View 1 RepliesA little much put in the title, but my question is just that. I have the following AS3 code for my textarea...
addChild(Texta1);
Texta1.alpha = 0;
Texta1.blendMode = BlendMode.LAYER;
[Code].....
Unfortunately, when I start placing text in this text area. Either through code or user input, the text will be placed on a new line after about 80-100 pixels. Yet I want it to start a new line after 320 pixels (it's length).
Is it possible to save text of textarea in some variable or so and with its textformat (more than one color) and then reuse it to replace text in textarea?

View 6 RepliesWhat I need to do is to use 1 XML file to feed different content to 2 different TextArea fields. I know how to use an XML file to feed text content to a TextArea field. I figured out how to use 1 XML file to feed the same text to 2 different TextArea fields and how to use 2 XML files to feed 2 different TextArea Fields but I can't figure out 1 XML feeding 2 different sets of info to 2 different TextArea fields. Is there something I can do in AS to pull different XML tags to different TextFields?

View 7 RepliesDoesn't seem to be working for me. I'm using CS4 Professional version 10.0 Flash IDE (pgraded from Flash8 Pro) and can not get the textArea component to display its selection when it loses focus. I've reduced it down to the simplest FLA file I can: One Input TextField named "input_txt", one TextArea field named "text_area"
[Code]...
I type some text in either box and select it. The TextFied box shows the selection in gray when I change focus to the TextArea, but not the other way around.I've also tried text_area.textField.alwaysShowSelection = true; With and without setting the property of text_area itself.
I just downloaded flash cs5, and its wonderful, specially due the fact its support now RTL languages (we ibeen waiting 11 versions for this)
i want to create an input textarea where the user can type, than publish it as an swf movie. my movie cant use any html code since its gonna be used by Adobe Director at run-time later on.
I have a TextArea on my stage. It is a white rectangle with a border.
Can I change its appearance? Ideally, I would like a transparent background with no border.
I have a text area displaying something, I want to achieve: Some words are rendered as hyperlink in html (blue color with underline), and when mouse hovers there it becomes a hand. When user clicks it, it will invoke a function in AS and pass the words to the callback function.

I'm developing a Flex/AIR application built entirely in ActionScript -- there's no MXML beyond what was originally auto-created.
I need to dynamically generate some kind of editable text-field with high control over formatting. The TLF text fields all seem great, except that I can't get any of them to render on the screen. Due to the nature of the application, they have to be inside a MovieClip, but since I've read that everything must be a descendant of UIComponent, I use UIMovieClip, which is AddChild'ed to the stage.
I'm about to go crazy here, the whole application is in jeopardy over this. I CAN NOT use MXML, and all the 10,000 examples on the internet are MXML. I need to generate these dynamically. I need to generate upwards of 50 fields under one movieclip based on database data. There's no way to hardcode that with MXML. The GUI is very specific about this, and it's the right GUI.
In two days of searching, I can't find a single example in ActionScript, only MXML. I've tried everything that smelled like an example.
Is there some obvious general pointer I'm missing? I'll be happy to post code, but it doesn't make sense because I've been through so many examples.
Does anyone have the simplest possible code for creating any kind of TLF text editing field in ActionScript only (zero MXML), which is then added to a MovieClip or UIMovieClip, which is added to the stage of a desktop AIR application?
Just wondering if it's possible to apply a *.css to a spark TextArea? If so, how?
View 1 RepliesI can't seem to get this to work . I have Googled and have tried different solutions but it stl gives me this compiler error:
Code:
Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 191119: Access of possibly undefined property StyleSheet through a reference with static type fl.controls:TextArea.
Here is the extract of my AS code for using the CSS file:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.text.StyleSheet;
var css:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myStyles.css");
var cssStyleSheet:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet;

What i wanna do is have 2 textinputs, one for your name, and the other one for the times you want the name will be shown in a textarea. And this should happen by pushing a button. So if you type in Jacob in the first textinput, and "3" in the second the textarea should display:
Jacob
Jacob
Jacob.
If you put a carriage return (13) newline (10) sequence into a TextArea, it is automatically converted in the TextArea to two carriage returns. (Did we know this?)
I'm using AS3 as the front end to an Oracle DB (communicating via ASP), and check fields to see if they've been edited (i.e., no longer match what's in the DB and need to be saved). TextAreas assigned the CR-NL sequence inherently never match.
Work Around: After I write variable text from the DB to the TextArea, I write the TextArea.text back into the variable.
i have already loaded a text from a simple notepad file without any problem.. i wanna do the same using an xml file.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to pull data from an XML file into a TextArea to take advantage of the scroll bar capabilities.I have two XMLLists, XListCopy & XListURLs. XListCopy is basically a list of words that need to be on their own line. While the XListURLs are the respective links for those words.Since at the moment, I'm using appendText obviously any links will be merged into one. Is there any way to separate each & make each clickable?

View 1 RepliesWe have a TextArea that is created dynamically reading in XML data with the textFormat set to Arial font as the default. When we publish it the font tag for a subscript and superscript fonts is not displaying even though we have embedded the fonts. It displays
properly if the font is installed.
I have a chat in which when the text area is full and start the scrollbar, the scrolling always go to the top and I want to go to the bottom. I try to use the vPosition but i get errors. This is basically what I want to get. var my_ta:mx.controls.TextArea;my_ta.vPosition = my_ta.maxVPosition;

View 3 RepliesIs there a way to get a TextArea to automatically scroll down when text is added to it?I have had a look around but havent found anything that works.
View 2 RepliesThe scroll policy for the textArea component appears to be "auto", and that works just fine.However, I want to be able to turn it off in certain situations, i.e., not have the scroll bar appear.I do the following which I thought would turn it off but the scroll bar still shows up.
Code Snippet:
myTF = new TextFormat("Arial", 10, 0xFFFFFF,false);
myText_mc.myTextArea.setStyle("textFormat", myTF);
myText_mc.myTextArea.verticalScrollPolicy = "OFF";
myText_mc.myTextArea.horizontalScrollPolicy = "OFF";
How does one customize the text area component ( I mean text font, text size, colour and so on). Nothing like that appears in Component Inspector.
