ActionScript 2.0 :: Created Dynamic Text Field Using LoadVars?

Sep 22, 2005

I have html text being loaded into an Actionscript created dynamic text field using LoadVars, and any line within the text which contains a bullet point or an accented character displays in bold. The txt file containing the html text has been saved as Unicode in order to display the characters. Cannot work out why this is happening

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using A Loadvars To Change A Text Field With Buttons?

Jun 29, 2007

I'm using a Loadvars to change a text field with buttons, and would like a transition between the text field changes. I have an MC for the transition that moves a block to cover the text at label "up" and one to come down, revealing the new text at label "down". so i did

Code:
btn_mc.onRelease = function(){
transition.gotoAndPlay("up");
field_txt.text=text.text1;
transition.gotoandPlay("down");
}

but the problem is that all those actions happen at once, the text changes before it is covered and the transition MC spazzes out because it doesn't know which to goto first. Is there I can set this function up to be more ordered, so it plays "up" and THEN loads the text, and THEN goes down.

AS3 :: Setting A Dynamic Position For A Text Field Relative To Another Dynamic Text Field

Dec 8, 2010

I'm creating an XML-driven pie chart in AS3 with 2 text boxes in each pie slice. Both text fields are dynamic in the sense that they are populated by the XML doc and then told where to place themselves in the AS3. I've got them both using the same x and y position to place themselves at the moment (which of course puts them right one top of each other), but I'd like to make one of the fields (which acts like a label or a title to the larger number and % text field) place itself in a particular spot around the other text field. The result I'm looking for is to have the smaller "title" text field appear approximately 5 pixels above and left-justified to the larger "percentage" field.

Anyway, here are two sections of code that I've currently got. The first chunk, for the Tags portion, sets the position for the "percentage" text field using a good old x and y method. The second chunk, for Titles, is setting the position for the smaller "title" text.

//evaluate tags
private function evaluateTags():void{
for (s=0; s

ActionScript 2.0 :: Pass Text From Form Text Field To A Flash Dynamic Text Field?

Feb 3, 2007

Currently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:

Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}

Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.

Actionscript 3 :: Change The Content Of A Regular Text Field Created With The Text Tool In Adobe Flash CS5?

Nov 21, 2010

I have made a movie clip which I export to ActionScript 3.

In this movie clip I have drawn a text field (area? well TEXT) using the plain "Text Tool".

After selecting the text, and after I have entered "0" to be displayed, I edit its properties. It's Instance Name, defined at the very top of the list I have written "score". The text engine is TLF Text and the text type "Read only".

When I have made a instance of the movie clip using AS3 I can't get the value of the text instance named "score" - when calling something like trace(getChildByName("score")) in the constructor I just get null.

I want to be able to get the value of the text "score", and I would also like to change its value.

Just how do I get the value from ActionScript? I don't want to have to create the text progamatically and position it, and I doubt that I have to.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Field From An Input Text Field

Dec 16, 2010

What I'm trying to do is to write something in an input field and then it should show up in a dinamic field. I can make this happen, but the problem is that the dinamic field shows its new text in the same format as the Input field. For example, the input text is written in TimesNewRoman and the dinamic text is in Arial, but when the dinamic text shows the input, the text is still in TimesNewRoman when I want it to be in Arial.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Send Data From Dynamic Text Field On Stage To Dynamic Textfield In Mc?

Sep 28, 2010

I have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.

-input1 is for quantity

-input2 is for page count

When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Dynamic Text Field Changes Colors But Bullets Don't For Html Text

Oct 26, 2010

I'm trying to use a dynamic text field to pull in html text that contains a bulleted list. Easy enough, that works. But the bullets dont take on the color assigned to the field. I've tried putting it in the html text and also using NewTextFormat and neither work. Can someone help me. This should be a simple fix, but I can't find it... I just want my text and bullets to both be white.
 
Simple code below. Using html text inside the flash document and having a dynamic field on the screen named txt. Code should turn text and bullets green, but it doesn't work, only text turns green
 
this.txt.html = true;
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();my_fmt.color = 0x00FF00; // hex value for green
this.txt.htmlText = "<P> This is the first paragraph</P><BR><UL><LI>Bullet 1</LI><LI><BR>Bullet 2</LI><LI><BR>Bullet 3</LI><LI><BR>Bullet 4</LI><LI><BR>Bullet 5</LI></UL>";this.txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);

Professional :: Dynamic Text Field Not Displaying Text Even When Font Is Embedded?

Jan 16, 2011

So, I have some basic actionscript code.  It's a legacy site, so I'm using AS2.  The line of code simply does this:
 
myField.text = "some text"
 
So, I select the text field on the stage, then ensure the font is embedded.  All the glyphs I want are checked, but then when I compile and test, the fonts don't show up when the code is executed.  Instead, the textfield is blank!  What happened?!  Where did the text go?
 
I should mention that the .swf which I compile is loaded into another parent .swf during runtime.  If that parent .swf does not contain embedded fonts, is that why it's broken?

Actionscript :: Flash Displaying Weird Text In A Dynamic Text Field?

Mar 2, 2011

var ct:TextField = TextField(getChildByName("Temperature"));
ct.text = "Hello world";

What ACTUALLY appears is this: So... The H, Ls, and D are gone. Mysteriously. Without warning. I am sitting here utterly confused. Is this just me?

PS. The text field is set to Myriad Pro Bold, a font on my computer, so it isn't like it's a font problem.
