AS3 :: Flex - Duplicating A Text Field Without Removing It From Stage?
Dec 16, 2010
I am trying to duplicate a text field. First I get the text with a mc.getChildAt(0) and then copy all the contents into a new textfield. The problem I am having is that getChildAt removes the textfield from the movieclip it is in. How to I get the properties of the textfield without moving it? Or maybe it is something else and what I am doing is fine
var dupeTField:MovieClip = duplicateTextField($value.sourceImg.getChildAt(0));
private function duplicateTextField($textField):MovieClip
{

I have a textfield and a button component.The problem is when the textfield is focused and i click anywhere on the stage it remains focused and no focusout event occurs. I know that it's because component classes implement IFocusManager(Component) interface and the TextField class does not .I do not want to create a new instance of FocusManager class or implement the IFocusManager interface in a custom class. Is there any way to disable the focusmanager ? The deactivate method does not seem to work in as3!
Code:
import fl.managers.FocusManager
var fm:FocusManager=new FocusManager(this)
fm.deactivate()

I have an input text field that is named in the properties box as 'numberOfKids'. When the program is executed, and a delete or backspace is pressed the input textfield goes blank and any calculations that use 'numberOfKids' shows NaN.I have trapped the NaN and undefined so that a numeric 0 shows up instead of a blank.
First problem: The cursor is to the left of the zero, so the first number inputted by the user is 10x larger than what they want. 0 becomes 10. How do I get the cursor to move to the right of the 0?
Second Problem: When I manually move the cursor to the right of the 0 and input a number, say 4, it shows up as 04. How do I delete the leading numeric zero in the input textfield?
Here's the code I am using:
calculateChildWeight = function () { if (isNaN(numberOfKids)) { numberOfKids = 0; } if ((numberOfKids) == undefined) { numberOfKids = 0; } if (numberOfKids>=0 && numberOfKids<=137) { numberOfKids = numberOfKids; } else { numberOfKids = 0; } if (isNaN(adjustedChildWeight)) { adjustedChildWeight = 0; } if ((adjustedChildWeight)=undefined) { adjustedChildWeight = 0; } adjustedChildWeight = Number(numberOfKids*(-100)); //numberOfKids.setSelection(numberOfKids.length, numberOfKids.length); //if (numberOfKids.length=2 && numberOfKids<10) { // remove the first character or leading zero// numberOfKids = numberOfKids;// }};

I just noticed that when you place a text field on the stage using code:
Code:
var texter:TextField = new TextField();
texter.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat("Impact", 68, 0xffffff);
texter.text = "890";
[code]....
It does not look the same as a text field that I placed on the stage in the Flash editer. The text created by code has very harsh edges, but the other text has smooth edges. How can I get my code TextField to look like the editor Text Field?

Basically, I'm designing a site for 800x600 and almost all of my stages are 800x600, but because of an abundance of text, I streched one stage to 800x1365.
I realize I could just put the text in a text field that would fit in the original 600 but I'd rather not to avoid the weird look when viewed on a computer with a bigger screen resolution.
How can I add a regular browser scroll bar to my SWF that will remain on the edge of the screen regardless of resolution and scroll down the entire stage?

I have been looking around for a long time to find a way to create a dynamic text field added to stage using as3 that is arched.I have seen this done in other sites but have had a hard time figuring out. Does anyone know of a component other than Text2Curve that is available? Has anyone already written something that arches a textfield that they would share?Arched text in flash seems to be impossible.

I'm trying to access a text input that I've already placed on the stage (inside a movie clip) but with no luck.I've defined an instance name for this dynamic text field which is currentUserCount.I've got something like this set up in the document class actionscript file:
package {
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;[code].......
What am I missing? When I run this I get:
1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.
1120: Access of undefined property movieClipName.
1119: Access of possibly undefined property movieClipName through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.
1120: Access of undefined property currentUserCount.

Currently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:
Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}
Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.

I created a somewhat custom Spark button by doing the File > New > MXML skin and basing it on spark.components.button. The problem is that I need to add an extra text field to the button component and dynamically change that text...but of course, the property isn't recognized on a Spark Button.
Is there a simple way to add this field to my custom button skin & its property so it can be addressed? If not, is there a simple way to take what I've done and just extend the Spark Button? I can't seem to find any examples that show how to do it without writing it all up in ActionScript.

Is it possible to login through flash using one Dynamic Text Field and one Input Text Field and no buttons? If so how? I have seen many tutorials dealing with logging in to PHP using flash but it requires you to make your own php scripts which i am not familiar with. Can some one tell me how to do this with PHPBBs existing php scripts... I want to be able to login thorugh a Input Text Field box and have it verify it in PHP and also be able to register and view other PHP info such as users online and FAQ..
