I would like to create a scrollbar for a dynamic textfield but do not want to use the common component. I found this script: [URL]. It seems very easy, but don't manage to have it work. And I don't understand how it manages the scrolling. it's only the 4 most essential lines I do not understand.
View 1 RepliesI want to make a textfield where I load my text in (via txt or xml?). Depending on how much text I load in the textfield, the textfield will get longer and Therefore the scrollbar will get smaller/bigger.

I am loading some text from an XML file and plcaing it into dyncamically created TextField. But if the text is long, it doesn't comes automatically in next line and goes out of the screen. I I use Text Area, then it shows a scrollbar. How can I load text in such a manner that ir automatically comes to next line and doesn't even shows a scrollbar?
View 1 RepliesI have searched the internet and these forums for a easy to understand way to make a custome scroll bar for my dynamic text boxes. However I cannot find any, and this the code I have:

var scrollRange:Number= scrolllower-scrollupper;var textRange:Number= textlower-textupper;

I am currently creating an online portfolio using Slideshowpro [URL]. For some of my pictures I am using (external) captions from a XML file, inserted into a dynamic textfield. As some of the captions contain a lot of text I decided to add a UIScrollBar. However, when there is no text (no caption) available, I want the scrollbar to be hidden. Also if there is not enough text to warrant a scrollbar it would be great if it could be hidden!
Code below, note that "t_txt" is the instance name of my dynamic textfield:
import flash.text.TextField;
import net.slideshowpro.slideshowpro.*;
import fl.controls.UIScrollBar;
XML.ignoreWhitespace = true;
//remove scrollbar from stage, scrollbar component must be in library
var sbContent:UIScrollBar = new UIScrollBar();
[Code] .....
Simply as I can put it, I drag a Datefield component on stage and then create a dynamic text field on stage. I'm looking for the actionscript to make the selected date from the DateField also appear in the dynamic textfield.
I've found the script to do this for a numeric stepper
var my_nstep:mx.controls.NumericStepper;
var nstepListener:Object = new Object();
nstepListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object){
myText.text = evt_obj.target.value;
}
my_nstep.addEventListener("change", nstepListener);
I've tried modifying this script to work with the datefield but all I can get to happen is for the dynamic textfield to say "undefined."
I am having some trouble with a dynamic html-enabled textfield and the uiscrollbar component. I created a dynamic textfield on the stage, named it "mytext". Enable it for HTML and make it multiline. I added this action: mytext.htmlText="test<BR><BR>test<BR><BR>test" The html shows up just fine. I add a uiscrollbar to it. It is definitely targeted for "mytext". Now when I test it I get: _level0.mytext in the textbox instead. When I trace mytext.htmlText, I get the correct HTML but it just doesn't show up. When I shorten my content so that the UIscrollbar isn't necessary, the HTML is again displayed correctly. Now if I update the code to say instead:

i want to add scrollbar to textfield using as3 code. can you give me advice or sample code.???please!!.

friendField.x = 30;

I made a custom scrollbar for a textfield that works like a charm... but in it's "alpha-state", it was only showing where the text was scrolled to (and how long the text is, by it's own height)- you couldn't actually click the scrollbar and drag it. So I added a little AS to the actual scrolling block MC that *should* work... and kind of does- but not like I think it logically should..?
[Code]...
Curious to know if anyone has found any open source AS3 Scrollbar components that work with the TextField much in the way the V2 components of the same names worked.
View 4 RepliesI am loading xml and using Colin Moock's scrollbar as he desrcibes it in Essential Actionscript 3.0. It all worked fine until I tried to put a link to a jpg inside the xml.Where other html tags give no problem, the img seems to mess with the textfield height. I gave the textfield a fixed height but when I try to scroll the field with the image, and trace the textfield height, it increases more and more when I scroll down, messing up the scrollbar.the img tag looks like this (and it loads fine into the textfield):
Code:
<IMG ALIGN= "left" SRC='pics/portret.jpg' WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="207" HSPACE='0' VSPACE='10' />
The slightly adapted scrollbar class looks like this (I gave the scrolltrack a fixed height and tried to give t.height a fixed height too within this class but tracing t.height keeps showing that it is increasing while scrolling down):
Code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.*;[code]..............
So I think that the code or flash doesn't handle the img very well,
I'm doing wrong here? I want to use a Blixt's scrollbar to scroll a dynamic textfield that's is set to a autosizing height.... And I'm having problems. I though I had finally found my perfect scrollbar.... it's so close!

