I have attached and sample file with problem that show when you hover over the red link it shift the text. It only happens when I use antiAliasType = advance or my text field set to readability in combination to external or internal StyleSheet.
View 6 RepliesI am trying to find out when a link is 'hovered over' in a text area showing html text. I wonder if listening for a cursor change kind of event might be the way. I can't find anything in the docs.
View 4 RepliesI'd like to be able to detect, in flash, events like on Rollover for HREF tags which were embedded into a dynamic html textfield. Perhaps a listener of some sort?

View 1 RepliesAnyone know of a way to shift the first line of a single input line down so that it doesn't crowd the top edge of a text field? I could use a background sprite and have a textField positioned over the background, but I'd like to avoid this if possible. This is for fp9, not 10 so subscript won't help me.
It appears like TextLineMetrics are read only? Leading won't shift the first line and blockIndent only works on left/right margins?
I have four buttons each of them are an instance of my generic_btn. They are empty buttons with just a hit area.
then I have static text that I would like to have the color change when the user navigates over it how can I do this? Do i need to combine the text and generic button into a movieclip for each button?
Add Button with dynamic text and hover state
I haven't used flash for a bit but I'm really stuck on something that should be simple.
I want to add buttons or MoiveClip to make a navigation.
Each button will have different text on it and they need a hover state that changes the color of the text.
I have done this to add the buttons with text. This works but I do get an error message.
How can I change the color of the text when I hover over the button ? How can I stop the error message ?

I am trying to modify the hover caption tutorial from here at Kirupa to load the text in the caption from an external text file. Could anyone give me a hand trying to figure this out?I tried the simple way of loading external text but because the text is loaded in a MovieClip this does not work. Here is my code for the hover menu that currently loads the text dynamically through ActionScript:
MovieClip.prototype.resize = function() {
var w = box.caption.textWidth+0
var h = box.caption.textHeight+0;

I'm using CS5 actionscript 2. I would like to create hovering text when one mouses over an item in the navigation window (please see pic). You know, something that would act like a brief abstract to give the user more info re: whether or not they need to click on that link.At present, the nav_mc is linked to an xml doc FYI (the nav_mc accordians in and out, but doesn't have to). I input what I want the menu and submenu to say in the xml nodes and it shows up. It would be cool if the hover text added could also be xml driven tooI am green to this so the more detail the better. Do I need to create a new xml doc? new .swf? How do I link this? Should I use Flash Builder or Catalyst?
View 6 RepliesI dowloaded and played with the following scroller on this site... [URL] I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text. If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link. Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
View 3 RepliesI have an AS3 flash movie and each page is a new frame. On my pages are dynamic scrollable text boxes that I created with the text tool. I would like to be able to make a piece of text a link (ex. click here for prices) so that it will direct the view to another page (label). I cannot figure out how to do so.
View 2 RepliesI'm having a little trouble using URL links in text. If I select a part of the text and give it a URL link (I'm using mailto: links here), strange things are happening to all the text in that text box at runtime in some cases the leading changes, other times some or all of the text disappears. But it only happens at runtime, so I have no way of knowing if or how to compensate. And simply removing the offending link or linked text doesn't fix the problem once the link has been created the only way to fix it is to create a new text box with no links.

View 1 RepliesI have a psd that is to be the background of a flash site that i'm working on. I've tried every combination of exporting from photoshop and flash but the end result (in the browser) is always significantly brighter.Does anyone know what the best prossess for keeping the colour of imported raster content accurate in swf while keeping the size moderate?
View 1 RepliesI have a simple movie of a person - torso, arms, legs, each on a separate layer. I'm adding a walk cycle and use tweens to move the arms and legs. This works fine when I export to an swf. But when I group and try to export to a movieclip, the arms jump way up. This seems like a simple problem of adjusting coordinates, origins, etc. But I'm kind of a newbie, so does someone have a suggestion for me? How do I export to a movieclip and have it playback the same as when exporting to a swf?

View 1 RepliesI have an issue with links in a text box which are pulled in from a xml file.The problem is that when I have the antialias setting set to Advanced the links will shift their position to the left when you hover over them. If i turn the antialias setting off or to Normal the problem is fixed, but the text doesn't look as nice.
Here are the settings for my textbox.
Code:
bodyText.defaultTextFormat = txtFmt;
bodyText.styleSheet = cssStyle;
bodyText.embedFonts = true;
bodyText.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;

Is there any fix to determine which shift key is pressed on a Mac?

View 1 Replieswhen a moive clip is clicked in my program it's instance is saved in a var _root.dis_one. My code makes the movie clip move when the shift key isn't down according to the arrow keys, and it is supposed to resize the clip if the shift key is down _root.dis_one is storing the proper var, but i am having a trouble with the resizing part. It will rezise a pre-maid movie clip, but it won't resize my dynamic movie clips. is there a certain way to rezise a dynamic MC?

Am having a poke around with an area when pressed, it will reloated the mouse position.I dont think it is this simple.

So i am building a site for a client, and in it i have incorporated an automatically cross-fading background made of large photos.Wheneve they cross fade programatically my CPU gets WORKED!
I am using
Code:
if (this.photo1.imageholder1._alpha<100-this.fadeSpeed) {
this.photo1.imageholder1._alpha += this.fadeSpeed;
}
as the fading command. Is it just a characteristic of flash that it HATES to do ALPHA changes?
I broke apart all JPGs and converted them to symbols.And they all have correct X & Y coordinates.But while tweening the JPGs shift a tiny bit. Anyone know how to stop the JPGs doing the jiggle shift error?(I've seen it before, and thought I could fix it by breaking apart the JPGs and making symbols out of them, but the JPGs still have that quiver bug now)
View 2 Replieswhy the below script does not keep circularly shifting my array (ie. array = [1,2,3,4] -> [4,1,2,3]->[3,4,1,2] etc..)

How can I pop or shift more than one element of an array in the same time? I have been searching, and I can't find the answer anywhere. My new project is to pop or shift 3 element of an array of let's say of 100 elements, and with a click of a button display them into a textfield having in mind the date factor. If today I click the button, it'll give me the same numbers, all the day; but when tomorow i'll click the button, it will give me another set of numbers all the day long, and so on. Do I make sense and continue, or I just forget about it ? I have the button, the array, how to acces the date, and flash CS 5.5. All I need I believe, is How to pop or to shift more than one element.

differencePercentage = Math.round(((Pay.init / Pay.current) * 100) - 100);
and that gives me the difference in percent between initial and current pay, but it's reversed. When it's positive i.e. pay is above the initial value it says -X%, and when it's below it says X%.
If I encode all colors into one single float value (RGB) as:
//Each Channels are from 0 - 255
red << 16 | green << 8 | blue;
How can I retrieve those color channels back in AGAL? There doesn't seem to be any bitwise operators.
What I'm trying to do is take a recording from the mic which is converted into bytearray. It will look something like this
ActionScript Code:

}function stopRecord():void{
mic.removeEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA, micSampleDataHandler);
soundBytes.position = 0;
