Capture click event of mouse outside of a canvas/component

Hello guys

I have a basic component of canvas and I want to capture a click of mouse outside this component event.

How is that possible?

Thank you very much

Your best bet is to put an event listener for a mouse click on the stage of the application.  Let me know if you need more information.

  • Click event of mouse by the numbers

    Howdy,

    I'm looking to make a seemingly simple formula in number but can't seem to find a way to do it.  I want a series of cells that are pre-loaded with the NOW function to fill the cell with the current date and time.  I want the shutter to a click of the mouse that will populate this cell.  Without the mouse, click in the cell would remain blank.  Seems simple enough but I just can't find a way to do it without including the type java or python, which I don't want to get into this coding.  So just ask if anyone might know an easy way to accomplish this, or at least a direction to look in...

    Thank you!

  • Click event of mouse and UIComponent

    I need trigger an event click on the rectangle.

    But with my code below triggers the user click even when events click on outside the rectangle, can someone please contact this behavior and the solution so this event only fires when the rectangle is clicked.

    (Tried to set mouseChildren to false, but invain. Still triggers outside the rectangle)

    public void drawNewRectabgle(): void {}
    var uiComponent: UIComponent = new UIComponent();

    uiComponent.mouseChildren = false;
    uiComponent.graphics.lineStyle(1,0xFF0000);
    uiComponent.graphics.drawRect (0,0,70,20);
    uiComponent.width = 70;
    uiComponent.height = 20;
    var textField: TextField = new TextField();
    textField.x = 10;
    textField.y = 5;
    textField.text = addPerson.txtInput.text;
    uiComponent.addChild (textField);
    uiComponent.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, clickFunction);
    addChild (uiComponent);
    }

    Thank you.

    At the first glance... Your rectangle has no fill, so the only part that would be clickable would race. Try adding a fill whose property 'alpha' to 0. In addition, you can use the event since the clickHandler to determine where the event originated from (event.target).

    I added this Manager in verticalFieldManager.

    My problem is the two button touchevent last isn't getting captured.

    As Manager of footer I have headerManager (HorizontalFieldManager). That I placedonea the button on the left and right. In this event button to the left of the button you get captured but the right button touchevent is not getting do not capture.

    In short... the fields that I place in the right corner (1/4 of the screen) dod not capture the key event. It too is happeing in the camera.

    can someone please tell me what to do about it. I already posted my excerpt.

    Thank you.


  • How to force a mouse click event?

    How can I force a click event of mouse anywhere on the page?

    The application is not updated to point up what a user clicks somewhere in the Flex/Flash application. But you can apparently write a javascript function to set the focus on the player on the timing of the charges (and then use callLater()).

  • Contact information for return pixel Imaq image with the mouse click event

    Hello

    I'm trying to get the coordinates in pixels of an image Imaq based on a mouse click event, similar to this post and this post. The problem is that with the first post, I get the coordinates in the image control and hesitate to trust them, they seem to have the Center origin, may return negative coordinates and do not represent the actual size of the detector that I use (512 x 512). It also returns the coordinates outside the actual data when it is clicked on the image control framework. The second method returns simply null coordinates. What I want are the coordinates of the pixel displayed when hovering the mouse imaq image control framework.

    What baffles me, is that I tried the second method with a png stock file and it works fine, it is only when I create an image from the data of my camera than the coordinates are returned null. Note data views of camera under control of image very well.

    Any ideas would be useful. Enclosed is a picture of the offending code and the Panel before displaying the camera data is coming (I know it needs some cleaning).

    Thank you

  • Reading a click event, even though his State is not captured; so not "clicked"?

    Hello

    Im working on the menu where I need to capture a "sustained" mouse click to save a second event handler.

    Only problem, is that the click is "pending", which means that the mouse button is beeing hurry and "sustained" - if it is not being caught by auditor "MouseEvent.CLICK" complete Flash 'CLICK '.

