[Flashcoders] Tabbing in SWF Vanished! Bug?
I have some streaming .flv videos online using the default FLVPlayer skins that have been up for months -- long enough for me to forget about the projects. This week I pulled one up to show someone on the team and noticed I could not tab to the controls in the swf, nor activate the swf itself via tab. Considering how much 508 work we do, I am fairly confident that our QA wouldn't have let this slip past -- but anything is possible. Anyone else run into suddenly inoperative tabbing, potentially involving a player update. Might also be limited to Flash default components. (Using FocusManager perhaps?)

[Flashcoders] tabbing in flash
hello list, simple question for youis there anyway to modify the yellow bounding box around form fields when tabbing through them? I've tried searching the livedocs for something on the subject, but apparently i'm not using the right keyword here as nothing is coming up to help. thanks in advance. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com 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
Re: [Flashcoders] tabbing in flash
JAh, If it is what I think it is, you need to dive into (and set the) tabIndex object.tabIndex tells Flash that tabs are specifically directed to specific fields instead of objects on the screen.

thanks. apparently one has to treat it as skinning a component.

Re: [Flashcoders] tabbing in flash
I think you can't change the yellow rectangle - you can only change the color on FlashLite (Flash for mobiles). So if you want to use your own solution, you need to turn that feature off (as mentioned before), and implement something similar on your own. hth, Matthias 2007/2/12, Jah [EMAIL PROTECTED]: thanks. apparently one has to treat it as skinning a component.

Re: [Flashcoders] Tabbing and Components (again) ...
i had this problem a while back and was able to solve it...but i cant
remeber exactly what i did.
i think i had to set focusManger to false on every onKillFocus event. so if
you had 1 combo box and two input text fields, you would need to write, for
every component and text field:
instanceName.onKillFocus = function():Void{
_root.focusManager.enabled = false;
}
also, for the next project i worked on, I used the mCom components (
http://www.metaliq.com/mcom/) http://www.metaliq.com/mcom/ and found that
they dont suffer from this problem at all.

Hi,
I have a flash application that has a couple of combo box components and a

Trying to tab between my text fields doesn't work, even though they are
all tab enabled and have tab indexes.
The reason for this, I have recently found out, is due to the combo box
component - it breaks the tabbing.
The workaround for this is to include the following line (after the first
frame in my movie):
_level0.focusManager.enabled = false;
This works, HOWEVER, as soon as you choose something from the combo box,
the tabbing is broken again ???
Any anyone assist with what is going on here and if there is a fix.
Thanks.___

[Flashcoders] Tabbing
I a user login but the input fields do not all sit in the same movieclip. The structure is as such: userMovie.user_input.inputText.text, passMovie.pass_input.inputText.text How do I set the fields so I can tab through them? And also will doing this cause the onFocus function for each textfield to be called? Thanks! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Tabbing inside AS2 UIComponent
I think you might need to disable tabbing to the external component
(containing).
Actually it makes a lot sense. I'll tell that to the developer that has
now the project in the hands.
Thanks a lot, chr

Re: [Flashcoders] Tabbing inside AS2 UIComponent
If you're having the problem that I think it is it is mentioned in Jesse's
component tutorial http://dev.jessewarden.com/captivate/flashcomponents/-
I think you might need to disable tabbing to the external component
(containing).

In a project I'm supporting a form has been build inside a class that
extends UIComponent (so in AS2, in Flash8, but I had the same problem in
Flash7). I tried in very different ways on implementing the tabbing
inside (using tabIndex, setFocus on killFocus, also with a delay) but
everytime I tab the focus goes out from the textfield but there is no
way to make it come back in another. I presume it is because the
textfields are inside a UIComponent but since I don't usually work with
them I can't be sure. I googled around and didn't find anything a part
http://blog.madebyderek.com/archives/2005/10/20/no_tabbing_for_list_datagrid_and_tree/
but that doesn't help.
Does anyone have an idea on how to handle it?