I've been using a scrollbar/scrollpane component to create scrollable timelines for use in court cases. However these components interfere with printing, I imagine because the content needs to be attached from the library and so the printJob function seems not to see the scrolling content.

I'm trying to have a scrollbar in my .fla for controlling images (put together in a movie clip) and viewing the different ones. The scrollbar component only seems to work with text boxes, and I can't find a decent tutorial on how to use scroll panes (or why I should) to save my life.It seems SO simple.
View 3 RepliesI'd like to adjust the width of the default ScrollBar that appears inside of a Flash ComboBox. From my research on various forums, it seems like the best approach would be to subclass fl.controls.ScrollBar, which I've tried doing here:
package helpers {
import fl.controls.ScrollBar;
public class CustomScroller extends fl.controls.ScrollBar {
[Code].....
Then, in my library, I've taken the "ScrollBar" movie clip that appears upon initial creation of a ComboBox and changed the base class to "helpers.CustomScroller". I've got three ComboBox instances on the stage; however, none of them are showing anything but the default width, nor am I seeing the output from the trace() statement in my constructor.
I'm trying to display a custom component i made inside a panel but when it renders the content is displayed outside of the panel box and there's no scrollbar.a panelan instance of myComponent inside the panela button that calls a method on myComponent that adds some controls into itWhen i run the application and press the button the following is displayed:See that the controls added dynamically in myComponent get over the panel's bottom line instead of showing only the visible part of the component and a scrollbar.
View 1 RepliesI have yet to find a good and simple tutorial regaurding the skinning of the scrollBar component so I am trying to fake it...
Simply put I have MC buttons underneath the scroll bar and the bar itself is invisible... I need to know what the name of the actual scrubber bar (the one you drag arround) is called so i can attach a movieClip to it and match it's width/height and X position
does anyone know it? --- or Can someone simply explain how i would go about actually skinning it? Everything i have seen says open haloTheme or sampleTheme and edit those but I just want to change it once (not perminantly).
I parse an xml file that his content is:
Code:

I display the name of operator in a TextField after parsing the xml file my problem is to loop through this different TextField with a fade effect.
I use AS3 which I keep separate from my fla project.
I have a contact page and the textfield where you type your message is an Input textfield with multiline and textwrap enabled. The height of my textfield allows for 5 lines of text, then you will have to start scrolling after that.
I use a my own scroll bar nested in a movieclip with instance name "txtScroller"
The Input textfield instance name is "messageText"
What I want to do: I want to hide the "txtScroller" mc and show it when the user has typed more than 5 lines of text (using enter to break to a new line, etc).
Now for my problem: The first part of the code works, the "txtScroller" mc is hidden, and I have even tested it with the trace function (see code bellow).
I can for the life of me NOT get the the second part to work, the part where i want to show "txtScroller" mc again. I've treid with the trace function as well but it shows nothing in the 'output' pannel (see code bellow).
The Code:
This is all I have with regards to hiding or showing the "txtScroller" mc.
Code:
if (messageText.numLines <= 5) {
trace("less");
txtScroller.visible = false;

i just want to remove the down and up arrow from a scrollbar component in flash cs3.
I've tried to remove the movieclips but than the flash would throw errors(which is obvious), than i tried to delete the graphics inside the arrows but with no luck.
Edit: I forgot to mention that i want the actual scrollbar area to expand if i remove the arrows.
