View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Text Disappearing From Textfields?
Oct 12, 2009I'm working on an interactive poetry project. I have 49 textfields displayed in a 7x7 grid. The properties are stored in an array. Here is the code for that. For the purposes of demonstration I place the character "S" as text in each field. This code works as intended.
var instances:Array = [];
for (var i:int = 0; i < 49; i++) {
var j_inst:TextField = new TextField();
j_inst.text = "S";
[code]....
The problem occurs when I want to change the text. When it's triggered the text simply disappears. I have no idea why and I'm running out of ideas. I've tried without the embedded font but to no avail. Changing other text properties like instances[j].x works but whenever I change the text I lose it.
function ChangeText(e:TimerEvent):void {
for (var j:int = 0; j < 49; j++) {
instances[j].text = "X";
}
}

View 4 RepliesIDE :: Text In Textfields Randomly Move?
Nov 2, 2009This happends in a *quite heavy* flashproject at work. And what's even more interesting is that it doesn't happend every time. It seem's to be at random. What happends is that text in textfields would move ~1px in X or Y. Have anyone else encountered this?
I thought that it was the layout code that sometimes was updated but no luck with that. And it is not that the text is getting reset either. But it seem's to happend on mouse-input ( press / onRelease ).
This has been tested on different computers and it moved on all, nut in different ways.

ActionScript 2.0 :: One Dynamic Text Var Split Across Multiple TextFields?
Dec 12, 2009I have two text fields, textL and textR, that read like a book with a specific height and width. Currently I have the external .txt/.php set up variables for each page. Example of book.txt :Code:&page1=Hi this is page one.&page2=And this is page two.I am looking for ideas on how to approach using just one variable which is split at the absolute end of textL with the rest of the variable or string loading into textR. Basically, automating the split of the text when it runs out of space in each field.
View 3 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic TextFields' Text Becomes Invisible When Loaded Into Another MC?
Feb 23, 2010I have inherited a huge application (several thousand lines of code spanning roughly 40 files) to which I must add some functionalities. Now I haven't even started on modifying the code yet because of a problem when loading the Flash file. The Flash files represent a whole website "creator" or "manager" depending on how you see it. It allows end-users to add buttons, images, text fields, etc. inside which other buttons/images/texts can be added. Basically, it's some kind of WYSIWYG editor. I did not create this but I agreed to work on it for some time if I can get it working.
There is a main file, aptly named index.swf, which loads other files (the website file, or the text editor file, etc.) according to what the user is trying to do. If a user is simply viewing the website, then it displays the website. If a user is modifying the website (after authentication), it displays the website AND a management interface, which allows the user to add, modify or remove controls on the site.My problem is that all TextFields display their content (the text) properly when the website is displayed but they display nothing when the management interface is displayed. In other words, a user viewing the website will see all texts in it; a user modifying it will not.
The way this works is that the main SWF (index.swf) creates an empty movieclip for the website and loads the website (another SWF) inside it. Then it creates other movie clips and loads other SWFs inside them for the management interface.The TextFields inside the website SWF contain the appropriate text and have an appropriate font set up (I am able to display it using Alert.show) but their textHeight and textWidth properties are 0, which to me is not normal.

View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: TextFields Filled From A XML?
Nov 11, 2010I've recently been trying to rebuild a project we did at work so that we'd have a better and more flexible architecture for future projects. So far all is done, and work great, but I've been wanting to make the text we use (and we use a lot) easier to modify, so I thought having it outside my Flash/ActionScript files would do it. That way, I can change the text and have it working without having to recompile.
Unfortunatly, I've noticed that having the text in a .txt file puts random linebreaks which I really don't like, but XML severely limits what characters we can put in our text (no " < and so on, unless I'm missing something). Not to mention linebreaks would/could be a pain in an XML.
So, I'm wondering if you guys would have any ideas on how to do this, or even tips on how to do it in an XML or txt file that would work.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Some TextFields Not Showing?
May 9, 2011Basicly I'm adding dynamicaly sprites and textfields, which i populate from xml, in for loop. I'm building sort of table, so for every sprite, I'm adding new data in textfields. I've loaded xml and passed data to 2 xmllists, both traced and doing fine... Later on I add data from xmllist to array which then I'm looping in for loop.
Problem is that from 1st xmllist, 6 out of 7 textfields are visible, 1 can't be found nowhere :/ from the 2nd xmllist only 1 out of 4 are visible...
I've tried everything, tracing them returns that they are visible, on good position, filled with text, contrasted color from background...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Link 2 Textfields To Each Other?
Apr 4, 2006I want to link two textfields, so that if the first one is fille the text continues in the second textfield. The text is loaded from a xml file. One option would be to use html tags so the text wraps around the picture, but as you'll see in the attached image, the picture has a border around it, so it will be hard for the client to update it.I know flashloaded has a component, but as far as I can see it only works for columns, in the past I had found another component that did what I want, but I can't seem to find it anymore, not on the net and not in my backups.
