ActionScript 2.0 :: Copy And Paste Text Into Another Textfield - Can't Make A Line Break
Mar 7, 2008
I have this information that is pulled in from a PHP database and displayed in a textfield within flash which works fine BUT when I go to copy and paste that text into another textfield (a note facility) it then means I can't make a line break. I've tried all sorts with the text field and can't see any reason why it wouldn't allow it. Is there something about different text formats that mucks it up?

I am looking for a technique to disable copy/paste in a input TextField. I've seen some extravagant ideas such as hypotesize the maximum human type speed and reject everything typed above this speed.

I have a created one complex button that I intend to use more than one. When I copy-paste the buttons in CS3 and try to change the text of just one, the text of every buttons is changed.I right-click on the button and select "duplication symbol" to change the features of the button independantly of the others. However the text never gets duplicated and all of my buttons show hte same text.

I'm working for a client that needs me to put a lot of information into flash. He had someone do all the typing and all that in word, with formating and I went through and changed text colors where needed, and now when I'm trying to put it all into flash, it doesn't take any formatting at all. No indents, none of the bold settings, and none of the color settings. I really can't re-do all of the formatting, it would take ages and ages. There must be some way to get this formatting into flash from word (actually using a free program called bean, because i can't even get a copy/paste from word to work at all)

But again, a little more descriptive. I have a editable text section set up like
Artist - (Editable text section)
Your email - (editable text section)
Link - (Editable text section)
(send) - Sends to my email
And I want to make it so people can copy a paste a link from lets say you tube on to it.
I have the text in TLF format to allow it so I can change the color of the input box where the text is located. (Because I do not know how to do it on classic) how to make the box color of the editable text section a different color other then white? (If its a problem.)
Whenever I try to copy and paste as is it shows up but its in a different text style, and its hidden. (That may just be because my text box is black as well.) but i'd still like it to have the same text style when you do paste.)

I want to be able to write a paragraph in a textfield, and then click and hold, or do some similar gesture, and have the entire paragraph selected. I'm then going to drag it (using bitmapdata or whatever) to another textfield.
In order to do this, I need to be able to detect where a given paragraph ends. So I'm trying to do that with the following code, which searches for " " in the text.
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am using a Text Field as an Input for password, I set the displayAsPassword to true, and it shows * instead of chars, but I still can copy the content and paste on another Text Field to see what Ive tiped! In the Adobe AS3 manuals its says that the copy and cut should be disabled automatically but its not!! I am using Flex Open Source, may it be a bug?

in Flash CS4 I have static text like: Line1 and line2 It's in 9 point Arial Regular as a device font. If I set the line spacing below 3.9 the second line dissappears from the compiled SWF file. It still shows in the FLA file. The same thing happens at 6pt but NOT at 5pt or less.

When a Dynamic Multiple line text field is used in Flash CS3, it has a very annoying feature that auto inserts a line break at the end of inserted text. It also auto inserts a line break if no text is entered too.
I'm having a problem with this because the text is being saved from flash to a text file on the desktop. With every multi-line text field there's a nasty looking line break.
Any way of "turning off" this auto-line-break-at-the-end feature?

Our users want to copy and paste some rows from an Excel spreadsheet, or a chart generated in Excel, into a text box within a Flex application.It would be ok for it not to be fully functional, like an ActiveX object, embedded in the flex app. If it converted it to a static image, that would be fine. But I don't know of any Flex component that supports this.

I've found a couple of solutions to the line break problem where you end up with two carriage returns even though you only have one in an external .txt file, but they haven't worked.Here's my AS code:
var textRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("delete.txt");
var textLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
textLoader.load(textRequest);[code]......
I've tried both <br /> and %0D, but neither of them give me a single line break, they do nothing, and the single line breaks in the txt file give me two line spacings.I've tried setting HTML rendering both on and off for the dynamic text box.

I've got a dynamic html text field in flash which pulls content from an XML file, which is being generated by a CMS using CK Editor. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, but flash represents a <br/> tag with a space that seems more fitting for a <p> tag, and a <p> tag renders with about double that amount. How do I control this? I've tried specifying margins in the flash css file, but it has no effect. Is there something I can declare in the actual actionscript code?
