Description
Using the Touchlib based TUIO AS3 TouchEvent, this is a utility component. All that is needed for implementation is to us the Loader/URLRequest with an Event.COMPLETE event listener to load the external SWF. Then identify the TextField you want the user to type into.
Media
Requirements
Widget Developed in Actionscript 3 and Flash 10.

Instructions
This is the code used for the included demo SWF, Mini-Keyboard-Demo.swf. This code uses a TextField already added to the stage via the Flash CS4 GUI.
- package app{
- import flash.events.TouchEvent;
- import flash.events.TUIO;
- import flash.display.*;
- import flash.net.URLRequest;
- import flash.events.Event;
- import flash.text.TextField;
- public class KeyboardDemo extends MovieClip {
- public var newKeyboard:MovieClip=new MovieClip ;
- public var anyTextField:TextField=new TextField ;// connects TextField on Stage to this AS Script
- public function KeyboardDemo() {
- TUIO.init(this,'localhost',3000,'',true);
- var request:URLRequest=new URLRequest("Mini-Keyboard.swf");// loads Keyboard into Flash
- var loader:Loader=new Loader ;
- loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,completeHandler);
- loader.load(request);
- }
- private function completeHandler(loadEvent:Event):void {
- trace("completeHandler: "+loadEvent);
- addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
- var newObj:Object=loadEvent.currentTarget.content;
- trace(newObj);
- newObj.x=300;
- newObj.y=100;
