Hello,

I want to delivery mouse events to flash.

I am using the following create function because I have to get bitmap for frame in direct3d.

Code: Select all

   g_hwndFlashPlayerControl =  
      CreateWindow((LPCTSTR)FPC_GetClassAtom(g_hFPC), 
                         NULL, 
                         WS_CHILD | FPCS_TRANSPARENT, // WS_VISIBLE
                         0, 
                         0, 
                         DEF_WIDTH, 
                         DEF_HEIGHT, 
                         hWnd, 
                         NULL, 
                         NULL, 
                         NULL);

And I use the following code to delivery mouse events.

Code: Select all

      case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
      case WM_LBUTTONUP:
      case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK:
      case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
      case WM_RBUTTONUP:
      case WM_RBUTTONDBLCLK:
      case WM_MOUSEMOVE:
         {
    //3d->2d coordination translation is needed.
            ::SendMessage(g_hwndFlashPlayerControl, msg, wParam, lParam);
         }
         break;

I checked "WM_MOUSEMOVE" event is working in flash !!
But though "WM_LBUTTONDOWN" event is sent to flash window,
It is not working well. I try about 10 mouse click, then only 1 click is working.

I think my question is the same to http://www.f-in-box.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= (Help with Mouse/Keyboard to Flash Window when in Direct3d) in forum.

Now, do you have the way?

Thank you so much.

Thank you for your question.

Unfortunaly, we still haven't a stable solution to pass mouse events to f-in-box window.

We have found experimentally solution that seems to be stable

Code: Select all

      case WM_LBUTTONDOWN: 
         { 
            // there is some aX aY calculations
            // ...

            // refocus invisible window
            ::SendMessage(aFlashHWND, WM_MOUSEMOVE, 0, MAKELONG(aX-1,aY-1));
            ::SendMessage(aFlashHWND, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, MK_LBUTTON, MAKELONG(aX,aY));
         } 
         break;

Even in this case buttons with click animation behaves weird. Any ideas why Flash is dropping internal hover flag?
Tbh, without this functionality f_in_box.dll value is very low for any game developer. But if it will work, it opens very interesting possibilities for in-game UI. Look at Crysis interface - it's brilliant. But they used Scaleform's solution and it's sucks badly from developer stand point.
