I have multiple text fields on different frames with frame labels. The first page loads fine but when I click the button to jump to page 2, the text changes but it stays at the bottom (the button on page 1 is at the bottom).
Is there a way to force the text to scroll to the top after it jumps to a new page?
I know you can use the mouse wheel to scroll through text in the flash componenet scroll pane, but is there a way to set it up to work with the code I have posted below?
fscommand("allowscale", "false"); bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false; space = 5;[code].....
I've gotten to chapter 5 in my AS 3.0 classroom book but I need to use wisdom today (CHAPTERS before I gain it for myself),I need to create a custom scroll bar with buttons that function just like the UIScrollBar but more visually suited to our projects. the boss demands it.
I found several tutorials on creating the custom scrollBar, however, they don't include the buttons and I'm unable to find a tutorial on how to create a button scroller (I figured I could link them both to my "info_txt" after creating them separately). how to create an AS3 text scrollBar WITH buttons? how to create a nice scroll effect with buttons(if creating the scroll bar and buttons apart then linking them to the same text field is not possible or a faulty way to accomplish this).
im new to actionscript 3. I have some problems in creating mouseover scroll. wat i want to do is to scroll the text (which was created as movie clip) when i mouse over on the button. and stop the scrolling when i mouse out. thou i have some examples on how to make it work with actionscript 1 and 2, i dunno how to change it to actionscript 3.

I have a library MovieClip the I am putting into the Scroll Pane. Inside this MovieClip is a Dynamic Text field that I fill with data. I have the ScrollPane on my stage and have used the source, refreshPain and update to try and get the new information from the dynamic text field into the Scroll Pain. To no avail all I get is the orginal text that was in the box when it started.
I 'm trying to make it so an image will scroll with a specific line of text in a text field. I know that using delta of the scrollEvent will give me direction but everytime i try to increment and decrement the y value of the image the image doesn't follow the line of text perfectly it tends to "crawl" if you will.
I want to make a Flash app that will scroll text whilst music plays. The music part is easy, but scrolling the text...I've tried simply importing ALL of the text, resizing, and scrolling that one giant object upwards, but when the screen was full of text it began to slow down. I need the speed uniform to sync it with the music in the background.
I could have a 70,000,000,000 frame movie and move each element individually, avoiding the heavy load, but the amount of work on my end this would require would be so astronomical that it just wouldn't be worth it. Ideally I want something like a component that I can dump text into and have it deal with making the scroll speed uniform.
It would also be a major plus point if it could be used/created by another program, so that someone without Adobe Flash could produce a similiar kind of movie simply by putting in their text and MP3 file and hitting a "Generate" button.
I like to know an easy way to create a text autoscroll (vertical) that worked when the text was loaded from another text file. it can use for news/site update. see the attachment.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of any tutorials that th creating a body of text that is from XML, that is scrollable (scroll bars and arrows), and will alllow for HTML links in the text?
Im supposed to make a marquee that has curved dynamic text scrolling through it. I used the displacement map filter for this and it almost works. the only problem is that when the dynamic text field gets to a certain x position, the filter stalls, but the text continues to scroll. Im really at a loss. heres what I got so far: [URL]
Basically, my whole website's going to be in Flash, but I want to be able to update one page (sort of a news/blog page) without having to edit the Flash file every time. I'm assuming the easiest way to do this would be to set up either a scroll pane or a text box and pull the text in from a .txt file. That way I could continue to add on to the .txt file, and Flash would always pull in the current version. So, my issues are:
1. I have no idea where to start with the code for something like that. Is it a LoadVar? Do I physically put a scroll pane or a text area in the frame and put the action on that, or do I put the action on the frame and have it call up a text area component?
2. Will the text scroll automatically, or is that something else I would have to add in? I plan on adding to this text file for awhile, so it could end up being a lot of text over time.
3. Would I be able to format the text in the .txt at all? For instance, if I hit enter to put in a paragraph break, would that register once it's pulled into Flash, or would I have to put in an html paragraph break or something? That may be a dumb question, but as I said, I'm not exactly fluent in ActionScript (or any other programming language for that matter).
I'm having a problem in the input answer textfield where if the user presses return the cursor goes onto another line then if they click on the check answer button it will count the answer as wrong because of the extra spacing. Does anyone have some code that would disable the return key functionality?I realise that changing the textbox to single line would prevent this but it does look messy if a long phrase is entered.
I have a multiline text input field used as a message area on a form (sending mail through a PHP doc). When I hit return to start new paragraph in that field and the form content is send and received at other end everything after that return is lost?
I'm making a preloader right now and i want to list kb load, kb total, percent complete and all that jazz in 1 multiline text box like this: Total KB: 100KB Loaded: 56Percent Complete:56when write all this data into the var for the text box how to I force it to go to the next line?
I am trying to create a scroll text box with two columns appetiser menu. The dimensions are 675 px wide and it doesn't matter what the length is as the scroll text box should be able to scroll down as much as needed, but the width is important. I have arranged the text in the scroll text box as so -
im using a custom scrollbar class, but instead of scrolling content like bitmaps i want to scroll the text inside a text box. what parameter do i use to edit or get the scroll position of a dynamic textbox?
How do I convert a multiline of text from an input box into a single line of text except I would put a string of characters to replace the carriage return?
I need to add a hard return in a dynamic text field with a variable in it. Right now the box is called status_text and it is set to Multiline.the action script reads:
Presently I have created 2 dynamic buttons. When I click on them I want them to return the value of a string into a dynamic text field. I am doing this using only as.....no timeline. Right now they are returning the value of sqaureMC and circleMC. How to I get them to add value of string?
If it's possible to restrict hard returns in text input fields? I've tried something like this: my_txt.restrict="^u0013", and a bunch of variations thereof, but nothing seems to keep the Enter key from doing it's thing. Second best would be to traverse through a string a user has entered and replace hard returns with a space or dash, but again I've had no luck looking for or I've tried entering text and hard returns into a dynamic textfield set to input, but when I try this: var n:Number = my_txt.indexOf(" ")... trace("n: "+n) //traces "n: -1"
When the user hits enter, their input is to be compared to an existing input, then stored if there is no match. The problem is, the file is storing the "enter" key as well, so the database input looks like this:
word/r
instead of just
word
Code: //user presses enter to enter their tag stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkTag); function checkTag(evt:KeyboardEvent):void {
