ActionScript 2.0 :: Importing XML - Strip Unintentional Line Breaks From Text?

Jan 29, 2010

I know that I've seen a few threads about this, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for. I've got an AS2 flash site using XML to import the text, then parsing it. I have a function that gets the text, then applies styles (css) to it. I'm wondering if there is an easy way to strip the unintentional line breaks at the same time, within the same function? Here is my get text function:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Unwanted Line Breaks When Importing Html

Sep 4, 2009

I'm importing html in Flash 8 and the dynamic text box won't see the text in a paragraph as one single string. Wherever there's a line break in the external text file (not using html tags), it also shows that break in flash unlike a regular html page which ignores these line breaks. I don't even need to use the <br> tag to make an intentional line break.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Line Breaks In Dynamic Text

Jun 22, 2009

I've finally got XML information coming into my text field. Only problem now is that there for every line break in the text, Flash reads it as two line breaks, for example:

XML:
Line 1
Line 2

Flash:
Line 1

Line 2

I found that you can just use the <br> tag in the original text or if I'm using actionscript to input the text I can use or but what if I'm using text generated by a CMS which my client needs to be able to use?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Line Breaks To Text Fields?

Jun 11, 2009

I have a string (from xml) I want to display on stage. Currently I have a text field that I am simply assigning the text to (no problems) but I want to add line breaks at certain points.after reading this line:

"If the text includes a line break (for example, "
" or "
"), the bottom is also resized to fit the next line of text."

found here: [URL]

I got the impression that I could add a string to text with a line break in it? If I try and add it to my xml file it simply writes it out as normal characters.

I am fairly sure I can do it by showing as HTML but was wondering if there was another way ?

ActionScript 3.0 :: HTML Text And Embedded Fonts - Line Breaks Ignored

Aug 20, 2008

When using a StyleSheet with html text in a dynamic textfield with embedded fonts line breaks are ignored. It is as if TextField.condenseWhite is being set to true. Essentially the <p> tags are being treated as a <br/> tag. If I don't embed fonts it works fine. Another weird thing is if I add an empty paragraph <p></p> between the first two paragraphs it makes any subsequent paragraph behave correctly.

E.g.
<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>
Displays as if there are <br/> between each one.

But
<p>first paragraph text here</p>
<p></p>
<p>second paragraph text here</p>
<p>third paragraph text here</p>
behaves correctly even for the third paragraph.

Here is the code I am working with (using XML as I am dynamically populating the textfield from XML). After reading [URL] I tried the same experiment using a TF drawn in the IDE, the results for each, even though the TextFields are essentially the same are totally different. Updated Code accordingly - just need a TF on stage, called "ideTextField" with font 'Arial'.

Flash :: TLF - Flowing Text Through Multiple Containers And Line Breaks?

Nov 20, 2010

I'm using TLF to lay out a dictionary entry. It's working fairly well, but I need finer grained control of layout than I'm able to achieve through setting style properties on FlowElements, primarily for horizontal spacing and setting padding on SpanElements independently of their parents.

The solution that seems most promising is separating the various elements of the entry into separate containers and flowing the text through them by progressively adding new containers and ContainerControllers for each new element with size set to their content bounds so that the text will flow into each new container.

This ALMOST works, but the text will only flow correctly into the next container if an extra line break is inserted between the two sections of text that should go to different containers. Without the line break, the containers are sized correctly, but no text displays.

In these examples I've added borders to the container sprites so you can see where they're being drawn. Aside from the line break, the text is exactly the same. The syllable field is a SpanElement inside a ParagraphElement. The pronunciation label and text are separate SpanElements inside another ParagraphElement.

[Code]...

As you can see, the pronunciation doesn't show unless a line break is added after the text, but the alignment is then off. No combination of line breaks seems to align them correctly.

Any ideas? Are these bugs in TLF? Should I try a different method? I would really like to have all the text selectable as one unit, and I love the better rendering and control that TLF offers, but I also need the layout flexibility. I suppose it's possible that I could hack something together like this with line breaks and positioning offsets, but it certainly wouldn't be pretty (or maintainable).

ActionScript 2.0 :: HTML Text / Embed Fonts Line-breaks Ignored?

Jan 25, 2010

I'm having a problem with my imported HTML text - basically when I switch on 'Embed fonts' for a text field, Flash will only ever render one line break, regardless of how many </p> <br /> or whatever other type of line-breaking tag you can imagine are present.What this means is that all my paragraphs are squashed up into one, with no double line-break after the closing </p> tag, as you'd expect.I've used html text with css before and normally experience the opposite problem, whereby whitespace linebreaks in the imported text are rendered, but this problem is a new one on me.

Flash Player now supports Cascading Style Sheets!Macromedia Inc. announced today a new version of Flash Player that supports Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) text styles.The way around it is to let the text after the break tag follow that break tag:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Detecting Line Breaks In Textarea?

I am developing an admin tool for a client. There is a textarea in the tool that the client will type out a description for the video he wants to upload.

My question is, how do I detect the line breaks in the text area and change them to HTML breaks <br> once the user submits the data?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detecting Line Breaks In HtmlText?

Oct 10, 2009

I know you can identify line breaks when working with text files by checking the character equivalent, but is this possible to do with htmlText?
 
I am making a text editor for my client and I am using the textArea component as the input field with the data stored in an XML. All's well, except for the line break--the textArea is rendered as htmlText so that the client will be able to see the changes made instantly. By default, it works, but the spacing is all screwed up (indents, double-spaces at times), so I decided to condense the whitespace. With this on, it gets rid of the spacing issues since the html is being rendered exactly as coded. The thing is, hitting enter in the textArea does not add <br /> to the htmlText code.
 
Do i need to overwrite the Enter key with a custom function that inserts a ine break when using the textArea, or is there a way to detect and convert these line breaks in htmlText?
