Professional :: TLF Text Direction - Not Displaying The Text Icon Cursor And Don't Allow To Insert Text Inside
Aug 28, 2011When I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.
But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.

View 1 RepliesFlex :: Do 'anything' With The Selected Text In Mx:Label Or Mx:Text?
Jun 19, 2009Flex's text-editing controls (mx:TextField, mx:TextArea) offer functions for doing "stuff" with the selected text (selectionBeginIndex, selectionEndIndex, setSelection), but the text-displaying controls (mx:Label, mx:Text) don't seem to offer anything of the sort.After some tinkering, I've tried subclassing Label then writing functions which give access to the underlying TextField instance... But even then, setting the selection didn't work![code]So, is there any better way to access/change the text which is selected in mx:Label and mx:Text controls? Are there "better" controls to use?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Insert The Array Elements Into Text Box Label?
Apr 28, 2003I think that arrays are probably one of the more powerful tools available in flash,
mc with instance name but0
inside mc is a text box var name label , code is
[AS]label = _name;[/AS]
mc on main timeline code in frame 1 is:
subjects = new Array("page1","page2","page4","page4","page5")
butHeight = but0._height+5;
butNumber = subjects.length[code]....
What this code does is produce 5 buttons appearing one after the other, like a cascade effect, so far so good, I then want to insert the array elements into text box label, but all I get is subject, subject1, subject2 and so on.So, what do I need to do so that my buttons are called page1, page2 and so on.

Actionscript 3 :: Set The Text Field To Selected Value?
Dec 2, 2009I have a combo box and I am using the 'selectedIndex' property to give it a default value (a value that is at the first(0) index). Setting this property in my ActionScript does select the value in the dropdown but it does not add the selected value to the combo box's text area. How do you do this? I make has no affect on the text area.
Here is a sample of my code. The combo box list is populated fine. And the value is selected IN THE LIST. However, once you select a value in the list the combo box's list closes and nothing resides in the combo box's text field.
comboBoxData.insert(0, {data:1, label:"Show me something specific"});
for (i in animations) {
comboBoxData.push({data: i.uri ,label: "somevalue"});

Selected Text Highlight In Opened .as File?
Jul 21, 2009If i open .as file (or something else) in Notepad++ and select any variable or some other text, it will highlight all of the occurences of this variable in text of this opened document. And you can quickly see where this variable have assignemnts and so on. But in Flash CS3 i can only use standard Find dialog to search throug opened .as file and it finds only one occurence, then you hit "Find Next" and you've got another. Not so comfortable. So does that feature exist in Flash CS IDE, or something similar? (i can't find that)

Feb 10, 2009So.. all I want to do is to have a toggle button which changes label color to #999999 when selected. But for some reason i cant get it to work
This is my code for the button:
Code:
package components.main_content.submenu.submenu_link
{
import components.NoTruncationUITextField;
[Code]....
I tried assigning it with CSS (text-selected-color) and failed, i tried putting <mx:SetProperty target="{textField}" name="textColor" value="0x999999" /> in my skin class in all "selected" states but it worked only when run (one of the buttons starts as selected).. as soon as i ran my mouse over it or clicked another button it reverted back to the original color.

Flash :: Insert Text At Cursor In A TLF-based Flex Spark RichEditableText?
Oct 8, 2010I want to programmatically insert formatted text at the current cursor position in a Flex 4 (Spark) RichEditableText control. I could just modify the .text property But that doesn't allow me to insert formatted text. So I believe I need to interact with either .textFlow or .textFlow.interactionManager somehow? However, TLF is quite complex and I can't find a simple way to do what I want.
