ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Inside Component Not Working
Feb 9, 2010
I'm trying to make a UI editor and I'm using a color picker component I found online. I've tried a couple different color picker components but they all seem to have the same issue. If I put an instance of the component on the stage and run the movie, it works fine. The text showing the current color (in hex) as well as any button labels show up and all is well. If I take that same component and put it in another movie clip and put THAT mc on the stage, all is still right with the world. However, if I give that mc a linkage ID and load it using an attachMovie call, all text is blank. I thought it may have to do with embedding, but the button labels are static text, so that shouldn't be an issue.

I have two components. One is called "InsideComp" and one is called "OutsideComp". OutsideComp has InsideComp as one piece of its component, and in my main MXML file, I have embedded an instance of OutsideComp. How do I access a public variable of InsideComp within my main MXML file?In Actionscript, I could just do something like:OutsideComp.InsideComp.valToChange = 5; But I dont know how to do it in MXML. I know this is probably an easy question.

I created a custom MXML component, TurboContent, that extends the NavigatorContent class:
<s:NavigatorContent xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
[Code].....
In this case, the 'myButton' component never shows up, but all the elements of the base component do (3 buttons and a datagrid).

When 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.

I am creating a custom component in Flex with extends the BorderContainer class, and I would like to be able to place additional content within the tagset when I use it in my main application, like this:
<components:CustomComponent title="Hello">
<s:Label text="If you have one enter it below:"/>
<mx:Spacer height="15" />
[Code]....
This works just fine, except that my component definition had some additional things inside of it, such as a <s:Label/> and styling, which is replaced by the content within the tagset above when I go to use it.
If I do not put anything within the tagset, the content that was originally in the component is not replaced.
Is there a way that I can simply append additional content inside of the component when I go to use it, instead of it being replaced each time?

How do I say an MXML component is inside some package? Well, it's in a different folder... I know how to do it ActionScript... But when I do in MXML I don't declare the package explicitly because I don't know how, and when I call it to my application, it states that The prefix "package" for element "package:Component" is not bound.

I'm using Flex with Cairngorm framework.I have a custom component which I create like this:
<components:FriendSearchPaginator id="searchResultsPaginator"
paginationElement="{_model.findFriendsPaginationElement}"
visible="{_model.friendsSearchResultsPaginatorVisible}" />
Where the findFriendsPaginationElement is inside the model locator:
public var
[Bindable]
findFriendsPaginationElement:PaginationElement = new PaginationElement();
Inside the custom component I have button that uses a property of findFriendsPaginationElement object:
<s:Button id="previousButton"
label=" prev "
click="paginateSearchResults(false)"
enabled="{_model.findFriendsPaginationElement.more_previous}"/>
But I get a warning from Flex that the binding wouldn't work that way and it doesn't. It works the first time I load up the component but every time I change findFriendsPaginationElement it doesn't reflect on the component. Do you know how I can go about doing this? (making changing a value in the binding variable changes the status of an element inside a component?)

I have created a Box component and inside it I have more then 2-3 labels placed. I need to drag the whole box component and move to different place at canvas. Technically Box type is a container type but I need to keepit all the labels inside and want to move it. Is there any way we can do that? UPDATED : Can we create any external component that allow us to drag the main box?

I've developed a component which is a combination of a few items (canvas, labels, etc...) but when I try to bind it to a variable such as: {stationXML.getItemAt(1).AAA.@value}, it doesnt work. Before I combined all the items in a component, they were all in the main MXML file at which time they worked. Not sure if it matters, but the "stationXML" arraycollection variable is declared inside the file "Station.as".

I googled for almost a day to find the answer to my question: [URL]. This almost works (and is a great solution), but the solution doesn't work when I do:
1). Copy and paste multiple-line texts.
2). Write long and scroll the texts.
I also found another working example at: [URL]. (The autocomplete prompt appears when you press ctrl+space right at the caret's position). But an email from its author says he uses monotype fonts to calculate individual character's location. Is there a way to get multi-line input from a textfield?

I have the following component in an AIR application from Flex 4:
<mx:HTML id="viewObject"
x="10" y="42" width="634" height="313"
location="http;//localhost:8080/mypage.php" />
Now I want to run a javascript when the page loads but the javascript isn't inside the target page. I want to run the following javascript:
javascript:alert('Hello world.');
I tried approaching it by setting the location property again to the javascript after the page has loaded like below.
<s:Button x="10" y="10" label="Button">
<s:click>

why I can't get the width of a Sprite when it has components in it.
For example
Code:
var foo:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(foo);
var comboBox:ComboBox = new ComboBox();
[Code]....
I'm assuming the component possibly isn't set before I'm trying to get the width?

I need to get access to the buttons inside an flvplayback skin. After a bit of googling I've come across several solutions for AS2 but it doesn't seem to function in a similar way. I know skin_mc is a private function of the flvplayer but I can't for the life of me figure out how to access it as an object that retains its properties all I get back is a string with the path to the skin swf.

I feel like I'm walking into a brain surgery symposium to get help opening a box of Band-Aids...I've tried pretty hard to find tutorials about this but no luck. I'm the densest person who's ever dared to start up Flash. I'm making a scheduling utility for students in my online classes, and I went out and found a "Date Picker" component which looks nice. I've downloaded it, but I can't get Flash CS4 to recognize it no matter what I do. The picker came from [URL]
First issue - there are a several different downloads. One contains only a file called Datepicker-v4.4.1.swc with a red envelope icon, the other is version 4.2 (I don't really care which version I end up with). The 4.2 yields a directory containing
[Code]...
I tried to do that, but my directory structure doesn't correspond to that path very well. (I don't have a Local Settings directory, first of all.) Looking for something analogous on my WinXP/CS4 machine I ended up at C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Flash CS4enConfiguration. That didn't have a Components directory so I made one, dropped DatePicker.swc into it, and nothing seemed to happen. (By that I mean, I started Flash, created an AS3 Flash file and opened the components palette, and nothing DatePicker-like was there.)

UILoader is preloaded with p1.jpg.I have written script to allow the button to go to the next picture in the folder like so:[code]But instead of going through all the pictures sequentially it gets stuck on p2.jpg. It only advances after several clicks and then goes back to p2.jpg. Can anyone tell me why it is behaving like this? Thanks.

I have used a gallery component from flashXML.net. The problem is that the component makes internal stage conflict between my project and the gallery component, witch is embedded in my flash. The gallery works perfect, but it makes the scaling of my site totally wrong when I go back from the gallery to the rest of the site. Now I have override the problem by putting this code:Code: Select allstage.scaleMode="showAll"; on the frame where the HOME-button in the gallery is jumping to. The only problem now is that the site is about 20% off center at the left side on some screen resolutions. How I can get all the content perfectly centered?

Okay I have this problem and I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong. Here is an outline of what is happening:1. I have a movie clip that contains two components, a combo box and a check box.2. The combo box has the instance name "comboBox", and the check box has the instance name "checkBox".3. The movie clip is exported for actionscript with the identifier "test".4. I run the following code:
[AS]
attached = _root.attachMovie("test","componentContainer", 1);
attached.comboBox.addItem("A", 1);[/AS]
[code].....
