ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Dynamic Text With A Scroll Bar?
Aug 1, 2005
I have a dynamic text content which displays content read from an XML. I have used the UI Component Scroll bar to scroll through content longer than the text field area. To use it so as to scroll as per the content size the control is sent to another frame so as to get refreshed. How ever the scroll appears default at the text area even when there is no need of one.
My application has three frames. on the first frame:
initially at start of the program:
scroller._visible = false; ( scroller is the instance name for the UI
Component scroll )
after the words to display on the text area are extracted from the XML into meaning_txt following is the action provided:

I have a library MovieClip the I am putting into the Scroll Pane. Inside this MovieClip is a Dynamic Text field that I fill with data. I have the ScrollPane on my stage and have used the source, refreshPain and update to try and get the new information from the dynamic text field into the Scroll Pain. To no avail all I get is the orginal text that was in the box when it started.

[URL]. Skip the intro. Then - why this dynamic textbox won't scroll? It's just a normal old multiline, embedded fonts dynamic textbox fed from an xml file that reads a Notepad txt file. It is loading just fine but not scrolling?

Im supposed to make a marquee that has curved dynamic text scrolling through it. I used the displacement map filter for this and it almost works. the only problem is that when the dynamic text field gets to a certain x position, the filter stalls, but the text continues to scroll. Im really at a loss. heres what I got so far: [URL]

There's a scroll bar that controls the dynamic text, but the bar somehow blocks before it reaches the end (bottom). I don't want to make the bar bigger because that way scrolls very very fast. So I want to figure out the issue so I can make the bar as long as I want, according to the quantity of text, to scroll correctly.

I got a problem with the following code:
Code:
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseWheel = function(delta) {
XmlItems.content_txt._y += delta;
} Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);
It works great although it doesn't stop when the text finishes, it just keep scrolling.

I have a textbox that dynamically loads from a txt file. I'm trying to have the text scroll on its own... kindof like movie credits. The problem that I'm running into is that it appears choppy when it scrolls line by line. How would I make it smooth scroll without any user interaction?

I had some dynamic text with a scroll bar and it was working fine. Then I decided to use HTML formatting and bring it in through an external .txt file using the following code:
myLoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars.onLoad = function() {
ContactText.htmlText = myLoadVars.myHTMLdata;
} myLoadVars.load("ContactText.txt");
The text is loading fine except that my scrollbar has now disappeared and you can only see the first few lines of text.

I am doing a dynamical menu they are scroll, with links, I am using as function. If I call an external swf:
function cargaranimacion(animacion){
loadMovieNum(animacion,0)
}
In the text:
<a href='asfunction:cargaranimacion, "proceso_novolen.swf">PROCESO NOVOLEN</a>
<a href='asfunction:cargaranimacion, "polimerizacion_estructura.swf">POLIMERIZACION Y ESTRUCTURA</a>
And if I am inside a swf, call a label:
function cargaranimacion(animacion) {
gotoAndPlay(animacion);
}
That is ok... But, How I do to accede to a specific label of an external swf?? I want that it loads the animation and begin to it turns from the label that I indicate.

I have created a flash file using XML to populate a dynamic text field. I have a UIScrollBar componant added to my text box to scroll through the XML. The movie works fine both when testing the movie in flash and when I access the file that is stored locally through IE. As soon as I upload the file to my server, however, the scrolling functionailty no longer works. The XML is visible on the site and it is possible to scroll using the mouse wheel; the bar itself, however, appears to be disabled for some reason.

I have a dynamic text box inside a movie clip which is controlled by a vertical cursor bar.If I use the up or down arrows, everything works fine.The middle cursor button works fine in scrolling text as well. However, once use to either end of the scroll bar, the mouse "sticks" to this and continues dragging!!I have looked at this AS for a long time and can't see the problem.

I've created a dynamic text field where I've insert into a lot of HTML code. Since it's too much long I've used a default scrollbar and simply dropped it onto the field so that It's linked to that. When I try it the bar is there but I can just see the upper arrow and the bottom one; the middle part isn't visible and I can't scroll down the HTML content.

I can't get the code to "know" which of the dynamic thumbnails has been clicked (by "know", I mean return an index value, say 0 through 7 if there are 8 projects, that I can use to access that particular project in the array of 8 projects in the rest of the code)... So if the third movieclip thumbnail were clicked, I'd like "2" to come up somehow... I've tried this code, which is kind of lame, I know, based off of the idea of each of the thumbnail movieclips' names ending in their index number:
Code:
//"this" is the button that was pressed; would return a string ending in
//thumberMC_<number of whichever movieclip thumb was clicked>
var: testString:String = this;
[code]....
Lastly, there's a dynamic textfield I'm trying to create that never shows up for some reason. Again, you could see in the FLA (in the "createDrawer" function around line 424).

I'm relatively new to Actionscript, in fact, I just figured out today how to load text from an external source. I have another issue that I'm not sure how to handle. I have buttons for my main nav, a main text box, and a mini text box (both text boxes are loaded dynamically from external files). I want to have the mini text box load new external text files in the main text box. For instance, I have a button for music, which loads a list of songs in the mini text box. I want to be able to click on the name of one of the songs and have it load the lyrics in the main text box. I'm sure it's simple, I'm just new.
