I have a MenuItemImage here:
auto myImage = MenuItemImage::create("image.png","image_selected.png",
CC_CALLBACK_1(HelloWorld::onImageClicked,this));
It allow me to input a image.png, which will be changed to image_selected.png on selected when I navigate between items in my menu with keyboard. However, I want to perform some actions when select it with myImage->selected(); (NOT activate it by clicking/touching or calling for myImage->activate(); function), not just a boring image_selected.png.
Now, I'm thinking about set up all of those action in:
keyBoardListener->onKeyPressed = [&](cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keycode, Event* event)
{ // Setting up actions on KEY_RIGHT_ARROW or KEY_LEFT_ARROW pressed};
However this way makes things complicated. Therefore, I want to ask if there's any way that I could set up all of my actions as myImage being creating so I could call all of those action with a simple myImage->selected() or stop them with myImage->unselected() later?
Your attention and help is very much appreciated :D
Simply do this:
auto myImage = MenuItemImage::create("image.png", "image_selected.png", [&](Ref* ref){
//your code here
//by ref you can access "myImage" object
});
edit:
I'm not sure what are you trying to achieve. Do you want to have a few buttons in menu, which always one of the is selected and change them using arrows? (so menu navigation is like on console games).
edit2:
After watch a sample yt video I don't think you can achieve this relying only on MenuItemImage. Instead I'd create a ui::Button (if you need clicking/touching as well) or Sprite. Then I'd handle button states by myself. As for glowing frame you probably need some fancy shader or create it in photoshop and add to it an action with constantly fading out and in.

I want to try a simple task where if i move a object inside the world and then press a button it should go back to its original position , but its not working , below is the code i am using - the file is here - http://www.fastswf.com/yAnIvBs (when i remove the event listener)
with event listener - http://www.fastswf.com/rpYsIt8
////////========================
stop();
var startXPos:Number = level1WorldObj.box1.x;
var startYPos:Number = level1WorldObj.box1.y;
function areaS(e:Event) {
level1WorldObj.box1.y= startYPos;
level1WorldObj.box1.x= startXPos;
level1WorldObj.box1.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, areaS);
}
but1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,nClick3);
function nClick3(event:MouseEvent):void{
level1WorldObj.box1.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, areaS);
level1WorldObj.box1.y= startYPos;
level1WorldObj.box1.x= startXPos;
}
/////////////////======================
Now i want to be able to do it many time so i kept the variables that detect the initial x, y as global ...
Here you can see how it behaves in debugdraw mode , strangely only the clip moves not the actual body - http://www.fastswf.com/-Ijkta4
Can some one please guide me here ...
Thanks in advance ...

The graphics that you see (box1) aren't related to the physical object behind the scenes - you're currently only moving the graphics not the object itself.
You need to use either SetPosition() or SetTransform() on the b2Body of the object
Edit 07/7
As you're using the Box2D World Construction Kit, I took a look at the source code (available here: https://github.com/jesses/wck). The main class seems to be BodyShape (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jesses/wck/master/wck/BodyShape.as).
Looking through it, you should be able to access the b2Body directly. If it's null (which is probably the source of the TypeError that you're getting, then you haven't called createBody(), which is what actually takes all of your properties as creates the physical object behind the scenes.
Once you have a b2Body, if you want to position it based on the graphics, there's a function syncTransform() to do just that.
You should turn on debugDraw on your World class to make it easier to see what's going on in the background. NOTE: this needs to be done before calling create()
I was able to find solution to this problem , i found the starting point by using this -
trace(level1WorldObj.box1.b2body.GetPosition().x);
trace(level1WorldObj.box1.b2body.GetPosition().y);
then once i had the position manually i took down the coordinates and used the below code ....
level1WorldObj.box1.b2body.SetTransform(new V2(-2, 2),0 );
Thanks #divillysausages for all the help ...