    Is there no workaround solution to capture this event before his seat as a filled click? Using the 'useCapture' event handler flag, perhaps?

    I don't know that this post makes sense for you, since you know what you're doing. But I'm not really following it. You have a lot of versions to 'click' and ' organize' in there. Say you that you need to make the difference between a click (press and release) and a hold (hold)?

    In this case use MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP and MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN use MouseEvent.CLICK and perhaps a timer or something to record it was held long enough?

    Am I close? Get the general idea?

  • Errors in 'Speed' while accessing the mouse click events?

    Hello

    I built a software where it has a CVI callback function registered on the Panel. The function tests whether two cases, the first EVENT_LEFT_CLICK and then EVENT_LEFT_CLICK_UP. The user is supposed to keep the click button for some time (~ 1 second), and there is no problem. However, I have found that if by mistake (that users commit often) multiple rapid clicks are made, sometimes the click down the piece of event (EVENT_LEFT_CLICK) of the code is not read. I reduced the likelihood of this problem of the speed setting of double click (on Windows) to the maximum.

    I think that if I could eliminate the double click event, this problem would be resolved almost completely and only limited by the speed at which the processor can update mouse events.

    Hope you understand my problem.

    Thank you!!

    AUTOSOLVED.

    Thanks to a guy who posted his own solution on a Windows forum, to 'disable' the double click. Just change the HKEY_CURRENT registry value > ControlPanel > mouse > DoubleClickSpeed to 1. What makes the double click speed so fast that you can access virtually every user actually simple clicks.

    After doing this, in order to apply the registry editing, I ended explorer.exe running and he raised through windows task screen. However, change, this applies to what I opened the mouse Panel (without change or apply anything from there).

  • Kill the MouseEven.CLICK event when the mouse is held down?

    I studied games on Facebook and trying to emulate mouse events management. For example, in ChefVille, you can click on the objects and drag them around. But if you hold the mouse down you pan all the game environment and when you release the mouse button a click is NOT on the object under the mouse. In my tinkering the click event will be triggered by the release of the mouse button, no matter how many time keep the button pressed. How can I keep the trigger CLICK event if the mouse is held down for a certain period of time?

    I don't know that you can cancel a CLICK event in the middle of what is happening (click = MOUSE_DOWN followed MOUSE_UP), but you can start a timer on the MOUSE_DOWN event and its event handler to set a Boolean variable that can make your event HANDLER function used to decide or not to treat a CLICK event.

  • How can I control mouse click event (properly) in a multidimensional array?

    Hi all!

    I have a question about the use of the events of mouse clicks in a multidimensional array (or a '2D' table that we refer to them in Java and C++).

    Background

    I have an array of objects of each with a corresponding mouse click event. Each object is stored in a place between [0] [0] and [5] [8] (so a 9 x 6 grid) and has the specific column and thus associated line number (i.e. tile [2] [4] has a 2 line number and a column 4 number, even if it's on the third row, fifth column). With each click of mouse, the tile that is selected is stored in a temporary table. Table is disabled if a tile is clicked that is not a value line or column equal to, less than or more 1 with the currently targeted tile (i.e. clicking tile [1] [1] clears the table is there are no stored tiles bearing the number of row/column)

    [0] [0] [0] [1] [0] [2],

    [1] [0], [1] [1], [1] [2],

    [2] [0] [2] [1], [2] [2]

    (or any column/line contiguous with another tile stored in the array, which means that the newly selected tile must only be sharing a border with one of the tiles of the temp table but not necessarily with the last tile stored).

