AddKeyListener?

mcavner · **AddKeyListener? -** 10-12-2010, 09:08 PM

I'm using Alice 3 and would like for the arrow keys to move an object. I selected the object and the only method that looks hopeful is AddKeylistener. It sets up a "Declare procedure KEYPRESSED with parameter" and I don't have a clue how to use it. Has anyone used this or can someone provide insight as to how to accomplish?

Played around with it for a bit and found it. It's definitely not an obvious solution, nor is it really practical, in my opinion, but it is functional. However, you'll need a separate keyListener for each procedure you want done simultaneously, as each keyListener can only handle one key at a time.

Unzip the file below to find my a3p file, then use the arrow keys to move the henchman.

Thanks a lot!
But "addMouseButtonListener", which mousebutton left button or right button?

With the addMouseKeyListner, it would serve the same function as the addKeyListner, meaning if you wanted to assign a method to the left mouse you would have to delcare that in the addMouseListner. Let me know if that helps.
