried to find a solution in the online help system for Flash, but that system is sadly lacking. For instance, if I select This Help system only and do a search for addEventListener I get no results - which seems ludicrous to me. How is it possible that the term addEventListener does not exist anywhere in the Flash Help system? Alan Neilsen This message is for the named persons use only.

Re: [Flashcoders] Enter key to activate focused button
You need to do a listener for the keyboard and then check what key was pressed by tracing its keyCode value. Then do an if statement seeing if the keycode pressed is equal to the Enter key keycode and then run your code that will execute just like if the viewer clicked the movieclip.
