How do I make "Contact" appear as Bold text?
I have a dynamic text box for 3 lines of text. I styled part of the text to be bold and part of it to be regular. When i click on the button to display the text it looks right the first time but if i click on it a second time then all of the text shows up bold instead of just the few lines i assigned the bold tag to.
View 18 RepliesI am trying to load text and image through a external .txt-file using the asfunction. So far I have managed to load the text but not the image. (The image is baseline so it should work).
View 1 RepliesI am a little confused with the ASFUNCTION. I understand how to use it to call a function from within the swf, but how can I embed a link in the external text file? Is this even with ASFUNCTION? When I use an <A HREF etc it doesn't work. I have searched all over the forums and can't find the answer to this really simple question. Also, one other thing. Is there a good character map somewhere for UTF-8 encodings? For example, I can't seem to get Trademark and bullet points to work.

Trying to format input text fields using format buttons in Actionscript has been challenging. I've been able to put some pieces together, however I am still missing some things. Here's my code:
Code:
function selectText() {
startSelect = Selection.getBeginIndex();[code].........
I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular. I am able to change it to bold or unbold by selecting the text and clicking the button but I also need to do it without selecting.
I have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.
View 2 RepliesI have a linked movieclip that contains two textfields.One of the textfields needs to have regular and bold text, so I thought I would use htmlText however it's only showing the regular font that I embedded?I made the textfield in Flash and called it "details".I also tried to make another textField in the symbol called, "invisi" and I set it not visible:invisi.visible = false;I embedded the BOLD version of the font in the invisi textfield, hoping this would make the "details" text field show the bold font...but no luck.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to update an old CS3 project, which had a dynamic text field with HTML formatted text using the <b> tag to create bold text in places. In the CS4 version the bold text simply doesn't show up. It does in the CS3 version. I have embedded the font in both regular and bold varieties, both by using the offstage empty text field method, and the font in library method. I simply can't get it to work. I've seen other people having this problem with CS4 on other forums, but no solutions or workarounds as yet.
View 3 RepliesI've got a dynamic text field that I want to sometimes be bold, sometimes not. It's called "myTextField".I'm sending it a variable called "myText" and trying to bold it as follows:myTextField.text = "<B>" + myText + "</B>"
- The text field has the font embedded.
- I have some regular AND bold text in the text field in authoring
- The text field is set to receive HTML text in properties.
But it keeps putting "<B>" right in the text field before my variable and "</B>" after. What am I missing / not getting here?I know I've done this before, but can't find where.
i'm using a font called "AGBookBQ-Regular" in a dynamic text box, which loads a text file. i understand that to include the bold and italic options, i have placed another text box just out of view off the stage with these two options selected.italic works fine but the bold makes very little difference... it only stretches the font slightly.i've searched for the answer to make a much bolder font and it seems you can use a specific bold font as the bold font.i've tried this, but nothing happens. i think i'm interpreting it correctly, but if someone could please confirm this works and perhaps explain it a little clearer (using my specific font names... "AGBookBQ-Regular" and "AGBookBQ-Medium" as the bold font).

I have a text field in Flash (CS4, using AS3), the font is set to Helvetica Neue, and it looks fine as a static text field, but looks bold when it is set to dynamic. What causes this? Is there anyway around this problem (other than setting the field to static)? Is there a way to control tracking with TextFormat in AS3? You can control leading with the object, but I can't seem to find a way to put more space between letters.

I basically can't figure out how to make dynamic text Bold.I have a String that holds text which is passed to it from an XML file's attributes.
