ActionScript 2.0 :: Pass Text From Form Text Field To A Flash Dynamic Text Field?

Feb 3, 2007

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.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Calculator - Clear The Text Field Then Store The New Input In The Same Text Field As A Different Variable

Mar 30, 2006

I'm making a calculator using Flash MX that works the same way as the basic calculator found on windows (not the scientific one). But having the user input a number, store it as a variable, store which function the user wants to perform and clear the text field then store the new input in the same text field as a different variable and multiply or add or divide or subtract the 2 numbers and getting the equals sign to display the answer when clicked is harder than I thought it would be.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Contents Of A Text Field As The Dial Points In The Direction Of The Text Field?

Nov 15, 2004

I am working on a file that has a rotating dial, and I'd like the dial to reveal contents of a text field (a link) as the dial points in the direction of the text field. I have 4 text fields located at 90, 180, 270 and 360 degrees (top, bottom, left and right). I have it controlled via AS, so I've got all the Math but I was hoping someone might know how to reveal the links when the arrow (in the dial) is pointing in these directions.I set up a text field for testing, which shows the degrees, but I'm getting 'NaN' in the field (problems with Theta and converting degrees to Radians, I think). I thought this might help me figure out how to reveal those links, if I can get the NaN to work.Currently, the file is rotating with an onPress, but I'm going to convert it to a mouse follow, instead, so the user only has to float around to see the links.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Field From An Input Text Field

Dec 16, 2010

What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.

Professional :: Pass The Contents Of The Text Field To Another Text Field?

Nov 8, 2010

I've created a dynamic text field - mediaImportName001 (created , and populated it with the name of a file that I choose to import using a browse button (as3 and AIR).This works fine - I can import the file, and the name appears in the field.
 
I'd now like to pass the contents of the text field to another text field.  But I can't get the contents. If I try to trace the contents of the textField trace("mediaImportName"+thisNum).text     - Flash returns "undefined" (even though I'm asking it to trace after the field has been populated).
 
I use the following code to check that the field really is there and named correctly (the code returns the children):
 
for (var i:uint = 0; i < this.numChildren; i++){    trace (this.getChildAt(i).name + ' type:' + typeof (this.getChildAt(i))+ ' ' + this.getChildAt(i));}
 
it returns:
 
instance370     type:object    [object Shape]mediaImportName001     type:object    [object TextField]mediaFiletype001     type:object    [object TextField]
 
How do I get Flash to give me the text in mediaImportName001?  
 
It's bizarre - this.getChildAt(i).name
 
from above gives me...
 
mediaImportName001     ,
 
yet
trace (["mediaImportName"+thisNum].name); 
 
returns undefined (thisNum represents an increment I use to name multiple clips and text fields, and in this case trace(thisNum); returns 001)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Showing Text Field As HTML Field With XML/CDATA.?

Aug 26, 2007

Trying to get a text field in my Flash MX movie to pull from and XML file with CDATA tags to show as HTML. I've checked the box to render as HTML for the text data field... but I'm having problems with the Actionscripting.

The field from this line is what I need to recognize as HTML reading CDATA tags:

this.ref["textField"+i].text = subnodes[3].firstChild.toString()

I know I need to do more than just change it to ".html" instead of ".text" and have tried a couple things, but nothing seems to work.

Code:
//Create the XML Object
myXML = new XML ();
myXML.load(newXml);

AS3 :: Setting A Dynamic Position For A Text Field Relative To Another Dynamic Text Field

Dec 8, 2010

I'm creating an XML-driven pie chart in AS3 with 2 text boxes in each pie slice. Both text fields are dynamic in the sense that they are populated by the XML doc and then told where to place themselves in the AS3. I've got them both using the same x and y position to place themselves at the moment (which of course puts them right one top of each other), but I'd like to make one of the fields (which acts like a label or a title to the larger number and % text field) place itself in a particular spot around the other text field. The result I'm looking for is to have the smaller "title" text field appear approximately 5 pixels above and left-justified to the larger "percentage" field.

Anyway, here are two sections of code that I've currently got. The first chunk, for the Tags portion, sets the position for the "percentage" text field using a good old x and y method. The second chunk, for Titles, is setting the position for the smaller "title" text.

//evaluate tags
private function evaluateTags():void{
for (s=0; s

ActionScript 3.0 :: TextField Text Color Changing (not Animated)

Apr 24, 2009

Say I have a class that extends TextField and I want to have it set a default text color to black (0x000000) when initiated. Easy enough. But then say, when the XML finishes loading and the user has decided to change the color of that textfield to red (0xFF0000), what would be the easiest way to change the text color of that field? The only way I can think to do it is to change the textformat color via public method? Would this be correct or is there an easier way?

I would like the text to start with animation, and after animation follow the mouse. Please enter this site, you can see here an example : [URL]. See that when you enter a country, it starts with a animation from the right, and then follows the user's mouse position until he exits the country. I am quite new to AS, I will be very glad if someone can explain what is the best approach for this. I am able to make the animation with the tween class, but was not able to make it follow the mouse after the animation ends. On the other hand I was also able making it follow my mouse but was not able to make it start with animation.
