ActionScript 2.0 :: Unable To Highlight The Particular Word Which Is Searched?
Jul 6, 2010
I am doing one search option in Flash. Where i have a list of 30 people. And i have a virtual keyboard. If anyone click one any letter in that virtual keyboard it ll search the name start with that letter and so on.
Everything is working fine. But what i want is : I want to highlight the letter they are searching that mean if the name is JOSEPH MARG
And they typed JOS , JOSEPH MARG will be listed and at the same time i want to highlight JOS in JOSEPH MARG.
I am able to list it but unable to highlight the particular word which is searched.

I'm using the code below to search the text in a textarea for a string entered in a textinput. I'm trying to highlight the string in the textarea after it's been searched for. I assume the way to do this is selectRange(). I'm not sure how to find the endIndex for the second parameter of selectRange(). Below is what I have:
protected function searchBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
text = mainTextField.text;[code].....

I used to have a little text panel (that sat with the color, swatches, and align panels) that I was able to open up and edit text size, color, underline, etc with. It had a much better text editing ability then the properties panel, seeing as the properties panel does not even bother to allow me to underline text or to highlight and edit a single word in a whole text box. Now I don't have it, I can't find the damn thing anywhere, and I want it back. How can I get it?

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?

system to browse offline howeverthis doesn't work correctly for any less then ActionScript 3. Whenyou highlighted a word in the past such as "null" it use to pull upthe word and the info in all the books. Now all I see is a webbrowser that doesn't do this for me. I mean who sits there atadobe's end and thinks up of ways to slow someone down like this??How can you remove the corequick linking from the program.Number 1 not everyone is on AS3 and some of us still have to updateAS2 code.

I modified the loadBar from one of the popular preload scripts out there. What I am making is a progressbar, sorta like the ones you see in movie previews. But it doesn't seem to o work quite right. Here's what I have: interface.swf - dynamically loads the movie.swf's into itself and will control the movie (when I get around to it). it has the loadBar object

I am encountering a problem in my app only when it is run in flash player 10.1.85.3. Some earlier player versions I have tried are working fine.From what I can tell it seems related to the following:
Quote:
from here: h[url].....
When searching for objects (not strings) in Dictionary objects using the 'in' operator, if the object is not found in the Dictionary object, it will be searched for in the delegate objects. With 10.1, the toString operator will be called on the Object if not found in the Dictionary. This can cause problems with Proxy objects who need to define the callProperty function or it will generate a RTE. ...what it means "it will be searched for in the delegate objects"?

I'm trying to do some animation in Flash, and for some reason, just out of the blue, I managed to switch on the highlight box that turns up around all marks you make with the paintbrush. I found the option in the preferences window to change the colour, so I swapped it to the background colour so the box is slightly less intrusive, but it's still pretty distracting when im trying to draw. How do I turn it off?
EDIT: Also I have noticed i can only 'fill' a shape with the fill tool if it was a complete shape made with a single line. So for example if i were to draw a circle and then in my second brushstroke i were to draw a line across the centre and then apply the fill/paintbucket tool to the circle, it would fill the entire circle rather than the section before where the line crossed it. Is this related to the 'box' issue?

I have a simple shape, e.g. rect, circle, polygon, in a movie clip that I want to highlight, via AS3, when it is clicked. I thought I could just turn off the stroke using alpha of 0 and then turn it back up to act as the highlight but have been unable to find any way to do this. I was able to change the alpha for the entire mc but can't find a way to access the strokes of the shape.If it is just a rectangle or circle I can use the info from the shape to draw the highlight but when it gets more complicated I don't know how to find the borders of the shape.

In my code, when a user clicks on a button, I set the alpha of the button to 50 and set enabled=0. This works to essentially disable and grey out the button. The problem is that even though the button has been disabled, it still sits in the over state until the user moves the cursor off the hit area... Funny, no?
Since you can't tell a button what frame to go to, how do I get it to go back to its up state (without recreating all my buttons as movieclips and doing the whole thing manually)?

Very bizarre issue here: For whatever reason, my datagrid will not highlight items as I roll my mouse over them. Instead, the highlight bar just remains static on the last entry in the datagrid. I know I can still select items as I have written methods that respond to the selection. [code]...

I am pretty good at making games, but I do not know how to do this: making it so that when you click the mouse, hold it, then drag it to another position, a box appears. Does anybody know what I am talking about? Here, minimize down to your desktop and try it. Left-click, hold, then move the mouse around. See that highlight box it creates? I'm wondering if there is a way you can do that in Flash.My Flash version is Macromedia Flash 8 Professional with ActionScript 2.0. I need to do this box thing because I am making a StarCraft
