i add sound to Particular letters in dynamic text box in flash8.
i am having a input box in which i entering some text. If the text is "HI" and i am displaying it in the dynamic output box when a button is clicked. now i need the sound to be played when the mouse goes over the letter "i". i can change the letters. similarly i need for the letter "A" also.
I have an app that generates text from the user's input (dynamic text box).The user is allowed to use Danish letters like '�' (the 'a' with the ring above / å). My problem is that the top of the ring above the 'a' is cut off by the upper part of the text box. So, I want the text in the dynamic text box to move down a little. But as we all know, dynamic text cannot be vertically aligned in the properties of the text box. So, what to do?
View 1 RepliesI think that I have properly embedded the Verdana font (see image below). However, in my Flash game, dynamic text fields do not show certain letters, such as X and J. What am I missing?
View 8 RepliesI have just been upgraded from some previous version of flash to CS5. I have dynamic text fields that now do not show certain letters. For example "OK" shows up as "O" but "Ok" work. "SUPPLE" appears as "SPPLE". Some numbers fail to show up as well. When I trace the value of the text box all looks OK.
View 5 RepliesUsing CS5, and certain letters simply won't show up in my dynamic text field. Not even a blank shows up, they just get stripped out. 'g' and 'v' are two of the letters, so the string 'v testing' shows up on the stage as 'testin'.
It doesn't seem to matter if I start with the string already in there, or add it dynamically. Here are the settings, but they don't really seem to matter either, I've experimented:
Classic Text
Dynamic Text
Ariel
Regular
Anti-alias for animation
Single line
i use a dynamic text that gets from a database some text and i would like to be able to show not all of the text but for example the first 80 letters of this text..
How can this be done ? i am searching quite a lot to find something...
To make the picture more clear i have a big text in database that i load it in flash.
First i have to show a description of this text wicht is about 80 letters of this text in a dynamic text and when the user chooses to "read more >" it shows all the text i have load....
Can anyone give a tip or a tut so i can count the text and for the description to show only the number of letter i want??
Does anyone know if it's possible to reformat dynamically loaded text into only capital letters?
View 2 Repliesi have a dynamic text field where an array controls a dynamic text box where the keypad reps diff numbers ie kpad1, 2 and so on. When I try to use letters it doesnt work, im assuming there has to be a nNumb equivalent for usung letters?
View 3 RepliesI am having problem with the text tool on flash version 8 the problem is that I am seen some blur letters when I preview my swf on explorer using dreamweaver version 8. I trying to find out what could cause the blurring the properties of the text is arial size 10 and verdana size 10. For example the period on the small i in some words look different.

View 1 RepliesI have a dynamic text box that loads different external html files that scroll with buttons. When I load a new html file, it starts at the same point that the previous file was scrolled to. I need to reload the text box so that the new file starts at the top.
View 1 RepliesI had a form working fine at [URL] and then I edited something that made it screw up. I have been poring over the code but I can't figure out what I did wrong.look at the Contacts page and tell me if you can discern what would cause the lettering in the dynamic text boxes.
View 1 RepliesI have a dynamic text box with the instance name "output" and three buttons (btn_A, btn_B, btn_C). What I want is when you press a button the corresponding letter should appear in the text box. What I have so far is this:
Actionscript Code:
//btn_A:on (release) { ausgabe.text = "A";}
Works fine, but what do I have to do when I want to spell something, e.g. "ABC"?

View 8 RepliesI am facing a problem with loading dynamic data through XML in Flash. I have 09 text fields which are taking data from XML file and if for example there are 05 News then rest of 04 input boxes displays "Undefined" in Flash at the front side. I am using following code which gives me Undefined error:
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
[code].....
dynamic text field, which displays a txt file.
If I hardcode the file name in the code, then it works fine. This is on the first frame of my movie, which holds the dynamic text field.
Code:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function(success)
{

Is there a trick to defining url's for dynamic text fields? Because if I hardcode the path from the server, it works locally, but again not on the server..
I have searched and tried different things for hours now.It has been a while since I have used Flash and I can't seem to remember.I have a movie embedded and I am passing a variable to the root movie for it to play when the embedded movie is complete. I know the variable is getting passed because I am displaying the value in as dynamic text but the parent movie will not play. This is what I have:
stop();
row = 0;
if (row == 1) {[code]..........
I know there is a way to tell the parent movie to play from the embedded movie by using TellTarget but I would like to find out why this doesn't work.
A have a big chunk of dynamic text (from a db). From this text i am making a .pdf. So i would like to limit the amount of outputted text as a page can run out of space.
I have tried to do it with search and replace. But the problem is that it counts only characters instead of characters in combination with whitespace and the number of lines.
There is space for 100 characters/spaces on each line, and a total of 38 lines on one page.
So i am thinking of something like this: * count all new lines represented by
* count all characters/whitespaces dived to the number of lines to check if this fits the number of (as it uses wordwap)
Anyone with bright ideas on how to approach this?
(btw. TextField.maxChars will not work as it's dynamic text...)
I decided that this was okay but I wanted to change it so text/staff etc.would update dynamically from a text file. Got this working and moved on to simple alpha tween animation.I have several dynamic buttons that fade onto the stage perfectly. When the user selects a button a variable is loaded which updates the adjacent dynamic text box (within a MC). However, if I try to tween this text box, it goes to full alpha if I place stop() in the last keyframe.If I remove stop() it will loop and display correctly.
View 5 RepliesThe desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
basically i simply want to give the option of turning of the sound in my flash via a button (If you press it sound goes mute, press it again sound unmutes) I searched around in the tutorials but i could only find (for this purpose) complicated pan sound control stuff.
View 1 RepliesI was thinking that it may be possible to create a primitive, yet usable actionscript based text to speech system for Flash movies (One that is platform independent).
Is it possible to right a series of actionscript commands that would play a collection of certain sound files based on what word or words the user has entered?
For example:
If the user types "Red Pen"
Can actionscript tear apart those two words and play sound files "Arr", "ee", "Dee", "Pee", "ee" and "EN"?
If it is possible, and if someone could help me out on it, then I'll start figuring out what phonetic sounds I'll need to record and program, and see if I can't build a simple text to speech program for flash movies.I have no immediate commercial application for it, and I don't plan on one.So if I can pull it off it'll be free to everyone, source code and all. Of course, it may be in my voice, but it shouldn't be hard to take what I plan to do and use it as a template for anyone else's voice recordings.
I'm trying to make something that will show up in a dynac text field something like this:"[variable1] text text text [varibale2] text text text"I've linked the dynamic text field to a variable "resu" and set it to:var resu = variable1 + "text text text text" + variable2 + "text text text"The only problem is that when I make the variables random, they don't change
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to add to the front and back of a word in a string based on the letters it starts with.
For example if I had a string "I think http://www.facebook.com/ is better than http://twitter.com" it would look for the instance of "http://" and give me "I think <b>http://www.facebook.com/</b> is better than <b>http://twitter.com</b>"

View 2 RepliesI have a script that plays a sound on that keyframe. You see, the movie loops. So it keeps hitting that keyframe and the sound keeps playing over and over again. How do I stop this? what kind of script? I want the sound to still loop when it's over, but I dont want it to play again on that keyframe. Only when it's over.
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way a user could click a button to record a sound that would be stored to a sound clip and played back by the click of a button?
In other words, can I dynamically record a sound from my mic into a sound clip in an .swf?
