How can i disable an input text box? What i want to do is once the upload button is clicked the input text box vname_txt and vdesc_txt are disabled. Which mean no text can be changed.
View 3 RepliesI currently have a button which checks to see if the values of text boxes are correct before displaying a tick or a cross to indicate this.I want to disable the input text boxes so no data can be written into them once they are correct...So my code so far within the button:
on (release) {
if (input1 == "140" && input2 == "180" && input3 == "140" && input4 == "180" && input5 ==
"640") { //if these values are entered in the input boxes <input1> etc.

View 10 RepliesI'm doing a presentation flash and in my presentation, I don't want to show my mouse movement.
I have a text input box for me to enter text. The text box property is set to dynamic.
I have create a keylistener for me to press "I" or "i" and when I press "I", I want my text input box to enable me to type text in.
How can I code in AS to achieve this action?
Initial state of text input box is disabled, when I press "I" or "i" text input enabled and I can type in text. After that, I press another key, will disable the typing of text again.

View 1 RepliesI have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

I'm working on homework for my scripting class and having some issue with keyboard input (trouble finding advice on anything involving keyboard input as well). The set up is that a function can be called by either clicking a button or using a key (spacebar in this instance). When this is done via the mouse and the button it prevents the function from working again until the "bullet" goes so far off screen.The problem comes from being unable to figure out how to also disable input from the keyboard, or spacebar specifically, to also put that pause inbetween the shots.Quote:
function firingFunction() {
// mark start time
var lastTime:int = getTimer();

I'm trying to extend the text input that comes in flex to support an icon, just like mac os x search text input has a grey circle aligned to the right, the text input has a addChild method, but it didn't work for me.
View 2 Repliesthe last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

I saw vinayak.kadam advising someone if they wanted to disable an input box they could do this...
Code:
instanceName_txt.type = "dynamic";
But I want to access my text field through an array...
Code:
lockArr = [box1.lock1,box2.lock1,box3.... etc etc // instance names of button clips
tArr = [box1.field1,box2.field1,box3.... etc etc // instance names of input text field clips
for(var n=0;n!=lockArr.length;n++){
[code]...
so If can I not set the type property of a text field if I'm referencing it through an array?
