ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Paragraph Ending?
Feb 8, 2005
I have a problem where I have a flash chat room and the first thing you do is log in with a name. This works. Next it goes to a loading screen that says thank you (name) and the proceeds to a title area where you choose to either chat, check for friends or change your name. Oh and of course exit. These are all working so far, but one prob. When you hit the send btn (button) it puts the text you typed in the text area with your name first. Example: (NAME): (TEXT) Problem is it needs a paragragh space first. And I dont know the script for that.

Is it possible to put a paragraph of text inside a circular (or half circle) shape using xml loaded text via Actionscript 3?
Ideas I have so far:
- format a textfield as center justified and put all the line breaks in manually. Prefer not to do this
- Use a linked textFlow object - not sure how to do this and concerned about the extra 100K added to my final swf
Perhaps there is a class that someone has written.

I have a multi-line dynamic text on the stage. When a large amount of text content (e.g 200 words) appear in the dynamic text (with newline/paragraph spacing), the space between the paragraphs are too large. How do I lessen the paragraph spacing?

I want to be able to display a paragraph where if the text being shown is (say) over 15 lines long, then a link text will appear and if click it will expand.
Example:
This is a long line for here so I need to make more display but I cant so what will (More)... <== this more link will be clicked and the rest will show up below this paragraph expanded to show the rest of it. (Close)... <== this close link will be clicked and the rest of the page will be hidden again.
Can this be done in Flex? Here is a link example done in javascript [URL].

We have a For Loop that duplicates and movie Clip.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
duplicateMovieClip(enemy,"enemy"+counter,counter+1 00);
}
On a hit test we want to remove all the duplicated movieclips. I acomplished this using a new scene with a frame action contianing another For Loop and a remove movie clip action. Hit test true move to new scene play frame action.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
removeMovieClip("enemy"+counter);
}
This worked.Is there a way to put a stop of the For Loop or Put a stop on the Duplicate movie clip?

I made a video in flash which somehow got corrupted, so the fla is no longer usable. Instead of remaking the video, I would like to just snip off the end of the .swf that I published and then probably just play a second .swf immediately after to end it (with replay buttons and a link to a particular website)
My question is: Is it possible for me to cut the .swf by about 3 seconds at the end?

I want to end the sound of an externally loaded swf in a child movieclip, from within a movieclip (one level below root) when the user moves from that frame in that root level mc. Problem is that there are so many ways to exit that frame containing the (2 down from root) mc with its loader: nxt/prev frm, jump w/i that mc, or jump to another root level mc. Is there a frame script to get the effect of the old onExitFrame() that I can put in the top level mc or the mc with the loader that will know when the user has moved? (so I don't have to put stop code at every possible destination for every possible loaded swf?) I'm still new to AS3, so am limited to frame scripts. I don't even know where to put the public classes some possible answers talk about building.

I've just created my first flash animation. It's about 10 seconds. The only problem is that it loops continuously. In the "using Flash for the first time" lesson by Jen deHaan (great lesson1), she mentions that you can drop this code in "stop();" and she also recommends to add all such code to a single frame to make it easy to find. However, she does not mention how to add code to a frame.
Likewise, the Help file only discusses stopping the loop for specific "graphics instances," not for an entire scene or movie. I'm sure it's simple. I just can't find it.

I'm about getting crazy over the inconsistency of loading and unloading movies processes.First one or two movies, ok. But after that, I always has my fingers crossed.It's a mixture or simple game and quiz movies. So I have this Main movie as the controller that control about 3 game movies and 16 quiz movies. So, I have these piece of codes in my Main movie timeline:
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (NextMovieOK) {
switch (movieQNum) {

I've been doing Motion in Flash just per Hand doing MotionTween etc. But now I wanted finally to do a motion of a object with Actionscript. I wanted to move a object from one side to the other and let the movement end with a little bounce. Just like in the Example here: [URL]. I have already something which moves the object with slowing down at the end of the movement (onclip even on a MC):
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
zielx=0
_x=300
rate=10
}onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x+=(zielx-_x)/rate
}
How I can let it end with a little bounce effect instead of the slowing down. Just like in the example.

I have been reading Learning Actionscript 3.0 for about 1-2 months now on and off and i have stumbled across a paragraph that I don't quite understand concerning the position of a navigation bar buttons.
Code:
var btnNum:int = 5;
var spacing:Number = 10;
var navBar:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(navBar);
var btn:SimpleButton;
[Code] .....
The current button is positioned horizontally (line 10), offset by the spacing set in line 2, plus the width of the button and another spacing gap for each button in the loop. Therefore, the first button is positioned only 10 pixels to the right of the container's registration point (spacing, plus zero times the sum of the width of the button and spacing). The last button is positioned 10 pixels to the right of the container's registration point plus 4 times the width of the button and spacing. The vertical position is also set, moving the button down 5 pixels. From the above quote, I understand that the button the first button is placed horizontally, but i don't understand what is after it. What the paragraph means and how it does it's position.
