I have a textField that I'm populating dynamically through loadVariables. The text that is being loaded dynamically is HTML with an <img> tag. Once I autoSize the texField the image is removed.
View 2 RepliesI want to put together a flash gallery of photography for my photography business. I am very good at Photoshop design, html, css, javascript but I am a novice with flash. I can use it and use some actionscripting but my knowledge is limited.
I see galleries like this one: [URL]
The images expand and contract perfectly as the browser is resized. I am used to having to size pics for the lowest res screens (I design for 1024 width resos's usually).
What size should I make pictures to work like this... Does flash scale them down / up / either... are there quality issues with letting flash manage the sizing.
Is there a way to have the TileList component to auto-size to its contents? I have tried setting it 100%, but it seems that won't help. I don't want to hard-code the height because the content will be vary, and I don't want scrollbars to show up.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to have a dynamic text field with a black background. I want the text to be of fixed width, but expandable height, and for the background to grow with the text field depending on the input. I looked at the "autoSize" property for TextField, but it looks like that only adjusts the width.
Some "pseudocode" for your consideration:
rolloverInfoBox.infoTextTitle.text="Title";
rolloverInfoBox.infoTextBody.text="Text body...";
rolloverInfoBox.infoTextBody.autoSize=true; // doesn't work; just for reference
rolloverInfoBox.expandableBackground.height=rollov erInfoBox.infoTextBody.height;
I have an interface that will have a variable amount of buttons in it and the text on each button can be anywhere from 10 characters to 30 characters. What I'd like to do is to have my buttons auto-size width wise based on the length of the text. I don't think that will be too difficult but I'd also like to have rounded corners on the top of the buttons so that they'll look like tabs and from my experience when you change the width of these buttons that have rounded corners they start looking a bit odd since they won't retain their original radius
View 2 RepliesI am working on a flex app that uses XML templates to dynamically create DisplayObjects. These templates define different layouts that can be used for each page of content in the app (ie , 2 columns, 3 columns etc etc). The administrator can select from one of these and populate each area with their content.
The templates add one of 3 types of DisplayObject - HBox, VBox or a third component - LibraryContentContainer (an mxml component that is defined as part of the app) - which is effectively a canvas element with a TextArea inside. The problem that I am getting is that I need each of these areas to automatically resize to fit the length of the content but don't seem to be able to find an effective way to do so.
In the LibraryContentContainer, when the value of the TextArea is set, I am calling .validateNow() on the LibraryContentContainer. I then set the height property on both the TextArea and LibraryContentContainer to match the textHeight property of the TextArea. In the following example, this is the LibraryContentContainer, viewer is the TextArea and the value property of the TextArea is bound to this.__Value. v is the variable containing the content for the textarea

I'm adding text to a movieclip as you can see below. The text is alomost not visible because it's so small. If I don't scale the movieclip then the text becomes clipped. I basically want the movieclip to be a tight container (the same size as the textfield) for the Textfield. The below does not work. How can I do this?

My question today is dealing with a dynamically generated button with a textField.I have the button copy in XML and I need to add a buffer of 10 pixels to either side of the textField. I tried to CENTER my textFormat, but then I could not see my text because the button is for some strange reason 545.45 instead of 88 like it should be. When I change the alignment to LEFT then I can see my text, but still the larger issue is my button size is horribly off.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a set of 5 TextFields that a user enters info into. Each has the same TextFormat applied. If the focus is set by clicking with the mouse, the TextFormat is applied and all is well. If the focus is set by tabbing, the TextFormat is not applied and a default style for the font is seen. Here's my code:
Code:
var input1:TextField = new TextField();

I've set the publish settings to 100% width and 100% height and have then added the 'noScale' function into the first frame of my timeline. Here is an idea of what I'm trying to create:
I have three movieclips that are touching the left side of the Stage and want them to touch the left side of the browser but centre vertically. I can do this by adding the 'Stage.align = LC' command, but not sure if this is the right way to go about it.
The movieclip that is on top contains a logo and I want it to have a fixed size. I called the instance name 'logo_mc'.
The movieclip below 'logo_mc' is called 'container_mc' and is a strip of photographs that I need to run from the left to the right side of the browser no matter what the browser size. I need this movieclip to scale proportionally up and down as they viewer resizes their browser so the first photo is touching the left side of the browser and the last picture is touching the right side (without distorting).
The final movieclip is called 'buttons_mc' and is right below the 'container_mc' clip. This movieclip needs to remain a fixed size.
Obviously when the 'container_mc' clip resizes I need the other movieclips to move up and down to stay the same distance above and below the 'container_clip'.

[URL] how to build something like that with controllable column numbers, width and images that might be using XML.the main thing is how to accomplish such an effect?P.S. I've developed an Image Slider using Flash Builder 4.5 The problem is that when I included that in HTML page when someone performs ZOOM with CTRL+ Mouse wheel in a browser, the DIV that holds my SWF file and SWF file itself increases in size but the image itself that is inside my slider still remains of the same size.. How to fix it?
View 1 RepliesSo I've created a flash movie that is 950x750 and have filled the background (bg) with an image. Then I created a HTML page and corresponding CSS so that the movie fills the browser window. Inside the flash movie I have done some calculations to make the background re-size so that it too fill the browser window. However, my calculations must be screwy, because the background is always either out of position, or resizes improperly. Grab my work files from here (didn't attach them here due to filesize restrictions): [URL]

how could we remove auto tag adding by htmlText Property because when we apply htmlText for a textfield it automatically add <p> and <font> tag. In my project i am saving one textfield property <p align='right'> in server but when i am assigning this value from server its changing to <p align='left'>. So how could we remove this auto formatting by htmlText? As in [URL] link there is written also "When its htmlText property is traced, the output is the HTML-formatted String, with additional tags (such as <P> and <FONT>) automatically added by Flash Player." i want to remove this auto adding tag.

Just wondering if anyone knows how to auto-resize an image in flash/xml. I have a flash slideshow that is loading an external xml file with images, but would like the images to appear no larger than a certain size in flash. I'm not really sure if it would be better to do this in flash or in the xml file. I have tried setting a fixed width and height within the xml file with no luck (it is still displaying the image at its original size in flash).
