Changes are displayed as follows:
Adobe Flash-based Content
Adobe Flash Professional version MX and higher
This technique relates to:
The objective of this technique is to demonstrate how to invoke a scripting function in a way that is keyboard accessible by attaching it to keyboard-accessible, standard Flash components provided by the Adobe Flash Profressional authoring tool. In order to ensure that scripted actions can be invoked from the keyboard, they are associated with standard Flash components such as the Button component. The click event of these components is device independent. While the "CLICK" event is a mouse event, it is actually mapped to the default action of a button. The default action occurs when the user clicks the element with a mouse, but it also occurs when the user focuses the element and hits the space key, and when the element is triggered via the accessibility API.
This example shows a button that uses the MouseEvent.CLICK event to change its label. This event will fire both on mouse click and when the space key is pressed
This approach is demonstrated in the working version of click event on a button
Example Code:
import fl.controls.Button;
import fl.accessibility.ButtonAccImpl;
ButtonAccImpl.enableAccessibility();
var testBtn = new Button();
testBtn.label = "click me";
testBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler, false);
addChild(testBtn);
testBtn.x = testBtn.y = 10;
function clickHandler(e) {
e.target.label = "Thanks";
}
Editorial Note: The wiki source for FLASH16 indicated there was an action to add a second example.
When a Flash Movie contains interactive controls, confirm that:
Standard Flash components are used for the controls
The controls use the "click" event
#1 and #2 are true
