ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic TextFields Does Not Display All Specified Word
Aug 19, 2010
I make a dynamic textfield, specify it's instance, then assign it a string or variable with AC, but often the dynamic text will not display all the text or variables. For example, I say
warning.text = "Please do not enter more info than necessary.";
Yet what appears onscreen, is:
"lease do not enter more ino tan neesary."
This happens no matter how big I make the text area, or how small I make the text, so I don't get why it's not all viewed. (Btw When I copy from the textfield I do get all the text)

Now the menu is something like this: [URL] This is the menu with all the classes and some comments. If you don't want to download it... [URL] this is the class for creating textfield.

I have been using TextFields like this to render text for a game. I've been developing in FlashDevelop, so the SWF is compiled using the Flex compiler.
My problem is that this text is not displayed with the appropriate formatting when I view it inside the browser as opposed to a flashplayer (which looks fine). Different screen resolutions tend to vary in how they distort text in the browser.
var welcomeText:TextField = new TextField();
//formatText creates a TextFormat object, sets those values into TextFormat
//then returns after doing TextField.defaultTextFormat = TextFormatObj;

I need to display a word passed to the flash movie through flashvars. My objective is to display this word centered inside a black rectangle which length adapts to the word length. The box should be on top of everything, aligned with the right margin of the Flash Movie and 100px from the top margin.

I'm learning AS3 with Flex Builder 2, and have run into all sorts of difficulties when trying to embed a font so that a group of textfields will display correctly when they are tweened. There are a number of examples posted across the web which apparently work fine for other people, but I've tried them unsuccessfully. Perhaps this is because other people are using the Flash 9 alpha and it works differently in Flex, though I don't know why that should be. For example, with this code I receive an error that says "Unable to resolve "C:WindowsFontsARIAL.TTF for transcoding" even though the file exists in that location.

I am having a few problems atm with flash and wondering whether I am asking too much from flash or whether I am being stupid. Basically what I am trying to achieve is a box that is 300px by 300 px, within that box I have some text that I would like to place inside. As I would like to be able to regularly update this box (its a news feed) I have linked it too a .txt file. The problems that I have come across is that flash seems to have a limit on the amount of text it will allow in a dynamic text field. As even tho I have more text in my txt document, its is not displayed. This is how I have come to the presumtion that flash must be limiting the amount of text.

I searched the forums and couldn't find anything relevant to my issue.I'm creating 3 textfields and loading XML into them. What i need is to add a "label" before each textfield on the stage. For instance i'm pulling a city name from the XML file,i want to insert the word, "Location" on the stage before the textfield with the city's name in it. Here's a snippet from my code where i'm loading one of the variables into one of the dynamic textfields.
Code:
var where:TextField = new TextField();
where.text = eventsXML.Event[0].City;
where.x = 85;
where.y = 81;
I want it to appear on the stage as: Location: Sydney, Australia

so i want to have my dynamic text listed with a consistent space between each textfield. However, the textfields can have varying amounts of text, so just doing txt.y = t*40 would not cut it. I've tried getting txt.length to calculate how many lines it would be, but if i change the font size it changes everything.

I'm trying to create an url to a word inside a dynamic textbox but I'm not sure how to do that. I'm familiar with TextFormats, etc. but that only apply to the textbox and not to a word or a sentence inside that textbox. Or have I been misguided??

I have a submit button that I'm pulling in from XML.
It needs to be XML because it is translated.
Therefore... the length is varying depending on the language.
I simply want to add an arrow to the end of the word using Webdings #4 (it looks like a solid arrow, not like > but solid)..

Is there a way to show a long text in a dynamic text field with multiline attribute = on, without word wrapping? E.g., A dynamic text field contains 2 lines, and multiline is set to on. If I try to display a text in the text field, it is wrapping at the word, thereby losing some space in the text field (see code below):
my_fmt.size = 50;
this.createTextField("my_txt", 1, 100, 100, 280, 150);
my_txt.multiline = true;
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
my_txt.border = true;
my_txt.text = "One Hundredyears of solitude";
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
The display is showing only "One Hundredyear" in two lines, and the rest of characters are below the visible text area. The issue here is in the first line there is only "One" displayed, leaving a lot of space. If I can accommodate more characters in the first line, without word wrapping, the second line can accommodate the rest of the characters.

let's say you had a dynamic text field with a number (for example '30'). Everytime you click on a certain button / movie clip, that triggers an animation (so far no problem) AND adds '20' to the number in that textfield.
==> first click, the number displays 50 (30+20), second click 70 (50+20) ...
When you enter a certain keyframe and that number is higher than let's say 290, the movie jumps to frame x. If that number equals 290 or is lower than 290, the movie jumps to frame y.

This is about a self assessment quiz.There will be four options and each one has a scale from1-5 i.e., "option a" has 1mark, "option b" has 2marks,"option c" has 3 marks, "option d" has 4marks and "option e" has 5 marks and we count the answered and we display the score for example if there are 20 question in it if they answered "option e" 5 times the score will be 25 and option d 5 times the score will be 20, and if "option c" for 5 times the score will be 15,and "option b" for 3 times the score will be 6 and "option a" two times the score will be 2, and we add up all the score and display in a dynamic text field called "score" and the total score is 68.
And I have another dynamic text field called "tsc" where I have to display the tags like excellent , good, better ......etc. Till now every thing is fine but I am unable to compare them it is displaying excellent even if i get 10 marks. If the score is greater than 55 "tsc" should display Excellent, if the score is greater than 41 or less than 55 "tsc" should display Best, if the score is greater than 26 or less than 40 "tsc" should display Better,if the score is none of the above "tsc" should display Poor.
This is my code on the submit button:
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("sQ");
if (scor>=55) {
tsc = "Excellent";
} else if (scor == 41 && scor<=55) {
[Code] .....
Where:"sQ" is the frame name where i am displaying the score details"scor" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying total score"tsc" is the var name for the dynamic text field for displaying the tags llike good, Excellent, better, poor.....etc.
