I am printing a dynamic text from flash. Every thing works fine, But I get unwanted spaces/ small boxes at the end of every page. Using string functions I tried to remove the last character if it is a space.Even though I am getting this problem.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to print an MC that is on screen with a dynamic text field in the MC - its printing just fine but the placement of one of the elements is off. Basically I have a dynamic text field centered on the stage, however when I print it, the text field moves to the very right on the printed page, while the rest of the contents of the MC stay centered. To clarify on the printed page I basically have this nice page with centered text, but the dynamic textfield is moved all the way to the right of the page.

I'm using loadVars to import text from a text file and then put it into a dynamic text field - rendered in HTML. There is an extra space in the first line of text for some reason. I've checked the dynamic text field and theres no spaces or returns in it - its empty before putting the text into it.

Well I have this dynamic textfield on stage, and it receives a String using FileReference.name. So far, so good.
I wanna know if it's able to make flash 'cut' some extra text from long strings and show ellipsis instead.
I mean, if it receives "ABCDEFGHIJ", if the string exceeds the textfield width, it would show "ABCDE..."
I have a flash object embedded inside a div, and for some reason it has like 10pixels space under it. Here is my code

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

I can't figure out how to get rid of extra white space in the browser at the top of a swf file. It looks fine when I preview the file, but when I do publish preview in flash/ try to incorporate in HTML, there's an extra 1/4" at top of window.
View 3 RepliesI am currently maintaing a multi-linual app. It uses LoadVars.sendAndLoad() to populate dynamic fields with text appropriate to the user's current language. It works fine, except in a few cases. Certain Cyrillic characters, as well as certain Latin characters (such as Å‚) appear with an extra space after them. I have not figured out a way around this. I am using embedded fonts, and am embedding all the appropriate characters.
I've tried using different fonts, and I get the same problem with the same characters across all fonts. If I use device fonts, there is no problem, but this would have to be a last resort, since I'd like to have antialiasing, etc available. I have trace()-d the strings and have confirmed that there's no funny business going on with sendAndLoad(); the text is being properly downloaded.
Note that I am using Flash 8 targeting Flash 6, but targeting Flash 8 doesn't fix the problem. I am wondering if anyone else has run into this issue or a similar one.
I have a project I am trying to put together that includes closed captioning with a scrollbar (standard flash component). In my navigation file I have a text box with a dynamic text box with _level10.ccText as the Var
I have a series of pages that get called into a level below the navigation file. On each of them I have code in an actions frame _level10.ccText = "text text text text";
The text displays fine in the text box but when I scroll down the scrollbar scrolls down too far. The text gets to the end and the scrollbar is only about halfway down the bar. If I keep pushing the down button or drag the slider it will go all the way down but my text doesn't move. Its almost like there are extra lines somewhere that it is trying to scroll to.
For some reason, the data that is getting loaded into the text box is adding:
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="0"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="20" COLOR="#005A80" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">undefined</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
quite a bit of information. I'm not sure why. You can see it here... For some reason, its only doing it to one of the text boxes..

View 0 RepliesI've developed a relatively simple calendar app in Flash that reads an XML file and displays text based on what day it is. A different bit of text displays in the same text box. Since the text is of varying lengths, I wrote a function to resize the text to be large enough or small enough to fit the box. Here's my function:
Code:
// Generic function for increasing text size to fill its container
function AutoTextResize(textElement, maxHeight):void {
textElement.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
[Code]....
It behaves as if the textHeight is LARGER than the height of the box, despite the values it outputs in the traces.
I am using Flash CS3 and AS2. I have a dynamically generated text string that is displaying in a multiline dynamic text box. This dynamic text box is inside a container movie clip which contains everything that I want my user to be able to print (other dynamic text fields, graphics etc.) When I view my swf on screen it displays exactly as I intended - if the text exceeds the text-box length, then it word-wraps. But when I print the container movieclip, the overflow is hidden and does not wrap to the next line.
View 1 RepliesI've got a dynamic vertical scrolling gallery which works fine except for one small thing. There is lots of space underneath the last item in the gallery which shouldn't be there... [URL] I can't for the life of me figure out why the extra space is there at the bottom...

Using the following code, I push data from an xml file into a classic dynamic text box that is configured to render text as html. For some reason there is an obscene amount of white space between paragraphs. I am not sure why it is there since I have already set it to ignore white space. How would I get rid of it?

so i have some scrollbar(track and button) and some content.the formula i am using to calculate to calculate y of content is the following:
//contentStarting.y and scrollbarButtonStarting.y are positions of sprites at the moment they are created
content.y = -((contentStarting.y -scrollbarButtonStarting.y) +scrollbarButton.y) * ((content.height- content.mask.height) / (scrollbarTrack.height - scrollbarButton.height));
the only problem i have is that i need to add extra space after content, so basically i want forumla to act as if content. height = content.height + extraSpace , but unfortunatelly setting the height scalesY, which is what i don't want.
k, so i have a function that checks to see if a user name and email that's being registered already exists in my DB. if the user name previously exists, a 1 is returned. 2 for email and 3 in neither previously exist. if i hard code my user name an existing user name, "joe", who already exists, into my php file and run it in my browser, i get an echoed answer of "1" as i should- nothing less, nothing more. if i don't hard code it and run "joe" over from flash and trace(event.target.data);, i get 1 with a bunch of carriage returns after it in my output window.

I've got a document reader application that I'm trying to add a print option to, but I'm having real difficulties with PrintJobs.On my first attempt, I prepared all my pages in advance, then called PrintJob.start, followed by PrintJob.addPage for each page, then PrintJob. send to finish.On longer documents, however, this was falling foul of the script execution time limits.I could get 90-100 pages spooled before the runtime threw an exception and cut the print run short.On my second attempt, I prepared all my pages in advance again, then called PrintJob.start.I then tried using an event handler to call addPage for each page (first using the frame_enter event, then using a timer). However, calling PrintJob.addPage from an event handler like this caused an exception to be thrown.I've been tearing my hair out all afternoon trying to find a solution to this -- does anybody have any idea how I can get long PrintJobs to work?

View 3 RepliesMy Flex 3 app prints pages just fine from browsers on Windows using FlexPrintJob (not the browser print function). However, on OSX, the left and top margins show up larger and the page gets pushed off the right and bottom. Basically, the scaling is screwed up, and I can't see any way to adjust the margins in code.Has anyone seen this discrepancy in Flex printing between Windows and OSX? Are there any known workarounds? I've searched all over and I can't find any good info on this (other than 12 unresolved printing bugs in the Adobe Jira DB)
PDF Generation is one route and while its a valid solution for some folks, I need to print directly. I'd like to see stuff like using regular Flash PrintJob, monkeypatches to FlexPrintJob, or just ways I can format my DisplayObjects before sending them to FlexPrintJob. None of the scaling options in FlexPrintJob work. My Flex Component is at 1.0 scale. I'm not sure what else I can do except for mess around with regular PrintJob.