Sorry for my complicated questioning ;)
I've created several components on my stage (Slider, TextLabel, CheckBox, ...) with the addChild(...) method. Now, if the user needs one Slider component more (for another input), I want to give him a button "addButton" (already on stage) with an CLICK addEventListener. The function which is fired in the addEventListener should create a new Slider component on stage, e.g.
addButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,addSlider("slid1",20,160,250,0,250,30));
The problem is to pass the parameters to the function, i need to set the new Slider to several basic values, like position, width, minimum, maximum and so on....
Can this be achieved in this way?
thx,
edwin
There are several ways you can do this. The simplest way is to call your function inside a mouse event handler:
addButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addSliderHandler);
function addSliderHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {
{
addSlider("slid1",20,160,250,0,250,30);
}
EDIT (to answer your comment question):
To position your new component according to existing components, you can keep a variable reference to the position in the script and pass this as a parameter. For instance, suppose you want the first generated slider to be at y:160, and every slider to be 40px more than this, change the script to this:
var sliderY:int = 160;
addButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addSliderHandler);
function addSliderHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {
{
addSlider("slid1",20,sliderY,250,0,250,30);//Pass sliderY instead of literal number
sliderY += 40;//Add 40 to sliderY
}
Now, every time you use this function to create a button it will be positioned at y = sliderY, then it will add 40 to sliderY....so the first one generated will be at 160, the next at 200, the next at 240 etc.
Hope this helps!
hello im making game and im trying to add skins for layers in this game so i made a vovieclip
and inside it there are skins http://prntscr.com/2as4mp and inside that when it be clicked there are http://prntscr.com/2as4pm i want it that when i ress this button the skin will change in the menu i tried this
select_2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, open1243)
function open1243(event:MouseEvent){
bk = 1
gotoAndStop(2)
}
stop ();
well that dint work um where there is goandsto 2 that goes to menu thats it nothing works pls help
In your event listener, you're not specifying that you want select_2 to gotoAndStop, rather, it will apply that method call to whatever this is in the scope of that method. I'm guessing, at that point, it's the stage.
select_2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, open1243);
function open1243(event:MouseEvent){
bk = 1
select_2.gotoAndStop(2);
}
You should probably make sure your event listener could be used for any object similar to select_2, in which case, I would suggest you change that line of code to:
MovieClip(event.target).gotoAndStop(2)
I hope to pop down a score panel when players win and pass the gate.
Normally it will pop down score board.
I think the best way is to use layer and pull down it.
But I only get the transition of scene, just wonder is there any way for layer transition?
Did not see an equivalent of CCTransitionScene :CCScene for CCLayer but layers can runActions using which we can bring out most of the animations/transitions.
Here is what I do in such situations but I guess you are thinking of the same thing. Nevertheless,
1.Create a layer and add it as a child at a position outside of your screen frame.
2.Then use CCMoveTo to move it to the desired location when you want to pull it down.
I have done something similar in the past.
Display your layer offscreen
i.e setposition(0, CCDirector::sharedDirector()->getWinSize().height*1.5f);
create an action to move it onscreen (I like to use CCEaseSineOut)
you can also use a callfunc to call a function when it has finished its animation
scoreLayer->runAction( CCSequence::create( CCEaseSineOut::create(CCMoveTo::create(1.0f, ccp(0, 0-_screenHeight*1.5f))), CCCallFunc::create(this, callfunc_selector(MainLayer::scorefinishedMove)), NULL));
Note: that function might need some fixes to ending brackets etc. And you may want to seperate out some of those actions rather than putting the initialization right in the runAction function
For layer transition you can do this:
CCScene* newScene = CCTransitionCrossFade::create(.5f,Layer2::scene());
CCDirector::sharedDirector()->pushScene(newScene);
In Layer2.cpp
CCScene* Layer2::scene()
{
CCScene* scene = CCScene::create();
CCLayer* layer = new Layer2();
scene->addChild(layer,1);
return scene;
}
Please note the remark mentioned WORKAROUND at the end of this question.
Based on a Dictionary based specification, one of my classes creates a Form programmatically.
Adding TextInput or DatePicker to FormItemss works as expected.
Unfortunately, the following code just creates a colored rectangle, not the actual picker:
ti = new ColorPicker();
ColorPicker( ti ).selectedColor = TAColor( _spec[ key ].value ).color;
and later on
formItem.addElement( ti );
The Form is embedded in a TitleWindow component presented using
PopUpManager.addPopUp(...);
When added to TitleWindow, it shows up correctly, within Form->FormItem not:
I can't image, why the picker doesn't appear. Do you?
WORKAROUND:
If I wrap the ColorPicker inside a Group things work:
ti = new Group();
Group( ti ).addElement( new ColorPicker() );
In this case, the ColorPicker appears as editable.
Still, I'd be too happy to learn what the problem with my initial solution. Bug?
A DateField (which extends ComboBase like ColorPicker) behaves properly in a spark Form. But in the ColorPicker, the mouse down handler of the button never gets called. I think that maybe the skin part that handles the mouse clicks (it must be a button) is not properly dimensionned, and the result is it is not shown. I've come to this conclusion because within an mx Form, the ColorPicker doesn't display as it does when it is added to the regular displaylist...
Hope this helps...
In the code you've provided, you never add the colorPicker as a child to any parent container; as such it will never show up anywhere.
You probably need to do something like:
formItem.addChild(ti );
[or for a Spark formItem]:
formItem.addElement(ti );
I'm confused as to why you're seeing a rectangle.
