Is there a way for flash to return a specific character from a string into dynamic text.
Example:
Code:
var headline = "kirupa"
character.text = 5th letter of headline
trace(character.text);
Then it would output the letter p, because it's the fifth letter.

Is there a character or word limit for the dynamic text box in Flash CS5? I am using Classic Text and am copying a large amount of text (about 4,700 words or 31,740 characers with spaces) into the text field, but the text is cut off at a certain point (at about 2,600 words or 17,795 characters). I'm using a UIScrollbar on the text box.The full text can be copied into Flash CS3 but not CS5 so what is going on? Did Adobe create a word limit in the new version? is there some other way around this, other than splitting up the text into 2 text fields? I should note that I cannot use TLF text for compatibility issues in case that is a possible solution.

View 4 RepliesI've been making a game in ActionScript 2.0 Flash CS3. Now I want to be able to display my characters alpha using dynamic text. The instance name for the character is char and the Var for the dynamic text is alpha. I want to be able to display the characters alpha and ALSO the characters current alpha in other levels for example.
Variable for lives in level 1:
_root.lives = 5;
Variable for lives in level 2:
_root.currentlives = lives;
I want to be able to do the exact thing but display the 'char' alpha instead.
Trough a button action I want to change the contents of a dynamic text field (i have five buttons in total). I made this textfield style bold, and added a (inner) shadow filter to it. Everytime a certain button gets clicked the content and colour of the textfield change. I want to retain the style and filter. However, while the colour change goes correct, the style and filter go back to regular..Through a coincidence i discovered that if I append the textfield in stead of replacing it entirely the transitions goes correctly.[code]In summary if i click the button with the append text action to it first, everything goes well..however when i click the buttons containing the replace text action first the style of the dynamic text field goes back to regular.
View 7 RepliesI need the use of the chars â„¢ and ® but only the latter appears. I'm using a loadVars object and an external .txt file which is loading with success, but where I need the phrase "Soo Bahk Doâ„¢ Moo Duk Kwan®," I only get "Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan®" Why doesn't "â„¢" load?
Edit: I'd like to add that I have chosen to embed all uppercase,lowercase, and punctuation marks, and I additionally added â„¢ and ® to ensure they'd appear, but, the trademark logo still does not appear.

Just to give you a little background, I am using CS4 and AS3, publishing to FP9. I am embedding fonts dynamically at runtime and there seems to be an issue with my dynamic 'html' text field when I have <b> tags within the CDATA.
In some cases, Flash seems to be rendering the bold text too close to the preceding character. Sometimes, even overlapping the preceding character. For the most part, this appears to be happening when the bold text appears at the end of the line before the text is wrapped.
I will note that, any text in the xml file wrapped in <b></b> tags is actually appearing bold, so I don't think it has anything to do with font embedding. In case it does, here is how I am embedding the font groups:
// Semi Bold
[Embed(source="/fonts/Anvers/AnversSemiBold.otf", fontName="AnversSemiBold", fontWeight="normal", fontStyle="regular", advancedAntiAliasing="true", mimeType="application/x-font")]
public static const ANVERS_SEMI_BOLD:Class;
I've had a Flash website up and running for about a year which includes an external text file linked to a dynamic text field.
Everything worked well until I recently added content to the external text file.
Suddenly, the file won't load in flash.
If I play around and cut a line here or there, it sometimes loads. Sometimes not. Sometimes it looks like there might be a character limit. Sometimes it looks like flash might be having a problem with certain characters.
So my questions are:
1.) Does Flash have a limit on the amount of characters that can be displayed in a dynamic field.
2.) If so, can this be changed with as3?
Is their any way to make character spacing tighter in dynamic text using Flash MX?

I'm working on an AS2 chat and I'd like to be able to place an emoticon at a specific location within a textbox. Is there a way of calculating a specific character's x & y position? I've even tried using textWidth and textHeight to calculate a specific location within the textbox, but the coordinates never really match. Keep in mind I have a multiline, wordwrap textbox with dynamic text in it. I've tried using monospace fonts and true type fonts, embedded and not, but the result is always very approximate, if not completely off.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to develop a module for voice recognition that could be integrated with a pre-existing flash website. I don't need the full speech recognition functionality, but a limited set of it (only specific commands like next, go etc). I looked at some functionality available like speechapi.I did try to do a bit of flash training by myself since i got into this project. So anyway, if I have to go ahead, will I have to do this in Actionscript?
View 1 RepliesI'm looking for handwriting recognition solution. I've found one here, which is a flash application. What's the principle of how it works? Does it make any queries to db to find the character?
View 3 RepliesI'm developing a web user interface to enter some information that is not very complex but needs to be loaded in real time. I think that the application could make use of speech recognition to facilitate the task.
Te core of the interface is being built with Javascript and jQuery, but can easily include a flash or silverlight component. I believe that´s probably the way to go. I don't need to recognize everything that the user says, but only a few prerecorded commands. Also, I don't want the user to click on a button to specify the begining and the end of the spoken command. It should be detected live.
Is there anything that does this? I would be grateful if anyone tells me about a complete solution, free or commercial, as well as any advice on capturing a sound stream from the mic and process it with flash or sliverlight.

I don't know if the topic describes the problem correctly, but here's the situation:I created a folder structure so I could work with packages, which I named com/gamistry/someproject"Then I created several .as files. "EggLoader.as", "Main.as", "Egg.as"EggLoader is a class that shows a basic progress bar, and is also the Document class. It is defined as being in the package "com.gamistry.someproject". Once it's done loading the swf, it creates an instance of "Main" (not having imported anything), and passes its stage property as the only argument. This all works perfectly.
Then the Main class starts running, and attempts to create an instance of "Egg", not having imported anything just like the previous example. It attempts to pass the single argument (defined as floor:int in Egg's constructor), but for some reason I get a compilor error 1136 "Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 0."It furthermore seems to know of none of Egg's public functions. Has anybody come across something like this before? Perhaps I am misunderstanding the purpose of packages?I've tried importing com.gamistry.someproject.*, but to no effect. If I explicitly define the myEgg instance as a "com.gamistry.someproject.Egg", and then call the new operator as a "new com.gamistry.someproject.Egg( floor )", the error disappears, but the program still does not execute as expected. No instance is visibly created on the stage, as it was when I was working with the exact same code base from the root package.Here's code samples (I omitted a lot of irrelevant code):