    Question

    What is somehow clean and tidy this programming in AS3? Here are some parts of my code (although the mouse click event is not finished/working correctly):

    service public tileClick(e:MouseEvent):void
    {
    var tile: Object = e.currentTarget;

    tileSelect.push (uint (tile.currentFrameLabel));
    selectArr.push (tile);

    If (tile.select.visible is false)
    {
    Tile.Select.Visible = true;
    }
    on the other
    {
    Tile.Select.Visible = false;
    }
    for (var i: uint = 0; i < selectArr.length; i ++)
    {
    If ((tile.rowN == selectArr [i].rowN-1) |)
    (tile.rowN == selectArr [i] .rowN).
    (tile.rowN is .rowN selectArr [i] + 1))
    {
    If ((tile.colN == selectArr [i].colN-1) |)
    (tile.colN == selectArr [i] .colN).
    (tile.colN is .colN selectArr [i] + 1))
    {
    trace ("jackpot!" + i);
    }
    }
    on the other
    {
    for (var ii:uint = 0; ii < 1; ii ++)
    {
    for (var iii:uint = 0; iii < selectArr.length; iii ++)
    {
    selectArr [iii].select.visible = false;
    }
    selectArr = [];
    trace ("Err!");
    }
    }
    }
    }

    so, no matter what tiles are clicked, you only added to selectArr?  That is to say, if someone clicks on tiles randomly contiguous or not, what they added to selectArr?  If so, let the way you have it but change contigF().

    If you want to add a tile of selectArr if selectArr is empty, and when the user click on a tile adjacent selectArr, move the push() method to run If contigF() returns true and change contigF() to:

    function contigF(tile:DisplayObject):Boolean {}

    {if(selectArr.Length==0)}

    Returns true;

    }

    for (var i: int = 0; i<>

    if(Tile!=selectArr[i]&&math.) ABS (selectArr [i] .rowN - Tile.rowN)<2&&Math.abs(selectArr[i].colN><>

    Returns true;

    }

    }

    Returns false;

    }

  • Intercept each mouse click event in application

    Hello

    I would like the world catch each mouse click event in my Flex application. Also, I would like to get the ID of the element (checkbox, button, etc.)? Items in my application are static, but there are many. Then writing functions for all elements is not an option. Is it possible to catch each click event?

    Thnx in advance

    It is very easy.

  • Click event incorrectly attached after DOM manipulation

    I have a page with elements of entry and a span element style as a button. Register event handlers changes on input elements, to make the validation when the input values are changed. If the entries are not valid, I add the content of a div on the page to indicate the problem. I also save a click event handler on the span of style as a button.

    When I change an entry and then immediately click the duration (i.e. without leaving the input element before clicking on the duration of the update), I see:

    (1) mousedown on the duration
    2) switch to entry
    (3) mouseup on the entry

    This happens only when I change the DOM in the event handler changes on the entry. If I do not change the DOM then I see:

    (1) mousedown on the duration
    2) switch to entry
    (3) mouseup on the duration
    4) click on the duration

    In the first case, I see the mouseup attached to the input rather than the span element element, even if it has the same coordinates as the mousedown attached to the span element. Given the coordinates are within the span element and outside limits of the input element, I don't understand why mouseup is associated with the element of entry rather than the span element.

    There is an example of this at http://jsfiddle.net/4zx8rm7c/.

    I see this behavior in Chrome and Firefox 34.0.5 39.0.2171.95 m.

    If the association of the mouseup event with the input element, despite the apparently independent of the mouse event, behavior plan, coordinates I need to understand why that is. I looked at characteristics of COM event level-2 (briefly) and I don't see an obvious explanation.

  • Button Click event doesn't work

    I installed the latest update of flash media and labour component (the one in the toolbar) collapsed button flash. More precisely it gets not the click event. I use:
    on click me
    Alert ("x")
    end

    and nothing happens. I reinstalled and everything went well until what I replaced with new flash support.

    Anyone have this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Where and how you apply this code to this component? How are you
    definition of the function "click"?

    If you are using a component in Flash, you must select the sprite, then
    Open the tab "Flash component" from the window of the property inspector. Define the
    'eventPassMode' to #passAlways. This will allow the mouse event pass
    out of the component and back to the Director. Otherwise, the mouse event
    will be captured by the component and runs any code you have
    within the component itself.
